Chapter 87: Argument and Dream of the Past
A soft look appeared on her face, trying to lighten the mood.
"When Master passed the position of Sect Leader to me, she always told me to take good care of you. After all, you are her favorite disciple. So after I came out of seclusion, I stopped by to see you. It's my fault for not informing you. I'm sorry. Don't be angry."
As the leader of a sect, he is now apologizing to his junior sister who is an elder. If this gets out, I am afraid people will laugh at him.
But she didn't care and continued to do as she pleased.
Bai Yunshu was irritated by her words. He clenched his hands in his sleeves into fists, wishing he could punch her in the face.
Even if Tao Yiye is hypocritical, she is telling the truth and no one can find any mistakes or flaws in her.
She was right. From the outside, she seemed to be the most beloved disciple of her master.
Because she is young and has a high level of comprehension, and because she is the only candidate specially trained by the master to be the best in the Way of Common People, she is the one that the master likes the most.
Among the three disciples, the master always takes the most care of Bai Yunshu. She is the first to learn the best Heart Sutra techniques and the first to pick out the magical treasures.
Even when he was about to die and pass on the throne, he just let her be an idle elder, carefree, showing his favoritism to the fullest.
But is it really a preference?
Bai Yunshu laughed at himself.
What partiality?! That was all a deliberate cultivation, making her live in guilt year after year, so it took her a long time to understand the meaning of her existence.
The master had been so kind to her before so that he could feel guilty towards her after her death, obey her words, become the person she wanted him to be, and follow her path.
She thought about struggling and resisting, but the conscience in her heart forced her to do so.
My life was saved by my Master.
It was Master who picked her up from the orphanage, raised her little by little, cultivated and taught her with care, gave her family care, and gave her a home where she could feel the warmth of the world.
I heard that because it was winter when she was picked up, her body was already blue and purple from the cold. Many people told the master to give up on her, saying that she could not be saved.
Geng Jihuan often teased her in her ears.
"You don't know, at that time, Master didn't know you were in the abandoned baby tower. When she passed by, you cried so loudly that she was attracted by the sound and stopped to look. She said that being alive in such a heavy snow was not easy, and it was also an inexplicable fate."
"There were too many baby girls in the abandoned baby tower at the time. She dug for a long time before she finally pulled you out from underneath. She also asked me and my senior sister to bury the rest."
"When you were taken out, you were so tiny, so pitiful. I originally thought you wouldn't survive."
Whenever he heard this, Bai Yunshu had a smile on his face and a bitter feeling in his heart.
There were many voices saying that she would not survive, but the master did not listen and even connected the fate of the Xuanying Sect with his own to save her life.
With the blessing of Xuanying Sect's fortune, her health gradually improved, and her understanding of cultivation became high, making her a talented disciple of Xuanying Sect. Since she was a child, she has engraved the idea of promoting Xuanying Sect in her mind.
The master was always warm and taught her well, making her understand the truth and put cultivation first, which earned her the envy and praise of everyone.
Bai Yunshu knew that he owed his master too much and could never repay it, so he would not refuse her request.
I will definitely repay the kindness of raising you, but not now.
Bai Yun was disdainful of Tao Yiye's explanation and even laughed out loud after hearing her words.
"I don't need your concern or care. Sect Master, please go back! And..."
"You said that I am the master's most beloved disciple. I really don't know how to refute this. In your eyes, all the benefits belong to me, right?"
She asked Tao Yiye back, and Tao Yiye lowered his eyes and looked at her clothes today.
It was exactly the same as what her apprentice was wearing just now...
She knew that Bai Yunshu had a lot of resentment in his heart and had no place to vent it, but she never thought that once she opened her mouth, she would make both of them unhappy.
"Yunshu, Senior Sister doesn't mean that. If you have time, can we sit down and talk quietly?"
She lowered her voice, her red dress looking gorgeous but not ostentatious at all.
Recalling the past, the prosperity was like a dream and ultimately it was all in vain.
She wanted to preserve this prosperity and keep her master's words in her heart forever, without changing them for a moment.
Tao Yiye is a stubborn person, so stubborn that she always remembers her master's words, and does her best to do whatever her master asks her to do.
After all, her life belongs to Master.
Master has no other hobbies except picking up children, and most of the ones he picks up are baby girls.
After all... there are no baby boys in the abandoned baby tower. She will take those with immortal fate back to the sect, and rescue those without immortal fate and put them at the door of a nunnery to give them a glimmer of hope.
Back then, the Xuanying Sect was extremely poor, and most of the people were hungry and helpless. It was all because of the master and other ancestors who gritted their teeth and carried on.
Hearing Tao Yiye trying to get close to him, Bai Yunshu snorted coldly.
"You are now the sect leader. You clearly know why Master treats me well, but now you keep exposing my scars. Tao Yiye, you are really great."
The master did love her and raised her to be what everyone called a favored child of heaven, but he also arbitrarily decided her fate and asked Tao Yiye to take good care of her, just to trap her here and make her a tool that could be sacrificed at any time.
Bai Yunshu didn't give her a good look. Tao Yiye just looked at her quietly and then slowly turned around.
"Forget it. I really can't reason with you. Yunshu, your disciple has something that doesn't belong to her. Return it to the sect as soon as possible."
She left this sentence and prepared to leave. Bai Yunshu was stunned by her words.
You discovered it so quickly?
That’s right, Tao Yiye’s cultivation is not exaggerated, but is achieved through real hard work.
It’s so difficult…
Bai Yunshu stared at her back and asked subconsciously.
"What are you talking about? I don't understand. I hope you will be more polite next time. Trespassing on my peak is not the behavior of a gentleman."
She was being unforgiving. Tao Yiye looked off into the distance and said, "Junior sister, it's pointless for you to pretend to be stupid. If you don't return it, I'll have the disciples of the Discipline Hall come and get it in a few days. If we make a scene, it'll be embarrassing for everyone."
"Master, are you threatening me? I said I don't know, and that's it."
Bai Yunshu looked calm.
As long as she doesn't admit it, Tao Yiye will naturally have no way to deal with her.
"What nonsense! If Master knew what you are doing now, what would he say?"
Tao Yiye knew that Bai Yunshu was protecting her apprentice, but this was no joke.
She had already given him face by not asking Yin Huan for it on the spot. If he didn't return it, who would be responsible if something happened?
