"Be more attentive?"
"What's there to be attentive about? I don't have the energy for that!"
The yellow-robed old Daoist exclaimed with a sneer:
"Just get this kid into the inner sect as soon as possible. Once he's in there, he'll find his own path."
The long-bearded elder sighed.
"He's such a promising prospect. The efficacy of that Pill was astonishing, and the control demonstrated was perfect—like the work of a master."
"It must be a powerful demonstration of his skill in the Alchemy Dao, a testament to the boy's expertise."
"But not every disciple has a clear path. It's best if we provide guidance…"
"I think that kid's path is very clear!" the yellow-robed old Daoist interrupted.
"Just look at him. You can tell he isn't overly ambitious and that he has his own plans."
"I like disciples like that. They're low-maintenance! I already have a plan, so don't you go meddling…"
...
Bai Mo watched for a long time until he saw Qin Zheng and the others reach a resting spot.
