Daoxuan's words left Tian Buyi unsure whether he should feel happy or depressed.
"How many people does my Big Bamboo Peak even have? Senior Brother, why not pick Zeng Shuchang? Or Tianyun would work too. Shang Zhengliang isn't out of the question either. As for the excuse, I'll go back and think it over properly. Right, Qi Hao! Just say he went to join his master Cangsong! That's a good reason!"
Daoxuan True Person stared at Tian Buyi in astonishment. This fellow was not satisfied with setting up his fellow disciples—even his martial nephew, he wanted to set up too. Truly...
"Even if all five of their branches betrayed the sect together, they would not compare to your one Big Bamboo Peak!" Daoxuan True Person seemed determined to have Tian Buyi take part in this plan.
Seeing Daoxuan's firm attitude, Tian Buyi's temper flared as well. He had never heard of any sect leader persuading his own people to betray their master's sect. Truly, the longer one lived, the more one saw!
"I, Tian Buyi, act uprightly and sit straight. I will never do something like betray the sect. Say no more. This junior brother still has matters to handle. Farewell!" With that, without waiting for Daoxuan True Person to react, he turned and left Jade Purity Hall at a trot.
Behind him, Daoxuan True Person sat upright in the seat of honor, looking at Tian Buyi's back with an inexplicable light in his eyes.
As soon as Tian Buyi returned to Big Bamboo Peak, he urged his disciples to hurry up, pack, and leave with him. He was afraid that if he stayed even a moment longer, that fellow Daoxuan would come knocking first thing in the morning.
What a joke. How could he, Tian Buyi, pour dirty water
