The kid was stunned and immediately raised his head. "I will not easily worship a master!"
Based on his reply, he seemed to be a rather proud individual. Perhaps, having him as an apprentice was a gift.
Gu Xijiu raised her eyebrows slightly as she was surprised. She did not like to force people to do something they did not want to do. In fact, she was not looking for an apprentice. However, she was able to spot the child's talent, so she came up with the suggestion.
Since the child seemed reluctant, she was too lazy to pursue the matter further. She nodded her head and sighed. "You are an ambitious boy. You don't have to recognize me as your master." She turned away and left.
