Chapter 48 Becoming an Apprentice.
"After we ascended to heaven, Ji Yue had high standards and never found a disciple she was satisfied with, so the succession was never secured."
Although with our cultivation level we could live for countless years, I always felt that Jiyue was somewhat lonely if things continued like this.
"This is the place where Jiyue and I lived in seclusion when we ascended to heaven. Today, I sensed that the spiritual consciousness left behind in the mortal realm had been touched and cast its gaze upon us. 'Young lady, you have quite a talent. If you are willing, you can inherit Jiyue's mantle.'" The young man explained why he had suddenly appeared.
After hearing the two's story, the three understood why they had never heard of the Medicine Ancestor's Daoist partner. However, Cheng Jiu felt a little uneasy, since she had heard the Medicine Ancestor's story since she was a child.
I always thought that the Medicine Ancestor ascended to immortality through the elixir of immortality. I can't quite put my finger on it, can I? I always felt that with the Medicine Ancestor as a precedent, aptitude wasn't important. There are three thousand Great Daos, and any one of them can lead to ascension.
Now they're telling her that qualifications are more important. Even the legendary Medicine Ancestor, who had precedents, ascended to immortality through a path that ordinary people couldn't replicate.
It can be said that the story of the Medicine Ancestor has inspired many cultivators with relatively ordinary aptitudes. It could even be said to be their spiritual pillar. At this moment, Cheng Jiu didn't know whether to be glad or sad about his good aptitude.
The fact that it could attract the Great Dao Tribulation Thunder shows just how heaven-defying that Heaven-Mending Pill must be.
Although his mind was in turmoil, upon hearing Chen Siyuan's question and under everyone's gaze, Cheng Jiu firmly replied, "Thank you for your kindness, senior. I already have a master, who treats me like a father, so I do not wish to take on a second master."
Cang Jiyue actually admired her somewhat. After all, if others knew his identity, let alone that he had a master before, they might immediately kneel down and become his disciple.
Are you worried that your master will mind?
"This junior does not wish to secretly become someone else's disciple after only one training trip. This junior does not want to disappoint Master." Cheng Jiu felt that the cultivation world should still care a lot about this.
"Why don't you ask your master? Maybe he doesn't care?" Cang Jiyue said.
Chen Siyuan, standing beside her, looked at his lover with some surprise. It seemed that he was quite satisfied with this apprentice, otherwise he wouldn't have asked about him so many times.
Looking at the disciple whom his lover had finally chosen, his gaze softened even more: "You can ask your master. It's not outrageous to have multiple masters in the cultivation world. Ji Yue isn't that domineering; she only wants to be your one and only master."
Cheng Jiu wanted to speak up, but he was too embarrassed to ask. It felt a bit like a wife cheating on her husband. Although the circumstances were different, the feeling was similar.
The next second, everything went foggy, and Cheng Jiu's body went limp and collapsed. Yingyue and Wen Sishu, who were standing nearby, caught her with lightning speed.
"Would you two be willing to become my disciples?" Chen Siyuan didn't forget the two disciples who had come with Cheng Jiu. He saw that the three of them seemed to have a good relationship. If only Cheng Jiu became the disciple of this powerful figure this time, the other two might inevitably develop resentment towards each other.
Therefore, Chen Siyuan did not want these three people, who were originally on good terms, to part ways because of this matter. Having three or five close friends in life is already a great blessing, so he asked the other two.
Yingyue bluntly said, "Immortal Lord, you actually didn't fancy us, did you?"
Chen Siyuan paused for a moment, then smiled without saying a word.
"This is a stroke of luck for Junior Sister Cheng Jiu. She is indeed exceptionally talented, and this is what she deserves."
As for us, we also have our own masters and senior brothers and sisters, so the Immortal Lord doesn't need to ask to take us as disciples because of this matter. We will never harbor any resentment or even jealousy towards our junior sister because of this." Wen Sishu said very seriously.
Hearing what they said, the Medicine Ancestor was quite impressed with the two of them: "You don't need to mind so much. Ji Yue and I have taken different paths and have taken in many disciples. If you are willing, you can become my disciples."
