Chapter 1747: Shen Xiaoshan (2/2)

Tieshu Weng didn’t dare to disturb him and quietly waited to the side.

After a while, Li Qiye regained his wits and glanced at the old man: “I’m a bit tired, time for a bath.”

“I’ll have someone prepare one for you.” Weng hastily replied.

“Let your female disciple waits on me.” Li Qiye casually ordered.

“Uhh…” Weng was taken aback by the request. Even though he had such thoughts, especially if Li Qiye were to join the Jilin Clan, it would be too early right now.

“Don’t worry, I don’t care for her beauty or anything. Let her serve me with a back rub.” Li Qiye answered after noticing the old man’s expression.

“I shall do so.” Weng shuddered after seeing Li Qiye’s cold eyes again. He believed that the guy wasn’t in it for anything s.e.xual.

“What?!” Shen Xiaoshan shouted after hearing her master: “Master, you, you want me to go serve him?”

“Yes.” Weng said slowly: “Do your best without any mistake! This is a heavy responsibility for your sake and the sect’s.”

“Master, this is too much.” He Chen loudly joined in. His Senior Sister was the prettiest at Sago Palm. So many brothers had a crush on her. Now, she had to go serve a mortal beggar? He Chen didn’t know what spell had stricken his master.

“Watch it!” Weng reprimanded: “What do you know?! Even if he is only a mortal, his vision and mind are superior! An extraordinary mortal he is. When dealing with others, do not judge by appearance or you’ll pay for it one day!”

He rarely yelled at his disciples in such a stern manner in the past. It was certainly working because the two became afraid.

“But, master, well, it’s too irrational to let sister go serve him.” He Chen lowered his tone.

Weng said: “Who can predict the future? Go, don’t be so willful. You are responsible for Sago Palm as well as the First Sister. Be a role model for the young ones instead of acting so immature.”

Despite her unwillingness, Xiaoshan didn’t dare to go against her master’s wish. She continued on with an unhappy expression. He Chen stomped on the ground after seeing what he perceived as an injustice.

Weng saw everything and said: “Chen’er, you are letting me down!”

“Master…” He Chen didn’t expect these words to come from his master at all.

“You and your sister have great talents, much better than mine. However, the two of you are too arrogant, thinking that you’re better than others so you look down on them. I pampered you too much instead of doing a good job of grooming you. I have failed in my role as your master.” Weng sighed and shook his head.

“Master…” He Chen’s complexion turned pale.

Weng went on: “You should know that the responsibility of taking care of the sect will fall on the two of you one day since I’m old now. Cultivation alone isn’t enough to lead a sect; wisdom, reading people, and magnanimity are necessary or the sect will fall in your hands. How will you be able to see the ancestors then? The two of you lose your cool too easily while being too obstinate with your beliefs. If you don’t try harder to rid yourself of these flaws, how can I ever be at ease to hand the sect over to you?”
