Registered apprentice!
When these four words slowly fell from Ye Wuque's mouth, everyone's expression was slightly stunned.
The second wife and the black feather wife were a little surprised, and the people in Tingfeng Tower found it incredible!
What is a registered apprentice?
It means that there is no need to perform solemn and formal apprenticeship rituals such as three kneelings and nine kowtows and serving tea. It is just a casual relationship similar to a student.
This kind of relationship is very loose, and the constraints on each other are not too great. It is even just a name and identity for both parties.
Of course, the master will also teach the registered apprentice things, but the relationship is the simplest and shallowest, and there is only the obligation of "teaching", and no other responsibilities and obligations are involved.
In other words, this kind of master-disciple relationship does not have much... cause and effect!
This is Ye Wuque's attitude towards Xuanyuanba.
Only in this way can you be free of worries, and only in this way can you... have no cause and effect!
Even Mu Daoqi, who is a life-saving and reborn benefactor, chose to refuse his recognition as a master. How could he casually impose another cause and effect on himself?
And it is a very deep master-disciple cause and effect!
In the near future, he would participate in the supreme event and leave the Dark Hall, so it would be impossible for him to teach Xuan Yuanba for a long time; in the long run, he would face thorns and killings along the way. With a real apprentice, it would be completely different. A true
master-disciple relationship is like that of a father and son!
The master needs to bear many responsibilities and obligations, not only teaching, but also protecting and blessing.
And Ye Wuque is still on the road of pursuing everything, how can he calm down and train a disciple?
Therefore, under Ye Wuque's current mentality, he naturally would not establish a true master-disciple relationship with Xuan Yuanba and entangle each other.
Registering as an apprentice is undoubtedly a relatively compromise.
"Ah?"
Xuan Yuanba was a little stunned after hearing Ye Wuque's indifferent but firm voice. Then a touch of loss and sadness flashed across his face. He lowered his head and fell into silence, as if thinking.
Tingfeng Tower became dead silent again.
In this situation, even the Second Madam couldn't say much, because it was Elder Ye's freedom to accept a disciple or not, and how to accept a disciple.
Ye Wuque stood with his hands behind his back, his face calm, waiting for Xuan Yuanba's answer.
"I do!"
After just three or five breaths, Xuan Yuanba's head suddenly raised up, and his face showed a firm and persistent look again, with a radiance in his eyes!
"A registered apprentice is also a disciple! Disciple is willing!"
Immediately, Xuan Yuanba stood up straight and took a deep breath. He clasped
his fists!
He bent over!
He bowed deeply and solemnly to Ye Wuque!
"The registered apprentice Xuan Yuanba greets the master!"
Xuan Yuanba's voice was also decisive and convinced, echoing in the hall of Tingfeng Tower.
Standing tall, Ye Wuque did not stop Xuan Yuanba's action this time, but accepted Xuan Yuanba's greeting.
"In this case, from now on, you are my registered apprentice. Don't call me Master, just call me Teacher."
Ye Wuque's faint voice sounded.
"Yes, Master...Teacher!"
Xuan Yuanba immediately changed his words.
"Haha, it doesn't matter whether it's a master or a teacher! Yuanba, since Elder Ye is willing to accept you, you must behave well and work hard, understand?"
At this moment, the second wife finally stepped forward and spoke with a smile. She was obviously very satisfied with this result.
In her opinion, no matter what, her son had already worshipped Elder Ye as his teacher, and the master-disciple relationship was settled. And soon the opportunity would be spread out, which meant that from now on Elder Ye would be completely tied to her lineage and become a real one of hers!
The second wife was naturally happy.
"Mom, I understand, don't worry, I will definitely practice well!"
Xuan Yuanba also clenched his fists, his face full of expectation and determination.
"Well, I'll leave first. Elder Ye, I'll entrust Yuanba to you. I hope you can take good care of him. In addition, no matter what you need, you can go directly to Elder He."
After saying this, the second wife turned around and left with a smile, with a sense of letting go, as if her steps became lighter. After
the second wife left, Tingfeng Tower became busy again, and everyone performed their duties.
"Teacher! When do we start practicing?"
Xuan Yuanba said excitedly, his face full of expectations!
The shocking scene of his teacher crushing his sister's Dafan Yanshen Palm with one hand still remained in his heart, making his blood boil!
He wished he could become like his teacher immediately, and be invincible in the world with one move!
Ye Wuque did not speak, but just stared at Xuan Yuanba quietly, with purple and gold light flashing in the depths of his bright eyes.
After observing for half a minute, Ye Wuque suddenly turned around and walked towards the second floor. Just when Xuan Yuanba was about to follow, a faint voice came.
"I'll go get ready, you stand here and wait for me."
"Yes, teacher!"
Xuan Yuanba, who originally wanted to follow, immediately stood up straight and spoke loudly and respectfully, but he was more and more excited and expectant in his heart.
The teacher prepared and then began to teach him to practice formally.
So the honorable original Wang Ling young master of the Dark Hall stood here meticulously, like standing in a military posture, motionless.
Going up to the second floor again, Ye Wuque returned to the room and sat down.
Then he flipped his right hand and took out the Tiansheng Yin Yang Zhi again.
In order to refine the Tiansheng Yin Yang Zhi into the Tiansheng Yin Yang Pill and fully exert its medicinal power and spiritual energy, Ye Wuque still needs to plan carefully, how to refine it, what other natural treasures and spiritual plants are best to add, and so on. All these need to be thought about.
Just like that, Ye Wuque, who was sitting upright, began to plan carefully.
It seemed that he had completely forgotten that there was a student in the hall on the first floor who was eager to try and looking forward to it.
Half an hour.
One hour.
Two hours.
...
After about three hours, Ye Wuque seemed to come to his senses and sat up straight. A faint smile appeared on his face, which was originally thoughtful.
"That's it, it's almost done. All the medicinal power and spiritual energy of Tiansheng Yinyangzhi can be excavated..."
Obviously, Ye Wuque has figured out the recipe of Tiansheng Yinyang Pill.
"Has it been three hours? It's faster than I thought. Let's see how this kid is doing?"
After calculating the time, Ye Wuque's mind moved, and everything on the first floor of the hall was in sight, including Xuan Yuanba's figure.
At this moment, Xuan Yuanba's face had long lost the excitement, excitement and expectation at the beginning, and was replaced by a feeling of impatience and irritability. The body that was originally standing upright seemed to loosen up and sway from time to time.
However, despite this, Xuan Yuanba still stood there and did not leave. He just looked at the room on the second floor where Ye Wuque was from time to time, with the same impatience and irritability, and seemed a little drowsy.
Ye Wuque, who had seen Xuan Yuanba's subtle expression, showed an expression of "as expected", but then showed a faint smile.
"Being able to stand here honestly is much better than I imagined..."
At this moment, the tightly closed door suddenly opened, and Ye Wuque walked out slowly.
