Chapter 967 - 218: Living at Another’s Mercy
Xie Ze had ambition, and Pei Wendong, who was only focused on Happy, quickly sought out a locally renowned teacher for Xie Ze to study under.
When Xie Ze heard that this person was not widely recognized and had not produced any noted disciples, he became even more reluctant in his heart.
Pei Wendong prepared a gift for the teacher and took him there.
Upon meeting the man, a balding old man with slightly crooked eyes, Xie Ze could not help but show his displeasure on his face.
It had come to Pei Wendong’s attention that Master Ouyang was very knowledgeable in this area, and he had also assessed Xie Ze’s learning. He was to study with Master Ouyang for some time, and when people from all over had returned, he would go to Capital Jingcheng to find a teacher.
Master Ouyang looked askew at the polite and cultured Pei Wendong and said he would decide whether to accept Xie Ze after examining his learning.
Pei Wendong was aware that teachers had these rules when taking on disciples, so he signalled to Xie Ze to answer well.
The result was that Xie Ze answered very smoothly, but Master Ouyang still shook his head and had the butler return Pei Wendong’s gift for the teacher.
