Not to mention others, even Chu Mo himself was completely dumbfounded.
I don't even know this so-called leader of the Five Talents of the Southern Region. Why would he suddenly become my disciple?
"Hey, are you sure you're not mistaken? Didn't you want to become that old man's apprentice?"
Chu Mo couldn't help but ask in a daze.
Everyone stared at Zheng Jingnian, wanting to ask the same question.
At this moment, Venerable Cangyuan's face was already ashen, and his eyes were blazing with anger.
Is Zheng Jingnian out of his mind? He actually became Chu Mo's disciple?
Most importantly, he also naively believed that the other party wanted to worship him.
And he said those words just now.
After today, this matter will surely become a laughing stock in the Southern Region!
When others mention him, they will talk about how he tried so hard to take Zheng Jingnian as his disciple, but Zheng Jingnian ended up becoming a disciple of his rival.
Doesn't this imply that he's inferior to her? How could she possibly accept that?
What a disgrace!
At this moment, the hatred he felt for Zheng Jingnian was no less than that for Chu Mo.
Venerable Cangyuan could no longer contain himself and roared in a fit of rage:
"Zheng Jingnian, are you deliberately colluding with Chu Mo to embarrass this old man?"
Zheng Jingnian looked surprised: "Why does the Holy Lord say such a thing? I have admired my master for a long time, which is why I waited here a day in advance to become his disciple."
"But before this, I had never even met my master, so how could there be any talk of an alliance?"
Zheng Jingnian's eyes remained calm, showing no fear despite Venerable Cangyuan's anger.
Seeing this scene.
Xiahou Nan was already overjoyed, and immediately burst into laughter, mocking:
"Haha, you, the lord of a sacred land, are so angry at a junior who doesn't want to become your disciple? Aren't you ashamed?"
"That's right, does that mean all geniuses should become his disciples?"
Zeng Mushen also wore a cold smile, and after speaking, he continued to mock:
"Zheng Jingnian's choice to become my young master's disciple is a wise move. My young master is not comparable to some old men!"
Since the relationship had already been completely broken, he no longer cared about offending anyone.
My main motto is "I'll do whatever makes me happy."
"Hehe, Holy Lord Cangyuan, it's a young man's business who he wants to become his disciple. We can't just forcibly take his disciple away!"
Pei Tianxing, the lord of the Southern Region, also smiled broadly and loudly offered his advice, appearing like a kind-hearted old man.
But the sound was so loud that even people at the foot of the mountain could hear it clearly.
Venerable Cangyuan was so angry that his face turned pale, but he had no way to refute it.
It is their freedom to choose whom to become their teacher, and no one should interfere.
As for comparing talent with Chu Mo...
Even he wouldn't dare claim that his talent surpasses Chu Mo's.
That scoundrel isn't even human!
He had no choice but to remain silent for a moment, but the coldness in his eyes grew even stronger.
It seems Pei Tianxing has ulterior motives for coming here today.
He couldn't help but feel a growing sense of unease.
At this moment, the entire venue was silent.
Everyone's face was solemn, and no one dared to utter a sound.
Judging from this situation, it seems that the Domain Lord's Mansion is leaning towards the Demon Slayer Sect.
Currently, none of the other top powers have made a statement.
However, there are still three or four families that have Tribulation Transcending cultivators and clearly align themselves with the Wuji Holy Land.
As for the Demon Slayer Sect, it only has the Demon Suppression Kingdom, and even with the addition of the Demon Suppression Kingdom's vassal states, its strength is still slightly inferior.
But if the Domain Lord's Mansion also supports them... then things will be very different.
Even covert support is enough to make the Holy Land's advantage disappear.
Once a full-scale war breaks out, the outcome is truly uncertain.
Zheng Jingnian remained kneeling before Chu Mo, holding a teacup in his hands, raising it respectfully.
Xiahou Ruoxi, standing to the side, looked at Chu Mo with curiosity, her beautiful eyes sparkling.
This stunningly beautiful woman from the Southern Region felt as if he were radiating light.
Dazzling, mysterious, and majestic, it made her heart pound.
As expected of the man I've set my sights on, he truly is extraordinary!
Hmph, refusing the marriage alliance won't help. I'll make you marry me willingly!
The girl silently encouraged herself, her face blushing but her eyes unusually firm.
This is my man, Xiahou Ruoxi's man!
Chu Mo was already used to the girl's gaze. He looked down at the kneeling youth and frowned as he asked:
"Why do you want to become my disciple?"
Although it felt good to slap Cang Yuan in the face like that, he really had no intention of taking on any more disciples.
It should be noted that his two previous disciples were mostly taught by their master after the techniques were passed down to them.
Where would he find the time?
Zheng Jingnian quickly straightened his back and looked at him with admiration, saying earnestly:
"I told my father when I was young that my master must be far superior to me in terms of talent and cultivation, otherwise he is not worthy to be my master."
"Now, looking across the entire Southern Region, no one is more qualified than you!"
These arrogant words immediately enraged all the bigwigs in the room.
However, it must be admitted that, in terms of cultivation level and talent, Chu Mo is undoubtedly the most suitable person.
Although his cultivation level is not the highest, his combat strength is definitely above that of a fourth-tribulation cultivator.
Let alone teaching a Nascent Soul stage genius, he would be more than capable of teaching even a Dao Integration stage cultivator.
Especially his talent, which is absolutely unprecedented, making it difficult for him to become an immortal!
Therefore, although the bigwigs in the room felt aggrieved, they had nothing to say.
Upon hearing this, Chu Mo couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Don't you know I'm going to duel with Cang Yuan? How can you be so sure I can win?"
Zheng Jingnian looked slightly embarrassed, but still answered honestly:
