Qin Chuan suddenly ended his conversation through voice transmission with Dan Yangzi.
Dan Yangzi was livid.
Just as he was about to step out and demand an explanation, he saw a purple-robed middle-aged man standing outside Qin Chuan’s door.
“A purple-robed elder??” Dan Yangzi was taken aback.
He knew what level of existence the purple-robed elders were and could only wait obediently in his room.
‘At the same time, Qin Chuan opened the doors and bowed. “Elder!”
The purple-robed elder was none other than Lan Lang.
“Do you have time?” asked Lan Lang.
Qin Chuan nodded, then made a gesture of invitation.
Lan Lang stepped inside.
Qin Chuan brewed some hot tea for Lan Lang. “Elder, these are the tea leaves from my hometown. Please try them.”
Lan Lang picked up his teacup and symbolically took a sip. “It tastes a little bitter, but it’s not too bad.”
Qin Chuan smiled.
Lan Lang said, “There are only the two of us, so you don’t have to be too reserved. Let’s sit down and have a chat.”
Lan Lang produced a purple-gold jade gourd and two cups from his storage ring as he spoke.
“Can you drink?” asked Lan Lang.
Qin Chuan nodded. “A little.”
“Tm glad to hear that!” said Lan Lang, pouring two cups of wine and placing one across him. Seeing this, Qin Chuan had no choice but to take a seat.
“This wine is also unique to my hometown. Have a taste,” said Lan Lang, taking a small sip from his cup.
Right now, he gave off an amiable and approachable feeling, completely lacking the lofty and mighty aura of an Immortal King expert.
Qin Chuan picked up the cup and took a glance at it.
‘The wine in the cup was blue, like the blue sky. It was very clear and free of impurities.
He took a sip, and his expression changed immediately.
The taste of this wine was extremely bitter; even Qin Chuan couldn’t describe it.
Lan Lang grinned. “Very bitter huh!”
Qin Chuan smiled awkwardly. “It’s a little bitter, but delicious nonetheless.”
Inwardly, he was thinking, You son of a b*tch! And you say my tea is bitter! Your wine is a thousand times worse!
But there was nothing he could do. After all, Lan Lang was an Immortal King!
Therefore, he braced himself and downed all the wine in his cup.
Lan Lang laughed and followed suit.
Lan Lang put down his cup. “This wine is bitter, but it has the taste of home.”
He looked at Qin Chuan. “I heard about your reason for making this trip to the Immortal realm.
“Speaking of which, my experiences are very similar to yours.”
Qin Chuan’s eyes lit up. “Elder, your home is also under attack by the Beast Taming Corps?”
Lan Lang nodded and thought back.
“The Beast Taming Corps wanted us to cultivate the beast taming techniques, but since we were already on the path of cultivation, we naturally wouldn’t give up on cultivating to tame beasts.
“The Beast Taming Corps was furious upon learning about this.
“A battle took place.
“At first, we were able to hold out against the Beast Taming Corps. However, later on, they sent powerhouses and summoned terrifying beast pets. They devoured our planet in one bite.
“At the time, I was only in the Golden Core realm and couldn’t help much.
“Because I had a Soul, the elders sacrificed their lives to send me to the Immortal realm along with some talented clansmen.”
Qin Chuan asked, “Then did you seek revenge on the Beast Taming Corps?”
Lan Lang said, “Of course. They destroyed my home. My family and friends died in their hands. I definitely can’t let them off…”
“After I became an Immortal King, I looked for the members of the Beast Taming Corps who destroyed my home.
“If it weren’t because their Emperor experts rushed over, I would’ve wiped them out long ago.”
As he spoke, Qin Chuan noticed the indignation in Lan Lang’s eyes.
There was nothing he could do about it. Emperor powerhouses were like the ceiling of the universe. Lan Lang was already fortunate enough to be able to escape from their hands given his realm of Immortal King.
“Qin Chuan, even though the First Elder and the others are still suspicious of your identity, I can tell from the look in your eyes when I mentioned the Beast Taming Corps that you have a blood feud with them.
