Strongest Immortal Emperor in City - C2 You're Not Qualified to Be My Apprentice
C2 You’re Not Qualified to Be My Apprentice
“What?” The girl was dumbfounded as she stared at the old man. She blurted out, “Grandfather, he actually dares to disrespect you. Even if I kill him, it won’t be a problem!”
“How dare you!” the old man roared with extreme anger, “I want you to apologize to him! Now!”
The girl was frightened by her grandfather’s sudden anger. She was stunned for a moment and realized that her grandfather was not joking with her. She put away her arrogance and looked at the indifferent Ye Chen. Then, she reluctantly apologized, “I’m sorry.”
The old man’s face was full of anger. “You have to call him senior!”
By now, the girl’s tears were welling up in her eyes due to her grievance, but she still held back her anger and said lowly, “Senior, I’m sorry.”
At this time, the old man turned to Ye Chen and apologized humbly, “Senior, Mengyue is my granddaughter. I didn’t educate her well. Please forgive her.”
Ye Chen didn’t say anything back. He just ignored him and closed his eyes again.
When the girl saw this, her temper was about to explode again, but she was scared stiff by the fierce look of the old man towards her.
Then, the old man’s tone became even more humble as he said, “Senior, I am the patriarch of the Shen Family of the Calm Sea. When I was young, I heard my grandfather say those identical words you just said. However, my grandfather never explained it to me in detail. If senior doesn’t mind, can you explain it to me? If senior is willing to answer my questions, in the future, if senior needs anything, the Shen Family will do everything in our power to help you!”
Hearing this, Ye Chen finally opened his eyes and looked at him intently. Then, using the few amount of Spiritual Qi he had just absorbed, he sealed the three of them inside. Only then did he opened his mouth, but his expression was as indifferent as usual as he spoke, “I have already made myself clear. That is to say, if you still haven’t reached dark power when you are twenty years old, you will never become Martial Arts Master in this lifetime.”
After saying that, Ye Chen looked at the girl again and said with a sneer, “Your granddaughter should be already in her early twenties, right? She has just reached bright energy. I don’t think she would be able to reach inner strength release even when she reaches your age.”
Listening to his explanation, the old man was shocked!
This young man was indeed powerful!
Not only could he hear the sound produced by his inner strength, he could also say the identical words what his great-grandfather had said. What was even more amazing was that he could clearly see the situation between him and his granddaughter. From this, it could be said that he was an expert and a true expert at that!
Martial arts was not like cultivation. Its method was to continuously temper the body. Hence, by looking and sensing, Fighters could not guess the enemy’s realm. Only by fighting with the enemy, one could know the level of his enemy’s cultivation. This young man was actually able to see through his realm without even fighting. He might be a Martial Arts Master!
Oh my god!
The old man already could not hold back his excitement and shock in his heart. The old ancestor of the Shen Family was a famous merchant a few hundred years ago. He had a lot of money, but the old ancestor spent fifty years as a subordinate of a Martial Arts Master. He even took out all of his assets to build a grand training hall for that Martial Arts Master. Only then did he get a share of that man’s martial arts technique.
From that day on, the whole Shen Family went from an ordinary family to a unique one that practiced martial arts. Their family had been respected and flourished for hundreds of years.
However, in the past few decades, the members of the Shen Family had regressed continuously and so, no one in the family could progress up to become a Martial Arts Master ever again!
Now, there was an expert sitting next to him who was most likely a living Martial Arts Master. How could this not make him excited?
Immediately after, the old man said humbly, “Senior, I am Shen Tianming. Can you teach me a thing or two? If possible, the Shen Family is willing to do anything for senior to repay your kindness!”
Ye Chen’s expression was as cold as ever as he responded indifferently, “Opportunities cannot be forced. What should come will come naturally.”
To Ye Chen, he really did not care about these Fighters or whatever, but the old man’s attitude made him quite comfortable, so he did not completely reject him.
The old man obviously wanted to improve his level, so he wanted him to teach him. In fact, this would depend on his mood. If he was in a good mood in the future, it was not impossible either.
When the old man heard this, he didn’t know whether he should be happy or worry. However, he was slightly happy since Ye Chen’s words had given him some hope, although he was worried about whether Ye Chen would give him a chance or not.
Then, he hurriedly begged, “Senior, I want to ask for your favor for one more thing.”
“What?” Ye Chen frowned. He hadn’t even accepted his request and now, he wanted to ask for one more thing?
Shen Tianming determinedly said, “I would like you to teach Mengyue and make her your student.”
In Shen Tianming’s opinion, if he could befriend someone like Ye Chen in any way, it would bring great benefits to the Shen Family.
If he could guide his granddaughter, she might have a chance to become Martial Arts Master, that would be of great help to the entire Shen Family as it would open new opportunities in the future, generation after generation!
When he said this, Shen Mengyue was shocked and hurriedly called out, “Grandfather!”
Ye Chen revealed a faint smile as he said, “Aren’t you afraid that I will harm your granddaughter?”
Shen Tianming nodded and said, “Indeed, I am afraid. But according to my judgment, I don’t think you are that kind of person.”
Ye Chen turned to glance at Shen Mengyue, then shook his head and said, “She is not qualified to be my student now. Let’s talk about it in the future.”
Shen Mengyue had been the young miss of the Shen Family ever since she was born. She had never heard someone say something like that towards her. She immediately felt extremely humiliated and got furious. She coldly snorted and retorted, “Who is willing to be your student? Dream on!”
Sighing, Shen Tianming begged, “Even if you can’t take her as your disciple, please take care of Mengyue.”
This time, Ye Chen nodded. “Alright then.”
Shen Mengyue was annoyed by his arrogant behavior. No one had ever dared to act like this in front of the Shen Family. This young man was only in his twenties, yet how could he be so arrogant?
Shen Mengyue couldn’t help it anymore and blurted out, “Grandfather, don’t be fooled by this brat. How is he a senior expert? I am sure that he’s just a swindler who is pretending to be mighty!”
“You can’t be rude!” Shen Tianming immediately shouted again and gave Shen Mengyue a stern look.
Shen Mengyue was so angry that her chest kept moving up and down violently. However, in front of her grandfather, she did not dare to say anything more.
She lowered her head and pursed her lips, habitually taking out a pendant from her pocket and playing with it in her hand.
The accessory of the pendant was a crystal bottle and inside it was a small dried purple plant, quietly floating in it.
With a sharp pair of eyes, Ye Chen could tell at a glance that this thing was actually a medicinal spirit herb which was called Ice Ji Orchid that could be used to cultivate Ziyun pill!
