"What we crave—those official positions in the Immortal Alliance—he may not even care about," he continued. "Even though he hides it well, you can tell when someone is truly enamored with power."
He Zhenghao listened intently, his expression serious as he nodded in agreement.
"From what I know, Lord Envoy was actually forced to accept the position as acting lord of Ten Thousand Immortal Island. His mission to rebuild the Immortal City was, in fact, a task thrust upon him," Gao Yuan unexpectedly revealed.
He Zhenghao looked stunned, his eyes wide with surprise. "Is that really the case?"
Gao Yuan nodded. "I’m not sure of the underlying complexities, but thankfully, Lord Envoy managed to complete the task."
"He even changed the fates of many of us along the way."
"Currently, he serves as the 'Secret Envoy,' governing the affairs of the Congyun Sea region. But I suspect he has little interest in directly managing things," Gao Yuan speculated.
"I also believe that, given his remarkable talent, it would be a true waste for him to spend time on mundane tasks."
