There was no response from the True Heart Talisman, and what he said was true. An Qingli said, "If you don't want to worship me as your teacher, why are you here?"
Below, True Lord Mo Chen bowed his head again and said sincerely: "If Grandmaster Qingli will not give up, I am willing to serve the Grandmaster sincerely as a disciple."
An Qingli smiled and said: "My master has no shortage of disciples to serve. Moreover, serving disciples does not have the qualifications to receive the true inheritance of the master. The world of cultivation has always valued the inheritance of the master, and you should know it, Elder Mo Chen. Besides, it is not my intention to accept you.
It is the intention of the sect. Whether to accept disciples or not, and whether to teach sincerely or not, is all up to me, not you, nor the sect."
Zhenjun Mochen's face stiffened slightly, thinking about Qiu Xuanjing's suggestion, and then he cupped his hands and said: "I also know that this is a presumptuous move, but I don't want to betray my master. If the master has a request, it doesn't matter. I will definitely comply with it and will never do anything."
Regret."
An Qingli saw that the True Heart Talisman had no reaction, but he also knew that what this man said was true, and he was not a person with a lotus tongue, so he said: "If you don't want to formally become a disciple, just learn from me. It would be a godsend for you."
A great thing. There is a gap between the eighth and ninth grades. Once you cross it, you will gain both fame and fortune, and countless high-level spirits will be implanted in your arms. Do you think so or not?"
"Yes." Elder Mo Chen couldn't deny that this was a fact.
An Qingli said: "With such benefits, you and I are not relatives, so why should we benefit you instead of Master Chu, or other talented people from my An family?"
Elder Mo Chen blushed slightly and bowed his hands, saying: "What Grandmaster Qingli said is absolutely true. Therefore, I ask Grandmaster to make it clear. I will definitely follow it and live up to Grandmaster's teachings."
An Qingli smiled and said: "If you insist on serving me as a disciple, then you will not be considered a formal disciple in my name. When the time comes, I will accept another disciple, and you will not be able to call yourself a senior brother."
Elder Mo Chen said: "This is natural."
An Qingli added: "If one day I pass away or ascend, no matter whether you reach the ninth level or not, Xiaojing Lake will return to the Spiritual Medicine Peak, and the little red-haired fox will still be the master of Xiaojing Lake."
Elder Mo Chen said: "Xiaojing Lake is originally from the lineage of Grandmaster Mu Sheng, and I don't dare to live there."
An Qingli said again: "Moreover, you are not my official disciple. Once I pass away or ascend, all my experience in planting spiritual elixirs will not be inherited by you. Do you have any objection?"
Elder Mo Chen looked troubled and hesitated to speak. To a high-level alchemist, those high-level spiritual plants and experiences were more beautiful than countless spiritual stones.
"Then spiritual planting and experience..."
The True Heart Talisman reacted, and Elder Mo Chen was too embarrassed to continue speaking.
An Qingli said: "You only want to learn skills and don't want to formally become a teacher. Of course you can't inherit what I have. You should think it over carefully."
Little Huzi flapped his wings and took out the spirit beast bag, and followed: "What's so embarrassing? So far, you have learned the craft without paying anything. Why are you dissatisfied? Don't be too greedy!"
Elder Mo Chen closed his eyes and calmed down his thoughts, and then said firmly: "I don't want to betray my ancestor. I am not a formal disciple of the grand master. Those spiritual cultivation experiences... will be left to the younger brothers and sisters in the future, and it is entirely at the discretion of Grand Master Qingli.
I...I will go and understand the experiences of other seniors."
The True Heart Talisman didn't react much, and An Qingli praised: "Elder Mo Chen is a person who values love and meaning."
Elder Mo Chen looked aggrieved, looked at the young woman sitting on the seat, and replied sarcastically: "With such a temper, it is a great pity that I have no chance to meet Grandmaster Qingli."
"That's not necessarily the case." An Qingli added, "In addition to not being allowed to own anything outside of me, there are two other things I need you to keep your promise to."
"Grandmaster Qingli said it doesn't matter." Elder Mo Chen looked dejected. What could be more heartbreaking than losing Ling Zhi?
An Qingli said: "I'm teaching you that you should do things for me. First, during your lifetime, you should do your best to take care of Anjia. Anjia asks you for nine-grade elixirs and tries your best to match them. All the elixirs you refine will belong to Anjia.
.”
"This is natural. Regardless of whether I advance to the ninth level or not, I will definitely protect the An family for Grandmaster Qingli." Elder Mo Chen accepted happily.
"Secondly, Elder Qi Min, Qi Gao, and Elder Qi Xian Qi Si are all people protected by Grandmaster Mu Sheng and I. When the four of them ask for elixirs, they try their best to get them together. All the elixirs they refine will belong to them.
.”
"I must obey." Elder Mo Chen should be happy, but then his heart twitched. He heard that the meaning of the young master's words was similar to his last words.
Not great!
Elder Mo Chen usually talks little, but he is not stupid either. He quickly realized that this young master was afraid that he would go out and do his business again and not do his job properly.
An Qingli saw the change in Elder Mochen's face and said, "What are you thinking about?"
With the True Heart Talisman in his possession, Elder Mo Chen did not dare to hide it, so he tentatively said: "Grandmaster Qingli... are you going to go out and make a living..."
An Qingli smiled calmly and said: "There is nothing wrong with it, and I still leave the sect openly. Otherwise, why do you think I would agree to the sect and teach you as a disciple?"
Xiao Huzi added: "He is still an old apprentice who may not be well trained. Chu Yao and He are more qualified than you to be this apprentice."
Elder Mo Chen raised his hands and said, "Grandmaster Qingli is right, otherwise I wouldn't have the honor of being taught by Qingli himself."
An Qingli sat upright and said: "Now that I have said it, and you agree to it, then you will make an oath one by one according to what you said before, kneel down as a master again, and become a disciple who serves me by my side."
In the world of cultivation, age is not a factor; achievement comes first. Even if Elder Mo Chen is quite old, it is still necessary for him to kneel down.
Furthermore, the status of serving a disciple is actually quite low, similar to that of a servant from a wealthy family, except that the name in the world of cultivation is more respectable.
True Monarch Mo Chen chose to be a serving disciple despite being a formal disciple, because he really valued his original disciple very much, and to a certain extent, it was considered respectable.
An Qingli still sat high.
True Monarch Mo Chen raised his finger to swear an oath, knelt down and kowtowed three times, and offered tea with both hands.
"Serve my disciple Mo Chen and invite Master Qingli to drink tea."
An Qingli took the tea with one hand, opened the lid, took a sip, and accepted this disciple, just like she did when she worshiped Master Baiyao.
She and Master Bai Yao also have the same master-disciple status. It is not a formal master-disciple relationship, but they just treat each other as master-disciple.
An Qingli drank tea and called Mo Chen to stand up. Mo Chen crossed his hands in front of him. Although he was more than 1,600 years old, he was like a young disciple, bowing his head and respectfully accompanying An Qingli.
The ceremony was completed, and An Qingli was quite satisfied.
The door to the Grandmaster's Hall opens.
Qiu Xuanjing quickly looked inside, with a hanging heart, and finally calmed down.
He knew that Mo Chen wouldn't be flexible and wanted to serve as a disciple with a low status, but it didn't matter, just follow your heart and learn the skills.
However, when Ji Xiaopeng looked inside, his eyes immediately turned red.
"Master..."
Ji Xiaopeng called out with compassion. His arrogant master actually chose to become a serving disciple. It was so pitiful and heart-wrenching.
