The gazes of many elders had already landed on Du Shaofu in shock. The battle at the Tianwu Square had left all the elders in awe of Du Shaofu.
"Shaofu, there are no outsiders today. Sit down," Sima Xingtai said to Su Mo.
Sima Taxing said to Du Shaofu. It seemed that he was used to Du Shaofu's abnormal behavior.
A guy who relied on the cultivation of the complete Martial Lord Realm had actually defeated a Renhuang genius of the Martial King Realm at the Nirvana Realm. What could be more abnormal than this?
"Shaofu, sit down."
Elder Gu Qingyang sat beside Sima Xingtai and then said to Du Shaofu. However, his expression was somewhat abnormal today, with a hint of gloominess and helplessness.
"Yes."
After Du Shaofu nodded, he sat on the chair behind two rows of elders. He felt that his master, Elder Gu Qingyang's, expression was somewhat abnormal today.
Du Shaofu sat below. None of the elders had any objections. Many elders even nodded slightly to Du Shaofu.
As Du Shaofu sat down, Sima Xingtai looked at Elder Gu Qingyang and said, "Martial Uncle, you should speak."
"Okay."
Elder Gu Qingyang nodded slightly. Then, his gaze landed on Du Shaofu and said, "Shaofu, I have something to discuss with you today. One of your Martial Uncles has stopped accepting disciples a long time ago, but he intends to take you in as his last disciple. You can leave my sect and enter your Martial Uncle's sect to cultivate. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Du Shaofu immediately stood up. His clear eyes looked at Elder Gu Qingyang. His gaze was filled with doubt as he said, "Master, are you going to expel me from your sect?"
"Of course not."
Elder Gu Qingyang shook his head. He forced out a bitter smile and said, "I might not have told you clearly, but that uncle-master of yours is one of the peak experts of my Ancient Heaven Sect. His cultivation is even above mine. To tell you the truth, I haven't taken in many disciples in my life. Including you, there are only six of them. Your first five senior brothers and sisters are all extraordinary. But under my tutelage, none of them achieved anything. Facts have proven that it is indeed not suitable for me to accept any more disciples, lest I lead them astray and ruin their future.
Your natural talent is extremely high. If you continue to stay under my wing, I'm afraid you'll follow in the footsteps of your five Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters one day. So, if you join your Martial Uncle's wing, you'll naturally be able to benefit greatly in the future. Not long after, you'll definitely be able to become an expert. "
As Elder Gu Qingyang's words fell, many of the other Elders' faces were filled with emotions. Because of the competition between the disciples, many of the Elders had teased Elder Gu Qingyang many times over the years.
However, when they heard Elder Gu Qingyang's words, they could not help but feel emotional.
For the sake of the entire Ancient Heaven Sect, Elder Gu Qingyang was willing to give up such a talented disciple. This kind of noble character and unquestionable integrity was not something an ordinary person could do.
Afterwards, all the elders looked at Du Shaofu. That expert in the Munchū had spoken, intending to take Du Shaofu in as a disciple. This was a rare opportunity.
Countless people in the Ancient Heaven Sect wanted to become a disciple of that expert, but they could not get what they wanted.
Becoming a disciple of that expert was equivalent to becoming an expert whose name would shake the Central Plains in the future.
"A master for a day is a master for life. As the saying goes, the master leads the way and the cultivation is up to the individual. How can I change my master's wing?"
Du Shaofu looked at Elder Gu Qingyang with gratitude in his clear eyes. He said, "Disciple knows that this is master's goodwill, but disciple has already made up his mind. I will not change my master's wing."
There were ripples in Elder Gu Qingyang's eyes. He looked at Du Shaofu and scolded, "You little brat, if you become a disciple of your Uncle-Master, you will definitely benefit greatly in the future. If you continue to stay under my tutelage, you will only bury your talent. I know that I don't know how to teach you on the road of cultivation. If you still have me as your Master in your heart when you become a top cultivator in the future, I will be satisfied."
"Disciple has already made up his mind. A master for a day is a master for life."
Looking at Elder Gu Qingyang, how could Du Shaofu not know that although Elder Gu Qingyang was unable to guide him too much on the path of cultivation, Elder Gu Qingyang's love and care for him came from the bottom of his heart. His path of cultivation was different from others, and he also had the guidance of this big brother Zhen Qingchun. This kind of care and care was something that he would never forget.
Du Shaofu knelt on the ground and raised his head to look at Elder Gu Qingyang. He said, "Disciple does not kneel to the heavens, nor the earth, nor the emperor. I only kneel to my parents and master. Today, unless master expels me from the sect, disciple will not change his master's wing!"
