The old monk gave the inquirer an amiable smile and then shook his head; it was unclear if the monk meant that he didn't know the answer or he didn't understand why he asked such a question.
Though the young monk looked more composed than before, he was still hot-tempered. "What do you mean by asking that?" he snapped sharply.
Those Cultivation practitioners had only articulated their respective opinions on who had the possibility of becoming the sect master of Green Mountain when they were discussing the topic, but they didn't express their own thoughts.
This was a matter where expressing one's own ideas was inappropriate.
The young monk thought that the question raised by this person obviously had a sinister intention.
"I'm just asking; no big deal."
Jing Jiu took off the conical hat and sat by the two monks.
