Crazy! Are You Really A Beast Tamer?

Chapter 997: Chapter 475: Concerns of the Truth Hall!
 

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.

While socializing, he not only held on to her hand but also wrapped his arm around her waist, his hand moving downwards.

This made He Wen feel extremely humiliated.

She had never experienced anything like this before.

As the archangel of the Truth Hall, her life was already devoted to her faith.

Being taken advantage of in such a frivolous way not only insulted He Wen’s dignity but also desecrated her loyalty to her faith!

A tainted body does not deserve to worship the one who loves all beings in the world.

He Wen became furious on the spot.

Although she did not summon her Guardian Beast, she threw a punch with her left fist, ablaze with Holy Flame, at the assistant.

That punch nearly killed Master Lan Ye’s assistant.

Because this incident happened at the birthday banquet, her actions dishonored Master Lan Ye’s reputation.

This made Master Lan Ye stand up for his assistant.

Otherwise, Master Lan Ye would not normally have bothered with the matter, given his usual attitude towards assistants.

The Light Attribute Spiritual Materials provided annually by the Truth Hall to Master Lan Ye had never failed to generate revenue for him.

But having been publicly humiliated at the banquet, Master Lan Ye had to make a statement.

At the moment Master Lan Ye grew angry, He Wen realized she had indeed been impulsive.

But that doesn’t mean her colleagues could blame their broken relationship with Master Lan Ye entirely on her when she returned to the Truth Hall.

Anyone in the same situation would have been unable to endure it.

“How do I conduct myself?”

“I never wanted to do this in the first place, you insisted that I represent the Truth Hall to congratulate Master Lan Ye on his longevity!”

“Otherwise, this mess would never have happened!”

“You have the time to blame me now, but why did you all say you were too busy to attend Master Lan Ye’s banquet before?”

“The damage has been done, are you expecting me to go and grovel to Master Lan Ye for forgiveness!?”

“If we lose Master Lan Ye, we can simply start looking for other Grandmaster Creator alliances.”

“We have resources to offer; other Grandmaster Creators will surely be willing to cooperate with us!”

With her anger unabated, He Wen simply threw their accusations back at them.

Say I’m at fault? Then I might as well put all the blame back on you!

The colleagues were so angry because the severing of ties with Master Lan Ye had affected others’ interests.

They all knew just how horrible things were on Master Lan Ye’s side.

Otherwise, who would give up an opportunity to forge connections with a Grandmaster Creator at a birthday banquet?

One of the elders, his long beard hanging down to his chest, shouted angrily,

“He Wen, you make it sound so simple!”

“Where will our Truth Hall find another Grandmaster Creator to forge connections with?”

“Moreover, gaining a new Grandmaster Creator’s favor will cost us!”

“We’ve already wasted resources initially provided to Master Lan Ye, you surely don’t think you bear no responsibility at all?”

“From now on, half of the Clean Radiant Light produced by the Sacred Truth Hall must be given to you, and the other half shall be distributed to others as compensation.”

“Not until we find another Grandmaster Creator to offset your indiscretion will we return the other half of the Clean Radiant Light to you!”

The Sacred Truth Hall is a sanctuary managed by the Truth Hall, and its Clean Radiant Light has a powerful nurturing and enhancing effect on any Angel Species Beast.

The archangels of the Truth Hall have always equally shared the Clean Radiant Light produced by the Sacred Truth Hall.

One can say that the Clean Radiant Light is crucial for the improvement of the archangels’ strengths.

This elder’s suggestion essentially cut off He Wen’s prospects.

Establishing a relationship with a Grandmaster Creator and building a stable trading channel is extremely difficult.

He Wen did not have such a channel, nor the capability to establish one.

If she were to submit now, it was very likely that her rate of gaining strength would be much slower than her colleagues for decades to come.

By the time a new Grandmaster Creator was found, she would have fallen far behind her peers.

She was definitely not going to agree to something that jeopardized her future.

“Zheng Hui, what gives you the right to decree that I lose half of my share of the Clean Radiant Light just by uttering a few words?”

“I don’t agree with your decision!”

“If you insist on reducing my share of the Clean Radiant Light, then you might as well strip me of my archangel position!”

“I will take my lineage and leave the Truth Hall completely.”

“If this is how the Truth Hall treats me, my family need not contribute any further to it.”
