Being poked by his disciple on the spot, Hong Changqing couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed.
He sighed and said helplessly, “SiQi, since we have come to this point, then I will tell you the truth, that medicinal tripod, it was my master’s malicious intent in the first place, stealing the chicken but losing the rice, it is not to blame on Master Ye ……”
Long Siqi looked at a somewhat ashamed Hong Changqing and asked in surprise, “Master, what is going on here?”
With a long sigh, Hong Changqing then told Long Siqi all about why he had come to Jinling in the first place, and how he had deliberately set Shi Tianqi up after arriving in Jinling.
After hearing this, Long Siqi could not help but complain, “Master, this tactic of yours is indeed a bit too much …… If we look deeper, isn’t this a fraud?”
Hong Changqing covered his face with one hand and said despondently, “Wasn’t my master a bit eager to get the job done at that time …… I thought that that Shi Tianqi was at least a famous doctor of his generation, and it was unlikely that he was short of money, so if I wanted to buy one of his tubes, he would definitely not sell it, so I thought that I would lure him to have a bet with my master to make a bet ……”
“Moreover, my master felt that this kind of person, if I were to bet with him with money, he would not take me on, so my master took out the pill censer and wanted to be a bait ……”
“I just didn’t expect …… to end up in such a mess ……”
Long Siqi could not help but blame, “Master! Since that Medicine Cauldron is the treasure of our Tai Zhen Dao sect, then you can’t take it out no matter what!”
Hong Changqing spread his hands and said with a chagrined expression, “I originally thought that since I was setting a trap for him, I would win and not lose, and taking out the pill censer would just lure him into a trap, and I would never lose the pill censer. The matter is beyond my master’s control ……”
Long Siqi could not help but speak up, “Master, you are so disappointing.”
Hong Changqing was ashamed, but still said with a serious face, “Siqi, it’s true that I was confused for a moment and made a big mistake. …… But to be honest, as the saying goes, if a man loses his horse, how can he know it’s not a blessing? If I hadn’t pulled this stunt, I wouldn’t have met Master Ye so quickly! And Master Ye is quite good to me, willing to let me stay by his side and saddle up for him.”
Long Siqi frowned and asked, “Master, you are at least the head of Tai Zhen Dao, even if that Master Ye is very powerful, you don’t have to leave the position of Tai Zhen Dao’s head behind just because you can serve him, right?”
Hong Changqing waved his hand and said seriously, “What do you know? In order to be able to hear the Tao, it doesn’t matter if I die, what does the position of Sect Leader mean?”
With that, Hong Changqing said with a serious face, “Siqi, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart, after so many years of development, there are not even a few masters who can enter the Dark Realm.
Long Siqi thought about it and said, “Perhaps it’s because the qualifications of our disciples and grandchildren are too poor and they don’t have the conditions to become Dark Realm experts ……”
