Chapter 874: Chapter 33: The Eldest Miss of Sky City
"Elder Grandpa, I’ve returned this time to discuss an important matter with you all. The Sect Master and Master Wuxin have also come for this reason." Tianmiao felt the concern of the four elders, and her heart warmed as she spoke with a smile.
Only then did the four elders notice Wei Yunshu and Master Wuxin.
The simultaneous arrival of these two in Sky City meant there truly was something significant.
"Greetings to the four elders," Master Wuxin saluted.
Wei Yunshu grinned, showing his teeth: "I want to eat at the White Dew Banquet."
The four elders all rolled their eyes at the same time. This guy was as impolite as ever.
"Alright, come in and sit first to discuss in detail," the Great Elder said.
After entering the hall, Master Wuxin explained the matter in detail, with Wei Yunshu adding in specifics from the side.
After the four elders listened, their expressions turned extremely grave.
"We can treat it, yes, but treating the symptoms without addressing the root cause won’t do. If this issue isn’t thoroughly investigated and resolved at its source, it will only escalate. Even if we save everyone, Yuxin cannot accommodate so many people. Its purification capabilities are also limited," the Great Elder said, frowning, his tone exceptionally serious. "We can’t let this issue continue unchecked. We must quickly investigate the truth."
Wei Yunshu and Master Wuxin nodded in agreement with the Great Elder’s words.
"First, we must warn all the cultivators, and summon back the disciples who are traveling. Let the loose cultivators also be extra cautious," Tianmiao spoke up at this moment. "I’ll take people to investigate this matter."
"Absolutely not!" The four elders shouted in unison, their voices so loud that they almost lifted the roof.
"Why not? I need to grow up," Tianmiao said seriously. "I can’t always stay in White Jade City, can’t always live under your wings."
The four elders fell silent.
"I think Bai Yue’s right. She needs to stand on her own at some point and become the City Lord of White Jade City to protect everyone. If you don’t let go, how will she grow?" Wei Yunshu chimed in to help.
The four elders glared at Wei Yunshu but didn’t voice any objections.
"Then take more people with you?" the Great Elder cautiously suggested.
"Too many people attract attention and make it inconvenient to act," Tianmiao shook her head.
"You all should learn from me. When my brat wanted to travel, I let him go. For decades, he didn’t come back, and when he did, he told me he didn’t want to be Sect Master in the future. What could I do? I could only pack up his things and tell him to roll out again. If the sect needs him, he must come back. Don’t be ungrateful for the blessings you have," Wei Yunshu advised, shaking his head.
The four elders then remembered Wei Yunshu’s son, Wei Bingyang. He was also a genius, a once-in-a-millennium talent.
At that time, Wei Yunshu and everyone in Fenglan Sect held great expectations for Wei Bingyang, believing that as long as he became Sect Master, their sect would reach new heights.
But it turned out Wei Bingyang had no interest in being Sect Master. His heart was wandering, saying that the world was vast, with many interesting and exciting things waiting for him to explore.
What could Wei Yunshu do about it? He had lectured, beat, and even played the tragic drama card, but Wei Bingyang was unaffected.
Forget it, Wei Yunshu sighed, letting him fly free.
The four elders recalled this and glanced at each other, suddenly feeling they were indeed ungrateful for the blessings they had.
Their little precious one was so obedient and sensible. Now, she wants to go out and take risks too, for the sake of growing up and better governing White Jade City.
Oh, their little precious is just so wonderful.
