The group stared in confusion.
"Wang Jixuan?"
"Is it you?! The peerless genius that Tai Ye persuaded for days and nights without success, only to plunge into the Heavenly Tribulation and be struck dead!"
"Oh dear, I have always used you as a cautionary tale within the sect, saying you were reckless, and that cultivation requires steadiness, and that one must not be frivolous with their Dao Heart... you know..."
Master Wang looked a bit embarrassed.
Fortunately, Xiao Huating spoke promptly: "My teacher succeeded on the first attempt, it was just that the Heavenly Dao secretly increased the difficulty."
"Exactly, that's it!" Zheng Shiduo's serious expression made it seem like he was present during the Crossing Tribulation.
Master Wang laughed awkwardly and waved his hand: "It was indeed reckless, but since you all remember me, there's no need to thank me, I'm just helping back in the hometown."
Murong Zhengyi sighed: "I grew up hearing your stories."
"Next topic, next topic."
