That's all!

Do you know the burden you carry?

"What burden?"

Cen Xi asked the question knowingly. If he were to mention that ridiculous prophecy, she would leave immediately. No matter how capable the old man was, she would not become his disciple.

It was just something those mediocre people made up for her, why should she take responsibility? That's a really weird question!

"Never mind, we'll talk about that later. I was just asking casually. Come on! Let's serve tea!"

Seeing her expression, the old man stopped talking and didn't ask any more questions.

"Are you truly sincere in accepting me as your disciple?"

Cen Xi was very unhappy that he changed the subject so quickly; she had a feeling that she was about to be used by the old man.

"Of course! I'll be your master from now on, so you should address me respectfully as 'Master.' You can't be so disrespectful."

The old man said, twirling his beard.

"If you promise me you won't interfere in my affairs anymore, I'll become your disciple; otherwise, I won't."

Cen Xi felt she should make her point clear. If he were to use his position as her master to force her to do things she didn't want to do, then she would rather not become his disciple.

"You silly girl..."

"Alright! I promise you, no matter what, I won't interfere with you. You can do whatever you want from now on, and I won't make things difficult for you."

The old man suddenly smiled, understanding her meaning; it seemed she really disliked that prophecy.

But sometimes that's just how fate is; no matter how much you try to avoid it, there are some things you still have to face.

If you don't face it, someone will always force you to.

"Alright! You've become a grandmaster, so don't let this get you humiliated at the last minute."
