Chapter 258: Formally becoming a disciple, Tongtian Jiaozhu

Pilanpo looked at the Tang An before her, and knew that Tang An truly accepted everything from the bottom of her heart, but at the same time also guarded the things in her heart that she felt were important.

"Good." Pilanpo was sincerely happy for Tang An, "Then, we will meet again in the future."

She knew that maintaining her usual seclusion was the best arrangement for Tang An.

"Good, see you in the future." Tang An was very expectant, expectant of seeing her grandmother again, seeing her grandmother alive.

Since Pilanpo could go to the future, why couldn't she?

Since three parts are fixed by heaven and seven parts are chosen by people, then the path ahead, regardless of whether it is fixed by heaven, is the path she herself has chosen.

Pilanpo gave Tang An one last hug; actually, she still had many words she wanted to say, but when the words reached her lips, only silence remained.

Tang An also seemed to have many words she wanted to say, but clearly she hadn't thought through how to face Pilanpo.

After Pilanpo left, Tang An finally let out a sigh of relief, leaning limply against the head of the bed.

What she was thinking, no one knew.

"Creak~"

The door was opened; the person who came in this time was Zhao Gongming.

Zhao Gongming walked to Tang An's bedside, the two looked at each other, speechless.

After a long while.

Zhao Gongming broke the silence and said: "You know everything?"

"I know." Tang An's eyes were somewhat complex.

Zhao Gongming's eyes were also complex, "Then you..."

"I want to see him."

"Who?"

Tang An did not cover up anymore, "At the very least, right now I only want to address him as, Tongtian Jiaozhu."

"You..."

"No matter who I am, no matter who I was before, now I am only Tang An." Tang An corrected Zhao Gongming.

Zhao Gongming's eyes carried sorrow and caution, "But..."

Tang An took a deep breath, "Brother Gongming, I've already let go of things, can't you let go?"

Zhao Gongming heard that "Brother Gongming" and shook his head with a bitter smile. "So be it."

"I know my behavior toward you, toward her, toward those who care about her, might look very cruel, very unfair."

"But sorry, things have reached this point, the first thing I can consider can only be myself."

"And what I want to do is what she hasn't completed, and it is also my, Tang An's, business."

"Whether it is her, or me, calling you Brother Gongming is certainly not wrong."

"I hope you can also accept this matter as soon as possible." Tang An changed the subject, "Of course, if you can't accept it as soon as possible, you can choose to be tricked by me a few more times, and after being tricked enough, you'll be able to accept it."

Zhao Gongming smiled helplessly, "So be it."

"Struggling with the past is nothing but sorrow. Whether it is her or you, I hope you can live well, live safely."

"In the past, due to your identity, although I noticed it, I couldn't act rashly, and could only secretly help you."

"From today on, since you called me Brother Gongming, then whatever a big brother should do in the future, I, your Brother Gongming, will do!"

"Don't be afraid of whatever trouble you cause in the future, I, your big brother, will cover for you." Zhao Gongming patted his chest and gave Tang An a bag of jade slips.

"If something happens, crush the jade slip; I'm afraid you won't have enough to crush, I've prepared plenty."

Tang An took the bag of jade slips and didn't stand on ceremony with Zhao Gongming, putting them into her Universe Bag.

"Then Brother Gongming, can I go see the old gentleman now?"

"Shh shh shh..." Zhao Gongming stepped forward to cover Tang An's mouth, "You can't call him old gentleman, the old gentleman doesn't like being called old gentleman."

Tang An heard this, her eyebrows arched. "You don't let me say it, but you say it more than me, right?"

Nezha, who had just returned from buying wontons, saw this scene from outside, and the Fire-Tipped Spear in his hand was already spitting fire.

Really, if it weren't for Sun Wukong and Yang Jian pulling him, he really couldn't be held back. If he went in, he would definitely have to chase Zhao Gongming and fight him.

In the void.

Tongtian Jiaozhu, seeing this scene, raised his hand and flicked a finger toward the void.

Zhao Gongming, who was just about to let go, suddenly jumped up for no reason, clutching his forehead and yelling "Roar roar roar!"

Tang An originally didn't want to laugh, but Zhao Gongming was truly miserable, and the corners of her mouth couldn't be suppressed no matter how she tried.

However, she didn't stay happy for long before she felt a flash of green light before her eyes, and her vision blurred.

When she saw clearly again, she had arrived in a void space.

Arriving here, all the discomfort in Tang An's body disappeared in an instant.

"You are Tongtian Jiaozhu?"

The man before her couldn't even be called handsome; it was a face that was devastatingly, yet refreshingly handsome. It really had nothing to do with the little old man in her inherent impression.

"Little old man?" Tongtian Jiaozhu sat up from his reclining position, "This Venerable?"

"Damn it!"

"You don't play by the rules! You eavesdropped on my inner thoughts?"

Tongtian Jiaozhu had a faint smile on his face, and there was a hint of teasing in his eyes.

What little old man, he was every bit an old urchin.

"Old urchin?"

"I... you..." Tang An covered her mouth, not letting herself have any more inner thoughts.

But covering her mouth couldn't cover the mouth in her heart.

Tongtian Jiaozhu listened with great interest, Tang An's inner thoughts and what she said with her mouth were two different styles. Clearly, it had been a long time since anyone had accompanied him in such banter.

"Are you willing to take me as your master?"

The sentence he said without warning made Tang An's inner activities stop instantly.

Without a shred of consideration, without a shred of hesitation, Tang An "Slap!" knelt right there.

Such a thick thigh, not hugging it would be a fool! Hesitating for even a second would be a disrespect to that second!

Tongtian Jiaozhu didn't say anything else, but his fingers moved slightly, making the Qingping Sword fly in front of Tang An.

"Keep it for self-defense."

"Do whatever you want to do; if the sky falls, this Venerable will carry it for you."

Tang An truly understood what the inner activity of a top-tier sycophant was; this wasn't even her wanting to be a sycophant, it was her subconsciously feeling that she was a top-tier sycophant!

"Master, accept your disciple's three bows!"

These three bows, she bowed with such sincerity, such unwavering determination.

"Master, please have some tea."

"Master, are you hungry?"

"Does Master need a shoulder massage or leg rub?"

"Master, shall I perform a trick for you?"

She had to properly thank Master Rank One for the Qingping Sword reward!

Although the Qingping Sword was said to be for her self-defense, just having the sword there, who in the Three Realms would dare to easily touch her!

The Qingping Sword's disdainful voice sounded in Tang An's heart, "Let's get this straight, no more spitting!"

"Tsk, rest assured, buddy, we're like this, even if I have spit, I won't spit on you."

The Qingping Sword let out a sigh of relief, finally not having to be dirty anymore.

"If I want to spit, I'll spit on my hand, right?"

Qingping Sword "... *******!!!"

So in the end, it said all that for nothing?

"Ew~" Tang An complained with disgust, "Master, your sword can actually curse."

Tongtian Jiaozhu pointed his index finger at her brow, with a hint of helpless indulgence.

"You seek me out, not just for banter, right?"

Tang An's expression became serious in a second, "Then next, let's talk about fifty cents worth of serious business with Master." ===== CHAPTER 259 =====
