Li Yun was startled by what he heard.
"You know I caused trouble for the Sky Desert Divine Hall?"
Sage Yin Luo burst out laughing. "Haha! You admit you caused trouble for the Sky Desert Divine Hall, yet you still say you're not Knocking Sage? You're Knocking Sage himself!"
"Let me introduce myself. I'm Sage Yin Luo, from the Heaven-Shaking Domain!"
"I've heard so much about you, Fellow Daoist Knocking Sage. Who would've thought I'd run into you by sheer chance?"
"What a pleasure to meet you."
Li Yun looked utterly bewildered.
"Wait... Fellow Daoist Yin Luo, what's all this about Knocking Sage? What the hell is Knocking Sage supposed to mean?"
"Uh... You don't know, Fellow Daoist Li?"
"Surely not?"
"Hey... Wait. Don't tell me you came straight here to hide after dealing with those nine Ordinary Constant Sages from the Sky Desert Divine Hall?"
Li Yun nodded. That was exactly what had happened.
Sage Yin Luo found it even funnier. He promptly told Li Yun about the talk in the Azure Abyss Domain after he left, and how some busybodies had dubbed him Knocking Sage.
Li Yun was furious.
"For fuck's sake... Knocking Sage? Knock your damn heads together!"
First Golden Lotus, now Knocking Sage.
What the hell was wrong with these titles?
Couldn't the people naming him come up with something a little more respectable?
Something like Supreme Golden Palace Sage Constant Eternal Heavenly Venerable Sage Emperor?
Even Ancient Sage Emperor would do.
Surely anything was better than Knocking Sage?
Damn it!
Seeing Li Yun's face darken, Sage Yin Luo found the whole thing even more amusing.
"Come on, Fellow Daoist Li. So what if it's Knocking Sage? I think it sounds pretty good."
"Besides, it was just a bunch of busybodies who love stirring up trouble.
