Fifteen minutes was really not much. It would pass soon.
Xue Fanxin knew that Guan Xiaoyan was sad, but she did not have time to comfort him now. All she could do was to tell him what to pay attention to as soon as possible. “Xiaoyan, don’t be sad. All banquets must end. We don’t belong here. We’ll have to go back sooner or later. Now that you’re already a cultivator and have the Body of Spirit Gathering, if you cultivate well in the future, we’ll meet again if we’re fated.”
“Can we really meet again?” A little hope ignited in Guan Xiaoyan’s heart. He knew that this hope was too small, but it was better than nothing.
As long as there was hope, there was something to anticipate.
“As long as you have the heart, we will definitely meet again. Your master must have something to tell you. I won’t take up so much time. Tell me first, are there any shops near the Azure Ox Villa?”
“Shops?” Guan Xiaoyan had yet to react and did not know why Xue Fanxin was asking about the shop, but he still replied honestly, “There’s a small supermarket in the Azure Ox Villa…”
Before Guan Xiaoyan could finish speaking, Xue Fanxin had already disappeared with a swoosh, heading towards the supermarket in the Azure Ox Villa.
Ye Jiushang knew what Xue Fanxin was going to do. He smiled helplessly and turned his gaze to Guan Xiaoyan. He took out a ring and handed it to him. “This is what I left for you. In this place, only you can use this thing. There are some entry-level cultivation techniques and a few spirit arts in the ring. Cultivate well in the future. With your spirit gathering physique, you can achieve something even in this place where spirit energy is scarce.”
“Master, what’s this?” Guan Xiaoyan took the ring Ye Jiushang had given him and realized that it was very small. He could not wear it at all.
However, even if he could not wear it, he casually placed it on the tip of his finger. Who knew…
“This… I can actually wear this ring?”
The ring actually automatically adjusted its size and was currently on his finger. It looked no different from an ordinary silver ring.
What shocked him even more was that he saw a bunch of things in the ring.
Could this be the interspatial ring written in fantasy novels?
Was he dreaming?
Ye Jiushang could not be bothered to explain the interspatial ring. He picked up the main point and said, “Time is limited. You have to remember what I’m going to say next. You can’t be anxious about success on the path of cultivation, nor can you have any evil thoughts. Otherwise, you’ll easily take the wrong path and become a demon. You’re the first disciple I’ve taken in. You have to set an example for your junior brothers behind you.”
“Master…”
“Don’t be in a hurry to speak. Listen to me. In ten years, I’ll try my best to come back and see you once. At that time, if your performance satisfies me, I’ll take you away.”
Hearing this, Guan Xiaoyan was extremely excited. “Master, is what you said for real?”
“Since I’ve taken you in as my disciple, I naturally won’t ignore you. But if you disappoint me, I’ll give up on you as my disciple.”
“Master, don’t worry. I won’t disappoint you.” With hope, Guan Xiaoyan’s mood immediately improved, and he became much more energetic.
Ten years… This was his master’s ten-year promise to him.
Ye Jiushang smiled. He had basically finished giving instructions. Everything he had yet to give was in his ring. Therefore, he had nothing to say now. He only took a few more looks at his first disciple.
He had said that he and Guan Xiaoyan were fated to be master and disciple. That was not a casual remark. They were indeed fated to be master and disciple.
However, he could still open up some of his disciple’s meridians…
Just as Ye Jiushang was about to open Guan Xiaoyan’s meridians, Xue Fanxin suddenly appeared. Because she had not controlled the direction well, she fell towards Ye Jiushang.
