Zhong Shenxiu had a good chat with Wei Baizhu and talked about some of the less important things he encountered in Jianghu.
When he heard that Zhong had made friends with Jing Fan of Stone Buddha Temple, Duan Mingyu of Su Yin Sword Sect, and others, the old man's face blossomed into a smile. Upon hearing that Zhong had joined the Divine Capture Sect and become a Silver Seal Minister, the old man fell into thought and then slapped his thigh, "Well done. Our small house cannot afford to provoke those enemies. Joining the government was an act of necessity."
"And this position of guest elder is truly marvelous. With this, the court cannot summon you to fight to the death at will…"
"That was my thinking as well," Zhong Shenxiu replied with a smile.
"Recently, I've heard of your return. Many nearby sects, especially Nine Elements Sect, have sent invitations. You handle them as you see fit. I'm at ease…"
