Chapter 690: The World of Small Fries
Daoist Yinli had been seated as the Temple Master of Infatuation Daoist Temple for some time now. However, for some unknown reason, this newly appointed Temple Master had not been overly ostentatious. Instead, he remained extremely low-key, only appearing for necessary occasions. The rest of the time, he spent in seclusion on the rear mountain.
Because of this, many disciples who had been dissatisfied with his appointment as temple master had fewer grievances. Though his way of doing things was not identical to Daoist Wuyang's, they were at least quite similar.
Change was often difficult to accept. Maintaining things as they had been made it easier for people to adjust.
Beneath an ancient pine tree, Daoist Yinli met Yu Lu, whom the black ox had brought.
The black ox gave Yu Lu a meaningful glance before sidling up with a fawning expression and whispering, “Sage, I've brought him.”
Yu Lu was perceptive enough to understand. Without hesitation, he knelt down and respectfully greeted, “Disciple Yu Lu greets the Your Excellency, Temple Master.”
Daoist Yinli did not even lift his head. Instead, he turned his gaze to the black ox and asked indifferently, “What do you see in him?”
The black ox answered carefully, “This boy is meticulous and good at reading people. As for his natural talent... perhaps it's not bad. Serving by Sage's side shouldn't be an issue.”
Daoist Yinli's expression remained unchanged as he turned to Yu Lu. “Raise your head.”
