Chapter 36: Xuanyuan Zhou’s Heart
The sound of clapping greeted Han Xuhan’s ears as his eyes began to adjust to the brightness of the late morning sun.
"Well done, well done! Quite a quick performance!"
Xuanyuan Zhou was leaning against the wall of the guest hall lazily. Her eyes revealed a deep satisfaction as she gazed at him, like a mother watching her son performing well in a competition.
"Can my lady explain what’s going on?" Han Xuhan asked immediately. He had his guesses, but it was better to hear it from this girl who clearly knew more than everyone in that guest hall combined.
Xuanyuan Zhou’s smile got a lot more pronounced, but she didn’t give him what he wanted.
"If I tell you, my dear attendant, it’d do you more harm than good. All I’ll say is... congratulations on successfully attending a class on the Monastic path of cultivation on your first day in Crimson Snow Sect!"
"What Monastic path-" Han Xuhan stopped midway in his retort, getting the hint.
So that was the third class? No teacher, no instructions, no door, no light... Good heavens!
What did the Elder of this mountain peak want to teach them? What part of this lesson constituted any element of monasticism?
