Apprentice clues

In the mine hall, all the mine slaves silently watched this scene.

The way they looked at Xiang Fei and Zhong Qing had changed slightly.

In this day and age, the forest is vast, and there are all kinds of birds.

But a mine slave who could befriend a manager had truly never been encountered before.

At this moment, Zhong Qing and Xiang Fei, in their minds, were all branded with the label of 'not to be provoked'.

Even the other managers present had the same thought.

Although Wu Zhao and the other two had only been at the mine for a short time as managers.

Their strength even had the potential to become commanders.

In this world where the strong are revered, even if everyone had the same profession.

Their status, however, was linked to their strength.

This alone filled them with awe.

Among the crowd!

A gaze lingered on Zhong Qing, constantly observing him.

That was Liu Yun.

At this moment, Liu Yun's eyes showed a strange look.

When they first met, she had noticed Zhong Qing.

Others facing her were either respectful.

Or groveling.

Only Zhong Qing was neither servile nor overbearing.

His Heart-Nature was steady, different from ordinary people, confident and calm.

Now seeing him again.

Zhong Qing gave her an even greater impression.

As a mine slave, he could actually befriend a mine manager.

If an ordinary mine slave had this kind of connection, they would probably be so proud they'd float to the heavens, wishing the whole world revolved around them.

But Zhong Qing was exceptionally low-key.

His Heart-Nature was steady, and his methods were extraordinary.

“This person, perhaps, can be subdued.”

“Help me escape the mining area!”

Her eyes were deep.

Deep in her heart, there were some ripples and fluctuations.

During this time, she had been looking for someone who caught her eye.

Only now did Zhong Qing initially meet her standards.

She decided to first make contact with Zhong Qing.

If she could subdue him, she had a ninety percent certainty of escaping the mining area.

Thinking of this, Liu Yun's Divine Thought stirred, and she began a Divine Sense communication with Zhong Qing.

“I have something to discuss; would it be convenient to meet at the ninety-fifth Cave?”

On the other side!

Zhong Qing was currently catching up with the three Wu Zhao brothers.

Hearing someone secretly transmit a message to him.

He raised an eyebrow.

Looking in the direction the sound came from, he saw a graceful figure standing proudly among the crowd.

She seemed completely out of place with those around her.

The faces of the others, more or less, were all dusty and disheveled.

However, that person was extraordinary, ethereal, and spiritual.

She was like the bright moon among the stars, a pearl among pebbles.

Such a person, once she appeared, would inevitably become the focus of attention, an object of adoration.

However, the strange thing was that everyone seemed to be oblivious to her presence.

She was there, but people always subconsciously ignored her existence.

If she hadn't spoken, even Zhong Qing wouldn't have noticed that there was such a unique presence in the mine.

“It's her!”

At this moment, Zhong Qing's heart stirred.

He was not unfamiliar with this woman.

She was the only person in the mine, besides him, who could exist without being suppressed by the copper ring's confinement.

Although they had only met briefly before, the woman had left a deep impression on him.

It's just, what could such a woman want, suddenly looking for him?

At the same time.

The System's voice sounded in his mind.

“Detected that the host's future Disciple has appeared, please go and take him as a Disciple!”

The System's voice made Zhong Qing's eyes light up.

Why did he enter the mine?

Wasn't it to search for the whereabouts of his fifth future Disciple?

He didn't expect that this future Disciple had been around him all along.

It truly echoed the saying: “You search high and low for something, only to find it effortlessly at hand.”

However, Zhong Qing soon developed a new question.

“System, I met her once before, why did you only notify me now?”

“What is destined to be yours will eventually be yours; what is not, you cannot force.”

“Previously, the master-Disciple fate was not apparent. If the System had notified you too early, it would have reduced the host's chances of successfully taking him as a Disciple.”

This concept of fate was ethereal.

But with the System's explanation, Zhong Qing understood.

To put it simply, only by meeting the right person at the right time can one achieve a positive outcome.

Anyway, today was a good day.

The appearance of his future Disciple put Zhong Qing in a good mood.

He replied to Liu Yun almost without hesitation.

“I will definitely be there!”

This answer made Liu Yun a little stunned.

She seemed not to have expected Zhong Qing to agree so readily.

But very quickly, she smiled.

This was a wise choice.

“I'll wait for you!”

As her voice fell, Liu Yun had already silently retreated.

As soon as she left.

Here, Zhong Qing had already bid farewell to the three Wu Zhao brothers.

“Thank you three for today!”

“Another day, I'll treat the three of you to a drink!”

“Now I have an important matter to attend to, so I'll take my leave.”

Wu Zhao laughed aloud: “It is our honor to be invited by Sir.”

“Sir, please go.”

“If you need anything in the future, just let us know.”

Just like that, Zhong Qing bid farewell to the three of them.

He immediately rushed towards the ninety-fifth Cave.

The ninety-fifth Cave was not far from the ninety-seventh Cave.

It was only a few miles away.

Along the way, Zhong Qing walked briskly.

On the other side, Xiang Fei stepped forward and followed.

He was also excited.

“Brother Zhong, I didn't expect you to have such wild connections, even knowing the managers.”

“But I'm not criticizing you, those managers each have immense power!”

“At this time, shouldn't you be consolidating and deepening your friendship with them? Why are you leaving in such a hurry?”

Zhong Qing was in a good mood and said with a smile: “Didn't I say earlier? Of course, I have something important to do.”

“What could be more important than getting on good terms with the managers?”

Xiang Fei was puzzled.

In his simple mind.

Being able to establish a relationship with a manager was something countless people dreamed of.

With this connection, one should try desperately to solidify it.

But his brother, it seemed, was so unconcerned.

He truly saw it in his eyes and felt anxious in his heart.

Zhong Qing didn't say much.

“You'll know when we get there!”

Xiang Fei was the closest person to him in the mine, so there was no need to hide anything.

As he walked quickly, Xiang Fei became even more puzzled.

He and Zhong Qing came to the mine together.

He had never seen him so excited!

At the same time, a question arose in his heart.

What kind of matter could be far more important than befriending the mine manager?

And what kind of matter could make Zhong Qing so excited?

After all, in his eyes, his brother was usually extremely stable!

He rarely showed his emotions on his face.

For a moment, Xiang Fei's curiosity directly exploded.

And when he followed Zhong Qing to their destination.

Xiang Fei's curiosity reached its peak.

He was too familiar with this location!

Earlier, he had found a Yao Beast's inner core near here.

And it was at this location that he was saved by the mysterious woman.

Could it be?

Zhong Qing was here to find that mysterious woman?

Did he and that adult have some kind of connection he didn't know about?
