Tian Lin unhitched the wooden plaque of Sword Peak disciple from his waist and respectfully placed it on the table in front of Elder Xiao.
Elder Xiao did not take the wooden plaque. After Tian Lin performed the ritual to resign, he merely waved his hand.
After leaving the Daoist Temple, Tian Lin saw Brother Zhao sitting under a tree outside.
Brother Zhao spit out the grass stalk from his mouth, patted his buttocks, and walked towards Tian Lin. Before Tian Lin could ask anything, he heard him say:
"Brother, Xiao Erlang from Ten Thousand Beast Peak has come. He's waiting for you halfway up the mountain."
"Just him alone?"
"There's another person, his brother, the one who is the Sword Peak disciple at Sword Peak now."
Brother Zhao's face showed a hint of worry: "I think the two brothers have come with ill intentions, and they might be harmful to you."
"Are you talking about the position of Sword Peak disciple?"
