Chapter 116: Abundant Supplies, Accepting Luo Yunshuang

Qin Xiao had not been stingy. The gifts were more than enough to tempt her.

“You’re sure this is for me?”

Luo Yunbing still found it somewhat hard to believe.

“Of course. I haven’t made a mistake; it is for you. Your two senior sisters received exactly the same things.”

Qin Xiao spoke confidently.

“Master, you actually brought this out?”

Lin Shimeng could not help exclaiming when she saw the gifts.

“Yes. From now on, it will be part of your monthly allowance. You’ll each receive one every month.”

They were talking about the Saint Origin Spirit Fruit. Qin Xiao had previously worried that his disciples might betray him, so he had given it only to Yun Man.

But after observing them for so long, he found that disciples recognized by the system seemed unable to betray him. Even Lin Shimeng had not shared his secrets with her father. It appeared that becoming his disciple ensured their loyalty.

Qin Xiao would no longer hold back. Something as valuable as the Saint Origin Spirit Fruit should help his disciples grow stronger. The system’s supplies seemed intended for them anyway; he merely benefited along with them.

“One hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones, one thousand drops of Spirit Liquid, one Saint Origin Spirit Fruit, you just give these to me like this?”

Luo Yunbing still could hardly believe it. These gifts were worth a fortune. The Spirit Stones alone were worth over a hundred million, and the thousand drops of Spirit Liquid were rare resources. As for the Saint Origin Spirit Fruit, it was worth over a billion and could not be bought even if one had the money.

“Yes, is there a problem? Aren’t you my disciple? What? Do you want to tell others I gave you so many things? Or do you want to betray me?”

Qin Xiao was taking a gamble too, but he trusted the system not to leave such an obvious loophole.

“Of course not. Since I have accepted you as my master, I will honor our bond. How could I betray you? But these gifts are far too generous, Master. I do not deserve them.”

Upon hearing Qin Xiao’s question, Luo Yunbing hurriedly explained.

“Don’t talk about deserving them. You’re my disciple. That means you deserve them.”

Qin Xiao said firmly. He had to hook Luo Yunbing first before he could handle the remaining two disciples.

“Thank you, Master.”

Luo Yunbing was tempted by the gifts, but had been embarrassed to accept them. At his insistence, she dropped to one knee and thanked him.

“No need for courtesy. We don’t do kneeling here. Get up, and don’t kneel in the future either.” Visit NovelPing for the full chapter.

Qin Xiao hurriedly helped Luo Yunbing up.

“Will you still stop your younger sister from becoming my disciple? You can, of course, but shouldn’t you ask what she wants? If you reject resources like these on her behalf, you’ll be depriving her of an opportunity. Everyone has their own destiny. You can’t protect her forever; helping her become strong is the best protection you can give her.”

After dangling the bait, Qin Xiao began playing the emotional card. He could see that Luo Yunbing cared deeply for her younger sister. But since she cared so much, shouldn’t she want her to take him as Master, enjoy these resources, and become strong?

“You’re right, Master. I’ll let my younger sister decide, and I won’t stop her. If she speaks out of turn later, please don’t take offense.”

Luo Yunbing knew he was right. She had thought that becoming Qin Xiao’s disciple would bring trouble, so she had chosen to bear it alone. Now that it proved to be an opportunity, she would not stand in her sister’s way.

Even with such an opportunity, she knew her sister was mischievous and might talk back to Qin Xiao. That was why she asked him not to take offense in advance.

“Sister! Sister! Are you in there?”

Just as they finished speaking, a knock sounded at the door, accompanied by Luo Yunshuang’s voice.

“Stop shouting. Come in.”

Qin Xiao hadn’t expected Luo Yunshuang to arrive so quickly, so he told her to enter.

“Sister, Qin Xiao hasn’t given you a hard time, has he?”

Pushing the door open, Luo Yunshuang rushed straight to Luo Yunbing, terrified that her older sister had been bullied by Qin Xiao.

“Younger sister, show some respect. Master hasn’t given me a hard time at all.”

Seeing her reckless younger sister, Luo Yunbing quickly stepped in to stop her.

“Master? What Master? Older sister, you didn’t really take him as your master, did you?”

Hearing her older sister call Qin Xiao Master, Luo Yunshuang found it hard to swallow.

When she realized her older sister had vanished, she searched everywhere. Later, hearing that her older sister had gone to Drunken Immortal Pavilion, she rushed over, determined to rescue her from humiliation even if she had to pay double the Spirit Stones in compensation.

Yet she was still too late. Her older sister had actually become Qin Xiao’s disciple. She felt a sharp pang of self-blame, thinking her older sister was far too foolish.

“Little sister, do you trust me?”

Instead of answering, Luo Yunbing asked a question.

“What are you saying? Of course I trust you, Sister.”

Confused by her sister’s demeanor, Luo Yunshuang answered honestly.

“If you trust me, honor the wager and become his disciple. If you don’t, then it’s up to you. This is all I can do to help you.” Get faster updates on novelping . com.

Luo Yunbing wanted to tell her sister how many resources Qin Xiao would provide, but she could not bring herself to say it. Qin Xiao had not mentioned them, so she could not decide for him. Besides, she did not want him to think her sister was becoming his disciple only for the resources.

“Older sister, what nonsense are you spouting? Does he have some kind of leverage over you?”

Luo Yunshuang was completely baffled by her sister’s words. What on earth was going on?

“Qin Xiao, did you threaten my older sister? Let me tell you, I’m not afraid of you, and Mysterious Yin Sect disciples don’t fear threats!”

After speaking to her sister, Luo Yunshuang turned on Qin Xiao.

“Younger sister, enough! Stop making a scene.”

Knowing her younger sister’s fiery personality would only cause trouble, Luo Yunbing quickly scolded her.

“Wait a second. I haven’t said a single word since you walked through that door. The two of you were talking the whole time-how did this somehow become my fault again?”

Qin Xiao was dumbfounded. He hadn’t even opened his mouth yet, so how did he end up threatening anyone?

“Then speak! Let’s hear what excuses you have left.”

Chastised by her older sister, Luo Yunshuang obediently found a seat, though she still wore a thoroughly unconvinced expression.

“My turn now? Fine. First, I haven’t threatened your sister. She became my disciple willingly—at least, she is willing now. You listen to her so much, so why not follow her advice and become my disciple? I can offer benefits your sect cannot give you. Otherwise, why would your sister willingly urge you to accept me as your master? Ask her if you don’t believe me.”

Seizing his chance to finally speak, Qin Xiao rattled everything off in one breath, afraid that if he paused, Luo Yunshuang would cut him off again.

“Older sister, is what he said true?”

Skeptical, Luo Yunshuang looked toward her sister for confirmation.

“It’s true. Everything Master said is true. Furthermore, he doesn’t expect us to leave the Mysterious Yin Sect. Once you take him as Master, you’ll understand. You know how I treat you-I would never harm you. If you truly trust me, take him as your master.”

Luo Yunbing tried her best to persuade her sister. This really was an opportunity.

“All right. I’ll do what you say, Sister.”

Luo Yunshuang knew that while anyone else in the world might deceive her, her older sister never would.

Luo Yunshuang reluctantly poured a cup of tea and went before Qin Xiao.

After another standard ceremony, Qin Xiao officially secured yet another Heavenly Spirit Root disciple.
