This Monk Has No Regrets!

The second and fourth daughters, Bai Xiuwan and Bai Xiushu, had average talent but were the most diligent, still meditating and practicing at this hour.

The fifth, Bai Xiuyou, wore a sour expression.

Her talent was the best, and she'd already gone to bed, only to be roused by Bai Peng's summons, sparking her irritation.

She plopped down, grumbling, "Father, this better be about someone dying or a clan being wiped out, or I'm tearing the house apart."

Seeing her temper, Cinian instinctively shuffled away, keeping his distance from the fifth daughter.

The other Shans quickly followed their master's lead.

Only Yun Shen stood there, oblivious and alone.

Bai Xiuyou glanced at him, scoffing, "Why hasn't this big oaf taken the tonsure?"

Cinian cleared his throat. "He's not my disciple."

Bai Xiuyou raised an eyebrow, dismissing Yun Shen with a look. "Father, get on with it."

Bai Xiangyu explained the situation.
