Chapter 152

Shadows a great friend. Lam Zaa flashed a thin smile. Weve been friends since young, and he has always been following me around like my shadow.

His words reminded Chui Yim of Lam Ming, his father Chui Tin, and the relationships he formed back at Sallow Continent. Feeling relatable, he sighed. Brother, nothing in this world is certain. He might be with you today, but not tomorrow. You might not even know when you will see him again. Ill stop talking about him on your behalf, brother Lam.

Lam Zaa looked at Chui Yim, startled. It was as if his world was spinning; Chui Yim spoke like an old man with countless life experiences rather than a twelve-year-old. His eyes were filled with loneliness, just as he thought about how nobody would understand him. Moreover, this reminded Lam Zaa of somebody else someone he had always detested.

Faking a smile, Lam Zaa lifted his cup. What brother Chui said makes sense. Lets toast!

His words brought Chui Yim back to reality, who let out a hearty laugh. Yes! To the present!

Lam Zaa continued sipping while Chui Yim drank straight from the jug. Oh yeah, brother. This is our first meeting, so whats with the invitation?

Chui Yim only received a smile in reply. As the current crown prince and future king, the world would be his one day, and Lam Zaa needed to nurture his line-up of aides early on.

It might seem funny to start now, as who knew how long itd take before Lam Zaas succession. However, this was also why the Lam dynasty survived so long. Every genius had the potential to become a terrifying existence, like Tse Man Tin, ancestor of the Tse Clan, who was born ordinary yet extremely talented in battle. The crown prince back then, the current Emperor Lam, selected him as part of his aides to be nurtured. At last, Tse Man Tin became one of the strongest cultivators globally, a secret weapon that the North feared.

Sourcing talented youths to nurture into the next generation of supporters for the Lam dynasty was their tradition, and Chui Yim was the first person Lam Zaa chose.

Lam Zaa only smiled instead of making his intention obvious. He had other plans for Chui Yim, who didnt recognise him. Why not just leave it to fate? I dont hate this experience either, its pretty fresh.

They drank and chatted happily. Chui Yim was slightly taken aback to find out that just like him, the teen read a lot as well. From astrology, alchemy and even medicine, they could chat about anything. Lam Zaa even expressed his opinion on the Outstanding Talent Competitions alchemy and medicine segment.

He took out an ordinary-looking item that didnt seem to be made of gold or wood. This belonged to a gliphist who has passed on, and I used a forging method to store the energliph inside, so it contains enough power to be activated one more time. If brother Lam gets into danger in the future, it might be of some help. I dont have anything suitable on me for a gift, so here you go. Hahaha.

Lam Zaa didnt look down on the item as he accepted it. You can use a gliphists item like this? Thats interesting.

However, it wasnt this ordinary stick that interested him but the theory behind it. Most treasures turned to trash after the gliphist passed on, unless they were superior items like the Thirty-Six Night Lunar Needles that could still be used to a certain extent after the gliphist passed on.

Lam Zaas interest in Chui Yim grew even more.



Lam Zaa sat on the top floor of the inn. The cold night breeze wasnt enough to make him feel cold. Shadow appeared behind him, hesitating to speak. Your highness, I still think that Chui Yim isnt qualified to be part of your team. Hes too careless and noisy

You werent around earlier, so you missed our conversation. Lam Zaa waved his hands. He might look careless, but hes extremely knowledgeable. From our conversation, I discovered that he has a deep understanding of medicine, alchemy, gliphism, forging, and more. Hes not an ordinary person. He will shine even amongst the elite younger generation of the South.

Shadow was stunned. He had never heard Lam Zaa praise someone in such a manner, and he was at a loss on how to reply.

Since Chui Yim doesnt know who I am, let him find out slowly. Ive given him the badge, and the games must go on. Lam Zaa laughed lightly.

At the same time, a loud shout came from outside. Why cant I enter? The five clans support this inn. Do you know who I am? Im Mo-Yun Kit! Disciple of the Divine Doctor and future leader of Southern Ping! How dare you stop me!?

Mister Mo-Yung Apologetic voices could be heard in reply. The top floor was fully booked, and we are just abiding by the rules

Rules? The shouter was heard once more. My words are the rules! Let me see who dares to stop me!
