Children are born pure, like a blank sheet of paper, whom they become is dependent on the parents who educate them.

For example… Chen Qingyan…

She was a woman who was as evil as her mother.

“Manor Master, now you tell me, is it good or evil?” Elder Zhang remained in silence for quite a while before he asked again.

Gu s.h.i.+ shook his head. “I"m not sure, and I can"t think about other things right now. But… The surrounding spiritual qi is located at Mu Manor. I don"t know if someone from the Mu family has subjugated it, or… The Qin family has brought it with them.”

He was clear about the Qin family bringing someone to harm the Mu family, which was why he had asked Qin Chen to return there as he could guard this boundary on his own now.

“Elder Zhang, you can bring along our skilled masters to help. I"ll be fine here.”

“But, Manor Master, your body…” Elder Zhang looked worried.

The manor master and Qin Fei"er had fought back then. Qin Fei"er was unable to defeat the manor master, but he had still suffered some light injuries.

Perhaps the Qin family wanted to get rid of people who were protecting the chief manor first, which was why they had attacked the Luo family and the Mu family first.

“I"m fine… I"ll wait for Yiyi, Little Qing and the others here… You can help Master Mu, after all… The chief manor and the old master Mu are still in-laws, and that"s all I can do right now.”

The Qin family was right. He was too busy looking after himself.

In the battle two days ago, not only was he injured, but even the chief manor"s skilled masters had been killed and wounded.

The Qin family felt that he would not get anywhere, so they wanted to kill the others first…

“Cough!” Gu s.h.i.+ coughed and sneered. “You should go. If you help the Mu family, it"s the same as giving a warning to Qin Li! I"m not seriously injured, so I can afford to send you to help them there. By this way, maybe we"ll have a chance… A chance to help Yiyi return now…”

He could not die!

If he died, Yiyi would never come back!

Half a year ago, he had discovered an ancient book by chance in the secret room in the chief manor.

It was from that ancient book that he had learned the origin of the boundary and the way to break the seal…

The people inside could not get out without help from the outside.

Therefore, he could only stay in the chief manor, and once they returned, he could go back to the battle!

Maybe…

Gu s.h.i.+ was still hoping.

Besides Yiyi, Nan Xian was also trapped within the formation!

He was a man who had always made him sigh.

So… If they returned, the Qin family would never dare to be arrogant again.

Therefore, even though he was severely injured in that battle, he still managed to hold himself up in front of the Qin family as he was afraid that the Qin family would kill the manor master first. Otherwise, those people within the boundary would never be able to return…

“Manor Master!!!” Elder Zhang"s face was filled with worry.

Gu s.h.i.+ laughed. “Hurry and go. I"m fine here. Master Mu is Yiyi"s future father-in-law, so I can"t just stand here and watch the Mu family fall. Even if we can"t do anything anymore, we must at least do our best to help him, do you understand?”

This was the only sincerity he could give.

If it were not for the need to guard the boundary of this place… He would have dragged his wounded body to fight the Qin family, but he could not do that now! He could not act so recklessly.

“Alright.”

Elder Zhang"s voice was rough and hoa.r.s.e. He looked at Gu s.h.i.+, who was sitting on the ground as he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. He then turned around firmly and disappeared into the back of the mountain.
