Chapter 196: Accepts the Disciple

Chapter 196: Accepts the Disciple

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, two years had passed. During these two years, Meng Zhang spent most of his time near Date Spice Oasis, only briefly leaving to return to Taiyi Sect a few times.

Two years ago, both Golden Blade Sect and Qiaoshou Sect obtained a Lesser Foundation Building Pill from Dan Yihu. Golden Blade Sect's Sect Master Ruan Yuan attempted to break through to the Foundation Building stage with the help of the pill but failed and suffered some minor injuries. On the other hand, Qiaoshou Sect's Sect Master Jin Qigu successfully achieved Foundation Building after taking the pill. Recently, Jin Qigu had just emerged from seclusion, and Qiaoshou Sect was preparing to hold a Foundation Building dharma meeting in her honor.

Meanwhile, Taiyi Sect continued to develop steadily without any major events. Thanks to Meng Zhang's efforts in the past two years, the area that originally belonged to Twin Success Valley had returned to a peaceful state. Through numerous battles, Meng Zhang had earned quite a reputation, proving his formidable combat prowess to all the loose cultivators who sought to take advantage of the area. Even a Foundation Building stage loose cultivator fell victim to Meng Zhang's dual-sword technique.

On this afternoon, as usual, Meng Zhang absorbed the intense sun essence at a hill in Date Spice Oasis to refine the true qi within him. After completing his practice for the day, he glanced at a certain spot behind the hill and jokingly scolded, "Hey, why are you hiding there? Come out!"

A little while later, a young man who appeared to be no more than eleven or twelve years old but had the stature of an adult timidly emerged from behind the hill. Approaching Meng Zhang, the shy young man showed a slightly embarrassed smile and respectfully bowed, saying, "Greetings, Master."

"Dawei, what are you doing hiding there? Do you have something on your mind?" Meng Zhang's attitude toward his first disciple was very kind.

"Master, are we going to leave this place in a few days?" Dawei asked.

"Why, feeling a bit reluctant?" Meng Zhang reassured him, "Don't worry, your parents and family will leave with you. They will settle in the Taiyi Sect's territory. Though this place is your hometown, it's not as safe as the Taiyi Sect."

Seeing Liu Li (Colored Glaze), the green cat, Niu Dawei's face showed an eager expression, seeming eager to join the fun. "You can go, just remember not to play with Liu Li (Colored Glaze) too late," Meng Zhang instructed.

As soon as Meng Zhang finished speaking, Niu Dawei joyfully followed Liu Li (Colored Glaze) like a pardoned man and ran off.

Most spirit pets didn't like staying in their spirit beast bags. Since he acquired these two little creatures, Meng Zhang allowed them to roam freely most of the time, as long as they didn't stray too far from him.

Over the years, the two little creatures had grown rapidly, not in size but in intelligence. Their combat strength didn't improve significantly, but their intelligence had increased remarkably.

At that moment, a figure lightning-fast from the sky landed in front of Meng Zhang. After becoming Meng Zhang's spirit pet, Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) had been getting faster and faster, fully utilizing its talent for speed. Now, without special techniques, no ordinary Foundation Building early-stage cultivator could hope to catch up with Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning).

The name Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) truly lived up to its reputation.

Meng Zhang decided to release Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) to patrol around the oasis regularly. Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) flew to Meng Zhang, fluttering up and down, gesturing in its unique way. Though it couldn't speak, Meng Zhang understood its meaning.

"You daring creature, still coming around. You really think I can't handle you?" muttered Meng Zhang under his breath.
