Xiang Laner understood and the two of them immediately sought out Shi Chun that very night to explain the situation.
Shi Chun, who was meditating in a cross-legged position, shook his head with regret after hearing them. "You should have mentioned this earlier; it's too late now. Young Master Nan isn't my subordinate. Asking him to go through all that trouble again, I don't have that kind of clout."
Feng Chi was getting anxious. "How could we have mentioned it earlier? We didn't even know if Young Master Nan would agree. Who knew you would create a sect with thirteen members? Who knew you'd get approval from the Divine Fire Covenant so quickly? Young Master Nan agreed to your request, why didn't you inform us beforehand?"
Shi Chun had his reasons: "He didn't agree either, just said he'd try and, who knew, it worked. I was surprised too. You said it was going to be troublesome, who knew he would handle it so quickly?"
