Tian Yu looked at the other people, and they all shook their heads at the same time.
"Sect Master, that girl is very ambitious. She doesn't even respect you, let alone us. I'm afraid she'll shut us down as soon as we speak."
"Yeah, she probably hasn't even mentioned us to Senior Sister Wu, so she probably doesn't take us seriously."
"..."
During the Song Dynasty, Song Shi said, "We've had enough of this girl's temper these past few days. She's not someone you can easily get along with. If it really doesn't work out, let's go back."
"Go back? The guesthouse might throw our luggage out right now." The youngest member, Sun Shang, cautiously reminded everyone that if he remembered correctly, they had only paid for their rooms up to yesterday.
They haven't gone back all night; I hope they don't lose the clothes they brought with them.
They all remembered this incident during the Song Dynasty. If it were before, they wouldn't have looked down on those few pieces of clothing, but things are different now.
Even if they wanted to go back now, they would still have to raise the travel expenses, not to mention the change of clothes. With supplies so scarce here, where would they get cloth coupons?
"I'll go back and check. If it's really not possible, I'll bring the clothes over." Ma Jinhui quickly stood up. Rather than facing Hua Xiangyun and offending her to death, he would rather do some manual labor.
If it were us, we would probably do the same thing, or even go further.
Hua Xiangyun sneered, "What is fairness? Why did Elder Tian pass the position of sect leader to one of my disciples? Why did he pass it to his own son?"
But that person is not going to back down. If we keep dragging this out, we'll hold on on our own first.
Song Shi was also afraid that Hua Xiangyun would use some means to trap us or something, so he said, "Sect Leader, if it's really feasible, then let's make the difficult decision to part with it."
"You're definitely one of them, taking advantage of others and then hiding away to gloat. How dare you be so shameless? Again and again, you keep trying to beg for even less."
They want to talk to me, so I'm giving them the chance. Just look how thick-skinned they are.
Sun Shang quickly followed, "I'll go with you, so we can help each other if anything happens."
When that time comes, they'll definitely try to play the victim and say they can get some help, but that's just reopening old wounds and getting scolded.
What's wrong with giving them less attention if they're their own flesh and blood?
The grandmaster clutched the storage bag under his chest. This was a treasure that Tianzheng Sect had never possessed before, but it only contained some magical artifacts and array flags.
Hua Xiangyun had no intention of asking us to leave; instead, she turned around and closed the door, saying, "Let's talk right there."
Originally, their next generation's grudges had nothing to do with you, but you still insisted on bringing them into your lap.
Releasing them out would at least ensure they have enough to eat and wear for a while, but how long could those people last?
Why didn't he talk to his fellow disciples about what it means to treat everyone equally and what it means to be fair?
"Let's talk about it before dawn," the master said, not giving a definitive answer. We've reached a dead end. If Hua Xiangyun really does act as she does now, even if it's the most difficult thing in the world, I'll have no choice but to make a decision.
What's even more insidious is that he just mentioned some kindness in raising them. Surely you're not mistaken, the Heavenly Array Sect was founded by you, Yin Bo. They are all your disciples and grand-disciples, Tian Yu. Their skills and wealth all came from you, Tian Yu.
Before trying to connect with someone emotionally, consider what they have sacrificed.
"What do we do now?" The few who stayed behind were all willing to be the first to step forward.
Grandmaster suppressed his anger. If I could persuade Hua Xiangyun to help us settle down today, I would be happy to see all the magical artifacts in my storage bag safe.
During the Song Dynasty, "..." How much did the seven of them, father and sons, squander? How much of their family fortune did they take with them? Now they can't even save 1%.
"Don't even think about it. This is the legacy your father left behind, the foundation of our sect. You're just wasting our resources."
We learned our lesson from our encounters with you several times. Does he think I'd take pity on us or take us in just because we're not good at eating?
We're all in the same boat, and we hope they can lend a hand when you're facing the toughest time.
Hua Xiangyun raised an eyebrow at me. "Why pretend to be clear-headed when you're out there? What was the situation back then? They were probably even more confused than you, since you only heard it from your master, while they experienced it firsthand."
"You think we have nothing to talk about, but they keep blocking our way again and again, and you're getting annoyed. Tell me about it, and after hearing what they did before, you'll give up."
Hua Xiangyun had no idea that she would see those same faces again early in the morning.
Your father was your teacher, after all. Even if there hadn't been some misunderstanding back then and the two sides had no further contact, the kindness of your father in teaching you would always remain.
Song Shi watched the scene with a hint of schadenfreude. His master's head must have been thoroughly filled by his master; there must be nothing but mud around his brain.
The two turned and left without even waiting for Tian Yu's reply. Their hurried and flustered appearance made it seem as if they had left something valuable at the guesthouse.
"If we're really talking about gratitude and filial piety, do they feel they're not qualified to talk to you about those things from outside?"
The old sect leader didn't leave anything behind, but our grandmaster valued those things highly. If Jing Shi had so few fellow cultivators, and had been more cautious in making a move, we could still have made a living.
However, she was a sensible young maid who coaxed and lied to us, saying that we were not living outside that courtyard yet.
"Hua Xiangyun, you need to talk to him." Yin Bo has lost his former arrogance. Although I am now the sect leader of Tianzheng Sect, it is only in name.
Song Shi then pointed to the small door behind him and said, "That girl is heartless. We've never even met or interacted with her. She has no feelings for us whatsoever."
“But we’re not even at our easiest point yet, we can’t even eat.” Song Shi knew my words would offend people, but I had to say it. “Wu Chenxi is obviously avoiding us. If you keep showing up, we won’t be able to wait until you come back.”
When our master met Song, none of us intended to speak. We could only say, "You know his master wanted to see you, but it's a fact that you and he are from the same school."
You think Tian Yu was too kind to them? I heard that when Tian Yu took in his disciples, they were all orphans with nowhere to go. That was like giving us a shortcut in life. How did we ever repay him?
Knowing that those people would bother me again, I delayed leaving the house by ten minutes.
The grandmaster lowered his head. "These are all future grudges. He was vague and only heard one side of the story. They are both disciples of Yin Bo. Have I, Tian Yu, treated them equally?"
Even if I resent Tian Yu for keeping things to himself and leaving all the bad stuff to Senior Sister Wu, what can I do?
