Chapter 756: I'm Fluent Too
At dawn, the fog over Holy Mountain had yet to disperse.
A group of black-robed people riding on horses hastily ascended the mountain. Against the backdrop of the snow-capped mountains that were thousands of years old, the group had a striking presence, looking stern and imposing.
"Honorable Chancellor, you're here early."
Dhyana Master Wu'e, who was quite bald, was standing at the mountain gate, awaiting the group's arrival with a smile.
"Since it was the Noble Dharma who summoned me, I dare not delay my arrival," the leader of the group replied nonchalantly. "As soon as His Majesty issued the decree, I set out overnight."
The leader of the group was Su Qian, the chancellor of the Yu Dynasty. He was accompanied by a group of elite guards from his Sixteen-Faction Alliance.
The entire group bore the marks of their hurried journey, proving Su Qian's words.
"His Majesty cares for the people of the nine provinces, and you, Chancellor, work tirelessly for the people as well," Dhyana Master Wu'e remarked as he led the group up the mountain. "The Noble Dharma has been in closed-door cultivation for years and rarely meets guests, so he won't be coming out to greet you."
Su Qian nodded, appearing not to mind at all. "I understand."
Upon reaching a secluded courtyard near the main hall of the temple, Dhyana Master Wu'e added, "The Noble Dharma wishes to convey that we, Holy Mountain, too hope for peace in the world. That is why we are acting as an intermediary. Whatever you discuss today has nothing to do with us. You need not base your decision out of respect for the Noble Dharma."
Su Qian nodded in acknowledgement.
