Han Li reached out with his right hand and gently took the Young Girl's delicate wrist, slowly circulating his spiritual power through her body. Before long, he released her wrist.
"Dual spiritual roots. Your aptitude really is excellent!"
Han Li gazed at the Young Girl's face and murmured to himself.
At his words, delight spread across the faces of the Young Girl and the Old Man. They thought Han Li was about to agree to take her as his disciple.
But Han Li abruptly changed tack:
"Unfortunately, I don't take disciples! Otherwise, your aptitude would more than qualify you to become mine."
His words hit the grandfather and granddaughter like a bucket of cold water, leaving them frozen in place.
Naruto wouldn't take disciples, and neither would Han Li. The Young Girl's face filled with disappointment.
After all, having a master at the Foundation Establishment stage would be an enormous boon for a rogue cultivator!
What a pity.
Seeing the disappointment on the Young Girl's face, Han Li suddenly smiled and said softly:
"Although I can't take you as my disciple, I can introduce you to one of my senior brothers. Whether you succeed in becoming his disciple will depend on whether he's satisfied with you."
"Really?"
The Young Girl's disappointed expression instantly brightened at his words.
Without another word, Han Li took out a Sound Transmission Talisman. After murmuring a few words into the spirit talisman, he handed it to the Young Girl along with a Communication Jade Token.
"Take this spirit talisman and jade token to the Hundred Herb Garden in Yellow Maple Valley and look for a senior named Ma. Whether you can become his disciple will depend on your fortune."
Han Li spoke with a calm expression.
The Young Girl hadn't expected another opportunity after Naruto
