"Don't worry, the term 'forbidden territory of Donghai' is no joke, you know."
Jiang Ning laughed. He knew Tan Xing wasn't really worried about this. "Besides, you're secretly really powerful and I know that very well."
A gleam flashed in Tan Xing's eyes and he looked even more deeply at Jiang Ning.
"It's fine to pretend anyway. All you old fellows love doing this," said Jiang Ning with a shrug. "It's very important to be low profile, I get it."
He didn't get this at all! Tan Xing couldn't help but curse at Jiang Ning in his heart.
People like Tan Xing did often maintain a low profile and always hid away what they were truly capable of. If Jiang Ning didn't remind him about it, he had nearly forgotten himself.
Martial artists did not compete on who lived more gloriously, but who lived a longer life.
"There are many things I have no choice but to face in this world. I'm carrying the weight of the entire Tan family and the Northern High Kick Sect. I have too much to carry."
Tan Xing sighed. "But I don't have any descendants who can really carry all these things for me.”
He wasn't getting any younger and he didn't know how long more he had to live. He hoped to groom someone to take over before he died.
"When I die, I don't think I can rest in peace either. Sigh.”
Tan Xing looked so deeply at Jiang Ning, it made Jiang Ning feel uneasy.
"Alright, alright, I know what you're trying to say," Jiang Ning got up. "Go back and tell Tan Long to follow me for one year. I guarantee that you'd be satisfied with the results."
Tan Xing's face immediately broke into a huge smile as he nodded and gently stroked his long beard.
"Since you've asked this of me, then surely I can't refuse your offer, right? It's good to give young people a chance. Sure, sure, I'll get Tan Long to follow you for this period of time."
Tan Xing didn't want to look like he was the one asking for a favor, so Jiang Ning let him be and just smiled and nodded.
RIIIING.
Jiang Ning's phone rang.
It was a call from Butler Zhao.
"Professor Lu has made a discovery?” Jiang Ning narrowed his eyes. "I'll be there in a while.”
