Seeing that Elder Chen had returned so quickly, the other Elders appeared surprised. They didn't expect him to be here this early. "Elder Chen, you're back!"
"What happened?"
The String Pavilion didn't give you a hard time, right? Is it Elder Huang again?"
"I knew it! The Elders of the String Pavilion aren't good people," one of them spat before sighing. "But they did help us, so maybe we shouldn't be as angry with them as we were."
The elders discussed one after the other, sighing.
If Elder Chen went over to thank him, then it was best that they didn't pursue this matter. After all, they were still indebted to the String Pavilion, right?
With all their questions coming one after the other, Elder Chen yanked the gifts from his assistant's arms and placed them on the table. The loud bang echoed across the room. "They weren't the ones who sent my disciple's location."
He wouldn't have given them these gifts if he knew.
