He stroked his head, looked at him, and said, "I like it very much."
He stared at Ye Yunlan for a long time. Seeing that Ye Yunlan's attention was still on the flower, he suddenly said in a hoarse voice, "Immortal, you promised … to give me a reward."
Ye Yunlan's fingertips paused. He remembered how Shen Shu looked at him with sparkling eyes in the Yuntian Palace.
"You …" He couldn't help laughing. His fingertips moved away from the flower. He straightened up and faced Shen Shu, saying, "Tell me, what reward do you want this time?"
Shen Shu said without hesitation, "I want to ask Immortal to accept me as your disciple."
Ye Yunlan was stunned.
He didn't expect Shen Shu to want this.
Acknowledging a master and accepting a disciple was a very important thing in the cultivation world.
In a sense, the relationship between a master and a disciple was even closer than blood ties. Most cultivators had very long lives. The blood ties in the mortal world lasted no more than a hundred years. However, the ties between a master and a disciple in the cultivation world could last a cultivator's entire life.
Ye Yunlan had never accepted a disciple before.
Therefore, he didn't know what kind of responsibility a teacher had to bear, how to teach, and how to properly guide a person onto a path that was suitable for him or herself.
His path in his previous life was too bumpy. He had crawled through thorns and sharp blades with blood dripping.
He was covered in cuts and bruises.
He didn't want anyone to walk the same path as him.
Moreover, in this life, he had already decided not to have any ties with the mortal world. He wanted to live a quiet life.
Ye Yunlan was silent for a long time. Then he said, "Why do you suddenly want to acknowledge me as your master?"
"I heard from others that in the cultivation world, master and disciple are the closest relationship besides Dao companions," Shen Shu said seriously, "I want to be … someone close to you."
Ye Yunlan didn't say anything.
Seeing that he didn't answer for a long time, Shen Shu continued seriously, "If you accept me as your disciple, I will definitely listen to you."
"Whatever the Immortal Monarch wants me to do, I will do it."
"I can help you take care of the flowers and plants, clean your house, and … find more flowers for you."
"Shen Shu." Ye Yunlan suddenly interrupted. "You said you wanted to take me as your master, but until now, you've only said what you can do for me, but you haven't said what you want me to do for you."
Shen Shu was stunned.
Ye Yunlan let out a low sigh.
"Acknowledging a master and accepting a disciple is not as simple as you think." He said, "Although I saved your life in the Mystic Realm, I've already said that I don't need you to repay me. If you only want to acknowledge me as your teacher out of gratitude, there's no need for that. There are many people in Tenzong who can be your master, and they can teach you much more than I can. "
Shen Shu said, "But I … only want to be the Immortal's disciple."
Ye Yunlan had already seen his stubbornness from the Snow Zhanhua incident, so she wasn't surprised by his words. She only said indifferently, "Now that I can't use my spiritual power, I'm considered a cripple in Tenzong. If you acknowledge me as your master, everyone will laugh at you for acknowledging a cripple as your master. "
Shen Shu was confused. "What does it have to do with me if others laugh at me? Besides, Immortal … is not a cripple. "
"I've seen Immortal's sword." He said, "When Immortal carried me out of the Mystic Realm, he used his sword to cut through the obstacles on the way … The sword light was dazzling and brilliant, it was … the sword technique of an immortal from the Ninth Heaven."
He said seriously, "I really want to learn it."
Ye Yunlan's hand tightened around the Missing Shadow Sword.
In her previous life, everyone said that Ghost Rakshasa's sword technique was the sword technique of vengeful ghosts from hell, and that the Shura Sword he wielded was an extremely evil sword of slaughter, soaked in the wails of countless wronged souls.
But Shen Shu said that his sword technique was the sword technique of an immortal from the Ninth Heaven.
After a long silence, Ye Yunlan finally relaxed.
"If you just want to learn the sword technique, I can teach you when you come over," he said. "As for other things … let's talk about it later."
