"Junior Brother Bai, I don't quite understand what you're saying."
Senior Brother Yu's smile faded. "We hit it off immediately, and I only said a few words. Why are you taking it so seriously?"
To avoid misunderstanding, Senior Brother Yu wanted to confirm it specifically.
Bai Cang laughed upon hearing this, "What are you saying, Senior Brother Yu? Didn't I already say that I would never tell Master Han about the journey halfway?"
Yes, just as you think!
After all, you've slandered my "dear master" and "beloved family and friends."
This will cost extra!
"Junior Brother Bai, one should be kind and considerate!"
Senior Brother Yu's face darkened. "How can you do things like this? Besides, there's no proof. What evidence do you have to prove that I said those things?"
Bai Cang smiled calmly, "It seems that Senior Brother Yu has a deep misunderstanding about me."
"In that case, I'll take my leave now!"
"As the saying goes, time reveals all. I'm sure Senior Brother Yu will see my kind and honest side!"
If we don't see eye to eye, a word is too much. Let's just wait and see.
That's just how we "Hanmen" do things!
Steamed buns? You disagree?!
"Wait a minute!"
Seeing that Bai Cang was about to get up, Senior Brother Yu quickly stopped him, saying, "It seems that I have indeed judged you by my own petty standards."
"Well then, since this is our first meeting, and I am quite wealthy, why don't you take a look around this house and see if there's anything you like? Consider it a small gift, or perhaps an apology for my mistake."
For Brother Yu, any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem at all; spending money to ward off disaster is the best solution.
In short: He is quite wealthy and has plenty of money!
He was just unhappy about being "extorted" by Bai Cang, and he didn't want to be outdone.
Seeing that Bai Cang was unyielding, Senior Brother Yu also didn't want to get entangled with him any further.
Damn it! Just consider it a dog bite!
Dogs biting people is normal; people can't just bite back, can they?
Thinking about it this way, Senior Brother Yu suddenly felt much better.
"No, no, you can't do that!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Cang blushed and said, "Actually, I am a pill refiner."
Upon hearing this, Senior Brother Yu couldn't help but gasp: "Damn! You little brat, what a huge appetite you have! Aren't you afraid of stuffing yourself to death?"
Anything related to alchemy is damn cheap; it has no drawbacks other than being expensive.
However, Senior Brother Yu was a man of principle, and his word was his bond. He immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Of course, I have a few pill formulas here, how about..."
Bai Cang quickly waved his hand, "Senior Brother Yu, you flatter me. The pill formula is so precious, how could I dare to accept such a reward without having done any work for it?"
Still not satisfied with the prescription? Are you trying to make an outrageous demand?
Senior Brother Yu's eyes widened. "Ahem, I have a few old, dilapidated alchemy furnaces here, I wonder..."
Damn it! I'll put up with you this one last time.
If I ever have to deal with you again, I'll be a dog!
Brother Yu, who tried to steal a chicken but ended up losing more than he gained, is now kicking himself!
Bai Cang shook his head vigorously, "I already have a teacher, and I have been given a cauldron of pills. I dare not accept such a generous gift from my senior brother."
Don't you dare push your luck!
Senior Brother Yu's eyes widened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Then what does Junior Brother think is appropriate?"
Bai Cang smiled shyly, "I heard that other alchemists also have alchemical fire..."
You son of a bitch, this is outrageous!
Upon hearing this, Senior Brother Yu could no longer contain himself and slammed his fist on the table. "Do you know the value of a single Dan Fire? Selling you whole wouldn't be enough!"
With such a huge appetite, aren't you afraid of stuffing yourself to death?!
"Why are you angry, Senior Brother Yu? I was just saying that, and I didn't ask you for anything."
Bai Cang's face was full of innocent expression, but the mockery in his eyes was telling the other party without any attempt to hide it: I'm asking for the moon, what can you do about it?
You think you can get away with offending the Taoist priest? You probably don't know how he built his fortune.
If "Senior Brother Yu" hadn't dug a hole for himself, Bai Cang truly had no intention of offending such a powerful figure who wielded authority, possessed formidable cultivation, and had a profound background.
But since the opponent has made a move, he must bite back hard.
Moreover, you must bite so hard that you hurt the other person, tear off a piece of "Senior Brother Yu's" flesh, and make him bleed profusely.
Otherwise, Bai Cang's character would not hold up, and his actions in dealing with the guard boys would be seen as a laughing stock for bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
By then, there will probably be even more people who think they have a strong foundation coming to cause him trouble.
In short, it all comes down to this: a good start prevents a hundred more.
From the perspective of making an example of someone, "Brother Yu" is a hundred or even a thousand times better than the young Taoist priest on duty.
I'm not even afraid of the head of the guest hall and the leader of the eight stewards. If others want to cause trouble, wouldn't they think twice?
If this "battle" is successful, Bai Cang's "mad dog persona" will be firmly established!
The days to come will be much better, at least we'll be spared a lot of unnecessary trouble!
Of course, the more crucial reason is that he only needs one more spirit fire to accumulate enough offerings for his promotion and gain another cheat code!
Compared to the "immense wealth," what does offending "Senior Brother Yu" matter?
In any case, Bai Cang would never back down, much less let go of this fat sheep that had come to his door.
You handed me your weakness, so who else can you blame?
If Bai Cang didn't take drastic measures, he would feel he would be letting himself down and unworthy of being a Heshan native!
"Do you think that by becoming a disciple of Uncle Han, you can secure your position as a true successor of the Heshan lineage?"
Just then, Senior Brother Yu suddenly sneered: "According to the general rules: all new disciples must perform miscellaneous duties for three years before they can be granted the 'Boyhood Register' and formally begin their cultivation."
“All those who enter the Daoist path must serve for three years, and their merits and demerits will be examined before the best ones are selected to be granted the Taoist ordination certificate, registered, and listed in the inner sect of Heshan.”
"After another three years, the best among the Taoist priests will be selected to be granted the Yellow Crown Register and listed in the true lineage of Heshan."
At this point, Senior Brother Yu said meaningfully, "Junior Brother Bai, although you have become a disciple of Uncle Han, you have no experience in studying or working at the main temple, nor have your merits and demerits been verified. This is against the rules!"
"Most importantly: the ordination ceremony is held every three years. Unfortunately, the last ordination was held just three months ago, and you have already missed the best opportunity."
"If you don't have a capable person to speak up for you in the council of the three capitals, you'll probably have to stay in my guest room for another three years!"
After saying that, Senior Brother Yu puffed out his chest with a hint of smugness, as if to say: "Beg me, and I'll speak up for you."
Do you really think that he, as the head of the eight deacons, is so easy to manipulate?
I was just careless for a moment and didn't dodge. I underestimated you, you little brat, which is why you were able to sneak up on me without any martial ethics.
Now, the balance of power has shifted!
For the next three years, you'll likely be working under me. Scared yet?
Hearing this, Bai Cang smiled slightly, "In that case, I'll have to trouble you to take care of me for the next three years, Senior Brother!"
Even the Heavenly King himself is here! Today I'm going to extort a single spark of elixir from you!
Even the Jade Emperor couldn't do anything about it, I'm telling you!
[Still running a high fever, my manuscript reserves are exhausted, I desperately need encouragement]
