Chapter 517 - 460: Confrontation and Compromise
During the flight, Zhang Decheng finally found time to answer Wang Zijia’s question, saying:
"You cheeky little thing, do you think space-time anchoring and performing large-scale teleportation over long distances is a simple feat?"
"The distance to our Sect is easily tens of millions of miles, and without any preparation or construction of any array platforms, the fact that the Head Teacher is able to rapidly perform such mass teleportation only using an anchoring object is already a stunning feat."
"And you even invited tens of thousands of disciples ... why don’t you simply ask why the Head Teacher didn’t just move the whole Sect here?"
Wang Zijia was slightly taken aback, his hands resting on Zhang Decheng’s shoulders, his feet dangling, swinging gleefully. Like a little elf, he laughed nonchalantly, "True! It’s because I think the Head Teacher is remarkably talented!"
"Save your flattery for when you’re in front of him, I have no idea how you managed to become this sycophantic during your time in the Lower Realm!" laughed Zhang Decheng.

The conversation between the old man and the youth was light-hearted and relaxed, with them laughing and teasing each other like grandfather and grandson.
This drew the frequent attention of the Big Shots, who, it seemed, were noticing for the first time how familiar the Pavilion Master and this ’familiar simply because he’s a fellow Daoist’ Infant God Junior Brother were.
"Ding!"
Just then, a huge metallic clang resonated throughout the ruins, causing the earth to tremble and the mountains to shake.
