Wang Longyan had long been accustomed to such treatment. With a casual greeting, she brushed off a few words and immediately made her way through the crowd to the edge of the Sword-viewing Terrace, where she respectfully performed a disciple's salute to Qi Hongzhao.

Not bad. It seems this period of cultivation has been quite fruitful for you, not only breaking through to the seventh layer of the Purple Abode Realm, but your foundation also seems much more stable, and your aura is more smooth and satisfactory."
