Lin Tian bowed and said, "Thank you, Saint Tongtian!"
Lin Tian immediately took a seat on the Cloud Couch, facing Tongtian as they sat and discussed the Dao!
This was treatment reserved for Saints. Anyone who was not a Saint would first have to kneel and pay their respects with a grand bow. Though Lin Tian had not yet become a Saint, he was already entitled to a Saint's treatment.
Tongtian smiled and asked, "Now that you have purple qi and boundless merit, you could become a Saint on the spot. Do you intend to do so?"
