It has to be said that from the events of the past few days, Xu Yeming seemed a clear-headed and cautious person.
If it were merely to attempt summoning a phoenix from the Classic of Mountains and Seas,
the choice of time and place would have been too impulsive.
Even if Lu Changsheng and the others hadn't come to their aid, it was almost certainly a death sentence.
This was a complete reversal from the disposition Xu Yeming had shown before.
So.
Lu Changsheng guessed Xu Yeming might have another purpose.
And this purpose had to be completed, even if it meant taking the risk of being discovered and losing his life.
"Do you have another purpose?" Lu Changsheng asked.
Hearing Lu Changsheng's question,
Xu Yeming hung his head, seemingly silent.
Lu Changsheng said, "We are now mentor and disciple. There are things you don't need to hide."
