Lies, sometimes, are necessary.
For instance, when the little white dragon Ao Xu asked Xie Tian if there were any Body Refinement practitioners in the Nine States capable of Shattering Void, Xie Tian's answer.
Initially, Xie Tian thought so as well.
But Xie Ren said, this isn't truly Shattering Void; the aged and frail Po Shan only completed half of it.
The remaining half failed.
The reason for failure wasn't that Po Shan had to choose between Shattering Void and saving his wife.
It was that Po Shan had only the ability to save Ao Xu, and couldn't complete Shattering Void and become a saint physically.
The crux of the matter lay in Po Shan's physical body.
Thus, when Xie Tian, who had been asleep for nearly three months, unexpectedly awoke and discovered his demonic body was brewing some earth-shattering change, he thought of this matter.
"Po Shan's physical body wasn't strong enough?"
