"Not bad. Be my apprentice."
A crisp voice suddenly arose, like pearls landing on a jade plate.
Then, a young girl in purple appeared. Her eyes were bright and her teeth were white.
Seeing this, Ling Xian raised an eyebrow, "If you want to be my apprentice, shouldn't you tell me your name and capabilities?"
"I come from the Xuanji Region. My name is the Second Luo Xue. Capabilities?"
The young girl's face was somewhat arrogant, "I am an Ancient Talisman Master. I have the right to be your apprentice."
Hearing this, Ling Xian's eyes flashed with shock. He could tell that this woman wasn't old. He didn't think she was already an Ancient Talisman Master. It was no wonder she wanted to be his apprentice.
Normally speaking, those who reach the Ancient Talisman Master level have the right to be their apprentice. It was obvious that the young girl before him had an extraordinary background. On top of that, she was an Ancient Talisman Master. Taking her as an apprentice was not a problem.
Ling Xian shifted his gaze towards the beggar and smiled, "You are lucky. This lady wants to take you as her apprentice."
Hearing this, the beggar froze. To put it more accurately, the moment the Second Luo Xue said she was an Ancient Talisman Master, he was already stunned.
Though he was merely a beggar, he was obsessed with the Dao of Talismans. Naturally, he was no stranger to the Dao of Talismans.
To him, even a beginner Talisman Master was someone he had to look up to, let alone a Talisman Master!
Yet now, an Ancient Talisman Master said she wanted to take him as her apprentice. Why wouldn't he be shocked? Why wouldn't he be happy?
The beggar was so excited he was about to cry. His yellow face was full of joy and disbelief.
But the young girl's next sentence knocked him down into the abyss.
"Hey, hey, I never said I wanted to take you as my apprentice." The Second Luo Xue wasn't happy.
Hearing this, Ling Xian was a little startled. The beggar's expression was even more sluggish. He was dumbfounded by this giant gap.
"Didn't you say you wanted to take me as your apprentice?"
Ling Xian frowned, not understanding what this young girl was trying to do. Was it fun to give people hope and make them hopeless?
"Yes, I did say I wanted to take him as my apprentice." The Second Luo Xue nodded. Then, she said something that stunned Ling Xian.
"However, the person I want to take is not him, it's you."
At this, Ling Xian froze.
Ever since he started cultivating, he had met many powerful seniors, and many of them had expressed their intention to take him as a disciple. The closest one was Chun Qiu Zi.
Ling Xian had no doubt that if he had nodded, Chun Qiu Zi would have taught him everything he knew.
After all, his excellence was there for all to see. Many experts wanted to take him in as their successor.
Therefore, Ling Xian wasn't surprised by this. What surprised him was that a mere Master of Talismans wanted to take him as his apprentice.
Putting aside the fact that he possessed the inheritance of Diwu Fen Tian, just based on his current attainments at the Grandmaster level, was he someone that a Talisman Master was qualified to accept as a disciple?
Even the Master of the Talisman Tower didn't have the qualifications!
Therefore, Ling Xian shook his head and declined, "Sorry, I don't think I have the right to be your apprentice."
"If I say you do, then you do."
Second Luo Xue smiled proudly and said, "I saw you wiping away the runes with a wave of your hand. Although it's not a profound technique, it's something that can only be done with perfect control of runes."
"Therefore, you have the right to be my apprentice."
"I am someone who is destined to surpass the Fifth Immortal. To be able to become my successor is a great fortune that you've accumulated over several lifetimes."
Second Luo Xue continued to speak with arrogance and certainty. It was obvious that she was certain that Ling Xian would say yes.
But in the next second, she froze.
"Sorry, I am not interested."
Ling Xian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He thought this young lady was a little too interesting.
Ignoring how ambitious her goal was, even if she does surpass the Fifth Immortal in the future, right now, she was merely a Master of Talismans.
A mere Master of Talismans wanted to be the Master of a Grandmaster. Why wouldn't Ling Xian find this funny?
This was the biggest joke of the year.
However, Second Luo Xue didn't realize this. Her face was sluggish and full of shock. Then, her shock turned into anger.
Ever since she was born, nobody has ever dared to reject her. Naturally, she was embarrassed.
"Despicable fellow, do you know who I am? In the Xuanji Region, if I announce that I am taking in an apprentice, the door to my Clan will be trampled to pieces the next day! "
Second Luo Xue stomped her feet out of anger. She didn't think Ling Xian would reject her.
"The door to your Clan sure is of low quality."
Ling Xian grinned, "Plus, you said it yourself. That's in the Xuanji Region. This place is the Red Flood Region."
"You!"
Second Luo Xue's lungs were about to explode from anger, "I am a Master of Talismans. Do you know what a Master of Talismans is? If you miss this opportunity, you will regret it in the future! "
Hearing this, Ling Xian couldn't help but chuckle.
He finally understood. This young lady was very proud of her identity as a Master of Talismans. She kept talking about her identity as if she was very powerful.
Of course, the identity of a Master of Talismans was very honorable. If this was said to a normal person, they would be praised and exclaimed.
But was he a normal person?
To flaunt her identity before a Master of Talismans, wasn't that the same as playing around with a knife?
Ling Xian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Then make me regret it. But let me warn you, this person is very talented. It's the same if you take him as your apprentice."
"I've taken a fancy to you!"
Second Luo Xue hissed, "I will ask you one last time. Are you willing to be my apprentice?"
"I told you, I am not interested. Don't force me to say something worse." Ling Xian frowned, wondering why this girl didn't know what was good for her.
"Something worse?"
Second Luo Xue stomped her feet out of anger, "I sure want to hear what you have to say."
Hearing this, Ling Xian frowned. He really didn't want to embarrass Second Luo Xue. But since she didn't know what was good for her, then he had to fulfill her wish.
Therefore, he uttered out a statement that drove Second Luo Xue crazy.
"You have no right to take me as your apprentice."
At those words, Second Luo Xue went crazy. Ling Xian was speaking the truth. As a Master of Talismans, even the leader of the Tower of Talismans had no right to take him as an apprentice.
But Second Luo Xue didn't think so. She thought Ling Xian was mocking her.
Therefore, she was about to go insane from anger. She gritted her teeth, "You have no right? Do you dare to compete with me? I sure want to see what right you have."
"Sorry, I don't have the time."
Ling Xian glared at the girl and shifted his gaze towards the depressed beggar. He smiled warmly, "Don't be disappointed. It is her loss that she doesn't want you as her apprentice."
Hearing this, the beggar lowered his head and remained silent.
Seeing this, Ling Xian knew that he was hit hard. He couldn't help but frown. After a moment of silence, he pointed between the beggar's brows and imparted his knowledge and experience with Talismans into the beggar's brain.
Of course, he wasn't going to pass down his Talisman Techniques to outsiders. What he passed down to the beggar was his own experience. Despite this, it was enough for the beggar to use for the rest of his life.
Don't forget, he was a Master of Talismans!
