Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 199 The Gu God is immortal!

Although Situ Yan was not afraid of Master He Ling, he didn't want to offend him. After all, they were old friends who had known each other for many years.

If they quarreled over a disciple, they would be laughed at by outsiders and become a laughing stock.

"Well, there's no rush for this kind of thing."

Situ Yan was thinking about this matter, and he knew that he couldn't rush it, so he decided to win over this guy first.

After all, a forced melon is not sweet. Things like becoming a disciple require mutual consent. We can't let this kid feel a sense of unease.

If I can convince Gu Yuan to agree in advance, I can wait for Junior Brother He Ling to come back and discuss it with him. If Junior Brother He Ling can give this disciple to me, that would be the best. If not, I will have to pay some expensive price and do him a favor. I don't believe that he will not agree.

As for other things, Situ Yan couldn't guarantee it, but when it comes to wealth, there are not many people in the entire Yaowang Mountain who can compare with him!
As for Gu Yuan's polite refusal just now, Situ Yan didn't think it was a big deal, and was even quite satisfied.

Although he was indeed impressed by Gu Yuan's talent and wanted to take him in as his apprentice, he didn't want to recruit an ungrateful person.

If Gu Yuan agreed directly, he would be ungrateful and greedy, and he would definitely look down on him.

People are all made of flesh and blood. After a long time, I will become familiar with this kid Gu Yuan, and show him some favors so that he will owe me more favors. Then, when I have both benefits and favors, I don’t believe that this kid won’t be tempted!
Even if we take a step back and say that even if Master He Ling disagrees and Gu Yuan disagrees, then the worst that can happen is that Gu Yuan will have to worship two masters.

When the time comes, Master He Ling will teach him swordsmanship, and I will teach him alchemy, which will be a happy thing for everyone.

Although he thought this in his heart, Situ Yan naturally couldn't say it on the surface.

"I just said it casually. Since you don't want to, it's up to you."

Situ Yan said this and then gave some pointers: "Although you have refined the Soul-Enriching Pill, this doesn't mean anything. It's a stretch to call you an alchemist."

"I advise you to get more exposure to pill recipes and refine more spiritual medicines. Only by accumulating more experience can you truly live up to the title of alchemist."

"That's what the uncle said."

Gu Yuan naturally accepted it humbly.

Situ Yan recalled what Gu Yuan had just said: "By the way, you said you had something else to ask me?"

"It's like this, Uncle Master. This morning, Lu Kun, a true disciple of the Gu God Cult, found me..."

Gu Yuan recounted what happened this morning without hiding anything.

Finally, he added, "As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in a hundred battles. I came here to ask you, uncle, about this person's background."

"The other party has already come to my door. I can't be completely in the dark and not even know their identity."

Situ Yan frowned and looked at Gu Yuan a few more times, a little surprised: "You are lucky, kid. This Green Shadow Sword Butterfly is a descendant of an ancient strange insect. If there is a chance to fully activate its bloodline and let it transform into a true ancient strange insect Green Jade Sword Butterfly, it would be like raising a being with potential comparable to that of a Yuanshen Zhenxian."

"Master, you're joking."

Gu Yuan gave a bitter laugh: "How can an ancient strange insect be obtained so easily?"

"To transform this Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly into a Jade Sword Butterfly, the effort and resources required to refine it are no less than cultivating a cultivator into a Yin God or Yang God. How could this disciple be so worthy and capable..."

"Ugh……"

Situ Yan just sighed:
"It's no wonder that Lu Kun, the true disciple of the Gu God Cult, would be tempted. The Gu God Cult practices the Gu Dao and is particularly passionate about Gu insects, not to mention exotic insects like the Green Shadow Sword Butterfly. This insect is of extraordinary significance to the Gu God Cult's disciples."

As he spoke, Situ Yan shook his head and said:
"If I were him, I'd probably be tempted as well. It's not just Lu Kun, maybe other disciples of the Gu God Cult have their eyes on you too." "As for Lu Kun... I've heard of him."

Having said that, Situ Yan didn't keep the secret any longer and said, "Lü Kun himself is not bad. Although he has a good talent for cultivation and is a true disciple of the Gu God Sect, he has not yet forged a golden elixir. With your talent, you will catch up with him sooner or later. However..."

"This boy is the beloved grandson of the Gushen Cult's Grand Elder, the Heavenly Worm Patriarch. This Heavenly Worm Patriarch is a powerful Yang God."

"Heavenly Worm Ancestor?"

Thinking of how generous Lu Kun was in taking out four rare items at once this morning, Gu Yuan nodded subconsciously and understood why the other party had such a fortune.

As the grandson of the powerful Yangshen, it is normal for him to have a wealthy fortune.

It’s no wonder that Lu Kun looks so arrogant and conceited. With a powerful Yangshen as his backer, how could he not be arrogant?

As for this ancestor of the Heavenly Worm, Gu Yuan had also heard of him.

This person has come a long way in the art of Gu, and has almost reached the terrifying state of "the immortal Gu God".

This person can transform into tens of millions of poisonous insects and distribute them throughout the southern border. Even if all other poisonous insects die, as long as there is one poisonous insect that survives, the whole body can be restored to its original state.

It is said that there was once a true immortal who disliked him and attacked the ancestor of the sky worm. However, because of the ancestor's special magical powers, although he was seriously injured, he was eventually able to escape.

This notorious and troublesome existence has already stood at the top of the food chain in the entire southern Xinjiang, and no one dares to provoke it.

Seeing that Gu Yuan was silent, Situ Yan thought that Gu Yuan was worried about this, and waved his hand nonchalantly:
"Don't worry. His Gushen Cult is powerful, but this is Qiongming Xianfang. Even if Lu Kun had ten times the courage, he would never dare to do anything. Just stay here and you will be safe."

"As for the Heavenly Worm Ancestor, it's not worth it for him to embarrass a junior like you."

"The disciple understands."

Of course, Gu Yuan would not say that he was planning to do something.

"As long as you know."

Situ Yan said:

"Also, the Red Dragon Palace is about to open. Although the Qiongming Immortal Square is quite safe, there's no guarantee that some daring individuals will cause trouble. You'd better behave yourself."

Gu Yuan naturally nodded in agreement, and as if he had thought of something, he added, "By the way, I don't want to reveal any information about my alchemy skills for the time being. Please keep it a secret for me, uncle."

"okay."

Situ Yan glanced at Gu Yuan, guessing that Gu Yuan wanted to keep a low profile, and simply agreed.

After chatting with Situ Yan for a while, Gu Yuan said goodbye and left.

"Ok?"

After leaving the alchemy room and turning a corridor, Gu Yuan suddenly felt like he was being watched. He paused and looked around, but found nothing.

Arriving at the lobby on the first floor, he found the middle-aged steward from last time. Gu Yuan took off a bag of spirit stones from his waist and bought some spiritual medicines, intending to go back and refine some pills.

However, this time, the spiritual medicines he bought were somewhat different from last time. Most of them were spiritual medicines needed to refine other unfamiliar pill recipes.
