Chapter 512: Chapter 514 Confession (Part 8)
“What? Stronger than the Sect Leader?”
“How is that possible? The Sect Leader is already an Innate!”
If she is stronger than him, what level has she reached?
Mu Ruyue’s gaze swept over to the pale-faced Yi Die, and a cold light flashed in her eyes, “My master kindly took you in, and in the end, you still want to harm him?”
Yi Die’s body shook, and she screamed loudly, “I didn’t harm him, was it not he himself who colluded with the Martial Sect to target the Qingming Sect?”
“Martial Sect?” Mu Ruyue chuckled softly, “If he needs the Qingming Sect, why wouldn’t I just take it and give it to him? Why would he need to collude with any Martial Sect?”
The people, already doubtful of Yi Die’s words, shifted their gaze unanimously onto the girl on the ground…
The lady made a good point, with her strength, taking the Qingming Sect was not a problem. Why would she need to collude with the Martial Sect? Wouldn’t that be superfluous?
Yi Die’s face alternated between pale and flushed, her tightly clenched fists trembling slightly.
Suddenly, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of her lips, and her eyes revealed a pain, “I had no choice, every time I suggested he teach me as an Alchemy Master, he refused on the grounds that I was not qualified. Since he was unkind to me, don’t blame me for being unjust! There’s no need to placate me with some reasons!”
While saying this, undisguised hatred appeared in her eyes.
“Even if what you say is true, so what?” Mu Ruyue raised her cold eyes and said indifferently, “Don’t forget, the master saved you when you were alone and about to die. He brought you to his side, ensured you had food and drink, and provided you with opportunities for cultivation. What more do you want? Whether he teaches you or not is his prerogative, no one can force him!”
Some people are never satisfied. You treat them well, and they think it’s owed to them, always wanting to take it a step further, otherwise, you are at fault.
During her time in Huaxia, one of Mu Ruyue’s friends had a deep realization of this…
Her friend had once helped a school drop-out, and regularly provided him with money. There was a time when she was out on a mission and disappeared for several months. After a few months, she received a call from the boy, reproaching her for not sending money during those months, and even more absurdly asked her to make up for the missing months.
When her friend mentioned this incident to her, the words she spoke still stayed fresh in her memory.
She said, from then on, she wouldn’t stop her inclination to do good deeds, but she would no longer nurture these people’s entitlement. Whenever someone thought it was their entitlement, she would stop aiding them.
Now Yi Die’s behavior made her recall that friend from Huaxia…
“When someone helps you, you should be grateful, not assume that they are obligated to help you. He’s neither your relative nor your master. Why should he help you?”
Mu Ruyue lowered her gaze towards Yi Die’s ashen face, a cold sneer curling her lips even more deeply.
“No … It’s not like that…” Yi Die’s voice trembled, and beyond that, she could say no more.
She understood that what Mu Ruyue said made a lot of sense, yet she didn’t want to believe it…
For a long time, she had taken it for granted that Wu Yu would help her, never once considering this perspective…
“Bang!”
Mu Ruyue raised her hand, causing a strong gust of wind, flinging Yi Die’s body away and slamming her hard against a rock, making her almost burst into tears from the pain.
