1234 He’s the Peerless Martial G.o.d? (2)
Nameless turned around and saw Zhang Yukun climbing back to the mountain peak.
Zhang Yukun was in a sorry state, covered in dust and gra.s.s.
It seemed that he had suffered a lot after being sent flying by Cao Chenyang’s aura.
“Why did you come up again? How’s the situation down there?” Nameless asked casually.
“A few martial artists died, but most of them were only injured,” Zhang Yukun said. “Brother Nameless, I was worried that you would be in danger, so I came up to take a look.”
“Aren’t you afraid of death?” Nameless asked.
“Yes, of course I’m afraid,” Zhang Yukun said seriously. “But Brother Nameless, you’ve done me a great favor. I can’t be disloyal.
“Brother Nameless, where’s that person just now?”
Zhang Yukun looked around warily.
Only Nameless was left on the peak. The other ferocious person had already disappeared.
Zhang Yukun let out a long sigh of relief. “Brother Nameless, you chased him away?”
“Chased him away?” Nameless shook his head. “I might not be his match.”
“Brother Nameless, you…” Zhang Yukun was not stupid and immediately understood what Nameless meant.
He might not be his match. In other words, he might be his match.
This person had sent all thousand-plus martial artists on the peak of Mount Hua flying with a shout. With such strength, he was probably an expert among Grotto-Heaven realm almighties.
Brother Nameless is indeed a Grotto-Heaven Realm almighty!
Zhang Yukun was a little nervous. He was already a little awkward when he called Nameless.
How could he be qualifications to call a Grotto-Heaven realm almighty brother?
“Is there anything else?” Nameless said indifferently.
“Um, did you help me in secret earlier?” Zhang Yukun hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth. “Brother Nameless, why did you help me? Is there anything I can help you with?”
Although he felt that it was impossible for him to help a Grotto-Heaven Realm almighty, he knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch.
He, Zhang Yukun, was long past the age of dreaming.
If something went wrong, there had to be something strange. Zhang Yukun was worried now. If Brother Nameless asked him to do something against his conscience, should he do it or not?
Zhang Yukun looked conflicted.
Nameless glanced at him and said calmly, “Help you? You’ve misunderstood. I’m not helping you. I’m just using you to fight the Peerless Martial G.o.d.
“After all, with our strength, it’s a little inconvenient to fight directly. You just happened to be here. If it wasn’t you, it would have been someone else. I had no intention of helping you, so you don’t have to feel like you owe me a favor.”
His tone disappointed Zhang Yukun slightly.
It was a little uncomfortable to be used, but it didn’t feel good to be ignored.
Zhang Yukun suddenly reacted and exclaimed, “That person just now was the Peerless Martial G.o.d? Then, Brother Nameless, you are… the unknown martial artist?”
‘Unknown martial artist’ was Nameless’s name on the Myriad Worlds Communication Token.
Just like Cao Chenyang’s Peerless Martial G.o.d, it was an alias.
“Don’t tell anyone,” Nameless said calmly. “I don’t mind letting others find out who I am, but I’m afraid the Peerless Martial G.o.d doesn’t want anyone to know his ident.i.ty.”
“I understand.” Zhang Yukun nodded vigorously. He looked at Nameless with a fanatical gaze.
Nameless was the unknown martial artist who had taught them the G.o.d of War Catalog.
In a sense, he was his master.
Ever since the day he learned the G.o.d of War Catalog, Zhang Yukun had already treated the unknown martial artist as his master.
He had always wondered if he could cultivate the G.o.d of War Catalog to greater mastery one day, would he be qualified to meet the unknown martial artist and kowtow to him a few times?
He didn’t expect his dream to come true so quickly.
He met the unknown martial artist now.
Plop—
Zhang Yukun suddenly knelt on the ground.
Nameless was shocked. He instantly moved several meters away and frowned. “What are you doing?”
“Brother Nameless… No, Master, please accept my bow!” Zhang Yukun shouted.
“I’m not your Master, and you’re not my disciple,” Nameless said coldly.
“Master, since I cultivate the G.o.d of War Catalog, you’re my master,” Zhang Yukun said seriously.
