Chapter 588: Recruiting a Disciple

Hearing Lou Yan's words, a smile appeared on Yu Cang's face.

He was not surprised at all that Lou Yan would say such a thing.

In fact, any member of the Hunter Tribe would feel uncomfortable and dissatisfied with the current situation of the Hunter Tribe after living in Yan Country for half a year.

Although they are close neighbors geographically, the Yan Kingdom and the Hunter Tribe seem to exist in two different eras.

However, even if ordinary people feel dissatisfied, that's all. The situation is so bad that it's hard to reverse. In the face of such a country, there is very little an individual can do, and anyone would feel despair.

But Lou Yan would want to do something.

Even though he knew that he was alone and weak, had not awakened the soul energy well, and was not even a soul card master, he was still willing to start with the suffering in front of him, count every bit, save one person at a time, and help one person for a while.

With this thought in mind, it is only a matter of time before I ask the question I just asked.

However, Yu Cang did not speak immediately.

Instead, he shook his head and said, "Even if you smash all the Buddha statues, new ones will still be born, and there will still be people trapped in them. Just like that Na Ye, his child was trapped in the mud, and so was he himself."

Hearing this, Lou Yan's eyes couldn't help but fluctuate, but his determination became even stronger.

He realized this when he persuaded Na Ye to break his mud body just now.

Looking at Na Ye's determined and stubborn eyes, he knew that even if he successfully smashed the clay body today, it would only mean that the roles of Na Ye and his child would be reversed.

The child is suffering, and there is no relief.

Na Ye would not believe what he said at all and would only feel that he had harmed his own child.

He also has his own clay statue in his heart... How can he dig out his heart by smashing it?

And... at the end, Nazhe appeared, and he accused himself of talking nonsense - but he knew clearly that what he said was right!

When Taichu was explaining, Nazhe was also present. He even agreed with Taichu's words. How could he not know!

But Nazhe did not stand on the side of truth.

Did he say those words to comfort Na Ye?

No...he is not such a good person.

It's just that he also wants to use the banner of immortality to protect his own interests...even though he is now a "killing army".

Lou Yan already understood all of this. He knew that in this situation, it was just as they said. Even if everything was destroyed, only the dead would be freed, but the world ultimately belonged to the living.

However, even so.

Lou Yan didn't hesitate at all.

He didn't know what to do yet, but he still spoke firmly:

"Then I will keep smashing it down until I reach the Lingshan Buddhist Kingdom and smash that so-called immortal Dharma body into pieces!"

"good."

Yu Cang nodded.

"However, what you need to do most is to liberate the minds of the hunter people and break the clay statues in their hearts. I am not good at this."

This was done a thousand years ago by Di Chang'an's generation.

Yu Cang could only learn about that period of history from textbooks. He had not experienced it and was indeed not good at it.

Lou Yan immediately said: "But before that, I must have enough strength first!"

"Then you shouldn't ask me to be your disciple. Major General Du, Qiu Zhenguo, or Senior Tai Chu are all better than me."

Lou Yan shook his head repeatedly: "They are not as good as you."

"...We can just talk about this in private."

Yu Cang coughed lightly.

Forget about anything else, but if Taichu hears it, it will be terrible.

He doesn't dare to compare himself with Shen Hua now.

But no matter what, Lou Yan was happy to hear what he said.

"Okay, I can be your teacher."

Hearing this, Lou Yan's face was filled with joy. Without hesitation, he made a gesture to kowtow, but was held back by an invisible force and did not bow.

Wang Zhiwo's figure appeared behind Lou Yan and grabbed Lou Yan's arm.

"There's no need for such formalities. It's already 1011. Just call me teacher."

"Okay, teacher." Lou Yan was very excited.

Yu Cang thought for a moment and said:

"Come to think of it, you have a senior sister and a senior brother... but they are both in Yan Country. I'll let you meet them when there's a chance."

He was referring to Kangnan and Gutu, of course.

I had promised Kang Nan that I would take her into the laboratory after he graduated from high school, so I naturally would not go back on my word.

As for Gu Tu... when he wanted to become his disciple, Yu Cang casually gave him a condition that he must also pass the imperial examination and become the top scorer.

Originally I just wanted to motivate him, but he later understood something. After that, the kid seemed to be injected with chicken blood. He made rapid progress all the way and was now qualified to take first place.

Although it was just said casually, it certainly counts if the other party meets the conditions.

