To be honest, Xu Yan had never thought that his previous actions would put him in a dangerous situation where he could not get out of it.
At the same time, his heart was filled with gratitude towards Qin Yi and the white-bearded old man.
Firstly, it was Qin Yi. Not only did Qin Yi not take revenge on him after he had offended him, he had even painstakingly done so many things for him!
After all, they were just strangers just a few hours ago! Furthermore, he was filled with malice towards Qin Yi!
Now that he thought about it carefully, he was filled with regret. His respect for Qin Yi had also increased by another level!
Of course, he didn't know how to repay his master right now.
He had almost dragged his master down with him because of what had happened today.
Without a doubt, if Qin Yi had really wanted to pursue the matter, not only would he be finished today, his master would definitely be dragged into a dangerous situation as well.
Regarding this, not only did his master not blame him at all, but he even wanted to take the initiative to take responsibility for him. Even now, he still wanted to help Xu Yan find out the truth of the matter!
To be honest, to be able to meet a master like this was the luckiest thing in Xu Yan's life!
"Yan 'er, you don't have to say any more words of gratitude!"
The white-bearded old man's face was filled with kindness as he said to him, "I was the one who brought you into the Yin-Yang Academy. All these years, I have always treated you like my own child. Not only do I have the responsibility to take care of you, but I also have the responsibility to guide you and not let you walk down the wrong path. You being able to walk on the right path and have a promising future is the greatest consolation for me! "
Xu Yan could not help but burst into tears as he said, "Master, I will remember this. I will definitely repay you in the future!"
"You can become stronger and contribute to the academy in the future. To me, that is the best repayment!"
The white-bearded old man smiled as he stroked Xu Yan's hair, his face filled with kindness as he spoke.
In fact, ever since he had brought Xu Yan here, he no longer treated him like an ordinary disciple.
He had pursued the Martial Dao all his life and had never thought of carrying on the family line.
Before Xu Yan came here, his daily life was either cultivation or official business.
It was no exaggeration to say that he had already dedicated all his attention to martial arts and Yin-Yang Academy.
To be honest, although this kind of life was quite fulfilling, when he was free, he would find himself really lonely!
After all, he did not have many friends in the academy. Although he had official dealings with many of the elders, in reality, their personal relationships were not very deep.
Therefore, when he felt that he had nothing to do, he didn't even have someone to talk to!
When he first brought Xu Yan back to the academy, other than her martial arts talent and her obedient and sensible personality, he also wanted to find a companion who could accompany him when he grew old.
In his eyes, Xu Yan wasn't just a disciple, she was also his spiritual sustenance, his family!
It was precisely because of this that his expectations of Xu Yan were very high in many matters!
If it wasn't for the sake of Xu Yan's success, if it wasn't because he cared for her from the bottom of his heart, how could he have done such a thing?
Without a doubt, he really treated Xu Yan as his own grandson.
As his own family, he could only think of selflessly contributing. Why would he think of asking for anything in return?
If one were to say that he truly had a selfish motive, then it would be for Xu Yan to become a true talent, someone who could contribute to the academy, and also someone who could give himself a better future!
He was already old now. Although a warrior's lifespan was very long and people who had reached his level could extend their lifespans indefinitely, no matter how long one's lifespan was, there was still a limit.
He could clearly feel that his body's condition was not as good as before.
He had already started to go downhill and it could even be said that his life had come to an end.
And Xu Yan, as his disciple and descendant, was also the carrier of his future hope.
If he could see Xu Yan become successful and become a dragon among men before he died, that would be the greatest consolation for him.
Xu Yan looked at his own Master and was momentarily speechless.
The white-bearded old man treated him as a family member and how could he not also treat the other person as his only family member?
Back when he had been wandering outside, living a life without anyone to rely on, what he had yearned for the most was to have someone who could protect and love him!
And his Master had appeared when he needed it the most. Not only had he given him a superior life, he had also given him someone to rely on.
Therefore, he also cherished the relationship between him and his master very much!
Now that he had seen his Master like this, apart from feeling grateful, Xu Yan felt even more heartache!
All these years, he had been in contact with his Master for so long that he had gradually started to forget that his Master's health seemed to be deteriorating day by day.
Now that the Master and disciple had finished their heart-to-heart conversation, he finally realized that he really could not continue to be willful!
"Don't worry, Master, your disciple will not let you down!"
"Good! That's good! "
The white-bearded old man was very touched. His tear-streaked face suddenly broke into a warm smile.
"Alright, let's go now, don't let them wait too long!"
"Mm!"
The two of them walked shoulder to shoulder and stood in front of Qin Yi!
"Have you thought it through?"
Although the conversation between the two of them was a little long, Qin Yi was considered to be more patient and had waited until now.
When he saw Xu Yan coming over, he asked directly without beating around the bush.
"I have thought it through!"
Xu Yan nodded firmly and said to Qin Yi, "I accept your help! At the same time, I have to thank you for doing so much for me! Don't worry, I will definitely work hard and not let your painstaking efforts down! "
After hearing this, a smile finally appeared on Qin Yi's face!
The attitude that Xu Yan displayed now was exactly the same as the Xu Yan who had admitted her mistake and shouldered all the responsibility on her own!
And the Xu Yan that Qin Yi admired was exactly the same!
"Alright, everyone can leave now! Today's matter ends here! "
