"Did you hear the conversation I just had with Elder Wu?" The Observatory Master looked at Zhang Chen.
Zhang Chen hesitated for a moment but eventually nodded.
"You should stay at the Daoist Temple from now on." The Observatory Master stared at Zhang Chen, countless thoughts flashing through his mind: "Our Huangli Temple won't let you starve. If you can learn some skills to rely on here, in the future, when the world falls into chaos, you won't starve to death."
At this point, the Observatory Master looked at Zhang Chen, his voice gentle, "Are you willing to?"
"I am willing. I am willing to take you as my mentor; please accept me as your disciple." Zhang Chen was quick to respond, sensing that the Observatory Master did not seem like a bad person, promptly offering a respectful bow.
The Observatory Master shook his head at these words, "From now on, you will practice alongside Chengyu."
