Chapter 80 A Belated Apprenticeship Ceremony
"In that case, I have three conditions."
"Alright, young friend, please speak!"
Ye Luo glanced at Nan Muyin, coughed lightly, and said seriously, "First, this medicine is still in the research and development stage and has not yet been perfected, so we still need Senior Brother to help test it, so you cannot take it away."
“That’s natural; we’ll follow your arrangements, young friend,” the Grand Elder of the Nan family continued. “And the second one?”
Ye Luo got up and walked towards Yu Xian'er. "Secondly, from now on, Nan Muyin's wife can only be my second senior sister, Yu Xian'er. You cannot arrange any messy marriages for him in the name of the family."
"Very well, I hereby guarantee it!" The Grand Elder of the Nan family patted his chest and said, "From now on, if anyone in the family dares to raise any objections, I will be the first to not spare them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone around him looked at him with strange eyes, and couldn't help but think to themselves: Aren't you the one with the most objections?
It was he who strongly suggested coming to Tiankun City to arrest people, and now that he looks like this, everyone can't help but look at each other in bewilderment.
“Junior Brother…” Yu Xian’er’s face was full of emotion. She and Nan Muyin exchanged a glance, as if they were both saying that their junior brother had not been spoiled in vain!
Unexpectedly, with just a few words, I helped them solve a lot of troubles.
The Grand Elder of the Nan family ignored the gazes around him, showing no embarrassment whatsoever. He coughed lightly and continued, "Young friend, what is the third condition?"
Upon hearing this, a sly glint appeared in Ye Luo's eyes, and he chuckled, "Hehe, the third thing is that it's time for our Peach Blossom Valley to be repaired..."
The First Elder of the Nan family was naturally a shrewd person, and immediately understood his meaning. "Oh, I understand! After I return, I will immediately send people to Peach Blossom Valley to repair the houses, and also expand the buildings and several training grounds, etc."
Upon hearing the Nan family elder's promise, Ming Cang was secretly overjoyed, but on the surface he pretended to decline, saying, "Oh, no, that won't do! How can I let you spend money?"
"Oh, this is just a small token of my appreciation! Please consider it a gift for the young master to formally become his disciple!"
"But this gift is too much... How can we accept it?"
“Master, you don’t need to worry about this. The Grand Elder has already said it’s a formal apprenticeship gift.” Nan Muyin smiled and held Yu Xian’er’s hand as she continued, “Besides, this apprenticeship gift is doubled, so it’s not too heavy.”
Yu Xian'er blushed, looking at him with a shy expression, her face beaming with a happy smile.
Seeing the two of them so affectionate, Nan Yaoyao's eyes sparkled and her face was beaming with delight. She jumped up and down, shouting, "Yay! Yay! Yay! I'm so happy!"
"Uh..." Ye Luo was speechless. Looking at her excited appearance, she was simply a true reflection of a CP fan.
Afterwards, the group settled all matters and chatted for a while. Ming Cang, unusually generous, actually took the elders of the Nan family out for drinks.
After they all left, Yu Xian'er looked at Ye Luo curiously and asked, "Junior Brother, what exactly are those medicines you have?"
She naturally had doubts, fearing that the medicine was just a fake to appease the Nan family, and that she would end up disappointed.
"It's a secret, I can't tell you yet."
Ye Luo chuckled and continued, "But don't worry, I won't let anything happen to Senior Brother."
"Alright, then I'll leave it to you." Yu Xian'er smiled and didn't ask any more questions. She knew he was hiding many secrets, but he wouldn't harm them.
The next day, early morning.
From inside the inn came Nan Yaoyao's pitiful sobs, "Waaah, brother, I don't want to go back! Please let me stay!"
"no!"
"With Elder Qi protecting me, I'll be fine..."
"Listen to me!" Nan Muyin's attitude was firm, but looking at her younger sister who was crying her eyes out, her tone softened slightly as she said:
"Last night I heard that several rogue cultivators died mysteriously outside the city, and the way they died was quite strange. Tiankun City is not safe now, so don't be willful or your brother will worry."
"Oh..." Nan Yaoyao looked at him with teary eyes, sobbing as she asked, "When are you going home? Father misses you very much..."
Upon hearing this, Nan Muyin's expression stiffened. After a pause, she said, "Let's wait until after the competition. Brother, find some time to go home."
"Okay! Then I'll wait for my brother at home." Nan Yaoyao looked at Yu Xian'er and giggled, "Then sister-in-law must come too!"
Hearing this, Yu Xian'er's ears turned red, and she looked at Nan Muyin with a shy expression, "We'll see..."
"Alright, I'll definitely bring my sister-in-law home next time." Nan Muyin patted Nan Yaoyao's head and smiled, "Good girl, hurry back with the elders."
"Um!"
"Young Master, we'll head back to our clan now."
After the First Elder of the Nan family finished speaking, he looked at Ye Luo. Nan Muyin naturally understood his concerns and said, "Don't worry, First Elder, my junior brother and I will definitely inform the clan as soon as we develop an effective pill."
"Very well!" he said, bowing solemnly to Ye Luo. "Then I'll leave it to you, young friend!"
"Don't worry, Ye Luo will do her best."
"Then I'll take my leave!"
As everyone watched the luxurious carriage drive away, Nan Yaoyao suddenly poked her head out and called out, "Brother Xiaoluo, come play next time too! I'll have the cooks make you some delicious desserts!"
"Hehe, okay!"
After seeing the Nan family off, everyone followed Ming Cang to the competition venue. They arrived relatively late, and by then many people had already drawn their turn to compete.
"Xiao Luo, you must stay calm when drawing talismans. Try to get fifth place today to get extra points," Ming Cang instructed.
"Fifth? Who do you think you are?"
Ming Cang: "??"
Ye Luo grinned at him, "Watch me get you first place!" With that, she waved her fan and walked towards the drawing area on the stage.
His arrogant demeanor made the participating disciples who heard it want to beat him up.
"That brat..."
"It's very commendable that a young man has such drive!" The First Elder's face was full of approval, and the elders beside him nodded in agreement.
Nan Muyin smiled warmly as she watched Ye Luo's retreating figure and said, "Perhaps he really can bring back first place. Our junior brother always manages to surprise people."
Cen Feng: "Master, Junior Brother draws all his own talismans. He sold quite a few spirit stones in the Spirit Mansion Forbidden Area before, so you don't need to worry about him too much."
Suddenly, a woman dressed in silver descended from the sky. Her hair was as black as lacquer, her skin as smooth as jade, and her beautiful eyes sparkled. Every smile and frown revealed a captivating charm.
She gracefully landed in front of the stage, smiled slightly at the crowd, and said, "I will be hosting this talisman competition. Everyone, please do your best!"
"Ahhh, it's Fairy Qingyi!"
"I can't believe she actually came! I've finally met her in person!"
"I didn't expect her to have emerged from seclusion and must be a major cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage by now! I'm so envious!!"
Ye Luo looked at the woman in front of him. She had a gentle and dignified temperament and seemed quite pleasing to the eye, at least much more so than Bai Ruoqian.
"Cousin!"
Just then, a sweet voice rang out, and Bai Ruoqian ran towards her. Ye Luo looked speechless; indeed, one shouldn't say anything to people...
