Feng Jun really didn't want to accept that watch deep down, but if he didn't, Elder Peng might unavoidably overthink it.
So he had no choice but to reluctantly accept it, while simultaneously expressing that Elder Peng was being too formal, and that this should not set a precedent.
That evening, Tang Wenji threw a feast for everyone: she was going back to Maoshan.
The recent disturbance in Maoshan had nearly cooled down; in an age of information overload, the spotlight shifted too quickly.
As the Little Celestial Master and the second most important figure of Maoshan, it was fine for her to be out and about for a while, but constantly floating outside without returning would negatively affect Maoshan's reputation.
During the feast, she drank too much, and between the lines of her speech, she conveyed one message: Mountain Master Feng, if you were to give me a title, I wouldn't need to return, but alas... you won't give me that title.
