Heaven Slaying Blade

Chapter 1395: What a Talent


You're too bold!

The attendant, who had unintentionally overheard everything, admired Chu Mo to the point of prostrating in awe internally.

Angering Jiang Caiyue and yet enduring until now without making a move, isn't he the first to do so? At least before this, the attendant, who had entered the Trial Field for three years, had never heard of anyone else achieving this.

Chu Mo leaned back in his chair, looking at the furious Jiang Caiyue, whose delicate and fair face, like that of a porcelain doll, was now flushed with anger. But Chu Mo showed no extra reaction, speaking languidly, "I don't know you."

"..."

Jiang Caiyue was utterly speechless, with black lines all over her forehead!

The lethality of this sentence was too strong!

Since I don't know you, how can I tell if you're a good person or a bad one? Would a bad person have a 'bad' sign written on their face?

But the problem is, how can you not know me? Why don't you know me? It's impossible for you not to know me!

Jiang Caiyue felt a tumultuous storm in her heart, raging with fury. Yet, as a girl, she really couldn't say that out loud. Even though she thought so in her mind, even she would find it a bit too narcissistic if it were spoken aloud.

After taking a deep breath, Jiang Caiyue looked at Chu Mo and said in a firm voice, "I am the daughter of the Luotian Jiang Family; my name is Jiang Caiyue. I swear, I have no ill intentions!"

As Jiang Caiyue spoke, she watched Chu Mo, who remained indifferent, his weary appearance genuinely igniting the impulse in her to slap him hard. If it weren't for fear of frightening the person across from her... Okay, I'll endure!

"I am from a small place and have just arrived," Chu Mo said indifferently: "I don't know about the Trial Field, and I'm even less informed about your Luotian. So I'm unaware of any Jiang Family, Li Family, Zhang Family, or Wang Family. Therefore, I'm sorry, all of this that you're mentioning has no meaning to me. I only want to know, what do you want to do?"

"..." Jiang Caiyue rolled her eyes internally, what does she mean what do I want to do? Didn't I just say it? I want to take her as my disciple!

Jiang Caiyue looked coldly at Chu Mo, her heart was churning, looking at the boy's demeanor, how could he possibly seem like someone who knows nothing? A Quasi-Supreme who knows nothing, daring to act like this in the Trial Field? He would have been beaten to death a hundred times over, wouldn't he?

But there was really nothing Jiang Caiyue could do about what Chu Mo had said! What could she say? That our Jiang Family isn't just any ordinary family, and even the Imperial Clan of Luotian doesn't matter in our eyes? What if this guy responds with another line: What is the Imperial Clan of Luotian? How should she answer then?

Therefore, this little devil in the eyes of countless Trial Field cultivators could only patiently explain, "I want to take her as my disciple because she has the same special physique, so I have good insights on how a person with this physique should cultivate. If a Heavenly Genius like her doesn't find the correct cultivation method, she will definitely be delayed! Can you understand what I mean?"

"Oh," Chu Mo responded and then furrowed his brows, beginning to ponder.

He did indeed hesitate, but his knowledge of Luotian Immortal Domain and other major realms was too limited! Therefore, it was difficult to discern whether Jiang Caiyue's seemingly sincere words were truly genuine.

The reason he did not accept Ye Qing as a disciple was actually to avoid burdening her one day in the future. He also thought that if there was a better place for her, he should let her go, as always following by his side was not a good thing for her. Chu Mo knew before that with Ye Qing's talent, entering the Trial Field would definitely catch the eye of the strong. But he did not expect that this day would come so quickly; so fast that he had to make a choice without having had the chance to understand the situation fully.

Jiang Caiyue, however, looked at Chu Mo with anger brewing in her heart, thinking "Oh" - what does that even mean? Speak up already!

After a while, Chu Mo finally spoke up. This time, his attitude was much more sincere. He looked at Jiang Caiyue, "Sorry, I do not mean to make light of you, nor do I harbor any malice. Indeed, I don't understand the situation, nor do I understand what kind of person you are, and even less about your family. If you truly wish well for Ye Qing, I don't have much to object, but there are two conditions."

"Tell me," Jiang Caiyue's attitude shifted, the sincerity in her voice slightly eased the anger in her heart, and she looked at Chu Mo.

Chu Mo said, "First, if—and I mean if—Ye Qing truly becomes your disciple, you must give me a guarantee that she will not be harmed in the Trial Field. I have heard that this place is like the Asura battleground, dubbed the genius meat grinder. I don't want someone like her, a Heavenly Genius, to fall here..."

"Young Master..." Ye Qing on the other side was getting anxious. Indeed, she had no experience and hardly understood anything. But that did not mean she was without sense. When she realized that the young master was truly considering letting her become someone else's disciple, she panicked at once.

Having walked out from that sealed world, here, she was alone without kin; the only person she could trust was the young master alone! If the young master would abandon her, she felt she would completely lose all support from then on.

Chu Mo showed a smile to Ye Qing, signaling her to remain calm.

At this time, Jiang Caiyue said, "Rest assured, I can swear by my primordial spirit, Jiang Caiyue will never do anything to betray Ye Qing. Her name is Ye Qing, right?" Seeing Chu Mo nod, Jiang Caiyue continued, "If she becomes my disciple, she will be the person closest to me in this world. To tell you the truth, I have never taken any disciples before! If she enters under my wing, then she is my foremost disciple! Do you understand what that means?"

