Yu Zhenghai was prepared to be punished. After all, he had summoned his courage to say what was on his mind. Even if his master had hit him, he would not complain. Based on the years he had spent with his master, he knew very well how unreasonable his master could be. Let alone speaking boldly, his master viewed something as trivial as his disciples' differing opinions and defiance as disrespectful. He had kowtowed out of fear and respect toward his master and also in hopes that master would listen to the words he had to say.
Lu Zhou looked at Yu Zhenghai who was still on the ground. He shook his head and said, "Get up and talk."
"I dare not."
"I've already said what needed to be said. If you want to continue kneeling then be my guest," Lu Zhou said.
Upon hearing Lu Zhou's words, Yu Zhenghai looked up before he rose to his feet.
'He'll only do the exact opposite of what he's told. His stubbornness hasn't changed since he was a child.'
