Chapter 319: Chapter 319: Master-Disciple Title

Translator: 549690339

Looking at Gu Ning, who was lazily sitting on the throne, Jiang Xiaobai stared at her, stunned.

She had previously said she wanted to take him as her apprentice, and he thought she was joking. But it appeared she was actually serious?

“Take me as an apprentice?”

“Yep, I wasn’t joking when I mentioned that. If I said I want to butter you up, then I’m going to butter you up.”

“I’ve given you the opportunity, and you can’t skip the ceremony of becoming my apprentice.”

Gu Ning said calmly, “Hurry up and kneel down. Kowtow three times, give me a cup of tea, and after that’s done, you can leave.”

Jiang Xiaobai felt a bit nervous.

Having a strong practitioner as your master was an excellent opportunity. But the problem was – this woman didn’t seem very reliable.

From what he had experienced, her ability to play pranks was top-notch.

He, Jiang Xiaobai was even feeling a bit inferior.

Just as he was hesitating, Gu Ning gave him a sharp look, and Jiang Xiaobai immediately felt an overwhelming pressure descend upon him.

If before, when facing Heng Heng, it felt suffocating, then facing Gu Ning now was like facing a fatal threat.

And Jiang Xiaobai was sure that she could squash Heng Heng with just a flick of her finger.

“Kneel.”

The coldness in Gu Ning’s voice was palpable.

Jiang Xiaobai involuntarily knelt down right away, grudgingly kowtowed in respect, took the cup of tea that appeared beside him and handed it to her.

“H-hello Master…”

Jiang Xiaobai managed to utter, awkwardly.

Gu Ning chuckled, amused as she accepted the cup of tea from Jiang Xiaobai. Just then, she felt a mysterious connection established between them.

As if, in some inexplicable way, she was now irrevocably connected to Jiang Xiaobai.

She grabbed Jiang Xiaobai’s hand and applied some force, and a ray of golden light flashed from his pinky finger.

Gu Ning was momentarily taken aback.

“Merits?”

This was the merit Jiang Xiaobai had received from the system earlier. It didn’t carry much value, because a more powerful person could easily resist this tiny amount of merit.

But Jiang Xiaobai didn’t understand the world he was in at all!

This wasn’t the primeval world that he knew!

They were only somewhat connected, but Gu Ning understood very well what those merits represented in their world.

This world could not have given birth to merit and demerit!

“The old man didn’t lie to me after all!”

Gu Ning mumbled to herself and then let go of Jiang Xiaobai, her eyes narrowed.

Jiang Xiaobai was utterly confused, not knowing about the storm that had just been brewing in Gu Ning’s heart.

“Alright, from now on, you will be known as Gu Ning’s disciple.”

“That’s just in name, of course. A master can guide you in the right direction but at the end of the day, it’s every man for himself. I am not going to tutor you or provide you with any resources or treasures.”

“Ultimately, you’re on your own out there. I have done what I could.”

“Now get lost. When I am in the mood someday, I’ll leave this place and come looking for you to hang out.”

Jiang Xiaobai rolled his eyes at his newfound master who was just free-riding.

He had thought that having a master would strengthen his argument with the ancient clan, but this master was as lazy as a pig and refused to leave the place.

But he had no choice. Her power was not to be underestimated.

Regardless, she was his master, so she might be able to help him if something came up.

“Master, how can I contact you?”

“You are not worthy of contacting me.”

Gu Ning spoke softly, her eyes half-closed.

Jiang Xiaobai clenched and unclenched his fist, but ultimately relaxed.

In his life, he had only met three top-tier women. One was his wife, who was formidable and had a terrible temper.

One was Zhuang Huanling, who had a powerful backer, leaving no room for you to fight with her.

And there was Gu Ning sitting before him.

She was the worst of the lot, indolent and possessed a wicked sense of humor.

These three women left him, Jiang Xiaobai, helpless!

With a disgusted face, Jiang Xiaobai took out a storage ring and handed to Gu Ning: “You are my master after all, so I can’t treat you badly. You have severe fire toxicity in your body. Take these pills. They’ll help to counteract the toxicity.”

Gu Ning was shocked but didn’t let it show. She nodded and accepted it.

She then waved her hand, and three figures crashed onto the ground.

Upon a closer look… weren’t these the idiotic brothers?

Jiang Xiaobai chuckled to himself. Finally, they crashed into a wall, eh?

“Big brother, this woman… she’s terrifying!” The youngest one exclaimed as soon as he got up.

“No shit, Sherlock! She’s clearly stronger than the three of us, so of course, she’s not weak!”

The eldest one retorted, then resumed staring at Gu Ning in silence.

Seriously, this was stupidity at its finest. Knowing that she was a potent threat, yet still daring to stare unabashedly at her?

“Not to be rude, but can you three brothers tell me, why have you been incessantly tailing me?”

Jiang Xiaobai huffed coldly.

“Hmph! I would never tell!” The eldest brother huffed back.

“It’s because… our employer wants something in your possession!” But before he could finish, the youngest one blurted out.

SLAP!

The second brother jumped up and slapped the youngest one on the head.

“Idiot! I can’t believe you disclosed it!” He shouted in exasperation.

The youngest one clutched his head, a look of confusion on his face: “No one told me I couldn’t tell.”

Looking at these three buffoons, everyone in the hall was puzzled.

Could people really be this tactless?

“What object?” Continued Jiang Xiaobai, still cold as ice.

At this point, he wanted to know why he was being pursued more than he wanted to kill these three.

Upon hearing this, the eldest huffed again, turning his head away. The second brother also looked the other way, his face resolute.

Jiang Xiaobai then looked at the youngest brother.

“It’s a key, a golden key.” The youngest brother replied without hesitation.

“We can’t say, we can’t say!”

The eldest brother became panicked: “You bastard, I’m telling you now, you mustn’t say anything to him!”

The youngest one sounded a feeble acknowledgment, looking as if he really wouldn’t speak again.

But it was too late – Jiang Xiaobai already had his answer.

A golden key appeared in his hand. He had found this key while he was looking for a way to defend himself on an adventure outside.

Looking at the three guys in front of him, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t really want to kill them.

They were too hilarious and didn’t pose much of a threat – more like a minor annoyance really – but somehow, they had helped improve his reaction skills greatly.

Overall, he should thank these three.

Later, Gu Ning used some other methods to learn all the details.

The three idiotic brothers were assassins hired to retrieve the golden key. As it turned out, Jiang Xiaobai had beaten them to it, leading to their relentless pursuit.

The brothers had peculiar names too — Hu Da, Hu Er, Hu San!

Truly, their parents had put a lot of thought into their names!

Just hearing those names, you could tell they weren’t the brightest of the bunch.

Once he knew all the ins and outs, Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but laugh.

“Anyway, your employer is already running out of time. After that, there’s no need for you to continue trying to carry out this task for him, and I could spare your lives. How does that sound?”
