Chapter 26: Refusing to Acknowledge as Master!

  Just as Yang Tianyou was about to agree with the old Taoist priest, a discordant voice came over.

  "Hey there, young one! The teacher wants to take you on as a disciple. What an honor for you! Hurry up and come pay your respects to the teacher!" A middle-aged man dressed in scholarly attire walked out from beside the mountain path, his face full of disdain, with even a hint of jealousy.

  With a wide sleeve swing, his eyes stared straight at Yang Tianyou, sharp and with a hint of ruthlessness, seemingly still upright and just, but the aura around him made Yang Tianyou's heart jump in surprise.

  This... is absolutely a cultivation above that of Mahayana Golden Immortal!

  "Be more respectful!" The old Taoist shouted, and even so, it was enough to make a middle-aged man's eyes flash with fear, afraid yet intimidated!

  The old Taoist's words were like a heavenly rule, transmitted into the primitive's ears, and the primitive suddenly felt a spatial fluctuation around his body, which was instantly sealed. The primitive was shocked in his heart, thinking that he was a sage, and he thought he was not much different from his teacher. However, now it seems that he has been sitting in meditation to observe the heavens, and originally, he was the ignorant one.

  However, the original heart was even more jealous of Yang Tianyou. This guy was praised by the teacher, while he himself was blamed, and might even be laughed at by others, losing face for no reason.

  After a saint has obtained the Great Way, what else can they do but fight for that must-have face, even to the point of engaging in fierce battles and possibly falling from grace.

  "Teacher, please calm down and forgive your disciple!" An old man with white hair jumped up with a shoulder pole and begged the old Taoist priest, whoever heard the old man's words would not be able to bear not to agree.

  But he was destined to be disappointed. The old Taoist priest did not say a word, but only stared at Yang Tianyou, as if waiting for his answer.

  "Teacher, please forgive Second Brother!" A sturdy young man with sincere eyes pleaded, his sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes showed extraordinary spirit, and a hint of unruliness occasionally flashed across his confident face.

  When he saw these two people and heard their remarks, Yang Tianyou's heart flashed a hint of shock.

  Three Purities!

  These three people turned out to be the legendary Three Pure Ones, Laozi, Yuanshi and Tongtian!

  So this old Taoist is... Hong Jun?

  An impossible idea emerged in Yang Tianyou's mind, this old man was actually Hong Jun, the most powerful person in the entire Honghuang world!

  The master of a saint is how formidable, no wonder I didn't notice when the other party arrived.

  Others are the ancestors of the Tao, if they were discovered by themselves, it would be really unreasonable.

  However, Yang Tianyou is also a man and a master with a handle, why should he be threatened by you?

  Making Hong Jun my master is a good thing, but it's not my ultimate goal. My goal is to surpass everything. Saints are just bigger rocks on the road of life. If they get in the way, kick them aside. If they're annoying, stomp them into pieces!

  "Hmph! Yang Tianyou coldly snorted in his heart, is this the moral integrity of a saint's disciple? Although Laozi and Tongtian are very concerned about Yuanshi, Yang Tianyou still felt a strange emotion spreading here, as if the two hoped that Yuanshi would be severely punished."

  That's how Yang Tianyou felt at this moment, with the Hongmeng purple energy in his body, his sensitivity was very keen, even if the other party was a saint, Yang Tianyou could still feel that faint chill.

  However, Yang Tianyou was not afraid at this time, because there was another great person who intervened. Although Hong Jun is the master of a saint, the premise is also that he is a human being, and he also has his own thoughts. It's strange if he didn't feel relieved when someone else stole the show.

  As a master of the saints, one must have a model. With just a slight cold hum, all the saints felt a chill in their hearts. Who dares not obey this mighty power?

  Yang Tianyou had originally wanted to apprentice under Hong Jun Dao Zu, that was a big backer, in this world where strength is respected, what one relies on is not just strength alone.

  The most important thing is still having a good backer, isn't Hong Jun just the best backer?

  But Yang Tianyou had a proud heart, with the heart of Pangu in himself, and the Hongmeng purple energy stored in his divine soul, which was his greatest reliance. If he were to take on an apprentice, that would be his own bondage. What would happen if someone had bondage?

  Does cultivating immortality really emphasize clarity and non-action?

  So why are there still so many people worshiping and learning from their masters, inheriting numerous karma, what is the point of all this?

  The way is one's own way, others' ways can only be borrowed, even if you pay homage to a master, what can you do? It's just for oneself to find many causes and effects.

  Yang Tianyou thought for a moment and said regretfully to Hong Jun: "Thank you, Master Daozu, but I have gotten used to being free, and I didn't intend to become an apprentice. I hope Master can forgive me!"

  Yang Tianyou said sincerely, his heart was very painful, such an opportunity was lost in vain, but Yang Tianyou did not regret it, this was his own choice, the strong have their own dignity and momentum.

  Yang Tianyou thinks that he is not an extraordinary strong man now, but Yang Tianyou believes that his future will be magnificent.

  The main reason is that Yang Tianyou knows he has the escaped Hongmeng Purple Qi on him, if Hongjun were to find out, his life would be in danger. That Hongmeng Purple Qi is something even Pangu had to think carefully about to obtain, and Hongjun will not give it up no matter what.

  The Three Pure Ones furrowed their brows upon hearing the words, for it was rare to see someone who dared not give face to Hong Jun's ancestor. This guy was indeed the first since the beginning of time. It was unknown what would become of him. At this moment, the Three Pure Ones began to worry about Yang Tianyou.

  As for Yang Tianyou's identity, the four of them naturally knew, but as for that matter with the Jade Emperor of Heaven, they were too lazy to care about it, and wasting time on that was not as good as finding a few good disciples to teach.

  Even if Jade Emperor's cultivation is high, but he is not a saint, after all, he is an ant, and the three of them will not put this kind of clown who is not even a saint in their eyes.

  The Jade Emperor did not offend the Three Pure Ones, if he really provoked them, the Three Pure Ones would also come to change the day and date without hesitation. Of course, if the Jade Emperor had self-awareness, he would also know that saints are not easy to provoke, even if he was once a saint's door boy!

  As for Yang Tianyou's refusal, Sanqing's face looked even more unpleasant. As a saintly disciple, he was actually rejected by a tiny Celestial-level being who hadn't even reached the level of Daluo Golden Immortal, let alone his own master's wish to take on an apprentice. This was unforgivable, and this guy had to die in order to atone for his guilt.

  No, his soul should be put in Asura hell and roasted at night.
