My Master Knows It All

Chapter 1552: Chapter 360

Cao Zhen, under normal circumstances, doesn’t want to take on any disciples. Taking on a disciple means providing them with a lot of resources. How poor is he now? He already has eight disciples; taking on another one would really drain him dry.

But Ruo Yun the Immortal is different; this woman is a reincarnated great ability.

A reincarnated great ability, when reincarnating, must have hidden away resources well, so she wouldn’t need his resources at all. Perhaps after taking her as a disciple, she might even support him.

The only issue is to see what kind of person this woman is.

If she’s an ungrateful white-eyed wolf, there’s no way he could take her in.

Although he could observe Ruo Yun the Immortal at different times through China Cloud, to see what kind of person she really is.

But if he doesn’t approach Ruo Yun the Immortal, how can they get to know each other first? How can he trick her into becoming his disciple?

Anyway, he doesn’t intend to leave.

Cao Zhen raised his hand and pointed around, speaking with a magnificent righteousness: “Everyone, I’m just here to help you out, not to take your Beast’s Blood Essence, so everyone just go ahead and take the blood.”

Linghu Gudu glanced at the surrounding beasts, ignored the stranger before him, and took off flying forward. A stranger suddenly shows up to help them kill strange beasts, which clearly seems suspicious, so it’s better not to engage with such a person.

Next to him, Ruo Yun the Immortal and another man heard this and also flew away. They indeed had no interest in the blood. If the strange beasts hadn’t blocked their path, they wouldn’t have bothered to kill them.

Seeing the three about to fly away, Cao Zhen immediately moved and chased after them.

The three sensed the presence chasing them from behind, and their expressions changed. Linghu Gudu stopped, looked at him cautiously, and asked, “Why are you following us, Dao Companion?”

Why follow you?

I just want to help you!

Looking at Linghu Gudu, Cao Zhen couldn’t help but complain in his heart. He pointed at the three and said, “The three of you are together, right? I see your strength is about the same as mine, and I’m alone, so I want to join your group and go on an adventure with you. Isn’t there strength in numbers?”

In the past when he went out, it was either someone like Linghu Gudu wanting to join his group, or he was with his disciples, or on his own. He really hadn’t tried joining someone else’s group, nor did he know what to say.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ruo Yun the Immortal didn’t react, but Linghu Gudu and another man’s expressions immediately changed. They felt as if these two were looking at him like a rival trying to steal their treasure or like a rival in love.

The male cultivator refused directly and stated: “We think that three people are enough, and we don’t need to add another outsider we can’t trust.”

Unyielding, Cao Zhen replied, “Well, the three of you and only one of me, what are you afraid of?”

“It’s not fear, it’s that we’re not welcoming you!” The male cultivator’s face had become unpleasant. He really hadn’t met such a person; they clearly didn’t know this guy, and yet he wanted to join them forcefully. After being refused, he still didn’t leave and continued to persist annoyingly.

“No, it’s you who don’t welcome me, but you’re three people. You alone don’t have the final say, right?”

As soon as Cao Zhen finished speaking, Linghu Gudu’s voice came over: “It’s not just him; I also don’t welcome you. You can leave now.”

Cao Zhen really wanted to slap that Linghu Gudu guy away. Don’t you know, I’m trying to help you, and you’re here causing trouble, asking me to leave.

Ignoring the two, he looked directly to Ruo Yun the Immortal at the back and called out, “Immortal, you just used a spear, but from your moves, I noticed hints of swordsmanship.

I suppose, Immortal, you also used a sword before, or maybe you don’t have a suitable sword for now, or for some other reason, you’re using a spear. But your swordsmanship, you haven’t given up on it.

Coincidentally, I also use a sword, so we could spar with each other on swordsmanship.”

Clearly, the once suave Linghu Gudu has now turned into a sycophant, and the male cultivator beside him is apparently also a sycophant. Two sycophants have no decision-making power, so as long as he can get Ruo Yun the Immortal on board, it’s enough.

As for seeing hints of swordsmanship from her spear moves, that’s obviously nonsense. He just knew Ruo Yun the Immortal had a talent for all weapons and had seen her use a sword before, which is why he said this.

The male cultivator they didn’t know snickered at this: “You say her spear techniques have hints of swordsmanship? That’s the biggest joke. We’ve known Ruo Yun the Immortal for so long and traveled from the Eastern Province to the Eastern Wasteland and have never seen her use a sword.

Besides, I myself use a sword, how come I didn’t see any hints of swordsmanship in her spear techniques!”

Cao Zhen replied disdainfully, “If you can’t see it, it just proves your swordsmanship is far inferior.”

“My swordsmanship is inferior?” The male cultivator laughed loudly as if he heard the best joke in the world, “Do you know who I am? I’m known as Hao Sword, a disciple of the Returning Sword Sect.