“There are many people who cultivate the G.o.d of War Catalog. Are they all my disciples?” Nameless snorted. “I placed the G.o.d of War Catalog on the Myriad Worlds Communication Token. Anyone can learn it. It doesn’t mean I’m your master.
“You have nothing to do with me.”
The Myriad Worlds Communication Token was Zhou Shu’s tool to change this world.
Just like the Internet in his previous life, anyone could learn the knowledge on it, and there was no need to acknowledge him as their master.
Cao Chenyang placed the Martial G.o.d Catalog on the Myriad Worlds Communication Token and similarly didn’t acknowledge that the people who cultivated the Martial G.o.d Catalog were his disciples.
For people like them, accepting disciples was a very serious matter. How could they casually accept so many people as disciples?
“No, I—” Zhang Yukun wanted to explain. He only wanted to express his grat.i.tude and had no other intentions.
“Zhang Yukun, listen carefully. The G.o.d of War Catalog is the G.o.d of War Catalog. My disciple is my disciple. These are two unrelated matters,” Nameless said coldly. “You are not qualified to be my disciple.”
“I’m not qualified?” Zhang Yukun was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
That’s right. Since Brother Nameless could place the G.o.d of War Catalog on the Myriad Worlds Communication Token, it meant that this G.o.d of War Catalog was nothing to him.
There are probably countless people who want to become his disciple.
What right do I, Zhang Yukun, have?
In terms of apt.i.tude, I’m just ordinary. In terms of cultivation, a first-rank martial artist is not worth mentioning compared to Grotto-Heaven realm almighties.
In terms of background, what kind of background does my Zhang family have? My grandfather was just a workshop superintendent of Great Xia’s Forging Division. My father is even inferior to my grandfather. Although I have a first-rank cultivation and can be considered a n.o.ble in Great Xia…
But to Grotto-Heaven realm almighties, none of this is worth mentioning.
If I were Senior Nameless, I wouldn’t accept such a disciple.
Zhang Yukun didn’t stand up. Instead, he said seriously, “I don’t have any hopes of becoming Senior’s disciple. It’s just that I’ve cultivated your G.o.d of War Catalog. Although I’m not qualified to call you my master, in my heart, you will always be my master.
“I know that I might not be able to help you in any way, Senior, but I have received a huge favor from you. As long as you have any instructions, I, Zhang Yukun, will definitely not refuse even if I have to go through mountains of blades and seas of fire.”
Nameless looked at Zhang Yukun. The descendant of this old friend was the same as Zhang Yibei back then. It wasn’t that he wasn’t willing to support him, but some things couldn’t be forced.
Back then, when Zhang Yibei followed Zhou Shu, Zhou Shu didn’t hold back in sharing any knowledge with him. But Zhang Yibei didn’t become a forger in the end.
There was no reason for apt.i.tude.
Even Zhou Shu couldn’t do anything back then.
It was the same for Zhang Yukun.
Zhang Yukun’s Martial Dao apt.i.tude was average. If not for the Breakthrough Pill, he might not have been able to break through to the first rank of the Martial Dao in his entire life.
Now, being a first-rank expert might be his limit. It was almost impossible for him to improve further.
If he really wanted to forcefully raise his cultivation to the Earth Immortal realm, it wasn’t impossible for Nameless, or rather, Zhou Shu, to do so.
But there was no point in doing it. Zhou Shu could help him once, but it was impossible for him to help him for the rest of his life. In the end, he still had to rely on himself.
Sometimes, forcefully increasing a person’s strength might not be a good thing.
But when one falls in disgrace, the whole family is doomed.
When the enemy from beyond the heavens arrived, how could Zhang Yukun stay out of it?
Nameless was silent for a moment before saying, “Zhang Yukun, I’ll give you a chance.
“In three years, if you can break through to the Earth Immortal realm through your own efforts, I’ll accept you as my disciple!”
“Huh?!” Zhang Yukun was stunned. “Break through to the Earth Immortal realm in three years?”
He gritted his teeth and kowtowed a few times. “I will definitely work hard! Three years later, if I can become an Earth Immortal, I will come to you for your guidance!”
With that, he got up and turned to leave without hesitation.
