"I am grateful to the Immortal Masters for stepping in and ensuring the safe return of my son to the palace. I am here to express my thanks." King Jiao Lianmi, accompanied by his son, came closer and made a gesture of respect across his chest as he spoke.
Seeing this, Shen Luo and the rest also hastily returned the courtesy.
Only Madman Zhangguo, upon noticing the outfit the King was wearing, pointed to the crown placed atop of the King's head and burst into loud, unintelligible laughter.
The guards on standby, seeing this, were about to detain him, yet they were stopped by King Jiao Lianmi.
He naturally knew about Zhangguo's background, hence he did not take it personally, and then asked, "I heard that several masters have come from the Eastern Great Tang. My previous neglect is regrettable, and I hope you will excuse me."
