Su Yu smiled. "Your kindness is much appreciated, but I have my own things to consider. Please help me to reply to Elder Jing. Ask her to pardon me, as I believe that her adoration has been misplaced."
He continued, "I'm afraid that I'm rather slow-witted, and I'll be unable to break through the bottleneck to the Almighty level. As such, I might ruin her reputation in the faction, which is why I've decided to reject her invitation."
Su Yu's words were gracious and self-effacing. Upon hearing them, Shangguan Yunque's mouth hung open. He couldn't understand what Su Yu was thinking.
Previously, Su Yu had rejected the Left and Right Palace Masters, and now, he was rejecting an apprentice recruitment by Elder Jing! This was an opportunity that many students of the Red Blood Palace couldn't even imagine, but when it came right to Su Yu's doorstep, he had rejected without a second thought!
