Wu Long's second conversation with the Head of the Helian Family and his wife, closer to the evening of the first day of Wu Long's stay in the Helian Household, lasted for several hours, and was seemingly in a much more somber tone, as Helian Muyang who came into the room after Wu Long left, saw his parents exchanging meaningful looks, seemingly both deep in heavy thoughts.
In the morning of the second day, Wu Long was approached by the Elder who was until then unsuccessful in getting close to him.
"Daoist Wu"
"I think we understood each other well yesterday, Elder Helian. If it is about Yuanjie, I have absolutely no relation to that situation you got yourself into", Wu Long spoke shaking his head, speaking without the usual double-speak that nobles were so used to.
This put Helian Muyang's uncle into a stunned silence, as he wasn't expecting such a blunt response. But this also made it abundantly clear to him where Wu Long stood.
