The two expressed their deep gratitude and bowed once more to thank the elder.
The elder gently stroked his beard and said with a smile, "No need for formalities. If you can achieve something on the path of cultivation, it will be the best reward for me. Remember, cultivation is not only a pursuit of power but also a journey of self-cultivation. May you hold fast to your true selves and not be swayed by worldly temptations."
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang nodded solemnly, committing the elder's words to memory.
...
Soon after, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang left as well.
They both felt a bit curious about what they had just witnessed.
Shouldn't those powerful cultivators transcend the mundane and regard all things as insignificant?
Why was that cultivator so approachable?
It was indeed a bit strange.
However, they didn't spend too much time pondering it.
Since they had already seized the opportunity, it was naturally time for them to leave this Red Maple Forest.
"Let's go."
