The Daily Task of Preventing My Disciple from Turning to the Dark Side

Chapter 58: I'm your adoptive father!

Bai Yi clapped his hands, signaling for the maids to serve this distinguished guest well without any desolation.

Chen Mo went dark again, with an impulse to throw the table.

Mu Chen, however, was confused why Chen Mo hadn't come to visit him for so long a time since they were both at Pill City. But this doubt didn't exist too long before Gu Yunjue attracted all his attention.

"Master, come here and sit down. This disciple is going to push you in this chair around for sightseeing."

"Where did you get this chair?" Mu Chen refused Gu coldly. This evil disciple should become fond of the pushing chair game and flew anywhere with the chair. It just couldn't be more shameful!

Although the chair was quite comfortable and could shift in sizes for either lying or sitting and able to float in the air without extra help, Mu Chen just felt embarrassed to receive so much attention sitting on it.

Nevertheless, Gu Yunjue asserted eloquently the falsehood, his face being so serious that no one could perceive his robbery. "I bought it. A few days before, I bought a catalogue on which listed bunches of good stuff in selling. And they deliver whatever hit customers' fancy. This chair costs many spirit stones!"

Mu Chen suddenly felt regretful giving his disciple too much pocket money. Now that he bought this chair, he might bring more strange things to him later on.

"Master, come and sit down!"

"No!"

"Come on!"

"No!"

"I won't leave you alone to move this chair. Instead, I'll push it for you!"

"I've said no! You are going to defy your master? How dare you!" Mu Chen lifted the foot, kicked little disciple in his shin and tramped on it in succession, quite detesting the idea. But he didn't know that his being like that attracted Gu Yunjue's more desire to tease him. The two were playing delightfully when there came several knocks on the door.

Mu Chen took the chance and gave Gu another kick in his thigh, ordering him solemnly, "Open the door!"

Gu Yunjue had no choice but to put down the chair with much regret.

There at the door stood a middle-aged man with both robe and crown in black, who exhibited quite imposing an aura in his strapping build. He was no stranger to all in Pill City—the City Master, Bo Yuntian.

Mu Chen stood up and looked at the visitor surprisingly. With his identity and age taken into consideration, Master of Pill City should condescend to visit a pill cultivator.

In Mu Chen's memories, he should only have intersection with Pill City in herb transactions decades later in his last life. City Master Bo was exactly a representative of those who were rich but silly. Every time Mu Chen bought herbs from City Master Bo, this man would give Mu a half discount generously and many collateral gifts. Mu Chen certainly didn't know Bo Jinyu in his last life according his disposition. As he wouldn't go around Pill City nor watch the competition among the four sects, he certainly wouldn't meet with this coquettish lantern.

However, the other seemed quite complicated with surprise, nostalgia and incredibility mixing in his eyes, "You should look so alike with that person. Is your mother named Chen Yixin? I'm her sworn brother."

Mu Chen nodded but didn't know what to say. He wanted to stop the conversation of this topic. However, the other hadn't mentioned his father while started from his mother's old friend as well as his elder, so Mu Chen couldn't just evict Bo out but to stand still coldly without saying a word.
