"Gone?"
In the Divine Brilliance Sect's Main Hall, Li Shentong stood with his hands clasped behind him, quietly observing in front of his ancestor's portrait. Situ Xiao, who acted wantonly and drank to his heart's content outside, dared not even breathe heavily in front of his master. Standing honestly behind him, he replied, "Master, not long after you left, he just up and went. He didn't even drink his wine, fidgeting like he was sitting on pins and needles."
"Did he give something to you, and did you reciprocate?"
Situ Xiao replied a bit helplessly, "Yes, he didn't even look at it, just stuffed it straight into his pocket."
Li Shentong seemed puzzled as well, then suddenly laughed out loud, "Interesting. But it doesn't matter. We offered what we had to offer, and if he throws it into the trash, that's his business. The Divine Brilliance Sect owes no one."
