When Wan Hong entered, Nangong Yanran was also planning to step forward and offer her congratulations.
However, Wan Hong suddenly knelt before Xiao Chen to thank him, which left her somewhat astonished.
Thinking it over, her master helping Wan Hong break through to the Immortal Emperor level indeed justified such a grand gesture. But why did Wan Hong also refer to himself as "this humble servant" and call the master "Master"? What was the situation?

After Wan Hong's breakthrough to the Immortal Emperor, his status soared greatly.
Now, it was nearly accurate to say he stood among those at the peak of the Immortal Realm's hierarchy.
Yet, he did not become arrogant because of this. Instead, he still harbored a reverent heart towards Xiao Chen.
