Therefore, for Lu Yuan, accepting Xichuan State is not a problem. However, whether to accept the monks of the White Phoenix Temple deserves consideration and deep thought.
However, it seems that the White Phoenix Temple side has already considered this issue. Hearing Lu Yuan asking, Hui An replied: "If the king is willing to accept, the monks of our temple, including Master Jihui, all wish to serve the king.
We only ask the king to choose a location within Chu State territory for us to rebuild the Mountain Gate.
If the king is unwilling to accept, we only ask the king to open the road and let us pass.
Although the White Phoenix Temple has moved to Xichuan, we still have some branches and foundation in Linhai County in Ning Country. Our temple also has some connections with the Jinling officials, so we could return to Linhai County and rebuild the White Phoenix Temple."
Hui An presented two choices: sheltering them or letting them go on their way.
