Chapter 98 The Stepson Who Married into a Wealthy Family with His Mother (9)

Xu Fu knelt on the prayer mat, his eyes fixed on the offering table in front of him, where two coins were placed.

Xu Fu grabbed it, threw it to the ground, and the two coins opened and closed in a flash.

The old Taoist priest behind him wanted to stop it but couldn't—

In one day, he was outmaneuvered three times by a young man.

Even the patriarch could tolerate it, but he couldn't, so he stepped forward and delivered a flying kick.

They almost kicked Xu Fu right under the offering table.

Xu Fu wasn't annoyed. After getting up, he calmly dusted himself off.

"Master and the Grandmaster have both agreed to let you accept me as your disciple—"

"Where is my room? When can I eat? When can I start practicing martial arts?!"

"You, I—" The old Taoist priest nearly fell backward in anger, about to throw what he was holding at Xu Fu's face.

Unexpectedly, Xu Fu turned around, grabbed his bag, and left.

"Master, where do I live? I won't be sleeping in the same room with you tonight, will I?"

Do you snore at night? Does it affect my sleep?

"I'm still at the age where I'm growing, and I can't even sleep well at night, how can I grow taller and stronger?!"

Just as Xu Fu was about to enter the last room in the courtyard,

Enraged, the old Taoist priest roared at the man, "Get the hell over here—"

Xu Fu casually tossed aside his backpack, walked up to the old Taoist priest with a smile, and knelt down straight down.

"Master, please have some tea—" Xu Fu took out a small bottle of wine from his pocket.

He forcefully pried open the lid and handed it to the person.

"Due to limited resources, I will offer tea instead of wine to my master today!"

Seeing Xu Fu's actions, the old Taoist priest was no longer angry, and his eyesight had cleared.

He took the wine and put it aside, then grabbed Xu Fu's arms with both hands, holding him tightly.

"My good disciple, tell your master the truth."

"Was your action just now a clever trick or a hidden scheme?"

"Or is it you who possess the ring's spatial dimension—" The old Taoist smiled, a glint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

He looked Xu Fu up and down, as if trying to see right through him...

Xu Fu knew he was in trouble and immediately struggled to break free from the other's control.

But he struggled for a long time, and the old Taoist's hand seemed to be welded to his body.

Xu Fu could only sheepishly reply to the people, "Master, what are you saying? We must adhere to science now—"

"Aren't things like 'hidden universes' and 'mustard seed spaces' just things from mythology?!"

"I'm just a kid, how could I possibly have that kind of thing?!"

"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it," the old Taoist finally released Xu Fu.

He stroked his gray beard with a smug satisfaction—

"Since you've come to me of your own accord, wanting to be my apprentice..."

"I hope you won't regret it later!" A glint of light flashed in the man's eyes, then disappeared in an instant.

People left Xu Fu aside and offered three sticks of incense to the golden statue of their ancestral master.

A man muttered to himself for about ten minutes before finally saying to Xu Fu, "Come here and kowtow three times—"

"Then we'll do the paperwork again. Whether this matter can be accomplished today depends on whether the patriarch agrees!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Fu knelt down straight and respectfully kowtowed three times.

Then I made a round of paper money.

The paper money fell to the ground with a crisp clinking sound, but the result was not as expected.

"Complete harmony, complete yang, it seems the patriarch disagrees—"

The old Taoist's eyes shone brightly, and he was about to pull Xu Fu up...

Xu Fu quickly picked up the two coins, bowed three times towards the golden statue of the patriarch, and...

It was thrown to the ground again—

"Fully open, completely yin, kid, you're having a run of bad luck!" the old Taoist said gloatingly.

"Things shouldn't happen more than three times. I'll try one last time—" Xu Fu refused to believe it.

He picked up the paper money and threw it forcefully to the ground.

"If this doesn't work, I'll leave immediately—" Xu Fu snorted coldly.

Upon seeing the paper money opening and closing on the ground, Xu Fu felt a sense of exhilaration.

He said smugly to the old Taoist priest beside him,

"The patriarch saw my perseverance and was finally moved by my sincerity—"

"This time, we've truly become master and disciple!"

The old Taoist priest snorted coldly, "Hurry up and kowtow to your master to express your gratitude—"

Xu Fu didn't stand on ceremony and kowtowed three times to the man, but this time he didn't offer him a toast.

"Get up! From now on, you'll sleep in the study, and you can read any of the books there—"

"Ask me again if you don't understand anything. Also, from now on, you'll be responsible for our three meals a day."

"Every morning after offering incense to the ancestral master, we clean the hall."

The old Taoist priest spoke as he walked, leading Xu Fu to a secluded little room.

After opening the door, he was about to leave when Xu Fu quickly grabbed him and said hastily...

"Master, you still haven't told me which books I should read to get started."

"And how to cultivate internal energy, and how to cultivate magic?"

The old Taoist priest slapped Xu Fu's hand away and left without looking back.

The voice carried from afar: "Look at the bottom shelf first."

"Look upwards layer by layer, and what you need to understand will naturally become clear."

"If you don't understand, hurry up and go cook! I'm starving!"

Xu Fu did not respond, but laboriously moved his backpack inside.

The room only had two rows of bookshelves and a desk; there wasn't even a bed...

Xu Fu had no choice but to simply sweep the ground, disregarding the risk of exposing the space.

Xu Fu searched inside for a long time and finally took out a small tent.

It was set up on one side of the bookshelf.

By the time Xu Fu finished tidying up the room, more than an hour had passed.

The sky outside was already dark, and I remembered that the old man had been clamoring for food for a long time.

Xu Fu entered the kitchen and found only some rice and a little oil and salt on the stove.

There was absolutely nothing edible!

Xu Fu could only take out a bucket of fried chicken from his spatial storage.

Halfway there, it was in a bag, which he conspicuously handed over to the old Taoist priest.

Now that people know he has a spatial ability, Xu Fu, for the sake of a happy life in the future...

Of course, I won't hide it anymore!

"Since Master wants it, let's see if he has the ability—"

Xu Fu simply threw the things in front of the man, right in front of him.

I casually pulled out a bottle of iced cola—

"Master, you've never tried fried chicken with cola before, have you?!"

"This is how we eat all the time outside the mountains—"

"My apprentice brought this for you today, so you should have a good taste."

Xu Fu placed the item in front of the old Taoist priest, and the fragrance immediately filled his nostrils.

But with his cheap apprentice still standing in front of him, he couldn't lose face.

The old Taoist priest struck a pose before waving his hand at Xu Fu, "I understand, you may leave—"

Xu Fu also felt a bit hungry and immediately went back to his room.

He took out the remaining half of the fried chicken, sat on the threshold of the study, and ate it with relish by himself.
