Xu Qi Yuan has gone too far!
He had merely observed that Xu Qi Yuan possessed an innocent and sincere passion for the art of spirit arrays, and it was this sincerity that had prompted Ye Wushuang to share more of his knowledge without reservation. However, the young man’s audacity was beyond expectation. Not only did he wish to become Ye Wushuang’s brother, but now he even aspired to be his disciple.
To put it bluntly, within the vast and boundless Canghuang Sky, there were only a handful of individuals qualified to become disciples of Ye Wushuang, the Emperor of Heaven. Let alone within the boundaries of the Qingyun Empire on the Tianyuan Continent.
Xu Qi Yuan simply did not have the qualifications.
Seeing that Ye Wushuang remained unmoved, Xu Qi Yuan pleaded again, “Master Ye, even if… even if it’s just a nominal discipleship, that would be enough!”
This time, Mo Xuan and Mo Xiao were utterly astounded. They knew little about spirit arrays, only that Ye Wushuang, being at the fifth level of the Physical Training Realm, was able to construct a first-class spirit array, which was already inconceivable. Yet now, witnessing Xu Qi Yuan’s desperate desire to become Ye Wushuang’s disciple was nothing short of shocking.
“I have no intention of taking on disciples,” Ye Wushuang declared. “If you truly wish to learn about spirit arrays, I can offer you some guidance, but there will be no formal master-disciple relationship, nor any notion of becoming sworn brothers.”
“Fine, fine, fine,” Xu Qi Yuan said excitedly. “To receive guidance from Master Ye is more than sufficient.”
“Get up,” Ye Wushuang said.
Only then did Xu Qi Yuan rise to his feet, looking at Ye Wushuang with a smile. “I was just passing through Liu Yue City, planning to enter the Liu Yue Mountains to handle some affairs. When I heard Hall Master Mo Xuan mention you, I couldn’t help but feel curious. Fortunately, I stopped to meet you.”
Ye Wushuang replied, “Since Hall Master Mo Xuan has already told you about me, he must have also mentioned my current situation. I have many things to do and not much time to spare for guidance.”
“I am aware of Master Ye’s situation,” Xu Qi Yuan said. “The Yun and Qin families, with their narrow-mindedness, are nothing to be concerned about. If Master Ye wishes, I can help you eliminate the Yun and Qin families at any time.”
At this moment, Mo Xuan felt that Xu Qi Yuan had lost his mind, speaking such words. It was as if he had elevated Ye Wushuang to the status of a deity.
“There’s no need for that,” Ye Wushuang waved his hand dismissively. “I will handle my own affairs.”
Then, turning to Mo Xuan, Ye Wushuang said, “Hall Master Mo Xuan, I will come again tomorrow to integrate the final spirit array. In this way, I will have fulfilled my promise, and I can take the thirty thousand taels of gold with a clear conscience.”
Mo Xuan quickly interjected, “Since Master Ye is teaching spirit arrays to Xu Qi Yuan, thirty thousand taels of gold is not enough to compensate for your efforts.”
“He is who he is, and we are who we are,” Ye Wushuang said, clasping his hands together in farewell. “I am preparing to leave.”
“Master Ye, where are you going?” Xu Qi Yuan hurriedly followed, asking, “It’s not safe for you in Liu Yue City right now. Let me escort you back?”
Seeing Xu Qi Yuan following Ye Wushuang step by step, Mo Xuan and Mo Xiao felt overwhelmed.
“Uncle Xuan…” Mo Xiao couldn’t help but ask, “Is Ye Wushuang’s mastery of spirit arrays truly that formidable? Is it enough to make Xu Qi Yuan willingly submit?”
“I don’t know!” Mo Xuan shook his head. “But as far as I know, Xu Qi Yuan is the beloved son of Hall Master Xu Jinglun. He has shown exceptional talent in spirit arrays since childhood and has been taught by many master array artists within the Dark Soul Hall. If he is willing to submit to Ye Wushuang…”
Pausing for a moment, Mo Xuan continued, “Ye Wushuang must have experienced something extraordinary before he was thought to be dead.”
Mo Xuan was even more certain that with Ye Wushuang’s rise, the people of the Yun and Qin families would not be able to sleep peacefully.
At that moment, outside the Dark Soul Hall, Ye Wushuang strode out, with Xu Qi Yuan following closely behind.
“Master Ye, where are you heading?” Xu Qi Yuan asked with a smile.
“To the Sacred Alchemy Pavilion,” Ye Wushuang replied directly. “To purchase a pill cauldron and medicinal materials.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Qi Yuan was taken aback.
Purchase a pill cauldron and medicinal materials?
For what purpose?
No way! No way!
Could it be that Ye Wushuang, who is proficient in spirit arrays, also knows how to refine pills?
