Gao Xue Ting lowered her head to the side and mumbled under her breath, “I already said I’m sorry, what else do you want? That’s why you’re still unable to find a companion after so many centuries. Serves you right to be single until you die!”

“What did you say?” The veins on Qiu Ran’s temples throbbed.

“Nothing,” Gao Xue Ting made a poker face and met Qiu Ran’s raging anger head-on before taking it upon herself to say, “However, this matter was caused by me. If Senior Brother wants to mete out punishment, just punish me alone, as it was not their fault.”

The other Elders nodded their heads in succession after hearing her words.

You Kun added, “That’s right, Senior Brother. This matter was caused by Junior Sister Gao. We are just the victims. If you want to mete out punishment, just punish her alone. Furthermore, you have to make sure it is a severe one. It will not appease the masses if she doesn’t get punished sufficiently.”

Yang Kai responded by staring at him in stunned silence, appearing as though this was the first time that he had met You Kun.

Qiu Run replied with a sneer, “Who else can force you all to drink alcohol?”

Di Rong scratched his face and replied, “Your vision is truly sharp, Senior Brother! That’s precisely it!”

“Nonsense!” Qiu Ran erupted with great anger, “None of you will escape from yesterday’s matter!”

The group sagged like lifeless corpses, with their heads drooping down, disheartened after hearing his words.

“Just state the punishment. What’s with the long-windedness?” Gao Xue Ting shouted back with an extremely impatient look on her face.

“You, you, you… you are utterly devoid of any respect for your Seniors!” Qiu Ran slammed the table yet again. After venting his anger for a while longer, he declared, “Yesterday’s matter is absolutely unacceptable! If our disciples were to know of your actions, how would our temple maintain its dignity in the future? In view of this, this Old Master will punish you all by deducting 3,000 Elder Contribution Points from all of you!”

“What!?”

“Please don’t do it, Senior Brother Qiu… that’s 3,000 Elder Contribution Points! Why not just kill me!”

“Please be merciful, Senior Brother!”

The group of Elders immediately started to shout out, appearing as though they were having their skin peeled off by Qiu Ran. In fact, Chen Qian even proceeded to carve a pitiful stance as she looked at Qiu Ran and cried, “Senior Brother… please don’t be like that…”
