Chapter 1338 Xiao Li Also Wants to Become an Apprentice
Princess Mengyu laughed, "No need to rush, let’s hold the apprenticeship ceremony once we get back."
Xiao Li saw that Gougou, who was previously just the master’s adopted son, had suddenly become the master’s apprentice. He felt both envious and jealous, and his gaze at Gougou was filled with jealousy.
Gougou was not afraid of him. Instead, he pointed at him and told the master, "Master, Xiao Li brother is jealous of me."
Xiao Li saw him complain right in front of him to the master and couldn’t help but glare at him fiercely. However, he accidentally caught the master’s gaze and quickly lowered his head, "Master, I’m just envious of him, that’s all. Master, can I be your apprentice too?"
Mengyu couldn’t help but laugh, "Xiao Li, your cultivation method is different from humans, there’s nothing I can teach you."
Gougou was surprised: Xiao Li’s cultivation method is different from humans? Does that mean he’s not human?
Mengyu saw the confusion in Gougou’s eyes and explained with a smile, "Your brother Xiao Li’s original form is a carp with Dragon Clan blood. He has been cultivating for thousands of years."
Upon hearing this, Gougou immediately felt awe, "So Xiao Li brother is that powerful. Then Master, you should take him as a disciple."
The master is incredible; even a millennia-old demon has become her servant.
Hearing Gougou plead for him, Xiao Li gave him an approving look and then turned to Mengyu, "Master, just teach me how to be human."
He looked at Mengyu eagerly because he didn’t want to feel inferior in front of such a young kid. Once he became the master’s apprentice, although he couldn’t do much in front of Xiao Tao, at least he could stand tall in front of Gougou, that brat.
Mengyu thought about it. Although Xiao Li had signed a contract with her, his cultivation was higher than hers, and he was a bit unruly. The contract somewhat failed to restrain him.
Having a master-disciple relationship would actually be more effective in managing him, so it’s just one more disciple anyway.
She nodded, "I can accept you as a disciple, but you must protect your junior brothers and sisters in the future."
Xiao Li was overjoyed and, imitating Gougou, kneeled down on the ground, "Thank you, Master."
Mengyu chuckled, "Get up, we’ll hold the apprenticeship ceremony with Gougou once we return."
Xiao Li stood up immediately and gave Xiao Tao a smug look when he noticed her looking at him enviously.
Mengyu saw Xiao Tao staring at Xiao Li, her eyes filled with envy, and couldn’t help but laugh, "You don’t want to be my apprentice too, do you? That wouldn’t do; you’ve taught me so much. In fact, you’re like half a master to me."
Xiao Tao was immediately pleased upon hearing the master call her a ’half master’, "So, I’m better than a certain fish."
Mengyu quickly said, "Of course, no matter how many apprentices and spiritual pets I take, you’ll always be the first, just below me."
Feeling satisfied, Xiao Tao proudly raised her chin at Xiao Li.
Xiao Li didn’t bother competing with her, as he knew that even if he wanted to, he couldn’t surpass her. Xiao Tao was the first to follow the master and was the Artifact Spirit of the Taoyuan Space; no disciple or spiritual pet could compare.
No matter what, he was now no longer a servant but a disciple! Following the master, he even gets to eat Beast Spirit Pills. In modern society, who else has his luck?
Mengyu was about to leave when she suddenly remembered that Gougou’s residency registration was still in the mountains. She asked the village chief to transfer Gougou’s residency and remembered that Xiao Li and Xiao Tao didn’t have residency, so she simply had them pretend to be from Tiger Valley, and asked the village chief to issue migration documents for them.
Even though Tiger Valley was deep in the mountains, it belonged to the same Damian Commune as Xiayao Village. Tiger Valley’s residency was a mess; they often bought wives who weren’t registered, and registered people who had died weren’t removed from the list either. So, having the village chief register Xiao Li and Xiao Tao and then migrate them out was not difficult.
