Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“You…” Su Haisheng stared at her, but Su Ziyin interrupted him before he could say anything, “What conditions? I’m definitely fine with it!”
The young girl was very confident.
Gu Qingluan glanced at Su Haisheng, who was attempting to convey a threat through his gaze. She had a pretty good idea of what he was thinking.
In his view, his granddaughter was exceptional in every regard, and Gu Qingluan should feel fortunate to have his granddaughter as her discipline. If Gu Qingluan were to propose demanding conditions, it would be a significant error in judgment.
Gu Qingluan had encountered many of these self-important old folks and didn’t pay them much mind. Her gaze shifted to Su Ziyin, and she said, “If you want to be my disciple, there will be no Miss Su of the Canghai Palace here. From now on, you must obey my orders.”
Su Ziyin nodded vigorously. “No problem! Respecting and obeying the teacher is a must!”
“Secondly, you must not harm others indiscriminately, and you absolutely cannot deceive others using my name.”
“I won’t, I promise!”
Gu Qingluan raised an eyebrow at her. “Are you sure?”
During the rescue operation at the Shadow Tower, Su Ziyin had her eyes on Gu Qingluan’s Primordial Gold Needle and snatched it without hesitation, nearly injuring herself in the process.
Recalling that incident, Su Ziyin’s expression turned embarrassed. “I won’t do it again, 1 promise. You can trust me.”
“Good, third point! If you become my disciple, you must abide by my rules.”
Su Haisheng couldn’t help but speak, “So many conditions! Yin’er, perhaps we should rethink this. Our Canghai Palace is a highly esteemed sect, and many people aspire to join but can’t. Why go through all this hassle?”
He felt that this young guy might not have good intentions, and he worried about how Gu Qingluan might mistreat his granddaughter in the future.
However, Su Ziyin had been deeply impressed by Gu Qingluan’s mastery of the Primordial Gold Needle that day, and she was determined to become her disciple. She had no intention of heeding anyone else’s advice.
“Grandfather, please don’t dissuade me. I’ve made up my mind,” she said, then turned to Gu Qingluan. “I understand the rules for discipleship. I can meet all three conditions. Is there anything else? Are you willing to accept me now?” “Lastly, I don’t accept foolish individuals. You must pass a test to become my disciple.”
“I’m smart!” Su Ziyin lifted her delicate chin, brimming with confidence. “Tell me about the test.”
Gu Qingluan opened her hand, holding two pills, one green and one brown, in her palm.
“Identify the ingredients of these two pills..”
“What’s so hard about this?” Su Ziyin confidently smiled, revealing two adorable little tiger teeth as she spoke.
She accepted the two pills from Gu Qingluan, starting by sniffing the green one. Her eyes brightened, and she exclaimed, “This pill has Trillium, Dendrobium, Yuan Shen, and even tiger bone in it, am 1 correct?”
Gu Qingluan smiled. The young girl indeed had some skills. She said, “Now, smell the other pill.”
After sniffing the brown pill, Su Ziyin’s expression froze momentarily, and her brows furrowed unconsciously. She spoke more slowly than before, “This pill contains Red Root, Su Zi, Qing Pi, Frankincense, Reishi mushroom, and… and…”
Oh, there seemed to be one more ingredient, but she couldn’t be sure which one it was.
“You can taste it,” Gu Qingluan suggested.
Su Ziyin immediately tossed the pill into her mouth without hesitation, not even considering the possibility of it being poisonous.
Su Haisheng wanted to stop her but didn’t have time, so he could only watch her with a mixture of anger and helplessness.
He was extremely protective of his granddaughter. From a young age, she had displayed exceptional medical talent, and she genuinely loved the field of medicine.
But now, this intense affection he felt for her had suddenly soured.
He couldn’t believe how her enthusiasm had led her to idolize some unknown, arrogant young man who had suddenly appeared in their lives!
He cast a sour glance at Gu Qingluan.
Su Ziyin chewed the pill, and suddenly, her eyes brightened, and she exclaimed in excitement, “1 know! It also contains Nine Miles Fragrance!”
“Are you sure?”
With that question, Su Ziyin started to feel a bit uncertain.
She carefully savored the lingering taste in her mouth.
“It indeed has Nine Miles Fragrance. 1 won’t make a mistake!”
Gu Qingluan shook her head, “You’re wrong..”
