"Qin Yi, I hope you can be lenient."
At that moment, the white-bearded old man turned to look at Qin Yi and pleaded, "I've lived for so many years and I'm not afraid of death. However, Yan 'er is still young. Although he doesn't know much, I can guarantee with my life that he's absolutely loyal to the academy. "
After a pause, he continued, "If it's possible, I'm willing to take the punishment on his behalf. As long as you can be lenient, I'll be satisfied!"
It was obvious that he had made up his mind to protect his disciple and not let Xu Yan suffer any harm.
At the same time, he firmly believed that there wouldn't be any problems with his disciple. Apart from being bewitched by the Divine King's clone and walking down the wrong path, there was basically no stain on his record.
Even though Xu Yan had already made a mistake, in his eyes, his disciple was still perfect and had a bright future ahead of him!
Xu Yan couldn't help but tear up when he saw this.
To be honest, although he could tell that his master loved him dearly, he had never protected him at all costs like he did today.
One had to know that he had been living by his master's side since he was young.
Although his master had always taken care of him and provided him with the resources he needed so that he could cultivate higher-level techniques and become stronger, the truth was that his master was a strict person most of the time.
His master's requirements for his cultivation were extremely strict, to the point of being harsh. If there was even the slightest mistake, he would be criticized and scolded!
Xu Yan felt that such a strict cultivation environment was almost unheard of in other people's world.
In addition, although his master had always tried his best to give him the best, he still had to abide by all kinds of rules. If he made the slightest mistake, he would be punished.
In his memory, his master always had a straight face, as if he was angry at others. While it was scary, it also made him respect his master immensely.
Apart from that, he had never resented his master's strictness.
This was because he knew that his master treated him this way for his own good. He wanted him to have a good future so that he could become someone who could truly benefit the academy and contribute to the academy.
However, respect and gratitude were one aspect. His impression of his master was another.
In Xu Yan's eyes, his master was a very strict master in the truest sense of the word. There was almost no smile on his face. He was the kind of person who couldn't even say a word of concern.
Or perhaps, his master only cared about making him a talent and didn't care about anything else.
His strict treatment had a clear motive. However, he didn't have the slightest intention of protecting him. Perhaps, he just wanted him to become independent!
However, today was the first time his master had said something like this. He suddenly felt that he had misunderstood his master.
It wasn't that he didn't know how to protect his disciple, it was just that he wasn't good at expressing his feelings of wanting to protect someone.
Moreover, although the old man didn't have the highest status in the academy, it wasn't low.
With the prestige of the white-bearded old man, no matter who it was in the academy, they would have to give him some face. Xu Yan was his disciple. Who would dare to bully him in the academy?
If it weren't for the fact that Xu Yan had always been sensible and never took the initiative to pick a fight, he would have been the one bullying other people's disciples all these years. How could anyone bully him?
In such a relatively harmonious space, how much of the old man's care and protection for his disciple could be shown?
However, today, after the incident with Qin Yi, Xu Yan finally realized that his master cared for him from the bottom of his heart. He was even willing to sacrifice his life to protect him.
Such care and warmth was something that Xu Yan had never felt before, and it was precisely because of this that he was so emotional and even on the verge of tears.
"No! Qin Yi! I'll take responsibility for my own actions! "
Seeing that his master loved him so much, Xu Yan was even more unwilling to let his master take responsibility for his crimes. He quickly looked at Qin Yi and said loudly, "I'm still young. I can take hardships and I'm not afraid of suffering. You can't do anything to my master. He's old and won't be able to take it. As long as you're willing, I'm willing to even cripple my cultivation! "
"Bastard! What kind of nonsense are you talking about? "
The old man glared at him and said angrily, "I've painstakingly taught you for over twenty years. It wasn't easy for you to achieve what you have today. Do you think you can cripple my cultivation just because you want to? I'll never agree to it! You bastard! "
Between the two of them, one wanted to protect his master and prevent him from being hurt, while the other wanted to protect his disciple so that his legacy could continue. It could be said that both of them were willing to sacrifice themselves for each other and were willing to disregard everything else!
"Both of you, stop talking!"
At that moment, Qin Yi spoke with a smile on his face. His gaze swept back and forth between the two of them before he said, "It's meaningless for a master and a disciple to keep arguing over such a matter."
After hearing Qin Yi's words, the old man's and Xu Yan's hearts sank.
It was obvious that they had realized that Qin Yi might have already decided to punish them.
Of course, they also knew that Qin Yi was not the type to be easily moved by others.
It was obvious that no matter how much they had said previously, it was likely that Qin Yi would not necessarily buy it.
If Qin Yi had already decided on how to deal with the matter, did that mean that both of them were finished this time?
Needless to say, Xu Yan, as a disciple of the academy, had actually used such despicable methods against a fellow disciple. He had even brought so many people and directly attacked the residence of a fellow disciple!
Most importantly, this guy had even colluded with the enemies of Yin-Yang Academy. If they had not discovered it early, who knew what would have happened next!
Such a person had obviously committed a heinous crime.
Any kind of severe punishment would not be too much for him.
As for the old man with the white beard, not only was he guilty of not disciplining his disciple, but he was also the first person to go to Qin Yi's residence and even attacked Qin Yi!
From this point alone, both of them were about the same.
Indeed, both of them should be punished!
