By the time Ou Yangming returned to the luxurious courtyard that was prepared for him and his companions, Wu Hanning and the others had been waiting for a long time.
The beautiful ladies looked at him in confusion, making him feel uneasy. He turned to ask Ni Yinghong, "Elder Sister Ying, why are you looking at me like that?"
Ni Yinghong answered with a smile. "Lil' Ming, why did you suddenly want to accept an apprentice? Isn't that too fast?"
"Exactly. Besides, Master Ou, your apprentice is a 40-year-old… Uncle," Bai Shixue noted with a smile.
Based on their understanding of Ou Yangming, he would unlikely do something like that.
Ou Yangming cleared his throat and said, "You're quite well-informed, aren't you?"
Bai Shixue explained, "Nothing can hide from us because Her Highness is here."
