Chapter 817: Chapter 366: Individualized Instruction and Harmonious Iron Fist
“The thesis… perhaps should not be published for now?”
Gu Chang hesitated for a long mont before speaking.
Zheng Fa was sowhat surprised, looking at his eldest disciple.
“If other disciples learn of this… I’m afraid they expect too much.”
Zheng Fa paused and saw a hint of lancholy on Gu Chang’s face: “I’m nearly driven mad, my Dharma Body is damaged; there’s no avoiding the suffering caused by the Spirit Root. The other senior and junior brothers probably aren’t much different.”
“It’s better to wait until so results are achieved before making it public…”
“Lest they celebrate in vain.”
Hearing these words, Zheng Fa nodded secretly in his heart.
Spirit Root transformation is enough to drive most Nine Mountains Disciples mad.
It’s truly no small matter, and Gu Chang’s consideration is reasonable.
From the looks of it, he seems both worried about the burden of public opinion on himself and afraid so of the Nine Mountains Disciples might ss around and follow in his footsteps, showing a bit of kindness in his heart.
It is clear that he still cares deeply about his situation without a Spirit Root.
Seeing Gu Chang’s complex expression, a starry light ignited in Zheng Fa’s palm, coalescing in the air to form a light screen.
The left side of the light screen depicted a transparent human body with drawn nerves and ridians.
The left side contained so text, detailing treatnt suggestions and ideas for Spirit Root transformation.
“Master, this is…”
Gu Chang looked at the tangled nerves on the light screen with a sense of understanding in his eyes, but his lips trembled slightly, seemingly not daring to believe his guess.
“This is the treatnt plan I’ve devised for you. The main idea is to use Thunder Skill as the primary focus, assisted by Spiritual dicine…”
“Thunder Skill is manageable, but the Spiritual dicine will need to be researched slowly.”
Zheng Fa explained carefully to Gu Chang:
“However, the hope is significant, so you need not be too anxious…”
“…Yes!”
Gu Chang gazed at the densely packed text on the light screen for a long ti before breaking into a slight grin, only able to utter agreent.
Mu Qingyan slightly lowered her eyes, feeling a pang of sourness in her heart again.
The plans Master had tailored for Senior Brother were truly extensive. During her own apprenticeship, she hadn’t sought much—after all, she could still form a Nascent Soul through step-by-step cultivation.
All she sought was a place to rest peacefully.
But seeing Master’s ticulous care for Senior Brother, compared to herself, how could there not be a sense of disparity?
Zheng Fa turned to Gu Chang again and said, “Besides this, there are many areas of knowledge you need to learn, including neuroscience, biology, and Talisman Map Topology. Here is a bibliography; start by reading it.”
“Afterward, it’s best if you write a few reviews for .”
Gu Chang cupped his hands and said, “I will do so diligently!”
Mu Qingyan increasingly felt that Senior Brother was the disciple Master valued most, while she truly felt like just an appendage.
Though writing reviews sounds daunting, being taught by Master so ticulously… makes her genuinely envious.
Didn’t you see how quickly Senior Brother agreed?
Forget it, as soone who has been reborn into the Nascent Soul, after experiencing countless hardships, with a Dao Heart as firm as iron, I couldn’t care less…
“Qing Yan.”
“Master?”
Mu Qingyan looked up to find Zheng Fa gazing at her, involuntarily feeling bewildered.
“Qing Yan, what do you want to learn?”
“Huh?”
“Since you’ve joined my sect, of course I must teach you sothing. But you are different from your Senior Brother—his talents are quite evident, while you excel in nurous areas…” Zheng Fa frowned slightly, seemingly troubled.
Mu Qingyan listened in a daze.
She is different from Gu Chang; Gu Chang is sowhat lopsided in his studies:
Aside from his aptitude, in areas outside the talismanic Dao, his performance was quite average.
In terms of mindset, Zheng Fa could sense that this disciple felt slightly inferior, often anxious and indecisive.
Though called Senior Brother, in truth, it was more like he was Mu Qingyan’s Junior Brother.
Mu Qingyan was quite different:
She excelled in many disciplines.
She was also adept in interpersonal relations, with steadfast determination, and held considerable esteem in the archaeology group.
Given her experiences, guiding her as closely as he did with Gu Chang would be unwise.
It would be better to simply let Mu Qingyan decide for herself:
While the Three Thousand Great Dao might be beyond his full understanding, gathering Three Thousand Scholars was sothing he could still strive toward.
Although he did indeed invest more importance in Gu Chang, he had long intended to accept Mu Qingyan as a disciple, certainly not to make her rely a tool.
Mu Qingyan stood dumbfounded for a while before speaking as if awakening from a dream: “Let choose?”
“You choose for yourself. Of course, you also don’t need to feel burdened. If you wish to learn sothing else later, you can switch.” Zheng Fa’s tone was very patient. “Simply tell what you most want to learn right now.”
Mu Qingyan noticed that Senior Brother Gu Chang’s gaze toward her suddenly seed a bit envious.
She was envious of herself as well.
Having only lived through two lifetis, she wondered if throughout history, there had ever been a Master so freely and kindly allowing a disciple this level of choice?
Master wasn’t disregarding her at all.
He was overly considerate…
Mu Qingyan’s smile was sugar-sweet as she lifted her head and said loudly: “…I excel most in the Alchemy Dao!”
Whether the Secret Techniques of mory or the relics—there would always be a day they were exhausted.
If anything, in her past life, she truly excelled in the Alchemy Dao from Qingmu Sect; it was precisely through it that she step by step achieved the Nascent Soul.
“The Alchemy Dao?”
What a coincidence.
Zheng Fa had been pondering about how to introduce modern pharmaceutical concepts here.
Among others, Mu Qingyan’s talent and identity indeed suited her best.
…
Walking far from Zheng Fa’s courtyard, Mu Qingyan remained silent, while Gu Chang started to laugh, teasing her: “Not feeling aggrieved anymore?”
“Senior Brother!”
“I’ve heard you say that your effort to join Master’s sect was no less than mine. Previously, you looked down your nose at .” Gu Chang, as if not seeing Mu Qingyan’s teasing look, laughed. “And now?”
Mu Qingyan didn’t speak; she only stopped in her tracks and turned her gaze back to Master’s small courtyard.
