Within the stone chamber, the shadowy figure was clearly taken aback and paused before saying, "So it turns out... Jiang Wang has become someone else's chess piece."
The voice from the void replied, "That's why the more talented he is, the more interesting it becomes. The faster he grows, the greater the threat he will pose to Jiang Shu in the future."
"Then, should we just leave him be from now on?" the shadowy figure inquired.
"No, we should still target him when opportunities arise, just not actually kill him," the voice from the void instructed. "Attacking him is helping him, aiding him to step further and gain the trust of Jiang Shu."
"I understand," said the shadowy figure.
"That's all for now. Stay quiet for a while, and don't draw attention," the voice from the void suggested.
After that, in the hollow of the stone disk, the sobbing sound of the wind rose again.
Silence returned to the stone chamber.
...
...
On the grasslands of the Northern Territory.
