Wuhun: Desert Death on the left hand, the world on the right hand

Concentrating his consciousness, Bai Yun carefully summoned an ant from Bai Yunjie back to Douluo World. He had to test whether the ant transformed by Bai Yunjie could survive in Douluo World, which was related to many future plans.

However, just as Baiyun was concentrating on the test, Wang Erya came over and saw Baiyun playing with ants. She joked, "Brother Baiyun, you are playing with ants!"

Bai Yun frowned slightly, slightly displeased with Wang Erya's misunderstanding, and said seriously: "Erya, this is not a joke, this is an experiment."

Wang Erya stuck out her tongue, looking nonchalant, shaking her head and saying, "I know, I know, Brother Baiyun is the best, he must be working on some powerful magic. Brother Baiyun, when will you teach me?"

Bai Yun shook his head helplessly, squatted down, and patiently explained to Wang Erya: "Erya, this is not a spell, this is a kind of..."

Bai Yun paused, and for a moment he didn't know how to explain the word "experiment" to Wang Erya.

Wang Erya tilted her head and asked curiously, "What is it? Brother Baiyun, please tell me!"

Bai Yun thought about it and changed his words to something more understandable: "This is a kind of research, just like a blacksmith studies how to make stronger weapons and a tailor studies how to sew more beautiful clothes."

Wang Erya nodded as if she understood, then shook her head and asked, "Brother Baiyun, what are you researching? Are you researching ants?"

Bai Yun smiled and tapped her nose, saying, "I guess so. I'm studying some of the...special abilities of ants."

Wang Erya became even more curious and asked, "What special abilities do ants have? Aren't they just good at moving things?"

Bai Yun pretended to be mysterious and said: "This is a secret. You will know it when you grow up."

Wang Erya pouted in dissatisfaction and said coquettishly: "Brother Baiyun, you just like to tease me! When will you teach me powerful magic?"

Bai Yun rubbed her hair lovingly and said, "When you grow up a little bit, I will teach you."

Wang Erya smiled contentedly, and suddenly seemed to remember something. She turned around and ran away, shouting, "Brother Baiyun, come and catch up with me!"

Bai Yun looked at her lively back and shook his head helplessly. During the fun play with Wang Erya, he accidentally learned that after their martial spirits awakened that day, their parents took them to find Elder Xue. Elder Xue also believed that his life span was short and wanted to find a successor, so he accepted Wang Erya as his apprentice on the spot. As for Goudan, he had a standard useless martial spirit, so Elder Xue did not agree.

"Mr. Xue?" Bai Yun's heart moved. As a martial arts master with broad knowledge, Mr. Xue must have a deep understanding of the current situation in the martial arts world.

At this time, Wang Erya came back and ran to Baiyun proudly, saying, "Yes, Brother Baiyun, you don't know that Master Xue has always wanted to accept you as his disciple and take you to practice in seclusion, but he can't bring himself to find you, and he is also angry that you haven't come to him to become his disciple for so long. Today, Master Xue specially asked me to come and see your situation, and by the way... um... test your attitude."

Bai Yun's mind moved. Although retreat and training would help improve his strength, he still needed to plan his future path by himself. Facing Mr. Xue's expectations and the uncertainty of the current situation, he made his own decision.

"Er Ya, take me to see Mr. Xue." Bai Yun said softly, "There are some things we need to talk about."

Wang Erya's eyes lit up, and then she revealed a playful smile, turned around and led the way to Xue Lao's residence. Bai Yun followed closely behind, and he had already made up his mind - he must have a good talk with Xue Lao to learn more about the current situation in the martial arts world, so as to formulate his own plans and strategies.

Wang Erya laughed and talked all the way, leading Baiyun through several paths and arriving at a small courtyard at the westernmost end of the village. The courtyard was not big, but it was neatly tidied. There was an old locust tree with lush branches and leaves in the courtyard, and a set of stone tables and stone chairs were placed under the tree.

At this time, an old man was sitting at a stone table, holding an old book in his hands, reading it intently. The old man had white hair and beard, but was vigorous, with a pair of deep and wise eyes, as if he could see through everything in the world. He was Wang Erya's master, and the only 28th-level great soul master in the village - Old Xue.

Hearing the noise, Mr. Xue raised his head and saw Bai Yun and Wang Erya, with a kind smile on his face. "Erya, you're back."

Wang Erya ran to Master Xue with a smile, took his arm and said coquettishly: "Master, I am so awesome. I brought Brother Baiyun to you!"

Mr. Xue put down the book in his hand, and his eyes fell on Bai Yun, with a hint of barely perceptible relief in his eyes. He stroked his beard and said in a serious tone: "Bai Yun, you are finally willing to come and worship me as your master?"

Bai Yun lowered his head and said sincerely: "Mr. Xue, you also understand the situation of our family..."

He paused, his voice choking with sobs, "My father...he passed away early, and my mother was the only one left in the family..."

He raised his head, his eyes slightly red, "I don't want to be a soul master, I want to stay at home and help my mother, I don't want her to suffer so much."

As he spoke, Bai Yun secretly looked up at Mr. Xue, and found that the other party did not have any special reaction. He muttered to himself: It seems that I need to work harder!

So he continued, "Mr. Xue, please just think that I am an ignorant child and have failed to live up to your kindness."

He lowered his head, his tone more guilty, "Don't worry, I will definitely respect my mother, work hard on the farm, and not let her worry." Recently, Bai Yun found that his acting skills are getting more and more real. After all, he has decades of acting experience!

