"No wonder they're out to get me."
His scalp tingled.
Before, he had no concept of how much trouble his senior sister and the master he had never met might have stirred outside. Now, he understood.
The key is that you can't really blame them. Both the master and the senior sister operated classically, centered around themselves. Simply put:
Wherever I go, I decide. What others say doesn't matter. I don't need you to think I'm right; as long as I think I'm right, I'll do it.
This isn't selfishness but rather a self-contained worldview and value system. Take Master Liu Jian, for example. After observing the bizarre ways in which Xuan Xiaozi was cultivating, he concocted the so-called "Longevity Technique" and didn't hesitate to cut him down.
To know that the master had a task from the Sect Master, he personally ventured to the Northwest. Yet, he still tossed aside the sect's mission and went off to kill.
Yes, that's his personality.
