Jiang Lin returned three days later.
Nothing much had changed. The only thing that changed was that he stopped bringing the rumor up. It seemed that he had already realized the mistake he had made.
Chen Jingzhai chuckled in his head as he asked Hong Chan to arrange a room for Jiang Lin to stay in.
The truth was that no one was plotting anything against him. The person who had spread that rumor was none other than Sage Xu herself.
She wanted to direct the attention of the disciples of the Will Celestial Clan, the Serenity Hollow Clan, and even the northern nobles.
If Chen Jingzhai had not stayed in Donglai County the whole time after he came down from the mountains, people would've already kicked his door down.
Living one's life as a cultivator did not mean one had to live alone. Getting married would help out a lot in their training as well.
