Chapter 249: Quest

The Great Elder smiled kindly at the girl and said, "Xiao Mei, it is always important to show compassion and trust towards others, especially when they pose no harm."

Although he didn't know what Xu Shan's identity was, he had a feeling that it was for their benefit to get a good relationship with this guy, and if possible, have him join the sect and become a part of it.

"Let us give them the benefit of the doubt for now. If they prove to be untrustworthy, we can always involve the Enforcement Elder later."

Xu Shan appreciated the Great Elder's understanding and replied, "Thank you for your kindness, Great Elder. We would be grateful for your guidance and assistance. We promise to abide by the rules and respect the customs of your sect for as long as we are within your land."