“We are of the same kind,” Lan Lang declared solemnly.
Qin Chuan smiled, impressed by Lan Lang’s sharp eyes.
“Elder Blue, thank you for your trust in me.” Qin Chuan stood up and bowed.
Lan Lang stood up as well. “Like I said, we are of the same kind.
“We both harbor a grudge against the Beast Taming Corps, we both possess the Sword Soul, and we both come from the Lower realm.
“So, are you willing to become my disciple?”
Qin Chuan dared not look at him.
To be honest, Lan Lang was an Immortal King. It wasn’t a loss for Qin Chuan to be his disciple.
Furthermore, to rope in powerful factions in the Immortal realm in the future, he would be able to save himself some trouble with the title of a disciple of an Immortal King.
However, he already had a master.
A teacher for a day, a father for a lifetime.
Qin Chuan had already acknowledged Elder Raven as his master. If he were to acknowledge Lan Lang as his master again, he would be betraying Elder Raven.
If his Senior Brothers and Sister were to find out, they would kick him out.
After much consideration, Qin Chuan decided to tell the truth. “Elder Lan, I am very grateful for your appreciation.
“To be honest, I already have a master. If I were to acknowledge you as my master, it would be very unfair to my master, and I would be letting down his nurturing of me.
“So, Elder Lan, I…”
“Enough of that!” interrupted Lan Lang. “Actually, I had already predicted this outcome before coming here.
“Lwon’t force you either.
“But in you, I can see my own shadow.
“At the same time, I really want to teach you everything I’ve learned.”
Lan Lang paused as if pondering.
Qin Chuan did not disturb him.
After a while, Lan Lang was done.
He gazed into Qin Chuan’s eyes and said seriously, “How about this? Since you have your difficulties, and we cannot be master and disciple, being sworn brothers should be fine!”
Hearing this, Qin Chuan realized that something was amiss.
Is he thinking of.
Lan Lang said, “My intention is for us to become sworn brothers.
“That way, you won’t feel guilty when I teach you how to cultivate.”
“I knew it!” Qin Chuan was in disbelief.
If Lan Lang were to accept me as a disciple, he wouldn’t be affected much.
But if we became sworn brothers, he would be at a huge disadvantage.
Lan Lang is a high and mighty Immortal King, while I am nothing but a nobody who isn’t even in the Immortal Realm.
Besides, in terms of seniority, he’s an elder, while I’m a disciple. It doesn’t seem appropriate in any case.
“Elder Lan, are… are you joking?” asked Qin Chuan weakly.
Lan Lang’s expression was solemn. “Do I look like someone who would joke around?”
“Then…” Qin Chuan was at a loss.
Lan Lang continued. “Are you not willing to become sworn brothers with me?”
“Eh…” Qin Chuan was speechless. He didn’t understand why Lan Lang was so hung up on him.
Looking at the determined look in Lan Lang’s eyes, Qin Chuan understood that he was a one-track-minded person. Unless the idea was killed, he wouldn’t give up.
“Elder Lan, if we become sworn siblings, there will definitely be gossip going around among the sect’s disciples and elders,” said Qin Chuan.
Lan Lang smiled. “You don’t have to worry about that. I am one of the leaders of the disciplinary office. If anyone dares to speak ill of us, he can forget about staying in Luo Ding Sect.”
“But there’s a huge gap in seniority between a disciple and an elder. I’m also afraid it might affect your reputation,” continued Qin Chuan.
“Reputation doesn’t mean anything, and I don’t care,” said Lan Lang.
“Then…” Just as Qin Chuan was about to continue, Lan Lang slammed the table.
“In short, yes or no!” said Lan Lang, his expression unusually serious.
Qin Chuan could only nod his head. “Yes!”
“alright. From now on, we are brothers.”
Lan Lang extended his hand and placed it on Qin Chuan’s shoulder, his tone exceptionally solemn.
Hold on!
Th-that’s it?
