Chapter 256: Challenge
Nine Heavens Peak, Lu Chenming's residence.
Lu Chenming was sitting opposite his trusted steward, sipping tea. What they discussed wasn't sect affairs, but rather the future of his only son Lu Yan, who was just thirteen years old.
"Yan'er's cultivation progress has been acceptable recently, but his temperament is somewhat impetuous. He still needs strict discipline. Although the sect has excellent teachers, I want to find him another reliable guide. Do you have any suitable candidates to recommend?"
Between Lu Chenming's brows was a trace of a father's concern.
He held True Disciple status and lacked no resources, but his heir's future, especially the foundation-building stage, couldn't tolerate the slightest carelessness.
After all, such a vast family estate must have successors.
The steward respectfully replied, "Young master is gifted and intelligent with a solid foundation. With proper guidance, he will certainly achieve great things. This subordinate thinks that Instructor Liu from the outer sect is steady and quite patient in teaching disciples. Perhaps he could..."
Before he could finish speaking, somewhat urgent footsteps came from outside. "Senior Brother Lu, there's urgent news!"
Lu Chenming's brows furrowed slightly. He had instructed that unless it was important, he shouldn't be disturbed when handling family matters.
