Ding Songyan carefully studied Pan Yunzhou's back, finding it broad and spacious, its shape eminently suitable.
For some reason, Pan Yunzhou gave an inexplicable shiver and discovered Junior Brother Ding smiling at him.
Was Junior Brother Ding really this happy about using the Great Canon of the Stars to supplement the Celestial Stars Scripture? Pan Yunzhou was puzzled.
Just then, he saw Ding Songyan walk up beside him and salute Tao Wenshu with cupped hands:
"Master, this matter is of great importance. Someone trustworthy must accompany Senior Brother Pan. Though your disciple lacks ability, I am willing to go to Eastern Plain Prefecture."
This... Pan Yunzhou could have racked his brains forever without imagining that Junior Brother Ding wanted to accompany him to retrieve the opening orifices and organ dressing methods, along with the specific martial arts, from the Great Canon of the Stars.
Although what he said did make sense, and the matter was important enough that the Xiaoming Sect ought to send someone along, this responsibility required at least a third-rank Divination disciple or steward.
As an early-stage Dayan Realm martial artist who had yet to receive a rank, he would be a burden, however prodigious his martial talent.
Junior Sister Zheng could manage it now. After all, she had been capable of fighting and killing fourth-rank Transcendent martial artists while still in the early-stage Dayan Realm, and she was now in the mid-stage Dayan Realm.
For a moment, Tao Wenshu did not know whether to laugh or cry:
If Songyan wanted to use this opportunity to investigate his origins in Yuejiang Prefecture, he could simply say so. Pan Yunzhou would certainly understand. There was no need to drape himself in such a tiger skin.
Still, this was his usual way of doing things.
"Very well." Tao Wenshu
