Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System



[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining your Fifth Disciple, Kun Peng! Rewards: Ruler Beast Scripture, Peerless Immortal Cane (Heaven-Ranked Divine Artifact), and 10,000 Bottles of Heaven-Ranked Elixir; One Chance to Draw from the Wheel of Fate!]

[Ding! The Host currently has Five Chances to draw from the Wheel of Fate! Does the Host want to use one of these draws?]

[Ding! The Host currently has Five Chances to draw from the Wheel of Fate! Does the Host want all of them at once?]

Yang Lujia ignored the latter notifications. He only focused on the other rewards he got from him accepting another disciple. Although these things were futile to him, it was still pleasurable to be able to own them for his disciple.

'Ruler Beast Scripture, Peerless Immortal Cane… these names are somewhat formidable-sounding. I hope it can help this child grow up into someone like Little Guang who had already let go of his obsessions regarding how his whole race was slaughtered by another,' Yang Lujia thought as he looked at the little girl dotingly. 

He then reached out to her head and patted her. After that, he searched for a small robe from his inventory if he had one. Fortunately, he found one for little girls and this one was also a divine artifact. Not anyone could just break its defense. This was one of the products he was able to forge during this lifetime. 

'By any sense, is this little girl somewhat a beast? Why did the system give me this Ruler Beast Scripture otherwise?' he contemplated and decided to think against it for the meantime as he had other things to attend to like doting on his new disciple. 

Even Sheng Ao wouldn't be able to receive this kind of treatment from him. After all, he was already quite old for Yang Lujia to dote, but that didn't mean he would lack giving him what he wanted and helping him with his troubles. After all, he came here to the Dragon Emperor Palace, precisely for finding the culprit behind Sheng Ao's situation. 

Yang Lujia lifted the little girl after he dressed her in the robe she gave her. With that, he used his own qi to wash away all the dirt on her face. Now, she looked incredibly stunning for even a beast. He was amused. 

"Ah! Master! I almost forgot about it! My uncle… I mean, the Dragon Emperor…" Long Guang recalled and felt somewhat uncomfortable. 

"I know." 

Yang Lujia looked at the little girl. "From now on, I'm gonna call Little Peng. Regardless of your identity, since you became my disciple and decided to follow me, I will not let any grievances fall upon you." 

Then, he pointed at Long Guang. "That's your second senior brother there. You can call him 'senior brother'."

Little Peng thought about it and nodded as she looked at the smiling Long Guang. She then turned to Sheng Ao's direction. "Fourth senior bwader?"

"Yes." Yang Lujia smiled when she was already able to tell who is which of which. 

"Shiny head?" Little Peng questioned as she pointed at Sheng Ao's bald head. "Shiny!"

Sheng Ao, who was initially happy about being called a senior brother, twitched his mouth and then forced a smile as he did not want to argue with a child. If this was before, however, he would not have reacted this way. Nevertheless, he somehow changed the way he would react to things—that was—after he learned the Golden Lotus Scripture. 

It was just as how his master had told him. Although he was a monk, being that pleasure or other worldly feelings were forbidden for them to feel or at least show to others on the surface, he was still human and capable of feeling these things and these things weren't something he could suppress all the time. He remembered that even the other monks in the Holy Light Palace would get angry and/or would rain greed upon their own. 

Yang Lujia just chuckled and said, "Yes, he's a baldy. You can call him Senior Brother Baldy."

Brownie almost threw up when he heard this and just went back to sleep, pretending not to hear anything. 'What a poor kid! Although your master is extremely powerful, he is really worse than a ghost naming itself a necromancer's son.'

Sheng Ao accepted his fate, and somehow, he did not dislike the name, so he let it be and just went with the flow. Little Peng was still a child. When she grew up in the future, he was certain that she would not call him like that anymore as she would understand. 

However, thinking about it again, Sheng Ao wasn't so sure about it anymore. 

Meanwhile, Yang Lujia noticed the look on Long Guang's face. As it was a pressing issue that was necessary for him to tend to, despite knowing that the Dragon Ancestor had already reached out a hand for help from the temple, he knew that this deal must not be certain as his disciple's face said it all. 

"Let's go," he said, urging everyone awake from their own worlds.

Suddenly, they appeared in the middle building of the entire palace. It was the biggest one among all the small clusters of palaces that were owned by the Dragon Princes. 

"What happened to your uncle again?" Yang Lujia asked once more. 

"He had been poisoned with some kind of flower, according to the Dragon Ancestor. However, I don't know what it exactly is, but for it to be that effective to uncle, who was at the peak of his power in Da Shikong, then it should be something very fatal. In fact, as far as my eyes can see, this flower is slowly away my uncle's vitality, which is quite scary. Although I maintained an indifferent face in front of the Dragon Ancestor, I am still worried about uncle who sheltered me from harm all those years when you were not around, master."

"It seems like I have indirectly formed Karma with him. Let's go for now. This poisonous flower shouldn't be something I will not be able to deal with."