Chu Mo nodded; of course, he understood, just like with Fang Lan. She was his true foremost disciple!

Jiang Caiyue went on to say, "Therefore, I will ensure her safety in the Luotian Immortal Domain. Believe me, by my side, not a soul will dare to harm her! What Asura ground, what genius meat grinder, those are for... for others!" She wanted to say those were for people like you, but she stopped herself just before the words slipped out, which was really not easy for her. Those familiar with Jiang Caiyue knew well that this woman had a bold tongue, never fearing to offend others.

"Tell me the second condition," Jiang Caiyue looked at Chu Mo.

"Second, this matter requires her own consent. I cannot decide for her, and even if I could, such a matter requires her to make her own choices!" said Chu Mo.

"I don't..." Ye Qing wanted to immediately refuse, but Jiang Caiyue covered her mouth with a hand and then glared fiercely at Chu Mo: "Aren't you spouting nonsense? If you let her choose, what does she understand?"

"The key point is, I don't understand either!" Chu Mo shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, with a helpless expression on his face.

But this expression, in Jiang Caiyue's eyes, was unbearably insufferable. Her eyebrows shot up, and suddenly she exclaimed, "That fellow over there, you've listened enough, haven't you? Come out at once and explain to this ignoramus here who this lady is!"

Plop...

A sound of falling to the ground came from over there, then that Quasi-Supreme Realm guy scrambled to his feet and appeared in front of the three people, rolling and crawling.

"Jiang... Miss Jiang... I really didn't mean to eavesdrop... I... I...

"Enough with the nonsense, explain to this good-for-nothing here, who I am!" Jiang Caiyue said impatiently, her hand still covering Ye Qing's mouth and not yet removed.

Ye Qing also had the cultivation of a Quasi-Supreme, but she couldn't move at all!

Jiang Caiyue suppressing Chu Mo would be a daydream, but suppressing Ye Qing was a piece of cake.

The guy, shivering all over, said a few words to Chu Mo. Overall, his words were clear, objective, and fair.

Only then did Chu Mo realize that this Jiang Caiyue, ranked tenth on the Trial Field Heavenly Ranking, was not just from a strong background but also quite excellent herself. She was a well-known Heavenly Genius, not a fraud. Most importantly, Jiang Caiyue had a great appreciation for talent. She was the type who gets fixated upon seeing a genius.

Any genius who caught her eye, unless they had an equally powerful background, would find it hard to escape her recruitment. However, the fact that she was thinking of taking a disciple in Ye Qing, she truly was the first!

"Now do you understand? Still think I'm a scammer?" Jiang Caiyue glared at Chu Mo hatefully, then she let go of Ye Qing's mouth and said to her, "Don't say anything, let your master speak!"

As she spoke, Jiang Caiyue turned her gaze to Chu Mo: "Think carefully, if you really care about her, you should understand how to choose. Otherwise, I'd really start to doubt your intentions and motives."

"Hehe, she's my little maid, what motives and goals could I possibly have?" Chu Mo began with a jest and then said seriously, "Since you've really proven that there's nothing wrong with you, and you have no other ulterior motives..."

Jiang Caiyue rolled her eyes dramatically, and the Quasi-Supreme guy beside her was also sweating bullets. He thought to himself that the guts on this guy were truly incomparable!

Too bold!

He really dares to say anything.

Chu Mo said: "Then, I think it would be better for Ye Qing to follow you than to stay with me."

"Master..." Ye Qing's eyes brimmed with tears, looking pitifully at Chu Mo: "Master, are you going to leave me behind?"

Ye Qing didn't harbor any other feelings for Chu Mo, but after several months of being together, she had come to regard Chu Mo as both a master and kin.

Chu Mo shook his head and chuckled bitterly: "Ye Qing, you don't understand what the Trial Field is. To tell you the truth, here, I... can't even ensure my own safety. Since Miss Jiang from the Jiang Family values you so highly, you would be much better off with her than with me."

"I'm not afraid of death... I just want to stay by your side," Ye Qing said in a low voice, looking rather pitiable.

Chu Mo steeled his heart and said sternly: "Regard this as repaying me, and I don't need anyone to take care of me by my side! Staying with me, you would only hold me back!" As he spoke, Chu Mo sighed in his heart: One day you will understand, I just hope you won't hate me.

Having said that, Chu Mo stood up, glanced at the guy who was trying his best to make himself invisible: "Sorry, I won't be able to have this meal today. That's okay, right?"

"Ah... no, no problem... it's okay!" The guy, not sure why, felt immense pressure in front of this man of the same realm as himself—as if facing Jiang Caiyue herself!

"That's good, keep it for me, I'll come to eat next time. Let's go!" Chu Mo said and walked out.

"Master!" Ye Qing couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Being with her is much better than with me, you'll understand in the future. Remember, you can say where you're from, and you can talk about me, but don't say my name." Chu Mo conveyed these words to Ye Qing through a voice transmission.

At this moment, Jiang Caiyue's eyes softened as she looked at Chu Mo, and her voice was also unusually gentle: "Don't you think you forgot to make a request from me?"

Chu Mo smiled, his back to Jiang Caiyue: "I knew what this place was before entering the Trial Field. I appreciate your kindness, but it's unnecessary. I can handle it myself. Take good care of Ye Qing for me!"

After saying that, Chu Mo left directly.

Ye Qing cried out loud in pain.

In Jiang Caiyue's eyes, however, sparks of admiration flickered. She murmured, "What a talent!"
