"Xiaoyao, from now on, you must follow Daoist Lu closely in your cultivation. Daoist Lu is our benefactor, and you mustn't miss this chance for immortal fate."
"Child understands. Once child has made progress in cultivation, I will definitely come down the mountain to visit father and mother."
"Thank you, Daoist, for taking care of our unworthy child."
The merchant couple from Heyang City repeatedly bowed to Lu Changsheng before reluctantly leaving Mount Shu, with Shen Xiaoyao energetically waving goodbye.
The other Mount Shu elders were all astonished, exchanging looks of disbelief.
Lu Changsheng had no interest in the gifted candidates from the disciple selection ceremony and instead took a mortal youth as his disciple?
"Brother Lu always takes an unusual path when it comes to taking disciples."
"Could it be that Brother Lu truly possesses a unique discernment?"
The Mount Shu elders were filled with uncertainty.
The choice of Lu Changsheng was just too bizarre.
