Looking at Nian Wanzhou, who seemed somewhat gloating yet utterly fearless, and in stark contrast to the pitiful, trembling Lexi…

Song Yan... had nothing to say.

At first, Song Yan felt that his junior brother and sister-in-law's relationship had improved, and that his junior sister was even able to suppress his rebellious junior brother, which made him very happy.

At one point, it was thought to be a good omen, that Lexi was being manipulated.

Turns out… ha, he was overthinking it. They'd barely met and were already at odds again. How could he expect them to get along peacefully?

The Grand Elder, who had rushed over, also had a dark expression on his face, looking utterly disappointed: "You, Lexi, why are you two fighting again?"

"Tell me, what exactly happened!"

He was truly at his wit's end. These two disciples were always fighting whenever they met. What was they trying to do?

"Master, I started this. I couldn't stand him bullying me and disturbing Senior Sister from passing on her advancement experience to Senior Brother, so I attacked Second Senior Brother." Nian Wanzhou crossed the Le River and took the lead in admitting her mistake.

She can stir up trouble, but she can't falsely accuse someone and make Lexi take the blame.

Lexi had bullied her, and she had fought back. Some people had also taught Lexi that she didn't need to do anything bad again.

Grand Elder: ?

"you……"

The elder looked at his two disciples, utterly exasperated, and shook his head repeatedly: "You two..."

"Can't we just get along peacefully? Why are you always fighting, fellow disciples? Wanwan, since you started this, I'm punishing you by putting you in solitary confinement, and no one is allowed to visit you."

Nian Wanzhou wanted to scratch his head, but oh, his claws couldn't reach it.

Forgot to turn back into a human~

"Yes, Master." Obediently, he transformed back into human form and walked back, not forgetting to look at Wei Wenru pitifully. Fortunately, Wei Wenru and the others' affairs were not disturbed.

Anyway, she had snacks and toys given to her by her senior, so she wouldn't be bored even if she was put in solitary confinement.

Moreover, she borrowed a lot of books to read, and wasn't flustered at all!

Lexi: Your father's speechlessness...

"Second brother, since it was Wanwan's fault this time, I won't punish you. However, your senior sister and the others were discussing their promotion, and you really shouldn't have gone to disturb them. You did a terrible job of showing respect for elders and showing love for the young." The First Elder said with a sense of disappointment. He knew that this disciple had never been very sociable since childhood and didn't like to befriend his fellow disciples.

Moreover, his favorite person has always been his senior sister, and he is only happy to follow Wei Wenru. Unfortunately, everyone knows that Wei Wenru and his senior brother are deeply in love and have gone through countless big and small things together.

Even though the relationship hasn't been officially revealed yet, everyone knows it's a very promising thing.

"You'll be punished by having to go to school more often and study hard."

"Yes, Master, I regret not considering it more thoroughly, and I am willing to accept the punishment," Le Xi said dejectedly. He would never fight with that bastard again.

The Grand Elder was even more troubled by his attitude, but still had to appease Le Xi: "Alright, go back and cultivate diligently. This incident was indeed not your fault. However, you must remember that you are not allowed to disturb your senior sisters' cultivation without permission in the future. I will have Wen Ru teach you later."

"Yes, disciple will obey your orders." Le Xi's expression softened somewhat, and then she withdrew.

The elder sighed. His five disciples were all more troublesome than the last.

His daughter, who is obsessed with cultivation and not very close to him; his eldest disciple, who covets his daughter but is also talented and well-liked by him; his second disciple, a troublesome and socially awkward fool who also covets his daughter; and his third disciple, a clingy follower who loves taking care of dolls...

And then there's the youngest, most sensible, and most capable apprentice, but recently he seems to have gone through a rebellious phase, becoming disobedient and often fighting with the second apprentice.

Look at her disheveled appearance when she turned back into human form; she had several bumps on her head and several scrapes on her hands and feet.

Even his clothes had several holes in them, I don't know how they got there.

And her hair, which was pulled haphazardly by Le Xi, looked like a bird's nest.

And her eyes are all red and swollen. Has this child been wronged and cried again?

Sigh, these apprentices of mine are really a handful.

Thinking of this, the elder sighed several times. He regretted not raising so many children in the first place, as they all coveted his daughter!

"You two..." The First Elder turned around and looked helplessly at Song Yan, whose eyes were full of pink bubbles, and Wei Wenru, who was worried about the dragon cub.

“Since we’re not ready for the promotion yet, let’s not rush it. We still haven’t found out why Wenru encountered that accident. Let’s take it easy for now, Ayan.”

Song Yan respectfully replied, "Yes."

"I will listen to Master. Master, please rest assured. As for Junior Brother and Second Junior Brother, Senior Sister and I will offer them more words of comfort."

The Grand Elder simply nodded, glancing at the two of them several times, his meaning crystal clear. He had seen through the change in their relationship at a glance; if he weren't satisfied with his eldest disciple, he would have driven this pig away long ago.

Oh.

Then he walked away with his hands behind his back.

Wei Wenru watched the two people and her father leave with a complicated expression. Since her father had already spoken, she couldn't interfere.

I just didn't expect Father to find out so quickly.

Moreover, they were distracted for a moment and the two kids started fighting. They thought they were getting along well and could get along peacefully...

They're overthinking it.

Song Yan glanced cautiously at Wei Wenru, noticing her pale face, and asked, "Senior Sister, are you upset? Those two should be fine; Junior Sister isn't the type to hold grudges."
