Chapter 510: Chapter 22: Fighting for the Great Heavenly Proud! Who Will Win? (Vote for the Monthly Ticket)_3

Happy that his apprentice has become a Great Heavenly Proud apprentice, yet worried because the apprentice had offended others before she even officially began her training.

This must be handled carefully at this moment.

He immediately shouted in rebuke, “Shang Jiping, even if you have doubts about the origins of the child’s cultivation technique, you should not be so callous? Can’t you at least ask nicely?”

“Master, I was wrong.” Shang Jiping bowed his head in apology.

Immediately, the Master of Primordial Water adopted a kinder expression looking at Wang Liyao. “Liyao, this was all a misunderstanding caused by a misunderstanding. Regarding Elder Shang, I will certainly severely criticize him. Tell me how you want him to compensate you, the Master will decide for you.”

Unexpectedly…

… Wang Liyao pouted her lips and turned her head away, not wanting to speak, let alone explain or debate with the Master of Primordial Water.

The Master of Primordial Water thought she was being childish. Despite him, a respected Master, apologizing, she was still upset? A hint of annoyance crossed his mind. However, he was patient because after all, she was a Great Heavenly Proud apprentice, an extraordinary disciple he could hardly come across in his lifetime.

Suddenly!

Lu Xianghui darted out from the crowd and knelt down before the Master of Primordial Water. Despite being terrified, he spoke loudly, “Master, the situation is not as Elder Shang said. The truth is…”

Then he went into detail about what had happened, without siding with Wang Liyao or Shang Lexian and Elder Shang.

“My junior sister, no, Miss Liyao, only intervened to prevent the disciples from being bullied. I hope the Master understands,” Lu Xianghui bowed continuously, “if the Master does not believe me, there are many disciples present who can testify.”

The faces of Wang Shouzhe and Wang Longyan became increasingly grim. Elder Shang was pushing them too far! To cover up for his own clan, he constantly tried to suppress Liyao. What if Liyao wasn’t able to persist until they arrived?

Go to

The Master of Primordial Water also looked increasingly displeased. If what this ordinary disciple said was true, wouldn’t his lineage have committed a grave wrongdoing, seriously offending his future Great Heavenly Proud apprentice?

As he was about to speak…

Wang Shouzhe beat him to it, ” Master, I suggest we just let this matter rest, there’s no need to investigate who was wrong.”

The Master of Primordial Water looked relieved, “Thank you, Shouzhe for your magnanimity. But don’t worry. I will solve this issue for Liyao.”

“No, what I mean is, the previous agreement of my daughter paying respects to you, let’s cancel that.” Wang Shouzhe said, “Prior to this, my daughter came to your lineage to take a look, but she didn’t expect to experience such an unpleasant event. I’m afraid it has left a shadow in her heart. She stated already that she does not want to join your lineage anymore. Therefore, whether or not this matter is investigated doesn’t matter anymore.”

“What…” The Master of Primordial Water was a bit overwhelmed. “Shouzhe, a previously agreed matter cannot be changed just because of a whim, especially after Liyao has already practiced our lineage’s cultivation technique! Let’s discuss this again.”

“Master!”

Although Wang Shouzhe’s expression looked respectful, his tone had become firm. “Although there was an agreement before, it’s concerning that the atmosphere of your lineage is so pervasive. A glimpse of an object is enough to understand its whole. Bullying disciples is certainly not the first incident. For the sake of such a learning environment, I, as a father, will not allow my child to be pushed into a ‘pit of fire’.”

Pit of fire?

The Master of Primordial Water almost choked. Having lived for more than six hundred years, he naturally understood the real meaning behind Wang Shouzhe’s words. Although he verbally said he didn’t care, he actually did.

His underlying intentions were clearly expressed. In case the resolution doesn’t satisfy them…

Regardless, Elder Shang was his former core disciple, and has also carried many burdens for the lineage of the Primordial Water on normal days. At the moment, he found it hard to make a harsh decision.

While the Master of Primordial Water hesitated, Wang Shouzhe shook his head and sighed, “It’s clear that the Master is kind-hearted based on this encounter. The rotten atmosphere of this lineage is most likely due to your kind personality and dislike of intervention.”

“Master of Primordial Water, I hope you’ll forgive my boldness, I acknowledge that my position is humble, but as a clan leader, I understand the importance of rules! The current atmosphere of your lineage is closely related to your moderate and free-spirited character. ”

“My Liyao may not suit your lineage’s style.” By this time, Wang Shouzhe was convinced that the lineage of Primordial Water was not suitable for Liyao, nor did it match her personality, and he directly rejected the offer, “As for Liyao learning the cultivation technique of your lineage, it’s impossible to make her forget it. So, I’ll take Liyao to the Lingyun Sacred Land to take a look. After all, the Academic Palace of Purple Abode is a branch of the Holy Land’s inheritance… It doesn’t mean that Liyao is breaking the rules.”

The Master of Primordial Water almost choked, astounded. What? The Heavenly Proud disciple he had been looking forward to for years, was going to slip away just like that? Even with his gentle and non-competitive character, he was starting to harbour huge grudges against Elder Shang.

“Thank you, Daddy.” Wang Liyao’s eyes were agitated, and she looked at her father gratefully. Her father was so supportive of her, even though she was stubborn and did not want to enter the Academic Palace, that he wasn’t afraid of offending the Master.

“If you refuse to go, Daddy won’t force you.” Wang Shouzhe fondly smoothed her hair, “You just need to accompany Daddy to the capital of the Great Qian Land, and then sign up at the Lingyun Sacred Land. Daddy believes that with your talent, Lingyun Sacred Land will definitely accept you!”
