C163 Direct Disciple (1/2)
Hearing that Han Chen wanted Ming Ruo to make his own choice, Elder Mu suddenly had the urge to strangle him, and silently cursed how heartless he was. While Fourth Elder Liu Li was more composed as she looked at Ming Ruo with anticipation.
It was the first time that a competition between two elders for a disciple had happened in Mystical Peak. The disciples on the stage watched this scene with great interest, while the other three elders simply stood on the sidelines.
Ming Ruo raised her beautiful eyes and swept her gaze across the two elders. She then extended her slender jade hand and pointed at the Elder Mu, and said softly, ”I choose the Sixth Elder.”
”Hahahaha.” ”Hahaha, you have eyes, master will definitely bring you up to be the most outstanding Psionic Magician in the entire Mystical Peak, hahaha.”
The audience was surprised. Under normal circumstances, ordinary people would have chosen the Fourth Elder.
Fourth Elder Liu Li could not help but frown, and glared at Elder Mu in dissatisfaction before asking, ”Little girl, why didn't you choose me? Do you think I can't compare to this old man? ”
”It's not like that.” Ming Ruo shook her head. Sensing that the two seniors did not have any evil intentions, her courage increased a little.
”Then why?”
”Reporting to senior, I heard you two speak earlier. You already have several direct disciples under you, but the Sixth Elder has not had a direct disciple yet, so Ming Ruo felt that the Sixth Elder was a little pitiful. ”
Poor? Everyone present were stunned, this was the first time someone said that the clan elders of the Mystical Peak were pitiful.
Han Chen was also shocked by Ming Ruo's innocence, and hurriedly stepped forward to explain, ”Elders, Ming Ruo is still young, if she said something wrong, I hope that the two elders can forgive him.”
However, Han Chen's worries were a little excessive. The Fourth Elder and Elder Mu did not seem angry at all.
”Good, good!” Elder Mu took a deep breath, then laughed in relief, ”I didn't see the wrong person, haha.”
Ming Ruo's kindness had not only infected the Elder Mu, even many of the inner disciples in the arena had their own thoughts.
”Liu-Li, you have nothing to say now, right?” Elder Mu's face flashed with pride.
”Forget it, forget it!” The Fourth Elder felt that it was a bit of a pity, but had already made her decision. Hmph, don't you dare ruin such a beautiful piece of jade. ”
”You don't need to remind me about this. You just need to take care of your disciples.”
”Hmph.” The Fourth Elder snorted unhappily, and looked at Ming Ruo with a regretful look. Then, in a flash, she disappeared from everyone's sight.
After the Fourth Elder had left, the Elder Mu turned to the nearby Third Elder and said, ”Third Elder, this girl is now my direct disciple. Naturally, she can stay in the inner sect. As for today's farce, let's call it quits! ”
The Third Elder frowned, and looked at Han Chen with a somewhat apathetic gaze. Evicting Ming Ruo was not his goal, what he needed to do was only to target Han Chen. However, he did not expect the situation to end up like this. He could only silently nod his head.
”It's up to you.” After saying that, without waiting for the other party to say anything, he too left the Colosseum in an afterimage.
The liveliness was almost over. The crowd in the audience dispersed amidst a wave of noisy discussion.
Deng Ling and Huayun City were naturally so angry that their lungs were about to explode. Unfortunately, with the support of the Sixth Elder, it wouldn't be that easy for them to touch Han Chen. The two of them looked at each other, then left in silence. Before Mei Ling left, he could not help but look at Ming Ruo a few times. Her eyes revealed complex emotions, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Thank you for your help just now, Elder Mu. Han Chen respectfully cupped his fists and bowed. Now that Ming Ruo was able to stay here and do so, the heavy burden in his heart had finally been lifted.
”Ai!” Elder Mu waved his hands, shook his head, and said, ”Brat, I should thank you for this matter. Bring me such a obedient disciple, haha.”
They had just met, yet Elder Mu was so satisfied with Ming Ruo. It could be seen that in the future, they would definitely receive concern from many parties. Han Chen could be considered to be giving an explanation to the dead Lin Wei and his wife.
”Ming Ruo, you really make us jealous.” Xin Lan was also very happy as she smiled gently.
”Yeah, it's only been a few days. Just two elders fighting over you, we don't even dare to dream about it! ” Wu Jun started to joke around too.
Ming Ruo laughed, then said to the Elder Mu, ”Sixth Elder.”
”Hmm?” Without waiting for her to finish speaking, Elder Mu opened her mouth and interrupted, ”Girl, you really aren't sensible. Do you still call me Sixth Elder?”
”Eh?”
”Ming Ruo, quickly call me master.” Han Chen quickly reminded him.
”Oh, yes. Ming Ruo greets Master.” Ming Ruo stuck out her tongue mischievously, looking very cute.
”That's more like it! ”Haha.” Elder Mu nodded in satisfaction, ”If you have something to say, then say it!”
