Despite it being an inquiry, the King was not giving him any chance to turn down the proposal.
The King was the head, and he loved to have everything in his control. He had insisted on trying to get Destiny Monk to the court when he was in the temple, yet none of his men broke through Destiny Monk's array formation, thus he gave up the idea.
Now that Destiny Monk was already out of the practice and here in the court, he was not going to let him go so easily.
He had predicted that the Saint Divine Land was going to meet a disaster, yet he had no idea what the disaster was. Besides, the Phoenix Girl's function had not been told, so the King was not going to let him back to the temple.
The King looked quite threatening, but Destiny Monk did not really care.
He could either stay at the temple or in the court, because he had the array formation that he could use to defend himself against anyone except for Gu Chaoyan.
Destiny Monk nodded.
