Chapter 1664: The Daughter is a Love-Brain
Xie Wanyi did not leave the other party any face.
He looked the West Hall Master up and down, and said with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes, "I believe we are of equal rank."
The West Hall Master's eyes widened immediately, his nostrils flaring: "What kind of bullshit is that? I'm so much older than you, and you're the same rank as me!?"
"Why not? Wuyou Hall is not a place that operates by seniority. In terms of ability, I am on par with the West Hall Master."
"You..."
"Ah, I forgot, the West Hall Master hasn't taken on a mission in many years."
Xie Wanyi's implication was that the West Hall Master was not even as good as him.
The West Hall Master had always been flattered by others and could not endure such humiliation.
He slammed the table and roared righteously: "An Organization must have a leader to preside over the big picture! If everyone just goes out to run missions, wouldn't that just be a scattered mess!"
"That would still be for the Hall Master to preside over the big picture. The West Hall Master saying such things now... are you preparing to overstep your authority?"
Xie Wanyi's expression suddenly changed, and his gaze became sharp.
Under his suppression, the West Hall Master, who had originally come to find fault, instead fell into a disadvantageous position.
Realizing something was wrong, the West Hall Master stopped arguing.
He waved his hand and concluded with an icy tone:
"I will not engage in a war of words with you. Now I ask you, the Hall Master is acting arbitrarily and wants to transform the Organization; is it you who is fanning the flames behind it!"
Actually, there was no need to ask; this matter definitely had something to do with Xie Wanyi!
But for the West Hall Master to stir up trouble today, he needed a suitable opportunity.
As for this opportunity...
It had to be Xie Wanyi opening his mouth to admit that he was attempting to split Wuyou Hall!
And how could Xie Wanyi not know the West Hall Master's scheme?
Knowing full well that the man had come for him, Xie Wanyi was not panicked.
He just smiled faintly: "Everyone has different pursuits. The Hall Master has experienced much, and if he wants to wash his identity clean and do legitimate business, what is wrong with that?"
"Hmph, a pipe dream. The origin is not legitimate, so can it ever be washed clean!"
"Why not? It depends on human effort."
"But I don't agree!"
Xie Wanyi tilted his head slightly, not taking the man seriously at all: "So what if you don't agree? The one who makes the decisions is the Hall Master."
The West Hall Master certainly knew that!
But the moment he thought about it, he became furious!
The West Hall Master couldn't help but clench his fists, his breathing rapid: "This Wuyou Hall, half of this empire was built by me, why should I listen to you people!"
"Not convinced? Then you have to go tell the Hall Master. I'm just a small fry; there's nothing to say to me."
Hmph, what kind of small fry is this tough?
Back then, he should have taken advantage of Xie Wanyi being young and killed him!
To nip the trouble in the bud!
But acting now... it wasn't too late!
The West Hall Master darkened his gaze, his tone sinister: "The Hall Master is in poor health; I don't want to anger him. But I can clear away the petty people around him!"
The West Hall Master made a gesture, and then many people flooded in through the door!
And every one of them was fierce and menacing, holding weapons in their hands!
It seemed the West Hall Master was not planning to leave anyone alive today!
Xie Wanyi narrowed his eyes, preparing to find a breakthrough point amidst the encirclement.
And just at this tense moment, someone ran over in a panic.
Without a word, she blocked the way in front of Xie Wanyi.
She then glared at the West Hall Master: "Father, what are you doing to Wanyi!?"
The woman who appeared at this moment had a seductive figure and was tall, with long red curly hair like fire.
Looking at the beauty's eyes...
It was as if they were about to spit fire!
And this woman who was about to spit fire was none other than the West Hall Master's daughter, Xu Nianxin.
The West Hall Master did not expect his daughter to appear suddenly, and his heart skipped a beat.
Afterwards, he suppressed his temper and coaxed his daughter: "Nianxin, come here!"
"I'm not coming over, unless you withdraw everyone!"
Xu Nianxin had heard the rumors and had come specifically to protect Xie Wanyi.
Now it seemed, it was a good thing she had arrived in time!
Don't look at the West Hall Master as ruthless and vicious; he doted on his daughter very much.
Fearing that his subordinates might accidentally hurt his precious daughter, he made a gesture for everyone to put down their weapons.
Afterwards, he feigned kindness and said to Xu Nianxin: "Come over now!"
Xu Nianxin still didn't go over; instead, she clung to Xie Wanyi's arm and said affectionately: "Brother Wanyi, your wounds haven't healed yet, hurry and go lie down, don't run around."
Xie Wanyi's nose was filled with a cloying, fragrant scent.
This made him frown.
Afterwards, he pushed Xu Nianxin's hand away and kept his distance from her: "I am fine, thank you for your concern."
Xie Wanyi's attitude was very clear.
He wanted to keep his distance from Xu Nianxin.
But how could Xu Nianxin give up so easily?
She approached Xie Wanyi again, her voice anxious: "The punishments of the Discipline Hall are no joke! You hurry and lie down; whatever you want to do, I will do it for you!"
Watching helplessly as her precious daughter fussed over a man...
And that man happened to be her own arch-nemesis...
West Hall Master was truly fuming inside!
In order to make her daughter wake up, West Hall Master opened his mouth and said: "He wants to make Wuyou Hall abandon darkness for light; are you going to help him with that too!"
"I'll help, as long as it's a decision made by Brother Wanyi, I support it!"
Xu Nianxin's words left West Hall Master in disbelief.
To make his love-struck daughter wake up, he shouted: "Silly girl, do you know what this means? It's no different from being skinned and having your marrow extracted!"
West Hall Master was not fear-mongering.
Wuyou Hall had been operating for so many years, its influence deeply rooted and intertwined.
Now, he was to pull out his own influence by the roots?
That would be as good as losing half his life, if not dying!
However, Xu Nianxin did not care about any of this.
She only said with concern: "Dad, don't shout so loudly; Brother Wanyi does things with his own sense of propriety."
"Ha, he's just a greenhorn, what sense of propriety does he have! He doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth; he clearly wants to drag others down to be buried with him!"
"Dad, I won't allow you to look down on Brother Wanyi!"
Seeing West Hall Master becoming increasingly excessive in his speech, Xu Nianxin actually shouted at him!
And his daughter's roar made West Hall Master so angry that smoke was practically coming out of the top of his head!
Xie Wanyi had also had enough of this noisy father and daughter.
With an impatient look on his face, he said: "The Hall Master intends to secede from Wuyou Hall; the previous resources, as well as the brothers who wish to stay, will all belong to West Hall Master. You could say that West Hall Master will be the master of the new Wuyou Hall. How about it, can you get your wish now?"
Get his wish?
Get his ass!
What West Hall Master wanted was the entire Wuyou Hall!
Not a Wuyou Hall that had fallen apart!
As for Xie Wanyi...
West Hall Master sneered: "The Hall Master is senile, and you don't know your own limits. I'll just wait and see how you both end up smashed to pieces!"
After speaking, West Hall Master prepared to leave.
But remembering his daughter was still there, he darkened his expression and called out: "Nianxin, let's go!"
Xu Nianxin, however, acted as if she hadn't heard, looking up and staring straight at Xie Wanyi, opening her mouth to confess:
"No matter what happens, I will stand on Brother Wanyi's side. Brother Wanyi... have you seen my heart?"
"I apologize, our statuses are different, and you shouldn't make things difficult for your father. Please leave."
"Brother Wanyi..."
Jiang Baobao looked at the screen, her heart sinking to the bottom of a valley.
