Tang Xiu glanced at Undemonized Sovereign Mo, who sat cross-legged in cultivation nearby, and replied lightly, "I have two reasons. Firstly, Dao Master Qing Feng is a good person with a righteous character. Even before the Secret Palace was opened and you were forced to fight in the Boundless Mountain Range, there were so many friends who came forward and stood up and fought with you to uphold justice. That just shows that you're a friend worth making. And I, Great Tang Heavenly Emperor, like to make friends with such people.
"Secondly, I have a friendship with Dao Master Guai from the Pristine Immortal Confucian Sect. Though what I did was not for his sake but for someone related to him, you're still his Senior Brother, so how could I just stand by and watch while you're in danger?"
