Chapter 803
The Oppressed
Good morning, Master Yu, Xuan Sitong conveyed in a different tone upon bumping into Mu Yu on her way out of her mothers room the next morning.
Is your mother holding up?New novel chapters are published at novelhall.com
She is thanks to your spirit replenishment pills. Thank you for asking.
Mu Yu just smiled and sat down on the stone seat, fixing his gaze on a weeping willow in bloom. He continued brooding over the meaning of life as he watched a fly struggle to break free of the spider web on the tree.
Why do you keep staring at my brother? Xiaoshuai rubbed his eyes as he meandered out of the room.
Xuan Sitong, who also witnessed Mu Yu snap One-Eyed Snakes neck yesterday, covered her flush cheeks, denying, I-I wasnt staring.
You want to know what sort of person I am? Mu Yu voiced, reading Xuan Sitongs thoughts.
Although Im not sure what happened in the past, all I want to say is that One-Eyed Snake deserved to die for the injustices he had done unto others and the bullying he enacted on other hunters.
Mm, Mu Yu dismissively replied, believing Xuan Sitong was only trying to make him feel better.
Nothing will change the fact that you saved our lives. For that, we are willing to do anything you ask of us.
Mu Yu swept his gaze around. Wheres Mr. Xuan?
How do you know hes embezzling the funds?
When my father sought Patriarchs support after my mothers injury, Patriarch unintentionally let it slip that we were only paying two thousand in worship funds monthly, so asking for a loan of two million out of the blue was too much. In reality, we paid, at least, eight thousand per month. As such, my father realised First Elder pocketed all but two thousand spirit stones!
Hasnt your father exposed him for embezzlement?
He wanted to, particularly because he wanted to ensure the sect was getting what it need. Sadly, First Elder blackmailed him with the loan, and Father chose to prioritise my mother. People now disparage my father for asking for two million when hes incompetent. As two million is a large sum to us, all elders and Patriarch must approve if Father is to be granted the loan. That was when First Elder demanded the absurd 90% and so forth.
Does your patriarch not care your first elder is doing all this?
Due to Patriarch getting on with old age, he has spent more and more time training in seclusion and less time as an administrator. My father, therefore, has no choice but to swallow the bitter pill. Were sure First Elder is also embezzling the monthly raise. My father would rather be labelled incompetent than do what he believes is wrong.
Irked and flared up over aforementioned elders behaviour, Mu Yu decided to do something about it, or rather, him.
