165 Sky Xuan Apprentice (2/2)

He had never realized that the methods he had used to ferment this wine had been made available to him due to the research and hard work of countless people who had devoted their entire lives to the art of making wine!

And in that ancient world, one such devoted man had just tasted a modern and refined wine...

The impact was…. Simply unspeakable…..

Old Song's Xuan Qi had already reached the Sky Xuan realm, which ranked him amongst some of the most powerful individuals in this world, and practically made him untouchable in the eyes of the common man. But this very man had always upheld ”Making wine is my best attribute”. Had he invested the same amount of energy and devotion to his martial training, then his martial achievements would have crossed all barriers!

Old Song's heart was experiencing a storm of emotions, but his emotions were still comforting him in a way. On one hand, his arrogance, pride and confidence on being the best wine maker in world had been shattered, but on the other hand, he had suddenly found a wine which was superior to his best product by a very huge margin!

It was almost unfathomable to imagine Old Song's shock…..

Jun Mo Xie had just transformed into a man beyond compare in his eyes….. almost as if he was…. An incarnation of the god of wine himself!

[Oh Heavens! This world actually has such a wine! And there's a man in this world who can actually make such wine! If he isn't the god of wine, then what is he?]

From being a proud and confident man, he had been transformed into a beaten one!

This was equivalent to the defeat of his entire life's persistence! The collapse of life's support and driving force!

The pub had gone completely quite, and remained that way for a while; the prince was the first one to speak: ”This wine making contest of today's….” his voice still harbored a lingering taste of excitement…..

[My wine is nothing compared to this youngster's wine… he's right… my wine is rubbish! My wine has no merit in front of his… there's absolutely no competition… not even one shred of it... I Song Shang have travelled the entire world, and I've never tasted anything this divine!]

Song Shang's voice seemed extremely excited: ”I Song Shang, concede!”

Then he stood up as his eyes flashed a trace a frenzy, and walked towards Jun Mo Xie; then, he knelt down on both his knees, and lowered his head to the ground with a 'thud': ”Master, please accept your apprentice's respect!”

Jun Mo Xie hastily stood up: ”This...”

His Royal Highness and the Solitary Eagle looked at each other dumbstruck!

It was a while before the Solitary Eagle was able to find his words: ”Old Song has accepted you as his master, little brother. Your wine is peerless, but don't disgrace him; don't humiliate him!”

The final judgement had been passed!

Jun Mo Xie remained lost in his thoughts for a long while before he finally smiled, and said: ”Yes, in that case, Song Shang, get up; I accept you.”

[What is going on?]

[Who says the sky cannot fall?] The prince had always taken these words as a joke… but watching Song Shang, a dignified Sky Xuan expert, one of the top assassins of the world transforming into a disciple of an ordinary youngster was no joke...

Becoming an apprentice is a life-changing decision!

There are five cardinal relations in our way of life, parents and child, master and disciple, husband and wife, elder and younger siblings, and friends. Even though master and disciple relationship isn't the first priority, but it's the most important one!

A master is more important than a parent! Parents only shape one's body, but it's one's master that guides one to success in life!

[Given Song Shang's identity and status, how can he ever even think of becoming a disciple to this lowly and unknown kid?!]

The prince had obviously underestimated Old Song's obsession with the art of wine making!

Knowledge knows no age! As far as Old Song was concerned, this was his path to enlightenment!

Even Jun Mo Xie was a little surprised, and was still pondering; [in case Old Song goes back on his word, then he could betray me anytime….. I never really thought that he would...]

But the hitman Jun wasn't the kind to go back on his word!

[Letting go of a Sky Xuan apprentice would obviously be a very foolish decision! Even though he only intends to learn the art of wine-making from me, but I can never be sure of trusting him given his identity of being a Sky Xuan expert! He is mysterious, and may be backed by a powerful force...]

[So if he becomes my subordinate, will I truly be able to control him?]

Jun Mo Xie was a bit excited at the thought, but then he suddenly woke up to the responsibility of being a teacher, and realized that he will now be responsible for his disciple's education! A superficial halo emerged within his mind, which told him to shoulder his responsibility!

”Old Song, do you know why you lost?” Jun Mo Xie suddenly felt the urge to touch his beard, which would have made him look more respectable in appearance, but then suddenly realized that he was only sixteen, and obviously didn't have one... left with no other option, he stopped his hand from going upwards and redirected it to scratch his legs instead.
