Chapter 181 - Senior, I Want To Be Your Slave!
Chapter 181: Senior, I Want To Be Your Slave!
After Jianglu heard this, he immediately nodded respectfully.
“Senior’s calligraphy has already been shown to the elders in the family. I have already understood the profound meaning behind it. The elders in the family specially asked me to serve them.”
Jianglu’s expression was complicated.
Senior Liu’s words had a profound meaning. If it was given to an ordinary person, they wouldn’t be able to understand it.
Fortunately, their Dao Constellation Palace’s sect master was able to contact the upper realm’s ancestral master’s methods, so he was able to comprehend it.
Now, when he recalled the words that Ancestral Master Carefree had passed down, Jianglu still couldn’t help but feel his heart tremble.
“As long as that Lord is happy, it doesn’t matter even if you give him another chessboard and smash it.”
When Jianglu recalled these words, his heart still trembled endlessly.
The meaning of that sentence was clearly to curry favor with Senior Liu.
If he did not hear the sect master say it himself, Jianglu would never believe that this was said by the Carefree Grand Sage.
It was too shocking.
When he heard Jianglu’s words, Liu Changgong’s heart skipped a beat.
It turned out that the magic treasure that Jianglu lost to Yu Hongye belonged to an elder in his family.
It was no wonder that when Jianglu came here last time, he looked so absent-minded that he was even stunned when he drank tea.
It was probably because he thought that the elders in his family would blame him, so he was distracted.
From what he was saying now, it seemed that the elders in his family had already forgiven him for his mistake.
If that was the case, then it made sense that Jianglu was now respectful to him.
He had given him a painting for free before, so it could be considered as a favor to him.
Today, Jianglu probably came to his door with a thank-you gift.
Thinking of this, Liu Changgong subconsciously glanced at Jianglu’s storage bracelet and said indifferently, “I’m also responsible for this. You don’t have to be too polite. Just come to the store more often in the future.”
Liu Changgong’s meaning was very obvious.
After all, it was Yu Hongye who won Jianglu’s magic treasure with his calligraphy and paintings, and he was almost blamed by the elders in his family. He was more or less responsible.
Since everything is fine now, then you don’t have to thank me. Just come to my store more often in the future to support the business.
When Liu Changgong thought of this, he was also a bit puzzled.
Why did the sons of the cultivation families have such gambling habits?
Last time, that whatever prince gambled chess with others all day long, and now the person in front of him gambled calligraphy and painting with Yu Hongye.
Alas, cultivators in the cultivation world were no different from mortals.
When they became rich, they wanted to go out and find some excitement.
Liu Changgong sighed in his heart. If it wasn’t because he could only be a mortal without spiritual roots and had to earn cultivation resources for Qi’er and Xia’er, he wasn’t willing to be polite with these sons of rich families.
It seemed that the Prince of Great Xia still had something left here…
He had to quickly find someone to send it over. Otherwise, if this dragged on for too long, others would think that he was coveting the other party’s magic treasure.
As Liu Changgong was thinking about this, Jianglu on the other side was suddenly stunned.
If he moved around more, there was no need to take out the item…
He could understand the first half of the sentence. Senior Liu had once guided their Carefree Patriarch into the Dao, which was equivalent to their Dao Constellation Palace’s Patriarch.
The torch was passed down from generation to generation, and the incense was very deep. It was only right for them to move around more.
But what did the second half of the sentence mean?
Jianglu’s expression suddenly became bitter. It was filled with a thick sense of dejection as he said, “Senior, you already know why I’m here?”
Liu Changgong nodded. ‘I’ve done you such a great favor, allowing you to avoid the reproach of the elders in your family. You should be properly thanking me.’
‘Looking at your sad face, could it be that you will be punished if you can’t send out the thank-you gift?’
Liu Changgong found it very funny.
A mortal like him could actually make a cultivator spend so much effort.
However, Jianglu’s behavior caught Liu Changgong by surprise.
Jianglu suddenly knelt on the ground with a plop. Then, he took out all the Ancient Immortal Jades from his storage bracelet and placed them in front of Liu Changgong. He said with utmost sincerity, “Junior knows that this quantity is quite different from the quantity that Senior wants. It’s a person who has no fate. However, Junior dares to ask Senior to let Junior stay by your side and ask for your chess skills on account of my family’s elders.”
Jianglu knew that a character like Senior Liu naturally did not need any Ancient Immortal Jades. What was important was the word fate.
The number of Ancient Immortal Jade Lou Hongzhi possessed coincided with the number of circulations of the universe. That was why he was fated to become Senior Liu’s student.
He already knew that he wasn’t fated to become Senior Liu’s student. He originally thought that he could play some tricks and wait for the number of Immortal Jade to be sufficient. Then, he would take the initiative to tell Senior Liu about this matter and try to fish in troubled waters.
However, what kind of character was Senior Liu? His insight was astonishing. What could escape his discerning eyes?
His plans were immediately seen through by the Senior.
Before he could open his mouth, the Senior had already rejected him.
However, Jianglu wasn’t willing to give up. Such a great opportunity was right in front of him, and he didn’t want to let it go.
If he missed it, it was very likely that he wouldn’t be able to meet it again.
He only hoped that Senior Liu, on account of Ancestral Master Carefree, would forgive his recklessness and rudeness.
In order to appear more sincere, Jianglu even imitated Lou Hongzhi. He removed his spiritual energy and kowtowed toward Liu Changgong with all his might.
Liu Changgong was shocked by Jianglu’s action.
A pile of shiny ‘middle-grade spiritual stones’ was placed in front of him. He was a little dazzled. It turned out that he had guessed wrong.
It turned out that Jianglu was not here to thank him, but to acknowledge him as his master.
Liu Changgong was deep in thought. He looked at Jianglu with a strange expression and finally understood.
Jianglu and Lou Hongzhi were obviously very good friends.
It was obvious.
Lou Hongzhi had just acknowledged him as his teacher and became his student. Jianglu immediately followed, and the method of requesting to acknowledge him as his teacher was the same.
In addition, Lou Hongzhi wanted to learn calligraphy from him, while Jianglu wanted to learn chess from him.
Didn’t cultivators cultivate?
Such a wide range of hobbies?
While Liu Changgong was thinking, Lou Hongzhi also knelt down and kowtowed. “Senior, although Jianglu likes to play tricks, I can guarantee his character. He has absolutely no secrets. Like me, he sincerely wants to take you as his teacher and be his student.”
Jianglu looked at Lou Hongzhi, touched.
He actually disregarded his dignity and risked offending senior to kneel down and plead for him.
Even a blood brother was just so-so.
Lou Hongzhi was really his good brother.
Jianglu looked at Liu Changgong again. Seeing the frown on Liu Changgong’s face, he became more and more nervous. He could only lower his attitude.
“Senior, if you think that my talent is not enough to be your disciple, I can also be your slave, even if I have to clean your toilet.”
