Chapter 1289: Chapter 1289: Everyone Kneel and Beg for rcy! I’d Rather Die Than Sign!
Leng Xueqin and Hualing’s expressions changed simultaneously, their eyes fixed intently on the manuscript in their hands, their expressions turning sour.
Indeed, in the Cultivation World, cultivators respect the Heavenly Dao, understanding that even verbal commitnts carry weight. Cultivators typically don’t make promises lightly, but once given, they fulfill them.
Therefore, for minor matters, a verbal commitnt is usually sufficient.
A written manuscript requiring signatures from both parties, however, is generally reserved for significant matters, such as:
Forming a master-disciple contract, a master-servant agreent with a Spiritual Pet, marriage contracts, Dao partner agreents, life-and-death duels…
Only these situations warrant a formal manuscript.
Thinking it over, there was only one possibility for this manuscript—
Expelling them from the sect!
Hualing was completely shocked; he had been confined to Evildoer Island for decades, bringing such disgrace to his master, who showed only a big talk and little action, rely scolding him a few tis, without ever suggesting kicking him out of the sect.
Could this be settling scores? Expelling both him and his elder sister?
No, this was simply impossible. What kind of person was his master? Could they, as disciples, not be aware?
Hualing wailed miserably, tears and snot flowing together, occasionally accompanied by a hiccup, making him appear truly pitiable.
Beside him, Leng Xueqin clung tightly to the manuscript, her lips trembling with the difficult effort to speak: “I won’t sign.”
They are orphans, without parents, drifting aimlessly through the world.
Taken in by Bai Chuwei for decades, they long considered their master as family. How could they simply abandon that?
Bai Chuwei frowned, uttering just two words: “Sign it quickly.”
Liu Qi and Wen Xi were moved, and several newly accepted inner sect disciples exchanged glances, bowing to Bai Chuwei in unison, pleading earnestly: “Master, please show rcy, don’t expel our elder sister and brother from the sect!”
With Liu Qi leading the plea, even the new students watching nearby spoke sincerely:
“Immortal Teacher, although I greatly desire to be your direct disciple, don’t kick them out of the sect!”
“Yes, they haven’t committed any grave offenses. Senior Hualing was even publicly praised by China’s officials, don’t expel them from the sect!”
“Vice-Dean Bai, weren’t you just offending the Heavenly Dao for their sake? Expelling them now makes that offense aningless. Why not just let it go, reducing big matters to small and small matters to none, resolving it with a smile?”
“…”
Hualing was so moved his tears flowed even more; there were indeed kind-hearted people in this world.
These juniors were truly adorable, advocating on their behalf.
Were it not for the limited spots within the sect, he wished all these juniors could beco his junior disciples!
Bai Chuwei rubbed her forehead, her tone a bit impatient: “Really not signing? Don’t regret it.”
Hualing replied without hesitation: “I won’t sign. I definitely won’t regret it.”
He knew signing and being kicked out of the sect would bring lifelong regret!
Leng Xueqin paused, a hint of doubt crossing her eyes. Her cold fingers cautiously picked up the manuscript, gently opening it, causing her entire body to freeze, her beautiful eyes filled with shock, “This—”
This what?
Hualing felt puzzled and hurriedly picked up his own manuscript, reading it, his body instantly freezing!
Students around were filled with curiosity. What on earth was this thing? Why were the elder sister and brother so dumbstruck?
Could it really be that surprising?
Bai Chuwei propped her chin with one hand, curling her lips into a smile full of aning, as she softly asked: “Do you regret it now?”
Hualing: “…”
Damn, he was about to regret it so much!
This wasn’t a manuscript terminating the master-disciple relationship, it was—
