Shocking! A master of metaphysics has been mind-reading!

Knowing what Xia Wange wanted to say, Lu Qiu looked away.

It's so pretentious it's unbearable to watch.

I really want to record it and show it to her later.

However, Xia Wange was unaware that she was putting on a great show.

"This gentleman surnamed Qian..." Xia Wange raised her hand, then gently turned her nameplate over, and said with a light smile, "I am not very talented, but I happen to be Fang Qingzi's senior uncle. Even if we round it down, I am still your elder. You just said that seniority is the measure of rank. I seem to be two generations above you, so I can at least be called senior uncle by you."

Before Master Qian could react, Xia Wange quickly raised her hand and said, "Of course, I was just giving an example. Please don't call me 'Uncle-Master.' Our Qingya Peak has impeccable lineage, and we value aptitude and talent when accepting disciples. Putting aside everything else, character alone is crucial. One must be magnanimous, not petty, not bully others, not disrespectful to elders, and must care for the younger generation and guide them on the right path. To be honest, someone like you would be doing me a huge favor by calling me 'Uncle-Master,' so please don't call me that. I won't acknowledge it even if you do."

Xia Wange had shut him down with both direct and indirect arguments. Master Qian's face turned pale and then red, and he had no way to refute her. In fact, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

To everyone's surprise, this young girl is actually Fang Qingzi's martial aunt from Qingya Peak! The character on that sign is clearly the character for "cloud"!

What does this mean? The first batch of disciples that Qingya Peak's original patriarch accepted were all from the Yun generation! Even he, a newcomer to the profession, knew this!

She was on the phone with Fang Qingzi just now. She didn't remember much else, but she did remember a few things. That was, the plaque of Qingya Peak was originally a symbol of status and was extremely useful. When something happened, the plaque could get many famous feng shui masters to come to her aid.

She was quite surprised that brand names were so useful, but she still maintained her composure and asked, "Isn't it a bit inappropriate to use your influence to bully others like this?"

After a long silence, Fang Qingzi said, "Uncle-Master, this prestige of Qingya Peak was built by your disciples and grand-disciples."

Upon hearing this, if she weren't still on the phone and surrounded by so many people, she would have wanted to slap her thigh in frustration. She had never officially entered the circle before and had no idea that this brand was so powerful. She had been raising brands for fun out of boredom, and thought it was just a way for fellow members to recognize each other, just like last time when she recognized someone as a member of Qingya Peak by the brand on their waist.

Oh, that's not how it is!

So this brand is good for showing off!

Wow! She has so many! I should have worn them all over!

While the two sides remained silent, the surrounding masters were practically in an uproar.

"Wait, I see, it's someone from the Yun generation? The Yun generation of Qingya Peak? And so young? My god! Coming today was definitely the right decision!"

"There's actually someone still alive from the Yun generation? Could this sign be fake?"

"Are you crazy? Who would fake this? It would be obvious so easily!"

"Could it be that someone lost it and this little girl found it?"

"What are you thinking? Every person from Qingya Peak nurtures this token with their soul, which takes an extremely long time. It's already incredible that each of them can nurture one. Moreover, no matter where the token is, its owner can clearly sense it. How could it possibly be lost? It's a symbol of status."

"Exactly, do you think this brand is available wholesale? You get a whole bunch of random ones, and if you lose one, you just wear another one and never bother looking for it again?"

Hearing this, Xia Wange silently withdrew his hand from the bag, which was about to pull out a bunch of things he was wearing. Lu Qiu raised his hand and touched the name tag that Xia Wange was wearing around his neck, and pursed his lips.

Yes, there are indeed people who wholesale branded products.

"Sister Xia, if you're so amazing, why didn't you come out and show off sooner? My friend was so worried he was about to jump into the river." Du Yun whispered to Xia Wange, "You should have brought the sign over tonight."

Xia Wange didn't move her lips, but lowered her voice and replied, "I only just found out that I could pretend to be this big. If I had known, I would have collapsed."

After hearing this, Du Yun felt refreshed. He looked at Master Qian and said, "Hey you, didn't you say you value seniority? Apologize to Master Xia. Master Xia is an elder, and it's her magnanimity that she didn't pursue the matter. If you don't apologize, then you're being inconsiderate."

The words may be crude, but the principle is sound. Everyone around was shrewd enough to understand Master Qian's initial plan: to use the newcomer to establish his authority. However, he hadn't expected to run into such a tough opponent. Several people who already disliked Master Qian began to speak up:

"Qian Jia, since you've offended a senior, apologize. It's your good fortune to be able to apologize to someone from the Yun generation of Qingya Peak; you might even get some pointers."

"Yes, yes, apologizing to Master Xia is not shameful."

"Alright, apologize now. This is over. We have more important business to attend to."

Xia Wange looked at Master Qian, whose fists were clenched tightly, his teeth were clenched, and his withered body swayed slightly, clearly indicating that he was extremely agitated.

Just when she thought the other party would stubbornly insist on their domineering attitude, they suddenly loosened their fists, clasped their hands in a fist and said, "I'm sorry, Master Xia, I was blind to your greatness and offended you. Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me."

Xia Wange raised one eyebrow slightly. The way she said it made it seem like she was the one who started the trouble. Judging from the other person's eyes, she was clearly not convinced.

Xia Wange cleared her throat and said, "Xiao Qian, don't always talk about how you've been learning your craft for over ten years. You should know that there are always people better than you and that you can't just vent your anger on others. Although I'm young, only 23 years old in the traditional sense, I've been learning my craft for 22 years. No matter what, I'm no worse than you. Don't try to be superior to others. Be more open-minded, and your path will be easier. Being impatient for quick success and arrogant will shorten your lifespan."

The surrounding masters all turned their heads in surprise. Although Master Xia felt that he hadn't said anything, it seemed like he had cursed everything.

The person in charge, who had been watching anxiously from the sidelines, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the situation take a dramatic turn. None of the masters he had invited were willing to submit to each other. He had originally wanted to invite Master Fang Qingzi to give the event a proper show, but Master Fang Qingzi said he was on a business trip and had entrusted someone else to come instead. He didn't dare to ask who it was.

When this person came with Lu Qiu and Du Yun, he thought it was Du Yun who brought her to broaden her horizons, but he never expected that she was the one who was truly worldly!

Now that we have a leader, things are much easier to handle.

So he quickly stepped in to smooth things over, "Master Xia, please preside over this gathering of masters and let's discuss how to solve the bridge problem. We really can't take it anymore with the bridge constantly jumping into the river like this."

Upon hearing this, Xia Wange took out her phone and glanced at it. It was already 12:10. In five minutes, it would be the same time that Master Li jumped into the river from the highest point.
