Chapter 291: Chapter 47: Lici! Vice President, I have decided to raise you_2

This chubby woman was none other than the eighth generation of the Wang family, Miss Wang Licui.

After she made her appearance at the recruitment meeting, she was persuaded by this middle-aged senior brother, who claimed to be recruiting disciples on behalf of the deputy headmaster.

Confirming that the package included free lodging and meals, she willingly followed after him.

As it turned out, she had been waiting for two days in this run-down institution, yet she hadn’t even seen the face of her master.

While the senior brother who claimed to be the highest authority in the academy due to the headmaster’s long-term seclusion, only offered her cold buns to eat.

How did Miss Licui’s luck become so miserable?

Unable to resist her hunger any longer, Wang Licui started nibbling on the cold bun with tear-filled eyes.

The few buns were gone in a few bites.

“Senior brother, I’m hungry.” Wang Licui tearfully looked at her senior brother again.

“What?!” The senior brother opened his half-closed eyes in surprise, “Did you finish that already?”

Then, the senior brother pulled out a few more buns: “Licui, eat slowly, don’t choke.”

Then he closed his eyes once again to relax.

However, the moment his eyes closed, he heard Wang Licui’s voice mixed with sobs saying: “Senior brother, it’s not enough, I’m hungry.”

A little later.

“Senior brother, I’m hungry.”

“Senior brother, I’m hungry.”

…

After a quarter of an hour..

This voice, like a demonic incantation, seemed to have hypnotized him.

He didn’t dare to close his eyes because as soon as he did, the sweet, cute, and pitiful junior sister would say: “Senior brother, I’m hungry.”

He had already fed all of his one-month food reserves to his junior sister.

But the junior sister.. she was still claiming to be hungry.

Senior brother’s face started to look unnatural, this junior sister seemed to have an outstanding appetite.

Their lineage of Yunyang, always emphasized restraint and self-improvement, tried to reduce extraneous conditions as much as possible, to grind their hearts and achieve spiritual harmony.

He had just returned from an external task, just in time to catch the academy’s recruitment for new disciples. He happened upon Wang Licui, and discovered her extraordinary aptitude, she had reached the heavenly chosen level of Top Grade Class C.

Moreover, after talking with her, he found her to be naive and pure-hearted, perfectly befitting the temperament of the Yunyang lineage, so just like finding a treasure, he recruited her as his disciple and brought her back to the Peak of Yunyang Mountain.

However, at this point, he was getting a bad feeling.

This junior sister.

Maybe he had acted hastily in recruiting her.

Just as he was preparing to ask a few questions, a deep and mellow voice broke through from the rusty buildings around them.

“Mingda, you’ve informed us that you’ve recruited a down-to-earth, talented disciple. Is this the young girl you were referring to?”

Once the voice fell, an elderly man in simple clothes emerged from the old stone pavilion.

The old man has a clear and refined demeanor, his gaze deep and gentle, filled with a wise aura.

As soon as he appeared, his gaze fell on Wang Licui.

With just a casual glance, he seemed to have seen through her.

“Very good! Rich bloodline, down-to-earth gaze, truly a rare talent!” Joy graced his face, “Mingda, your luck is commendable, able to snatch such a talent before others did, I consider this a merit.”

Mingda delicately reminded him: “Master, our junior sister seems to have a substantial appetite.”

“Can eat?” The elderly man didn’t mind, “Young people’s ability to eat is a blessing, who didn’t grow up that way? You used to eat a lot too, didn’t I feed you just fine?”

Next, the old man looked toward Wang Licui, appearing more pleased the more he looked: “I am Master Yunyang, and the Deputy Headmaster of the Academy. Are you willing to accept me as your master? With your qualifications, as long as you put in a little effort, you will have the chance to inherit my mantle.”

He was brimming with confidence, thinking that Wang Licui would definitely accept willingly and kneel in respect.

Unexpectedly, Wang Licui shook her head: “I don’t want to.”

“What?”

Master Yunyang was taken aback.

This response was clearly against convention. Besides, this was all just a mere formality. She was already a disciple of the Yunyang lineage.

Before they could respond, Wang Licui blurted, “Our lineage is too poor. The house is so rundown. We have to eat cold buns every day and I never get enough. I don’t want that.”

“Senior brother Mingda lied to me, saying it would be free food and lodging, eat all I want.”

“This…” Master Yunyang looked at his disciple, at a loss for words. This girl, is she really this straightforward?

Master Yunyang’s face immediately turned serious: “Mingda, this is your fault. How could you let the little junior sister eat cold buns?”

Then, Master Yunyang confidently reassured: “Although I am your master, I am also a celestial being in the Purple Abode, and the honorable Deputy Headmaster. How could I not even afford to feed you, a young girl?”

“I promise you, as long as you can eat it, feel free to eat.”

“Really?” Wang Licui opened her eyes wide, somewhat dubious, she looked around and said hesitantly, “Our house seems a bit poor.”

“Being a prestigious celestial being in the Purple Abode and your senior brother Mingda having achieved Tiaren realm cultivation,” Master Yunyang confidently said, “Feeding you, a young girl, is a piece of cake.”

So saying, he waved his hand and tossed a bag filled with spirit stones to Brother Mingda: “Mingda, here are one hundred spirit stones. Take your junior sister to the Heavenly Meals Pavilion within the academy and have a good meal. Eat to your heart’s content, don’t save money for me. Use the remaining spirit stones to buy some fresh ingredients from Changchun Valley for junior sister’s meals.”
