Becoming a Disciple

The Blessed Child had never received this much attention before and was afraid of everyone surrounding him. He was fearful and disgusted at Old Man Mu, who was standing on his shoulders. As for the Dragon King and his party, including Shangguan Ru, who had pleaded for leniency on his behalf, they were bloodthirsty and evil people from another world in his eyes.

"I, I..."

"You what? I want you to recite the eighth chapter of Wayless Qigong, is there 'I' in the passage?" asked Old Man Mu as he lifted his feet and stamped on the child's shoulder, showing no mercy even to a child of about 12 years of age.

The Blessed Child could not bear the pain and shouted. Shangguan Ru took a step forward before managing to control her impulse with considerable effort, her hatred for Old Man Mu growing even deeper now.
