Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Wang Qian did not expect Su Wan’er to say that. She opened her mouth but could not speak. Wan’er might not accept the pills even if she forced her to take them.
“Wan’er, Big Brother Mo is asking for you.”
Tang Zhizhi said this with a slight smile as she emerged from upstairs.
“Big Brother Mo is looking for me?” Su Wan’er ran upstairs excitedly when she heard that.
“Wang Qian, don’t worry. I can sense that Big Brother feels differently about Wan’er. I reckon Wan’er will surpass us greatly in the future.”
Tang Zhizhi looked at Su Wan’er’s retreating back. This was her first time meeting such an innocent and kind young lady.
Wang Qian felt delighted when she heard that. She and Wan’er were as close as sisters. She naturally hoped that Wan’er would have a good future. Furthermore, given her and Wan’er’s relationship, even if Wan’er were to experience great success in the future, she definitely would not forget about Wang Qian.
However, why did Big Brother Mo ask Wan’er to go up alone? Wang Qian felt very curious about that.
“Big Brother Mo, you were looking for me?”
Su Wan’er stood in front of Mo Wen. Her hands were twisted together. Her face was flushed and looked like a red apple.
“Wan’er, I remember that you once told me you wanted to be a great doctor. You said that you want to save the dying and heal the sick.” Mo Wen said with a faint smile.
“Yes, Big Brother Mo.” Su Wan’er nodded forcefully. “Why do you ask?”
“Then let me ask you, are you willing to become my disciple?” Mo Wen looked at Wan’er. He had a lot of medical skill but had not found an heir. He could forget about the immortal alchemy skills. However, the skills passed down by the Mo family must not end with him.
Mo Wen was born to the Mo family and had deep feelings about it. As part of a family that had been practicing medicine for thousands of years, Mo Wen hoped that the Mo family medical skills could be passed down in this world, even if he was displaced in time and space.
“Ah!”
Su Wan’er clapped her hands to her mouth. Her eyes were wide open. She had never expected Big Brother Mo to suddenly say something like that.
“What is it? Are you unwilling? My medical skills are quite decent.” Mo Wen said with a smile.
“No, no, no…I just, just…”
Su Wan’er shook her head frantically like a rattle drum. She lowered her head and spoke as softly as a fly: “I am just a little Regulated Breathing Realm warrior. Can I really become Big Brother Mo’s disciple…?”
Big Brother Mo was an impressive and powerful figure. He was high and mighty, while she was just a lowly character. They belonged to two different worlds. Could she really become Big Brother Mo’s disciple?
“Silly girl. Great oaks from little acorns grow. Everyone starts in the Regulated Breathing Realm. So what if you are in that realm? Furthermore, I’m going to focus more on passing on medical skills to you. Cultivation is secondary.” Mo Wen patted Su Wan’er’s head. He truly liked this girl who was innocent and kind, because Mo Dong’er had been like that too. She had lived in an environment where she stood aloof from worldly strife and was as pure as a white lotus.
And Su Wan’er was pure and innocent. That was even more precious, and also why Mo Wen liked her so much.
“Big Brother Mo, are you really willing to become my master? But…but I already have a master. And there are rules in the sect…”
Su Wan’er was excited and also a little worried. She was a disciple from the Five Tigers Sect. As a disciple, she already had a master. She could not take another person as her master.
“Your Big Brother Mo does not care who you take as your master and what sect you are from. As for the Five Tigers, I will notify your Sect Leader,” Mo Wen said with a smile.
Anyone else with the opportunity to take Mo Wen as their master would not care about the measly Five Tigers Sect. Only Su Wan’er would worry about this meaningless issue.
“Big Brother Mo, I will immediately take you as my master once my sect agrees.” Su Wan’er’s face was flushed red with excitement. She had grown up in the Five Tigers Sect, and it was very important to her. Furthermore, in her heart, taking a master was a serious matter. She could not be rash about it.
“Alright, alright. The sect leader and elders of the Five Tigers Sect are still in Dragon City. Ask them to come here.”
Mo Wen shook his head helplessly. Anyone else would be very eager to take him as their master. However, Su Wan’er had so many demands.
“Sect Leader Uncle and the elders are in Dragon City. I will go and look for them immediately.”
Su Wan’er rushed out of the shop excitedly. The elders of the Five Tigers Sect were helping out in the shop because they would gain more from working in the shop than risking things outside of the city. As such, they all chose to help out there.
Of course, this was also due to Su Wan’er. Otherwise, if it were anyone else, they would not even have the chance to help out at the medicinal pill shop.
Xie Rengui and Yun Pengqing were outside buying spiritual herbs and spiritual medicine. They were sourcing these herbs and medicine. After all, the shop sold a large number of medicinal pills that were made from such spiritual medicine. Without the supplement of the spiritual medicine, Mo Wen would not be able to make medicinal pills, no matter how mighty he was.
Two hours later, Xie Rengui led the other grand elders of the Five Tigers Sect to the shop in a hurry. Mo Wen had called for them, and they did not dare to dawdle.
“Young Master Mo, were you looking for us?”
The men saw Mo Wen the moment they entered the shop and bowed respectfully. To them, Mo Wen was all-powerful, and they could never be too respectful towards him.
Su Wan’er had dragged them over. They had hurried there without speaking about why Mo Wen was looking for them.
“It’s like this. I want to take Wan’er as my disciple. What do you all think?” Mo Wen said lightly. Given his character, he would not normally ask anyone else for their opinions if he wanted to take a disciple. However, Wan’er valued the opinions of her sect, and it would not do for him to be so dictatorial.
