After Cheng Xinzhan returned to the sect, he only stayed about ten days.
The Dragon Lord left at the end of February, and on the first day of the third month he was summoned by Daoist Shengying, who had come calling him to Gezao Mountain.
When Daoist Shengying explained his purpose, Three Pure Ones Mountain could not refuse.
Gezao Mountain had given a great deal of aid to the founding and establishment of the Three Pure Ones Mountain, and even now, Moyai Mountain and Danxia Mountain still regarded Gezao as an outer branch.
Cheng Xinzhan could not refuse either.
After all, when he had secretly learned the sect’s sealing scripture, the Supreme Dongxuan Lingbao Infinite-Salvation Superior Scripture, up on Tianshao Mountain, they had not made an issue of it.
This time the welcoming ritual for the Dragon Lord was their design, and they had also taught him the Dongxuan Lingbao Ascending Profundity Step-Void Chapter.
With such favors, and now only a simple invitation to give a lecture and use their scripture pavilion — what was there to refuse?
He stayed at Gezao Mountain for a full three months.
On the first day of June, not far from Gezao, Daoist Zhenchang, the deputy sect master of Sanyuan Mountain, came to call for him.
