Chapter 616: I Won’t Accept
As soon as Ye Qiu said this, the entire place fell silent. No one doubted Ye Qiu’s words. There was only envy in their eyes as they looked at Yaya. Back then, in the Zenith Heaven Hall, they clearly had a chance to become Ye Qiu’s disciples, but they refused. Now, they could no longer suppress the jealousy and envy in their eyes when they saw that Yaya, who had the worst aptitude among their group, was now walking in front of everyone.
At this moment, in the crowd, a handsome young man with firm eyes and dark skin looked at Ye Qiu with a burning gaze. He was one of the disciples from back then.
His surname was Ye and his name was Chen. He came from a large clan, but he had suffered greatly. His status in the clan was extremely low, and he was a concubine’s son. This time, he joined the Heaven Mending Pavilion because he wanted to find a chance to make a comeback and clear his name.
His father had died since he was young, and there was only his mother in the family. After his father died, his status plummeted, and his mother and him became a joke for everyone in the family.
His desire for revenge was extremely strong. He wanted to achieve great things and wash away the humiliation he had endured all these years. But now, after seeing Ye Qiu, he seemed to see hope.
If he could acknowledge Ye Qiu as his master and become a member of Violet Cloud Training Hall, he would definitely be able to soar into the sky with such a selfless master. Thinking of this, Ye Chen instantly made up his mind. No matter what, he had to enter the Violet Cloud Training Hall.
When no one was paying attention, he suddenly rushed down.
“Hmm?” Ye Qiu was the first to notice the abnormality. He looked at the slightly immature young man in confusion. With just a glance, he saw the obvious King’s seal on his forehead.
“Disciple Ye Chen greets Master. Master, please take me in as your disciple.” Ye Chen was very decisive. After attracting Ye Qiu’s attention, he instantly knelt down.
This action also attracted the attention of countless people. Everyone felt that this kid was crazy.
“Ye Chen?” When he first heard this name, Ye Qiu was stunned. He didn’t expect to meet the main family. This was the first time Ye Qiu had met someone with the surname Ye after so many years. Moreover, he was shocked by this kid’s firm gaze.
His shout also attracted the attention of Qi Huan and the others, who surrounded him. Everyone present looked at him nervously. They were also looking forward to it. If Ye Qiu accepted Ye Chen, it would mean that he wouldn’t care about what happened in the Zenith Heaven Hall. Then, they all had a chance to enter Violet Cloud Training Hall. This was a huge opportunity for them. They were very concerned.
Seeing Qi Huan walk over, Ye Qiu said, “Elder Qi, what is he doing?” Ye Qiu didn’t agree to him becoming his disciple. Instead, he asked.
Qi Huan looked at Ye Chen and said, “Ye Chen, what are you doing?”
Ye Chen raised his head and looked at Qi Huan, saying with a firm gaze, “Elder Qi, I was blind back then and didn’t know about the divine might of the Deity. I missed the immortal encounter. I came here today with regret. I only hope that Your Highness will ignore the past and take me in as your disciple. I will definitely be grateful and repay Your Highness’s kindness.”
His eyes did not look like he was lying. They were incomparably pious. However, no matter how sincere he was, Ye Qiu still didn’t look at him.
Qi Huan could also tell that Ye Qiu had given them a chance in the Zenith Heaven Hall, but they didn’t cherish it. It would probably be a little difficult for him to take in another disciple now. However, seeing that this disciple was so pious and repentant, Qi Huan felt compassionate and wanted to value this talent.
Today, he could throw away his dignity and acknowledge Ye Qiu as his master in front of so many people. It was enough to make Qi Huan look at him in a different light. Then, he said, “Your Highness, this child’s talent is not bad, and he has a firm temperament. He knows how to repay kindness and is a good talent. What do you think?”
He wanted to persuade him, but Ye Qiu only smiled and didn’t say anything. The meaning behind his words was obvious. He won’t accept him.
Yes, Ye Qiu had his own way of doing things. He had given them a chance back then, but they didn’t cherish it. Now that they had seen his strength, they wanted to acknowledge him as their master?
There was no medicine for regret in the world. Everyone had to bear the consequences of their choice. Ye Qiu had never forced others, nor did he want to be forced by others. Since they did not acknowledge him as their master back then, it meant that there was no need for the two of them to take in a disciple since they were not fated to be master and disciple.
With a laugh, Ye Qiu said, “Haha, Elder Qi, if you think this is a talent, then accept him. My Violet Cloud won’t accept him.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Qi Huan instantly understood Ye Qiu’s determination. As for Ye Chen, his heart was like dead ashes. He only felt regret in his heart. He regretted not choosing to enter Violet Cloud Training Hall back then. He felt powerless and regretted his wrong decision. Once he missed this immortal encounter, when would he be able to make a comeback? His mother was still waiting for him to bring honor to his ancestors. If he could not make a name for himself in the Heaven Mending Pavilion, he could forget about making a comeback.
Qi Huan knew his encounter very well. As the nominal ruler of the Heaven Mending Pavilion, he had a deep understanding of every disciple. He knew Ye Chen’s fate very well and couldn’t bear it. However, he had no choice since Ye Qiu wasn’t willing to take in a disciple. He could only shake his head and say, “Sigh… What a pity. Although this child came from a big clan, he has a bitter life. His father died in a chaos. There was only his old mother in the family with no one to support her. His status in the family was extremely low, and he was bullied and not valued.
“He bears a blood feud, but he’s helpless. It wasn’t easy for him to pass these layers of assessments and enter the Heaven Mending Pavilion, but he missed the opportunity to become his disciple. What a pity, what a pity…”
Ye Qiu was stunned when he heard Qi Huan’s explanation. Then, he looked at Ye Chen and discovered that this child had a good heart. On the surface, his talent was average, but he was a genius with incomparably great potential. He couldn’t help but be shocked.
“F*ck, the protagonist?”
He had lost his father in his early years and was born into a big clan, but he had suffered and suffered from cold eyes. He had a tragic experience. His surname was Ye. It was obvious that he was the protagonist. Moreover, he had a firm personality and a pure heart. He wasn’t handsome, but he was still considered good. His skin was a little dark, caused by years of bitter training.
Such a persona was the setting of a protagonist.
“Oh my god, have I met the protagonist?”
Ye Qiu was shocked. From his many years of reading novels, this kid looked more and more like the protagonist of a traditional novel.
His family had fallen and his father had passed away early. He had an unwavering determination and could submit and stand tall. Once he encountered the heavenly secrets, he would transform into a dragon.
The more he thought about it, the more ridiculous it became. Seeing that Ye Qiu’s expression had softened, Qi Huan thought that there was a turning point. He still wanted to say something.
Unexpectedly, Ye Qiu suddenly waved his hand and said, “Elder Qi, there’s no need to say anything. I won’t accept.”
Who cares who you are? I said I won’t accept him. Ye Qiu didn’t care who you were. Even if the system told him that this person was the protagonist, he still wouldn’t accept him. There was no other reason than not wanting to accept him. Moreover, this kid was definitely not as innocent as he looked.
“Everyone, please leave. Yaya, send the guests off.” Ye Qiu said coldly, not giving Qi Huan a chance to plead for mercy at all. He directly told Yaya to send the guest off.
Seeing Ye Qiu so heartless, everyone present couldn’t help but feel sorry for Ye Chen.
