"Today is the day we set out to war, set—"
Ye Lin was brimming with heroic spirit, but before he could finish, an old man suddenly appeared before him, leaning on a cane as he stood in front of Ye Lin.
"Elder... Elder Xu?"
"This junior, Ye Lin, pays his respects to Elder Xu."
Ye Lin recognized the old man at a glance. Wasn't this the ancestor of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect?
A mighty Golden Immortal stood before him—he naturally had to be respectful.
"Find a place and have a chat."
Xu Changsheng said cheerfully. Yet when he raised his head, the many experts behind Ye Lin all stood frozen in place, holding their breath. At that moment, they did not even dare breathe without permission.

"Senior, this way."
Though puzzled by Xu Changsheng's request, Ye Lin still led him into the main hall.
Behind them, just as the gathered experts intended to follow, Xu Changsheng stopped them.
"You little ones just wait here. Why are you sticking your noses in?"
At Xu Changsheng's words, the experts stood there awkwardly, not daring to argue. Even half-step Golden Immortal experts lowered their heads obediently on the spot, meek as little lambs.
Ye Lin brought Xu Changsheng into the main hall. After settling him in, he looked at Xu Changsheng with a puzzled expression.
He did not believe Xu Changsheng had come personally merely to catch up. Since Xu Changsheng had descended in person, there had to be something important.
