"Bai Changqing of Shushan, greets Marquis Wu'an!"
Bai Changqing quickly collected his thoughts, cupped his hands, and bowed.
"You are too courteous, Brother Bai, come, please..." Chen Yuan nodded in acknowledgment.
Lu Renyi, being perceptive, noticed the greeting and did not interrupt. He bowed and took his leave, nodding to Bai Changqing in farewell as he departed.
"Long time no see, Brother Bai, your demeanor surpasses even that of the past." Chen Yuan could sense Bai Changqing's approximate level of cultivation, seemingly at the peak of the Void Core, just below the True Core.
The speed of his cultivation was actually quite fast.
Bai Changqing shook his head:
"Compared to you, Brother Chen, my minor cultivation achievements are hardly worth mentioning." Bai Changqing smiled bitterly, but truthfully.
