Little Lotus crouched beside the cliff, watching the iron kettle on the stove intently and listening to the sound of the water. There was no telling what tea she would replace the maojian with.
Gu Qing showed Bai Zao around.
True Person Jingyang's cave abode counted as the finest scenery to any Daoist cultivator.
Once the tea in the iron kettle was ready, Little Lotus carried it into the cave abode. Gu Qing also led Bai Zao inside, where she took her seat.
Zhao Layue and Jing Jiu sat at the head, with Yuan Qu and Gu Qing standing to either side. Little Lotus poured the tea, still intent on her task, as though she had seen nothing.
This was the first time Divine End Peak had received a guest so formally.

Yuan Qu glanced at Gu Qing, thinking, Have we gone a little too far?
Gu Qing's expression remained calm, without any reaction.
The atmosphere in the cave abode was somewhat awkward. Puzzled, Jing Jiu asked, "What's going on?"
"Perhaps it's because of that rumor," Bai Zao said with a smile.

The person involved was always the last to learn the truth. That saying was always right.
Zhao Layue knew nothing about the rumor either and glanced at Gu Qing.
Gu Qing was a little surprised. You didn't know? Then why did you change into new clothes today, wash your hair, and even tie it into two cute little braids?
Knowing Bai Zao was coming to Divine End
