The words stuck in his throat were swallowed back down.
It has been said long ago, the lineage of Swordmaster Peak is full of madmen, first there was Old Sect Master's crazy act to marry a sword as his wife, that madcap Liu Jian.
Then there was Liu Tangxi, the madwoman who, with sword in hand, would leave every day to fight Evil Cultivators, and despite fighting for decades, refused to return home, even the current Sect Master could not persuade her.
Indeed, the apple does not fall far from the tree; what the master is like, so is the disciple.
However, what this nephew says is indeed true, according to the rules of Purple Cloud Palace, if there is a dispute or dissatisfaction, it should be resolved behind the mountain.
It's indeed inappropriate to challenge an elder in terms of seniority, and to do it openly would invite criticism, but from the perspective of a Peak Master, there is nothing improper.
