Invitation Turmoil

"This time, it was all thanks to the Sect Leader that I was able to awaken from my inner demons. You have given me a new life, Sect Leader. Why not have you bestow my title upon me?"

"...Me?"

Adam was somewhat surprised. Then he thought of Xiao Hei, Xiao Hong (Fawkes), Mimi... and could not help feeling a little guilty.

Xia Zixun felt that since he had given her the title Lihèn and founded the Flower Wandering Sect, he was clearly a cultured man. But Adam himself knew it had merely been a burst of inspiration on a whim.

As for his usual naming ability...

Still, he could not show weakness before this newly inducted elder. Adam nodded calmly on the surface.

"In that case, let me think..."

"Quick, quick, quick, help me out!"

Adam anxiously slapped the table.

Fortunately, after all these years, the brothers had learned a little bit of everything, so he was not worried that they would not understand Chinese culture.

"Don't rush me, I'm grilling."

Eugene stroked his chin, deep in thought.

"What do you think of 'Yearning'? Of the Thirty-Third Heaven, Lihèn Heaven stands highest; of the four hundred and forty ailments, lovesickness is the most bitter..."

"Yeah, she just broke free of lovesickness, and you want to give her the title 'Yearning.' It really is bitter."

Bernard gave him a thumbs-up.

"Then you tell us!"

"It was written in Dream of the Red Chamber that Fairy Jinghuan lived in Lihèn Heaven, beside the Sea of Pouring Sorrows. In that case..."

Everyone nodded slightly.

"How about 'Pouring Sorrows'?"

Everyone's nodding abruptly stopped.

"...Are you serious?"

Uther could not help rubbing his face.

"No matter how you put it, that doesn't sound like a person's name, does it? Jinghuan would be better by comparison..."
