Chapter 595 - 283: The Ancestor will be very happy to take you as a Direct Disciple (2)
Does this beast have such a huge stomach? Even though his cultivation base isn’t as high as his, how can he eat even more?
Yu Yuanwu felt somewhat unconvinced and, despite being stuffed, continued to stuff food into his mouth.
It wasn’t until he truly couldn’t fit any more in that he looked at Lu Yi with a vexed expression.
The Yu siblings nearby naturally noticed this as well.
Yu Xin and the Yu Family Matriarch exchanged glances and both revealed a slight smile.
Yu Hanguang chuckled, “Lu Yi, your foundation is very solid, I’m afraid my third brother can’t compare to you.”
Hearing this, Lu Yi was startled and then turned to look at Yu Yuanwu beside him.
Yu Yuanwu’s mouth twitched slightly, he murmured quietly, “I’m just not in good form today…”
The Ling Luo Peak Master, on the other hand, was quite proud and patted Lu Yi on the shoulder with a chuckle, “This lad’s Ascension elevated the entire Tianming to an Immortal Star. With such talent, no offense to my third brother, but he definitely can’t compete.”
Even Yu Xin and the Yu Family Matriarch were startled by these words.
Yu Hanguang looked at Lu Yi with a mildly astonished expression.
Yu Yuanwu exclaimed, “Really? His Ascension actually transformed a Mortal Star into an Immortal Star?”
The Ling Luo Peak Master rolled her eyes, “Of course it’s true. Do you think I would lie to you? Not only that, but Lu Yi’s Ascension Thunder Tribulation merged dozens of exotic Heavenly Thunders.”
Even Yu Xin and the Yu Family Matriarch were shocked by this.
“Ling Luo, are you serious? Yi’er’s Ascension Thunder Tribulation contained dozens of exotic Heavenly Thunders?” the Yu Family Matriarch asked with a look of surprise in her eyes.
“Yes, didn’t the elder say that during her Ascension, she faced nine rare Heavenly Thunders? Lu Yi had even more,” the Ling Luo Peak Master said, growing more proud as she saw Yu Xin and the Yu Family Matriarch’s astonished reaction.
Although it wasn’t her own strength, he was, after all, her direct disciple.
How close was their teacher-student relationship? It was virtually the same as if she herself had faced that many Heavenly Thunders during her own Ascension.
The Ling Luo Peak Master thought this and her pride swelled even more.
Yu Xin glanced at the Ling Luo Peak Master, then turned to Lu Yi and said with a light chuckle of appreciation, “Xiao Yi, I didn’t expect your talent to be higher than I imagined. How about this, I’ll go inform the elder. I’m sure she will be delighted to take you as a direct disciple.”
Lu Yi was startled and a little surprised.
Who was the Yu Family elder?
She was an Immortal Venerable Level character, and because of his talent, the Yu Family Master was willing to have such a person teach him?
Okay, Lu Yi’s heart was actually somewhat tempted.
After all, the rewards his master could obtain from completing tasks were quite substantial.
Even though his current master’s strength was nearly inferior to his own, and every sermon allowed him to have an epiphany.
If his master became an Immortal Venerable Level character, not to mention anything else, the rewards from the sermons would undoubtedly be stronger.
While Lu Yi was momentarily tempted, the Ling Luo Peak Master beside him was dumbfounded, “Huh?”
She suddenly felt unhappy, “No way! This little brat is my direct disciple! How can he take someone else as his master?”
Yu Xin said with a smile, “Isn’t it simple? You just sever the master-disciple bond. After all, you’re all from the Yu Family.”
Ling Luo Peak Master: “???”
She looked incredulously at Yu Xin, thinking, is this really the kind of old man you are?!
She turned her head towards Lu Yi, her eyes filled with menace as she said fiercely, “Little brat, tell me, do you want to be my direct disciple, or someone else’s direct disciple?”
Lu Yi, still not able to best the Ling Luo Peak Master, coughed awkwardly and said seriously, “Of course, I am your disciple, Master.”
The Ling Luo Peak Master then nodded with satisfaction, “Hmm, good, good.”
Yu Yuanwu was anxious for Lu Yi, “I say, Lu Yi, you can’t listen to this woman, that’s the elder we’re talking about! An Immortal Venerable Level character! For most people, even Yu Family disciples, that kind of opportunity is impossible to come by, you have to seize it!”
Even Yu Hanguang nodded in agreement, “Yuanwu is right. With your talent, plus your current strength, my sister can’t teach you anything anymore.”
Ling Luo Peak Master: “???”
She was speechless, were these really her own family?
Who exactly is family here?!
Liu Ningshuang and the others beside her were now looking bewildered.
