After being praised by the master she respected most, Murong Yao felt an overwhelming sense of joy. There was nothing more gratifying than such an acknowledgment. Years of arduous cultivation felt instantly worthwhile in that moment; the smile that bloomed on Murong Yao’s face was breathtaking.
Shen Han then explained the primary reason for his visit. In truth, he had planned to stop by while he was in the area. After all, she was his disciple—the first one he had ever truly taken on by choice. Although cultivation often meant long stretches of separation, he still thought of her whenever he had the time. Now that his younger sister had brought up the subject of his sect, he had come to inform his disciple. If she wished to cultivate within his sect, she was welcome to go; if she preferred to remain in her own, that was perfectly fine as well. Shen Han had no strong desire to possess or control this sect. He had no ambition for this place to gain fame across the world; to him, it was merely a small, private retreat. It might sound a bit sappy, but as one ages, one tends to become a bit sentimental—or, perhaps, simply honest.
How could Murong Yao refuse? This was an invitation from her most respected master!
