Orion\'s expression shifted subtly as his gaze fell upon the disciples from the Blazing Sun Sect. His face also grew serious.

It was hinted that there was a deeper story that lay beneath the surface. There was a history, a personal connection that he held with the sect, one that wasn\'t filled with admiration or respect.

While the customers around them looked upon the Blazing Sun Sect disciples with admiration, Orion\'s reaction was different. His eyes, filled with a mix of wariness and caution, assessed the group with a discerning gaze.

Memories of past encounters and conflicts flickered in his mind, reminding him of the discord that had once existed between himself and the sect.

The bustling teahouse momentarily hushed as one of the disciples from the Blazing Sun Sect raised his voice. It directly surprised everyone there.

He was calling out to the attendant with a demanding tone. "Attendant, we want to order something!" his voice echoed through the air, drawing the attention of both the teahouse staff and the customers.

The atmosphere in the teahouse subtly shifted. Some customers glanced at each other with raised eyebrows, sensing the entitled demeanor of the sect\'s disciples.

Orion\'s jaw tightened slightly as he observed their behavior. It was a stark reminder of the arrogance and entitlement that had fueled his past conflicts with the sect.

Orion had witnessed firsthand how the disciples of the Blazing Sun Sect often wielded their power and status with little regard for others. Their actions exemplified a lack of humility and compassion. 

As the attendant hurried over to the table where the disciples sat, a faint flicker of annoyance crossed Orion\'s face. He had hoped for a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere in the teahouse, a respite from the tensions of their journey.

But The intrusion of the Blazing Sun Sect disciples had disrupted that tranquility, stirring up unresolved emotions within him. Lily began to see that Orion was disturbed by this.

Lily, attuned to her brother\'s subtle shift in mood, placed a comforting hand on his arm. She could sense the mixed feelings that swirled within him, the complex history that shaped his perception of the sect.

With a gentle squeeze, she silently reassured him that they would navigate this situation together. "Calm down, brother," Lily said, calming Orion down. Orion could only nod as Lily told him.

The attendant approached the table with a composed demeanor, bowing respectfully to the disciples. "Apologies for the wait. How may I assist you?" she inquired, her voice maintaining a professional tone despite the undercurrent of tension.

The disciple who had called out earlier leaned back in his chair, a smug smile playing on his lips. "Bring us your finest selection of tea. And make it quick," he commanded, his tone dripping with entitlement.

Orion\'s jaw clenched slightly at the arrogant display, but he maintained his composure. He knew that responding to provocation with anger would only escalate the situation.

Instead, he focused on finding a peaceful resolution and redirecting his energy toward the purpose of their visit to Scaleforge town.

With a calm demeanor, the attendant acknowledged the disciple\'s request. "Certainly, esteemed guests. I will bring you a variety of our finest teas for your enjoyment," she replied, her voice unwavering despite the implicit challenge in the air.

Orion\'s gaze shifted from the disciples to Lily, silently communicating his desire to shift their focus back to their own journey. He knew that dwelling on past conflicts would only distract them from their current purpose.

Taking a deep breath, he let go of the lingering tension and reminded himself of the goal they had set out to accomplish - finding a suitable beast for Lily\'s contract.

Lily, understanding her brother\'s unspoken message, returned his gaze with a determined look in her eyes. Together, they silently agreed to let go of the negative energy in the teahouse and refocus their attention on the possibilities that lay ahead. 

As the attendant prepared the teas for the disciples, her graceful movements and attentive demeanor caught Orion\'s attention.

He admired her ability to maintain composure in the face of challenging circumstances. It served as a reminder to him that one\'s character and conduct were essential in the pursuit of cultivation.

The aroma of freshly brewed tea permeated the air as the attendant carefully arranged the cups on a tray. Each cup held a unique blend, curated to offer a harmonious balance of flavors. With a steady hand, she carried the tray toward the disciples\' table.

The disciples watched with anticipation as the attendant placed the tray before them, presenting the assortment of teas with a polite bow. Her professional demeanor remained intact, unaffected by the disciples\' earlier display of arrogance.

"Here are our finest teas for your enjoyment," she said, her voice carrying a subtle note of respect. "Please take your time to savor each blend and let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with."

Orion observed the interaction with a renewed sense of curiosity. Despite his reservations towards the Blazing Sun Sect, he appreciated the attentiveness and dedication displayed by the teahouse staff.

As the disciples took their first sips, their expressions seemed to change. Orion\'s curiosity heightened as he noticed a furrow in their brows and an air of dissatisfaction lingering around them.

Their eyes met, and the leader of the group, a young-looking man with a fierce face, spoke up. "Why does this tea lack any trace of Qi?" he questioned, his voice laced with disappointment.

The attendant\'s countenance remained composed, her gaze unwavering. "Our teas are crafted to highlight the pure flavors of the leaves, allowing the natural essence to shine through."

She then calmly explained. "While they may not possess a significant Qi presence, they are cherished for their exquisite taste and the tranquility they bring to the spirit."

The disciples exchanged incredulous glances, their discontent growing evident. "How can we appreciate such teas when we seek the nourishment of Qi in our cultivation?" another disciple challenged, his voice filled with frustration.

Orion, ever the observant one, contemplated their reaction. He understood the disciples\' perspective. In their pursuit of cultivation, Qi played a vital role, and they sought its enhancement in every aspect of their lives.

However, he also recognized the value of appreciating the subtleties of the tea\'s flavors. It reminded him of the delicate balance between external power and inner harmony that he sought to achieve in his own cultivation journey.

The disciples\' intentions became clear as they attempted to disrupt the tranquil atmosphere of the teahouse. Orion, although not a hero, refused to tolerate such behavior in his presence.

He valued peace and order, and their disruptive actions irked him. While he might not save everyone, he was determined to maintain a sense of harmony in his surroundings.
