I Became a Supporting Character in a Martial Arts Novel (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 97

Instead of answering right away, I glanced sideways at Nangong Seohan.

‘Since the Young Master of the Tang Sect already knew I could see demonic energy… perhaps this side might be the same.’

Just recalling the Head of the Nangong Clan’s personality made it seem highly likely. Though I wasn’t sure if he treated his son the same way, he certainly didn’t seem like the type to speak cautiously.

Even if Nangong Seohan didn’t yet know this fact, it was something that would inevitably come to light sooner or later, so there’d be no issue if I revealed it first myself.
