Chapter 1371: Taking Disciples
Chapter 1371: Taking Disciples
Today marks the release of the new book "Rebirth Era Strong Wife"—hope it will receive everyone’s support and love!
Infinite Daoist Monarch was at a loss, "Friend Huai’en.
Bai Xinghe, go apologize."
"Patriarch."
"Apologize for the trouble you just caused."
Bai Xinghe dared not disobey. He was someone capable of adapting to circumstances, inwardly resenting the situation: the losses his family suffered were significant, yet he still had to apologize?
At this moment, Tan Shaoting also emerged from the array, the oppressive aura of his Golden Core Stage no longer present.
Everyone looked at him with new eyes; this young man is destined to be remarkable in the future.
"My apologies, friend. I was overwhelmed by grief earlier, causing me to act in that manner. Please forgive me.
Consider this a gesture of goodwill, I hope you accept it."
Su Yuanyuan sneered. She was now at the bottom rung, anyone could step on her. Did he think that offering a little something could smooth things over?
Though thinking this, her face showed none of it.
She could understand the thoughts of the two Divinity Transformation Daoist Monarchs; though it wasn’t much, the current thoughts were sufficient.
She realized she had taken a considerable loss this time.
"No need, we cannot afford this."
Tan Shaoting understood what had happened. He was filled with anger, even towards himself, questioning why he chose to upgrade now, putting his wife and child in danger?
Bai Xinghe was utterly humiliated and felt even more hatred. The less Yuanyuan was angered by him, the more his fury grew.
Xingtian was adept in handling situations. Knowing that remaining stuck like this wouldn’t work, he hurried over.
"Young friends, my deepest apologies. Please understand, the Bai Family patriarch’s sudden passing naturally led to Bai Family Master’s behavior being understandable.
Young friends, here is my token of goodwill, also congratulations to you."
Xingtian’s words were eloquently put, and Su Yuanyuan falsely smiled, never one to feel wronged by mere words.
"Thank you for the kindness, Hierarch. We realize that unearned reward is inappropriate; we admit we were outmatched. Let’s consider today settled."
Su Yuanyuan referred to today, not the future. She was vengeful; how could she possibly let such grievances go?
Fortune turns around, there will definitely be a chance for revenge.
Both were rejected by Su Yuanyuan.
Zhu Huai’en led Qi Hao and Qi Xuan over. "Let’s go."
Liu Xiaozhu swiftly released the sect’s flying boat, and Tan Shaoting secured their flying boat as well.
"Wait a moment, Friend Huai’en, I have questions for these young friends."
"Ask."
Su Yuanyuan and Tan Shaoting turned respectfully, waiting for Infinite Daoist Monarch’s inquiry.
"Did you notice anything unusual?"
Both shook their heads, then Tan Shaoting spoke.
"Patriarch, we weren’t anxious at first, then suddenly felt sorrow, and it started raining outside, so I activated the protective shield.
After that, I don’t know. I didn’t witness any bullying of my wife and child."
Infinite Daoist Monarch furrowed his brows, continuously calculating without gaining any clarity.
The death of a Divinity Transformation Stage cultivator, followed by the appearance of Heavenly Cry, indicated it wasn’t an ordinary end of life due to age. But why were there no traces left in the world?
They hadn’t found anything; the sole clue was Bai Fengjiao’s approach with murderous intent.
"Did you get it all sorted out?"
Infinite Daoist Monarch nodded helplessly. "Friend Huai’en, since you’ve come to the Independent Practitioner Alliance, why not come in and reminisce?"
"Not necessary."
After speaking, Zhu Huai’en led the two little ones onto the flying boat.
Su Yuanyuan and Tan Shaoting bid farewell to Infinite Daoist Monarch and Xingtian, then also boarded the flying boat.
Liu Xiaozhu had sent a message to Pan Xiu Chen. Shortly after receiving a response, he instructed them to wait in place.
Zhu Huai’en observed Tan Shaoting and Su Yuanyuan, "There is a mentor-disciple fate between these two children and me."
Tan Shaoting saluted, "Thank you, patriarch, for your favor. Qi Hao and Qi Xuan being accepted into your guidance is their fortune.
Though young, they already have their own ideas. We as parents prioritize the children’s opinions."
Zhu Huai’en nodded. Qi Hao and Qi Xuan ran over to Su Yuanyuan, "Mother."
Su Yuanyuan knelt down to meet the two children at eye level, "What have you both decided?"
"Mother, I asked the master. He said he is a very powerful sword cultivator," Qi Hao said joyfully.
"Mother, we want to be sword cultivators, wander the world with swords and stand up for justice."
Su Yuanyuan was exasperated, "Who told you this?"
"My sister, of course. She said she also wants to become an excellent female sword cultivator in the future. We five siblings will adventure through the pugilistic world together."
Su Yuanyuan resignedly ruffled Qi Xuan’s hair. She couldn’t say her daughter’s words were wrong, only reminded the two to listen to their master.
"Mother, we don’t want to follow the master back, we miss big brother and second brother."
Su Yuanyuan nodded, thinking the same; once the two young ones had become disciples, meeting their brothers would become difficult.
She patted her sons on the shoulder, standing up, "patriarch, we’d like to visit Sword Sect and Medicine Sect to see the children."
Zhu Huai’en nodded, "Alright."
As he spoke, he beckoned Qi Hao and Qi Xuan to join him.
The two little ones smiled as they ran to their master.
Zhu Huai’en took out two jade pendants and hung them around their necks.
Then, he touched Qi Hao and Qi Xuan’s foreheads with his fingers.
Su Yuanyuan instantly realized these were protections Zhu Huai’en offered for the children.
"I’ll be waiting in the sect for your return."
"Yes, master."
After finishing, Zhu Huai’en vanished, leaving the little ones gazing enviously.
"Dad, when will you be able to do that? When we return, make sure Master lets us experience it."
Tan Shaoting didn’t know how to answer his son; he also wished to reach Divinity Transformation soon.
Sigh, wishing for that was too far off; best to focus on cultivation and hurry to form their Nascent Soul.
Liu Xiaozhu felt mixed emotions, learning that the master intended to have Sword Peak’s Master Tan take the children, yet they swiftly rose to become the master’s peers.
The family of four huddled together, whispering.
Liu Xiaozhu fretted over the generational disputes.
Pan Xiu Chen and the others, unaware of developments, received the Master’s voice transmission, sensing that something significant must have happened, prompting him to lead the remaining seven quickly away from Bishui City.
Once more hearing from his Master’s transmission, instructing them to wait.
The eight climbed aboard the flying boat and saw Tan Shaoting’s family.
"Brother Tan—wait, how did it become Master Tan?" Pan Xiu Chen was extremely surprised.
"Just ascended."
"Was that Three-nine Thunder Tribulation yours, Master Tan?" Pan Xiu Chen felt regretful for not witnessing it.
The other four quickly came over to congratulate Tan Shaoting.
They were all in late-stage Foundation Establishment, yet hadn’t touched the threshold of Foundation Establishment Perfection. Now learning of bone age thirty-plus and already having formed a core!
"Master Tan, could you share some insights on core formation?" Pan Xiu Chen asked playfully.
Tan Shaoting wasn’t stingy, inviting them to sit down.
