"It's thanks to Master's excellent teaching."
Chen Fan spoke sincerely, without any flattery.
"Of course, unless you think it's because you're naturally talented?" Elder White raised an eyebrow, "When I took you as a disciple, you were almost thirty and still a bookworm getting kicked out of bookstores."
Recalling those regretful past events, Chen Fan could only awkwardly raise his hand in agreement.
"You have already reached the Void Realm; you are someone of note across the Five Continents. By rights, I should have let you go long ago. But I'm worried, you are obedient to me, still as honest as when you were thirty, so wouldn't I be harming you by sending you away?"
"What Master says is true. Chen Fan is willing to serve Master for a lifetime."
Chen Fan kneeled on one knee to show his loyalty.
He was not interested in the outside world; to follow a respected elder and delve into the path he loves in a place he calls his own was all he wished for.