From this perspective, both of them became disciples earlier than Lou Yan and are older than Lou Yan, so it is reasonable for Lou Yan to call them senior brothers and sisters.

Lou Yan was not surprised by this. He nodded repeatedly: "Okay, Master!"

After shouting these two words, Lou Yan suddenly felt more confident.

Now that he thinks about it, most of the words he just said were impulsive - Lingshan is so high, the Buddha's Kingdom is so far away, and Changsheng is so powerful. Why does he feel that by worshipping a sixth-level soul card master like Yu Cang, he will be able to change all this?

I'm afraid... this time when I return to the Great King's Court, Yu Cang may not be able to protect himself...

But he just had a feeling that Yu Cang was definitely reliable.

Was it because he had single-handedly killed Saran without even getting his clothes dirty? But that didn't seem enough.

God knows why he trusts this young man who is not much older than him so much.

Maybe it was because he saw too much stuff related to Yu Cang on the Internet and on TV during the past six months in Yan Country, and was influenced by it... Who knows.

However, the words have been spoken and the relationship has been established, and Lou Yan will definitely not have any intention of going back on his word.

"Let's go back to the tent and take a shower."

"I have Master's Soul Cleansing Card, so I don't need to wash it."

"It's good to regain your energy." Yu Cang had already turned around. "It's better than you being outside, watching those hunters worry."

"Okay, Lou Yan, go wash it."

Lou Yan followed Yu Cang's footsteps, and then asked impatiently:

"Master, when do we start learning? What preparations should I make?"

Yu Cang smiled: "Are you so anxious?"

"It's only a few days until I return to the Great King's Court. I want to at least become a little stronger before I go back."

"No need. Even if you become a Soul Card Master, it will be useless in this amount of time."

When he first awakened the Soul Energy Well, his cultivation level improved very slowly. Now, he will be heading to the Great King's Court in a few days. Even if he is an unparalleled genius, he can't advance more than two levels.

A first-level soul card master is no different from an ordinary person.

"When is your birthday?"

"Me?" Lou Yan was stunned. "It seems... it was the day of chanting scriptures."

"What a coincidence."

Yu Cang is happy.

"Don't be too hasty in awakening the Soul Energy Well. I'll awaken it for you after your birthday."

"Ah, but..." Lou Yan gritted his teeth, "I'm afraid that by then... it will be too late."

"Are you afraid that I won't be able to protect you in the Grand Court?"

"Lou Yan didn't doubt the master, but..."

After hesitating for a moment, Lou Yan still didn't say what he wanted to say.

"rest assured."

Yu Cang raised his head and hands to block the glaring sunlight.

Through the gaps between his fingers, his gaze was looking somewhere unknown.

"I have some ideas about this line of work."

Yu Cang is not alone.

From the moment they entered the Longevity Tent, La and the princess began to analyze the Longevity Tent from the perspective of the Starry Sky.

Jieying's body can be regarded as a "supercomputer". With him around, the analysis speed is extremely fast.

In reality, Kong was moving forward at a fairly fast pace, passing by many hunter villages.

Combined with the information he has collected so far, perhaps they can do a lot on this trip to the Changsheng Tent.

It can be said that he alone is a top team!

"Lou Yan, since I'm your master, I won't let your safety be in jeopardy. Don't worry, after this trip to the Great King's Court, your journey has only just begun."

If he had not been sure that he could protect Lou Yan's safety, he would not have agreed to be his master.

Otherwise, wouldn’t it be very embarrassing if he just became your disciple and was killed by the imperial teacher right after?

Just now, La has analyzed a very crucial piece of information.

In this way, although the situation inside the Changsheng Tent is still a mystery, Yu Cang is already confident enough.

With Tai Hina added to the mix, it was more than enough to save Lou Yan... maybe we could even take this opportunity to do something.

"Let's go back."

…

"What? You accepted Lou Yan as your apprentice?" Qiu Jindong's eyes widened like bells. "Are you...are you serious?"

Yu Cang nodded: "Of course."

"But... you should know him..." Qiu Jindong didn't know how to explain for a moment.

He didn't say it explicitly, but Yu Cang knew what he wanted to say.

In this line of work, Lou Yan is just a chess piece for them.

What they have to do is to squeeze out every bit of value from Lou Yan and achieve their goals in the Changsheng Account as much as possible.

If necessary, killing Lou Yan to anger the national teacher is also part of the plan.

