Chapter 96: The Opportunity of the Ten Thousand Immortals Pavilion
Li Fan turned his head and looked at Steward Zhao.
Steward Zhao, facing a legendary immortal, couldn't help but be a bit nervous. He carefully chose his words and asked, "Esteemed Immortal, it seems like you had a good relationship with Immortal He?"
Li Fan was about to respond but suddenly remembered something. He contemplated for a moment and then said, "Fellow Daoist He and I have known each other for more than forty years, and he has shown me great care. I was away for a while, and I had no knowledge of his passing. Seeing fellow Daoist He's memorial tablet today was truly a great shock."
"I can only offer a joss stick..."
Saying this, Li Fan shook his head and sighed.
Steward Zhao also sighed and said, "Since I learned of Immortal He's passing and set up this memorial hall, it's been twenty-six days. You are the first and only one to come and pay your respects to him."
"Many immortals on the island have arrived in the past few days, either to search for his possessions or to compete for the position of guarding Liuli Island."
"Now, with the new guardian immortal already in office, it's difficult for me to keep my current position."
"I have been unable to fulfill fellow Daoist He's last wish all this time, and I feel guilty."
