Chapter 1147: Chapter 1147: A zhu’s Resolve

Children living by Lingzhu Lake are born with a certain spiritual quality. If they receive guidance from a good teacher, they can surely cultivate into greatness. But the pearl farmers, living on the lowest rung, are constantly oppressed in their lives. How could they have the qualification to find a good teacher for guidance? Cultivation, without someone to lead the way, is difficult for ordinary people to figure out.

So, the pearl farmers living by Lingzhu Lake, unless they meet a discerning guest who appreciates them and gives them opportunities, will never see the light of day.

The suggestion from Han Jing to take A zhu as a disciple is like a pie falling from the sky for them, an opportunity they never imagined could happen.

Grandpa Zhu is determined not to give up this time.

He reached out to tug on A zhu’s sleeve, urging her to quickly make a decision.

Han Jing could naturally see A zhu’s difficulties, and smiled: "Don’t worry, since we’ve decided to help, we certainly will see it through to the end. With the Island Master of Yunzhu island, people on the island will give some face. You don’t have to worry about Grandpa Zhu’s safety."

Han Jing’s words finally put A zhu at ease, and she emotionally kneeled before Xia Wu: "Master, please accept your disciple’s three bows."

Then she solemnly bowed to Xia Wu.

Yet Xia Wu remained serious: "I originally didn’t plan to take a disciple, but today, by chance, I accepted you as my apprentice, and it’s our destiny. I will naturally teach you strictly, and you must cultivate wholeheartedly without slacking off. Furthermore, there is one thing I must tell you. Our journey has very important matters ahead, and since you’re traveling with us, I can’t guarantee what unforeseen events may occur, so if you regret now, there’s still time."

She truly felt some pity, but their journey isn’t a mere outing; it’s filled with uncertainties. She is free of attachments, having cast away life and death, yet A zhu is an unexpected part of their journey. Although they will strive to protect her safety, accidents can happen, and cultivation isn’t accomplished in a day. Thus, it’s crucial to clarify things first. If she can’t accept this, they cannot impose on someone just because they are helping.

Grandpa Zhu was momentarily stunned, while A zhu showed determination: "Disciple fears nothing and will surely cultivate earnestly."

She might not speak eloquently, but her determined gaze was enough to prove her resolve.

Seeing such a determined granddaughter, Grandpa Zhu felt relieved too, knowing that in the Futu Realm, strength is revered. But who doesn’t know that the path to becoming strong is full of thorns? He wanted A zhu to find a good family to marry into and live peacefully for life. Yet, how many among them can truly live peacefully for life? He really doesn’t want A zhu to end up like them, struggling each day. He hopes not for her to become mighty, only for her to have the ability to protect herself, to have a place in the Futu Realm, and not be bullied like today without being able to fight back.

Both Han Jing and Xia Wu nodded in agreement; this young girl appears weak yet is stubborn and determined. Xia Wu didn’t make the wrong choice in accepting this disciple; she’s a promising talent.

"Stand up, we’re going to the Island Master Mansion soon."
