Liu Zhinan hurriedly climbed to his feet and dashed toward the staircase.
Only after descending the stairs did he dare voice the complaints in his heart.
"Wasn't it you, old man, who asked me to go up and have a chat?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a muffled boom was heard, and the entire building shook as if struck by an earthquake.
Liu Zhinan rushed out of the building's entrance and shouted loudly, "Master, stop knocking, the whole thing will collapse if you keep at it! Isn't it enough that I am leaving?"
As soon as these words were out, the shaking terrace suddenly stilled and instantly reverted to its original stability.
The change was so abrupt, it was almost as if the previous tremors had been an illusion.
Liu Zhinan pulled out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"Good grief, to be hundreds of years old and still have such a temper. Aren't you afraid of getting overheated?"
