Zhou Cang could no longer hold back, his chest tight and aching.
"Remember, you darn horse, you're just a horse. Why do you refuse me, a peerless master?"
Dao Li spoke out righteously, "Neeeigh, neeeigh!"
Zhang Xuan translated, "It says it wants to cook for the young master and serve him!"
Zhou Cang felt an even sharper pain in his chest.
I offer to make you a direct disciple, and you refuse just to cook for this guy?
Got no ambition, have you?
"This Elder Zhou, right, it's just a horse, sometimes I even ride it. Let's just drop this matter!"
Seeing that Dao Li truly did not wish to become the opponent's family member, Zhang Xuan spoke up.
Zhou Cang found it hard to catch his breath.
You want to ride my disciple?
After a moment of thought, he shook his head and said, "It wasn't easy finding a suitable disciple for myself, how can I give up... Although it's currently a horse, with higher cultivation, it can also transform into a human!"
The creator of Fox Charm Destiny at Qingqiu Mountain was similarly a fox that entered the path, and didn't they become renowned throughout the heavens?
Although this fellow is currently a horse, once its cultivation is high enough to transform into a human, it might well become a true culinary god!
"You've heard it too, Elder Zhou is willing to take you as his disciple, it's a boon for you. Choose quickly!"
Although this guy had left, lacking someone to cook and serve, it was something he could overcome with some effort.
"Neeeigh, neeeigh..." Dao Li looked at them with big, pleading eyes.
"Don't feel aggrieved, Elder Zhou is a renowned figure of his time, taking you as a disciple also involved a great decision..."
Seeing its expression, Feng Yuanping said helplessly.
He knew very well how proud this old friend was; numerous experts waited at his doorstep for months and might not even get to taste the food he cooked personally.
Now he's humbly asking a horse to be his disciple, and here you are, still posing... Unbelievable!
"Such an expert, who would normally take an animal as a disciple? Agreeing to it is already rare enough..."
Miao Hengsheng snorted coldly too.
The words had not even finished when they heard the sudden urgency of the bell above.
Then, a few figures appeared at the entrance of the grand hall, striding in.
"Another, another expert?"
Qian Yuhuan's lips trembled.
What's with today? Experts are coming down like dumplings, all dropping in?
While wondering, he saw Miao Hengsheng, Feng Yuanping, and Zhou Cang's expressions change as they hastily moved forward to greet an old man.
"Miao Hengsheng (Feng Yuanping, Zhou Cang) pays respects to the Immortal Supreme!"
The three bowed and greeted as perfectly obedient schoolchildren.
The old man showed a hint of confusion, "What brings you all here?"
With an awkward expression, Feng Yuanping did not know how to answer when he heard Zhou Cang speak from the side, "Replying to the Supreme, we came in search of the Seven-Section Worm..."
"Seven-Section Worm?"
Emperor Changsheng nodded, "That indeed is worth your effort!"
Walking forward, he soon stood before them and his gaze fell on Qian Yuhuan, "Are you the leader of Wanxiang Sect?"
"Yes!" Qian Yuhuan quickly bowed and greeted.
Though not knowing how powerful this person before him was, the reverence shown by Zhou Cang and others indicated he must be a pinnacle figure of this era.
Immortal Supreme looked around, "What happened to the adjacent Heaven Mandate Hall? I just wanted to visit someone there but found it has turned into ruins!"
"Predecessor wanted to go to Heaven Mandate Hall?"
Qian Yuhuan's eyelids twitched, why did this sound so familiar, where had he heard it before?
Immortal Supreme nodded, his gaze distant, "Since you all are so close by, I have something to inquire. About two timings ago, was there anyone in Heaven Mandate Hall undergoing an assessment?"
Realization dawned on Qian Yuhuan that this person's purpose seemed similar to that of Zhou Cang and the others...
Thinking this, he looked at Shi Yunjing nearby, who, understanding, looked back with a wry smile, bowed and said, "Replying to the predecessor, I am Shi Yunjing, the Heavenly Destiny Hall Master. Everyone who was undergoing assessment in Heaven Mandate Hall more than two timings ago, are all here..."
After speaking, he casually pointed towards Zhang Xuan and the others.
Immortal Supreme looked around, extended his finger forward, and a circle appeared before everyone, "Everyone, I have a circle here. Extend your arms into it and run the fragments of the heavens you've comprehended. If it matches my own, I will take you as a disciple..."
Everyone present fell silent.
Such incredible experts, even if the Zhou Yi Dynasty crumbled, none would come, but now not only are they appearing one after the other, they all just want disciples...
What kind of disciple, so formidable, to make such great experts run around ?
Zhou Cang, Miao Hengsheng, and the others also exchanged wary glances, no words forthcoming.
Others might not know who this person was, but they did; Immortal Supreme, the pinnacle expert of Changsheng Heaven, ranking among the first few of Second-level Heavenly Destiny, was personally here. Could it be that among this crowd, there was someone even more talented than their own disciples?
Their hearts skipped a beat as they simultaneously focused their eyes on Yan Sansan.
They had all taken interest in this young prodigy just now, but since he didn't match their own fragments of the heavens, they had directly given up—could it be... his practiced fragments of the heavens matched this Immortal Supreme before them!
"Immortal Supreme... practices which fragments of the heavens?"
Zhou Cang couldn't help but look towards Feng Yuanping nearby, carefully sending a voice transmission.
Feng Yuanping recalled for a moment and responded, "Seems to be... Life and Death Destiny!"
"Life and Death Destiny... one of the supreme fragments of the heavens just below the top eight. Perhaps only this young man could have understood it!"
Zhou Cang realized, turning his gaze back to Yan Sansan, no longer showing any previous disdain but rather a slight reverence.
Culinary Dao Destiny was only a grade-3 destiny after all. Compared to Life and Death Destiny, ranking quite high among the Second-level Heavens, it was far inferior, not even in the same league. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novel⁂fire.net
Immortal Supreme, surveying the scene, then saw Zhou Cang and others' expressions, following their gaze to rest on Yan Sansan.
"In such a place, at such an age, to have Galaxy Realm cultivation, indeed has impressive talent... What's your name?"
With a slight smile, Immortal Supreme looked at Yan Sansan.
Yan Sansan felt overly flattered, excitedly bowing and greeting, "Replying to the predecessor, I am Yan Sansan..."
He thought he had missed his chance for rapid ascent when Zhou Cang and others chose disciples, but as it turned out, fate was here!
From Zhou Cang and the others' attitudes alone, it was clear that this elderly figure, be it in status or power, far surpassed others.
Becoming a disciple of such a person, he was bound to soar higher and journey farther.
Lu Chong, Wei Ruyan, and that horse, you are all formidable, but in the end, the most awesome one has to be me!
In an instant, Yan Sansan felt he had made it.
