"Just go back if I tell you to! Why are you so disobedient?!" Venerable Mo Shang's beard started blowing again.
"Uh... okay, then I'll go back." Seeing Master Mo Shang glaring at him, Xu Errong touched his nose. He really didn't have the Master's favor anymore, so he should just be obedient and go back...
An Ran looked at Venerable Mo Shang in confusion. What did he want to ask that made him chase Xu Errong away? Seeing Venerable Mo Shang's meaningful glances from time to time, and thinking about his unpredictable personality, she felt a little uneasy and guilty. Could it be that Venerable Mo Shang had discovered something...
The room was silent...
Venerable Mo Shang stood by the window with his back to An Ran, watching the various rare and precious herbs blooming outside. He remained silent, his back a weathered yet majestic figure. At this moment, he finally looked like a hermit...
An Ran felt a little guilty. She was not sure why Venerable Mo Shang kept her here. Now that Mo Shang had been silent, she felt even more uneasy.
Gradually, an unsettling atmosphere of silence began to spread throughout the room. The atmosphere became increasingly oppressive, making An Ran want to escape...
After Xu Errong completely walked out of the barrier, Venerable Mo Shang spoke calmly, completely without the previous madness: "Girl, not bad. Under my aura, you can endure until now without saying a word. You are the first."
"Uh... Yunxi is just tongue-tied and doesn't know what to say." This simple question made An Ran even more uneasy. Did he really know something?
She thought that her disguise skills had reached the pinnacle and that almost no one could tell the difference in her previous life. Now, she not only changed her appearance, but also integrated magical elements into the disguise, making it even harder to tell the difference. She just didn't know whether the people in this world, especially super strong people like Venerable Mo Shang, would notice that she had changed her appearance?
"Hahahahaha, are you still calling yourself dumb? After I scared the others like this, they said everything. You are a good girl." Venerable Mo Shang turned around and said while sitting on a stool beside him.
"Haha, I'm afraid too, but I just don't know what the Venerable wants me to say." An Ran wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, but she was already certain in her heart that Venerable Mo Shang knew something, and secretly became more vigilant.
"Okay, girl, don't be so wary of me. I won't do anything to you. I'm just curious about your true appearance..." Seeing An Ran's defensive face, Venerable Mo Shang smiled lightly to dispel her vigilance.
It seems that he really knows. An Ran became even more alert. This Venerable Mo Shang is much more powerful than she imagined. She remained silent. Revealing her true face means revealing her identity. She came to this school only because of Danlu's suggestion. Being appreciated by Venerable Mo Shang was completely unexpected. Moreover, she didn't know what Venerable Mo Shang saw in her and why he wanted to accept her as a disciple.
Was it because of talent? This vast continent was never short of geniuses, and she believed that as long as Venerable Mo Shang sent the word to recruit disciples, these talented students of the Wood and Fire elements would definitely compete to become his disciples.
"What? Can't I even see the true face of my own disciple? Oh my, why is my life so miserable? I accepted a disciple, but I won't even recognize him when I walk on the street in the future... Wuuuuu... Why is my life so miserable..." Seeing that An Ran was silent and did not respond to him, Venerable Mo Shang rolled his eyes and started to throw a tantrum, pretending to cry.
An Ran's forehead twitched unexpectedly. She was wrong. The appearance of Venerable Mo Shang as an otherworldly master just now was definitely her illusion. This excellent performance of singing and reciting really made her unable to believe what she had just seen.
Seeing the two crystal clear tears squeezed out of the corners of Venerable Mo Shang's wrinkled eyes, An Ran's forehead throbbed even more violently. This Venerable Mo Shang was really too devilish...
"Okay, okay, can't I just show it to you now?" An Ran surrendered.
Venerable Mo Shang immediately stopped crying and looked at An Ran with a smile on his face: "Well, that's good. It would have been better if you showed it to me earlier. You had to make me cry before you agreed!"
An Ran no longer wanted to bother with this Venerable Mo Shang. He didn't follow the rules at all. He acted recklessly, even throwing tantrums. How could she expect Venerable Mo Shang to compromise?!
With a stretch of her hand and a wipe of her face, An Ran removed the disguise on her face, revealing her original stunning beauty.
Venerable Mo Shang could no longer hold back and walked to An Ran's side. After An Ran took off her disguise, he looked at An Ran's face carefully and praised: "Oh my, my disciple is so good-looking, so beautiful. Why do you have to cover up your face? Can you tell me about it?" He stared at An Ran curiously, his green bean-sized eyes full of gossip.
"Uh..." An Ran was embarrassed. She didn't expect that the highly respected Venerable Mo Shang would also gossip!
As if he had heard An Ran's inner voice, Venerable Mo Shang covered his mouth and coughed twice, then said with a bit of embarrassment: "Ahem, I'm just curious. After all, as Mo Shang's disciple, I never need to pretend!"
"...But I'm not your disciple yet! Senior!" An Ran looked at Venerable Mo Shang with tears in her eyes. If Venerable Mo Shang asked her any more questions, she would not be able to hide anything!
"Oh, that doesn't matter. It's enough for me to recognize you as my disciple. I will announce to the public that you are my disciple. Who dares to question me?!" Venerable Mo Shang waved his hand and said domineeringly.
An Ran was really about to cry. Such an unreasonable and domineering person, but people actually thought he was unfathomable. They were simply blind!
"Okay, tell me now. You will definitely tell me in the end anyway. Go ahead and tell me. I will definitely protect my disciple." Venerable Mo Shang looked at An Ran with a proud look on his face.
Alas... An Ran sighed inwardly. She really had no way to deal with the invulnerable Mo Shang. But being his disciple and having him protect her was also good. At least the An family in Xinghu City now had a super strong guard.
After figuring this out, An Ran walked to the desk, picked up the teapot on the desk, poured a cup of tea, and walked in front of Venerable Mo Shang.
"Master, please accept my disciple's greeting." An Ran knelt down and performed the ceremony of paying homage to Master Mo Shang.
"Well... let's become my disciple first and tell you the reason later. It seems that this matter is a bit tricky, so you have to seek my help." Venerable Mo Shang looked quietly at An Ran who was kneeling on the ground, and said lightly.
"Well, accepting a disciple means you should protect her! With my name as Venerable Mo Shang, I am more than capable of protecting an individual and a family!" After a while, Venerable Mo Shang reached out to take the tea handed to him by An Ran and drank it all in one gulp!
