Bab 507: Swear an Oath

As he thought about this, he strode past the Moon Gate and spotted Xu Ning outside of the cultivation courtyard.

Xu Ning wore a yellow cowl for the day. He was standing as still as a statue outside the door in silence. He was actually cultivating.

When he saw Chu Li, he put his palms together and greeted, "His Royal Highness is waiting for you, Head Chief!"

"I was just looking for His Royal Highness," Chu Li said. "I have great news for him."

"Please." Xu Ning extended his hand and invited him in.

Chu Li pushed the door open and entered the cultivation courtyard. King An was sitting at the stone table, looking up at the sky silently without moving an inch.

Chu Li did not say a word and sat down on the opposite of King An.

Xu Ning stood at a corner of the courtyard in order to not attract any attention.

King An watched the sky without paying any attention to it. He looked rather absent-minded.
