No matter what Zhuge Minghai thought, it had nothing to do with Austin anymore.
Since the Plum Blossom Sect's resurgence, Zhuge Minghai had risen to the top expert of Sanshui County. With the prospect of future inheritance, the cause and effect between Austin and the Plum Blossom Sect had already dissipated.
Back then, to ensure the sect's future glory, the Plum Blossom Sect secretly hid the Gate of Truth's base in the Ancestral Hall, allowing Austin to avoid disaster.
Now that Austin had recovered, he imparted the Plum Blossom Sect's Secret Technique. Henceforth, as long as the sect members weren't too incompetent, the flourishing of the inheritance was assured.
The cause of that year, the effect of today.
It's like an equivalent exchange.
In fact, the cause and effect between the Plum Blossom Sect and Austin would remain unchanged even if Austin did nothing but simply left.
