As Lan gave Richard a slight bow, the Great Shepherd by his side widened his eyes in astonishment.
Lan spoke not in Goblin language, but in Dragon Language, and the Great Shepherd did not comprehend what Lan said. Nevertheless, it seemed likely they could enter the Divine Palace.
Turning urgently to Richard, the Great Shepherd asked, "Friend, no, Sir, what did the Guardian Spirit say?"
Richard glanced at him and said to Hog, "Let this Goblin enter too."
The status of the Great Shepherd was beneficial to Richard. In the Mechanical Court, Richard had, with Tai'er's assistance, scattered the seeds of the Miracle Sect across half the Court within a year. Now in the Blood and Flesh Court, having the leader of the Lord of Flesh Church as a subordinate could facilitate spreading the seeds of the Miracle Sect throughout the Blood and Flesh Court.
Hog followed the instruction.
"This... Goblin, he is also my follower."
"Is that so? These natives have finally chosen the right person."
