Chapter 78

When the elderly headmaster exited the room, he immediately approached You Danling with determined strides.

His weathered hands, which had experienced better days, firmly gripped the young girl's shoulders.

"You, Danling, you've truly given this old man the fright of his life this time!"

Despite his stern voice, his underlying concern couldn't be concealed.

"I'm alright, Headmaster."

"Where on earth did you find these untamed four geese?"

The headmaster glared at Jin Liwei, Lan Jianhong, and Li Jiayi, his white beard twitching.

"The master cultivators are not geese, Headmaster!"

"They trespassed on the school grounds—"

"I invited them in."

"They tied me up!"

"..."

You Danling couldn't defend the master cultivators with that statement.

However, she persisted, "Headmaster, they mean no harm. I cannot say for certain if they were genuine about taking me in, but I know they will teach me."
