Yao Jizhong still wanted to give her something; he didn't want her to have troubled herself for nothing.
Shangguan Jing quickly advised, "If she says there is no need for payment, then there's no need to give anything. Qin Zhao surely isn't in want of worldly possessions. We, who are engaged in cultivation, value the law of karma most of all. Being able to help you is in itself a good deed."
As a fellow member of the Heavenly Master Sect, Shangguan Jing had recognized the merits bestowed upon Yao Jizhong, which was why he had helped him multiple times. Offering assistance to such a kind soul, one whose soul radiated with golden light, was also forming a good connection.
"Alright, but I will always remember Qin's kindness in my heart!"
Yao Jizhong looked at them gratefully, "If there is anything you need help with in the future, Qin, you can come to me; don't be polite! I have been the Principal of the Imperial University for many years and still have quite a network of contacts."
