Yang Fan walked in with a cheerful smile, but he didn't sit down immediately. Instead, he cupped his fists toward the three Sect Masters and said solemnly:
"I really must thank the three of you this time. If not for you, I probably wouldn't have made it through this ordeal."
"There's no need for such words. You're still so young. Come sit down, come sit down. The path of cultivation is full of challenges, and friendships are just a matter of helping each other out when needed. There's no need to be so formal."
Ding Wufeng said with a hearty laugh, as if he were talking about something completely unrelated to himself. Since Ding Wufeng put it this way, Hu Boqiu and Bai Yunfei naturally wouldn't insist on formal thanks from Yang Fan—it was good enough as it was.
