Chapter 6: Admitting into the Jade Forest

“Greetings to Ancestral Grandmaster!” The Sect Master uncle and the rest came over as well, and gave a very respectful bow to the man at the entrance . Looking at Zhu Yao, he then continued . “Ancestral Grandmaster, are you planning to take this woman as your disciple?” He initially thought that, given this woman’s age, he would at most take her into the Peak as a inner sect disciple . He did not expect he would directly take her as a disciple .

The man calmly looked at the group of people, and corrected him . “Personal succeeding disciple . ”

“What?”

The red-clothed lady had a face of disbelief, took a step forward, and said . “Ancestral Grandmaster, even if she’s a rare holder of the Lightning Spirit Vein, you can only take in one personal succeeding disciple… Given her age… isn’t it a little inappropriate?”

The man turned and looked towards the red-clothed lady, with a face that was still as cold as ever, he sounded out skeptically, “What does this have to do with you?”

“……”

The red-clothed lady was at a loss of words, the only thing she could do was to shift her gaze, staring fiercely at Zhu Yao who was beside him . She did not even do anything, and was simply standing there the entire time, so why the hell was she staring at her? For a moment, she suddenly had the feeling that she was in a mental hospital the entire time .

“Admit me as your master!” The certain ice caveman adjusted his muzzle aim, and continued to fire at Zhu Yao .

Zhu Yao’s expression silently darkened . “Umm… I say, bro, why don’t we take some time to discuss about this? Why do I have to definitely admit you as my master?”

“Because you’re a Lightning Spirit Vein holder!” The cold-looking caveman said coldly .

“Oh!” Zhu Yao nodded . “May I ask, is there a rule or law that states that, as a Lightning Spirit Vein holder, I have to definitely admit you as my master?”

The ice caveman frowned even deeper, but he still truthfully shook his head .

“Then where did your mom get the confidence that, I will definitely admit you as my master?” Do you believe I will spit a mouthful of cola onto your entire face?

This cold-looking caveman seemed to have been troubled by this question, and only after a long while did he slowly voice out . “Only my Jade Forest Mountain, possesses the Mystic Arts Lightning Spirit Vein holders train in, so you definitely have to admit under my guidance . ” He lowered his head, and looked directly into her eyes . “What does this have to do with my mother having any confidence in this matter?”

“…” Take a deep breath, one must not bite someone in a harmonious society . “Why do I have to definitely train in these Arts?”

He said naturally . “If you want to become a deity, then you have to learn this set of Arts . ”

“Hohoho!” Zhu Yao pulled her hand back, and laughed coldly . “I’m sorry, I don’t wish to become a deity . Thank you . Bye!”

The ice caveman seemed to have been shocked by her way of thinking, as he stood rooted to the ground, totally stunned . Hence, Zhu Yao took this opportunity to happily sneak away . Unfortunately, not even two minutes later, the ice caveman suddenly came chasing after her again . It was not because she was not doing her best, rather, her opponent was simply too strong . Although Zhu Yao ran, as though he was the wind, the ice caveman instantly caught up to her . Without speaking anything else, the moment he grabbed onto her, he flew towards the skies, and headed towards the mountain with the tallest peak .

Zhu Yao simply saw blurred images in front of her, and her head once again struck onto the ice caveman, naturally… she received a third lump!

The hell!

When she regained her senses, she was already standing on a green plains, and the ice caveman was even standing right in front of her .

“Admit me as your master . ”

“Brother Ice, can you please change your lines?”

The ice caveman paused for a moment, and said, “I’m taking you as my disciple!”

“…” Is there a difference?

“My surname is Yu, not Ice . ”

“……”

“My given name is Yan . Since you’re now under my guidance, you will naturally have to use my surname as well . I bestow you the name… Wang . ”

“Your sister’s ‘Desire’!” ¹ Who told you to bestow me a name? I simply do not want to become a deity .

“You’re ‘Yu Wang’ . I told you before, I don’t have a sister . ”

“…” The hell, I never thought that it would be so difficult to communicate in Mandarin . Zhu Yao began to cry in her heart . “Bro, I beg you, please, let me go . I really don’t wish to become a deity . Please allow me to scram back home!”

Yu Yan was startled for a moment, before answering with the same icy tone . “I’m taking you as my disciple, not as my sister . You should be calling me master, not brother . ”

“…” Where’s the nearest cliff!? Please, tell me!

¹ Yu Wang /玉旺, sounds exactly the same as 欲望, which means ‘desire’ in English .

Side note: In Wuxia/Xianxia, masters have the tendency to bestow new names to their disciples, and the disciples will use their masters’ surname as well . The master’s name 玉言, if directly translated into English, is Jade Word, while the name he bestowed to Zhu Yao, 玉旺, is Jade Prosper .

By the way, do you guys want the explanation of the terms to be right under the actual sentence, or have them at the end of the chapter, like above?
