Feeling that Lu Chen's aura was already extremely weak and seemingly on the verge of collapse, Tan Cang laughed loudly and said, "It seems I've guessed right; there's actually no Protector following this kid!"
Seeing that Lu Chen was already heavily injured and still no Protector appeared, Zou Jingtong couldn't help but wonder, could it really be that, as Tan Cang suspected, Chen Lu truly had no Protector behind him?
But how is that possible?
Chen Lu is, after all, the direct disciple of the Hall Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace. The Hall Master would not leave her direct disciple without a Protector; is this the treatment a direct disciple should receive?
Or did the Hall Master never consider Chen Lu as her direct disciple from the start? After all, the Mysterious Moon Palace only recruits female disciples, and taking in Chen Lu, a male disciple, is a first.
