PDLP Chapter 72 Should I become your disciple?
Chapter 72 Should I become your disciple?
“Master Mudan, you can see the little girl’s condition now. It’s not safe to leave now, especially since her good friend Cheng Nan will be worried on the way back. For the sake of my disciple, let’s wait until she wakes up.”
Cheng Nan was bewildered. What was there to worry about? It wasn't the first time.
However, whatever his master said, he agreed and nodded in compliance.
Mu Sen was already in a bad mood, and when he thought about how the people from Tianyi Sword Sect wanted to take advantage of him, his face darkened, but he didn't say anything.
The ten people were divided into two sections, with five people on each side.
Seeing that the old man looked unwell, Geng Yu decided to be a dutiful and obedient disciple.
"Master, why would my uncle agree to let you bring these two along?"
Mu Sen glared at Zhong Qi and said irritably, "It's all because this brat told his master that three people from the Tianyi Sword Sect came to learn."
Zhong Qi looked completely innocent: "Uncle-Master, I'm doing this for the sect."
Haha, three people equal 30,000 mid-grade spirit stones, we're rich!
After paying off the debts, I can even make a big profit.
"What are you thinking, you brat? Don't think I don't know. I'm only letting you off the hook because your master is sensible this time."
Mu Sen couldn't help but grin as he thought about how his personal matter had turned into a sect mission, for which he could earn a reward of 100,000 mid-grade spirit stones.
Seeing the two little brats staring at him, he quickly composed himself, coughed lightly, and turned to look at Tu Shan.
Geng Yu looked suspicious. Was that old man trying to laugh just now?
That laugh looks familiar; it's the same laugh I hear every time my evil schemes succeed.
Geng Yu moved closer to Mu Sen, tilted his head back and whispered, "You old geezer, did your martial uncle give you some benefits?"
Mu Sen hurriedly denied it, looked around, and said guiltily, "You little brat, what are you saying? Do you think your master is that kind of person? This is a sect mission, and of course there are rewards for completing sect missions. If you don't believe me, ask those two."
The other two elders nodded hastily.
Zhong Qi stepped forward and whispered, "Uncle-Master, please set up a soundproof barrier. I have something important to tell you."
Mu Sen turned his head, gave Zhong Qi a deep look, and raised his hand to set up a barrier.
"Speak!"
"Uncle-Master, I'm sure the people from the One Sword Sect didn't learn it that day. They only mastered about 70% at most. When Tu Shan wakes up, send those people away to prevent us from spending spirit stones to let them steal the knowledge."
Uncle-Master, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that alchemy skills can't be learned by watching once. Find an excuse to stay and observe a few more times.
Tu Shan loves spirit stones so much, there's no way she wouldn't refine pills. Wouldn't that save us a lot of spirit stones?
Musen, I never expected you to be so cunning and wicked, trying to take advantage of this young girl. You're still too green.
Mu Sen shook his head: "This method won't work. Don't worry, I have an idea. Don't worry about it, or you'll turn into a senile old man."
Zhong Qi: I will never become like you.
Mu Sen removed the barrier, and Geng Yu immediately stepped forward to inquire.
Zhong Qi turned his head, and Mu Sen turned his head.
Geng Yu: "You two have a secret in common? Fine, don't tell me then."
He glared at the two of them, then angrily walked to the side to cultivate.
Seeing Geng Yu's cultivation level, Zhong Qi's sense of crisis rose rapidly. He was still just a pitiful little guy at the first level of Foundation Establishment, while Geng Yu was now at the third level of Foundation Establishment. The difference between them was too great.
Cultivation is essential.
Tu Shan rubbed his eyes, looked at the ten people in front of him, and stared expressionlessly at the three alchemists from the Tianyi Sword Sect.
Jian Wujian woke up, removed the barrier, and smiled, "Little girl, you're awake."
Tu Shan nodded and asked with a smile, "Why haven't those three left yet? Are they trying to freeload?"
Elder Shen said with a smile, "No, that's not true. I'm just worried about my young master."
Tu Shan waved his hand: "It's alright, you can leave now."
Elder Hu was about to say that Tu Shan was ungrateful, but seeing her expression that said, "What do you want to say? You dare to say it and try," he quickly shut up.
Jian Wu nodded: "The three of you go back first."
The three bowed to Jian Wu, while Elder Shen and Elder Chen bowed to Tu Shan and turned to leave.
The more capable a person is, the more respect they have for those who are more capable than themselves.
Elder Hu opened his mouth to explain, but after glancing at Tu Shan's smiling yet aloof attitude, he chose to shut up, cupped his hands, and turned to leave.
Mu Sen: I knew it. That little girl is shrewd. Trying to take advantage of her? Dream on.
Tu Shan walked up to Mu Sen and the other two, greeted them, and extended her hand.
Mu Sen gave her the three million mid-grade spirit stones he had prepared beforehand.
He scanned the storage ring with his divine sense, confirmed the number was correct, and without further ado, continued refining the pills.
This was the first time Musen had watched the entire process and he discovered that Tu Shan was truly a peerless genius.
Each spiritual plant is subjected to a different temperature during the refining process.
During the fusion process, each drop of medicine fuses at a different rate, requiring a strong sensory ability.
For someone her age to achieve this level of skill is truly the mark of a genius among geniuses.
No, even someone his age might not be able to do that.
"Alright, you two go back and study this carefully."
"Elder Mu, we would like to ask this fellow Daoist a few questions."
Jian Wu stepped forward and hurriedly stopped them: "Fellow Daoists, one million mid-grade spirit stones can only be used for one viewing."
Mu Sen was speechless. The abacus beads were practically jumping into his face. He inwardly scorned them.
"You two go back to the sect first. No need to say anything more or ask any more questions."
After the two left, Jian Wu and Mu Sen exchanged a glance and then turned to look at Tu Shan.
Tu Shan: Don't think that just because you don't say anything, I don't know what you're thinking.
Elder Mu wanted to take advantage, but there wasn't even a window, let alone a door.
As for Jian Wu's thoughts, she could guess a thing or two.
Hmph, none of them are easy to deal with.
He took out 30,000 mid-grade spirit stones for Geng Yu and 27,700 spirit stones for Zhong Qi.
"This is your commission, Zhong Qi. This is after deducting your sword. As for what you two owe me, give it to me!"
Zhong Qi took out seven hundred mid-grade spirit stones and gave them to Tu Shan, saying, "My spirit stones are limited."
Geng Yu took out the same amount of spirit stones and thanked him, saying, "Little mute, my life is very valuable, but I'm a poor wretch right now. Please make do for now. When I have spirit stones from refining pills in the future, I'll buy you nice things."
"Fine, I'll accept it, alright."
The promised increase in spirit stones was tenfold! I'm so happy!
"Cheng Nan, this is your commission, 30,000 mid-grade spirit stones."
"Elder Jian, this is your commission. Introduce more friends to us in the future. This is a great way to make money. We can all share the meat."
You drink the soup, I'll eat the meat.
Hahahaha!
Tu Shan thought to herself with a smile.
Mu Sen looked at Tu Shan expectantly, wondering, "Where's my share?"
Tu Shan: Which one is yours? What does it have to do with you?
Musen blinked. "Of course."
Tu Shan had a great idea and immediately took out 30,000 mid-grade spirit stones and handed them to Mu Sen.
"Elder Mu, would you like to earn more spirit stones?"
Musen nodded frantically.
"Then become my disciple. I have a way to earn a lot of spirit stones."
Musen got stuck.
"You want me to be your apprentice? Are you serious?"
"Of course, to have this great idea of earning spirit stones, you must become my apprentice so that we can cooperate better."
