Recording Disciples, Shangguan's Farewell
Upon signing the covenant, Gu Lan, in the presence of Elder Nightfall and Shangguan Yuyang, accepted the offering Chen Feng presented as a token of apprenticeship, formally acknowledging him as a named disciple.
The token was a copper coin left by Chen Feng's parents, a humble memento, unlike the Divine Sky Ring.
Yet, to Chen Feng, this coin held a far greater significance. It was a cherished relic from his parents, a symbol of his enduring affection and longing for them.
By offering this coin as his token of apprenticeship, Chen Feng regarded Gu Lan as a venerable elder akin to his own parents.
"One day as a master, lifelong as a father," Chen Feng reverently bowed before Gu Lan, expressing his respect and gratitude.
Observing Chen Feng's earnest demeanor, Gu Lan couldn't help but shake his head in resignation. Despite the impending departure of this lively young disciple, he found himself oddly reluctant to bid farewell.
