Although taking in a disciple was a big matter to promote the Flowing Cloud Sect, in Qian Ze's heart, promoting the Flowing Cloud Sect was far less important than Jiujiu.
He wanted Jiujiu to take in a disciple so that he could find a disciple to take care of Jiujiu and change Jiujiu's cold temperament a little bit. He didn't want Jiujiu to find a burden to worry about and tire herself out, only to find that it was all for nothing.
In Qian Ze's heart, the five spirit roots Chang Yuan was trash.
When Jiujiu's eyes were staring at Yun Xiu, Yun Xiu puffed out his chest and proudly waited for Jiujiu to choose him as a disciple.
Thinking that he would become the next disciple of the almighty Shui Yue who ascended, Yun Xiu's heart was filled with excitement. However, he didn't wait for Jiujiu to choose him as a disciple. Instead, he saw Jiujiu point at the back of the line, at Chang Yuan who was like a beggar with ragged clothes and a dirty face.
When Jiujiu pointed at Chang Yuan and took the initiative to take Chang Yuan as a disciple, Yun Xiu's eyes instantly widened. His head, which was originally raised high, instantly lowered. His face, which was buried in his chest, was distorted.
Why, he clearly snatched Chang Yuan's luck from the beginning, snatched Chang Yuan's mutated thunder spirit root, and even deliberately stole Chang Yuan from home and threw him to the side of the road to make him a beggar.
Chang Yuan was clearly no longer the genius youth in the original work, so why did Jiujiu still choose Chang Yuan and not him, the genius youth?
Other than the protagonist's halo, Yun Xiu couldn't think of any other explanation.
When he thought of the protagonist's halo, Yun Xiu instantly clenched his teeth. After cursing in his heart for being stupid, he became even more disgusted with Chang Yuan, the male protagonist of the original work.
Jiujiu, who had been carefully observing Yun Xiu, noticed the emotional fluctuations on Yun Xiu's side. She narrowed her eyes and once again looked at the youth who was shocked by her choice and had even started to cry because of excitement.
Tears washed the young man's face, revealing his snow-white skin under the dirt, making his originally black and clear eyes as clear as the sky after a heavy rain.
Jiujiu raised her hand and the young man suddenly floated up from the ground, passing through countless people and flying directly to Jiujiu. Jiujiu looked at Chang Yuan who was kneeling on the ground and looking at her with a pious expression. The corners of her mouth lifted slightly and she said, "From now on, you are the disciple of Shuiyue."
Although Chang Yuan did not know who Jiujiu was, he could infer from the attitude of the Flowing Cloud Sect's Sect Master, Qian Ze, towards Jiujiu that Jiujiu's identity was not low.
The reason why Chang Yuan came to the Flowing Cloud Sect was not because he wanted to cultivate to become an immortal, but because the Flowing Cloud Sect wanted to recruit some servants. He wanted to be a servant so that he could earn a living and not starve to death on the streets one day.
But what he didn't expect was that his spirit root was detected and then he was brought here.
Moreover, he actually became Jiujiu's disciple. Chang Yuan didn't know how to describe his feelings at this moment.
Qian Ze saw that Jiujiu had publicly announced that Chang Yuan was her disciple and sighed rather melancholically. He looked at Chang Yuan's black and white face that had been washed by tears and mottled traces of black and white. He couldn't bear to look directly at Yun Xiu who was kneeling on the ground and slowly said, "If you really like this child, it's fine to accept him. But he has five spirit roots, so it will inevitably be difficult for him to cultivate. Why don't you accept a few more disciples?"
After Qian Ze finished speaking, he looked at Yun Xiu who was kneeling on the ground again and pointed at Yun Xiu. "I think Yun Xiu is not bad. Why don't you accept him as well? The two disciples can cultivate together and be companions to each other."
Hearing Qian Ze mention his name again, Yun Xiu raised his head again and looked straight at Jiujiu, waiting for Jiujiu's answer.
Jiujiu turned a blind eye to Yun Xiu's expectant gaze. She summoned her long sword and gestured for Chang Yuan to stand on it. She said coldly, "If the sect master likes him, you can accept him yourself. I have one disciple and that is enough."
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she didn't even say goodbye and left on her sword.
Looking at Jiujiu's willful back, Qian Ze sighed faintly. He knew that Jiujiu was unwilling to accept Yun Xiu.
Seeing Yun Xiu's slightly gloomy face because of Jiujiu's disdain, Qian Ze simply accepted Yun Xiu as his disciple.
Although he wasn't a cultivator with thunder spirit roots, he was the sect master of the Flowing Cloud Sect after all. He had countless cultivation methods in his hands and any one of them could be used by Yun Xiu for the rest of his life.
However, even if Qian Ze accepted Yun Xiu as his disciple, in Yun Xiu's heart, he was still dissatisfied.
After all, his initial goal was to become Jiujiu's disciple. But now, Jiujiu still became Chang Yuan's master like in the book and even turned a blind eye to him.
The narrow-minded Yun Xiu naturally couldn't swallow this.
Because at this moment, he didn't have the ability to vent this anger. But Yun Xiu secretly swore in his heart that in the future, he would definitely make Jiujiu regret it for the rest of his life.
When Chang Yuan was less than a year old, he was thrown out by Yun Xiu and left to fend for himself.
But fortunately, Chang Yuan was blessed by the heavens. Although he was thrown out, he was adopted by an old beggar in the city because of his good looks.
Although the old beggar didn't have enough to eat or wear, he took very good care of Chang Yuan. It wasn't until Chang Yuan was seven years old that the old beggar passed away from illness.
After the old beggar passed away, Chang Yuan lived the life of a beggar.
But fortunately, although the old beggar passed away early, he taught Chang Yuan everything. So even if Chang Yuan was a child, he begged for the most things among all the beggars.
And Chang Yuan also knew the principle that an ordinary man was innocent, but treasuring a jade ring would arouse the envy of others. Whenever he begged for a lot of food, he would give the food to those beggars who didn't beg for food.
Originally, the beggars who were angry at Chang Yuan for stealing their business couldn't get angry because they were soft-spoken. After many days like this, even if Chang Yuan couldn't beg for food, there would be beggars who were willing to help him.
This time, Chang Yuan wanted to come to the Flowing Cloud Sect as a handyman. His travel expenses were pooled together by those beggars.
Chang Yuan was smart. Although Qian Ze only said a few words, he was able to piece together the facts from those words. For example, his five spiritual roots were useless. Moreover, Qian Ze felt that his existence would drag Jiujiu down.
Chang Yuan had been begging outside for years, so he was very clear about the law of the jungle. Therefore, even if Jiujiu took him away, Chang Yuan's heart was still fluttering in the air, and he was very nervous.
He was raised by the old beggar. If it wasn't for the jade pendant with the two words Chang Yuan engraved on it, he was afraid that his name would be Gou Sheng.
And after the old beggar passed away, he began to live alone. Although those beggars would be good to him, he knew in his heart that if it wasn't for the fact that he could always beg for a lot of food, those beggars wouldn't be willing to be good to him.
