In the spacious hall, Li Chengyi bowed deeply toward Lan Meng with great earnest.
"Bai Lu pays respects to Brother Lan Meng."
Both he and the other were disciples of Master Tian Xuanzi, but in Tian Ju Pavilion, cultivation was paramount. Beyond the master-disciple relationship, among brothers and sisters, seniority was primarily determined by cultivation level, and only among equals was generational seniority considered. Thus, he addressed the other as "brother" here..
"Back in Earth-Moon, I would often hear legends of Brother Lan Meng. Now that I have finally met you in person, Bai Lu's heart is filled with joy," Li Chengyi said with a hint of emotion.
Back then, their team had relied on a fake copy from the Eternal Wishing Book to obtain Moon Marks, and thus avoided major casualties in several Blind Spots.
Otherwise, there likely wouldn't be many of them left alive in the team now.
Therefore, he felt a considerable amount of gratitude toward Lan Meng.
