Years ago, he had said Dangling Heaven's ass deserved a kicking. Now that Dangling Heaven had fallen into his hands, how could he let him off?
Dangling Heaven laughed. He did not resist, letting his disciple vent as he pleased. As he looked at Old Jiang, nothing but gratification remained in his eyes.
Only after a long while did Old Jiang lower his foot. Turning his back, he did not look at Dangling Heaven again. "Fine if you want to die, but you even wanted to add another great enemy to our sect. Do you have any idea how much trouble one more Heaven would bring us?"
Dangling Heaven said, "Your master was wrong."
He offered no explanation, only kept admitting his fault.
Old Jiang had more to say, but Dangling Heaven's straightforward lowering of his head and admission of fault left the words lodged in his throat.
Master and disciple fell into silence just like that.
Looking at Old Jiang's back, Dangling Heaven said, "I do not have much time left. Walk with me. We have not seen each other for many years, and I have much to say to you."
Old Jiang snorted coldly. "No interest. You can die whenever you want, but do not create trouble for our sect."
With that, he strode away.
Dangling Heaven did not chase after him. He quietly watched Old Jiang's back grow farther and farther away.
"Old Jiang is not really leaving, is he?"
The ancestors hiding in the distance widened their eyes. After master and disciple had gone so long without seeing each other, could they not have a frank and proper talk?
At that moment, Old Jiang, who had already walked far away, suddenly stopped. He did not turn around, nor did he say anything.
He simply stood there.
