Chapter 108: Two Little Apprentices

“Wha—”

The little girl suddenly looked up, her face wet like a pear blossom in the rain, yet her bright, big eyes gazed in astonishment at Li Xiaojun, who floated in mid-air.

However, having just been lying on the ground and crying a lot, her entire face was dirty.

When she looked up at Li Xiaojun, she resembled a messy flower.

Seeing this, Li Xiaojun couldn’t help but feel a bit amused.

But he still held back!

“Are you two willing to become my apprentices? If not, I will have no choice but to kill you both,” Li Xiaojun said, lightly looking at the little girl and the smaller girl beside her.

“Yes, we are willing!” the little girl cried joyfully.

At that moment, there was no way they could refuse.

“And you?” Li Xiaojun turned his gaze to the girl with the nose deformity.

“I am willing too,” the little girl quickly bowed her head to Li Xiaojun.

“Since you both agree, then come with me.”

With that, Li Xiaojun waved his hand.

In the next moment, the two little girls flew up!

Soon, the three of them quickly soared away, disappearing into the sky.

After Li Xiaojun had vanished for a while, all the children in the courtyard finally came to their senses.

In the next moment, the sounds of crying, shouting, and cursing filled the air.

After a while, in a corner, an older child asked another older child, “With Chen Zishan gone, what are we going to do now?”

“What can we do? I don’t know. Chen Zishan could steal, but we can’t. Are we supposed to just wait to starve?”

“Sigh! We can only go back to begging like we used to.”

“What about those disabled kids?”

“If we can’t even take care of ourselves, why should we look after others? They are disabled; living is suffering for them.

If it weren’t for Chen Zishan insisting on taking care of them, we wouldn’t have to live in such hardship. With Chen Zishan’s stealing skills, we could have lived well.”

“Sigh!”

“Sigh!”

Meanwhile, Li Xiaojun had brought the two little girls to an inn.

Inside the inn, Li Xiaojun had two buckets of water brought in, allowing the two children to take a bath.

Then, Li Xiaojun took out two sets of spiritual clothes, changing their size with true essence so that the children could wear them.

After bathing and changing into new clothes, the two children underwent a remarkable transformation.

The two children who previously looked like beggars now resembled princesses.

Especially the three or four-year-old girl, Li Xiaojun directly used magic to fix her nose, and she became very beautiful and adorable.

The two children he took in were called Chen Zishan, the older one, and the younger one had no name, only a nickname, Qiya!

So, after thinking for a moment, Li Xiaojun named the little girl Li Ziqi.

Two days later, Li Xiaojun left the inn with the two little girls.

“Master, where are we going?” Chen Zishan asked Li Xiaojun.

“We are going to buy a house,” Li Xiaojun replied lightly.

He planned to settle down here and wait for the Cultivation Alliance to arrive.

He had already sent a message to the alliance.

However, this place was a bit far from the Human Race border, and even for those at the Great Ascension stage, it would take decades to fly over.

Therefore, for the Human Race to send a large force to reach this planet, it would take at least a century.

During this time, Li Xiaojun did not plan to continue exploring the star field and instead decided to take a break on this planet.

Li Xiaojun took the two little girls to a brokerage and spent millions to buy a small courtyard in the city.

It must be said that as the largest city of the Human Race, the housing prices here are outrageously high.

Fortunately, this amount of money was nothing to Li Xiaojun.

He could casually take out a superior grade spirit stone, which was worth millions.

And he had over ten billion such superior grade spirit stones in his system space.

Moreover, in addition to superior grade spirit stones, Li Xiaojun also had superior grade spirit stones, immortal essence stones, and more.

After settling down, one day, Li Xiaojun took out a testing crystal, ready to test the spirit root talent of the two children.

“Come over, I will test your talents,” Li Xiaojun called the two children over.

Hearing Li Xiaojun’s words, the two children obediently walked over.

“Place your hands on top,” Li Xiaojun instructed.

Upon hearing this, the two children placed their hands on the crystal ball simultaneously.

“One at a time, first test Chen Zishan,” Li Xiaojun said.

Hearing this, little Li Ziqi quickly withdrew her hand.

In the next moment, Li Xiaojun cast a spell.

However, the crystal ball remained completely still.

“Alright, Li Ziqi’s turn.”

Chen Zishan withdrew her hand, and then Li Ziqi placed her hand back on the crystal ball.

After a moment, Li Xiaojun sighed.

Neither of these two children had spirit roots for cultivating immortality.

After thinking for a moment, Li Xiaojun took out another crystal.

This crystal was obtained after he killed the Undead Grand Sorcerer.

A single crystal can test whether a person has magical talent.

Li Xiaojun knew that magic and cultivation were completely two different paths of training.

Therefore, he thought that someone without cultivation talents might still possess magical talent.

Li Xiaojun had also studied magic books and had some basic understanding of magic.

“Come, Zishan, place your hand back on the crystal,” Li Xiaojun instructed Chen Zishan.

“Okay.” Chen Zishan nodded and placed her hand back on the crystal ball.

Li Xiaojun cast a spell.

After a moment, the crystal ball lit up, emitting a light green glow.

“Not bad, you have magical talent,” Li Xiaojun said to Chen Zishan.

Hearing Li Xiaojun’s words, Chen Zishan was overjoyed.

“That’s great!”

In that moment, a glimmer of hope appeared in Chen Zishan’s eyes, mixed with some hatred.

She remembered some things from her childhood.

“Dad, Mom, I have hope to take revenge for you. Wait for me, I will definitely learn magic well from my teacher…” Chen Zishan silently made a firm resolve.

Just as Chen Zishan was making her silent vow, the crystal ball emitted light again.

However, this time the emitted light was red and very dazzling.

“Not bad, you also have magical talent.”

Li Xiaojun smiled as he patted little Li Ziqi’s head and then put the crystal ball away.

“Master, can I learn magic too?” Li Ziqi looked at Li Xiaojun with great excitement.

“Yes, you both can learn magic,” Li Xiaojun nodded.

“That’s amazing! I can learn magic! I’m going to be a magician!” Li Ziqi exclaimed joyfully, bouncing up and down upon realizing she could learn magic.

“Master, when will we learn magic?” Chen Zishan looked at Li Xiaojun with anticipation.

After spending these days together, Chen Zishan understood that her teacher was a good person.

Last time when he troubled her and said he would kill her, he was testing her.

If she hadn’t passed her teacher’s test last time, she probably wouldn’t have the hope of becoming a magician today.

Hearing Chen Zishan’s words, Li Xiaojun waved his hand and said, “There is no rush to learn magic. You both don’t know how to read yet, so you need to learn to read and write first.”

“I will find a teacher for you tomorrow so you can learn to read and write. Once you know all the characters, I will teach you magic,” Li Xiaojun told the two children.

The reason he said this was mainly because he only obtained a few necromancy spells from the Undead Grand Sorcerer.

He certainly wouldn’t teach his two apprentices necromancy, so he planned to find some other magic books.

Based on the testing results, Eldest Disciple Chen Zishan had wood magic talent, while the younger disciple had fire magic talent.
