Amidst the crowd stood a middle-aged Taoist priest who was sweeping the floor. Slightly hunchbacked, his movements were gentle and slow. From behind, he looked like an old man of sixty or seventy, but his face appeared to be only around forty.
He wore a blue-gray Taoist robe without any decorative patterns, washed until it was faded white.
This indicated that the man was not a true initiated disciple of Tianxin Pavilion. Sects like Tianxin Pavilion all kept menial laborers to handle chores such as sweeping and tending incense; their status was not high.
