Capítulo 1073: Chapter 755: Winter of Year One (Part 3)
This extraordinary Talent, coupled with the favoritism of his father and the Sect Master, has instead fostered an arrogant deanor in the child.
The child, relying on being the son of an elder and possessing exceptional talent, is constantly surrounded by a group of young disciples who shower him with admiration, and he frequently shows disdain for the gentle Young Master.
Yun Rong learned multiple tis from Junior Sister Shen Zhan that Bai Rui often took the opportunity when the Sect Master was out to rally the younger disciples in the sect to bully the Young Master.
This seemingly arrogant and domineering behavior actually harbors a cunning intent, as his actions subtly bolster his own status and diminish the Young Master’s standing in the hearts of many disciples.
If everyone could bully this diocre Young Master, then the Young Master would rely be enjoying the benefits of his status.
Though Junior Sister Shen Zhan ntioned this to the Sect Master several tis, Bai Rui, young as he is, is quite astute and best at pretending to be obedient in front of the Sect Master.
The Sect Master has always been satisfied with his talent and character, and since he is the elder’s son, there is no reason to suspect a teenager without evidence.
Yun Rong also finds it odd: the Sect Master is as strict as a devil with his own child, yet is exceedingly lenient and indulgent towards the children of others, believing them without doubt.
What reasoning is this?
Over ti, Bai Rui bullying the Young Master beca a routine.
The Young Master, with a character much like his mother’s, would never complain to his father, even if he swallowed his anger and blood.
He matured early, and Junior Sister Shen Zhan couldn’t comprehend things he already understood.
Even if he told the Sect Master about these, the Sect Master would rely rebuke him for being petty.
Bai Rui is indeed like a young fox, maintaining good relationships within the sect, never bullying others, targeting only the Young Master.
Thus, in the Sect Master’s mind, if he is unruly, why does he not bully others and only you? Certainly, there must be sothing lacking in you, and you should reflect on yourself rather than unjustifiably accuse others.
Yun Rong scooped up a handful of cool river water, wetted it with a silk handkerchief, then gently wiped the blood and mud off his face using Spiritual Power to warm it.
She carefully avoided touching the wounds on his face.
The injuries were truly severe, with the skin and flesh cut by a dull edge and rust imbedded in the wound.
It seed as if soone had him trampled underfoot, unable to move, and could only watch helplessly as others marred his face.
Yun Rong’s autumn-like eyes gradually darkened, a boiling Sword Intent within, she spoke gently: “Was it Bai Rui and the others who injured you like this?”
The young fellow closed his eyes, letting her softly wipe his cheeks, understanding beyond his years yet heartbreaking.
He said, “Taking advantage of the Senior Brother’s absence, Bai Rui said doing howork was too boring, so he had his disciples pull out the two Spiritual Dogs he raised, and sent people to call down the Senior Sisters from the Outer Disciple area of the mountain, saying he wanted to instruct the Senior Sisters in their coursework.”
Yun Rong only learned today that the elder’s son had such a vicious habit of unleashing dogs to harm others.
Outside the Outer Disciple area, only Registered Disciples remain.
The Registered Disciples of the Xijian Sect mostly co from impoverished backgrounds, not fully admitted into the sect of the Tianxi Sword Sect.
They rely did nial labor and chores for the Outer Disciples, and were so humble that people could hardly rember their nas.
The Spiritual Dogs Bai Rui raised had Demon Beast bloodlines, a birthday gift from Elder Bai Shu when he was ten. In just four years, they had grown as big as horses, with a voracious appetite and an exceedingly ferocious temperant.
Those Registered Disciples practiced only the most basic Qi Refining Technique, barely stronger than ordinary mortal Martial Artists.
The Young Master also spoke of the Senior Sisters, all of whom were helpless female disciples, unable to withstand the two bites of the Spiritual Dogs.
Bai Rui was too audacious, daring to act so brazenly at the peak of Senior Brother’s mountain!
The Young Master continued, “He let the dogs attack people; several Senior Sisters had their limbs bitten and torn.”
Yun Rong looked steadily at the young fellow: “So you asked him to stop, and that angered him?”
The young fellow shook his head, calmly, with words startling: “I killed his dogs.”
