While contemplating the old man’s strength, Feng Tianlan’s face suddenly darkened. When did he come? Had he shown himself so as to catch her after hearing her conversation with the secret guards?”
“Meow!” Little Furball bared its teeth and stared at the old man, who snatched away its food. It looked like Little Furball wanted to pounce on him and eat him up.
The Spiritual Grandmaster faced the Spiritual Master just like a kid facing an adult. There was no chance of her winning!
After confirming the difference in their strength, Feng Tianlan stopped bothering with the Beast Vitality Pill that she’d just refined and stashed away her Fire Cloud Furnace. Feng Tianlan forced Little Furball, who was about to explode in anger, back into the Pill Scroll Realm. She then turned around calmly, wanting to leave. After two steps, a strong wind blew past her ears. The old man had caught up to her.
Feng Tianlan felt anxious. She clenched her fists and gathered her spiritual force, ready to attack!
Flip-flap!
“Master, please accept your disciple’s honor!”
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Three loud sounds of kowtowing made Feng Tianlan, who was ready to attack, back off a step. She glanced at the old man as he stood up and said to him, “I am not your master!”
Lunatic?
An Advanced-stage Spiritual Emperor lunatic?
The old man touched his grayish-white long beard and murmured, “I have gone through the master-honoring ceremony. You are the master, and I am the disciple.”
“I don’t take disciples.” Feng Tianlan glanced at him faintly. How could an Advanced-stage Spiritual Emperor actually become disciple when she was still only a Middle-stage Spiritual Grandmaster? Either this man was a lunatic, or he was pulling a prank on her.
“You have accepted my master-honoring ceremony, which makes you my master. You can’t take advantage of me for nothing.”
Feng Tianlan saw his stubborn attitude. She frowned slightly and said slowly, “Senior, you are an Advanced-stage Spiritual Emperor, while I am just a Middle-stage Spiritual Grandmaster. Furthermore, you actually showed up here, so I am afraid you might be an elder from Flying Frost Pavilion. As a new disciple, I may even have to call you ‘martial uncle,’ so how can I be your master?”
Advanced-staged Spiritual Emperor?
There wasn’t anyone with such strength among the elders of the Flying Frost Pavilion. Could it be that he wasn’t from the Flying Frost Pavilion?
“Martial uncle?” The old man immediately waved his hands like a troublesome child. “I don’t want to be your martial uncle. I want to be your disciple. I want you to teach me the pill-refining method you just used.”
He’d seen that her pill refining method differed from his. It was a method that he had never seen before, and the finished product was miraculously good. She’d actually refined ten seventh-grade Beast Vitality Pills in one go.
She had a great talent for refining pills. If they’d met before the old man had known this about her, he definitely would have been willing to take her on as his disciple. However, he wanted to learn her pill refining method, so he could only be her disciple!
Uh-huh. In the future, she might become the greatest alchemist. Although there was a huge difference in their age, so their master-student relationship was upside down, but he definitely stood to benefit more than she did from this arrangement!
“I have no intention of accepting disciples.” Feng Tianlan walked past the old man and promptly left the forest.
Although there weren’t any guards around, there were guards posted outside the forest. Besides, the guards’ shifts were going to change very soon. If they missed this, they would have to wait in the forest until dawn, when they would easily be spotted in the morning.
“Master.” The old man quickly chased after Feng Tianlan, wanting to stop her. He wanted her to be his master, so he didn’t dare to offend her because he was afraid that she would be annoyed. Then, she would be even more reluctant to accept him as her disciple. Hence, he could only shout while following on her heels.
When they were close to the edge of the forest, the old man stopped shouting. He was afraid that the guards might be alerted. In the end, he opened his eyes wide and watched Feng Tianlan depart the forest, but he couldn’t leave!
His old face was full of discontentment!
He had no other hobbies besides refining pills. Therefore, if he came in contact with a new pill-refining method but was unable to learn it, he felt worse than death.
He must make her his master! She must become his teacher. As for those brats at the Flying Frost Pavilion…
Humph, humph! Don’t even think about taking advantage!
