444: Chapter 444: Not Allowed to Leave the Mountain for Three Years
She deeply loved Lin Yifan and, of course, did not want to see him end up alone and die in solitude.
“Sister An Qi, Jiajia is right, you should join Grandma’s disciples,” Su Qingqing also joined the persuasion team, urging An Qi to beco a disciple of Xuji True Master.
“Jiajia, Qingqing, don’t lose heart, I definitely won’t let you go before ,” Lin Yifan hurried to comfort them.
Now Zhou Jiajia and Su Qingqing’s ntal state was a bit bad, he didn’t want them to feel lost, sad, or despair because of this incident.
“Do you think you are an immortal who can ignore the cycles of heaven and alter your destiny?
You can only extend their lives by twenty or thirty years at most.
After a hundred years, their deaths are certain,” Xuji True Master continued to crush his hopes.
An Qi was already wavering in her decision and was about to beco her disciple; she certainly didn’t want to drop the ball at this mont.
“Then, I will go to hell with them after a hundred years,” Lin Yifan answered.
“Ha ha!
Ridiculous!
Instead of thinking about death, it would be better to endeavor in cultivation, break through the cage, and seek the Path of Longevity; then, naturally, you’ll be able to extend the lifespans of your two lovers,” Xuji True Master scoffed.
“Even you top experts can’t defy fate, let alone us,” Lin Yifan responded.
“If every cultivator were as lacking in ambition as you, the Gate of Longevity would probably never open,” Xuji True Master rebuked.
“The Gate of Longevity?
What does that an?” Lin Yifan was suddenly taken aback, feeling that this world was not as simple as they believed.
“Knowing these things now is of no benefit to you, better increase your realm first and then talk about it,” Xuji True Master played coy again.
Lin Yifan was completely exasperated, every ti it ca to a crucial mont, Xuji True Master always acted mysterious, making him angry yet not daring to express it.
However, even though he did not know what the Gate of Longevity ant, at least one ssage was clear: if he could open it, he could help Zhou Jiajia and Su Qingqing live longer.
This was fantastic news that allowed him to see a glimr of hope.
“Miss An, what do you think?
Have you thought it through?” Xuji True Master asked again.
To be honest, An Qi was really torn now; she originally only wanted to spend these short decades peacefully with Lin Yifan, but she hadn’t expected the sudden prospect of hundreds of years to confuse her thoughts.
People are always so greedy, of course, she wanted to be with Lin Yifan for a little longer.
But once she entered the turbulent waters of the Cultivation World, she wouldn’t be able to get out.
After thinking for a mont, she still wanted to seek Lin Yifan’s opinion, because all she wanted in the future was to be with Lin Yifan.
“Yifan!
Do you want a peaceful life, or one of sword and shadow, strife and intrigue?”
“I can no longer withdraw from this path.
It’s a world where the strong prey on the weak, and I must beco stronger to protect you all,” Lin Yifan answered.
As the opponents he faced beca more nurous, and as the company developed step by step, he realized his previously peaceful life was gone forever.
If he wanted to survive in this world, he had to beco more powerful.
Because even if you don’t look for trouble, trouble will automatically co knocking on your door.
And his three stunning girlfriends were even more likely to attract unwanted attention.
“Alright then!
Grandma, I am willing to beco your disciple!” An Qi said to Xuji True Master.
The decision was clear for Lin Yifan, and since he chose the path of cultivation, she would accompany him on it.
At least in this way, they would have each other’s company on the path and it wouldn’t be so lonely.
Moreover, in a large family, having one more powerful mber ant one could share more of the responsibilities.
If she beca powerful, she would not only stop needing Lin Yifan’s help but also be able to take care of Jiajia and the others.
“That’s more like it!
The young man is sensible and speaks truthfully, unless you all don’t want to survive in this world anymore, you can only accept its cruelty.”
Xuji True Master was thrilled; after much effort and convincing, she finally succeeded in taking An Qi, a woman with extraordinary talent, as her disciple.
However, before she could feel happy for even a second, another unexpected event occurred.
“Old grandma, although I’m willing to join your Sect, I have a request,” An Qi said.
“Go ahead, what’s the request?
As long as it’s not too excessive, I will agree,” Xuji True Master inquired.
“I would like to work and practice cultivation in the city,” An Qi replied.
She didn’t want to be separated from Yifan and Jiajia.
If Xuji True Master could accommodate her request, she would definitely join her Sect unconditionally.
“How could that be possible?
As a cultivator, one should be deaf to outside affairs and devote oneself entirely to cultivation,” Xuji True Master responded.
“Really?
It’s not possible?” An Qi asked.
“At least not within three years,” Xuji True Master answered clearly.
“Then I won’t join your Sect,” An Qi said stubbornly.
At this mont, Lin Yanping was truly furious.
If she were her Master, she would have turned around and left upon hearing these words; if it were more serious, she might have slapped her to discipline this ignorant person.
She really couldn’t understand why her usually hot-tempered Master was tolerating such humiliation today.
Could it be that this sickly girl had such an exceptional gift that she was unprecedented and unrivaled?
“Silly girl, haven’t you thought about it?
Spending three years could earn you thirty years, or even longer, of companionship.
Moreover, if you cultivate well, I’ll even give you a few days off to co down from the mountain to visit your family and friends,” Xuji True Master continued to persuade patiently.
She was angry too, but in front of An Qi, she couldn’t seem to get worked up.
“What if sothing suddenly happens to Yifan one day?
What would I need all that ti for?” An Qi questioned.
Her biggest concern was exactly this point.
If she returned from her cultivation to find that Lin Yifan had already left this world, what would be the point of it all?
“Oh, you silly girl, why are you so deeply affectionate?
Alright, I promise you that he will be safe and sound for these three years.
Does that satisfy you?” Xuji True Master was helpless.
Only with such a promise could she remove An Qi’s worries and allow her to concentrate fully on her cultivation.
“Can you really do what you say?” An Qi was sowhat skeptical.
“If I can’t do it, I’ll slit my throat right in front of you,” Xuji True Master declared, putting it all on the line.
She did not believe there would be anybody who dared to defy her or kill soone under her watch.
“My dear, rest assured, I won’t let anything happen to myself; concentrate on your cultivation,” Lin Yifan also ca over to persuade.
An Qi’s words had moved him greatly; he hadn’t expected the girl to be so determined to stay with him.
But he didn’t want to be a stumbling block on her path of cultivation, so he had no choice but to make such a promise.
