Nuwa and Tongtian Refuse to Take a Master? Hongjun Becomes a Clown!

As Hongjun's final words fell...

Hongjun finally shut up.

He did not continue speaking...

Instead, he stood there with a burning gaze, waiting.

Waiting for Tongtian and Nuwa before him to give him a satisfactory reply.

However...

While Hongjun waited...

He continued to scan his surroundings with extreme vigilance.

After all...

Although Tongtian and Nuwa before him had yet to state their positions after hearing his words.

And merely wore thoughtful expressions...

Still...

The expressions of the other cultivators around them had already proved everything quite well.

Especially just now...

After Old Ancestor Hongjun took out the "Four Immortal Slaying Swords" and the "Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram," and explained their uses in detail...

The cultivators throughout the hall erupted in uproar!

After all, the "Four Immortal Slaying Swords" and the "Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram" truly were formidable!

In a sense, they were even more outstanding than the Pangu Banner and Taiji Diagram Old Ancestor Hongjun had given away earlier...

That was why the cultivators had been so shocked and envious.

Therefore...

Old Ancestor Hongjun was actually extremely confident deep down.

He believed he had laid all the groundwork he needed to.

Logically speaking, after all that buildup, even Tongtian and Nuwa should have been moved by it...

Therefore...

He merely needed to wait quietly where he was...

And wait for Tongtian and Nuwa to agree to take him as their master.

Hongjun began waiting calmly.

But he never could have imagined that...

At this moment, whether it was Nuwa or Tongtian...

Their thoughts were completely opposite to Hongjun's!

There was no need to mention Nuwa...

Ever since Hongjun had forced her and her brother into the Demon Court last time...

Nuwa had already come to hate Hongjun to the bone.

So for Hongjun to want to accept Nuwa as his disciple was simply wishful thinking.

The only reason Nuwa had not yet rejected Hongjun...

Was because she had noticed the confidence appearing on Hongjun's face.

She really wanted to see what his expression would look like after she rejected his request to take her as a disciple.

That was why she was deliberately dragging things out.

As for Tongtian...

Tongtian was furious inside as well.

It would have been fine if Old Ancestor Hongjun had not taken out the "Four Immortal Slaying Swords" and the "Immortal Slaying Formation Diagram"...

But the moment he did, Tongtian immediately recalled what Xuan Yang had written in his diary...

Old Ancestor Hongjun was giving him the "Immortal Slaying Sword Formation" so he could bear the Karma owed to the West...

Wasn't this fucking setting Tongtian up?

The more Tongtian thought about it, the angrier he became.

"You still want to take me as your disciple?"

"Go eat shit!"

Tongtian viciously cursed several times in his heart.

After that, he had no intention of wasting any more time here.

He directly replied to Hongjun:

"Sorry, Old Ancestor Hongjun."

"I have no interest in becoming your disciple."

"Let us leave this matter at that!"

Tongtian rejected him cleanly and decisively.

After hearing Tongtian's words...

The cultivators throughout Purple Sky Palace were utterly shocked!

Countless ordinary cultivators could not understand...

Old Ancestor Hongjun had already offered such generous terms, so why was Tongtian still refusing?

Even Yuanshi's expression darkened at this moment, believing Tongtian did not know what was good for him!

Of course...

The one suffering the most was still Old Ancestor Hongjun.

After all, he had originally believed he had done more than enough, and had always been confident that he could bring Tongtian and Nuwa under his wing.

But now, he had failed to win Tongtian over!

It hurt! It hurt so much!

Old Ancestor Hongjun felt as though his heart were bleeding.

With this, it meant one less Saint under his sect.

How much providence would he lose in the unseen because of that?

"Since that is the case..."

"Then let this matter be dropped!"

But Old Ancestor Hongjun still cared about his reputation.

Although his heart was practically bleeding from pain...

How could he show it?

And he certainly could not try to keep Tongtian.

Otherwise, where would he put his old face as Old Ancestor Hongjun?

Thus, Old Ancestor Hongjun could only suppress his emotions and put on an indifferent appearance.

He then looked toward Nuwa.

His heart filled with anticipation.

But Nuwa's reply truly stabbed Old Ancestor Hongjun in the heart once more.

"I am also unwilling to take a master."

Her tone was equally cold as she answered directly and decisively.

It nearly caused Old Ancestor Hongjun to completely lose control!

The cultivators throughout the hall were once again profoundly shocked.

Meanwhile, Taiyi and Di Jun silently gave Nuwa and Tongtian a thumbs-up.

As for Nuwa and Houtu, they had been watching Old Ancestor Hongjun's expression the entire time.

His expression at that moment was incredibly amusing.

Nuwa and Houtu clearly knew he was suffering, yet Old Ancestor Hongjun was still forcing himself to endure it, making him look utterly ridiculous.

Old Ancestor Hongjun finally recovered somewhat.

But by now, all the confidence and smugness on his face had vanished without a trace.

Old Ancestor Hongjun's face darkened like still water.

He replied to Nuwa, "Since that is the case, I will not force the matter."

As soon as he finished speaking.

With one sweep of his hand, he fiercely put away all the Magic Artifacts he had taken out earlier!

He even put away the two strands of "Hongmeng Purple Qi."

In Old Ancestor Hongjun's view.

Although those two strands of "Hongmeng Purple Qi" had originally belonged to Tongtian and Nuwa...

Since they dared refuse to become his disciples...

They could forget about receiving those two opportunities!

In any case, they did not know the original destined owners of the "Hongmeng Purple Qi."

So Old Ancestor Hongjun would absolutely not give them those two strands of "Hongmeng Purple Qi"!

And this was the consequence of offending Old Ancestor Hongjun!

Old Ancestor Hongjun snorted coldly.

Though he said nothing on the surface.

Deep down, he had already become exceedingly enraged.

But at this moment, Nuwa and Tongtian also saw through Old Ancestor Hongjun's intentions.

Their gazes immediately turned icy.

"Hmph! Just as Daoist Friend Xuan Yang said..."

"Because we rejected his request to take us as disciples, he wants to swallow the 'Hongmeng Purple Qi' for himself?"

"Dream on!"

"Even if we used it as decoration, we still would not leave it to you!"

"No matter what, we absolutely will not let you succeed!"

Tongtian immediately stepped forward and spoke sternly:

"Wait, Old Ancestor Hongjun, I still have something to say!"