"But we already have a master, and we need to talk to him about this." The two were certainly tempted, but thinking of their master, they felt that if the old apothecary did not agree, they would rather not become his disciple.
"good."
Before their eyes blurred, they collapsed softly to the ground, and Cheng Jiu was placed on the couch beside them.
On the contrary, the three of them slept the best.
In the distance, on Canglan Peak of the Guiyuan Sect, the Qingxu Venerable, who was in seclusion, felt a powerful summons.
He didn't even have time to resist before being pulled into a white space.
He became wary and was about to attack when he saw his young apprentice who was undergoing training.
"Xiao Jiu?"
"Master!" Cheng Jiu exclaimed excitedly upon seeing the person who had appeared.
As for it not being Qingxu Venerable Lord, that's impossible. Cheng Jiu doesn't think she's charming enough to make a powerful figure like Cang Jiyue do such a shameless thing to take her as a disciple.
"What's going on?" Venerable Qingxu looked at the powerful man beside her. He himself was a prodigy, capable of defeating enemies beyond his own level. Even those immortals, though respected, were not feared by him.
Because he knew that after he broke through to the Mahayana stage, he would be able to slay even immortals.
But the man before him inspired a sense of awe and awe, a feeling of being an unmatched being. He was truly an extremely dangerous man! How had his little apprentice provoked such a figure? And even summoned him of her own accord!
Cang Jiyue also carefully examined him, nodding inwardly: "Would you be willing to become my disciple?"
"Huh?" This time, Cheng Jiu and Qingxu Venerable Lord both exclaimed in surprise.
Cheng Jiu really wanted to ask Cang Jiyue, "Didn't he want to take me as his disciple? Why did he suddenly take a fancy to my master?" Although her master was also a prodigy, she knew it perfectly well.
Cang Jiyue met Cheng Jiu's gaze calmly: "Both of you can become my disciples together."
Cheng Jiu said she couldn't accept it. She couldn't do something as disrespectful and treacherous as her master becoming her senior brother!
"No way!" This time, Cheng Jiu and Venerable Qingxu spoke at the same time; neither of them could accept it!
At this moment, another person appeared in the space. It was the Medicine Ancestor. He was somewhat surprised to see the three people looking at each other. "This, haven't they reached an agreement yet?"
"This kind of thing is completely non-negotiable, okay?" Cheng Jiu's tone was slightly exasperated. For a master and disciple to simultaneously become disciples of a powerful figure was far too extraordinary; sorry, she belonged to the conservative faction!
"I want to take them both as my disciples!" Cang Jiyue said calmly to her lover as she looked at the two of them.
"I don't want to take on a new master yet," Venerable Qingxu said calmly. He roughly understood that this powerful being wanted to take his disciple as a student. But after seeing him, it turned into him wanting to take both master and disciple as students.
However, he's past the age for becoming an apprentice, and he doesn't want to find himself a new father figure right now! Besides, his master, that damned devil, has finally ascended to immortality, and he doesn't want another father figure weighing on his head!
The Medicine Ancestor looked at his lover with a headache: "Alright, tone it down. Since your little disciple's master is unwilling, don't force him. He's already this age, why would he want to take on a master?"
"He's only a thousand years old, but I'm very strong!" Cang Jiyue didn't think there was anything wrong with this, after all, compared to him, Qingxu Venerable was indeed like a child.
The Medicine Ancestor rolled his eyes at him helplessly: "Don't compare him to the children in the current plane. In the Xuan Tian Continent, a thousand years old is already very old."
She's mentally an adult; if she doesn't want to, you can't force her. Alright, now ask her master to properly accept her as an apprentice. Don't overthink it, don't worry about anything else.
Cang Jiyue felt a little aggrieved after hearing his lover's words. Over the years, he hadn't taken a liking to many people, but unexpectedly, so many people who suited his taste appeared in his original world.
What's wrong with wanting to take on more apprentices? But he couldn't ignore his wife's words, so he had no choice but to briefly explain the whole story to another apprentice he admired.
When Qingxu Venerable heard that such a powerful being wanted to take him as a disciple, he was willing to do so a thousand times over, as long as it wasn't him.
Moreover, with such a powerful master as his master, the young apprentice's life is more secure.
