By the time Yang An returned to the original location of the Ten Thousand Buddha State with the help of a Magical Artifact, the Joyful Shrine Association was already over.
He had previously told Guang'an that he would return to the Great Virtue Temple when the Joyful Shrine Association ended. Guang'an must have already reported this news to the temple, which should be enough to keep those bald monks placated for a short while.
As the Buddha's Son, he was required to report his departures from the Great Virtue Temple, but a slight delay outside wouldn't cause any major issues.
However, time was of the essence now. Whatever he needed to do, he had to do it quickly.
Yang An already had a plan.
The first step was, naturally, to head to San Valley City in Zichuan State, which was under the Golden Thread Pavilion's jurisdiction, and retrieve Wen Yin from the Mystic Path Sect.
