## Quotes

* It’s not important. He’s a disciple of the Fortune Shrine, how could I let anyone oppress them like that?
* Anyway, don’t worry about those things. Right now, you can’t battle, or at least, you can’t participate as Lin Feng. You can use another face and Qi to participate. Your fate is more important than the fate of a hundred people. You need to become a High-Level Saint as quickly as possible so that we can use you in battles[2434].
