When a Western Fantasy Witch Traveled to the Immortal Cultivation World and Became the King of Scrol

Chapter 10 Just give up when you’re ready
"No...Uncle Long, you, you don't have any disciples."

The little girl in yellow was about to cry when she came to her senses. She had never expected that the purpose of Uncle Long walking straight towards her was not to accept her as a disciple, but to scold her in public so mercilessly and embarrass her!

"Are you willing to take me as your master?" Upon hearing this, Long Aotian turned around and asked Zhou Ling who was standing beside him.

"Huh?" Zhou Ling was confused. Her spiritual roots were so useless, but her fellow villager actually wanted to accept her as a disciple?

"Stop talking nonsense. Do you want to bow?"

"Bye, bye, bye!" Zhou Ling was stunned by the sudden pie, but her body's reaction was faster than her brain. Before she could think carefully, she blurted out the response.

"Here, disciple, you have it. Apologize to my disciple." Long Aotian still had a cold face and his attitude was unquestionable.

But this time, the little girl in yellow clothes really started crying, she was anxious, angry, and furious!
"Uncle Long! She...she is just a useless person with five spiritual roots! With such poor qualifications, even the outer sect may not keep her. How can you accept her as your disciple?"

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Long Aotian's aura became even colder and more oppressive.

The little girl in yellow shrank her neck out of fear, and her red face was covered with tears from anger. She looked so pitiful.

"Oh, Junior Brother, why are you getting angry with a child? Wan'er is still young. If you scare her like this, how can she reflect on her mistakes?"

An old man on the high platform could no longer sit still. Seeing his beloved girl being frightened and crying, he hurried over to smooth things over for his child.

What? Why is it to smooth things over instead of supporting?
Xu Zhe said that he couldn't hold up his waist at all in front of Junior Brother Long.

The sect has had mixed fortunes in recent years, with disciples who go out for training often dying unexpectedly. In addition, there are not many promising disciples who have grown up within the sect. In the eyes of outsiders, this is the sect's three rises and three falls. The Wandao Sect once prospered for so many years, but now it is gradually declining. It is no longer viable.

But just when their generation was about to be defeated and swallowed up by others, Junior Brother Long joined the sect and, with his own strength, truly turned the tide.

The sect was supported by this talented junior brother of his and was not further heading towards destruction. It was because of this that all the disciples in the sect had a home and a place to live.

He couldn't, and didn't dare, go against his junior brother's will.

"Grandpa!" Xu Wan couldn't believe that her own grandpa came over not to stand up for her, but to ask her to apologize. How was this possible?

"Nonsense!" Xu Zhe ignored the coquettish tone and turned around to scold.

"If you are wrong, you are wrong. Who was the first to provoke me? Do you think I can't see it? Wan'er, you are spoiled at home, but now that you have joined the sect, how can you still not repent? Go and admit your mistake!"

Seeing Xu Wan biting her lower lip with tears in her eyes, Xu Zhe felt sorry for her, but his tone became more severe.

"Yes...I'm sorry."

Even though she was unwilling to accept it in her heart, now even her grandfather was no longer on her side, and Uncle Long's expression was terribly cold. At this moment, she had no choice but to apologize honestly.

She stammered out "I'm sorry," she had already lowered her noble head as low as she could, but the ungrateful loser in front of her didn't even appreciate it!

"What did you do wrong? Why are you saying sorry?"

Zhou Ling is not one to suffer losses. It would have been fine if she was in a disadvantageous situation before, but she was able to carry out her plan to the end with the principle of "impatientness will ruin great plans".

But now, humph.

Now that her backers and patrons have arrived, it would not be her style if she didn't fight back to get her revenge.

"you……"

"Wan'er! If you want to admit your mistake, you should look like you are admitting it!" Xu Wan, who almost had a fit on the spot, was once again interrupted by old man Xu Zhe.

Xu Wan gritted her teeth viciously, her eyes seemed to be filled with poison, she stared at Zhou Ling, and once again said sorry through gritted teeth.

"I'm sorry. I was wrong to disregard our friendship and speak ill of you. I said many impolite things. I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me."

If Zhou Ling hadn't uttered every word with such force that he wanted to bite his back teeth to pieces, he felt that he might be able to just wave his hand and let the matter go.

But with her attitude, it won't work.

"Besides those rude words, you also told me to get out. How else can I explain this?"

"I'm sorry!" Xu Wan's little fists hanging behind her were shaking with anger.

"You even mocked me for being a waste with five spiritual roots and told me to go home with my mother."

"I'm sorry!" His teeth were almost broken.

"Just because my mother praised your beautiful eyes, you are so kind that you want to ask my mother and I to be your maids." Zhou Ling refused to give in.

"I'm sorry! I really know I was wrong!"

Xu Wan was so angry that not only her fists were shaking, but her whole body was about to tremble! If this continued, she would be so angry that she would vomit blood!
Fortunately, Zhou Ling was good at observing people's expressions and seeing that she had really reached the limit of her patience, she stopped in time.

"I am not a person who doesn't know how to be reasonable. Since you sincerely admit your mistake, my mother and I will forgive you."

…Xu Wan covered her face and ran away crying. She never wanted to see Zhou Ling’s face that made her want to punch it again.

Xu Zhe standing by also had an embarrassed look on his face. He never expected that his little girl would do this to him at today's disciple-taking ceremony.

"Junior brother, I'm really sorry."

He bowed and said goodbye, too embarrassed to continue standing there, so he turned around and returned to his previous position.

The ceremony of accepting disciples is still going on, and those who have been tested to have good spiritual roots have been named as disciples by the prestigious elders.

As for the rest, those who should enter the inner gate should enter the inner gate, and those who should go to the outer gate should go to the outer gate.

Zhou Ling dug her toes into the ground in embarrassment. She didn't quite understand. Wasn't this fellow villager, who was called Uncle Long, planning to take her in as his apprentice? Why did he suddenly stand there motionless as if the computer had frozen?
Shouldn't they be like those who are undergoing the ceremony of accepting disciples, offering tea when necessary, kowtow when necessary, and accepting gifts when necessary?
"Don't be impatient."

Zhou Ling's expression froze, because just now! A voice suddenly sounded in her mind, not heard with her ears, but directly in her head!
My goodness, could this be the legendary telepathic communication? It really is magical!

"When I asked you to test the activation of the sword talisman, you also noticed the person hiding in the crowd at the back, staring at you the whole time."

Zhou Ling didn't dare to nod, for fear that others would notice something was wrong, but she didn't know how to respond to him through telepathy, so she could only worry.

"No need to respond. The person staring at you just left the crowd and went to meet an old man with profound cultivation. This must be something unusual. I will go there myself and drink tea with him when I come back."

As soon as the words fell from his mind, the fellow villager in white clothes disappeared.

Zhou Ling's heart tightened! She was about to shout "Don't go!" The gaze staring at her did not disappear. This might be a way to lure the tiger away from the mountain!
But it's too late...
