As Lin Xiao Tian finished speaking, Tian Jian Wun quietly looked toward him for several moments before finally opening his mouth. "Take me in as an elder of your sect."
The calm evening atmosphere around the pavilion suddenly quieted even further after those words.
Lin Xiao Tian slowly raised his eyes toward him while his expression remained completely calm.
"With the level of strength and influence you possess," he said quietly, "do you truly only want this in exchange for your help?"
Hearing this, Tian Jian Wun slowly nodded without hesitation. "Indeed, Sect Master."
His gaze gradually drifted toward the distant mountains of the sect while traces of emotion flickered faintly within his dragon-like eyes. "I simply wish to watch them grow."
Then his expression became slightly deeper afterward. "And I wish to know whether this curse can truly be broken."
The surrounding wind quietly passed through the pavilion while the spiritual lake beneath reflected the fading evening sky.
