"You do have some insight," Ye Xuan said with a smile that was not quite a smile as he glanced at Qi Xiaobo.
Qi Xiaobo forced a bitter smile and said, "Elder, let's talk this out nicely."
Ye Xuan smiled lightly, "I did speak nicely. It's just that the rules of your Spiritual Boat Association are so extensive that I was compelled to explain my own rules."
"It is my lack of discipline that has made us a laughing stock before you, Elder," said Qi Xiaobo with respect.
"Then let me ask you, are the rules of your Spiritual Boat Association greater, or are mine?" Ye Xuan asked nonchalantly, his hands in his pockets.
At those words, Qi Xiaobo felt as if he had entered an exceedingly dangerous situation. Sweat dripped down his entire body, and he didn't dare hesitate for even a moment. Hurriedly he said, "Of course, Elder's rules are greater. The rules of my Spiritual Boat Association only apply to certain people; a revered figure like yourself is naturally not bound by them."
