Thus, an awkward line of logic was established.
Helping Xuan Yi meant not helping Yao Lao.
Helping Yao Lao meant not helping Xuan Yi.
But then again, the definition of helping and not helping was worth considering.
What counted as helping?

And based on such a course of action.
Four main paths could be derived.
Or rather, four possibilities.
The first path was that Xuan Yi disallowed it, but Lu Yuan stubbornly persisted.
The second path was that Xuan Yi allowed it, in which case it could not be called stubborn persistence.
The third path was that Xuan Yi disallowed it, and Lu Yuan obediently stopped.
The fourth path was that Xuan Yi allowed it, but Lu Yuan was unwilling to help.
After all, Yao Lao was one hundred percent in favor of it.
The main uncertainty lay in Xuan Yi's attitude.
And among these four paths.

For example, in the first path, Xuan Yi disallowed it, yet Lu Yuan stubbornly insisted on helping Yao Lao. The problems that arose would be no more than a few kinds.
The first was that master and disciple tore face, with Xuan Yi
