Chapter 373: The Boy Who Want Became a Disciple

Bai He looked at the corpse of the old man lying on the ground.

His expression was indifferent.

"Host, why don’t you stay at Last Stop Inn for the night for now?"

Bai He shook his head. "Forget it. Let’s leave."

Bai He could no longer stay in this place.

He had only been here for less than an hour, yet he had already encountered so many things.

Who knew how many more troubles were waiting for him in the future?

It seemed that he still had not prepared himself enough before coming here.

...

The frail looking boy was surrounded by several people.

These people were just like the man Bai He had encountered earlier.

Seriously... What kind of horrible place was this?

Bai He took out a loose robe from his storage ring and put it on himself.

After that, no one paid much attention to him anymore.

However, Bai He’s gaze accidentally landed on the fair and clean looking boy.

There was simply no way he could ignore him.

"Help! Young Master, please save me!"

Bai He felt rather helpless. Why had this boy come to a place like this?

He looked even more like prey than Bai He did.

"No one is going to save you. Give up on that idea."

The boy closed his eyes and his heart was filled with despair.

In a place like this, who would be kind enough to save someone else?

He was probably going to die here today.

However, at that very moment, he sensed someone standing in front of him. So, he slowly opened his eyes in a daze.

A figure dressed in a black robe stood before him.

Although the figure was not particularly tall, at this moment, he seemed like a savior.

He held a longsword in his hand and it was an exceptionally beautiful sword.

"Let him go, and you can leave." Bai He’s voice was neither loud nor soft.

It was just loud enough for all of them to hear.

Forget it.

Even if he was being deceived, then so be it.

It was not the first time Bai He had been tricked.

Even if this really was another trap, he still could not ignore a scene like this.

If it was real and he chose to turn a blind eye, then would he not be helping evil flourish?

"Where did you come from? Are you so ugly that you have to hide your face?"

Bai He raised his head, revealing his beautiful features.

The man’s saliva nearly started dripping and he said, "Another beautiful boy. Looks like I really struck gold today. From now on, the two of you will follow me and serve me well. As long as you satisfy me, I guarantee that you will enjoy a life of luxury."

The man’s hand reached toward Bai He.

However, Bai He swung his sword and knocked it away.

The strike hurt so much that the man cried out in pain.

Bai He then spoke impatiently. "I will warn you one last time. Either get lost, or stay here. If you leave, you live. If you stay, you will leave here lying on the ground."

Bai He’s voice was that of a young boy. Yet the feeling he gave others was as though he had already endured countless hardships.

He was so stern and composed that no one could ignore his presence.

"Little boy, don’t speak so arrogantly. Otherwise, the consequences will be beyond what you can bear."

The man took several steps backward.

A long tail emerged from behind him.

Even his eyes and the expression on his face changed completely.

"A wolf demon?"

Not only him, but even the two lackeys beside him had transformed from demons as well.

There were far too many chaotic scents in this place.

Because of that, Bai He had not even noticed their demonic aura.

Even if he had sensed it, he never would have guessed that they were actually demons.

If they were demons, then things would be much easier.

"A wolf demon and two rat demons. That is rather interesting. Unfortunately for you, the road to heaven is open, yet you refused to take it. The gates of hell are closed, yet you insist on forcing your way in!"

In the boy’s eyes, although Bai He was hidden beneath a loose robe, he still appeared incredibly imposing.

His swordsmanship was dazzling.

It was a style of swordsmanship the boy had never seen before.

If he could also learn such swordsmanship, then perhaps no one in this place would ever bully him again.

His heart was suddenly filled with endless hope.

The two rat demons and the wolf demon were not especially powerful.

However, in this place, they could still be considered to possess average strength.

They did not dare provoke truly powerful opponents.

They only dared to target those who looked easy to bully.

For example, this boy.

And at this very moment, that also included Bai He.

In only a brief instant, Bai He dealt with all three of them with ease.

He casually collected the three demon cores. Then he turned around and looked at the young man behind him. "It is alright now."

Suddenly, the boy dropped to his knees before Bai He.

Bai He was startled.

However, he did not think much of it.

After all, it was only natural for someone he had just saved to feel grateful.

"Young Master, please accept me as your disciple."

"Huh?" This time, Bai He was completely stunned.

Was this real, or was it fake?

Or was he simply overthinking things?

A disciple?

"You want to become my disciple?" Bai He had been criticized by Xu Feng all day long.

He had already lost confidence in himself.

Originally, Ye Shiyuan had never really allowed him to teach him anything.

Most of what Xu Feng had learned was through self study. Yet now, someone actually wanted to take him as his master.

"Yes, Young Master. Please accept me as your disciple."
