Lü Zhong's eyes flickered as he mulled something over.
After a moment, he finally made his decision. In a deep voice, he said, "It seems... you know a great deal about ancient secrets. But if you think that alone is enough to make me let you go, you're dreaming."
Ancient secrets concerning Ascension were still too remote for a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
Compared to that, Lü Zhong was more concerned about the threat this person posed.
Bulan, a suspected Divine Witch of the Witch Cultivator path, had easily suppressed Wanmu and his two companions using the Heart-Loss Curse. Lü Zhong couldn't imagine what would happen if a being comparable to a Divinity Transformation Old Monster were let loose in the Southern Barbarian region. There was no telling what kind of chaos he would unleash.
And the Southern Barbarian region was, for all intents and purposes, his domain.
