Stalemate

Jiang Zhiyuan instantly felt like she had dropped into an ice hole.

"Mentor?!" She stared at Elder Dan Qing in disbelief as her legs became soft. She couldn't even stand stably. Break the mentor-disciple ties… Then, what should I do in the future?! If this news gets out, how will others look at me? One of the main reasons why I can be where I am today is that I'm a student of Ling Xiao Academy and Elder Dan Qing's favorite top student! If I lose this backer…

"I've already made myself very clear. I can't bear the name of being your mentor. In the future, you should directly have someone else as your mentor." Elder Dan Qing seemed to be unaffected by her reaction and drew the line very clearly. Then, he turned around and planned to rest.

Jiang Zhiyuan hurriedly ran forward and blocked his path. "Mentor, I know that I'm wrong. Please give me another chance!"
