Chapter 482: Recruiting a Disciple (67 more chapters to go)

"Come on, sit down." Li Ming said to Yang An with a smile, "How is it?"

Yang An bowed deeply to Li Ming and said, "Thank you, Master Li, for your help. I am deeply grateful."

"It was a matter of fate and chance. If I hadn't taken action, that Zhen guy wouldn't have dared to do anything to Ma Hongyuan. I'm mainly interested in his martial arts. And since you've spoken up, let's do something about it." Li Ming was very satisfied with his former student, and couldn't help but say a few more words of concern.

"Did you learn your martial arts at the boxing gym? That's pretty good. Why are you here in the caravan now? Can you tell me what's going on?"

Hearing Li Ming mention these things, Yang An hesitated for a moment and then talked about his own affairs.

He talked about how he was born an orphan, and how he was fortunate enough to be noticed by the chivalrous monk Mingxin and was taught some basic martial arts.

"The chivalrous monk Mingxin?" Li Ming asked knowingly, "I seem to have heard something about it. Can you tell me more about it?"

When mentioning the chivalrous monk, Yang An was obviously more energetic, and there seemed to be a gleam in his eyes.

"I, Yang An, come from a humble background. I am grateful to my teacher for not abandoning me, treating me with kindness, teaching me martial arts, and pointing me in the right direction."

"Okay, okay, I get it. But is this name the same as Mingxin, the talented monk who won first place in the Yunzhou Martial Arts Competition?" Li Ming asked with a smile.

"Yes, it's my teacher!" Yang An said with his back straightened.

"But I heard that he practices magic skills and is not a good person?" Li Ming said with a smile.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Yang An stood up excitedly and said, "That's slander from others. My teacher has done nothing but righteous deeds since he ventured into the martial arts world. How could he be a spy from the demonic sect? Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people willing to vouch for him."

Although Yang An was not present that day, it was obvious that this student cared very much about his teacher and seemed to have asked a lot about what happened at the end of the martial arts competition.

In fact, because the incident caused such a big stir, even Yang An, who was far away in Jiulian City, knew the whole story, which shows how widespread the rumor was.

"Okay, okay, your teacher is a good man, a very good man. He is definitely not a spy of the evil sect. It was someone from the Xuantian Taoist Sect who wronged him. But didn't he take a move from the grandmaster and his whereabouts are unknown?" Li Ming continued to ask.

At this point, Yang An said with a somewhat sad look: "My teacher's martial arts skills are high, but after all, he has not practiced for a long time. That old thief Feiyun bullies the weak with his big body. I am afraid that my teacher...

"Maybe he's just hiding his identity to avoid the spotlight for the time being. After all, the body hasn't been found, so you don't have to be too pessimistic." Li Ming comforted him.

Yang An nodded and said, "I think so too. As the saying goes, good fortune comes naturally to those who are lucky. How could my teacher, such a good person, die so young? Even God was reluctant to take him away."

"Then how did you end up here?" Li Ming asked.

Yang An sighed and said with some regret: "At first, my teacher's innate strength was exposed, and I was treated with courtesy. Later, after the martial arts competition, those bad news came out and these people immediately changed their faces. Although the master didn't say it, I know he was actually under a lot of pressure. Some people even came to our martial arts hall to scold me. I didn't want to stay and cause trouble for the master. The master knew what I was thinking, so he gave me this letter and asked me to find Master Ma Baoguo. If I can become his disciple, maybe I can avenge my teacher!"

At the end of his words, his eyes lit up again.

"But Xuantian Dao Sect is one of the four great holy places in the world, with an unparalleled foundation. Just you?" Li Ming said. "Yes, just me!" Yang An's eyes were burning with fire.

"Even if I can't bring down Xuantian Dao Sect, I will find that old thief Feiyun and ask him face to face why he wronged my teacher!"

"But Feiyun is an innate grandmaster after all, a top-notch figure in the world. I'm afraid you are not even an ant in front of him!" Li Ming said, shaking his head.

"That's why I have to continue my training, learn from a master, and transform from an ant into a flea, a grasshopper, a frog, a rabbit, a wolfhound, and bite him hard!!!"

"No regrets even if I die?"

"Death without regrets!"

"Is it worth it? He's just a person who taught you martial arts for a few days. Is it worth it for you to do this?" Li Ming shook his head and sighed.

"It's worth it!" Yang An said firmly, "Before I met the teacher, no one had ever treated me well. After my parents passed away, he was the only person in the world who was willing to treat me as a human being. If it weren't for him, I might still be a little beggar in Jiulian City. He gave me dignity, which is more important than my life!"

Seeing Yang An like this, Li Ming was both amused and touched, so he patted his head and said, "Silly boy."

At this moment, Yang An's body suddenly shook, and he looked at Li Ming with disbelief.

"What? Is it like a wake-up call? Or is it like an immortal stroking your head and wishing you eternal life?" Li Ming had a smile on his face, just like that day.

A gaze seemed to pass through time. Although it was only two short months, it was a life of great ups and downs for Yang An. Seeing his mentor again today, his heart was overwhelmed with emotions. He opened his mouth to speak, but could not utter a word.

In the end, only two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks. Li Ming stepped forward to wipe his tears and said, "Silly, you are really silly, why are you crying?"

"My students are so happy, they're crying!"

Yang An also hurriedly controlled his emotions and wiped his tears with his sleeves, but his eyes were still red. Although it is said that children from poor families grow up early and the more difficult their lives are, the more mature they become, but he is still a child after all, and he is really defenseless facing Li Ming at this moment.

Li Ming was also very emotional. If he hadn't caught a glimpse of Yang An by chance, he might not have been willing to wade into this mess. It was all for the sake of taking a look at this good student.

Fortunately, he was not disappointed. Yang An still practiced diligently every day. What was even more rare was that he had a pure heart and still cared about Li Ming. How could Li Ming not be happy?

"Silly child, why bother looking for Hunyuan Shenquan to learn martial arts? I will teach you!" Li Ming laughed and stood with his hands behind his back, with the demeanor of a master.

"Teacher, you?" Yang An was surprised and happy, and jumped up. The meaning behind his words was very obvious. He was a smart person, and he immediately understood what Li Ming meant, but he didn't dare to believe it for a while.

"Still calling me teacher?" Li Ming smiled slightly, looking at Yang An's red eyes, his voice full of laughter.

"Master, Master, please accept my disciple's bow!!!" Yang An understood what he meant and immediately knelt on the ground, bowing deeply to Li Ming.
