With such words, even though Chen Feng had no intention of becoming the other party's apprentice, he was still a little moved.
A strong person who has surpassed the master will reap great rewards with just a few pointers. Not to mention becoming a blockbuster, at least he can be guaranteed to stand out.
However, the other party's eagerness to accept his disciples is really thought-provoking.
After experiencing so many things, Chen Feng understood that there is no free pie in the sky. Even if there is a pie in the sky, it is a poisonous pie.
The most important thing is that this senior feels so weird and unpredictable!
Therefore, even if he did not become a disciple in prison, he would not be able to agree to the offer easily.
"Being recognized by seniors is really a blessing from heaven! It's just that I was a disciple before me, but now I'm rushing to become a disciple. I'm afraid something will go wrong. Things happened too suddenly. I need to calm down before making a decision!"
Taking a deep breath, Chen Feng suppressed the messy thoughts in his heart, showing a bit of hesitation and a bit of doubt on his face.
"Senior, have you always been in the capital? Did you accept your mantle and stay here forever and not go out at will?"
"Um!"
When the guardian heard this, he hummed slightly, and his voice became obviously cold and stern, as if he was very unhappy.
"Are you questioning me? Do you know how many people in the world want to be my apprentice? Chen Feng, do you really think I have to accept you as my apprentice?"
"No...Senior, you misunderstood, I..."
Chen Feng's thoughts were revealed by the other party. A hint of embarrassment appeared on Chen Feng's face, and he opened his mouth to explain.
But as soon as the words came out, the other party waved his hand and stopped him!
"Okay, no need to say more! Since I have followed you for so long, I naturally know your character! I sincerely want to accept you as my disciple. Since you have doubts about some things, there is no harm in telling you!"
The old man's shining eyes under his messy hair were fixed on Chen Feng. After thinking for a while, he slowly spoke.
A hoarse, dry voice sounded in the silent hall, giving it a vaguely eerie feeling.
"First of all, to answer your first question, I have indeed been staying in the capital for decades. Due to certain agreements, I can only stay in the capital, and I can only stay here.
In the main hall!"
"Secondly, as my successor, you must not only pass on my skills, but also my responsibilities. Therefore, if you agree to be my apprentice, you must also guard this place. Unless there is something special, you must not go out easily!"
"What?"
Hearing this, Chen Feng's expression couldn't help but change!
Things were indeed not that simple. He had felt inappropriate before. As the other party's disciple, he had to sacrifice his freedom for the rest of his life. This was absolutely intolerable.
If you just want to pursue martial arts and want to step into a higher realm, there is nothing wrong with agreeing to the other party.
Not only do you have such a super master, but you also have such a quiet place to practice martial arts. The process of practicing martial arts will definitely be more effective with half the effort.
But he is not that paranoid, nor is he a loner.
There are so many things waiting for him to do now, how could he give up his freedom and stay here forever?
"I'm sorry, senior, I can't agree to this! I still have too many things to do, so I can't stay here with peace of mind, so you'd better find someone else!"
"well!"
After listening to Chen Feng's words, the guardian shook his head and sighed softly, seeming to feel regretful.
"Actually, I have long expected that you would make this choice. As a young man, it is indeed a bit embarrassing for you to be tied here like this for the rest of your life! However, have you ever thought about who will guard the capital if I die?
To maintain worldly stability?”
"As a human being, you must do something valuable! For the sake of national justice, someone must sacrifice!"
"Especially now, warriors from all sides appear frequently, Xuanmen is even more ready to move, and the entire society is about to enter a period of chaos. This requires someone to scare the heroes so that they dare not make mistakes! Otherwise, once the society enters a period of chaos, there will be
Thousands of families have suffered!”
"Sacrificing personal freedom to maintain the peace and stability of millions of families is what every warrior should do. At the moment, it seems that no one is more suitable than you, so you should think about it carefully and don't reject it so quickly!"
These words sounded from the heart, sincere and full of righteousness and fraternity.
If it were Chen Feng a few years ago, he would definitely have agreed in a flash.
However, he is no longer an impulsive boy.
Giving up the ego and benefiting everyone may seem full of righteousness, but it is just empty words!
If you can't even protect your own family and friends, what qualifications do you have to benefit everyone?
