The Sacred Order Tablet symbolised the highest authority within the Timeless Flame Sect, issued only by the Heavenly Flame Hall, the faction directly under the reigning sect master. In its presence, all sect members were to obey without exceptions.
For Old Zheng to have obtained the Sacred Order Tablet, it meant that the sect master himself had given the order.
"...Xuan Hao of the Timeless Flame Sect heeds the order and shall return at once," Young Master Xuan Hao answered with a deep frown.
"Good," Old Zheng nodded before putting away the golden tablet. Only then did Young Master Xuan Hao and Elder Renhao relax a little.
"What is going on here, Old Zheng?" Elder Renhao questioned. "How did Young Master Xuan Hao end up being accused of such nonsense?"
"Please understand that I am not in the position to speak too much either. After all, I am just a messenger," Old Zheng smiled wryly.
