His Highness Strikes

In this situation, Helian Weiwei felt helpless. She couldn't help but wonder if there was a master in Taibai Academy who specialized in psychological counseling. She wanted someone to take a good look at her pet's condition.

"You're staring at me again, woman! Don't you dare say you have no impure thoughts about me! Hmph, you're doomed. Buddhas don't favor human beings!" Yuan Xi blushed slightly and looked incredibly handsome.

Helian Weiwei: ...

"Apprentice, what's wrong with you, apprentice?" The Supreme couldn't hear Yuan's words and didn't understand why the girl sighed and rubbed her head as soon as he arrived. He looked genuinely concerned.

Helian Weiwei coldly flicked away his hand and stood up from the wooden chair. "I'll say it again, I don't have a master. You've mistaken me for someone else."

"Wait a minute!" It seemed that he realized his approach was too extreme, and the Supreme didn't want to scare away the potential apprentice in front of him. He changed his tone slowly, adopting a serious and wise old man's posture. "Little girl, don't be afraid. I just want to have a private conversation with you about martial cultivation."

Upon hearing the word "martial cultivation," Helian Weiwei paused. "What do you want to talk about?"

"How many martial arts creations have you made?" The Supreme chuckled like an old fox, thinking that this girl was quite impressive—neither arrogant nor humble, and quite polite.

Helian Weiwei casually replied, "Two."

"Two? You mean you made just two like it was a piece of cake?" The Supreme raised an eyebrow, surprised by her response.

Helian Weiwei let out a light snort and continued, "The first one was made in the Phoenix Tower. At that time, they seemed to be conducting some kind of summoning event, so I decided to give it a try."

"Summoning event? Are you referring to the Tutianban summoning event?" The Supreme couldn't contain his excitement. It felt as if his heart was about to leap out of his chest. Could such an ingenious event actually exist in this world?

Anxiously, the Supreme asked, "What did you create during that event?"

"Just a handful." Helian Weiwei took another sip of tea and spoke slowly, "Yes, I made a long whip."

Upon hearing this, the old man jumped up, his fists clenched, and excitement filled his eyes. "That's not just any long whip, it's a Nine-Curved Silver Snake! Girl, you have no idea. We searched the entire capital just to find someone like you! I never expected that you would enter Taibai Academy with such qualifications. Well! Since you met the old man before Tutian, I must take you as my apprentice. Let that arrogant and domineering brat have a good look. There's another genius in this world besides him!"

Throughout the conversation, Helian Weiwei remained silent, not showing any particular expression. It was only after the Supreme finished his last sentence that she raised the corner of her lips and smiled. "I decline."

With just four words, uttered lazily, the girl refused without a hint of hesitation. It left Li Feng, who had just entered the room, stunned.

Did he hear correctly? Did someone actually reject the Supreme Master?

Did this girl have any idea who was standing in front of her?

Many families in the capital yearned to be under the tutelage of the Supreme Master, but their wishes were all denied. And now, the Supreme Master had finally taken an interest in someone, yet this girl said she didn't accept it!

"Why don't you accept?" The Supreme was taken aback, his face flushed with a tinge of grievance.

Helian Weiwei rested her chin on her hand and spoke lightly, "From what the old man said, it seems you want to take someone else as your apprentice, but he rejected you?"

"Hmm." The Supreme didn't intend to hide the truth.

Li Feng was surprised. Someone rejected the Supreme Master? Who could it be? How come he hadn't heard about it?

Helian Weiwei collected the silver in her hand and smiled. "Helian Weiwei. I won't be a substitute for anyone."

"Helian Weiwei? Why does that name sound so familiar?" Li Feng furrowed his brows and glanced in the girl's direction.

The Supreme grew anxious, and his tone became more sincere. "Girl, you've misunderstood. I don't see you as a substitute. I genuinely want to take you as my apprentice. There will never be another apprentice like you in my life!"

Helian Weiwei stopped moving, her eyes flashed slightly. Perhaps having a master wouldn't be a bad idea after all. This wasn't the modern world, and having more allies was better than having more enemies. With guidance from others, she could avoid unnecessary detours in her cultivation.

"Alright, but for the martial arts creations I provide, I expect to receive silver as usual."

As soon as the Supreme Master heard the word "alright," he felt like he had found the North. He couldn't care less about the silver, laughing and stroking his white whiskers. "Give, give, give! Whatever the apprentice wants, the master will provide! Once you're an apprentice, the old man will introduce you to the most handsome man in the capital, someone a hundred times better than that Murong Shizi!
