"Tiezhu, have you really thought this through? Taking a master is not child's play. Once you enter my Shimen, you must be loyal and never betray me, or else I won't go easy on you."
Tiezhu nodded, "When my mom was alive, she told me that whoever treats us well, we should treat them well. Young Sect Leader, you're my idol, everyone in the group says you're great, so you must be good to Tiezhu too. As long as you don't abandon me, Tiezhu will follow you always!"
When Tiezhu's mother was mentioned, An Yiqing's mind recalled the information she saw this morning. Tiezhu's mother was a widow living in a destitute mountain village. When Tiezhu was less than a year old, his father fell and died while gathering herbs on a mountain, leaving behind a baby needing care.
Tiezhu's mother bore her grief and struggled to raise Tiezhu until he was five years old, only for misfortune to strike this poor woman again.
