She had always treated Huo Bingchen the same way she treated the guardians and every other disciple and she also loved him like every other disciple in the sect, the only reason why she had threatened to kill was because of the anger she felt at that moment and Bingchen knew this, she would never had threatened to kill him if it wasn't for the first elder plot, apart from being taught by the third elder and the first elder, his whip skills and horse riding skills were taught by the sect leader wife so he didn't have any hard feelings towards her when he heard her threatening to kill him.

"I will try my best to fulfil my duty" he said as he bowed his head with both hands slightly raised forward, he knew that as long as her daughter has returned safely all her hard feelings towards him as naturally disappeared, the first elder was also surprised at her order. Normally guardians are supposed to die if their masters die but the twins and Huo Qiang were only in charge of protecting Huo Ying and the sect leader but they had never chosen a suicidal guardian after the sect leader came into power, he was already scared when she said that she was going to make Huo Bingchen a guardian because he was expecting her to make him a suicidal guardian, when he heard her order he was happy because being a managerial guardian meant that you have authority over all the disciples in the sect including the elite disciples. The first elder smiled with satisfaction and thanked her for increasing his status, she was expecting him to be thankful, her main purpose for increasing Huo Bingchen status in the sect was to reduce the first elder's prejudice towards Huo Ying and that as precisely the result she achieved.​​

"Since Huo Ying has returned safely and al the necessary announcement has been made, the meeting is over" The sect leader said, he climbed down the stairs which lead to the high seats, as he came closer to the disciples they owed their heads until he left the hall, after he left the hall everyone has no reason to remain behind so they left the hall.

----------------------

Huo Ying entered into the sect leader room and closed the door behind her, she knew that her mother and father would surely want to see her privately but she wasn't sure if it was appropriate for her to tell them exactly what happened.

"Huo ying sit down" the sect leader said while pointing to the chair opposite him, his wife was also seated right next to him. Huo Ying sat down and braced herself for their questions. The both of them looked at he with doubts written on their face but they were waiting for the other person to speak, Huo Yin realized that they were hesitating so she decided to break the silence.

"father, mother, ask any question you would like to ask if you both keep waiting for the other person to speak, we are going to spend the whole day sitting like this"

"Huo Ying are you sure that was what happened in the beast dungeon" the sect leader asked with a little bit of hesitation in his voice, she smiled at her fathers question and then said "actually that was not what happened but it is similar to the truth, you remember when I and Huo Lan went missing when were five years old" she said and waited for their reply.

"of course, we do, back then we almost turned the sect upside while searching for the both of you, what does this have to do with the beast dungeon" her mother asked with curiosity clearly written on her face.

" what happened back then was that I followed Huo Loan to the beast dungeon without her knowing but when I got there I saw her playing with the beast, after a while the beast noticed my presence so Huo Lan found me and we stayed with the beast during that time before returning home, so I was hoping the beast to remember me and he did so he let us stay in the dungeon without attacking us" She said, she didn't want to tell her parents about the beast attacking them and the bell but her parents did believe what she had said since it sounded plausible.

"Why didn't you tell us that was where you went back then" her father asked

"we thought you were going to scold us for leaving the sect and going to the dungeon so we decided to lie that we got lost" Huo Yin said with a hint of guilt in her tone.

"anyway, I am just glad that you came back safely" her mother said and sighed.

"Luckily you came back, if you didn't your other would have turned the sect upside down, I persuaded her all night yesterday and that was the best result that I could get as you saw in the hall" her father said jokingly.

"I promise you both that I wouldn't do anything that would bring trouble to the sect or put you both in a difficult situation"

--------------------

"are you sure that she entered into the dungeon" the first elder asked Huo Bingchen, Bingchen didn't want to dwell longer on the issue so he decided to lie to his grandfather, " grandfather, I am sure that she entered into the dungeon, she had the scale from the dragon when she came out and the guardians were slightly wounded but they didn't make it obvious just now because they didn't want the sect leader's wife to find out, the First elder who had been pacing around the room at sat on a chair and told Bingchen to also take his seat.

"The only way to confirm if she truly entered is if she had the smell of the beast breath on her but I didn't want to bring it up because of the situation at that time" the first elder said while stroking his beards, Huo Bingchen thought about it then he remembered that when they came out there was a weird smell on Huo Ying and the guardian, the smell was neither nice or bad.

If what grandfather said is correct that means that Huo ying did enter the dungeon...

But did the beast really let her go because they didn't attack him…. what of the noise they heard in the mountain last night…?

These thoughts ran through his head but he didn't have an answer to any of them.

"grandfather, if what you said is true then I did smell something strange when they came out, the smell was neither bad nor good but it wasn't pleasing to the nose, is that the smell you are talking about" Bingchen said

"you are right, that is the smell of the dragon breath, then that means she really survived staying in the dungeon but how did that happen, no one has ever entered the dungeon because of the beast inside is really cruel and large but they actually survived seems like the young mistress is more skillful than I thought" he said while stroking his beards again.

"Grandfather, she was worried that the sect leader wife would find trouble with you so she made us rush back to the sect even I had forgotten about her temperament"

"do you think she rushed back because of me she just didn't want the sect to be in disarray before she comes back that was why she rushed back so don't be fooled by her actions" he replied, in his heart he didn't think that way, he had already forgotten about the humiliation that the sect leader wife made him suffer after she made Huo Bingchen a managerial guardian but now that Huo Ying rushed back to the sect to prevent her mother from harming him, his heart was already melting slowly and Bingchen knew this too so he didn't bother to discuss it further.

"I will keep that in mind, there will be more work for me to do since I have been made a managerial guardian and I also have to increase my training so I wont be able to visit you all the time, I want to ask for your understanding beforehand" Huo Bingchen said

"Don't worry about me just make sure that you are not behind Huo Ying" the first elder said

"I will take my leave now" Huo Bingchen said and bowed, he then left the room, after he left the first elder continued to think about his future plans for Huo Bingchen
