Capítulo 41: The Reason Why We Came

"So, how can I assist Elder Jiang?" Feng Fan asked, turning to face him after closing the door.

Elder Jiang's expression softened, and he gave a slight bow. "Feng Fan," he began, "I must apologize for my behavior when we first met. To be honest, if it weren't for Xue Qiang's intervention, you wouldn't have been given the opportunity to cultivate at all. The truth is, we took you away from your home, and I nearly committed something truly disgraceful."

Feng Fan was caught off guard. He hadn't expected Elder Jiang, a Dao Seeking realm expert capable of killing him with a mere thought, to ask for his forgiveness.

What surprised him even more was the sincerity in Elder Jiang's tone. Reading the elder's mind, Feng Fan confirmed there was no malice.

Since Elder Jiang wanted to put the past behind them, Feng Fan saw no reason to dwell on it either. They didn't share a life-and-death grudge, after all.
