If it were only himself, it wouldn't matter, but in court, he wasn't just representing himself but also the stance of the True Martial Sect and couldn't afford to hastily take sides.
Therefore, even though he was grieved by the death of the emperor, he did not immediately go to Tiandu.
Qingyang Zi checked the time and, in a low voice, asked Pang Hong who had already arrived, "What's going on with your teacher, why hasn't he come yet?"
He blatantly spoke to Pang Hong, completely disregarding the gazes of others.
After all, Pei Xuanjing's experiences in the Martial Academy were known to all, so it was only right that Qingyang Zi knew Pang Hong. If he were to excessively conceal and feign ignorance, it would make others suspicious.
Hearing Qingyang Zi's question, Pang Hong didn't hide anything either, "Before setting off, the teacher said he wanted to go alone and didn't need us to follow him, he assured he would arrive at the agreed time."
