Thud, thud, thud.
Three knocks rang out, clear and distinct. Even Jiang Changkong felt her pain.
"Thank you, Senior, for bestowing this inheritance. This junior will certainly not disgrace your great name." Huo Qinglan's voice was crisp and pleasant, carrying a trace of excitement.
Jiang Changkong: "..."
I'm the one who got the Three-Colored Stone Pearl, so why did Huo Qinglan receive the inheritance?
She only bowed because I told her to!
"Thank you, Senior, for your inheritance. It is actually a Solar Star Power martial art. My Nan Family now has another top-tier martial art." Nan Zhaokong said excitedly.
"Thank you, Senior... my Heng Family..."
"Thank you, Senior... my Jade Light Chamber of Commerce..."
Jiang Changkong: "..."
To hell with your top-tier martial art!
Wasn't it supposed to be an immortal scripture? Why was mine replaced with a high-grade star array diagram?
Three other high-level martial artists had also obtained inheritances through worship.
"You all received inheritances?" Lin Feng and the others looked rather grim. They had not bowed.
There were also some insincere martial artists who had offered perfunctory worship. They had not even been as sincere as Jiang Changkong and had received no inheritance either.
"Thank you, Changkong. So you deliberately reminded us in order for us to gain the inheritance."
Huo Qinglan slowly rose and gave him a solemn bow.
"Thank you, Changkong. We actually failed to understand your painstaking intentions just now." Yao Qing and the other two bowed as well.
"Thank you, Changkong."
The remaining three who had received inheritances all saluted him in thanks.
Jiang Changkong's lips twitched. He practically gritted out, "Y-you're welcome."
Can I say that I had no idea at all?
*The Three-Colored Stone Pearl never told me about this. If it had, I would've come in and bowed dozens
