"Is that so?"
Just then, a calm voice chimed in from the front, causing the young girl's body to stiffen on the spot.
She raised her tiny, palm-sized face in astonishment and stared in disbelief at the woman who had just entered the courtyard.
"Mas... Master?"
No!
Impossible!
Wasn't Master taken away by Rong Xin? Why is she here now?
"Nan Xiao!"
The old Order Master's followers were overjoyed when they saw the woman in the courtyard. Their hearts, which had been on edge for the past few days, relaxed.
"Senior Aunt Wei, I've found Master."
Wu Yue blinked.
After Wei Yiyi had led Rong Xin into the Medicine Order, she had followed Rong Xin's instructions to find Nan Xiao! It was a good thing that Rong Xin had secretly brought Nan Xiao along with her when she had moved the Medicine Order. That was why Wu Yue had been able to bring her back so quickly.
"What on earth is going on!"
Elder Tianli's expression sank. He swept his gaze across Lin Jun's disbelieving, handsome face and finally landed on Rong Xin's deathly pale face.
"Order Master, can you tell us what on earth is going on?"
Rong Xin bit her lip, "That's right, I had killed the old Order Master and... I had also captured Nan Xiao!"
At this point, she could only admit it.
Once she had spoken, the entire courtyard fell silent. The elders who had previously believed in Rong Xin could not believe what they had just heard.
They had assumed that the old Order Master's death had something to do with Lin Jun and that the Order Master had merely been lusting after men.
They never thought that the Order Master and Lin Jun would join forces and murder the old Order Master.
Furthermore, in order to deal with Wei Yiyi, they had not even spared the old Order Master's only daughter!
"Order Master, you've greatly disappointed us."
Elder Tianli sighed in disappointment. It was likely that he had never expected this to happen.
After all, he had always trusted Rong Xin.
"Ling'er," Nan Xiao turned towards Ling'er and spoke expressionlessly, "You've been abandoned by your parents since you were young. I was the one who had taken you in. Now, you're going against Senior Sister Yiyi for their sake?"
"Master."
Thud!
The young girl suddenly crawled up, rushed in front of Nan Xiao, and kowtowed fiercely.
"Please forgive me, I was forced to do this. If Master is willing, I am willing to hand my life over to you. However, Rong Xin has kidnapped my parents and forced me to accuse Senior Uncle Wei. I was forced to do this!"
Her head hit the ground hard, and soon it turned purple, but she didn't seem to notice it.
"Ling 'er, don't forget, if it wasn't for Master, you'd be dead!" Wuyue said angrily, "But you betrayed Master for the sake of the parents who abandoned you. Can you really face your own conscience?"
Hearing this, the girl stopped kowtowing and stood up. "I don't think I did anything wrong! No matter how wrong my parents are, they are still my parents! The person closest to me in this world! Not to mention betraying Master for them, I can do anything for them! I admit that I have wronged Master, but I do not admit that my actions are wrong! "
"Ling 'er, they had abandoned you back then!"
Wuyue really could not understand what this young girl was thinking. Even though her Master had not given birth to her, she had picked up the abandoned girl and raised her from a young age, giving her the best conditions for her cultivation.
Yet she had betrayed her Master for the sake of the people who had abandoned her!
