In the blink of an eye, another half year passed on Origin Xia's side.
During this time, Young Master Qiu and the disciples of the various Ways repeatedly brought groups of servant disciples to the Envoy Hall for amusement. Since novel things appeared every time, they always lingered there, forgetting to return.
After this round of revelry, Young Master Qiu stroked two round, snow-white lion-like beasts and said, "True Person Chang, I wish to visit Celestial Xia. I presume Celestial Xia will not refuse?"
As he spoke, the other disciples of the Ways seated nearby also cast seemingly casual looks of interest his way. Clearly, they shared the same idea.
Chang Yang smiled and said, "There is no reason why not. According to the agreement made back then, Origin Xia already has a station in Celestial Xia. Ordinarily, we will not obstruct your coming and going."
Young Master Qiu curled his lip. "I want to go there for pleasure. What is the point of merely visiting the station?" He spoke with great disdain. "I know that station too. It is not even as good as this resident Envoy Hall, and it has collapsed and been destroyed several times already. How many people are willing to stay there?"
Chang Yang said, "If it is only for amusement, I can report the matter from here. But will your side not have anything to say about it?"
Young Master Qiu sneered. "Who would bother controlling me? The Way scions and those clan brothers of mine would be delighted if I stayed as far away from them as possible. Origin Upper Hall cannot restrain us either. We can simply find some excuse about investigating Celestial Xia's movements, can we not?"
His words immediately drew agreement from all the Way disciples present.
Chang Yang laughed.
