These things are indispensable.
Whether it was talent or determination, Zhou Fu possessed both, and it was only natural for Hao Tian Quan to take the boy as a disciple.
Wait.
That's not right!
Yu Daohen suddenly realized, Zhou Fu wasn't his disciple.
When did he become a disciple of Hao Tian Quan?
Poaching?
"Hao Ye, isn't Xiao Fuzi my disciple?" Yu Daohen spoke.
Hao Tian Quan, on the other end of the phone, replied irritably, "You still know he's your disciple? Such a big matter for a disciple, and you, as the master, aren't rushing back? Besides, didn't you ask that kid to take me as his master?"
Yu Daohen's mind quickly recalled, it seemed there was indeed such a thing.
"Hao Ye, you didn't agree at the time."
Hao Tian Quan on the other end of the phone was slightly embarrassed, "I suddenly want to agree now, do you have an opinion?"
"No, no, how could I have an opinion?" Yu Daohen quickly replied.
"Since you don't, then hurry back." Hao Tian Quan hung up the phone after speaking.
Yu Daohen put down his phone, feeling happy in his heart.
Hao Tian Quan taking Zhou Fu as a disciple was a good thing.
With Hao Tian Quan's guidance, Zhou Fu would definitely reach a higher level.
After all, Hao Tian Quan could teach a nobody to the fifty-first position on the Earth Ranking.
Although there was a little bit of exaggeration in that ranking.
But it had to be admitted that Hao Tian Quan was indeed skilled in teaching disciples.
Perhaps, with this connection, he could trick Hao Tian Quan into guarding the Yan Huo Sect for another year.
In the backyard of the Yan Huo Sect.
Zhou Fu looked at Hao Tian Quan and asked, "Uncle-Master, can my master come?"
Hao Tian Quan looked at Zhou Fu's excited expression and smiled, "Don't worry, your master will definitely come. Besides, can't I, accompanying you, hold the fort?"
Zhou Fu quickly shook his head, "No, I just hope my master can come."
Hao Tian Quan shook his head helplessly and smiled, "Your master is already on his way, he'll definitely be able to make it."
But speaking of which, Yu Daohen had taught a good disciple.
Even though he had already taken him as a disciple, he insisted on calling him Uncle-Master.
Was he really that unimpressive?
A month after Yu Daohen left, Hao Tian Quan proposed that Zhou Fu become his disciple.
But Zhou Fu refused adamantly, saying that he would only ever have Yu Daohen as his master in this life.
Hao Tian Quan was helpless, but this kid's talent was extraordinary, and more importantly, he was hardworking and not overly ambitious.
Hao Tian Quan, unwilling to give up on such good material, proposed a solution.
He could become his disciple, but he didn't have to call him Master, instead calling him Uncle-Master. Then, after much persuasion, Zhou Fu finally agreed to become his disciple.
Hao Tian Quan had never suffered such indignity.
He was, after all, the third-ranked expert on the Black List, and those who wanted to be his disciples lined up from the Yan Huo Sect to the Walk of Fame.
He hadn't thought about taking a disciple before, but he had never found a suitable one.
There were many with talent, but they were all overly ambitious.
Those with Zhou Fu's level of comprehension were very few.
Zhou Fu then asked again, "Uncle-Master, when will my master arrive?"
Hao Tian Quan thought for a moment and said, "Listening to him, it should be today."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Fu's face lit up with joy, "Then I'll go wait at the foot of the mountain now."
After speaking, Zhou Fu turned and ran to his room to change.
"Wait a moment..." Before Hao Tian Quan could finish speaking, he saw Zhou Fu had already run far away.
Hao Tian Quan felt helpless.
Was he that excited?
I am your master too, why haven't you ever been this excited to see me?
The subway soon arrived at Yulin, Guangxi. Yu Daohen did not say a word and hailed a Didi to the Yan Huo Sect in the scenic area.
Upon arriving at the foot of the mountain in the scenic area, Yu Daohen saw Zhou Fu already waiting for a long time as soon as he got out of the car.
When Zhou Fu saw Yu Daohen, his face broke into a smile, and he happily said, "Master, you're back."
Looking at this kid, Zhou Fu, after half a year, his physique had obviously become much stronger, and his skin tone had also returned to its original color.
Looking at him this way, this kid could be considered a handsome guy.
Of course, he was still a hundred thousand miles away from his master.
Yu Daohen nodded appreciatively and praised, "Not bad, you've gotten much stronger in half a year."
Zhou Fu rubbed the back of his head, a little embarrassed, "Thank you for your praise, Master."
Looking at the boy's shy smile, Yu Daohen's face broke into a smile, "Let's go, we're going back to the sect."
Since Yu Daohen hadn't informed the elders of his return, no other disciples came out to greet him.
The main reason was that Yu Daohen preferred to keep a low profile.
Yu Daohen led Zhou Fu and walked up the mountain.
Zhou Fu wanted to step forward to carry his master's luggage, but then he thought better of it.
Yu Daohen merely glanced at Zhou Fu behind him and knew what the boy was thinking. The corners of his mouth turned up, and he tossed the luggage bag on his shoulder over, "You brat, carry this bag for your master."
Zhou Fu took the bag, his face broke into a smile, and he nodded, "Okay, Master."
Yu Daohen also inquired if there had been any major events in the sect during the past half year.
Zhou Fu recounted everything. Because Hao Tian Quan was present, there were no major incidents, only trivial matters.
Yu Daohen nodded and decided to see Hao Tian Quan first, then meet with the elders.
Upon arriving at Hao Tian Quan's residence in the backyard, he saw Hao Tian Quan looking at him with a solemn expression.
Seeing Hao Tian Quan's expression, Yu Daohen looked confused and asked, "Hao Ye, what's with that expression?"
Hao Tian Quan confirmed that the aura was emanating from Yu Daohen and asked, "Why is there so much ghostly energy on you?"
Yu Daohen sighed and briefly recounted what had happened to him in the past half year.
Upon hearing this, Hao Tian Quan frowned, "Could it be that a Ghost Immortal condenses a black bead when they dissipate?"
Yu Daohen shook his head, "I don't know, but the bead's power is now being used by me."
Zhou Fu, standing beside them, also sensed the ghostly energy emanating from his master but dared not ask.
Hao Tian Quan looked at Yu Daohen and chuckled, then stood up, "Master Yu has been in seclusion for half a year, your strength must have increased significantly. How about a spar?"
Yu Daohen waved his hand, quickly admitting defeat, "Hao Ye, you are the third-ranked expert on the Black List. If I fight you, I will only lose."
"No more nonsense, it's decided." As soon as Hao Tian Quan finished speaking, he leaped off the ground and charged towards Yu Daohen, raising his hand and striking with his palm.
Yu Daohen, with quick eyes and hands, raised his hand and blocked Hao Tian Quan's palm strike.
Bang!
Yu Daohen instinctively lowered his body, and Hao Tian Quan's expression changed slightly.
What was that bound to his arm?
Hao Tian Quan's previous strike was not light, but now his palm was numb from the impact.
"Hao Ye, even if you want to spar, you should at least give me some preparation time." Yu Daohen grinned, then kicked towards Hao Tian Quan.
