C32 Name Disciple
Title disciple, chapter 31.
Yuu Zifei was quite surprised. Why would Mr. Xiao suddenly ask about the current situation of her master? She frowned and looked at Mr. Xiao doubtfully. She asked, "The old man also knows about Senior Ren Daoqing?"
Mr. Xiao had tears in his eyes. He nodded. He sighed. "In the early years,i was Senior Ren Daoqing's in-name disciple. How could I let myself be expelled from the sect because of a mistake? It has been more than forty years. During these forty years, i've been thinking about my Master all the time. It's just that the journey is difficult. I'm afraid I won't be able to see him again in my lifetime. "
Yuu Zifei was very surprised. She did not expect Mr. Xiao to be her master's in-name disciple forty years ago. This was really unexpected. Yuu Zifei could not help but sigh at the heartlessness of time and the passing of time.
"Old mister,senior Ren Daoqing is doing very well. He is currently trying to break through to the seventh Forbidden Gate. I think he will come out soon."
Mr. Xiao nodded his head excitedly and kept muttering. "That's good, that's good."
After that, Mr. Xiao continued, "Miss, my body is old and weak, and I will never be able to reach the Purple Wei Region again. If you see my master again in the future,i hope you can pass on a message to him on my behalf."
Yuu Zifei did not hesitate at all. She nodded, "Sir, please speak."
Mr. Xiao was silent for a moment and then said, "Xiao Xuefu has let down his master. What he did that day was all because of his disciple's selfish desires. After committing a heinous crime, Xiao Xuefu became my master in Burning Sword City. He hoped that his master would forgive the innocent, and endure more than forty years of suffering. Xuefu had already understood the loneliness and loneliness of this matter. Xuefu no longer has anything to worry about. "
Yuu Zifei did not understand the deeper meaning behind Mr. Xiao's words. She only nodded. "If I see Senior Ren Daoqing,i will definitely tell him."
Mr. Xiao nodded gratefully. He turned around to look at the crowd and then at the pale Zheng Konglan. He said, "Miss,miss, look at the pale Zheng Konglan. I have one more request."
Yuu Zifei nodded again and said, Yes. "But there is no harm in saying it."
Mr. Xiao pointed at the people of Burning Sword City and said, "Today, the people of Burning Sword City have offended Miss. I hope Miss can forgive the people of Burning Sword City. As the saying goes, those who don't know are innocent. The patriarch of the Zheng family has spoken rudely and hurt Miss's disciple. I hope Miss can forgive me."
Yuu Zifei was in a difficult position because of this matter. Wu Bieyun wholeheartedly wanted to punish her. There was no reason for him to shirk his responsibility. He had to prove himself no matter what. However, once she proved herself, she would be exposed. Now, Mr. Xiao's request had given her a way out. Yuu Zifei was very happy in her heart, but she did not show it. After a moment of silence, she opened her mouth and said:
"This noble one has always been decisive in killing. Today,i wanted to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys. Since this old man is a disciple of this noble one,i will give him some face. As for today's matter,i will let it go. As for this Profound Forbidden Scroll,i will stop selling it today." Yuu Zifei took advantage of the opportunity given by Mr. Xiao to come down.
Of course, Mr. Xiao did not understand this. Seeing that Yuu Zifei had agreed, he felt relieved and smiled. "Since the matter here has been resolved, he said. I still have matters to attend to, so I will take my leave."
Mr. Xiao cupped his fists and left Full Spring Tower, leaving West City.
After Mr. Xiao left, Gai Yin glanced at Yuu Zifei and smiled. He then turned around and looked at Zheng Konglan. "Master of Zheng family, what do you think at this moment?"
Zheng Konglan had already collapsed to the ground. He had just heard it clearly. The masked woman who was standing on the second floor was a man who had slaughtered an entire city. He, Zheng Konglan, was nothing. He was just a puny mighty warrior in the Burning Sword City, but he had offended such a powerful man. He had just felt that he wouldn't be able to leave Full Spring Tower today. Luckily, Mr. Xiao had asked for his help. Only then did he relax.
