Better to Torment Others Than Yourself

"Don't be in a hurry to return it to me. From now on, Starfall Pavilion will encounter countless powerful enemies. This Bodhi Seed will more or less become one of Starfall Pavilion's safeguards."

How could Xiao Yan not understand what Yao Chen meant? He simply pressed down on his revered teacher's hand, making him tighten his grip on the Storage Ring in his palm at the same time.

"Wan'er and I are heading to the Yao Clan this time. I'm afraid we won't be back anytime soon. Starfall Pavilion will still need you to preside over it."

Xiao Yan spoke solemnly. This brush with life and death had suddenly made him understand many things, and had made him realize even more clearly that if one did not become a Dou Saint, one ultimately could not be considered anything in the face of true storms.

Yao Chen naturally understood Xiao Yan's meaning, and he knew even more clearly that Xiao Yan and Yao Wan were heading to the Yao Clan this time to settle the final account.

Thinking back to the suspicions he had when his disciple had first been harmed a year ago, Yao Chen then said, "The Yao Clan... is not exactly calm and peaceful. When you and the girl return, you must be careful. The girl's temperament is especially strong, and for your sake, she will be even less willing to let things go. But you must not let her suffer a loss either..."

Xiao Yan was silent, then gently nodded. He was naturally perfectly clear about everything his teacher had said.

"I understand."

"Mm... Then you don't need to worry too much about Starfall Pavilion. No matter what, I am still a Dou Saint. Starfall Pavilion as it is now is not so easy to bully either."
