"Where did you go wrong?" the elder asked earnestly, his expression revealing a deep disappointment in him.
etc?
Who went?
"Who did you send? Explain yourself!" The old man exploded, and he was even complaining about his grandfather's preserved eggs.
"Junior Sister..." Le Xi was a little confused. Why did they all care so much about that little bean sprout? She was clearly useless, yet they insisted on practicing body cultivation.
It's really in the way.
If it weren't for her, why would my senior sister waste so much time teaching her and spending time with her?
There was no longer any extra time to guide him, and because of Nian Wanzhou, he was no longer willing to pay attention to her at the end of each night.
She even...lost her temper at him.
He hated this girl even more than his third junior brother, that lackey. At this moment, Le Xi wished that Nian Wanzhou could disappear.
But he still has to face his master's wrath...
"What exactly do you want to do, Lexi!" The elder suddenly raised his voice, the anger burning in his eyes almost burning his entire face.
"I did nothing wrong, Master." Le Xi felt extremely wronged, tears welling up in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall. "Junior Sister went up willingly; I didn't force her!"
He tried to argue his way out of it.
"Le Xi! I don't care how you used to dislike getting close to Wen Ru's junior brothers and sisters, but you can't do anything to harm your fellow disciples!"
"Do you even know how old your junior sister is? You pushed her onto the sparring platform?"
"She's only a year old, she just hatched from her egg last year, not some old man like you who's over a hundred. You're just recklessly throwing her onto the sparring platform like that. What if something happens to her? How can you guarantee her safety?"
"She...she's alright, isn't she?" Le Xi looked at the Grand Elder guiltily, inwardly cursing herself for making a fool of herself this time.
He never expected that the child really was... a child.
"Le Xi, this time, you have only yourself to blame!"
"Go back to your cave and be confined for a month. You are not to come out without my order until your cultivation level is improved." The Grand Elder angrily turned and left, leaving everyone with a cold and ruthless back view.
Looking at the empty room, Lexi felt a pang of sadness. She had been careless this time; so many people had sided with her.
I thought nothing would happen, that my senior sister would be as forgiving as before, and that my master wouldn't be angry.
Make him compensate with something nice.
I never expected my master and senior sister to be so ruthless. I feel incredibly resentful, but I have no choice but to admit my guilt; it was my fault. Damn it, that brat! I'll make it up to her next time.
Lexi lowered her head, her eyes glistening with tears, like a stray dog abandoned by its owner.
...
Nian Wanzhou curled up in Wei Wenru's arms, staring blankly at the sky outside the window, her mind replaying the scene that had just happened.
Sigh, I'm so tired.
It was her first time getting into a big fight, and it was really too much for her. She was still a one-year-old baby and had to start physical training and fighting.
Although we won, it was so embarrassing.
That damned Lexi, that scheming green tea guy, she'll definitely take a detour if she ever sees him again.
"Wanwan, are you alright?" Wei Wenru saw the child looking dazed and wondered what had happened to her, since there were no injuries on her body when she checked her earlier.
"I'm fine, senior sister. I just don't understand why everyone is targeting me. I don't think I've done anything wrong." Nian Wanzhou voiced her concerns, as she really wanted to know why.
Is it because the villains are targeting her?
Thinking about it this way, she doesn't seem to have done anything wrong, so it must be the villains targeting her.
"Actually... I don't understand it either." Wei Wenru shook her head. She really didn't know why this group of young senior brothers and sisters were so protective of their own, even their master was no exception.
Nian Wanzhou: "Hmm?"
“In the past, everyone was very friendly. But when I was fifty, a conflict broke out among the sect members, and things spiraled out of control. The matter had been resolved, but it started again after you came.”
"But don't worry, this has nothing to do with you. It's because of the existence of that black mist. It's just that you've had a hard time, being bullied by so many people. Sigh." Wei Wenru sighed. She knew that Nian Wanzhou was simple and kind-hearted, but she never expected that she would encounter such a change.
This is not at all her fault, poor child.
"Senior sister, you don't need to comfort me. I know, I'm not really feeling anything, just a little down." Nian Wanzhou sighed sadly. She didn't want her senior sister to worry about her so much, making her seem like a troublemaker.
"Silly girl." Wei Wenru patted Nian Wanzhou's head and smiled indulgently. "Go back and rest. You overdid it with your training today. Are you tired?"
This silly girl is such a lovely and sensible little darling.
"I'm not tired, it's actually not bad, senior sister. I didn't think too much when we were fighting. After the fight, I just felt wronged, but I wasn't injured."
Nian Wanzhou suddenly leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Senior sister, actually I won't get hurt. No matter how much they hit me, I'll be fine. My armor is super, super thick!!"
Seeing her looking like she was telling an adult a little secret, both mysterious and adorable, Wei Wenru's heart melted.
"I know, but you can't do that again next time, okay? You might get hurt. Just wait for me."
The two whispered to each other.
When Nian Wanzhou returned to his cave, he lay on the bed, his mind completely blank.
She suddenly didn't want to go out to train anymore. Even if she did go out, she wanted to avoid everyone because it was too stifling.
As expected of the cultivation world, where the strong are respected, yet someone can still be bullied by a group of people.
They didn't do anything, and they certainly didn't lay a hand on her. They just forced her to go up there when that person was targeting her.
If she weren't so tough and resilient, she might have been beaten up badly. Looks like she needs to get used to it soon.
To become stronger.
We can't keep being bullied.
However, she is still too weak and doesn't want to be too eager for quick success; she needs to cultivate slowly.
However, it's amazing that this was the fiercest and most intense fight she's ever had, and she didn't get injured at all.
She examined her body from head to toe.
The man's big fists hit her, but she didn't feel any pain. Compared to the previous people who hit her, it was like being tickled.
That's truly amazing.
Aside from being a little tired, a little wronged, and a little hungry, she was fine. It was truly impressive, and truly shameful, that she had ever beaten someone older than her like that before…
As I was thinking, I drifted off to sleep.
When Nian Wanzhou woke up, it was already time for dinner.
Nan Yu was sitting at the table, holding her bowl and chopsticks, ready to call her.
Seeing her open her eyes, he immediately showed a relieved expression. "Did you sleep well? I've brought the food; please eat here!"
