The cultivator surnamed Zhong scratched his head, torn.
Wang Quan patted his shoulder. "Fellow Daoist, don't overthink it."
"Go back to the Present World and rest first!"
The cultivator surnamed Zhong rasped, "All right!"
In the next breath, his figure vanished.

Wang Quan nodded, then went over. "Fellow Daoist Zhong, you should go back and rest."
The cultivator surnamed Zhong hesitated. "All right!"
Whoosh!
He withdrew
