Chapter 3202 — Mother Tang Is Beaten

"Indeed, Brother Tang. From now on, you and I may address each other as brothers," Elder Chen said likewise.
"This... the two elders are far too kind. What virtue or ability does Tang Yuqi possess to stand on equal footing with the elders of the Overseas Cultivator Association? Besides, I have already submitted my resignation and am about to leave the Cultivator's Chamber of Commerce. I truly cannot accept the title of 'brother.' Just call me Little Tang, or Yuqi," Tang Yuqi said earnestly.
But what Tang Yuqi had not expected was that his words did not please the two elders at all—instead, their expressions turned grim!
"Brother Tang, that is where you are mistaken. You are a Heaven-rank expert now, a top-tier presence within the Overseas Cultivator Association!" Elder Chen said. "If you were an ordinary cultivator, leaving would be leaving. But anyone above Heaven-rank absolutely may not leave! This is the answer our council gave after consulting the Association's president and vice presidents! Your departure from the Cultivator's Chamber of Commerce is absolutely out of the question!"
"This..." Tang Yuqi was immediately put in a difficult position. "I'm going to settle down here now. I certainly can't handle the Overseas Cultivator Association's affairs anymore. Even if I didn't want to leave, there'd be no way for me to manage it. Couldn't we make some accommodation here?"
"That is impossible!" Elder Wang spoke up as well. "Old Chen and I came here for the sole purpose of taking you back. Do not forget—the strength you possess today came from the elixirs our Overseas Cultivator Association gave you to raise it. Without our cultivation resources, could you be a Heaven-rank expert now? Do not forget your roots!"
"This..." Tang Yuqi hesitated. He was not the sort to repay kindness with ingratitude, and he knew that refusing at this point would not look good. But he had truly decided to stay here, and there was genuinely no way for him to handle the Overseas Cultivator Association's affairs any longer.
"Isn't it just a few cultivation elixirs and resources from your Overseas Cultivator Association? I'll return them to you, so stop making things difficult for my nephew!" At that moment, Mother Tang, hearing the conversation from outside the door, pushed it open and walked in.
Mother Tang was a Profound-rank expert herself now, so her hearing was naturally beyond ordinary compare. She had heard every word of the conversation inside clearly from beyond the door, and hearing the two elders of the Overseas Cultivator Association be so unreasonable, she grew angry and demanded outright.
"And who might you be? You'll return them? Do you know how many elixirs we gave him over the years? Spirit-Gathering Pills, Lesser Qi-Gathering Elixirs, Qi-Gathering Elixirs—all extremely precious elixirs. What would a Profound-rank cultivator like you know about such things?" It was no wonder Elder Chen looked down on Mother Tang. A Profound-rank expert was a lowly existence in their eyes, and they assumed she had no idea how important those elixirs were!
