"Junior Brother Xiao Zhi, there's no need for such formalities, please have a seat."
Wan Chong smiled and motioned towards a white jade stone chair.
Receiving a courteous treatment from one of Chong Xu Sword Peak's most powerful seniors, Zhang Xiao Zhi showed none of the joy that might be expected of him; instead, he appeared restless, a tinge of panic lurking deep within his eyes.
"I've called you here because Huan Zhen Sword Peak's Lu Xuan, Junior Brother Lu, has something to discuss with you."
Wan Chong turned to look at Lu Xuan.
"Junior Brother Zhang, you're from the Zhang Family of Xingyue City, right? Do you know Friend Chen Yuqiu from the nearby Chen Family?"
Lu Xuan asked with a smile on his face.
"The Zhang and Chen families are less than a thousand miles apart and often interact. I've met the Chen Family Head more than once during my childhood, but after coming to the Sword Sect to practice, our meetings have become rare."
Zhang Xiao Zhi spoke with deliberation.
