Happy Reading~ =========== "F-Forgive us..." finally, the elders, they decided to abandon their opinions. Thinking about how stupid they were, to forget who the old grandmother in front of them was right now. That old grandmother, she's a monster. And yet, she was the one who had helped them reach heights that their previous sect master had been unable to reach. Shows how strong she is, able to fight against the strongest person of the holy jade sect. Even so, they had a grudge from the start that could not be erased. As elders, who have lived to be half a thousand years old. They knew, knew what grudge their sect master had. In the past, they had heard rumors that the guardian elder of the jade sect had killed all of their sect master's colleagues. Whether that's true or not, no one knows for sure. Moreover, there was no one at the scene to witness the incident. Apart from the colleagues of the old grandmother, who had been killed by him. But still, they didn't expect that rumors about the victim would suddenly come to them. Initially, they did not show her the slightest respect. Before finally, they decided to give up. Feeling its power, which was beyond common sense. At the same time, they saw a small child she was carrying. Who knows who it is, what is certain is that the little child is Chu Xia. After that, the old grandmother decided to settle down in their sect. Then, as the years passed, she decided to do something crazy. Namely, intending to take over their sect. Dethroning their previous leader, killing him. Although at first it caused a bit of a stir in the sect. However, it only lasted for one day. After that, everything ended as if nothing had happened. Don't know what the reason is, what is certain is that the old grandmother threatened them all. Or promise one thing, namely improving the reputation of their sect. Well, in the end it all really happened. Just look, this place is even better than before. Much better than the previous sect master's reign. Of course, the old grandmother was one of the strongest cultivators in the world after all. So, it was only natural that he could reach such heights. For a moment, the entire room became quiet again. The elders, they subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. Sensing that the killing aura around them had disappeared, they were grateful that they had not been killed. A moment later, after Hao Tian finished drinking his tea. He put it back on his desk, then looked at the old grandmother. "I will give you my answer: yes, I want it. However..." before he was about to continue, his gaze fell on Chu Xia. Soon enough, a small grin formed on his lips. "I'm not a coward, I can handle my own problems. Plus, I don't want to be a bastard who can only hide behind my lover." "I won't accept such insults, so I refused." Hao Tian, he chose to reject her offer. He knew, knew that if Chu Xia decided to follow him then she would have to rely on him. The reason is clear, because of the power they have. Imagine, if one day they met an opponent who was impossible to defeat, wouldn't that be the same as leading them to death? Hence, rather than bringing Chu Xia with him, he preferred to place her in this place. That way, her strength can continue to be improved. At the same time, there was still that old grandmother by her side. Her safety could be more guaranteed, no matter what Ji Kahn and his son would try to do. There was nothing they could do, as long as she remained guarded by a powerful master like her. "..." for a moment, the old grandmother, she was silent. Didn't react in any way, despite the silence that enveloped her. Instantly, her eyes fell back on her disciple. "Is that okay?" then asked, wanting to hear what she thought. Even though she was disappointed, this was a good choice. After all, she had expected this answer from the start. As long as this man had not reached the nascent soul realm, she would not give Chu Xia to him. After all, only men with strong beliefs can live long. Plus, their strength should be able to shake the heavens and the earth. That way, can be sure they will be able to protect anyone. Even if the sky fell, he would definitely be able to do it. Chu Xia, she didn't know what to say. Hearing Hao Tian's answer, she felt a little sad. Even so, it only lasted for a moment. Hearing the reasons he gave, it made sense. As her lover, he should not rely on her too much. Moreover, every cultivator had to walk their own path. Using shortcuts was the same as going against heaven's will, and their cultivation might be hampered. For a moment, after pondering in her mind. Chu Xia, she decided to speak up. "It's okay, Master, after all, this is Hao Chen's wish. So, I believe him." ============= Thanks for reading~
