The Nine Dragon Sect had Mahayana cultivators, but that did not mean it had one available at all times. The Five Great Immortal Clans, on the other hand, had been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years and surely had more than one Mahayana cultivator. The Nine Dragon Sect still couldn't afford to offend them.
Though both sides had Mahayana cultivators, the Nine Dragon Sect's might not be a match for those of the Five Great Immortal Clans. After all, the latter had a longer legacy, and heritage was part of one's strength.
"Since it was a misunderstanding, all we need to do is clear things up. It's a small matter." Gongsun Qian didn't think much of it.
She hadn't taken such a trivial matter to heart at all. She only needed to pass the word down the line; to her, it was a small matter.
Jin Yaoyao breathed a quiet sigh of relief and said, "As long as it's cleared up, that's all that matters. Thank you, Fairy Gongsun."
"You should thank Fellow Daoist Shi. If not for him, I wouldn't have learned the truth." Gongsun Qian said meaningfully.
This matter was neither big nor small. She was doing this to give Shi Yue face. If Jin Yaoyao therefore owed Shi Yue a favor, then Shi Yue would owe Gongsun Qian one in turn.
Jin Yaoyao nodded. "Of course. We have Fellow Daoist Shi to thank for this, too. I'll be sure to treat you all to a proper welcome."
"All right, if there's nothing else, let's leave it at that. I still have matters to attend to." Gongsun Qian cut off the connection.
Jin Yaoyao handed the Transmission Mirror back to Shi Yue and said gratefully, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Shi. You've done me a tremendous favor.
