Supernatural Insight Eyes-Chapter 1936 - 1937: Searching for the Culprit! First Update
Ye Qiu’s refusal naturally had his reasons. In his heart, he only acknowledged two masters. One was the old lecher, who, even though now far away on Earth and unable to teach him anything further, once a master, always a master.
On the other hand, there was the old Mo. If the old lecher had guided him onto the martial arts path, the old Mo was the master who allowed him to advance further in martial arts.
Having these two masters was more than enough. Now, having reached the Gui Xu realm in terms of strength, he felt that relying on himself was sufficient, and there was no need to take another teacher.
Zhuang Miao Shan was momentarily stunned; he had actually been refused by someone!
After quite a while, Zhuang Miao Shan spoke again, "Ahem... young man, you might not have heard me clearly earlier. I am a Supreme Saint. Even when ordinary people beg me to take them as a disciple, I can’t be bothered to agree. Now, this blessing has landed right in front of you, and you should grab it."
Ye Qiu still shook his head, as he truly didn’t lack a master.
"Then give me a reason to be convinced. If you can convince me, I will not take you as a disciple." Zhuang Miao Shan said, discovering for the first time that he was rejected even when he wanted to take a disciple.
"You are a Supreme Saint, but can you beat the Domain Lords?" Ye Qiu said.
Zhuang Miao Shan: "Not for now..."
"If you can’t defeat the Domain Lords, then forget it. Anyone who wants to be my master must be able to defeat the Domain Lords," Ye Qiu said.
"Young man, when it comes to Domain Lords wanting to take on a disciple, countless people would fight for it, and it might not even be your turn. But I’m different. I’m a Supreme Saint, just one step away from being a Domain Lord."
"But you are just a Saint right now, and you’re merely one realm above me. It won’t be long before I also reach the Saint Realm. At that time, what can you teach me? But if you were a Domain Lord-level expert, that would be different. Even after I enter the Saint Realm, you could still teach me many things. Am I right?" Ye Qiu said slowly.
Zhuang Miao Shan nodded, seemingly finding no fault.
"So, I say, wait until you become a Domain Lord-level expert before you take me as a disciple. I promise I will agree," Ye Qiu said persuasively.
"Hmm, what you said is reasonable. Very well, once I become a Domain Lord, I will come to take you as a disciple." After saying this, Zhuang Miao Shan turned and left.
On his way out, the more Zhuang Miao Shan thought about it, the more something seemed amiss. Wanting to take a disciple, how come Ye Qiu was dictating the terms to him?
Moreover, if he became a Domain Lord, would he still need to ask someone to be his disciple?
Zhuang Miao Shan suddenly stopped, saying dazedly, "I seem to have been tricked by that kid."
It was only then that he realized Ye Qiu’s twisted reasoning was simply a way to refuse him and not wanting to be his disciple, and he had actually listened to it.
"That kid..." Zhuang Miao Shan was not angry. Instead, it made him more determined to take Ye Qiu as a disciple.
"Even if you disagree, you have no choice. If I, Zhuang Miao Shan, decide to take a disciple, there’s no room for rejection. If persuasion doesn’t work, I’ll use force." Zhuang Miao Shan quickly turned back to try and stop Ye Qiu again.
On the ground, the fierce winds howled. At some point, a strong wind had started, causing the tall grass blades to sway in the wind.
Out in the open, there was no one in sight, and Zhuang Miao Shan was dumbfounded. Where was Ye Qiu?
He was at the Gui Xu realm, a martial artist. There was no way he could disappear that quickly.
Zhuang Miao Shan was incredulous and released his Divine Sense, instantly covering a thousand miles, yet he still couldn’t find a trace of Ye Qiu.
"First, he could detect me, and now he can avoid my probing. Good lad... I am definitely going to take you as my disciple." Zhuang Miao Shan decided to confront Ye Qiu, determined not to give up on taking him as a disciple.
