Under the shade of a tree outside the tent, She Xiyu was waiting with a group of She Family disciples. A few of the younger Cultivators started complaining in hushed voices:
"That Fang Qingyuan is just a Mid-stage Cultivator at the Fifth-Layer Qi Refining, yet he's making a whole group of us wait. The Patriarch is a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator! This is just too..."
Before he could finish, She Xiyu, who was at the front, suddenly whirled around. Anger flashed across his face, and the disciple immediately swallowed the rest of his words.
"What are you talking about? Is a distinguished disciple of the Beast Taming Sect someone you can gossip about behind his back? You should know how instrumental Fang Qingyuan was in getting us back from the front lines! If he hadn't pulled the strings for us, we would've died sooner or later in that mud pit at Celestial Attraction Mountain."
