17 Seto Luang (2/2)
Although Yenmawasn't impressed with the old fart, he still replied to him. This was solely due to the fact that the old man was sincere and didn't have any bad intentions, ”Its nothing. I trust Senior's words.”
”Hmmm… Since Yepong has asked me to consider taking you in as my disciple, I will need to test you first.”
”Before all that let me introduce myself first, I'm Seto Luang from Yukosaka Province. The region we are in currently is not under any province and is hence considered a remote region. Yukosaka Province is the closest province from this region. The reason why I came here 10 years ago was that I had decided to live the rest of my life in peace and tranquility.”
”Anyways, You need to undertake three tests in order for me to take you in as my disciple.”, Luang said with a hint of pride as he looked towards the skies in the horizon as if he could see through the mysteries of life and death itself. Even Yenma had to reluctantly inwardly agree that the old man did feel very sage-like at that moment but the next moment Yenma felt ashamed for even thinking that the old man could ever be impressive.
”Ahem* you will only be a disciple in name if you manage to pass all three of my tests.”, Luang said without even a hint of embarrassment.
'What the actual fvk?', Yenma resisted his urge to beat up the old man.
Yepong who was seated nearby showed no difference in his expression as if he knew everything beforehand.
Looking at the grim expression of Yenma, Luang coughed lightly, ”Don't feel depressed… work hard.. perhaps I might consider making you my inheriting-disciple if you have the perseverance and the willpower!”
Yenma felt his mood become heavier but he didn't say anything.
Luang continued on, ”First test: I need to check your meridians. If you have crippled meridians or some meridian-related problem… then you are no-good and you will be eliminated in the first test itself.”
Yenma simply nodded and let Luang check his meridians, it was simple really. Luang just passed his Zu Qi through Yenma's body to check the condition of his meridians.
As Luang passed his Zu Qi through Yenma's body, he couldn't help but tremble and his eyes constricted as if in immense shock, ”T-this...this...”
Hearing Luang's shocked voice, Yenma couldn't help but feel a bit excited.
'Could it be I'm some once-in-a-world type of talented genius?', Yenma couldn't help but imagine himself standing at the peak of the path of cultivation.
Luang soon calmed down as he continued, ”your meridians…. In my life I have never seen… I never thought…. That one's meridians could ever be so fvked up to this extent.”
