Indeed, once the last syllable fell, Elder Er was immediately enraged. He scoffed coldly, "Rou'er, you don't have to cover up for that idiot. She has obviously lost her nerve and decided to give up on the old Master! What a loss for the Master who had once loved her so much and this is how she repays him!"
Naturally, Murong Yan's early return was due to the Herb of Anxiety.
Even after changing her clothes, her body remained tainted with the smell of the herb. So no matter where she went, she would attract a herd of spiritual beasts. She had no choice but to return home early.
"Please don't be angry, Elder Er, Yan'er didn't do it on purpose. Besides, it's not like she had come back empty-handed. At least she came back with two beggars, one who's an adult and one who's a child."
