"Master, has something happened?"
Xu Taiping, with a guilty conscience, cautiously asked upon seeing Danyang Zi's demeanor.
With a smile that was not quite a smile, Danyang Zi said, "Nothing much. I am just sitting here, watching to see who will come out on top."
However, the more nonchalant he acted, the more uneasy Xu Taiping felt in his heart. Sensing this, Danyang Zi then said, "Since you are not interested in managing the formation here, why not go and call little nine over?"
Startled by the prospect of taking over the Star Picking Formation, Xu Taiping instinctively replied, "When this disciple went to deliver the wooden token, junior brother nine was in the middle of seclusion..."
"When I'm in seclusion, little nine dares to come to my retreat. What's the matter, you don't dare to when little nine is in seclusion? Taiping, how come your courage is now less than little nine's?"
"This disciple wouldn't dare!"
