As the golden-red vertical pupil gazed at him, emanating a faint, dignified aura, Zong Chengze's body tensed. He felt as if he were being seen through completely.
Although the feeling vanished almost instantly, that brief moment was enough for Zong Chengze to realize how extraordinary it was.
"This is... Solar Power... That eye of yours is connected to the Sun."
Having said this, he quickly waved his hand before Zhong Ming could respond. "Don't tell me what Cultivation Technique you're practicing or what ability you've gained... And you must never mention this to anyone else in the future."
"If anyone asks, just say you failed to learn anything."
After he spoke, still feeling it wasn't safe enough, he added another warning, "Not even if Yi Yunya asks you. You cannot tell her."
"Yes, Sect Leader!"
Zhong Ming was very receptive to the advice, as this concerned his own life and safety.
