Red Strings of Connections

Chapter 16 Equal Value Exchange

"We're all aiming on the same goal, and it's not a race, if you have gotten strong and maybe Second Young Master Nie has ascended first then we'll be happy that we able to help."

"It's that what you learn from Baoshan Sanren?"

Cangse Sanren's smile has emptied and freeze as her pupil has lost it shines which makes the Nies to slightly taken aback unconsciously. "No comment." That caught them off guard.

Sect Leader Nie thinks that Zhuque sect were filled of funny, strange people, yet this sect might make a big change to this generation of cultivators.

Sect Leader Nie narrows his eyes as he's in deep thinking, in his mind their suggestion is not bad at all, oh but he forgot to ask something important.

"Say Sect Leader Zhu, what's the exchange of teaching my son?"

Yes, this is the important thing, and indeed it is important. What will their sect gain by helping them? Even you say it is just basic knowledge and practice, it is still worth a bargain.

Cangse Sanren hmm at first and with smile she turns to her son. "It is A-Ying idea, and it is A-Rein who will do the task of teaching." The two mentioned children turn their heads to their sect leader. "So, I think it's best to give them the merit to choose the exchange, yes?"

Tiao Reinshun and Wei Ying looks at each other, blinks as if it is enough to make a communication. Then turns like they were already finish talking. Both shrugged their shoulders.

"Dunno, I only want to help Second Young Master Nie, since he looks really trouble."

"I just want to prove to Sect Leader Nie the fan cultivation's worth."

'Naive!' is what Sect Leader Nie viewed the kids, if this continues one day someone will definitely take advantage of them.

"That's bad thinking. It's good that you like to help, but don't forget everything has to have an equal exchange, or else your kindness will be use against you in the future." Sect Leader Nie lectures.

Again, the two kids look at each other and starts to think, either about what have Sect Leader Nie advice to them or that value exchange. Once again, they turn back to Sect Leader Nie, but this time they are smiling,

"Then what we want is: if we are in trouble, can Sect Leader Nie and his sect would rush to our side and help us?"

"Asking for alliance?"

"Maybe more than that? Like, alliance is just truce, if I going to say it then... I want that Nie Sect would become close friend with our Zhuque sect!"

Sect Leader Nie, his two sons and his disciples that are present on that room were all dumbfounded, staring at Wei Ying with their jaws drop.

The moment of silence was cut off when Sect Leader Nie burst into laugh. All members of Nie Sect turn to him and questioning his sanity. Hilarious, is the only word that enters Sect Leader Nie's head.

"Hahhahh... you kids are something!!! Alright, but it is working on other way too!"

"Of course!"

"Sect Leader Zhu you have excellent disciples."

Cangse Sanren smiles, so is Tiao Reinshun, Cong Liu and Tiao Liujuan.

Sect Leader Nie was about to say more words when he caught his sons still dumbfounded at Wei Ying. "What it is A-Sang, A-Jue?"

"Well... it just that... Young Master Wei is really close to his sect leader that she is so willing to hear him and agree with, going so far as to giving him merit."

"You're right, if it is another sect, all credits belong to sect leader and they would never listen to the youngster, either it is their sons." Tiao Liujuan spokes, "Other people tends to think that kids don't know anything and has no right to speak up, even they are speaking the truth."

"Talking about Sect Leader Yao?"

"There are many adults like that, but yea he is the perfect example of fail parenting." Sect Leader Nie nodded; he couldn't agree more.

"Oh, A-Jue, A-Sang, Young Master Wei is Sect Leader Zhu's only son."

The Nie brothers whip their heads to Wei Ying with wide eyes.

"Bro Ying, you introduced yourself as 'Humble disciple' again, aren't you?"

Wei Ying only grins.

Cangse Sanren, "That might be the case, but it isn't the reason why we are giving them merits and listening to them, it is like I have said earlier: Children sometimes could give sparkling ideas."
