章 115: The welcome

“I, Zheng Fang, pay my respects to you, Elder.”

Before long, Zheng Fang, the Sect Lord, clasped her hands together and bowed low. She greeted Bai Chen with the utmost respect.

Then, her sister and the other two ladies followed suit.

Bai Chen did not seem surprised by how Zheng Fang and the others treated him politely and called him an ‘Elder’.

This was because he had figured out since before why Xu Xue Ning called him an ‘Elder’ and then asked for his help.

What he had also figured out was that Xu Xue Ning must have thought he was a Sky Soaring Realm cultivator or one of a higher level.

If not, there would have been no way that she would have asked for his help—since they were facing a threat from another Sky Soaring Realm cultivator.

If she had not thought he was a Sky Soaring Realm cultivator or of a higher level, asking him for help would have been equivalent to bringing him to his death.

Bai Chen reasoned it all out this way.
