章 276: Chapter 276 - Strange Things

"Excuse me, esteemed elder," I began, my voice laced with a note of deference and humility as I addressed the elder. "We have found ourselves in a precarious situation, and we seek your guidance and counsel on a matter of utmost importance."

The elder regarded us with a keen discernment, his piercing gaze surveying our disheveled appearances and the telltale signs of distress and hardship that marred our disguises. "You appear to have suffered greatly, young travelers. Pray tell, what has befallen you, and how may I be of assistance?" the elder inquired, his voice carrying a weight of compassion and understanding that spoke to the revered legacy of the Moon Sword Sect's enduring commitment to compassion and goodwill.