The men from the Five Tigers Sect were stunned when they heard this. Then, they looked delighted. Mo Wen was willing to take Wan’er as her disciple. That was something they could never even have dreamed of. Wan’er was just a little disciple of the Five Tigers Sect. Who was she, and what kind of fortune did she have, to become the disciple of such an all-powerful person?
They were not stupid. Mo Wen did not have to ask them if he wanted to take Wan’er as his disciple. Since he had asked them, it must be because of Wan’er. After getting to know Wan’er these past few days, they understood her a little. They knew that she was a girl who valued relationships. However, how could they dare to object if Mo Wen wanted to take Wan’er as his disciple? That would be asking for a beating.
Furthermore, Mo Wen taking Wan’er as his disciple was not a bad thing for them, but actually a very good one. Wan’er valued relationships a lot. Given her nature, she would still feel great emotional ties to the Five Tigers Sect even if she left the sect and took Mo Wen as her master. She would take care of the Five Tigers Sect in the future, and that was a great blessing.
“It is a great fortune for Wan’er, which she must have accumulated over a hundred lifetimes, to become Young Master Mo’s disciple. We are more than happy for her, and we approve wholeheartedly.”
Xie Rengui bowed deeply with a joyful expression. He was not lying at all. They had already reaped plenty of benefits from the insignificant relationship between Wan’er and Mo Wen. If Wan’er became Mo Wen’s disciple, they would reap plenty more in the future. Such a blessing was difficult to come by. Why would he consult their opinions?
“You are all understanding people. You have worked hard in the shop these past few days. From now on, your pay will be doubled. These are a few bottles of medicinal pills that are suitable for you all. Take them.”
Mo Wen nodded with satisfaction. These people were quick-witted.
“Many thanks, Young Master. I will forever remember what you have done for us.” Xie Rengui and the others were delighted. They had already made a lot of money from working at the shop. Doubling their pay would amount to a large number of spiritual stones. It was likely that they would earn more in those two weeks than they would the rest of their lives. As for the medicinal pills that could increase their cultivation, that was something that money cannot buy.
“Miss, are you satisfied now?” Mo Wen said, smiling at Su Wan’er, who was standing obediently off to the side.
Su Wan’er felt giddy with bliss. She stood there in a daze, and her cheeks were flushed bright red.
“Wan’er, what are you still standing there for? Quick, greet your master.” Xie Rengui urged. That girl Wan’er was dazed and silly. She had to ask for their approval even when she had such an opportunity. What was there to ask about this? It was such a good piece of fortune that one could not expect to come across it in eight lifetimes. However, Wan’er had insisted on seeking their opinions, and that truly warmed their hearts. They did not usually pay much attention to Wan’er, nor did they give her much protection when she was hurt by Fu Yu. The upper-level members of the Five Tiger Sects decided that they would treat all the disciples of their sect better when they returned.
“Wan’er greets her master.”
Wan’er knelt with a thud and greeted Mo Wen. He who taught for a day was a father for life. That meant that she had to pay the same amount of respect to her master as she did her parents.
…
“Wan’er, you…you…you really…took Big Brother Mo as your master…”
Wang Qian held Wan’er’s hand and babbled on somewhat nonsensically. She stuttered for a long while but could not complete her sentence. Taking Mo Wen as her master was something that she did not even dare to think about in her dreams. Little girls like them did not have the right to take powerhouses like Mo Wen as their master. However, in the blink of an eye, Wan’er had become Big Brother Mo’s disciple.
“Elder Sister Wang Qian, I am now a direct disciple of Big Brother Mo,” Su Wan’er said blissfully.
Every girl had a hero and Big Brother Mo was hers. Being able to take her hero as her master was such a blessed thing.
“Wan’er, you’re doing great now. The little duckling is finally about to become a beautiful swan.”
Wang Qian held Su Wan’er and started jumping up and down excitedly. Big Brother Mo doted especially on Su Wan’er. However, she did not expect him to take her as his disciple.
Tang Zhizhi stood by the side with envy in her eyes. However, she knew that this was not something she could be envious about. This was a blessing of fate that belonged to Wan’er.
“Wan’er, will you study by Big Brother Mo’s side in the future? Can you stay with him forever?” Wang Qian asked enviously. She would return to the Five Tigers Sect after the Martial Arts Circle Convention ended. Meanwhile, Su Wan’er has already reached heights that she herself could not even see.
“Big Brother Mo said that he will set up a sect called the Ming Cult moving forward. I am the first Sacred Maiden of the Ming Cult. When everything has settled down, he will teach me medicine.”
Su Wan’er explained this sweetly.
“Ming Cult? Isn’t his sect Dafang Sect?” Wang Qian asked curiously. Everyone knew that Dafang Sect had an extremely powerful sect leader.
“Wang Qian, there is something you do not know. The Ming Cult is a sect that existed very long ago. However, it has since disappeared. Big Brother Mo has something to do with the Ming Cult. I guess he is thinking of rebuilding it.”
Tang Zhizhi was an executor of Huatian Palace and also lived in Dragon City. As such, she had a lot of information. Many had guessed who Mo Wen was when he used the Yin Yang Qi and the Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift. Mo Wen was definitely going to rebuild the Ming Cult.
Just as the three women were gossiping about the origins of the Ming Cult, an old man suddenly entered the shop. The old man was not from Huaxia, but was a foreigner.
“I am looking for a young man called Mo Wen. I just have a question for him. Has he forgotten our promise?” The old man said forthrightly the moment he entered the shop.
