Chapter 400: Traveling Together

Elder Qingquan looked at him and smiled with satisfaction.

"But—"

Elder Qingquan’s tone suddenly grew weighty. A fiercely sharp light burst forth from his murky eyes.

"If one day, you run into an insurmountable obstacle on the path of formations—encounter some thorny problem, or something even Xuanheng can’t figure out—"

Elder Qingquan pointed to the bamboo gate beside him.

"You can come here anytime."

His voice rang out like a hammer striking metal, echoing through the courtyard of Listening to Waves Pavilion.

"The notes and fragmentary scrolls in my study are yours to peruse at any time."

Within the Consciousness Sea, Lin Yu let out a long sigh.

"My disciple. This old man is a man of true feeling. You hit a bloody jackpot this time."Warmth surged through Su Ming’s heart. An indescribable wave of emotion welled up inside him.

He rose to his feet and stepped back half a pace.

He lifted the hem of his violet Daoist robe, bent both knees, and knelt solidly on the bluestone slab.

This time, he performed the true ritual of a disciple’s grand salute.

"Thank you, Elder."

Su Ming’s voice came out a little hoarse.

Elder Qingquan did not stop him. He accepted the bow.

Only after Su Ming had finished kowtowing did Elder Qingquan casually wave a hand.

"Alright, get up. Sit."

"The old man hasn’t finished speaking yet."

Su Ming quickly stood up and sat back down on the stone stool.

Elder Qingquan took a sip of tea, then abruptly shifted the topic.
