"So again we learn you were in danger without telling anyone. You turned to using a ward from Jin Guangyao's books rather than ask for our help? That's not bravery, that's stupidity. That's like when you ran out to fight those puppets in the Burial Mounds after I offered you Zidian and you refused to take it!" Wanyin scolds, slamming his fist against the arm of his chair.
Jin Ling jumps to his feet. "What if something had happened and those puppets had gotten through our rank and reached you? What would you have used?"
"I was out of spiritual energy, you fool! I couldn't have used it anyway!" Wanyin shoots back, rising as well. "Stop trying to protect your elders! We don't need it. We need you to live!"
