Chapter 624: Apprenticeship (Part 1)
"Because your future master’s husband was a disciple of the Green Lotus Sect," Sect Leader Qing said.
He didn’t add more, as they had arrived at Nameless Peak.
As soon as they arrived, Master Lian and Senior Tian Wuya sensed their presence.
"Since you suggested it, don’t go back on your word," Master Lian said calmly.
Senior Tian Wuya snorted coldly, "It’s still uncertain if she killed them by herself or not. Don’t be too confident."
Master Lian didn’t expose her stubbornness.
Soon, they would know the truth.
Senior Tian Wuya lifted her restriction.
Sect Leader Qing led Amalia and the others inside.
From a distance, Amalia saw two people standing on a wide, open ground, each in their own space, clearly separated.
Under the vast sky, they seemed extremely small, but that is the defiance of cultivators.
Though humans are minuscule, they strive to compete with the heavens and the earth.
Master Lian had already been seen, clad in white robes resembling snow.
Beside him stood a woman who could only be Senior Tian Wuya.
Dressed in dark black robes, she exuded a violent and fierce aura.
Even the light in her eyes was sharp and intense.
Unlike the ethereal presence of Master Lian, Senior Tian Wuya had a commanding presence that could be felt at all times.
The two of them were truly like the opposite side of each other.
As the group approached, Amalia immediately felt an unabashed gaze fall upon her.
The gaze didn’t restrain itself, nor did it intentionally create pressure, but it carried a natural sense of oppression that made the one who stood still uncomfortable.
Despite feeling the pressure, Amalia didn’t falter.
Her eyes didn’t avoid hers; she stared directly back at her.
"You’ve got quite the nerve," Tian Wuya said calmly.
This was their first meeting, as she hadn’t appeared before and Amalia hadn’t spoken much until now.
"Hurry and pay respects to your master," Master Lian said with a faint smile.
Knowing her for countless years, almost beyond count, he could tell Tian Wuya was pleased with this disciple.
Amalia hesitated for a moment.
After realizing Master Lian’s words were directed at her. She asked, "Shouldn’t you verify first?"
"Mind your own business," Tian Wuya snapped at Master Lian, "If she had any help from others in killing those devils, she wouldn’t be accepted as my disciple."
"Isn’t it obvious by now?" Master Lian replied calmly.
They had come this far and dared to suggest a verification, which showed their confidence.
Tian Wuya ignored him and addressed Amalia, "Show it."
Amalia took out a storage bag, "The devils’ corpses are inside. Please inspect them, Senior."
Tian Wuya took the storage bag and, with just a glance, understood the situation.
Some of the devils were only identifiable by their heads, which might not show much, but the corpses that were intact still carried traces of the violent blade energy.
"You used the Eight Gods Blade?"
With just one look, Tian Wuya knew what technique Amalia had used to kill them.
Amalia’s eyes revealed a trace of shock.
To be able to discern even that was impressive.
The fact that Senior Tian Wuya could recognize the Eight Gods Blade suggested that the technique originated from the Mystic Void Continent.
Tian Wuya ignored her and said, "The Fourth Blade, is just barely acceptable."
"For someone of her cultivation to be able to execute the Fourth Blade of the Eight Gods Blade is quite impressive," Master Lian said with a light laugh.
Receiving even faint praise from Tian Wuya indicated she was already very pleased.
Sect Leader Qing watched this scene enviously.
Senior Tian Wuya had already spoken several sentences.
When he had begged Tian Wuya to take Hsu Jiayi as a disciple, Tian Wuya had only said one word: "Leave."
This difference showed that from now on, there was one more person in the Green Lotus Sect whom they could not offend.
"Am I the one who took a disciple, or it’s you?" Tian Wuya was displeased with being interrupted by him twice.
Master Lian replied calmly, "If she were not practicing blade technique, I might not have let you take her as a disciple."
Knowing that Amalia had reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage in under twenty months from scratch was astonishing enough.
And seeing her abilities now, he felt a hint of regret.
"Do I need your permission to take a disciple?" Tian Wuya sneered and looked at Amalia, "Since you have completed my conditions, kneel and acknowledge me as your master."
Amalia straightforwardly knelt on both knees, "Master, please accept my bow."
"Where did you learn this ritual?" Tian Wuya glared at her.
Amalia coughed lightly, thinking she couldn’t say it was from watching television.
Tian Wuya didn’t press further and said, "From today, you are my disciple. What is your name?"
"Amalia Vanquez," Amalia replied.
With a flick of her wrist, Tian Wuya produced a storage bag and tossed it to her, "Take this."
"What is it?" Amalia asked as she caught the bag.
"Ceremonial gift, my disciple cannot be poorer than others," Tian Wuya said coldly.
Kenny Lin immediately looked at the Master Lian, "Master, look at this."
When others take on a disciple, there’s always a gift.
When he became a disciple, he got just a sword and a few pills.
Comparing my master’s to Amalia’s, really shows how stingy mine is.
Master Lian noticed the smug look Tian Wuya directed at him, "The sword I gave you was refined by the strongest Artificer on Mystic Void Continent over forty-nine days. It is priceless."
"The future strongest Artificer on Mystic Void Continent is right in front of us," Kenny Lin said with a smile.
Master Lian chuckled, "It’s not easy to master both the art of the blade and the artifact refining simultaneously."
"With determination, anything is possible. My Amalia lacks nothing but talent," Kenny Lin praised as if he were speaking about himself.
"Can you stop talking for a bit?" Amalia couldn’t help but interject.
"Alright," Kenny Lin pretended to zip his mouth.
Tian Wuya, who had been slightly displeased, suddenly felt better seeing the disciple of Lian Qinglan obey her own disciple.
"Unrelated people may leave now." Having endured the crowd for too long, Tian Wuya, who disliked having too many people around, finally started to send them away.
"Master, I have some matters to handle down the mountain. May I come back to see you later?" Amalia asked.
Tian Wuya tossed her a token, "Take this. It will allow you to enter and leave Nameless Peak at will. You don’t need to call for me, but don’t bring outsiders up here."
Amalia nodded her head and replied, "Disciple understands."
Sect Leader Qing glanced at the token in her hand.
There wasn’t a single one like it in the entire Green Lotus Sect.
Since that person’s death, Tian Wuya’s ties with the Green Lotus Sect had grown increasingly tenuous.
The emergence of Amalia, in some ways, had actually strengthened Tian Wuya’s connection to the Green Lotus Sect, which was a good thing.
