Gu Xijiu kept her stance on the matter. "I will not accept any disciple."
Qianshi was shocked that she shut the door in his face. He was certainly not used to being rejected. Swiftly, his inner child's instinct kicked in. "My Divine Lord, you said that you were going to take me as your disciple not long ago," he gently reminded.
Gu Xijiu softly replied, "As I said before, I would only offer the opportunity once. If you missed it, you missed it."
Qianshi's face flushed crimson with embarrassment. "I did not know about you back then."
Gu Xijiu finally looked at him properly but with judgment in her eyes. "Did you just agree to acknowledge me as your master because you found out my identity?"
"No… No!" Qianshi stammered.
Gu Xijiu continued to look at him sternly with an expression of disapproval. "Other than your ability to fawn upon the powerful, you have also disappointed me with your bad lies. Your talents will not do you any good."
