Chapter 250: Chapter 33: Delighted to Obtain the Sky Pride! My Xuanyao Lineage is Going to Rise Up_1

…

Hearing these words, Wang Shouzhe felt a sudden heaviness in his heart.

Although Master Changchun had not displayed the might of the Purple Abode Realm, nor deliberately suppressed him, the other party’s frivolous words still made him feel a chill down his spine, as if a great disaster was imminent.

“Master, I was just joking around with my junior sister. How could I possibly take her money seriously?” Wang Shouzhe laughed awkwardly and immediately pulled out the more than ten thousand Qian Gold to hand over to Master Changchun. “Please, Master, return this money to my junior sister.”

“Although your items might be a bit expensive, they are filled with wonderful ideas. Since Green Fern likes them, let her do as she pleases,” Master Changchun was indifferent. At his level, such small amounts of money were not a concern. Moreover, it was Green Fern’s own money. How she chose to spend it was entirely up to her.

“So, what does Master mean?” Wang Shouzhe was somewhat baffled.

“Everyone, leave.”

Rather than answering directly, Master Changchun glanced at everyone else and casually issued dismissal.

All the disciples in Changchun Valley immediately obeyed and left with their salutes.

The Instructing Dao Palace was instantly left with only Master Changchun and Wang Shouzhe.

Master Changchun glanced at Wang Shouzhe, and Wang Shouzhe suddenly felt as though he had been seen through, all his thoughts seemingly transparent before this man.

Wang Shouzhe’s nerves immediately went on edge.

However, just when he thought Master Changchun was going to reprimand him, Master Changchun suddenly sighed, “Green Fern is different from the other disciples. She is not born of a prominent family, but a child I found in the wild. Having grown up in Changchun Valley from an early age, her understanding of many things is different from ordinary people.”

After a pause, his tone became serious, “She may have been rude just now. As her master, I apologize on her behalf.”

“Master, that’s too kind of you,” Wang Shouzhe quickly saluted in return, saying seriously, “I was just joking around with my junior sister, Green Fern. She’s pure and innocent, not at all annoying.”

“Hmm. Broad-minded, brave, and cunning; indeed a promising youngster.”

Seeing this, Master Changchun also felt a lot better.

He smiled at Wang Shouzhe, praising, “You, an outsider, are actually more outstanding than many of my core disciples. Despite your young age, you’ve already cultivated the ‘Longevity Youth True Verses’ to such an extent. Truly a legacy pearl in the vast ocean.”

“Master flatters me, I am too humble…” Wang Shouzhe modestly replied, “There is still a great gap between me and my senior brothers.”

“I heard you say earlier that the Wang’s No. 7 wheat variety cannot be re-cultivated from its roots.” Master Changchun invited Wang Shouzhe to sit down with him, his attitude warm, “Can you explain to me?”

Wang Shouzhe was quietly speculating.

Could it be that Master Changchun already knew that he was responsible for the Wang’s No. 7 wheat variety?

Even though Wang’s No.7 is quite good, in the eyes of the entire Academic Palace, it’s nothing more than a trivial matter. It’s unlikely that Master Changchun would covet it.

Well, it must just be curiosity.

With this in mind, he immediately replied earnestly, “Master, this wheat variety was unintentionally created by me. Contrary to the cultivation of grains by various families, my approach was to first cultivate seeds that could not reproduce after being soaked in a special liquid, and then continuously optimize them to increase yield.”

“I see.”

Master Changchun seemed enlightened and couldn’t help but laugh, “You have a unique way of thinking, prioritizing prevention of others cracking it, then considering the yield of the crop. Your approach is right, but it’s a bit too petty. You lack a grand vision.”

“Master, as the saying goes, ‘those who succeed will benefit the world, those who fail will only look after themselves.'” Wang Shouzhe stood respectfully, calmly saying, “As the son of a small family, who relies on these crops to sustain him, one should be a small-minded man before being a gentleman.”

The implication was that if the Wang family had the same power as the Purple Abode Academy, its ideas and vision would naturally be different.

“You make a good point. You have unique ideas and do not blindly follow others.” Master Changchun nodded approvingly, “Would you like to join the Academic Palace and become a core disciple under my tutelage?”

Upon hearing these words, Wang Shouzhe was taken aback.

Others would do anything to become a core disciple, but he barely spoke a few words before Master Changchun took the initiative to extend an olive branch to him.

Should he accept, or not?

Should he even have to ask?

“I humbly thank Master Changchun for the offer.” Wang Shouzhe saluted Master Changchun and bowed deeply, “However, as the head of a family with responsibilities on my shoulders, I may not be able to stay at the Academic Palace for long. I hope Master will forgive me.”

“But wherever Master needs my help, I will do everything in my power to assist.”

Of course, this was a tactful refusal.

Wang Shouzhe honestly had no interest in studying at the Academic Palace.

Master Changchun looked him in the eye, his expression somewhat regretful, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.

“That’s fine then.”

He merely thought Wang Shouzhe showed some potential and didn’t want to see such a pearl covered in dust. Since the other party had no intention of it, he wouldn’t insist on it with his status as a master.

“You do show some potential,” Master Changchun commented, “Since today we have a karmic connection, and I’ve drunk your Spiritual Wine, I’ll give you an hour. Do you have any questions about your cultivation?”
