CHAPTER 1687: CHAPTER 1687: SHUSHAN (1)

"Alright, stop crying." Dao Xuzi was finally annoyed by the crying, "If you keep crying, this robe of mine will become a rag..." He said disdainfully as he took off his outer robe and threw it to Tang Wanqian, "Making me sick enough to vomit last night’s meal..."

Tang Wanqian didn’t mind, and actually held the robe as a cloth, starting to wipe his face and nose, "I just want to take on a disciple, why is it so difficult?"

Yang Ruxin twitched the corner of her mouth but managed to hold back her laughter.

"It’s really hard to take on a disciple like yours, considering all those messy affairs of the Tang Sect, how dangerous and troublesome it is? You want Xinxin as your disciple, wouldn’t she have to follow the trouble?" Dao Xuzi tapped the back of his left hand with the palm of his right hand, "Don’t talk about ’skills never being a burden’; this girl may lack inner strength, but she is inherently capable. Along with my medical skills, she could dominate the Wulin... Otherwise, could you have emerged victoriously?" The Blood-drinking Sword was retrieved from Wanren Villa, and that indeed relied on true skills, "Moreover, your Tang Sect is a chaotic mess. If Xinxin acknowledges you, she’d have to clean up after you..." Tang Kun is your disciple, becoming the bane of the Tang Sect is because you, the Sect Leader, could not recognize people well, isn’t that trouble you brought onto yourself?

"What exactly do you mean?" Tang Wanqian glared, "Don’t you want to go to Shushan and have a look? I’ve wanted to go there all my life."

"Shushan..." Dao Xuzi’s eyes instantly brightened.

"Yes, Shushan." Tang Wanqian raised his eyebrows slightly, "Back in the day, you almost died there, you know, so technically, I’m your lifesaver..."

"Enough, my disciple saved you too, let’s not talk about things that are useless." Dao Xuzi waved his hand and then looked at Yang Ruxin, "Why don’t you also acknowledge him as a master?"

Yang Ruxin frowned, what’s the old man implying? Isn’t this change in attitude a bit too unprincipled? Shushan? Could it be the Shushan she thought of?

Dao Xuzi smiled brightly, "So have you reached a consensus?"

"Heihei, isn’t Master thinking of getting you a bit more benefits?" Dao Xuzi chuckled, "For the sake of Shushan, just agree, anyway, you can learn his little skills with a bit of spare time..."

"Is it really for my benefit?" Yang Ruxin raised an eyebrow slightly, "But I don’t feel it’s to my advantage, it seems more like something you’re interested in..."

"Oh dear, dear disciple, it’s all the same," Dao Xuzi pleaded.

"Then first tell me what’s with Shushan?" Yang Ruxin curled her lips, wondering if it was the Shushan she had heard about on TV, where Nuwa resided, though later it was said that Shushan is Emei Mountain?, but Emei Mountain has only monkeys, why would an old man have an interest in monkeys?

"Shushan..." Dao Xuzi exchanged a look with Tang Wanqian, a hint of excitement in his tone, "Xinxin, I told you about Xiaolun’s background before, right?"

Yang Ruxin blinked her eyes, then nodded, "You said it was the egg of a serpent left by Nuwa in the human world, hatched after tens of thousands of years, then every hundred years it undergoes metamorphosis. When I encountered Xiaolun, he had just undergone metamorphosis not long ago... But you said he is a hermaphrodite, yet now he has found a partner and had children..." Gu Qingheng said a little golden snake was born, no one knows how it mutated.
