"Didn't you say you left the island to find a master and learn?"
Ji Yuan smiled at the monkey before him, a hint of teasing in his voice.
Sun Wutian froze. He scratched his cheek, then his ear, before finally stammering, "Senior... could it be that you want to take me as your disciple?"
As he spoke, Sun Wutian's feelings were a tangled mess.
On one hand, he truly had not expected this Horned Dragon Clan senior, whom he had only just met, to think so highly of him and offer him such an opportunity.
The man even seemed to want him as a disciple. He would be lying if he said he was not moved.
On the other hand, it put him in a difficult position.
When Sun Wutian had stormed off, he had imagined finding a mighty cultivator of the Void Refinement Stage as his master. Only then would the trip be worthwhile.
At the very least, his master should be at the Spirit Transformation Peak Stage and on the verge of breaking through to Void Refinement.
This Horned Dragon senior had a powerful aura and an extraordinary bearing, but his cultivation was plain to see: he had only just entered the Spirit Transformation Stage.
If he, a dignified Spiritbright Stone Monkey with a First-Grade Bloodline, took a Spirit Transformation Cultivator as his master, would people not laugh their teeth out?
The monkey was torn.
He did not dare refuse outright. After all, these were three great demons with First-Grade Bloodlines. Any one of them could squash and knead a little Nascent Soul Realm monkey like him.
But he could not bear to accept, either. Would that not betray his pure heart, devoted to the Dao?
Dong Qian had heard Sun Wutian too and turned to Ji Yuan
