Did he take Gu Yutong as a disciple?

Well… her Underworld Palace physique was indeed tempting, even Chen Xiao was a little moved.

It’s just that everyone is so familiar, wouldn't it be a little embarrassing to make a move?

Just as Chen Xiao's mind began to wander, he heard Gu Zhendong continue, "If she could become your disciple, it would definitely be a blessing for that girl."

Chen Xiao suddenly understood that he had misunderstood.

What Gu Zhendong meant by "taking Gu Yutong" was simply accepting her as a disciple.

Chen Xiao thought about it for a moment and immediately agreed.

"No problem, I accept this disciple!"

Gu Zhendong seemed very excited, "Great, I'll prepare the apprenticeship ceremony right away, and have Tongtong formally become your disciple in a little while."

"Huh? Apprenticeship ceremony? There's no need to be so formal, is there?"

Chen Xiao was about to say that maybe they should just forget it, but Gu Zhendong had already rushed out like the wind, starting the preparations.

It was clear that he was truly excited and really hoped that his daughter could become a disciple under Chen Xiao's tutelage.

Seeing that Gu Zhendong was busy preparing, Chen Xiao couldn't just sit idle.

Since he was going to accept a disciple, and it was his first time, he couldn't be careless. He had to prepare a gift, at the very least.

He happened to see paper and pen nearby, and Chen Xiao immediately had an idea.

Half an hour later, Chen Xiao sat steadily in the grand master's chair in the center of the room, with exquisite tea sets in front of him.

The teapot was filled with Gu Zhendong's treasured, high-quality tea, steeped to perfection.

Gu Yutong stood in the lower position. She had just taken a bath and changed clothes, and the tips of her hair were still damp, making her look as fresh and beautiful as a lotus emerging from the water.

Her tall figure and delicate face added a touch of charming elegance to her appearance.

She kept her head slightly lowered, looking a little nervous.

Gu Zhendong stood to the side, naturally not absent from his daughter's apprenticeship ceremony.

However, he wasn't participating as a parent, but as the host of the ceremony.

The speakers nearby gently played beautiful music, the ancient melody of "High Mountains and Flowing Water."

"I announce that Mr. Chen Xiao's disciple acceptance ceremony, and my beloved daughter Gu Yutong's apprenticeship ceremony, officially begins!"

With Gu Zhendong's announcement, the apprenticeship ceremony began.

Although the entire apprenticeship ceremony was simple, it was very formal.

Small as it was, it had all the essential elements!

Finally, Gu Yutong poured tea for Chen Xiao, and Chen Xiao drank it in one gulp, marking the satisfactory completion of the apprenticeship ceremony.

From then on, a master-disciple relationship was established between Chen Xiao and Gu Yutong.

Gu Yutong's face was expressionless, but her heart was filled with a mixture of joy and sorrow.

She was happy because she was now Chen Xiao's disciple and could see him often.

But she was also sad because, from now on, she could only be Chen Xiao's disciple.

Chen Xiao had no idea what was going through Gu Yutong's little head. He took out several sheets of paper covered in writing.

Gu Zhendong glanced at them and saw that they were various cultivation methods and incantations.

And these sheets of paper were clearly from his own house, which meant that Chen Xiao had just written them.

"Yutong, from today onwards, you are my disciple. As your teacher, I don't have much to give you, so I'll give you this 'Su Nü Xin Jing' (Pure Maiden Heart Sutra). This cultivation method is very suitable for you to practice. I believe that it won't be long before it helps you enter the Dao!"

Gu Yutong excitedly accepted the cultivation method and happily said, "Thank you, Master!"

Chen Xiao nodded slightly, actually possessing some of the majesty of a master.

Gu Zhendong cautiously asked, "Chen Xiao, can I take a look at this cultivation method?"

Chen Xiao shrugged and said as a matter of course, "Of course."

Gu Zhendong took the Su Nü Xin Jing and immediately revealed a look of great joy. This Su Nü Xin Jing cultivation method was much stronger than the cultivation method he had practiced when he first entered the Dao.

Moreover, it was very well suited to his daughter's physique. If nothing unexpected happened, he believed that his daughter's strength would be even greater than his at his peak in less than ten years!

His face was filled with unconcealed excitement as he warned his daughter, "Tongtong, from now on, you must practice diligently, so as not to waste your master's gift of such a good cultivation method to you."

Gu Yutong nodded very seriously, "Daughter understands."

Chen Xiao pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, "Tongtong, although you have become my disciple, I may not have much time to systematically teach you cultivation. If you have any confusion and I'm not around, you can ask your father first."

"And don't worry, we'll be moving in together in the future, so we'll still have plenty of time together."

Gu Yutong was slightly stunned when she heard this, "Moving in together? Master, do you mean that I'm going to move into your house?"

Chen Xiao nodded, "Not just you, your father will move in too."

Gu Yutong's face was full of confusion, "Ah? Master, will your house be able to accommodate so many people?"

Gu Zhendong laughed, "Silly child, we're not moving into your master's current house. Your master got a big villa, and we're all moving in together! We'll be preparing to move in the next few days!"

Gu Zhendong was essentially a martial artist and didn't think that moving into Chen Xiao's house would be like living under someone else's roof.

On the contrary, moving in together would give him a sense of belonging to a sect.

Gu Yutong finally understood and was immediately filled with joy. It would be wonderful if she could live under the same roof as her master day and night.

The apprenticeship ceremony came to a perfect end, and Chen Xiao also left the Gu family.

It was still early, so Chen Xiao decided to go to Wu Fei'er's house. Wu Fei'er's mother was suffering from cancer and would need treatment for some time to come.

Wu Fei'er was naturally overjoyed to receive Chen Xiao's call, and she was even more delighted to hear that Chen Xiao was going to her house to treat her mother's illness.

Chen Xiao guessed that Wu Fei'er should be at work at this time, so he asked, "Are you at the Emerald Workshop? Do you want me to pick you up?"

Unexpectedly, Wu Fei'er replied, "No, no, I'm at home, just come straight to my house."

Chen Xiao didn't ask any more questions and went straight to the Wu family's house.

At Wu Fei'er's house, Wu's mother's mental state was much better than before, almost like a different person.

This was not only because her condition had improved, but also because her mentality had changed for the better.

Sometimes, what really kills people is not the disease itself, but the enormous psychological pressure brought about by the disease.

Wu's mother was very happy to see Chen Xiao, "Benefactor, you're here! Benefactor, please sit down quickly. Fei'er, quickly pour some water for our benefactor, and get some fruit for our benefactor to eat."

Wu's mother was too enthusiastic, and Chen Xiao couldn't handle it a little.

Little did he know that Wu's mother was treating him this way not entirely out of gratitude for saving her life.

To a greater extent, she was treating him as her future son-in-law.

Chen Xiao quickly completed today's treatment, and the effect was immediate. Wu's mother's condition improved a lot again.

She even wanted to get up and personally cook a meal for Chen Xiao to treat him!

Wu Fei'er couldn't stand it anymore and quickly said, "Mom, I'll take Chen Xiao out to eat. Stop fussing and lie down and rest!"
