“Senior, I am already preparing to become a disciple of Longhu Mountain, so I cannot become your disciple!”
Shi Shan had already made up his mind. Longhu Mountain was a top-tier institution in the world. His master had promised to allocate resources to him and would also reserve the position of Celestial Master for him. Of course, this was just a private revelation, but Shi Shan knew very well that as long as he maintained a fast enough growth rate, he would definitely be the next Celestial Master.
With such a bright future, why would I want to join the Jie Sect? Wouldn't that be foolish?
Upon hearing this,
Lu Chuan wasn't surprised and looked at Shi Shan, asking, "Are you really unwilling?"
Shi Shan replied without hesitation, "Thank you for your kindness, senior, but I already have a master and cannot switch!"
After saying that,
Lu Chuan nodded slightly, "If you're unwilling, then so be it!"
This is all about fate; it seems the dog system is malfunctioning and just messed things up!
He doesn't beg to be taken on as an apprentice; there are far too many who want to be his apprentice. Who can just decide to become one?
Lu Chuan saw right through Shi Shan's thoughts. Such a person was not worthy of being his apprentice. It was just a wasted trip, no big deal!
At this moment, a weak voice rang out, "Senior, I am willing, could you... could you take me as your disciple?"
In an instant,
All eyes turned to the source of the voice, which belonged to a frail-looking young man. The disciples of Longhu Mountain looked at him with disdain.
Lu Chuan glanced at the boy up and down and asked, "What's your name?"
"Lin Jiu!" the boy said firmly.
Lin Jiu?!
Lu Chuan was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised, because he was very familiar with this name. In his previous life on Earth, he was a leading figure in zombie movies. Coincidence? Or...?
Suddenly, Lu Chuan seemed to have caught a glimpse of the universe, but when he tried to explore it further, all he found was boundless chaos and darkness, utter confusion.
in this way,
Lu Chuan didn't delve any further into the matter, but instead looked at Lin Jiu and asked, "Why do you want to become my disciple?!"
"I want to cultivate, because only through cultivation can I live, slay zombies, protect those I want to protect, protect all living beings, and bring peace to the world, freeing it from the suffering caused by zombies!" Lin Jiu said earnestly.
Such words, when heard by the disciples of Longhu Mountain, inevitably drew ridicule, with each person's eyes filled with mockery and disdain.
In their view, with Lin Jiu's talent, it would be good enough if he could reach the Foundation Establishment stage. If he could reach the Golden Core stage by chance, it would be considered a stroke of good luck. How could he expect the world to be peaceful and free from the suffering of zombies?
Good heavens!
That's really daring to open a dental clinic, and that's really daring to boast!
"From now on, you can follow me!" Lu Chuan said calmly.
After saying that,
Lin Jiu was overjoyed and without the slightest hesitation, he quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Master!"
“Get up. These formalities can be avoided if they can be avoided. Your teacher doesn’t care about these things!” Lu Chuan replied.
"Yes, Master!" Lin Jiu replied.
At this time,
The old Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain rang out with a mocking laugh, "Congratulations, congratulations on accepting your beloved disciple. However... this disciple will probably require a lot of effort from you. This child's aptitude and talent are extremely poor, otherwise he wouldn't have been rejected. With such talent, it would be best for him to live as an ordinary citizen under the protection of the righteous path. Why get involved in this quagmire? If you don't teach him well, you'll only bring shame to your Jie Sect!"
These words were laced with sarcasm. Lu Chuan's sudden appearance to snatch his disciple naturally displeased him, and now that Lu Chuan had taken on such a disciple, he was bound to take this opportunity to put him down!
"Lack of natural talent?" Lu Chuan's lips curled slightly. "That depends on who you choose as your teacher!"
A single, casual remark instantly turned the old Taoist's face ashen, turning it extremely pale. These words implied that he was incompetent!
On Longhu Mountain, he dared to be so presumptuous and arrogant; it was truly despicable!
However, the old Taoist priest did not make a move. Lu Chuan appeared out of thin air just now, and no one on Longhu Mountain, including him, noticed it, which shows how strong Lu Chuan's cultivation was.
Even he might not be able to defeat Lu Chuan, otherwise how could he allow Lu Chuan to act so recklessly in Longhu Mountain?
Given the current situation, it's not wise to launch a major offensive and needlessly waste resources.
Of course, Lu Chuan's arrogance cannot be ignored, otherwise how could he continue to lead Longhu Mountain?
Furthermore, Shishan must remain his disciple; his resolve must not be shaken.
Fortunately, Shishan is still young and has not been exposed to the path of cultivation. Otherwise, if he had known how powerful Lu Chuan was, Shishan probably would not have chosen Longhu Mountain.
Of course, not necessarily, but the rejection might not be as quick as it is now.
"What you say... Hmph! How about this, sixteen years from now, let your disciple and my disciple have a contest to see whose disciple is stronger!"
Since it's a competition, there must be a prize. If your disciple loses, you will have to climb to the top of my Longhu Mountain, step by step, bowing as you go, to atone for your sins today.
"If your disciple accepts, you may make any demands you have. Even if you want my life, it is not impossible!" the old Taoist said confidently.
He was certain that with Shi Shan's natural talent and the abundant resources of Longhu Mountain, unless he had a stroke of luck that allowed him to seize the destiny of heaven and earth, how could Lin Jiu possibly be a match for Shi Shan? No matter how hard he tried, he could never catch up with Shi Shan.
The old Taoist firmly believes this!
Lu Chuan: ⊙﹏⊙! ?
Good grief, you've got a good eye for talent. You want to compete with me in having apprentices? This is like throwing a brick into my hand! You can easily crush me!
I have to say, this old guy really knows how to pick a good pair, he's incredibly smart!
now,
Lin Jiu quietly tugged at Lu Chuan's sleeve, clearly wanting Lu Chuan to refuse, as he himself had no confidence in his own talent.
Shi Shan is a recognized prodigy with unparalleled talent, but what about him? He can't even get into Longhu Mountain. Even if he were to work as a servant, no one would want him. So, how can he be compared to Shi Shan?
Absolutely not!
No matter how hard he tries, the upper limit of his talent is there, and he can never surpass Shishan.
In response, Lu Chuan simply gave Lin Jiu a reassuring look and replied calmly, "Alright, as you said, let's settle this matter. However... sixteen years is a bit too long. Ten years would be more appropriate!"
Seeing that Lu Chuan had agreed, the old Taoist priest, feeling confident of victory, said in high spirits, "Alright, fine, it's as you say, ten years it is!"
With that said, the matter was settled!
At this moment,
Shi Shan looked at Lin Jiu with a face full of confidence. He was naturally confident that Lin Jiu could never catch up with him in ten years.
He will definitely win this battle!
Facing Shi Shan's gaze, Lin Jiu was initially somewhat afraid, but he quickly overcame his fear and looked back at Shi Shan, his eyes still full of confidence.
In an instant,
As the two locked eyes, sparks seemed to fly between them.
then,
Lu Chuan took Lin Jiu down from Longhu Mountain, and a ten-year agreement was thus made.