Elder Xue's gaze seemed to penetrate the white clouds and reach deep into his heart. After a long while, he slowly sighed, his tone full of understanding and helplessness. "Alas, child, I understand your feelings."

Mr. Xue's voice became low, as if he was lost in memories, with a hint of sadness in his tone.

"Your father was a good kid back then, but unfortunately things don't go as planned... Alas..." He paused, as if trying to calm himself down, then raised his head and said to Bai Yun earnestly, "But, child, have you ever thought about what your mother's greatest wish was? Is it to let you stay in this small village for the rest of your life, living a life of hard work?"

Bai Yun was silent. He knew that what Mr. Xue said made sense, but... "Mr. Xue, I..." Bai Yun tried to explain, but was interrupted by Mr. Xue waving his hand.

"Child, I know what you want to say." Elder Xue's eyes were full of kindness. "You want to say that you want to stay at home and take care of your mother, right?"

Bai Yun nodded, his eyes slightly red.

"But child," Elder Xue's voice became softer, "Have you ever thought about what your mother really wants?" He paused, and then continued, "She hopes that you can be safe and healthy, and she hopes that you can have a wonderful life of your own, instead of being trapped in this small village."

Bai Yun lowered his head, struggling internally.

Elder Xue patted Bai Yun's shoulder gently and said earnestly: "My child, I know you are very filial, but you must understand that your mother's greatest wish is that you can have a bright future."

Bai Yun remained silent. Mr. Xue's words were like a bolt of lightning, striking deep into his heart.

"My child," Elder Xue's voice sounded again, with a hint of encouragement, "I know you have concerns in your heart, but you must believe that as long as you are willing to work hard, you will be able to overcome all difficulties and realize your dreams, and at the same time, you will be able to let your mother live a better life."

Bai Yun raised his head, and there was a hint of struggle in his eyes, but more of it was determination.

"Mr. Xue, I..." Bai Yun tried to explain again.

"Mr. Xue, Mr. Xue!" Bai Yun muttered silently in his heart. Mr. Xue's words echoed in his ears again and again. Every word was sincere and earnest, making it impossible for him to refute.

"I know you are doing this for my own good! Everything you said is right!" If he had not awakened his memories of his past life, at this moment, he might have really been so grateful that he would become an apprentice and learn skills, and embark on the prosperous path of becoming a soul master.

"If I hadn't awakened the memories of my past life! I had my own plans, I would definitely take you as my master." However, fate played a huge joke on him, making him reborn in this strange world with the memories and regrets of his past life.

"Ah..." Bai Yun sighed deeply in his heart. Facing Mr. Xue's enthusiasm and expectations, he could only live up to his kindness. This feeling was like an invisible big hand pushing him in a direction he didn't want to go, making him feel powerless and helpless, but helpless. He secretly looked up at Mr. Xue. The sincerity and expectations in the old man's eyes made him feel mixed.

"What's wrong with me?" Bai Yun felt like he was being forced to do something he was not willing to do, but he had to move forward. He was speechless about the tricks of fate, but also touched by Mr. Xue's sincere treatment.

"Child, I know you have concerns." Elder Xue interrupted Bai Yun, "You are worried about your mother, and you are also worried that you don't have the talent for cultivation, but you have to believe that everyone has their own value, and you are no exception."

Bai Yun raised his head and looked at Elder Xue in confusion, "But why did you choose me?" Bai Yun's voice was very soft, but he tried to make his tone calm, "My martial soul is just an ordinary dog ​​martial soul, and my innate soul power is only level 1. Why did you choose me?"

Elder Xue smiled and said, "Do you know why I want you to be my apprentice? You only have the innate level 1 soul power, but I have been paying attention to you for a long time. You are the most sensible child in this village, and..."

Mr. Xue suddenly stopped and looked into the distance with deep eyes, as if he was lost in thought.

Bai Yun waited quietly, he knew that Mr. Xue must have something to say.

"Child, I don't have much time left." Mr. Xue withdrew his gaze, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"My martial soul is the gray wolf. Arya is a spiritual soul master, which is not compatible with my martial soul. Goudan has a standard useless martial soul. Only your dog-type martial soul is most similar to my wolf-type martial soul, so..."

"So you chose me?" Bai Yun couldn't help but ask.

"Yes." Mr. Xue nodded, "I know this is very unfair to you, but I hope you can understand that I am doing this for your own good."

"Mr. Xue, I..." Bai Yun wanted to say something but was interrupted by Mr. Xue.

"Son, I know it's hard for you to accept it right now. So, go back and think about it carefully tonight, and give me an answer tomorrow," said Mr. Xue.

"Mr. Xue, I will go home tonight and discuss it with my mother, and give you the answer tomorrow!" Bai Yun almost blurted out. He didn't dare to look at Mr. Xue's eager eyes. He could only lower his head and pretend to concentrate on fiddling with the corner of his clothes.

"I really have no other choice but to use the tactic of procrastination." Bai Yun secretly groaned in his heart!

"Oh, I shouldn't have come if I had known!" He muttered silently in his heart, and secretly raised his eyes to glance at Mr. Xue, only to see that Mr. Xue was still looking at him expectantly, which made him feel even more guilty and uneasy.

"But I really can't agree to him!" Bai Yun lamented in his heart, "I have more important things to do. How can I be bound by the path of a soul master?"
