"Xiao Tao, you don't have to panic. To be able to be chosen by such a powerful figure and become their direct disciple is an excellent opportunity that others can't even dream of. So, this is a good thing that only happens once in a thousand years. You should be happy." Lin Yi only smiled, not looking troubled at all.
"But ... But if I agree to them, won't I have to separate from you?" Huang xiaotao grabbed Lin Yi's hand pitifully. The opportunity that everyone else dreamed of was far less important to her than being with Lin Yi. If she could reject it, she would've just rejected it.
Unfortunately, that was impossible. Not to mention the consequences of rejecting her in public, even Lin Yi wouldn't agree to it.