Zhuang Miao Shan’s figure gradually disappeared into the night. Amidst a pile of chaotic stones, a grain of sand transformed from the imperial bell moved, and suddenly, Ye Qiu appeared out of thin air.
To vanish in the open and avoid the scrutiny of a Supreme Saint, besides the imperial bell as a hidden Divine Artifact, there was no other treasure. Naturally, Ye Qiu had been hiding inside the imperial bell, evading Zhuang Miao Shan’s investigation.
Realizing that Zhuang Miao Shan had left, Ye Qiu shrugged his shoulders. He didn’t want another master, even though Zhuang Miao Shan simply wanted to take him as a disciple without ill intent. However, Ye Qiu didn’t wish to be involved too much.
The reason for his inner reluctance was also due to the fact that his martial arts disciples were from Earth, not from the ancestral land. If Zhuang Miao Shan discovered anything, wouldn’t it expose him?
Moreover, he carried the inheritance of Ge Tian. Could he guarantee that Zhuang Miao Shan wouldn’t be tempted?
Even if Zhuang Miao Shan was indeed a good master, those who wanted to kill him were all from powerful religious sects. There were several Domain Lord-level experts among them, and Zhuang Miao Shan’s power as a Supreme Saint couldn’t compare. Once his identity was exposed, it would instead endanger Zhuang Miao Shan, so from any perspective, it didn’t make much sense to apprentice under him.
Moreover, the tasks ahead for him would be difficult to accomplish with Zhuang Miao Shan tagging along.
But now, he could continue his journey alone.
When the brilliance of the sun enveloped Ye Qiu, he arrived at a city.
Huang Long City.
Ye Qiu’s eyes lit up. From Huang Long City, through the teleportation array, he could reach his destination.
After entering Huang Long City, he found an inn and rested for a while. To avoid encountering Zhuang Miao Shan again, he donned a hat to cover himself before setting out on his way.
Half an hour later.
Ye Qiu arrived at the foot of a tall mountain that pierced the clouds. The mountain was slender like a sword, and from a distance, it looked like a longsword.
This was the Sword Sect!
Ye Qiu had his reasons for coming to the Sword Sect. He stood outside the sect, observing for a while, but did not enter. Such a grand sect was not easily accessible.
Near the Sword Sect, Ye Qiu casually entered a tavern. He sat inside, watching for a while, and found a know-it-all.
This type of person had the most reliable information. Essentially, they knew all the local news.
Ye Qiu sent a message to this person, who immediately walked over with a smile, saying, "I don’t know what you’re looking to find out? Here, each piece of news has its price."
"Sword Sect!" Ye Qiu uttered two words.
This person’s eyes flickered, scanning left and right, "The minimum is three hundred star coins, otherwise no deal."
Ye Qiu placed his hand on the table, and in a wink, three hundred star coins appeared on it. Seeing this, the person’s eyes gleamed with greed, and he quickly asked, "What do you want to know about the Sword Sect?"
"I want to know where the Sword Sect’s strongest genius is."
"..."
That very night, the Sword Sect genius, known as Li Yijian, who had the reputation of cutting through water with one sword, encountered a mysterious person, and the next day, Li Yijian went insane.
The entire Sword Sect was furious, searching the city for suspicious individuals. Even the person who sold information to Ye Qiu was invited by the Sword Sect for questioning.
Ye Qiu sat quietly in the teahouse, watching the Sword Sect’s people moving up and down the street, showing no particular expression.
Regarding what he learned about Li Yijian, Ye Qiu wasn’t afraid of exposure because he had used a clone at that time, not his current appearance.
Even if that person could describe what he looked like, it would be of no avail.
"The Sword Sect genius did not have that Saint’s face in his mind, it appears that the one who destroyed the ancient land was not a Sword Sect expert," Ye Qiu murmured.
Ye Qiu came here not for anything else, but to find the mysterious Saint who destroyed the miniature ancient world that nearly killed him that day.
Having ruled out one sect, only two sects remained: the Taiyi Divine Sect and the Demon God Sect.
