The Medicine King Is Here, Your Majesty!

"High immortal Lan Quan is here!"

The entry of the medicine King was announced by the imperial guards of the nine heavens who stood at both ends of the massive doors of Qilin palace.

"The Medicine King is here, your majesty!"

Hou Yao made his own announcement to the heavenly emperor in addition to the imperial guards, the God of Fate turned to see the most respectable immortal aside from the heavenly emperor. They both watched in anticipation as the immortal walked gallantly into the palace.

"Your Majesty! Night Immortal! God of Fate! Lan Quan greets you!"

In a formal tone, Lan Quan paid his respect to the immortals that stood in front of him, taking to his knees and bowing to the them. Night immortal was another name by which the royal advisor was known by in the nine heavens.

"Rise up, medicine king. I was just talking to Hou Yao here about you. How is that disciple of yours doing? His name is Kai Zhen, right?"

Lan Quan obeyed the voice of the heavenly emperor by standing to his feet. His face was a solemn mask as he faced the ruler of the nine heavens.

"Yes, your majesty. Kai Zhen is a cat faerie whom I took as my disciple, he is still in training stage and I'm afraid he may be unworthy to serve your majesty."
