Master Zhou Buping's funeral was held with great honor and dignity.
Not only was he an elder of the Divine Sword Sect, but he also had a Heavenly Person Disciple, hence many Divine Sword Sect elders, powerful elders, Peak Masters, and numerous Supreme Elders who were present at the sect all came to mourn for him.
Over the years, most of Zhou Buping's contemporaries from the higher echelons of the Divine Sword Sect had already passed away unless they broke through to the Celestial Realm, and those who were still alive were already of advanced age.
Finally, Li Qian placed his master's body to rest in the Sword Tomb.
After his master's passing, Li Qian took a long time to readjust his mood before wholeheartedly dedicating himself to the practice of striking the Chen Bell.