"This kid …"
"Sigh, this kid, should I call him stupid or something …"
"If only I had a disciple like him."
Looking at Du Shaofu, some of the elders sighed in admiration, while others were envious.
"Elder Qing Yang, you've really accepted a good disciple this time."
Some elders sighed. When accepting a disciple, one must have outstanding talent and intelligence, but in comparison, one's character was more important.
Du Shaofu's character caused all the elders to be moved.
Her talent was outstanding, and her nature was firm and resolute. Such a disciple was actually accepted by Elder Gu Qingyang as his disciple.
"Sigh, if I had known, I would have chased after him no matter what."
Hu Sankun and Elder Qiang Mingze exchanged glances, their hearts aching. If they had known that Du Shaofu had such talent and character, how could they not have chased after him?
It was precisely because Elder Gu Qingyang had chased after him that he was able to accept such a disciple as his disciple.
"Shaofu, quickly get up. A man has gold under his knees, how can he kneel so casually? Get up!"
Elder Gu Qingyang's figure flashed like lightning, appearing in front of Du Shaofu in a flash. He pulled Du Shaofu up with both hands, his clear eyes rippling with tears.
"Master, are you not going to expel me from the sect?" Du Shaofu stood up, looking at the old man in front of him.
"Hahahaha …"
Elder Gu Qingyang laughed, patting Du Shaofu's shoulder, saying, "I, Gu Qingyang, am satisfied to be able to accept you as my disciple in this lifetime. In the future, not to mention your Martial Uncle, even if your Grandmaster wants you, I will not agree."
As his words fell, Elder Gu Qingyang looked at Du Shaofu, his clear eyes turning as he said, "However, you must remember to seek guidance from your Martial Uncle in the future. Do not delay on your cultivation path."
"This disciple understands."
Du Shaofu nodded, a slight smile appearing on his face.
"Sigh, fine."
Sima Taxing could only helplessly look at the situation, but his glassy eyes secretly flashed with admiration. He then said to the many elders in the hall, "Just now, Du Shaofu has formally become a disciple of Martial Uncle Gu Qingyang in the Munchū. From now on, Du Shaofu is the disciple of Martial Uncle Gu Qingyang."
"Congratulations, Elder Qingyang."
"Congratulations, Elder Qingyang."
Hearing this, all the elders present immediately congratulated Elder Gu Qingyang. Having accepted such a disciple, Gu Qingyang was much stronger than all of their disciples. They were all very envious.
"Congratulations, congratulations as well."
Elder Gu Qingyang beamed with joy, sweeping away the previous haze and becoming full of smiles.
After a while, only Sima Taxing, Du Shaofu, and Gu Qingyang were in the side hall behind the main hall.
"Du Shaofu, I called you here alone because there is one more thing I want to discuss with you."
In the side hall, Sima Taxing said to Du Shaofu.
Du Shaofu nodded and said to Sima Taxing, "Please go ahead, Senior Brother."
"Sit down first. There are no outsiders here. You are now my Junior Brother. You don't need to be too polite."
Sima Taxing motioned Du Shaofu to sit down, and then said to Du Shaofu seriously, "Before that, I have to ask you something first. You have to tell me the truth."
"Please ask, Senior Brother."
Du Shaofu nodded after sitting down, and there was no trace of fluctuation in his eyes. If he could tell the truth, he would naturally not hide it. After all, he was also a member of the Ancient Sky Sect.
"You have used the beast energy of the Golden-winged Roc, and it seems to be extraordinary. Is it related to the Golden-winged Roc?" Sima Taxing asked.
"Yes."
Du Shaofu nodded. There was nothing to hide. He said to Sima Taxing, "By chance, I obtained some things related to the Golden-winged Roc. I comprehended a lot of the Golden-winged Roc's beast energy and secret techniques. It can be considered to be somewhat successful."
"Sure enough."
Hearing this, Sima Taxing's serious face revealed a slight smile, and then he continued to say to Du Shaofu, "It seems that this time, you can't enter the secret area of the Munchū with Mu Ha, Feng Xiangyu, Shu Yang, and the others to cultivate."
"Why is that?"
Hearing this, Du Shaofu was stunned. Back then, they had agreed that if they could win, the sixteen of them would be able to enter a secret area of the Ancient Sky Sect to cultivate.
"Don't be too nervous. You can't enter that secret area to cultivate, but you can enter a sealed area of our Ancient Sky Sect. That sealed area might be of great help to you in comprehending the beast energy and secret techniques of the Golden-winged Roc."
Sima Taxing looked at Du Shaofu and said, "Our Ancient Sky Sect has always sealed off the news of that sealed area. Other than a very small number of people, no one else knows about it because that sealed area is related to the Golden-winged Roc."
