Chapter 601 - 347 Cultivation (Happy National Day!)
Atop Sword Holding Peak’s summit was a pavilion, a place where Li Shiming received guests.
Li Shiming sat at the main seat next to the stone table in the pavilion, ready for a prearranged meeting, which also marked the first time he emerged from seclusion after more than ten days.
Given his current status, unless the visitors’ status was exceedingly high, he would not need to personally greet them, even if they were Golden Core Elders from a major sect.
A figure arrived at the pavilion steadily and without haste, landing outside. It was a middle-aged Golden Core cultivator, identified by the insignia of an Elder from the Thousand Illusion Sect.
"Zhu Chang pays his respects to Master Li!" Zhu Chang expressed his utmost respect; he bowed as soon as they met, not considering himself a peer at all.
In fact, Zhu Chang held a senior status compared to Li Shiming, as Zhu Chang was a friend of Master Luo from the Thousand Illusion Sect, and Master Luo was Yin Shilan’s master.
However, in the Cultivation World, unless there was a genuine master-disciple relationship, status did not dictate interactions.
Yet it was precisely because of this connection that Zhu Chang was qualified to meet with Li Shiming.
"Still, I must thank Senior Sister Luo, without her, how could I have had the opportunity to request Master Li’s help in alchemy!"
These were not Zhu Chang’s spoken words, but his thoughts.
