The "Monk" was responsible for supervising the temple order and discipline.
To hold this position and concurrently perform the duties of the Law Enforcement Hall, Cheng Jue's status within the temple was certainly not ordinary.
Cheng Jue was also straightforward in speaking, not concealing anything, as he inquired about the origins of Li Yan and company, as well as their purpose in Han Yang.
It seemed that even within the Law Enforcement Hall, information was not flowing freely.
Li Yan had a grasp of the situation and responded calmly.
When he heard that they had taken on many tasks at the City God Temples in Yunyang and Yichang, and had connections with the Law Enforcement Hall, the doubt in Cheng Jue's eyes visibly diminished a great deal.
"So it's Donor Li, I have also heard of you. Breaking the Ghost Sect's scheme for the Nine-headed Phoenix Vein, a boundless merit indeed, my apologies."
"No harm done."
Li Yan felt a hint of goodwill towards this monk.
