Xie Pinggang was indeed very upset.
He was not a fool. Of course, he knew that the foolish girl was actually capable. She could tell fortunes and capture ghouls. Although she was afraid of ghouls, she was more daring than an ordinary girl.
However, would a capable person have to go through so much trouble to capture ghouls and kill monsters?
She was not Master Mo who had lived for 30 to 40 years and was an advanced Taoist master. She had seen all kinds of things. If she died, she died. There was no need to feel sorry for her.
His sister was as young as a flower. She was not bad-looking. It was not easy for her to find a handsome husband like the Crown Prince. Naturally, he had to cherish her. He could not let anything happen to her!
Putting herself in danger?
He disagreed with that ten thousand times.
“Young Master Xie, this… depends on your sister’s own wishes.” Xie Qiao glanced at Zhao Xuanjing. She sighed and said kindly.
“At home, she would have to listen to her father and brother, and when she marries, she would have to listen to her husband. Her wishes? That doesn’t matter.” Xie Pinggang vented his anger through his nose like an old ox.
Xie Qiao looked down on the way Xie Pinggang was asking for a beating when he said these words!
“She lacks good karma. If she doesn’t do good deeds and accumulate good karma, then she will die. You don’t understand that.” Xie Qiao rolled her eyes at him.
Xie Pinggang fell into silence for a moment. “Is that the only way to gather good karma? We are all human. Why is my eldest sister’s life so unlucky? Could it be…
“That my parents’ grandparents did too much evil in the early years, so she’s suffering from bad karma? That’s not right. She’s so young. She won’t be carrying on the family line. If someone is to be punished, it should be me, right? If it really won’t do , I still have a younger brother. That idiot is useless. Can you give him that pair of eyes and the weak body instead?”
Xie Qiao almost could not hold it in anymore.
No!
“Minister Xie, the matter of retribution is nonsense.” Zhao Xuanjing could no longer hold it back. “Maybe the heavens saw that Young Lady Xie was born smart and intelligent, so they gave her some big responsibilities.”
“It’s purely…” nonsense.
Xie Pinggang said the first two words. Remembering that it was the Crown Prince, he forcefully swallowed the last word.
There were many smart people in the world. There were many masters in the Royal Academy. Each of them was smart and capable!
At the very least, was the Crown Prince not a natural prodigy?
The Crown Prince was great. His sister was nothing. Why could not she be an ordinary small fry?
The King of Hell was probably blind. He placed his eyes on Xie Qiao.
“Your Highness is right…” Xie Pinggang flattered him first, then he looked at Xie Qiao and said, “Master, if my family does more good deeds in the future, donating food, building bridges, repairing roads, and beating up barbarians, will my sister’s health be better?”
“I don’t know.” She could give an answer to other situations, but she could not figure out her own matter.
“Perhaps they’re good, but it’s definitely not as good as releasing souls, so I suggest…” Xie Qiao lowered her voice.
“No.” Xie Pinggang shook his head. “It’s fine for a young lady who deals with ghouls all day long. But when she’s 30 or 40, won’t she be like you, Master…”
“Ehem!” Zhao Xuanjing signaled him.
Xie Pinggang restrained himself. “Master, I don’t mean to despise you. It’s just that… you haven’t had anyone to take care of you when you travel around, right? You must have suffered a lot when you were out…”
Masters were usually emotionless and did not seem like a human being.
It was better for the young lady to have emotions. Being a walking corpse like Master Mo, she might as well be dead.
Moreover, Master Mo was only 30 to 40 years old and already neither dead or alive. When she was older, would she not be even more heartless?
No way! Absolutely not!
