Jiangli impatiently said, "If I were asleep, would I still be talking to you now?"
"True..."
Xia Xin awkwardly smiled.
He rubbed his hands and kept giving Fu’er aningful looks.
Fu’er sniffed and hesitantly asked, "Ancestor, are they here to invite our Jiaoyang Temple to re-enter the Xuann roster?"
Jiangli: "Eavesdropping?"
Xia Xin imdiately explained, "It’s not eavesdropping! Didn’t Uncle Pei Jiu and Uncle Du ntion it once last ti? Then, a few days ago, before we went out of town, Uncle Pei Jiu even sent a private ssage saying he wanted to visit, but we were out of town and missed it, and unexpectedly they ca today. So, I was thinking, could it be because of re-entering the Xuann?"
Upon hearing this, Jiangli gave a faint "hmm."
Xia Xin and Fu’er exchanged a glance.
Xia Xin cautiously asked, "Ancestor, they’ve invited us twice already, shouldn’t we agree?"
Jiangli waved a fan nonchalantly, "Why should we agree? The predecessor of today’s Xuann Association was founded by alone. Entering and leaving is my freedom, who else has the right to expel or invite? Furthermore, I don’t think much of the current Xuann Association."
Xia Xin: "..."
This doesn’t seem right.
Clearly, the ancestor previously said they should be invited three tis, but now it sounds like she doesn’t plan to rejoin the Xuann roster?
Xia Xin was suddenly a bit doubtful.
Fu’er also felt sothing was off, but what Jiangli said made sense.
Jiangli once was the Sect Leader of Xuann, controlling the entire Xuann with everyone looking up to her.
After years of absence, her sect was kicked out of the Xuann roster just like that.
Want her to rejoin? Impossible.
It’s already restraint that Jiangli doesn’t cause an upheaval in the Xuann Association now.
Thinking about it, Fu’er accepted it, "If the ancestor doesn’t want to rejoin Xuann, then we won’t. Anyway, Jiaoyang Temple isn’t relying on them."
Upon hearing this, Xia Xin paused, nodded, and agreed, "Fu’er is right. We don’t have to join the Xuann Association; the most important thing is the ancestor’s happiness."
Jiangli humd softly, then suddenly changed the subject, "However... That Master Qu Lin is quite interesting."
Her words were full of mockery and sarcasm.
Ordinary people, like Uncle Pei Jiu and such, would have walked away by now.
Of course, that’s the effect Jiangli wanted.
But Master Qu Lin’s response was completely unexpected to Jiangli.
Jiangli couldn’t quite understand what was in this person’s mind.
"I’m not familiar with Master Qu Lin either, I only know he’s the current president of the Xuann Association, and I’ve heard he’s quite formidable. Everyone in the Xuann Association is very deferential to him." Xia Xin rubbed his chin and shared everything he knew.
Jiangli raised an eyebrow, "Forget about Qu Lin for now. Before leaving, he ntioned that Xuann is about to experience a turmoil. Do any of you know anything about this?"
Xia Xin and Fu’er exchanged a glance.
The next second, both of them shook their heads simultaneously, knowing nothing.
Jiangli frowned, "Xia Xin—"
Being called upon, Xia Xin imdiately stood at attention, "Here!"
Jiangli was amused by his stance, "Go and ask around on the forums, see if there’s any recent turmoil in the Xuann Association."
Xia Xin was a bit puzzled, "Ancestor, aren’t we not planning to rejoin Xuann, why ask about this?"
Jiangli raised an eyebrow, "Just go if I tell you to. Know yourself and your enemy, and you will win a hundred battles, understand?"
Xia Xin still didn’t quite understand, but under Jiangli’s threatening gaze, he quickly responded with an "oh," hurriedly held his phone, and logged onto the forum.
However, after browsing the forum for a while, Xia Xin couldn’t find any special news.
