"Elder Yao, what do you mean by that?"
Hua Shu was startled.
Logically, Xu Xing should be grateful for her kindness.
Even if he was reluctant to be stationed at the sect headquarters, he wouldn't go so far as to voice such remarks.
"You are of the Sect Master's lineage and should be contributing to the lineage! The sect has already voiced considerable displeasure about relocating you to Five Thunder Mountain to seek refuge this time…"
"If Elder Yao doesn't contribute this time, I'm afraid my, the Sect Master's lineage, will lose popular support within the sect."
Hua Shu, not dwelling on the meaning behind Xu Xing's words, continued her earnest persuasion.
Unless absolutely necessary, she didn't want to resort to force to eliminate Xu Xing, this scourge. In the over one hundred years Xu Xing had been in the Qiming Sect, he had completed the tasks assigned by the sect with an almost one hundred percent success rate.
