"So, uncle, although you have only one master, you actually have two masters. That's great." Gu Liyue said.

Nie Hengzhou said with a hint of regret on his face: "Yes, but I was also focused on practicing swordsmanship before, and didn't spend much time on refining weapons."

Gu Liyue sensed his emotions, and she raised her head slightly to look at him.

He only said calmly, "I don't call the Fourth Elder Master, even though I respect him as my Master in my heart."

Gu Liyue comforted him, "I think the title is not important. As long as you consider him as your master in your heart, he is your master. I think the Fourth Elder must also consider you as his disciple."

Nie Hengzhou said quietly, "In the eyes of the world, people can only have one master. If you change your master midway through your cultivation, you will be ridiculed and cursed. It's like betraying your original master."

Gu Liyue frowned and said, "If I wanted to take the three elders as my teachers from the beginning, would I be cursed by the world?"

Nie Hengzhou knew that she didn't understand some of the rules of this world, but he didn't expect her to have such thoughts. He didn't know how to answer her.

Gu Liyue thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, then I won't become your disciple. But if I don't, will the elders refuse to teach me?"

Nie Hengzhou felt that Gu Liyue was a bit unorthodox, but he also felt that what she said made some sense.

But if she didn't become his disciple, wouldn't she still have to call him "Uncle Master"? No, he couldn't let that happen. He had to think of a solution.

He said, "Or you can do as I did, choose a major and minor in the others, and then find a master first."

"But can the other elders teach me?" Gu Liyue asked.

Nie Hengzhou said firmly, "I think the dean and elders in the academy are all very good. They appreciate talent and will be willing to teach you."

But then he heard Gu Liyue say, "Since the dean and elders of the academy are so kind, then I won't become their disciple. They should be willing to teach me, right?"

When Nie Hengzhou heard this, he said: "..." That makes sense. He didn't know how to respond!

Seeing that Xinghua Lane was almost here, Gu Liyue said, "Let me think about it. Uncle Nie, do you want to sit in the shop?"

Nie Hengzhou's long eyelashes were like crow feathers. He looked at her deeply and said, "I'm going to Duobao Pavilion to deliver the goods first. I'll come back after I'm done."

Gu Liyue saw him staring at her intently, feeling flustered. She nodded randomly and walked quickly into the alley.

She walked into the store and saw Aunt Yu greeting customers. When Aunt Yu saw Gu Liyue come in, her eyes lit up and she smiled slightly.

Gu Liyue nodded and walked over to the chair next to her and sat down. She took out the pills she had been refining these days.

After Aunt Yu finished greeting the customers, she took the bag of pills from Gu Liyue and said, "Liyue, are you taking a day off today? I knew it."

Gu Liyue said: "Yes, there are still some pills in the store, right?"

Aunt Yu replied, "There's still some left from the last time you brought it. It's just right that you brought it today. Have you had breakfast? I left some chicken porridge in the kitchen. Go have some."

Gu Liyue smiled and said, "Thank you, Aunt Yu. I'll go have some porridge."

She walked into the backyard and went to the kitchen. She saw the spiritual chicken porridge warming on the stove. As soon as she opened the lid, she smelled the rich aroma. Her stomach growled as if it was a conditioned reflex. She had only eaten one spiritual fruit this morning, so she was naturally hungry when she saw the delicious food.

She called Xiaoxuan out, served porridge for herself and Xiaoxuan, and sat under the pear tree to eat. Xiaoxuan also ate with relish.

After watching Xiaoxuan finish eating and packing up, Gu Liyue said to Xiaoxuan, "Let's talk."

Xiao Xuan knew what she was going to talk about: "I think you can become a very good sword cultivator. Sword cultivators have the strongest combat power."

"But what about alchemy and talisman drawing? I think I'd enjoy that too."

Xiao Xuan also heard the conversation between her and Nie Hengzhou in the space. It said, "How about you choose the sword path first? If other elders are willing to teach you later, like Nie Hengzhou, that would be great. If not, then we can think of another way."

Gu Liyue leaned back in her chair. "Alas, how come in the world of immortal cultivation, we can only have one master? Aren't we allowed to develop in many areas?"

Xiaoxuan explained, "It's mainly because there's so much to learn in each subject, and it requires a lot of energy and time. Everyone's afraid of not mastering it, so how can they have the energy to study more?"

Gu Liyue stood up, picked up Xiaoxuan and walked to the store. Aunt Yu had finished her work by then. Seeing Gu Liyue's worried look, she asked, "What happened?"

"Aunt Yu, I'm about to choose a master, but I want to have three masters. Do you think it's possible?"

Aunt Yu looked at her in surprise: "You want to cultivate three sects? I know you are full of energy, but in Qingxuan Continent, you can only worship one master."

Aunt Yu thought for a moment and comforted her, "However, the dean and elders of Qingxuan Academy are not ordinary people. Perhaps their views on this matter are different from those of ordinary people. You can try to understand it."

Gu Liyue thought: Yes, maybe I'm as lucky as Nie Hengzhou! Don't think too much about it yet, just pass the test first and then I'll have to submit a good result.

She nodded and said, "Aunt Yu, I'm planning to learn to draw talismans too. Should we consider selling them in our shop?"

Aunt Yu replied, "I'm worried that you'll be too tired, having to refine the elixir and draw the talisman. I don't know if it will delay your cultivation."

Gu Liyue said, "You can try selling it. If I can't take care of it, you can ask my classmates for help."

Aunt Yu smiled and said, "Okay, then we have to change the name of our store too."

"Otherwise, just remove the word elixir." Gu Liyue made a simple and rough decision.

"Okay, let's do this for now. I've prepared some spiritual herbs and materials for drawing talismans for you, but I don't have much. How about I go out and buy some?"

Gu Liyue said: "Okay, I'll look after the store, you go ahead?"

She remembered that she hadn't eaten barbecue for a long time, and somehow she suddenly felt craving for it. But then she thought it would be difficult to arrange a barbecue because there were too few people. So she thought about it and decided to invite all the familiar classmates to have a meal together as a graduation party!

"Aunt Yu, why don't you buy me some barbecue food, enough for a dozen people? Buy two spiritual chickens and a few pounds of spiritual mutton and spiritual beef, as well as some vegetables and mushrooms. I want to treat my classmates to a barbecue meal."

Aunt Yu agreed and went to the street.

After a while, Nie Hengzhou arrived. Gu Liyue asked him to sit in the store and poured him a cup of tea.

"Uncle Nie, I've thought about it. I want to cultivate three disciplines. If the dean and the elders don't agree with me taking three masters, then I won't. As long as they allow me to learn, they can't stop me from learning just because I haven't taken a master, right?"

Nie Hengzhou was surprised by Gu Liyue's determination. He said, "Perhaps I can ask my master for you."

Gu Liyue was thinking the same thing: "Thank you, Uncle Nie."
