Chapter 510: Chapter 22: Fighting for the Great Heavenly Proud! Who Will Win? (Vote for the Monthly Ticket)_3
Happy that his apprentice has become a Great Heavenly Proud apprentice, yet worried because the apprentice had offended others before she even officially began her training.
This must be handled carefully at this moment.
He immediately shouted in rebuke, âShang Jiping, even if you have doubts about the origins of the childâs cultivation technique, you should not be so callous? Canât you at least ask nicely?â
âMaster, I was wrong.â Shang Jiping bowed his head in apology.
Immediately, the Master of Primordial Water adopted a kinder expression looking at Wang Liyao. âLiyao, this was all a misunderstanding caused by a misunderstanding. Regarding Elder Shang, I will certainly severely criticize him. Tell me how you want him to compensate you, the Master will decide for you.â
UnexpectedlyâŠ
...
Wang Liyao pouted her lips and turned her head away, not wanting to speak, let alone explain or debate with the Master of Primordial Water.
The Master of Primordial Water thought she was being childish. Despite him, a respected Master, apologizing, she was still upset? A hint of annoyance crossed his mind. However, he was patient because after all, she was a Great Heavenly Proud apprentice, an extraordinary disciple he could hardly come across in his lifetime.
Suddenly!
Lu Xianghui darted out from the crowd and knelt down before the Master of Primordial Water. Despite being terrified, he spoke loudly, âMaster, the situation is not as Elder Shang said. The truth isâŠâ
Then he went into detail about what had happened, without siding with Wang Liyao or Shang Lexian and Elder Shang.
âMy junior sister, no, Miss Liyao, only intervened to prevent the disciples from being bullied. I hope the Master understands,â Lu Xianghui bowed continuously, âif the Master does not believe me, there are many disciples present who can testify.â
The faces of Wang Shouzhe and Wang Longyan became increasingly grim. Elder Shang was pushing them too far! To cover up for his own clan, he constantly tried to suppress Liyao. What if Liyao wasnât able to persist until they arrived?
The Master of Primordial Water also looked increasingly displeased. If what this ordinary disciple said was true, wouldnât his lineage have committed a grave wrongdoing, seriously offending his future Great Heavenly Proud apprentice?
As he was about to speakâŠ
Wang Shouzhe beat him to it, â Master, I suggest we just let this matter rest, thereâs no need to investigate who was wrong.â
The Master of Primordial Water looked relieved, âThank you, Shouzhe for your magnanimity. But donât worry. I will solve this issue for Liyao.â
âNo, what I mean is, the previous agreement of my daughter paying respects to you, letâs cancel that.â Wang Shouzhe said, âPrior to this, my daughter came to your lineage to take a look, but she didnât expect to experience such an unpleasant event. Iâm afraid it has left a shadow in her heart. She stated already that she does not want to join your lineage anymore. Therefore, whether or not this matter is investigated doesnât matter anymore.â
âWhatâŠâ The Master of Primordial Water was a bit overwhelmed. âShouzhe, a previously agreed matter cannot be changed just because of a whim, especially after Liyao has already practiced our lineageâs cultivation technique! Letâs discuss this again.â
âMaster!â
Although Wang Shouzheâs expression looked respectful, his tone had become firm. âAlthough there was an agreement before, itâs concerning that the atmosphere of your lineage is so pervasive. A glimpse of an object is enough to understand its whole. Bullying disciples is certainly not the first incident. For the sake of such a learning environment, I, as a father, will not allow my child to be pushed into a âpit of fireâ.â
Pit of fire?
The Master of Primordial Water almost choked. Having lived for more than six hundred years, he naturally understood the real meaning behind Wang Shouzheâs words. Although he verbally said he didnât care, he actually did.
His underlying intentions were clearly expressed. In case the resolution doesnât satisfy themâŠ
Regardless, Elder Shang was his former core disciple, and has also carried many burdens for the lineage of the Primordial Water on normal days. At the moment, he found it hard to make a harsh decision.
While the Master of Primordial Water hesitated, Wang Shouzhe shook his head and sighed, âItâs clear that the Master is kind-hearted based on this encounter. The rotten atmosphere of this lineage is most likely due to your kind personality and dislike of intervention.â
âMaster of Primordial Water, I hope youâll forgive my boldness, I acknowledge that my position is humble, but as a clan leader, I understand the importance of rules! The current atmosphere of your lineage is closely related to your moderate and free-spirited character. â
âMy Liyao may not suit your lineageâs style.â By this time, Wang Shouzhe was convinced that the lineage of Primordial Water was not suitable for Liyao, nor did it match her personality, and he directly rejected the offer, âAs for Liyao learning the cultivation technique of your lineage, itâs impossible to make her forget it. So, Iâll take Liyao to the Lingyun Sacred Land to take a look. After all, the Academic Palace of Purple Abode is a branch of the Holy Landâs inheritance⊠It doesnât mean that Liyao is breaking the rules.â
The Master of Primordial Water almost choked, astounded. What? The Heavenly Proud disciple he had been looking forward to for years, was going to slip away just like that? Even with his gentle and non-competitive character, he was starting to harbour huge grudges against Elder Shang.
âThank you, Daddy.â Wang Liyaoâs eyes were agitated, and she looked at her father gratefully. Her father was so supportive of her, even though she was stubborn and did not want to enter the Academic Palace, that he wasnât afraid of offending the Master.
âIf you refuse to go, Daddy wonât force you.â Wang Shouzhe fondly smoothed her hair, âYou just need to accompany Daddy to the capital of the Great Qian Land, and then sign up at the Lingyun Sacred Land. Daddy believes that with your talent, Lingyun Sacred Land will definitely accept you!â
