Chapter 565: Wang Dashi! Huangshi Village! Cannibalistic Demons Must Not Be Spared! Two New Disciples!
The elder Daoist in purple beside him was none other than Celestial Master Zhao, one of the Four Celestial Masters of Mount Longhu. Entrusted by many, he had come to the Shanhai Secret Realm to capture Prince Qing.
Passing through this area, he sensed pervasive demonic qi. Thus, he descended through the clouds to intervene.
Unexpectedly, he encountered this scene.
Celestial Master Zhao smiled and said, “You’re clever, boy. And you, what’s your problem? Did a Daoist steal your rice or something?”
He first praised the black-clad boy, Xu Shiqi[1], then scolded the burly boy with a stern face.
“Daoist Master, our village has no Daoists, no one’s stolen our rice, and we don’t even have rice,” the burly boy replied earnestly.
Speechless, Celestial Master Zhao blinked. He hadn’t expected such a response, and a twitch appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“This is my brother Wang Dashi, he’s sixteen years old this year. Look at his strength, his size! In the future, he can serve tea, run errands, sweep the floor for you, master, no problem at all!” Xu Shiqi, the black-clad boy, said with a smile.
Li Yanchu chuckled silently. “You’re quick to claim me as your master, but I never said I’d take you.”
He just found the two boys interesting, but he didn’t actually want to accept them as disciples.
“Master, you are a Daoist immortal capable of traversing heaven and earth, slaying demons and suppressing evil! It is a blessing earned over three lifetimes, or rather, eight lifetimes, that we can follow you!”
“Master, where are you going? I know Gu’ao Peak very well, I can guide you,” Xu Shiqi added, implicitly acknowledging the master-disciple relationship.
