Bai Shou raced through the crowd like an agile fish weaving through the water, and as soon as he caught sight of Chen Ping’an, he immediately gave him a thumbs-up and flashed him a wide grin.
“What’s gotten you in such a good mood?” Chen Ping’an asked in a puzzled manner.
Bai Shou burst into laughter as he asked, “You know someone named Xu Xingjiu from Cloudtop City, don’t you?”
“I do,” Chen Ping’an replied with a smile.
Bai Shou was practically rolling with laughter as he chortled. “Right now, Liu Jinglong is super busy, and he has to constantly attend to guests and visitors. In fact, he’s been forced to turn quite a few people away because he simply doesn’t have the time to see everyone. However, when Xu Xingjiu came to visit, he claimed to be an acquaintance of yours, so Liu Jinglong decided to grant him an audience.

“Who’re you calling a little servant?!” Bai Shou snapped. “Right now, I’m the undisputed number one prodigy of the Great Emblem Sword Sect! Liu Jinglong has to offer incense up to the gods every day behind my back, thanking the heavens that he was blessed with such an exceptional disciple!”
Chen Ping’an patted Bai Shou’s head with an amused smile.
“Get your hand off me!” Bai Shou snapped as he violently jerked his head away. “What do you take me for, some kid?! You should be honored that I’m treating you as an equal, so don’t push your luck! Otherwise, you can go to the Great Emblem Sword...
