Shen Xuzi did not answer, but instead asked:
"Boy, have you ever heard of the Child of Heavenly Fate?"
"This kid is not simple, he carries within him a very special bloodline."
"Thatâs the aura of the Great Wilderness. He is the chosen one from the Great Wilderness."
"The reason he seems ordinary now is because he has not yet awakened. After his awakening, if trained well, he would be extraordinary!"
"By then, I fear the entire cosmos will not be able to contain him!"
"A disciple like this, let alone in this era, even in the Immortal ancient times or even more ancient eras, many would wish for one but fail to find one. And here you are, youâve met one now. If you donât take him, are you just going to wait till it goes moldy?"
"And most importantly, this boy possesses the Heart of a Newborn."
"Do you understand what the Heart of a Newborn is?"
The voice of Shen Xuzi was filled with astonishment from beginning to end.
This made Chen Changâan pay more attention to the boy in front of him. If what Shen Xuzi said was true, it wouldnât hurt to take on a disciple.
"Well, from today, youâll stay on the mountain."
"Youâll be one of my disciples. Is that okay?"
Looking at the boyâs state, Chen Changâan couldnât help but shake his head, then he nodded.
"Tha...thank you, Imm...no, thank you, Master!"
Upon hearing Chen Changâanâs words, the naive-looking boy looked confused for a moment, then his face lit up with joy.
He knelt before Chen Changâan and bowed deeply three times.
"Disciple Chen Yi, paying respects to my Master!"
"Hmm, get up."
Chen Changâan nodded.
"Before going up the mountain, I have one more question for you, how long have you been out?"
"Master, a year."
"So far, itâs been a year since your disciple stepped out of the Great Wilderness," Chen Yi replied.
"A year?"
Hearing Chen Yiâs words, Chen Changâan was taken aback.
However, thinking about the location of the Great Wilderness, he immediately understood.
"Do you want to go back?" he then asked.
"Master, I..." Hearing Chen Changâanâs words, Chen Yi became anxious.
He quickly knelt down and said,
"Master, I donât request to go back. I want to stay with Master."
"Get up. Itâs not what you think."
Chen Changâan helped Chen Yi up and shook his head, saying,
"A motherâs thread, a childâs clothes."
"Since youâve been out so long, your mother and loved ones at home must be terribly worried about you."
"Luckily, I happen to want to go to the Great Wilderness."
"If you also want to go home, then come with me."
Chen Changâan explained the reason.
After hearing his words, Chen Yi let out a sigh of relief.
Then, he said gratefully to Chen Changâan:
"Disciple thanks you, Master!"
"Not necessary." Chen Changâan shook his head and then pointed to Lin Qingxue:
"This is Lin Qingxue, she is your Senior Sister."
"Sheâll help you to arrange for your living accommodations first. For the matter of going back, Iâll call you in a couple of days after Iâm ready."
"And Qingxue, you should also prepare, youâll come to the Great Wilderness with me."
"Yes, Master." Lin Qingxue responded.
"Yes, Master." Chen Yi also quickly responded.
"What about me, Brother?"
At this moment, Mao Ruxue became upset.
Because it seems that her name isnât on the travel list.
Unacceptable!
Chen Changâan said:
"You just stay here and guard the mountain."
"After all, this mountain will be entrusted to you in the future. It will serve as training for you to get used to it in advance."
"Brother, I donât want to." Mao Ruxue immediately dissented when she heard Chen Changâanâs words.
Who the hell will guard the mountain? And nonsense about this mountain being hers in the future.
Mao Ruxue really wondered if in her short life, could she actually outlive Chen Changâan?
Without even having to guess, she would probably have died of old age while her big brother remained youthful.
If she waited to become the Mountain Lord, wouldnât it be through Chen Changâan having to send her a death gift?
"Alright, if you want to come, then weâll all go."
Chen Changâan compromised, mainly because there really wasnât much worth guarding on the mountain.
"Okay, thatâs it for now. Meeting dismissed!"
In the end, with the dismissal command of Chen Changâan, the group dispersed.
However, at this moment, after Chen Changâan and the group dispersed, the audience who had been watching this scene began to buzz.
"My God! Damn, what did I just see? Chen Changâan has taken a disciple?!"
"Damn it! Why did Chen Changâan accept him? Is something not right here?"
"I donât know, but I recognize that person. His name is Chen Yi, a young boy who walked out of the Great Distance."
"It is said that Chen Yi has been saving money since a long time ago to leave the Great Wilderness."
"Finally, in his thirteenth year, he saved enough to venture out of the Great Wilderness."
"So, he stepped out alone into the Great Wilderness and faced all kinds of dangers on the way. He was even almost eaten by a wilderness demon. It was only with the help of a Cyan Bird of the Great Wilderness that he was able to leave."
"He seemed to have come to find a master to learn Daos and Divine Skills, but he was not very talented. He had worshipped many Sects along the way but none of them accepted him."
"I really canât understand why Chen Changâan would take him in."
"...."
Among the crowd, people began discussing Chen Yi becoming Chen Changâanâs disciple.
It wasnât surprising that they were so engrossed in the discussion, because it was indeed a shocking matter.
