Chapter 5: Tang San Takes a Master? Change One Character, What a Mess!
Tang San quickly rushed between the young gatekeeper and Old Jack.
His knees skillfully sank downward.
Thud!
A heavy sound rang out.
With a thud, Tang San dropped to his knees before the young gatekeeper.
"Little San, you..."
Old Jack stared dumbfoundedly at the person shielding him.
"Little San, don't do this. We have our own dignity too!"
Even the young gatekeeper's outstretched hand froze in front of Tang San's face. He was utterly bewildered.
Tang San did not know why he had suddenly knelt, but somehow, kneeling here felt remarkably comfortable.
Tang San quickly stepped between them and forcefully shoved the young gatekeeper!
Tang San quickly stepped between them and forcefully knelt before the young gatekeeper!
Ye Fan had changed "shove" to "kneel," earning another point. Small changes like this did not matter much.
The young gatekeeper cleared his throat.
"I'm telling you, don't think kneeling and begging me will help. There's no way I'm letting you in."
Tang San raised his head to look at the young gatekeeper's hand before his face, then followed the arm upward and sincerely looked at the young gatekeeper's face. His own face was full of pleading. Tang San truly wanted to enter Notting College and study...
Ye Fan made another slight change, replacing "look" with "lick."
Tang San's actions immediately proceeded according to the altered wording.
Tang San raised his head and directly licked the young gatekeeper's hand.
After that one lick, goosebumps instantly rose all over Old Jack, Ye Fan, and the young gatekeeper.
The young gatekeeper especially shuddered all over.
Yet Tang San did not stop. He licked the man's hand twice more.
The young gatekeeper was completely stunned.
I'm filthy...
"All right, all right, you two can go in. Go in."
The young gatekeeper quickly took a step back and repeatedly rubbed his right hand against his clothes. The force and speed were so intense that it practically started smoking.
"What are you making such a commotion about here?"
Master Yu Xiaogang appeared.
"Master, you're back."
Suppressing his nausea, the young gatekeeper greeted Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang walked forward step by step without even looking at him.
He had seen everything that had just happened.
Yu Xiaogang quickly began speaking with Old Jack. When he learned that these were two children with Innate Full Soul Power—
His pupils abruptly widened.
In an instant, he felt that his future finally held hope!
Blue Silver Hammer: zero attack power, shatters on contact...
A book: no idea what it was for.
He quickly completed the handover with Old Jack.
"Leave these two children to me."
"Which one of you is Tang San?"
"I am."
Tang San, still kneeling on the ground, quickly stood up and patted the dirt off his knees with two slaps.
The entire sequence was extremely practiced.
Anyone who did not know better would have thought he had knelt countless times before.
Yu Xiaogang took Tang San into Notting College first.
He moved very quickly, as though he feared Ye Fan would follow them.
When it came to tricking someone into taking a master, fewer people naturally made it easier to fool them.
"Xiao Fan, hurry inside too."
Old Jack smiled warmly at Ye Fan.
"Village Chief Grandpa, be careful on your way back."
After reminding Old Jack, Ye Fan followed them inside as well.
After Tang San and Yu Xiaogang talked for a while, Tang San was thoroughly fooled by Yu Xiaogang and decided to make Yu Xiaogang his teacher...
The plot quickly updated.
A thought suddenly came to Ye Fan's mind. If he changed it this way, the upcoming plot would definitely undergo major changes.
He silently changed the "teacher" character into "wife."
After they finished talking, Tang San immediately felt that the Master before him was exactly the person he needed.
He took a step back and made a movement Yu Xiaogang found very familiar.
Just like when he had knelt earlier.
Yu Xiaogang instantly felt touched.
He had not misjudged him. Tang San was going to solemnly take him as his master.
Thud!
Tang San's right knee heavily struck the ground.
Yu Xiaogang froze. Why did this kneeling posture seem a little different?
Tang San elegantly used his right hand to grasp Yu Xiaogang's left.
"Master, I bow beneath the robes of your knowledge."
"Please!"
"Take me as your wife!"
Yu Xiaogang's body suddenly trembled.
His mind buzzed.
It felt like being dragged awake halfway through the night.
Yu Xiaogang swallowed.
"Little San, don't you know that the gap between us is huge?"
"This is completely impossible!"
Tang San quickly shook his head.
"I don't care."
"Master, just agree to it."
"If you don't agree, I'll kneel here forever!"
Yu Xiaogang truly did not know what to say at this point.
Everything had clearly been about Tang San taking him as his master.
How had it ended up like this?!
Should I agree or not?
Tang San was still so young.
If he refused, would Tang San still possibly take him as his master in the future?
If he did not accept, would he hurt Tang San's feelings and make him resent him later?
A series of footsteps came from afar.
Yu Xiaogang glanced to the side. Ye Fan was steadily approaching.
He did not have much time left.
Finally, Yu Xiaogang made a decision that defied his ancestors.
"Fine!"
"I agree!"
"But you cannot tell outsiders about this. And in public, you must call me teacher!"
Tang San paused. "Why?"
Yu Xiaogang quickly explained.
"After all, I'm already this old."
"Suddenly having a..."
"What would others think of me?"
Tang San nodded. "All right, Teacher."
"As long as we know it in our hearts, what does a form of address matter?"
Yu Xiaogang quickly stepped forward and helped Tang San up, finally breathing a sigh of relief.
Plot modification complete. Yu Xiaogang agreed to Tang San's request. The two did not become master and disciple. Reward: complete theoretical knowledge of Soul Masters, Soul Beasts, Soul Skills, Soul Bones, Soul Tools, and more. Guaranteed correct, absolutely error-free.
The system's voice rang out, and a massive flood of memories rapidly poured into Ye Fan's mind.
It was an unimaginably terrifying amount of information.
Ye Fan stood frozen in place for several seconds before finally absorbing it all.
Most importantly, everything within came with precautions. As long as one cultivated step by step, nothing could go wrong. There would be no danger of cultivation deviation.
Anything produced by the system was bound to be top-quality!
