But the moment Senior Brother Jinshan said that,
the disciples of the Evergreen Valley lineage went glassy-eyed, then instantly erupted into fervor.
Going to see the other lineages had already been the dream of these disciples in their thirties and forties.
As for going to see the Mystic Ice Hall, before today, they had not even dared to think of it.
Faced with all those blazing gazes and the expectations of the crowd,
Wang Shouzhe could not very well pour cold water over them on the spot. He immediately changed the subject. "Senior Sisters and Senior Brothers, Shouzhe is somewhat tired after that battle just now."
The implication was naturally that the matter of going to the Mystic Ice Hall should be dropped.
Yet Senior Brother Jinshan misunderstood him. With a solemn expression, he said, "Senior Brother Shouzhe is absolutely right. You should rest properly before going to battle at the Mystic Ice Hall. Someone, clean up the resting room in the Instruction Hall! Bring out anything tasty or capable of restoring vitality. Offer it all up!"
"Yes!"
The junior brothers and sisters below cheered and immediately ran off with boundless enthusiasm to get things done.
As long as Senior Brother Shouzhe could take them to see the Mystic Ice Hall, they were willing to do anything.
Half an hour later, inside a side room of the Instruction Hall, Wang Shouzhe, Liu Ruolan, Liu Ruolei, Liu Xuanfu, and the others looked at one another.
"Brother-in-law, you are not really going to the Mystic Ice Hall to see it for yourself, are you?" Liu Ruolei asked worriedly from the side. "The Mystic Ice Hall is different from other places. Their disciples, senior brothers, and even... sigh, in any case, they are all extremely overbearing and not easy to provoke."
