Chapter: 5484

Dragon Siqi spoke with resentment: "Master, you are the master of the True Real Dao, and yet you've abandoned the True Real Dao. You're alone in Jinling, while all your fellow teachers and seniors are waiting for you to return. I can't tell them that you've completely given up on us, can I? Take a example, if a mother remarry, it's understandable as an individual choice, but children need some arrangement, don't they? If you just abandon us without any thought, the children will find out and won't be unhappy either!"

Hong Changqing listened to these words and knew he couldn't argue with Dragon Siqi. He could only sit in the carriage, sighing and lamenting: "Ah, Siqi, you've really done me in..."

Dragon Siqi asked him: "Master, is there something your disciple hasn't thought through?"

Hong Changqing sighed and said, "What haven't you thought through?"

Dragon Siqi said, "Master, I know that your friend, Mr. Ye, has great abilities, and I also know that you definitely hope to get his guidance, but you don't need to abandon the position as the master of the True Real Dao. Your reputation in the sect is something I can't even imagine achieving, if I were to tell them that you've completely given up on us, they might not agree to let Mr. Ye take over the True Real Dao. But if it's you who takes the lead, then they won't dare say a word against it, and this matter would be settled once and for all. So why do you need to pass on your position to me?"

Hong Changqing lamented, "This matter is ultimately just one wrong step leading to many more wrong steps."

As he spoke, Hong Changqing's face turned slightly embarrassed as he said, "Before I told you that the reason I lost the elixir was because my own motivations weren't pure. But there's another thing, something I didn't tell you..."

Dragon Siqi asked, "What is it?"

Hong Changqing lowered his head and sighed, saying, "Originally, Mr. Ye had intended for me to join him as a disciple, but he prioritized others. And Mr. Ye gave me a Dan medicine that allowed my cultivation to directly break through to the realm of enlightenment and unity..."

"Enlightenment and unity?!" Dragon Siqi exclaimed in surprise, "Master... You... You've already reached enlightenment and unity?"

Hong Changqing cleared his throat, feeling extremely embarrassed, "You didn't know because you weren't here before. At that time, I had indeed reached the realm of enlightenment and unity. Mr. Ye wanted me to share the True Real Dao's martial arts secrets with him, but I refused on the grounds that I couldn't fulfill my duties as a master. I was afraid that if I showed too much obedience to Mr. Ye, he would realize that I wasn't suitable for the position..."

Dragon Siqi asked, "What does this have to do with your cultivation?"

Hong Changqing sighed deeply, "It's related... When I refused Mr. Ye back then, I did indeed have some petty thoughts, although I had received Mr. Ye's favor. As someone who has been a master for many years, serving others is hard work, and I've always had some unwillingness in my heart. So I thought that it would be better to let Mr. Ye think that I'm not suitable for the position, and then he might send me back to America..."

"Isn't that, Master?..." Dragon Siqi exclaimed in shock. "You just said that Mr. Ye gave you an elixir and helped you transcend to a state of great unity, but then you didn't want to do anything for Mr. Ye, isn't that begging someone for something?"

Hong Changqing scowled and said, "What's wrong with begging... Siqi, girls shouldn't talk like this."

Dragon Siqi spoke seriously. "Master, I'm just saying my honest thoughts. Although I don't know what kind of elixir Mr. Ye gave you or why it had such a strong effect, I can say that the elixir's effect was definitely worth billions of dollars!"

As he said this, Dragon Siqi paused for a moment and then continued, "So, based on your behavior, Master, I'm saying you're begging someone, which is actually very kind of me to say. It's because I'm your disciple that I don't want to say it too bluntly. Otherwise, if an outsider were to evaluate it, it would be even more difficult than begging..."

Hong Changqing looked extremely awkward and stretched out a hand to interrupt him, "Okay, Siqi, you won't talk? Just shut up for now... This matter is something I know I did wrong, so later on, I couldn't help but have to explain myself to Mr. Ye, that's why I called you to Jining to take over my position..."

As he said this, he waved his hand and spoke gloomily, "Or maybe we should discuss the current situation... Later, when we see Mr. Ye, what should we say to him?"

Dragon Siqi shook his head, "Master, you haven't explained anything yet, how is this related to your cultivation?"

Hong Changqing looked gloomy and said, "Forget it, just because I still have thoughts of True Real Dao and got angry with Mr. Ye, so Mr. Ye sealed off my meridians... It's just like what happened last time, but you were lucky, Mr. Ye only helped you transcend to a state of great unity and then sealed you back into the five-star martial artist level, whereas I was directly sealed by Mr. Ye, hardening me from a great unity martial artist to a four-star martial artist..."

"...hmm..."

Upon hearing Hong Changqing's words, Dragon Siqi suddenly couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Hong Changqing heard Dragon Siqi's laughter and his face turned bright red with anger, asking repeatedly, "What are you laughing at? Is it that funny?"

Dragon Siqi saw the look on Hong Changqing's face and was about to burst into laughter again, so she quickly suppressed her smile and bowed her head, saying, "Sorry, Master, I really couldn't help it..." JrNovels.com
