Chapter 921 - 1021: An Excited Yuan Chu Real Person

"Accepting some disciples?" Tian Chu Zhenren murmured to himself, his eyes reflecting a hint of sorrow.

Seeing Tian Chu Zhenren like this, Ye Tianfan sighed. Then he stood behind Tian Chu Zhenren, massaging his shoulders, and said, "Master, one cannot live in memories forever. Besides, since I may often go out for training, mostly staying away from Taihuo Peak for long periods, it's too lonely here by oneself. I can't rest assured training outside knowing that."

Upon hearing Ye Tianfan's words, feeling his sincerity, Tian Chu Zhenren thought that perhaps taking in some disciples wouldn't be a bad idea. He had felt solitude during this period, just like Ye Tianfan mentioned; since he was rarely here, only Tian Chu Zhenren remained. Although he had grown accustomed to the solitude,

people are social creatures. The longer one is lonely, the more they yearn for lively scenes. But at this moment, Tian Chu Zhenren hadn't truly let go of that matter, so he smiled and said, "Ah, let's talk about it later. If I encounter a suitable disciple, I'll take them in. If not, being lonely like this is also quite good!"

Upon hearing Tian Chu Zhenren's words, Ye Tianfan gently patted his shoulder and then said, "Master, you shouldn't speak like that. How can solitude be good? People like us, if we close our doors to the world, isn't it true that we'll never progress? Don't you think so? Moreover, taking disciples has its own benefits; at the very least, it can ease the loneliness in your heart. This way, it's quite possible you might advance further, considering that cultivating one's heart is also part of cultivation, as you have often said. Why then, when it comes to you, shouldn't you continue cultivating the heart?"

"Hahaha, you are right about me. Fine, fine, I'll take a couple of disciples when the time comes!" Tian Chu Zhenren replied with a laugh.

Seeing Tian Chu Zhenren laughing, Ye Tianfan felt a sense of relief. But he knew that Tian Chu Zhenren had only superficially recovered; deep down, he still hadn't let go of those past matters. However, being able to put them aside on the surface was already a step forward. When Taihuo Peak welcomes several disciples, his master Tian Chu Zhenren will have no time to dwell on past events, focusing instead on teaching them. Once the disciples are taught, the past can be seen from a different perspective.

After chatting for a while with Tian Chu Zhenren, Ye Tianfan flew towards Taiqi Peak. After all, he needed Bai Feng to identify some materials. Yet, concerning his master, Tian Chu Zhenren, there were clearly still some unresolved emotions. But time was abundant, and if nothing urgent arose, he wouldn't go out for training; instead, he would integrate all his previous experiences and enter closed-door cultivation.

Upon reaching Taiji Peak, even before he could inform anyone of his arrival, someone had already gone to summon Elder Yuan Chu.

Seeing someone had already gone to notify, Ye Tianfan stood in the square of Taiqi Peak, not moving, quietly awaiting their arrival.

"Oh, Nephew Tianfan, why are you here? I just have something to attend to outside, so if you have anything to say, say it quickly, otherwise you'll have to wait for me to return!" Elder Yuan Chu said upon his arrival. He originally intended for Ye Tianfan to go directly to the main hall to find him. However, since Elder Yuan Chu had matters to attend to at Taichu Peak, on his way past the square, he decided to see what Ye Tianfan wanted.

"In response, Elder Yuan Chu, I came to find Bai Feng!" Ye Tianfan replied respectfully.

"Looking for Bai Feng? Didn't he tell you beforehand? He mentioned attending a black market auction. Didn't he inform you?" Elder Yuan Chu asked in puzzlement. Bai Feng had told him that he had informed Ye Tianfan about attending the black market auction long before it occurred, and Bai Feng also greeted him before departing. Why was Ye Tianfan looking for him now?

Ye Tianfan, hearing Elder Yuan Chu's words, immediately patted his forehead, realizing he had forgotten something. Bai Feng did tell him about going to the black market auction, and the time was drawing near, yet he completely forgot. If he hadn't come to Taiqi Peak, he would have utterly forgotten this. Thankfully, his visit allowed time to reach the black market; otherwise, he would have missed this auction.

However, Ye Tianfan had not forgotten his purpose. He took out a golden-glazed piece from the Xuanhuang Tower and asked Elder Yuan Chu, "Elder Yuan Chu, could you tell me what exactly this glaze is?"

Upon Ye Tianfan presenting the glaze, Elder Yuan Chu was already taken aback. He recognized what it was. Despite his obsession with crafting a Supreme Magical Treasure reaching its peak, now there was a material capable of crafting one, and he didn't want to miss it. At that moment, Elder Yuan Chu was already fantasizing about the Supreme Magical Treasure he would craft.

Seeing Elder Yuan Chu frozen in place, Ye Tianfan waved a hand before his eyes and asked, "Elder Yuan Chu, are you feeling unwell?"

But Elder Yuan Chu remained unresponsive, leaving Ye Tianfan unsure what to do. He was puzzled; why did Elder Yuan Chu become fixated just because he showed him the glaze? Could it have some mesmerising effect?

Yet that didn't seem right; Ye Tianfan wasn't affected, and he didn't sense any Spiritual Power from the item — it merely emitted a mysterious golden glow!

Though Ye Tianfan couldn't recognize it, Elder Yuan Chu did; those golden glows were celestial energy. However, this celestial energy differed from that in the Celestial Realm as it couldn't be absorbed. Still, it could be refined into artifacts!

As Ye Tianfan was contemplating whether to leave, Elder Yuan Chu finally regained his senses, intensely staring at the glaze in Ye Tianfan's hand. Even if it were half its current size, Elder Yuan Chu was confident he could craft a Supreme Magical Treasure!

"Elder Yuan Chu... aren't you heading out?" Ye Tianfan asked softly.
