"But if I leave now, I will never come back!" The purple-robed celestial master said angrily, waving his sleeve.
"Is he just putting on an act, and we'll see the truth once he enters the house? The Taoist priest is leaving before he even enters. If the viewers in the live stream find out, won't they think the Taoist priest is scared?"
"Furthermore, the Ji family has never been stingy."
Ji Lu comforted him.
The phrase "The Ji family has never been stingy" made the purple-robed celestial master stop in his tracks.

The paint on the gate was mostly peeling off, and it looked old and faded.
The door creaked open, like a rusty gear turning.
A gust of cold wind blew out, making Xiang Xinyang shiver and sneeze.
The compass in the purple-robed celestial master's hand spun rapidly, making it impossible to distinguish east from west or north from south.
