456 Chapter 456 – It’s Him

“What do you want?” Zhou Xuanji asked in a low voice, his gaze locked onto the old beggar.

Hearing this, the old beggar scratched his bottom as he lay on the grass and chuckled, “Naturally, I want to take you as a disciple. Did you forget about our last meeting?”

Zhou Xuanji coldly harrumphed and said, “I’m not interested.”

Even though the old beggar was very powerful, he did not like having another senior above him.

The old beggar flipped himself up and said seriously, “I can help you surpass Malicious Buddha and the Demonic Emperor.”

Zhou Xuanji rolled his eyes and said, “I can do that by myself.”

The old beggar angrily put his hands at his waist and said, “Even if you become stronger, they’ll still exist and become stronger too. Just when will you be able to catch up to them?”

Zhou Xuanji fell silent. He understood the principle, but he just didn’t want to take on another teacher.

Zhou Xuanji looked at him deeply and asked, “If you want to take me in that much, why didn’t you protect the Divine Cliff back then? I don’t need a teacher right now.”

He had many ways to become stronger; why did he need to take a teacher?

“I had things to do; didn’t you see me bringing along your Senior Apprentice Brother Di Guanlong? That boy doesn’t know the heights of the heavens or depths of the earth. He first challenged Han Xuzi and then Taichu Yudao, and he is now challenging experts all over the world,” the old beggar sighed, looking very worried.

However, all Zhou Xuanji could hear was that he was showing off.

Zhou Xuanji’s heart started to relax as he said hesitantly, “How do I know that you don’t have ulterior motives? Xuan Daoya said he wanted to be my support.”

The old beggar laughed in annoyance and said, “Boy, are you afraid? You don’t even dare to seize the fortuitous opportunity right in front of you. Do you know how many people cry and beg me to take me as their teacher? I have a disciple in the Great Emperor Dao Court.

“As for those Saint Swords that you are so desperate for, one of my crazy disciples obtained one; I’ll bring it over for you next time. Also, Di Guanlong’s very powerful right? But among my disciples, he’s the weakest. No wait, you’re the weakest.”

Zhou Xuanji started to feel somewhat indecisive.

The old beggar continued to boast about his disciples.

The old beggar glared at him and said, “How can you neglect the formalities?”

A massive might descended, causing Zhou Xuanji’s expression to fall. His right leg weakened and he half-knelt.

He looked at the old beggar in fear.

What terrifying pressure!

He was unable to retaliate at all!

However, the old beggar allowed him to retain some dignity and did not have him fully kneel.

“From today, you are my disciple. As long as you don’t seek your own death and challenge the old monsters above the 33rd heaven, no one of higher seniority will be able to harm you. Of course, if anyone of your generation defeats you and wants to kill you, I won’t interfere,” the old beggar said, full of mettle. He raised his head and stood with his chest out as he waved his hand domineeringly.

“Now that you’ve become my disciple, you must defeat everyone in your generation, or else you might as well die! Di Guanlong has already walked on this path; the next is you!”
