"Are you serious?"
Xiao Chen stared at the grand elder.
He had considered many possibilities regarding the grand elder's conditions.
For example, the grand elder might have asked him to join the Pill Tower to enhance its strength.
However, the condition of taking Nangong Yanran as an apprentice was indeed unexpected.
"Emperor Xiao, I know you might be reluctant to join the Pill Tower, so I made this request. Yanran is the successor of the Pill Tower, and her Alchemy Dao has hit a bottleneck, but we have nothing more to teach her, so we can only ask for your help!"
"Well… It's not that I'm unwilling; it's just that I'm not a qualified master, and I'm afraid I'll let you down!"
Compared to joining the Pill Tower, he definitely preferred to take Nangong Yanran as an apprentice.
With this condition in exchange for the Soul Devouring Emperor Fire, he was not at a loss.
However, speaking of accepting a disciple, he thought of Cao Yanxue, who was still missing.
