~At the Tài Clan: Main Hall~

The gang member (from chapter 9) kneeled infront of his Master's behind, 5 meters apart as to maintain distance and show respect to his Master.

GM: "Master, I came to report."

The gang member maintained a low voice and stayed calm. His Master not turning while he's meditating on the cushioned floor infront of the corrupted floating weapon.

???: "What is it?"

GM: "It's Noūmo... He's betrayed you and-"

???: "I know."

GM: "Did he come here already and disrupted your peace with his presence?"

???: "I sent men to end him immediately. Anything else?"

GM: "Unfortunately, Master... Yes. There is more."

??? (annoyed/serious): "Speak."

GM: "Master. There's a menace running around trying to steal your chosen bride. A man I heard of, but I didn't quite believe it. When I saw him, I came here to you and report it."

???: "So you're telling me *standing up* that knowing he's a menace, *turns around* you didn't kill him there?"

GM (scared): "C-childe. I'm sorry, I-I just thought that-"

Tài Yǎzhù (nearing to GM) (gritted teeth): "You thought that it was best to inform me that there was a menace instead of informing me you got rid of the menace?"

GM (scared): "I-I'm s-so sorry C-childe-"

Tài Yǎzhù (angry): "That's Clan Leader to YOU! Or perhaps my father is around?"

The gang member shook his head.

Tài Yǎzhù: "Am I still a child?"

The gang member shook his head once more.

Tài Yǎzhù (serious): "Then you shall refer to me as your Clan Leader. Am I understood?"

The gang member nodded desperately.

GM: "Yes Master. My sincerest apologies for offending you Master."

Tài Yǎzhù: "You should. Now then, *turns to the sword* since you are already here, tell me now who this menace is."

GM: "Yes Master, he's name is Huamei and-"

Tài Yǎzhù (confused): "Huamei? As in, *turns around* the candy?"

GM: "..."

Tài Yǎzhù: "The dried plum candy? *GM nodded* Are you considering me as a fool?"

GM: "Never Master! You are never a fool! I promise you! I've heard people calling him Huamei with my own ears."