They had never imagined that a simple meal would turn into an opportunity for Lu Yi to become a direct disciple of an Immortal Venerable.
They had all been in Tianming before, but over the years, they had heard of the power of Immortal Venerables, the true rulers of the Yu Family.
They never imagined that Lu Yi could become a disciple of such a figure!
The four of them felt proud inside, as it proved that their husband’s talent was indeed that immense.
Even Liu Ningshuang and Donggong Ming Yue, two disciples of the Ling Luo Peak Master, were now torn.
Should they side with their master?
Just then, the Yu Family Matriarch said with a light chuckle,
“If Ling Luo is unwilling, why not form a Taoist couple with Yi’er? The relationship would be even closer, wouldn’t it?”
The Ling Luo Peak Master: “?????”
Lu Yi: “?????”
Liu Ningshuang and the other three: “?????”
Everyone was suddenly a bit dumbfounded.
The atmosphere turned awkward for a moment.
The Yu Family Matriarch blinked and chuckled, “What? Did I say something wrong?”
Yu Xin wore a thoughtful expression, looking at Lu Yi as if sizing something up.
“Wait, wait! What are you thinking?! I am this kid’s Master! How can we form a Taoist couple?!” The Ling Luo Peak Master stood up excitedly, expressing strong opposition.
Liu Ningshuang and the other three exchanged glances, their eyes communicating silently, their thoughts unknown.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yi looked at the Ling Luo Peak Master and suddenly realized that his own Master was quite good-looking, wasn’t she?
It seemed like it wouldn’t be a loss?
But he quickly came to his senses.
This person was so fierce; if they really became a Taoist couple, he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to handle her.
Unless his strength was greater than hers.
“Ahem! Regarding this matter, I will first speak with the elder ancestor, and then let the elder ancestor make a decision,” said Yu Xin.
After all, Lu Yi’s talent was too extraordinary.
At the time of his Ascension, he attracted dozens of rare types of Exotic Heavenly Thunder, his natural gift was too exaggerated.
Even Yu Xin, as the Yu Family Master, had never heard or seen anything like it, and had to take it seriously.
At the same time, Yu Xin glanced at the anxious demeanor of the Ling Luo Peak Master and pondered.
If Ling Luo and Lu Yi really became Taoist couples, it wouldn’t be such a bad thing after all.
After all, the relationship between Taoist couple was even closer than that of Master and disciple.
If Lu Yi could achieve the Immortal Venerable Level in the future, then the Yu Family could boast another Immortal Venerable powerhouse.
If he surpassed the Immortal Venerable Level… Yu Xin found it hard to imagine this possibility.
After all, even Yu Xin knew that only a few forces possessed living fossils at the Immortal King Level.
If Lu Yi could really achieve Immortal King status, then, even if Lu Yi started his own family, the Yu Family could benefit immensely from its development.
As for Immortal Emperor, Yu Xin didn’t even dare to hope for that.
Thinking about it further, Yu Xin was getting a little excited.
Having the two unite wasn’t out of the question after all?
Once Yu Xin made the decision, naturally, the Ling Luo Peak Master would be unable to oppose it.
After all, Lu Yi’s talent was indeed too shocking, and she could naturally understand.
But this old fellow, actually thinking of making her marry her own disciple?! The Ling Luo Peak Master was so angry she was grinding her teeth.
With various thoughts in their minds, everyone finished the family banquet, and afterward, the Yu Family Matriarch arranged for Lu Yi and the others to stay in the Ling Luo Peak Master’s courtyard.
At parting, Yu Yuanwu reminded Lu Yi to rest well and to have a match later.
Having heard of Lu Yi’s formidable talent, Yu Yuanwu was even more excited.
Back in the courtyard, the Ling Luo Peak Master glared at Lu Yi and said through gritted teeth, “You little brat, you aren’t also thinking of making your Master become your Taoist couple, are you?!”
Lu Yi immediately responded with all seriousness, “How could that be? How could I, Lu Yi, be such a person?!”
Liu Ningshuang and the other three had strange expressions on their faces, thinking to themselves, aren’t you, though?
When the Ling Luo Peak Master heard what Lu Yi said, she nodded with satisfaction, “That’s good then. You all go back and rest well.”
The Ling Luo Peak Master returned to her room, and Lu Yi and the others also went back to their rooms.
Inside the room, Donggong Ming Yue suddenly spoke up, “Say, if Master really became Senior Brother’s Taoist couple… Do we call Master ‘Junior Sister’ or what?”
Liu Ningshuang: “?????”
Lu Yi: “?????”
Jian Ruyu and Yun Xi both had bizarre expressions, and the room fell silent for a time.
