"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Tang Zhong!" the elder sized him up and said with a smile.
This indeed flattered Tang Zhong, who had not expected the elder to call out his name.
At this time, noticing the situation, Li Linglong very wisely said, "Master, I have brought the person you asked for, I'll take my leave first!"
"Mm!" The venerable elder waved his hand.
Li Linglong turned around, gave Tang Zhong a meaningful look, and clenched his fist slightly, which meant to encourage Tang Zhong to be strong.
Tang Zhong understood and smiled in response.
Soon after Li Linglong had left and closed the door behind him,
the only ones left in the room were Tang Zhong and the elder.
"Venerable elder!" Tang Zhong said again respectfully, this time bending at a ninety-degree angle.
"No need to bow any more, nor to call me 'venerable elder.' According to our seniority, you should call me Grandpa Zhang!" the elder said with a smile.
