I never wanted to represent the Truth Hall at Master Lan Ye's birthday banquet; it was these people who strongly recommended that I go.
Now that something has happened, I am the one who has to bear all the blame.
How is that fair?
Master Lan Ye is exceptionally skilled but very greedy.
Among the Grandmaster Creators that He Wen knew, he was one of the few who recruited a large number of assistants.
Master Lan Ye's public recruitment of assistants must have attracted countless hidden forces and powerful families hoping to send their descendants to be taught by him.
Master Lan Ye doesn't refuse anyone, but becoming his assistant requires giving him a substantial gift.
Rather than calling them gifts, it's more accurate to call it a bribe!
There is still a significant difference between a Grandmaster Creator's assistants and disciples.
The reason He Wen had a conflict at Master Lan Ye's banquet was that one of his assistants tried to take advantage of her.
