'And this nominal post with the Jingwu Guard,' Chen Qing thought. 'It seems to offer freedom, but in reality, it's a leash. Once you start completing missions for Cultivation Resources, you'll inevitably form deeper and deeper ties with the Jingwu Guard.

'The Court is using an overt scheme, luring us with benefits to gradually infiltrate and win over the future pillars of the Sects... Brilliant. Truly brilliant.'
The power of an overt scheme lies in the fact that even when you know it's not that simple, you still willingly walk into the trap.
Zhao Lin seemed to have seen through some of their thoughts but didn't expose them. He simply clapped his hands.
