An unknown amount of time passed.
When Xu Qingshan finally, slowly, recovered from his shock, he looked at the disciple before him, who remained perfectly calm, and tears suddenly welled up in his eyes.
"Wonderful… just wonderful…"
His lips trembled as he grabbed Jiang Che's arm, speaking incoherently. "Che'er… you… you've truly… made your master so proud!"
Seeing his master weeping with joy, Jiang Che's heart warmed.
He quickly recited the story he had prepared.
He claimed he had received the complete inheritance of True Master Bai Yi. On top of that, with a bit of excellent luck and a sudden flash of insight during his recent seclusion, he had managed a fortunate breakthrough.
Naturally, he didn't mention a single word about the crucial True Essence Pill or the fact that he had personally killed Xie Songnian.
Xu Qingshan, already dizzy with overwhelming joy, was in no state to be suspicious.