Gai Yin's words had once again made him nervous. He looked at Gai Yin's expression. His body trembled and he said, "I... I was blind,i..."
Gai Yin shook his head and interrupted Zheng Konglan. He said in a cold voice, "Master has already said that this Profound Forbidden Scroll will not be sold today. Everyone, please leave. "
Luo Xingkong and Wu Bieyun looked at each other. Luo Xingkong shook his head. Since Cang Mangzi had spoken, he had no reason to stay any longer. Mr. Xiao had just proved Cang Mangzi's identity. Luo Xingkong knew Mr. Xiao's character, so he would not lie. Therefore, he could only bid farewell with cupped fists.
After Luo Xingkong left first, Wu Bieyun stayed where he was and thought for a while. Then, he left as well. After that, the surrounding people also left.
Zheng Konglan blended into the crowd. He was afraid that Gai Yin would go back on his word, so he left in a hurry.
Finally, there were two people left who hadn't left yet. One was Gai Bingtian, and the other was Chen Beigui.
Gai Yin looked at the two of them and asked, "What? Why aren't you leaving? Do you want to stay in Full Spring Tower and find a girl?"
Chen Beigui and Gai Bingtian already knew that Gai Yin was a cultivator. Besides, they also had a master, Cang Mangzi, who was standing upstairs. Therefore, they didn't dare to treat Gai Yin with a bad attitude.
Chen Beigui knew that Gai Bingtian couldn't talk much at this moment, so he took the initiative to answer Gai Yin, "Gai Yin, today's matter is really unexpected. This is something that no one expected. I think you can understand us, right?"
Gai Yin felt that it was quite funny. At this time, Chen Beigui actually asked him to understand them. Why didn't they understand him when he was treated as a chess piece? Gai Yin knew how cold and warm human relationships were. Now that he had successfully created Cang Mangzi, Chen Beigui had started to approach him.
What about his father, Gai Bingtian? Gai Yin smiled coldly and waved his hand. "I understand you, so please leave. This is a brothel. If the news of the City Lord mingling in a brothel gets out,i don't think the City Lord can afford to lose face."
Chen Beigui was slightly stunned and quickly smiled. "Since Young Master Gai can understand, that's good. I am here to find Kongyin."
Chen Beigui pointed at Chen Kongyin and was about to step forward but was stopped by Gai Yin. He said coldly, "You still have the face to look for Kongyin? You bet your own daughter as a bargaining chip. Do you think that this will protect your position as the City Lord?"
Chen Beigui suddenly trembled. He and Gai Yin were very close to each other. They looked at each other, and Chen Beigui immediately lowered his head.
Gai Yin was right. Chen Beigui knew what he was doing. He used Chen Kongyin as his bargaining chip to protect his position as the City Lord. How could he not lose the bet? First, he bet Chen Kongyin on Young City Lord of Dragon Elephant City. Unfortunately, there was a rumor about Chen Kongyin and Gai Yin, and the first bet was lost.
After that, Chen Beigui changed his mind and decided to marry Chen Kongyin to Gai Yin. He hoped that Chen Kongyin could marry into Gai family, and this would help him keep his position as the City Lord. Unfortunately, Gai Yin and Gai family had completely broken off, which made him lose another round.
After that, Chen Kongyin perfectly unlocked the fifth shackle in his body. He now had a new hope, which was to get rid of the previous enmity between him and his enemy, the Luo family, and marry Chen Kongyin to the genius of the Luo family, Luo Xiangya.
This time, Chen Beigui thought that he was safe. He was just waiting for Luo Xiangya to return, and Chen Kongyin would marry into the Luo family. Unfortunately, his fickleness was seen through by Chen Kongyin. Chen Kongyin ran away from home.
After losing three rounds in a row, every word Gai Yin said was fatal. Chen Beigui knew that he had completely lost. At least, he had lost in gambling. He had never won a single time.
Chen Beigui closed his eyes. A line of tears seeped out from the corner of his eyes. His heart for fame and reputation was too strong. He had never cared about his daughter. He didn't know if it was because he had suddenly realized it or because he had abandoned his heart of fame and fortune, but when he opened his eyes, his face was filled with regret.
