Urban Peerless Expert

Chapter 4139 - 4158: Taking a Master

"I heard that cultivation also depends on talent, it’s not something you can do just because you want to, right?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, it’s quite similar to martial artists. Only a very small proportion of people have a spiritual root, which is the aptitude for cultivation. Only those with a spiritual root can sense spiritual Qi and have the foundation for cultivation."

Fang Min smiled and said: "I wonder if testing aptitude is troublesome?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "It’s very simple. Is Ms. Fang thinking of having Miss Xue tested for aptitude?"

Fang Min nodded: "Yes, wanting to learn and being able to learn are two different things. At the very least, we need to confirm whether she can learn before discussing anything else."

"Does the test require any supplies, do I need to prepare anything on my end..."

"No need."

Lin Chen took out the magic ball used for testing aptitude, placed it on the tea table in front, and smiled: "Just place your hand on it."

Xue Wenrui walked to the magic ball but didn’t rush to place her hand on it.

"How do you determine if someone has the aptitude for cultivation?"

Lin Chen answered: "If you have a spiritual root, it will glow. Different attributes of spiritual roots have different colors of light. The stronger the light, the purer the spiritual root, which means higher efficiency and faster progress in cultivation."

Xue Wenrui nodded and placed her hand on the magic ball.

Quickly, the ball emitted a glow that rapidly intensified, becoming extremely bright.

This girl truly has aptitude!

Lin Chen was secretly astonished. Previously, when he tested Xu Qingchuan, who couldn’t cultivate, his aptitude was also very good, and now this girl, who couldn’t cultivate, is the same!

Could it be that those who can’t cultivate as martial artists all have the aptitude for cultivation?

The glow was bright but nearly transparent, with slightly distorted light, giving a very peculiar visual sensation.

Lin Chen looked back at Yao Xuanji in surprise: "It’s actually a spatial attribute..."

Yao Xuanji stared at the magic ball with astonished eyes: "The aptitude is quite good."

Lin Chen observed for a while and then laughed: "Alright, you can remove your hand now."

Because Lin Chen had already explained it, both Xue Wenrui and Fang Min understood the test result.

Xue Wenrui indeed possessed the aptitude for cultivation, with a spatial attribute, and her aptitude was quite good.

Xue Wenrui’s eyes sparkled with excitement: "Is the spatial attribute good or bad?"

Lin Chen laughed and explained: "In our place, among the many Heaven Deities, the most powerful are the God of Space and the God of Time. Even now, our use of Star Sky Jump also counts as a space supernatural power."

"There are many places we can’t necessarily go to; only the God of Space can, and other Heaven Deities also have to rely on the God of Space’s abilities."

Fang Min’s face also showed a smile. Although the child has sufficient protection, isn’t it better for her to be strong herself?

This time Xue Wenrui was kidnapped. If she had the ability herself, maybe she could have escaped on her own.

Fang Min looked at Yao Xuanji with a smile: "If I remember correctly, Miss Yao, you are the God of Space, right?"

Yao Xuanji nodded: "Yes."

Fang Min chuckled lightly: "I wonder if Miss Yao would be willing to teach Ruirui. Of course, if you have any requests, feel free to ask."

Yao Xuanji didn’t expect Fang Min would approach her and hesitated for a moment: "I’ve never taught a disciple before, not really good at teaching people."

Xue Wenrui pursed her lips and stared at Lin Chen: "I want to take you as my master."

After a pause, Xue Wenrui turned her head to look at Yao Xuanji: "Since you two are husband and wife, taking him as a master should be the same, right?"

Yao Xuanji breathed a sigh of relief, giving Lin Chen a cheeky grin: "Hmm, it’s the same. He has accepted a little girl as a disciple before and has experience. If he agrees, we will certainly teach you everything we can without hiding anything."

Lin Chen gave Yao Xuanji an exasperated look. This guy is really good at shirking work!

Of course, he understood Yao Xuanji’s meaning. She hoped he would be the mentor since Xue Wenrui came from an extraordinary family. Being her mentor would surely bring benefits, which would be helpful for Lin Chen’s travels.

Although their strength was not much less than Lin Chen’s, Lin Chen was the head of the family, and having a bit more aura on his travels benefited Lin Chen.

For our group, Lin Chen is my husband, what he has is basically what our group has.

At this point, Lin Chen couldn’t refuse any longer.

"Since my home is not here, I might not always stay on the Emperor Star. That’s why I didn’t agree earlier, for fear of delaying Miss Xue’s cultivation..."

Ms. Fang smiled: "No problem, a master leads you to the door, but cultivation depends on the individual. As far as I know, cultivation is an extremely long process, often hundreds or even thousands of years. If Mr. Lin really needs to leave halfway, it won’t prevent her from cultivating on her own."

Lin Chen had no more reason to refuse, so he straightforwardly agreed: "Miss Xue, are you sure you want to take me as your master and follow me in cultivating the Immortal Path?"

Xue Wenrui nodded: "Yes."

Lin Chen nodded: "Cultivation is full of hardships and dangers. To cultivate the Immortal Path, you not only have to endure hardships but also withstand loneliness. If you are truly determined, I will accept you as a disciple. Of course, not just me, they will also teach you."

Xue Wenrui knelt swiftly and made a grand gesture: "Disciple pays respects to Master!"

Lin Chen extended his hand to help: "Alright, stand up."

Xue Wenrui did not stand, instead, she turned towards the other ladies and paid respect again: "Disciple pays respects to the esteemed mistresses."

Lin Chen took out a gift, which had been prepared in advance, from the Spatial Ring and gave it to Xue Wenrui, as a meeting gift for the disciple.

Yao Xuanji and the other ladies also each presented their gifts. After all, she performed such a grand gesture calling them esteemed mistresses, it wouldn’t be right not to give a meeting gift, would it?

Fortunately, they were prepared before coming, all top-tier defensive and escape treasures, which Xue Wenrui could activate after comprehending spiritual Qi and possessing spiritual power.

Although these treasures couldn’t withstand warriors above Level 7, lower-level warriors wouldn’t be able to easily handle her, and she also had space escape treasures, enough for her to escape to safety.

At least, with space escape treasures, if something happens, the guards around could buy some time for her, so she could run rather than wait for death in place.

Xue Wenrui listened to everyone’s explanation, her eyes growing brighter and brighter.

Although she couldn’t use them temporarily, just hearing about them sounded like good life-saving and escape items.

Fang Min’s face showed a smile: "Then Ruirui is in your hands, everyone."

Lin Chen laughed: "It’s no trouble. Anyway, I am quite idle."

Fang Min was about to speak when the sound of footsteps echoed, and an elegant middle-aged man walked in from outside. Even before entering, his voice preceded him.

"Sorry, everyone, I was delayed by a meeting and am late!"

Lin Chen and the others turned their heads, and upon seeing the man’s appearance, their hearts suddenly sped up.
