A banquet had many disciples looking at Jiang Chen with several more measures of respect.
After the banquet concluded, Lin Jiuxiao rearranged the defense for the key members of the Lu Family and those from the Zhuge Family along the river.
Jiang Chen followed Jiang Minglong to his residence, where father and son talked late into the night.
The next day, Jiang Minglong, with the full text of the "Chixiao Art" he had written, took Jiang Chen to bid farewell to Lin Jiuxiao and others. Upon hearing that Jiang Chen and his father were leaving, all seven Great Elders came to the sect's main hall.
"Minglong, you should spend more time at home on this trip down the mountain, but your cultivation must not fall behind!" Lin Jiuxiao instructed with a light smile.
Jiang Minglong nodded heavily, "Sect Master, rest assured, I will definitely work hard on my cultivation."
