Elder Zhou nodded, without seeking detailed understanding.
He simply said:
"Master Chen, there is something you might not know. Jinglong Hall has borrowed Imperial Court Mountain to hold the coming of age ceremony for the hall master.
"Our sect leader has been truly quite busy lately.
"In the short term, he likely won't have time to see you.
"However, in this vast Imperial Court Mountain, all who are coming are guests of Jinglong Hall, except Master Chen, who counts as a guest of our Tianjing Sect.
"Naturally, you can't be treated with negligence.
"How about this... you all stay here at my Imperial Court Mountain for now.
"Once the hall master's coming of age ceremony is over, or perhaps during that day, when there's a spare moment, I'll arrange for Master Chen to meet the sect leader.
"What do you think?"
"This is as good as it gets."
Chen Dinghai hurriedly clasped his hands in salute, "Thank you for making it possible, Elder Zhou."
"Not at all."
