“Take ten disciples and teach them different skills to help them survive in this chaotic world!”
Upon hearing this, Li Fan was immediately startled.
This… he has to take disciples again?
He guessed that the disaster that had occurred had left many people homeless, and the System was expecting Li Fan to help some of them with all his abilities…
He instantly felt worried. Taking ten disciples was one thing, but the key was that he had to teach them different skills to help them survive in this chaotic world.
Although he possessed a myriad of miscellaneous skills, the better ones, like music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, could still be considered cultured pleasures and might attract some interest. The rest seemed rather… like trivial party tricks or insignificant skills.
For instance, a hundred ways to plant trees?
Vegetable planting and hybridization techniques?
Peach Tree Grafting Techniques?
Postpartum Care for Sows?
The fourteen hammering techniques of blacksmithing?
Who would want to learn these things?
Besides, even if they learned them, could they really survive in a chaotic world with these skills? He did not believe it himself.
How pleasant it was now, teaching Zi Ling and Nan Feng, two great beauties, listening to them call him “Master” every day. It couldn’t be more comfortable.
If he took ten disciples, that would be a tremendous pressure.
It was hard to take disciples, but even harder to teach them.
But, one couldn’t simply ignore a System task.
Seeing the expression on Li Fan’s face, Fire Spirit considerately asked,
“Senior Li, do you have any orders to give?”
Li Fan had a thought; he had limited resources in this small mountain village, but Fire Spirit and others came across more people in the outside world.
He could ask for their help.
However, in the hearts of Fire Spirit and others, he was, after all, a master of exquisite skills; he couldn’t afford to lower his status too much and had to maintain some dignity.
He immediately responded, “Hmm… it’s like this, now that chaotic times have arrived, I do possess some minor arts that 1 wish to pass on, but having lived in the mountain village for a long time, I know very little about the outside world…”
Upon hearing these words, Fire Spirit and Mu Qianning were instantly enlightened. Senior Li, Senior Li was going to take in disciples?!
They were immediately excited and surprised.
A figure like Senior Li, who could even force True Immortals to spill blood, following by his side was a blessing not achieved in ten lifetimes.
If the outside world knew that Senior Li was going to take disciples, it would certainly cause an uproar. Perhaps even the Supreme, Almost Immortals, and Immortals would bow down and beg!
They had not forgotten how someone as astonishing and peerless as Jiang Xue had been eager to stay by Senior Li’s side and, after being rejected, was unwilling to leave and chose to live in seclusion in the small mountain village.
And the minor arts mentioned by Senior Li, a joke, how could they really just be minor arts? The minor arts mentioned by Senior Li were surely rare and supreme arts of the Immortal Path!
“Senior, Senior, are you really going to take disciples?”
Fire Spirit could hardly believe it.
Li Fan nodded and sighed, “Yes, the chaotic times have begun, and it is something I must do.”
It was all because of this disaster that had struck the Xuantian Realm. Otherwise, how could the System possibly have him take disciples?
So he said, chaotic times had begun, and he was forced to do this out of necessity.
But to Mu Qianning and Fire Spirit, this showed even more respect and admiration, their eyes filled with greater veneration.
“Although detached from the world, ethereal and beyond mortal concerns, he is still able to support the heavens with his strength and harbor the whole world in his heart. This is Senior Li, this is the demeanor of a legendary figure.”
Mu Qianning couldn’t help but murmur, filled with admiration for Li Fan.
“It seems that, in this grand game, Senior Li is preparing to make his move to contend with the great calamity…”
Fire Spirit took a deep breath, understanding that Senior Li was planning to use them to spread the news about his upcoming recruitment of disciples.
After all, how could a legendary figure like Senior Li personally seek out disciples?
Upon thinking of this, she immediately said, “Senior, rest assured, we will definitely spread the news of your recruitment of disciples throughout the Xuantian Realm. I believe the most outstanding individuals in the entire Xuantian Realm will be vying to come!”
Upon hearing this, Li Fan’s face, though usually impassive, couldn’t help but flush with redness. Fire Spirit and Mu Qianning had too much confidence in him, to say such things as spreading the word throughout the Xuantian Realm… It was too extravagant.
“There’s no need to be so ostentatious, it’s better to be low-key.”
He couldn’t help but speak out.
What a joke, in this Xuantian Realm, where cultivators reign supreme, as a mere mortal, how could he afford to be arrogant? Moreover, thinking of the skills he could teach, Li Fan felt embarrassed.
He didn’t want to make a big fuss, just quietly and discreetly complete the system task, and that would be enough.
Upon hearing this, Fire Spirit and Mu Qianning instantly understood.
“Damn it, I actually forgot, Senior Li is a hermit who doesn’t wish to delve too much into worldly matters, naturally, he doesn’t want to attract attention. Moreover, his grand scheme must involve profound and extensive matters, which should not be known by too many people!”
Fire Spirit chided herself.
Mu Qianning, with eyes full of admiration, looked at Li Fan and asked, “Senior, what kind of disciples are you looking for?”
Li Fan thought for a moment, then said with a smile, “No specific requirements, let it be left to fate.”
Left to fate!
Although he said so, Mu Qianning and Fire Spirit both understood that this would probably make many favored sons of heaven regret their mistakes.
Like Jiang Xue, those Immortals!
Such a high-minded individual, everything indeed depends on fate…
“Senior, we have understood your meaning. Please rest assured, we will do our best!”
Fire Spirit spoke, already filled with anticipation.
Li Fan nodded and said, “Good. Thank you.”
After Fire Spirit and Mu Qianning left, they headed directly towards Taiyan Holy Land.
To unite against foreign enemies, many of the Xuantian Realm’s power leaders were now gathered at Taiyan Holy Land.
Upon their return, Saint Lord Lingchao and Yuanyang Holy Lord immediately welcomed them into the grand hall.
“The two goddesses have returned. How is it, does Senior Li have any directives for the current situation?”
Yuanyang Holy Lord asked solemnly.
Fire Spirit nodded seriously and said, “Yes, Senior Li has already foreseen the great troubles of the Xuantian Realm and moreover, to cope with the chaotic times, he has asked us to do something!”
Upon hearing this, Saint Lord Lingchao and Yuanyang Holy Lord both looked at Fire Spirit with tense anticipation.
“What is it?”
Fire Spirit spoke word byword, “Senior Li is going to take a disciple!”
Taking a disciple!
As they heard this, Yuanyang Holy Lord and Saint Lord Lingchao were both taken aback, their eyes filled with disbelief.
“Senior Li is actually going to take a disciple. After so many people seeking apprenticeship, even a figure like Jiang Xue was rejected…”
Saint Lord Lingchao murmured.
“This is clearly not just about taking a disciple, obviously, it’s a move made by Senior Li whose effects in the future are unimaginable.”
“And whoever he accepts as his disciple, their future prospects…are unimaginable, at least above the Immortals!”
Everyone’s expressions were complex as Saint Lord Lingchao spoke excitedly yet nervously, “Besides this, does Senior Li have any other requirements?”
Such an extraordinary opportunity — if possible, even he wished to become a disciple!
Yuanyang Holy Lord was more direct, “Do we, I, still have a chance?”
Both Holy Lords, of nearly Immortal caliber, looked eagerly at Mu Qianning and Fire Spirit.
They exchanged a glance and instantly understood each other.
They…. had still underestimated the sensation that Senior Li’s recruitment of disciples would cause!!!
