Chapter 298 Huang Tianxiang Seeks a Disciple

Jinglan sighed and said, "Really? But I feel so sorry for her..."

Chu Xiaomu thought of the story between Bi Ye and the Flower Fairy. The two lovers were separated thousands of miles away for more than two hundred years on the absurd reason that spirits could not be together to avoid collisions. He could not help but feel indignant and said, "I heard that it was her father Cang Mu who did it. The more powerful these spirit kings and gods are, the worse they are!" After all, he was too young and did not fully understand the importance of the joints. After hearing Bi Ye say that Cang Mu separated him from the Flower Fairy, he felt that Cang Mu was not a good person. Then he said, "Next time I go back to Baihua Island, I will definitely pick up Sister Hua and let her and the general no longer be separated."

Before Jinglan could answer, someone behind them suddenly said, "You are talking nonsense. If you anger Cangmu, that will be a disaster."

The two looked back and saw a middle-aged man with a gaunt face, wearing a green robe, a purple belt around his waist, and holding a book in his hand, walking slowly towards them. He looked exactly like the young Huang Jieshi that Chu Xiaomu had seen on the top of the platform, and he was very different from the old man in the room.

Chu Xiaomu couldn't understand how this man could be an old man in his eighties or nineties at one moment and a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties at another moment, so he asked, "You...you are Huang Tianxiang?"

The man said, "I really don't deserve the title 'Tian Xiang'. It's Huang Jieshi from Wangmo."

Chu Xiaomu and Jinglan hurriedly saluted him.

Huang Jieshi looked at Jinglan for a few times and said, "It seems that I was right. Miss Jinglan's spirit body has indeed suffered some damage. The Purple Emperor Pill is just the right remedy."

Jinglan said softly, "Jinglan's leg disease has been cured, thanks to your guidance, sir."

Huang Jieshi shook the book in his hand and said, "It is not difficult to find the Purple Emperor Pill, but it is difficult to find it. Wang Moren told your father that finding it is not something that can be achieved through hard work, but depends on chance. You should thank this kid named Chu. If it were not for his good luck, your leg disease would never be cured."

Jinglan blushed and said softly, "Yes."

Huang Jieshi stared at Chu Xiaomu left and right but said nothing.

Chu Xiaomu felt very uncomfortable being looked at by him and asked, "Mr. Huang, what can I do for you?" He thought to himself, Miss Jinglan and I are just chatting and talking about gossip here, why did you suddenly come here? If you have nothing to do, just leave quickly!

Huang Jieshi did not reply to his words, but said: "You spoke rudely to the Lord of Cangmu Country, which violated the word 'respect' in Bicheng. Do you know that?"

Chu Xiaomu disagreed and said, "The general said that the word 'respect' means respecting the Lord Spirit King and the common people. But if the Lord Spirit King does something wrong, do we have to be respectful to him? There is no such thing in the world."

Huang Jieshi frowned and said, "You little brat, you only know how to speak rudely. You know nothing about this world. I advise you to be honest!"

Chu Xiaomu still had some respect for the amazing Huang Jieshi in front of him. He didn't want to argue with him, so he simply kept silent.

Jinglan asked again: "Sir, you came here suddenly. Is there anything wrong?"

Huang Jieshi said: "There are so many people in the city, it's inconvenient to talk. It just so happens that both of you are out today, and Wang Mo wants to say a few words to you."

The two said, "Please give us some advice, sir."

Huang Jieshi stared at Jinglan without blinking, and suddenly said, "Miss Jinglan, please accept me as your master."

The two were greatly surprised, and Jinglan was even more shocked and at a loss. She didn't expect that Huang Jieshi would take her in as his disciple as soon as he arrived, and he almost gave her a commanding tone. This was simply inexplicable and unreasonable.

Jinglan's fair and pretty face immediately turned red to the root of her neck, and she stammered, "I have to report this matter...this matter to my father...and he will decide..."

Huang Jieshi said: "Wang Mo came here to talk to you because Zhou Bo cannot know about this matter for the time being."

Jinglan did not answer. She was full of doubts. She didn't know why Huang Jieshi, one of the three great masters, wanted to accept her as his disciple, and he couldn't even let her father know.

Chu Xiaomu said: "Mr. Huang, you want to take Miss Jinglan as your apprentice, but you can't tell Zhou Zhongjun, this is a bit unreasonable."

Huang Jieshi glared at him and said, "This matter is of utmost importance. It will be too late if we delay any longer. Stop interrupting me, kid!"

Chu Xiaomu thought to himself, "When did you become so unreasonable? Are all the strange spirits and strange people in Cangmu Country so weird?" He couldn't help but say, "If Miss Jinglan doesn't want to be your disciple, aren't you forcing her?"

Huang Jieshi frowned and said, "It's hard to force others to do it, but I can't care about that right now." Looking at Jinglan, he said very seriously, "You just need to know that whether Bicheng can be preserved in the future and whether Cangmu Country can be preserved in the future depends on the thought of you, a little girl!"

Jinglan was terrified and said in a trembling voice: "This... this... how is it possible? How can I... how can I..."

Huang Jieshi said: "I just want to ask you, do you believe me or not?"

Jinglan didn't answer.

Huang Jieshi sighed, flipped through the book in his hand, looked up at the sky, and said, "It's hard for you to believe it for a while, and it's not your fault. Let me give you a day to think about it. Go to Ximen Pinghekou after dark tomorrow, and then you can give me an answer. It will be too late if you are late. Remember my words, whether Bicheng and Cangmu Kingdom can be preserved in the upcoming chaos depends entirely on your thoughts!"

Chu Xiaomu knew that Huang Jieshi, one of the three great geniuses, had a unique understanding of the astronomical geomancy. He must have seen something that ordinary people could not perceive, and had predicted something that would happen soon, so he said this. However, it was hard to believe that he said this so abruptly. So he said, "Mr. Huang, what will happen? You might as well tell Miss Jinglan directly. Whether she agrees to be your apprentice or not is also a matter of consideration."

Huang Jieshi glared at him again, looking quite impatient, and scolded: "What do you know? This is a secret! If I could tell it, why wouldn't I tell it?!"

Chu Xiaomu was very unhappy, thinking that you were still polite to me a dozen days ago, why are you so impatient now? I, Chu Xiaomu, have not done anything to offend you.

Jinglan seemed to have made up her mind. After a long while, she said, "Mr. Huang, I will listen to you and give you an answer later tomorrow."

Huang Jieshi was very happy to hear that her tone had softened, and said, "Well, it's settled. There will be a starburst in the western sky at 3:45 tomorrow evening, and you won't arouse suspicion if you leave the city."
