An elder in tattered robes dropped to his knees before Jared, pulling a dozen frightened cultivators down with him.
"Thank you, benefactor, for saving our lives!" His voice trembled, thick with tears that refused to fail.

He bent, fingers sliding beneath the elder's elbows, and lifted him gently. "Please, stand. You were condemned on false charges. I will go to the Azure Firmament Immortal Continent myself, learn the truth, and see justice served."
