Aside from Chen Daoqing, there were also many members of the Chen Family and stewards and elders from Feixian Peak who rushed to pay their respects.
Wen Jiu changed into the Night Patrol Department's attire from Feixian Peak, maintaining his cultivation level at Qi Cultivation Second Layer, and altered his appearance accordingly.
If he paid respects to Chen Yebai with his true appearance, it would certainly get out, which wasn't good for Chen Daoqing.
If anyone with ulterior motives learned about it, they might exploit Chen Daoqing to test if he would leave the sect because of him.
Among ten people, perhaps nine wouldn't think this way, but what if one does and acts on it?
All the way up, Wen Jiu didn't greet anyone, and most of the disciples of Feixian Peak came and went in a hurry too. After bowing three times in front of the main hall, Wen Jiu didn't leave but instead used Divine Sense Communication to reach Chen Daoqing.
"Daoqing."
