Chapter 4907: Tie Zhu’s Wish

"Only an Immortal can do it? Then… Immortal, what do you mean? I saved my mother, and then Xie Baobao died! You can resurrect her? Is that right?!"

Xiao Xuan stared intently at Ye Miaoyin.

Ye Miaoyin: "…"

"Aside from Xie Baobao, do you know how to talk about anything else?!" Ye Miaoyin said, annoyed.

"Anything else? Like what?!" Xiao Xuan looked bewildered.

"You… you came here to see me, what on earth is the matter?!" Ye Miaoyin sighed.

Her once clever and intelligent son had turned out like this; Ye Miaoyin truly couldn't bear to look.

"I… I came here hoping you could help me! I want to marry Xie Baobao!"

"How do you want me to help you?!" Ye Miaoyin said expressionlessly.

"It's simple! Give me silver! Gold works too! The more, the better! That way, my family will have money! Then I can marry Xie Baobao!" Xiao Xuan said happily.

Ye Miaoyin: "…"

"No ambition!" Ye Miaoyin gritted her teeth and spoke in a low voice: "You only want silver? What about other things? Do you have no other aspirations?!"

"Other things? Could it be… that you can make me a high-ranking official?!" Hearing this, Xiao Xuan's eyes lit up immediately: "Immortal, if that's possible! I want to be a county magistrate!"

Ye Miaoyin: "…"

"Are you satisfied with just being a county magistrate? No other aspirations?!"

"If there's anything else… then I… can I be a prefect?"

"You… besides being an official and getting rich! Do you have no other thoughts?!" Ye Miaoyin sighed.

"Anything else? No, that's it. To live a long life, be healthy, and grow old together with Xie Baobao—that's all there is." Xiao Xuan shook his head.

"You! I… don't you want to become an Immortal like me?" Ye Miaoyin sighed.

As long as Xiao Xuan said he wanted to, Ye Miaoyin would certainly teach him cultivation, and subsequently guide him down a different path.

However, for Xiao Xuan, who was born in a remote mountain village, he had never dared to hope that he could become an Immortal.

Hearing Ye Miaoyin say this, Xiao Xuan was stunned: "Is it possible? Can I also become an Immortal?!"

"If you are willing, you can…" Ye Miaoyin nodded.

"Once I become an Immortal! Can I conjure silver?!"

Ye Miaoyin: "…"

"Forget about silver! Gold works too!" Ye Miaoyin laughed; she was laughing out of frustration at Xiao Xuan.

"Th-this… Immortal, can you take me as your disciple?!" Xiao Xuan asked seriously.

"Take you in? Think carefully, this path is not easy to walk." Ye Miaoyin said with a smile.

"I've thought about it! Even if it's not easy, I still want to walk it!" Xiao Xuan nodded heavily: "I hope the Immortal will accept me! I will definitely work hard!"

"Hehe… if you want to cultivate to become an Immortal, you need to work hard and have unyielding perseverance. Can you do that?" Ye Miaoyin said with a smile.

"I can!" Xiao Xuan nodded heavily.

"Very well, then come to the top of the mountain to see me." Ye Miaoyin smiled.

Hearing this, Xiao Xuan was stunned: "The top of the mountain? Aren't I already at the top of the mountain?!"

Then, as soon as Xiao Xuan finished speaking, the Immortal in front of him vanished, and the scenery around him changed; he was still halfway up the mountain… he was not at the top at all.

"This… this must be the Immortal's test! That's right! I must climb the mountain!" Xiao Xuan suddenly realized, his gaze firm, and he gritted his teeth as he climbed the mountain.

He was very hungry, having not eaten for nearly a day, and had been climbing the whole time; his hands were covered in blood…

However, Xiao Xuan did not give up. As long as he reached the top of the mountain, he could take the Immortal as his master.

And then he would be able to marry Xie Baobao…

Ye Miaoyin looked down, watching Xiao Xuan with his bloodied hands, and sighed.

If she could, Ye Miaoyin wouldn't want it to be this way, but this was a form of tempering.

Xiao Fan had said that besides his Inner Demon Tribulation, Xiao Xuan also needed to have a heart that seeks the Dao…

This child wanted to become stronger, but he hadn't experienced many setbacks, so his heart for seeking the Dao was not firm.

If he encountered setbacks later and became depressed…

With a firm Dao Heart, even if he encountered difficulties later, he would not waver in his convictions.

This was Xiao Fan's intention!

In a flash, one day later…

Xiao Xuan was exhausted, but he still hadn't reached the top of the mountain.

Clearly the top of the mountain was right in front of him, but no matter how he climbed, he could never reach it.

"Why… I am not reconciled! I want to take the Immortal as my master! I also want to become an Immortal!" Xiao Xuan gritted his teeth and continued to climb for his life.

Even the True Emperor Realm Strongman who had been protecting Xiao Xuan from the shadows was moved.

In a flash, another two days passed…

Xiao Xuan had reached his limit, and suddenly, the Immortal's voice appeared in his ears.

"If you can't hold on, then give up…"

"No! I won't give up!" Xiao Xuan gritted his teeth: "I want to become an Immortal! I want to marry Xie Baobao!!"

Ye Miaoyin was very satisfied with the first half of the sentence, but that part about marrying Xie Baobao made Ye Miaoyin grit her teeth in anger.

How could her son be such a love-struck fool…
