He had initially expected Master to agree, but he was taken aback when she didn’t even consider it. Did that mean the four of them held a special place in her heart?
At least, they couldn’t be easily replaced by anyone else.
Wu Zimo couldn’t contain his joy.
However, in front of the Si family, he maintained a serious expression. “Uncle Si, Si Kangning, Master is unwilling. Please return. Master values peace and solitude. It’s best not to disturb her here.”
The elder of the Si family exchanged a glance with Si Kangning.
Si Kangning was at a loss for what to do.
He cleared his throat. “Apologies for the interruption, Miss.”
With that, he led Si Kangning out.
They hadn’t expected to leave empty-handed.
“I truly can’t prehend what she sees in those worthless individuals to bee her disciples. They don’t even possess spiritual roots. How can they be of any use to her? Will they remain worthless for the rest of their lives? If she were to take me in, the oute would be entirely different. Regardless of whether she bees the Tribe Chief or not, I, Si Kangning, can offer her far more benefits than those four,” Si Kangning grumbled with a hint of bitterness in his tone.
He displayed a stark contrast to his behavior in front of Gu Chaoyan moments ago.
The elder of the Si family couldn’t understand it either.
“It’s puzzling.”
“Those four even had the audacity to participate in the petition. What good would that do for them?” Si Kangning continued his rant.
The elder of the Si family shook his head slightly.
“After I defeat them in the petition, she will realize how to choose wisely, ” Si Kangning said through gritted teeth.
The two of them headed back to the Si residence.
In the courtyard.
Just as the Si family departed, Gu Chaoyan sensed that the remaining three disciples had also awakened.
The trio emerged from their rooms with joy upon waking up.
Gu Chaoyan awaited them in the yard.
“Master, we’ve broken through!” they exclaimed excitedly.
After uttering those words, their gazes shifted to Wu Zimo, who had achieved the breakthrough earlier. He stood alongside Gu Chaoyan, and they were genuinely happy for him.
Regardless of who emerged victorious in the petition, as long as one of the four could stand as a barrier for Master, their initial aspiration would be fulfilled.
Hence, it was a cause for celebration whenever anyone’s cultivation level soared.
They were pleased that Zimo had consistently remained ahead of them.
Gu Chaoyan nodded.
The progress of the four disciples exceeded her expectations.
With their breakthroughs in place, it was time for them to prepare for their venture into the mountains.
During their stay in the Bai Clan over the past few days, various disturbances had occurred, hindering their cultivation. It would be best to enter the mountains early and return for the petition. This way, they could avoid such interruptions.
“Now that you’ve made your breakthroughs, make your preparations.
Tomorrow morning, we will venture into the mountains. What awaits us there is uncertain, so be ready,” Gu Chaoyan declared.
“Yes, Master,” the four of them replied in unison.
After giving them instructions, Gu Chaoyan glanced at Sword One and Lingyun. “The same goes for the two of you.”
It was a crucial phase in their cultivation journey, one that required both diligence and determination.
Sword One and Lingyun nodded in agreement.
Gu Chaoyan instructed them to make the necessary preparations.
The following morning, after a brief rest, Gu Chaoyan led them into the mountains.
However, as they departed, Bai Ruiguang arrived with someone in tow..
