Over the next half-day, Mo Linyuan took Li Ping'an around his cave abode, discussing the workings of the Heavenly Dao and matters related to it.
Li Ping'an revealed some of his 'understanding' of the Heavenly Dao, and Mo Linyuan grew increasingly gentle in his gaze.
Li Ping'an felt that if Mo Linyuan had a granddaughter, he might very well have been trussed up and sent to the bridal chamber that evening.
But fortunately, Mo Linyuan did not have a granddaughter.
Li Ping'an then borrowed more than a dozen books, and seeing that the day had grown late, he bid farewell with a cupped-hand salute.
Reluctance filled Mo Linyuan's eyes.
"Alas, in this world, to have a fellow Daoist accompany me, my way is not lonely, my way is not lonely indeed."
Although Li Ping'an wanted to inquire about the matters of the Wanmo Heaven, he was worried about angering the Daluo Golden Immortal, so he suppressed such thoughts.
