Yuer’s smile faded as she stepped forward to take her master’s hand. "Master, are you alright?"
Master Liu, tears welling in her eyes, bowed deeply to Yulan, who stood nearby in deep thought. "Sister Yulan, I thank you on behalf of all our disciples. Had it not been for you, who knows how many years we would have had to wait to exact our revenge."
Senior Yu’s protection had merely kept them from being bullied. For instance, when the Ghost Tiger Sect had dared to covet them despite knowing they were under Senior Yu’s protection, it had naturally invited a thunderous blow from him. However, Senior Yu was not their hired blade; he had no obligation to settle their old scores. If he hadn't been looking to give Yulan some practical experience, this vendetta might have had to wait until Yuer matured, or perhaps even been passed down to the next generation—or remained unavenged forever.
