Chapter 10 Refusing to Acknowledge as Master

  Yan Feng stroked his own uneven face, and after a long silence, he said gloomily, "Girl doll, have you ever heard of the title 'Jade Face God'?"

  "I've never heard of it." Xiao Huan Yue gazed at the pitiful person in front of her, who looked three-tenths human and seven-tenths ghostly, with a flash of sorrowful color in her eyes.

  "Do you know, twenty years ago, just mentioning the name of Jade-faced God Yan Feng would make countless famous beauties and heroic women blush. My master Tianji Old Man was hailed as the number one person in the world, respected by all countries. At that time, I had just entered the Jianghu, a young man with great ambitions, wearing bright clothes and riding a fierce horse, roaming freely in the Jianghu, astonishing the world." Yan Feng's face showed a nostalgic expression, and the scars on his face softened, no longer looking so ferocious.

  "Jade-faced god, just hearing the name can already tell its elegance. However, a young man's pride is unavoidable, and his sharp edges will be exposed, which will bring jealousy and unnecessary trouble." Xiao Huan Yue nodded regretfully, knowing that the person in front of her must have gone through an astonishing experience.

  Yan Feng's face showed a look of admiration and praise, sighing "You have such insight at such a young age, it's truly rare, unfortunately you're just a girl."

  "What about being a daughter? Who says women are inferior to men? There are countless extraordinary women in the world, how can they be compared to mediocre men?" Xiao Huan Yue smiled lightly, her calm tone revealing sharpness without showing any edge.

  Yan Feng was taken aback, then laughed at himself and said with embarrassment, "I've lived for over 50 years, but I'm not as good as you in just one sentence. What a strange girl! Haha, it seems that there is such a person right in front of me. Little girl, my interest in you is growing more and more, what's your name?"

  "Old man, my name is Xiao Huan Yue." Xiao Huan Yue pouted in dissatisfaction. It wasn't that she was disrespecting her elders, but he kept calling her "little girl" this and "little girl" that, which made her uncomfortable. So she called him "old man" right back, not wanting to be at a disadvantage.

  "Hehe, you really don't take advantage of anything." Yanzhong knew what she was thinking, and smiled openly, shaking his head and sighing "Alright, I won't call you little baby, I'll call you by your name instead."

  "Alright, Senior Yan." Xiao Huan Yue shrugged and made a face, feeling embarrassed for being too childish.

  "I don't want you to call me senior, I'd rather have you call me Master." Xue Feng said warmly as he felt Xiao Huan Yue sit down beside him.

  "Master?" Xiao Huan Yue was startled at first, but soon laughed at herself. She knew that Yan Feng had been waiting for something all along, so she wasn't surprised. Unfortunately...

  She touched the time-space device on her wrist, thought for a moment, and said in a gentle tone, "I know you want to take me as your apprentice and have me avenge you, but I'm not unwilling to acknowledge you as my senior. However, I only have less than a month left before I leave this place, so I won't be able to fulfill your wish."

  "This place is surrounded by mountains on all sides, unless you learn the qinggong of my Carefree Sect, it's likely to be very difficult to leave." Yan Feng furrowed his brow, his mouth twitching slightly, never expecting that there would be someone in this world who would waste such an extraordinary encounter and refuse to acknowledge him as their master.

  "I have my own way out." Xiao Huan Yue said with certainty, but in her heart, she wasn't so sure. She only hoped that Fang Zhe's invention would make some sense, or else she would be the one to suffer.

  Yan Feng fell silent, just when Xiao Huan Yue thought he would go mad with anger. Instead, he slowly raised his head, revealing a strange smile, and said "I've waited for so long, I don't mind waiting a little longer. I can wait for you for a month, in the end, you will definitely be my apprentice."

  "Why are you so sure I'll definitely be your apprentice?" Seeing his unexpectedly calm demeanor, Xiao Huan Yue was greatly surprised.

  "My master, Tianji Old Man, was well-versed in the art of divination and astrology. Everything he predicted came true. He once said that I would have three apprentices in my lifetime, but so far, I've only taken two. I firmly believe that as long as I live, I will meet the third one, fulfilling my lifelong wish." Yanfeng spoke with great satisfaction, but his words caused Xiao Huanyue's mouth to twitch uncontrollably.

  Fortune-telling, prophecy? Please, she's a materialist, doesn't believe in ghosts or divine power, only believes in science. If someone really could predict things so accurately, the weather forecast wouldn't be so inaccurate.

  Not wanting to be too absolute, and not wanting to see his last hope shattered, Xiao Huan Yue didn't want to continue this topic, and casually asked "You've taken in two disciples? Who are they? Are they powerful?"

  "Of course, my Jade-faced Master's disciples are not ordinary. Mentioning his two disciples, Yan Feng couldn't help but feel a sense of pride, and the ferocious face emitted a radiant glow. He said with satisfaction, "My eldest disciple Xiao Chu has a steady and gentle temperament, after leaving the sect he followed his father to battle on the sandy fields, achieving numerous meritorious deeds."

  "You're the master of that Point Break General." Xiao Huan Yue's mouth twitched even harder, what kind of thing is this, for a disciple to fall off a cliff and yet run into his master, it's too bloody ridiculous.

  "What's wrong?" Yanzhi looked at her with a puzzled expression.

  "It means being unlucky, having bad luck." Xiao Huan Yue rolled her eyes and recounted the encounter with Xiao Chu. Seeing Yan Feng becoming more and more despondent, she couldn't bear it and changed the subject, asking "What about the second disciple?"

  "My second disciple, Mu Yun, has a high talent and is smarter than others. He must have made a name for himself in the Jianghu by now." Yan Feng sighed as he thought of his still somewhat immature second disciple before his encounter with difficulties.

  In the valley, although the temperature is warmer and more stable than outside, a gentle breeze still makes it feel slightly cold. Yan Feng's inner strength is deep, and he is not afraid of cold or heat, but at this moment his emotions are stirred up, making it difficult for him to calm down and operate his internal energy to ward off the chill. As the wind blows, it lifts up his tattered clothes, causing him to shiver involuntarily.

  This slight movement entered Xiao Huan Yue's eyes, she stood up, took off the ill-fitting soldier uniform on her body, and gently put it on Yan Feng. The oversized clothes that fit perfectly on Yan Feng.

  "I have clothes with me." Seeing Yanfeng's face change, she quickly explained and took out modern clothes from the package she was carrying.

  "Hehe, you're a kind and considerate good girl." Yanfeng stared at her for a long time before bursting into laughter.

  Xiao Huan Yue snorted, disagreeing in her heart. Good girl? Get out of here, haven't you heard that good people don't live long? Kindness? Consideration? These words didn't even come close to describing her; she was a cold-hearted and ruthless person who wasn't worthy of such beautiful words.
