The Strongest Prodigy Doctor

If my master, Tian Chu Zhenren, really knew that I had broken the prohibition, then back at that time, he didn't come to stop me for so long, surely he respected my final decision. Besides, those senior brothers would have told Master Tian Chu Zhenren after they went back.

In other words, I've already been exposed. If my master made up his mind not to let me participate in this battle, he surely would have come out to find me despite the risk, forced me to go back, and then placed a prohibition on me again.

Another thing is, Sect Leader Fu Yuan of the Shan Sect must have doubts about me suddenly appearing there. What if I were an enemy in disguise? In special times, special measures are necessary. Sect Leader Fu Yuan must have communicated with Zhen Chu Zhenren, and my master surely knows that I am now at the Shan Sect.

Ye Tianfan gave Yu Shan a bitter smile and said, "Looks like I've always taken things for granted!"

"That's not it. After all, Junior Brother Tianfan, you started halfway, and it's only been three or four years, so you don't know much about the affairs of the immortal world. It's not your fault, but it's also a weakness of yours!" Yu Shan began, "The fact that you've reached such a high level of cultivation in such a short time is astonishing, but don't forget to expand your knowledge base. Only by expanding your knowledge can you stand taller, see further, and prepare yourself mentally for future challenges, having a bottom line from previous experiences so you won't panic."

Ye Tianfan nodded with a wry smile, never expecting that after almost reading through the Taihuo Peak library, he would still feel so lacking in knowledge!

Sigh!

Ye Tianfan sighed deeply and then said to Yu Shan, "In that case, I'll go back! Since Master has agreed to let me participate in this war, I'd better stop wandering around before it comes. After all, being outside doesn't reassure him as much as staying by his side would!"

"True, but won't you stay a couple more days? I would think the sect leader has already discussed with Elder Taichu, knowing you're at the Shan Sect, they shouldn't worry about you too much!" Yu Shan smiled and said.

"Forget it! At this critical moment, I should return to my own sect. If there are any assignments, I can practice in advance! Better to sweat more now than to bleed more later!" Ye Tianfan said with a laugh.

"Alright, then I won't see you off!" Yu Shan laughed and said, "After all, I still have some arrangements to finish here!"

"Alright, I'm leaving then!" Ye Tianfan waved his hand and turned to walk down the mountain, but after just a couple of steps, he stopped and said to Yu Shan, "By the way, please tell Sect Leader Fu Yuan that I'm not avoiding paying my respects; it's just that the current situation is special, and after this period, I will come to apologize with a willow branch in hand."

"Sure, no problem!" Yu Shan replied with a smile, while internally pondering, apologize with a willow branch? I know what apologizing is, but what's with the willow branch? Why carry it? Is there a saying for it? But these four characters do sound pretty fluent together.

Yu Shan thought with mixed feelings, having just advised someone to read more books, yet a single idiom from another's mouth already had him bewildered. Tonight, I'll read a couple more pages, not sleep until I finish!

Ye Tianfan hadn't anticipated that the idiom he casually used would lead Yu Shan to read two more pages.

At the Taichu Peak of the Taichu Sect.

"Are you relieved now? Nephew Tianfan is in the Shan Sect and hasn't run off anywhere else." Zhen Chu Zhenren put down the secret treasure in his hand and smiled as he spoke to Tian Chu Zhenren.

"Relieved? I'm not even worried about that rebellious disciple, who actually broke the prohibition I placed with my own hands, and even ran away!" Tian Chu Zhenren snorted coldly.

"I say, Junior Brother Tian Chu, you sure say one thing but don't laugh, okay? You're about to burst into laughter!" Zhen Chu Zhenren looked helplessly at Tian Chu Zhenren, whose mouth was nearly reaching his ears.

"Who's laughing? I'm furious enough as it is, actually broke the prohibition I personally set, and then ran away? Does that sound reasonable to you?" Tian Chu Zhenren retorted.

"Yes, I know Nephew Tianfan is impressive, able to break your prohibition, but isn't it unnecessary to keep repeating it?" Beside him, Zhen Chu Zhenren looked somewhat speechlessly at Tian Chu Zhenren, who had been harping on about this ever since Ye Tianfan left Taihuo Peak.

"You don't understand my feelings. Imagine, your most cherished disciple, actually broke the prohibition you personally set, and then ran away! Tell me, could you handle that?" Tian Chu Zhenren turned and said to Zhen Chu Zhenren.

Zhen Chu Zhenren, hearing this, sucked in his breath and raised his hand to slap himself. Why did I even engage him? If I hadn't, wouldn't there have been less trouble?

"Why hit yourself? If anyone deserves a slap, it's my disciple who broke the prohibition I personally set and then ran away." Tian Chu Zhenren commented.

Upon hearing this, Zhen Chu Zhenren furrowed his brows and averted his gaze, feeling that if he looked any longer, his gums might start aching.

"What's going on here? Why are you all like this? I'm extremely angry right now, and yet you treat me this way? You all don't experience your disciple breaking the prohibition you personally set and then running away, but it happened under my guidance, a disciple who broke the prohibition I personally set and then ran away. It's really infuriating! When my disciple Tianfan, who broke the prohibition I personally set and then ran away, comes back, I must confine him, without question!" Tian Chu Zhenren declared to everyone.

Zhen Chu Zhenren helplessly held his forehead, thinking, "Heavens, could a lightning bolt strike down and rid us of this nagging person?"

"Sect Leader Senior Brother!"

Just as Zhen Chu Zhenren was feeling exasperated, he suddenly heard Tian Chu Zhenren shout fiercely, hastily looking at him in confusion, "What's wrong?"

After Zhen Chu Zhenren finished speaking, he noticed the other junior brothers all looking at him in disbelief. Zhen Chu Zhenren was dumbfounded; what was going on here? Why were they looking at him like that? He hadn't done anything, right?

Then Zhen Chu Zhenren heard Tian Chu Zhenren's question, "Sect Leader Senior Brother, who were you calling nagging? Who did you want to strike with lightning?"
