Fei Wan really didn't expect the tea to be so bitter, but seeing Rong Ze drinking it expressionlessly just now, there was nothing wrong with it.
"What's wrong?"
Fei Wan's expression caught Rong Ze's eyes. He had been deliberately avoiding and ignoring Fei Wan during this period of time, but he couldn't help but ask in the end.
"It's okay, but this tea is a bit bitter."
Fei Wan smiled awkwardly and put the tea back.
It was an extremely trivial matter, but some people present couldn't stand it.
"This tea is meant to symbolize the hardships encountered on the path to immortality. Fei Wan, having been taught by Senior Brother for so many years, shouldn't he be unaware of this principle? It's inappropriate for you to be so surprised by the bitterness of this tea."
Other peak masters were invited to the apprenticeship ceremony, and Luo Xuanyi was among them.
Seeing that Rong Ze was so concerned about the little girl's every move, Luo Xuanyi almost gritted her teeth.
She is just a little girl whose hair hasn't even grown out yet. She hasn't made any progress in the past few years. She and Rongze have known each other for such a long time, but Rongze has never treated her differently.
What's more... Rongze actually threatened her coldly for this girl, telling her not to tell anyone what she saw that day.
Luo Xuanyi glanced at Fei Wan. It was just a cup of tea, but she said it was bitter. It seemed that this girl knew the tea was bitter but still said it out loud. She also disliked Ye Nanxing.
Her words and actions were accusing Fei Wan of making things difficult for Ye Nanxing.
Fei Wan looked over, following the voice. Who else could have called Rong Ze "Senior Brother"? Sure enough, it was Luo Xuanyi, whom he had met that day.
Luo Xuanyi kept calling Rong Ze "Senior Brother". It was true that Rong Ze and she were from the same master. Among the six peaks of Tianmiao Sect, Rong Ze was the leader of Lianchen Peak, who inherited the way of swordsmanship and cultivated the sword spirit.
Therefore, Luo Xuanyi and Rong Ze each take charge of a peak. As Rong Ze's status is second only to the head, she does not call him "Shangxian" but "Senior Brother", which is nothing more than a way to show closeness and highlight her difference in front of Rong Ze.
Fei Wan respected her as "Uncle Master". If she argued with Luo Xuanyi, she would certainly appear disrespectful to her elders in front of everyone.
This was exactly what Luo Xuanyi had in mind. If Fei Wan retorted, he would appear uncultured, but if he swallowed his anger, he would be confirming what she said.
Fei Wan was not annoyed. She knew what Luo Xuan was thinking, but that didn't mean she had no right not to fight back when she was ridiculed.
Besides responding directly, there are other ways.
"Master You Yun is wrong..."
Fei Wan was about to speak, but Ye Nanxing got ahead of her and spoke up to defend her.
"This tea is inherently bitter, so why can't we reveal its true nature? Furthermore, since it has symbolic meaning, Senior Sister must be using it to remind me not to forget, rather than just going through the motions."
The young man's voice was very shallow. Facing Luo Xuanyi, he did not avoid him at all even though the other party was a senior who had practiced Taoism for many years.
Originally, this sentence could have smoothed things over, but Ye Nanxing raised his eyes slightly and asked in confusion, "Master You Yun, do you think there's something wrong?"
"you……"
Luo Xuanyi was furious for a moment. Even Ye Nanxing, who had just joined the company, was helping this girl.
With all the real people from all the peaks present, she couldn't get angry. The others were agreeing, even praising Rong Ze's good taste. Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Luo Xuanyi glared at Fei Wan and swallowed her anger.
Receiving Luo Xuanyi's hostile gaze, Fei Wan was speechless.
It was really surprising that Ye Nanxing stood up for her, but why did Luo Xuanyi still blame her for the culprit that embarrassed her?
After the tedious apprenticeship ceremony, Fei Wan, the senior sister who was just going through the motions, thought that Ye Nanxing would be kept behind to be reminded by Rong Ze of the things to pay attention to. However, she did not expect that the person Rong Ze called was not Ye Nanxing, but her.
