He quickly snatched the teapot from the old man's hand, took two new teacups and filled them with tea.
"Come, Ah He, serve tea to Master!"
Shu He was a little confused, and before he knew it, a cup of tea was stuffed into his hand.
When she came to her senses, she found herself being pulled by Baili Moqing to kneel on the ground and become his disciple. The most important thing was that he was also kneeling with her, holding a cup of tea.
"Today is a good day, Master Kun, please make up for my cup of tea!"
The old man glared at him, "You little brat, how come your temper has gone back to when you were seven? You're so shameless!"
Baili Moqing chuckled and handed the tea over with Shu He.
"Ah He (Mo Qing), meet the Master!"
The old man looked at them with a look of satisfaction in his eyes, "You two are really a talented man and a beautiful woman, both of you are very talented. You will not be embarrassed for me, an old man, when you go out." He changed his self-proclaimed name from "old man" to "old man", which also meant a change in their relationship.
He also felt a little sad. He didn't expect that at the last minute, he would still accept a disciple.
"Forget it, forget it. You're so old, what else can't you see through?"
The old man drank two cups of tea and then asked the two men to get up.
Shu He also didn't expect that he would meet a master just by coming to see someone, and a very powerful master at that!
The old man looked at Baili Moqing and said, "At your current level, there's nothing more I can teach you. How far you can go in the future depends mainly on whether you have the ability to comprehend."
"Actually, you don't have to give me this."
Baili Moqing put away his unruly look, and with a solemn expression on his face, he said seriously, "Once a teacher, always a teacher. The kindness you gave me in my childhood education and guidance is worthy of my kowtow to you."
The old man knew that he was speaking from his heart, otherwise he would not have been in exile and still remembered to bring him tea.
"During those days of exile, did you ever blame me for not saving you?"
If he wanted to save him, it would only take a word.
Baili Moqing shook his head. "My destiny is my own. If I need others to save me every time I encounter setbacks, then I will never be able to grow in this life."
"Besides, you are already quite old. I can't bear to ask you to leave the Kokuzoin Temple and sell your face for a useless apprentice like me."
The old man nodded, stroked his snow-white beard, with a hint of relief in his eyes.
"Everything has its own destiny. Sometimes, the way of heaven is so wonderful. If it weren't for this experience, you might not have achieved such success, nor would you have met the person you were meant to meet."
Baili Moqing deeply agreed with this.
If he had not been exiled to Beisha City, perhaps he would not have seen Shu He after her rebirth, nor would he have known that he had a daughter.
Coming out of the National Treasury, Shu He was holding a large box filled with rare treasures.
"Master even has a heaven-defying medicinal ingredient like Ningyuan Dragon Pearl. Who is he?"
She searched the entire Shanwai Valley but couldn't find any Ningyuan Dragon Ball. Unexpectedly, this seemingly inconspicuous old man actually had it!
Moreover, this Ningyuan Dragon Ball is obviously older and more effective than the one she picked last time. It is simply a rare treasure!
Baili Moqing looked at her money-obsessed appearance and smiled indulgently, "There have been rumors in the outside world that there are no longer any first-grade Grandmasters in this world, and that they are figures that only exist in legends."
"Actually, that's not the case. First-grade Grandmasters do exist in this world, but they are extremely rare. You could say they are 'rarely found'!"
At this point, Shu He understood, "You mean, Master Kun is a rare first-grade Grandmaster in this world?"
Baili Moqing nodded, "Yes, he has been in the National Treasury for fifty years! In the entire Tianqi, he is probably the only Grandmaster."
He is one hundred and thirty years old. He came to Kokuzoin fifty years ago, which means he came here when he was eighty years old.
"When we were in Shanwai Valley before, I heard Shen Chuan talk about the Golden Spear God of War Prajna Feng. Wasn't he also a figure from a hundred years ago? That Prajna Feng and our master were from the same period?"
Baili Moqing shook his head. "When Prajna Feng died, Master hadn't yet become a First-Rank Grandmaster, but Master went to see Prajna Feng before he died. No one knows what the two of them talked about."
Shu He nodded, "A first-rank Grandmaster is indeed unfathomable! By the way, does your father know that Master is a first-rank Grandmaster?!"
Baili Moqing couldn't answer this question because he didn't know either.
Logically speaking, the old man was the only one guarding such an important national site as the Kokuzoin, which means that the emperor must have known that the old man was unfathomable.
"If a person like this wanted to overturn the fate of an entire country, it should be easy for him to do so. Yet, the emperor actually allowed him to stay here safely for fifty years."
"Does the emperor regard him as an offering to the apocalypse?"
"What about that old man? Why is he willing to stay in the deep palace? The world is so big, there is no place he can't live in seclusion. Why is he hiding in this deep palace?"
Hearing this, Baili Moqing couldn't help laughing, "I think it must be that sip of tea!"
He loves tea like his life! The palace is naturally the place where he can drink the best tea.
"You mean, Master treats the Imperial Palace like a teahouse?" Shu He also laughed. Only a Grandmaster could treat the Imperial Palace like a teahouse.
Then, Baili Moqing stopped smiling and said, "As you said, this kind of person can easily destroy a country. So, how can a country be so important without a first-grade Grandmaster in charge?"
Shu He once again opened up a new world of vision, seeing a vast corner of the world that many people could not see. "It seems that other countries also have first-grade Grandmasters, but few people know about it."
Baili Moqing nodded, "It's also hard work for this old man. The Tianqi martial arts are in a period of transition. If there hadn't been another first-grade grandmaster, he wouldn't have gone into hiding and become a decaying old man."
Just now, after using his internal energy, his eyes were filled with a longing that had been missing for a long time, and a helpless sigh.
He must also be missing the days when he was full of vigor and vitality, right?
Shu He's eyes were filled with admiration. "Yes, a first-rank Grandmaster can disappear from the world, but he can never truly disappear from it. He is the sharp sword of Tianqi. There's a world of difference between 'having a sword but not using it' and 'not having a sword to use'!"
Having said this, Shu He stopped and looked at him with admiration.
He also stopped and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"The old man is waiting for you." She said with certainty, her eyes full of conviction.
After drinking the apprenticeship tea today, when Master Kun said that to him, there was clearly high hope in his eyes.
Baili Moqing didn't say anything. In fact, he also saw the excitement and expectation in the old man's eyes, but he didn't know if he could meet his expectations.
"You can do it!" She gave him a bright smile.
"When you become the new generation of Grandmaster of Apocalypse, I will become the leader of the Grandmasters!"
"Even the Grand Master has to listen to me. Isn't this much more impressive than being a princess?"
"When the time comes, I'll drag you around everywhere and tell everyone I meet, 'Look, this is our Tianqi's youngest and most handsome Grandmaster! My husband! Isn't he amazing?'"
