Young Master Xing nodded sympathetically and sighed, "Starlight, it's indeed not easy for you."

As he spoke, he took out the Communication Jade, connected with the Five Spirits Gu, and casually said something.

In an instant, one of the five shopkeepers who followed him appeared in the pavilion like a ghost.

Young Master Xing said lightly, "Find out when Starlight Master first arrived to take up his post in Baiyun State, what the initial situation was, how the sub branch started, and then investigate in detail."

"Yes."

The person immediately turned around and disappeared with a swoosh.

Young Master Xing turned around, looked at Starlight Master, took a deep breath, and said, "The story is very exciting, the experiences quite tortuous, and indeed evoke sympathy. I have to say, I still believe you are not Yemo."

Starlight Master smiled bitterly and said self-deprecatingly, "Actually, being seen by Young Master Xing as Yemo, it's acceptable. Because for me, it means more resource channels. Yemo is much more valuable than Starlight."

Young Master Xing laughed heartily, "You have quite a beautiful thought, but if you're not, you aren't. I originally thought you two were a bit too similar, but now it seems... probably not."

Starlight Master gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, I have a suspicion."

"What suspicion?" Young Master Xing asked.

"This..." Starlight Master found it hard to speak, "Actually, I suspect, if one day Yemo must die, then... would the Sect Hierarch throw me out as a scapegoat."

After saying this, he panted heavily and lowered his head.

Young Master Xing's eyes narrowed.

Evidently, this matter, upon hearing it now, is highly plausible!

Young Master Xing thought for a moment, then smiled broadly, "But now, at least I know. Since I know, then Yin Shen Palace can no longer use you as a scapegoat. Do you believe that?"

"I believe!" Starlight Master said gratefully, "Thank you, Young Master Xing."

Young Master Xing smiled and said, "Actually, it's better that you're not Yemo. And not having participated in the Cultivating Gu to Become a God Plan, even better."

"What do you mean by that?"

Starlight Master stared with bewildered wide eyes.

Young Master Xing didn't explain, but instead laughed, "You've always said your fate is bad. But in my view, your fate is extremely good, too good."

Starlight Master was visibly displeased, though not daring to explode, his face nonetheless looked a bit ugly, with a sort of 'having a scar suddenly revealed' expression, he said coldly, "Young Master Xing, you must be joking."

Seeing his displeased expression, Young Master Xing instead laughed heartily, "I said your fate is good, don't you believe it? How does your cultivation compare to Yemo?"

"Not as good." Starlight Master took a breath and said gloomily.

"Can he kill you?" Young Master Xing asked with a smile.

"...Yes." Starlight Master said, face darkening.

"Isn't that right?"

Young Master Xing said, "During the Cultivating Gu to Become a God Plan, Yin Shen Palace had already discovered Ren Zhongyuan's conspiracy. Among those from Yixin Sect who went in, most were likely killed by Yemo."

"Had you gone in at that time and encountered Yemo, wouldn't you have been doomed? Look at the other Yixin Sect members who went in, who came out alive? So compared to them, wasn't your injury this time worth it? Isn't your fate incredibly good?"

"So when I say your fate is good, what's the problem?"

"Even stepping back, if you had gone in and come out alive, do you think your Yin Sect Leader would have allowed you to live until now?"

Young Master Xing chuckled, "Starlight, your fate is indeed good!"

Starlight Master looked bewildered, a mix of bitterness and relief spreading across his face.

After a long time, he scratched his head and said, "I've really never associated my fate with being good. But after what Young Master Xing said today, I'm feeling... so complicated? Could it be that...um, I'm truly lucky?"

Having said the words "fate is good" himself, his expression became even more twisted, "Damn... to be in such a mess, and someone says it's lucky, this, this..."

Seeing his tangled look, Young Master Xing couldn't help bursting into laughter, "Understand now? Starlight! Comparing good luck and fate, don't compare yourself to the living, compare with the dead."

Starlight Master's face was twisted.

What you said makes so much sense.

I am left speechless.

Young Master Xing started brewing tea again, inviting Starlight Master for a drink, and sighed, "Starlight, I must say, the sub branch you've built is impressive."

"It was also luck."

Starlight Master said, "I was pushed to the wall, Young Master Xing, if I didn't fight, I wouldn't even have my life, let alone a sub branch. So initially, I used a lot of extreme measures."

On this point, Young Master Xing was exceptionally understanding, "What's the matter with that? As long as you succeed, throwing in a few more lives would be fine."

Starlight Master was covered in sweat, "I don't dare anymore, I don't dare. Just this much, and I worry about being ambushed and having my head cut off anytime I go out..."

Young Master Xing laughed heartily, very delighted.

Just then, the shopkeeper who had left earlier returned, handing over a stack of papers.

Then he immediately withdrew.

Young Master Xing accepted it, placed it in front of himself, and read it word by word, savoring it.

The document was very detailed, from Starlight on his own, gathering a few elderly, infirm ones, or those collected from various shops to establish the sub branch, to intimidating Qiao Yishu, overpowering Liu Hanshan... all the way to the present, everything was included.

And below were also testimonies from Zhao Wushang and others.

All in unison.

To testify to the ruthlessness of Starlight Master in those days.

How unreasonable, how fierce and evil, how he leveraged power to bully others, how shameless, how he threw tantrums...

Recorded clearly.

Young Master Xing read and laughed heartily, overjoyed.

Starlight Master looked twisted, his lips moved silently cursing, clearly scolding Zhao Wushang and others for their big mouths...
