Chapter 6220: Junior, Donât Push Your Luck
âI agree.â Mu Hu was the first to agree and came forward with his hands raised: âSenior, your fried grasshoppers are delicious, the same for the centipedes. May I have a bag first?â
âScram!â Black Witch Monarch kicked him away but he got back up and begged again.
âHmph.â The monarch ignored him.
âCan I learn your art? M-my talent is terrible.â Li Xian had no confidence.
âTerrible indeed, I donât want to teach a fool.â The monarch didnât hold back.
Li Xian turned red after hearing this. He rarely interacted with outsiders and still had thin skin.
âRight, my talent is bad, but, but I can work hard.â He replied earnestly.
âDid you hear that? He can make up his lack of talent with hard work. Cultivation doesnât rely only on talent.â Li Qiye smiled.
âNo, impossible.â The monarch sensed that Li Qiye was serious, wanting him to take in this group as disciples.
âOh? A septedivine lotus!â A voice interrupted their conversation along with a suffocating aura.
Someone landed in the air, causing the young ones to stagger backward in trepidation. The newcomer was an old man in green. His robe had decorated ribbons fluttering in the air like willow branches. His green hair also branched outward.
He resembled a towering tree commanding respect. His aura was that of an accomplished desolate god.
âI am just a nobody who is currently learning at Orchid Academy.â Orchidcore said humbly.
âOrchidcore.â He frowned slightly after hearing this: âNo wonder, students of the academy are all dragons and phoenixes.â
Orchid Academy didnât have as many students as Sacred Mountain. However, their students achieved plenty and became famous.
The most notable student of the academy was unanimous - Staff Ancestor. This student surpassed Orchid Sage and became the third primal ancestor. Later on, she surpassed extinguishment and became a supreme overlord.
Few had the privilege to see her but her prestige and authority remained. Of course, she didnât stay at the academy during her ascension, only having studied there briefly and learned from Orchid Sage.
Nevertheless, after reaching her prime, she publicly announced that the academy was under her protection. This saved the academy from plenty of headaches and enemies.
âJuniors, itâs time to leave. I will not punish your lack of respect.â Willow Venerable waved his hand.
âWe want this lotus, Iâm sure you wonât compete with us juniors over it, Senior.â The princess said.
âJunior, donât push your luck.â His expression darkened.
âWe should leave, itâs not worth throwing our lives away here.â Li Xian whispered to the princess.
First, his relationship with the young geniuses didnât warrant them taking unnecessary risks. He already appreciated them standing up for him.
âGo before I change my mind.â The venerableâs patience grew thin.
