"Your Majesty, your servant shall take his leave now," Li Changzhou said, rising to his feet with a smile.
"You may go, Taoist master. Once I have made a decision, an imperial edict will be sent to you," the Emperor responded.
Li Changzhou, accompanied by Turquoise Pool, bowed again before walking out of the side hall. As soon as his foot crossed the threshold, he vanished from everyone's sight.
"Master Shenxiao is truly an Immortal!" Huang Jin exclaimed in amazement.
The Emperor Jiajing's emotions gradually calmed down, and he once again sat cross-legged on the cushioned platform.
"Master," Huang Jin suddenly bent down, his hand lightly touching the ground, "What is this? Did the master not ascend to heaven?"
Turning his gaze, the Emperor discovered it was just dust, shed from his movements a moment ago.
Upon seeing the gray dust, Emperor Jiajing burst into laughter again, slapping his knee and shouting, "Good! Good! Good!"