And now... Yu Cang directly accepted Lou Yan as his apprentice?

If it was just a stopgap measure to get Lou Yan's cooperation, it would be fine, but Yu Cang said he was "serious".

How do you sell this then?

You know, even if they didn't kill him, from now on, it would be difficult for Lou Yan to survive!

"I know." Yu Cang explained, "Don't worry, this time, our mission will be successfully completed. But on top of that, I want to do something else."

Qiu Jindong frowned slightly: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"I know very well."

"...Are you sure you didn't make this decision in the heat of the moment?" Qiu Jindong asked. "If you were simply persuaded by Lou Yan's pity and are afraid of losing face and refuse to change your mind, then I can secretly help you get rid of Lou Yan without your involvement."

"Don't worry, it's definitely not."

Seeing Yu Cang's determined eyes, which didn't seem fake, Qiu Jindong took a deep breath.

“…Okay then.”

He couldn't figure out what Yu Cang relied on to make this decision.

Is it too young?

But Tai Chu is... he will not obey Yu Cang's orders 100%. After all, the mission of this myth is only to protect Yu Cang from death, and the rest are just out of interest and willingness to cooperate.

Want Taichu to protect Lou Yan?

By then, the Changsheng Camp will besiege with the whole country's strength, and with the high probability of the gods descending, even Taichu will probably not have enough strength to spare.

Yu Cang's mythical power could only be used to make two strikes.

Therefore, Qiu Jindong felt that it might be the kind of speculation he just mentioned.

After all, they are young people... Forget it.

Qiu Jindong sighed silently in his heart, but didn't say anything.

Even if it is a wrong decision, as long as it can help Yu Cang grow, it doesn't matter even if it costs a little.

"Since you already know what's going on, I won't say any more." Qiu Jindong stood up. "The time we agreed to meet Naga is almost up. Let's go and talk to him."

"Okay. By the way, Qiu Zhenguo, there's one more thing..."

…

On the side, Lou Yan remained silent and said nothing more.

Gu Jieshuang scratched his head.

What happened?

The boss has a new apprentice?

Well... although Lou Yan is not disliked, but at this time, isn’t it a bit... Forget it, the boss must have his considerations!

He had a pretty good impression of Lou Yan.

However, since he is the boss's apprentice, he is also his junior... What Qiu Jindong said just now was somewhat hurtful.

So, Gu Jieshuang came up to Lou Yan and whispered, "Lou Yan, don't worry about it. Qiu Zhenguo's words are not directed at you."

Lou Yan nodded and smiled: "I know... Thank you, Master's Wife."

"Huh?"

Gu Jieshuang opened her eyes wide.

"Master's Wife?" Did you call her that?

She never thought that one day she would be called this!

Immediately, she coughed lightly and then patted Lou Yan's shoulder.

"Don't worry, I... my Master's Wife will protect you from now on. If you encounter any grievances, just tell her!"

Lou Yan nodded: "Yes, I will, thank you, Master's wife!"

Oh wow.

This name sounds really exciting.

Gu Jieshuang felt a little dizzy when she walked.

Wenren Ge: ...

walk slowly.

People of the same age even have apprentices.

And he didn't even understand the path he wanted to take.

Already, there is a generation gap.

…

After resting for a while, the group arrived at the big tent.

Naga, Nazhe and others have been waiting here for a long time.

"Come, come in." Naga extended his hand and beckoned, "Without wild grass to feed, our salt sheep lack some flavor... You all just have to make do with them for now. I'll treat you all properly after I kill that Sajue!"

"Then you are too polite, sir." Qiu Jindong kept smiling.

The furnishings in the tent were all the kind that could only be seen in costume dramas. A Naga sat on the main seat, with tables lined up on both sides. Below them were dancing singers with graceful figures and smiles on their faces.

After everyone was seated, Naga said with a smile, "My ambassadors, this place is small, not comparable to the golden palace of the Great King's Court. I hope you will forgive me."

"Yan laughed."

Qiu Jindong bowed slightly, without eating a single bite of the food on the table, and then spoke directly.

"I see that the patriarch is a straightforward person, so let's get straight to the point... Does the patriarch want to use the power of Yan Nation to get rid of this 'rebel' identity?"

As soon as these words came out, Naga's face trembled slightly.

He slowly put down the wine glass he had just picked up and his eyes fell on Qiu Jindong.
