Xinzi's return came without fanfare. One large space vortex opened in the Liberation Temple's Lotus Hall, spreading spatial fluctuations that alerted the gals who, in Xinzi's absence, spent most of their time in secluded cultivation.
In the new Liberation Temple, the Lotus Hall acted as an amphitheater for Xinzi's Lianist lectures and a greeting hall for foreign emissaries.
Over 600 silver lotus seats alined in ordered rows and columns, separated by one white jade aisle lit up by luminous orbs.
A golden lotus platform hovered at the end of the amphitheater, dwarfing the 600 lotus seats with its epic proportions. Xinzi landed on that platform, laying on his right side in a casual pose.
"Ouin!"
"Master..."
"Abbot..."
"A'Xin..."
"Xinzi..."
"...is back."
