Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 755 - 390: Li’s Neglect, Zhang’s Fault

Before tutoring others, everyone is confident, and Zhang Ze is no exception.

In Zhang Ze's view, Lily, as a person made of flesh and blood, cannot simply be categorized under the Star God's classification.

The old thing couldn't teach properly because it didn't understand what Lily was.

So, to teach Lily, one must go through a process of adapting and transitioning one's thinking, focusing on a human-centric approach, just like Zhang Ze.

However, it wasn't until Zhang Ze took action personally that he realized he might have overthought it.

Some people just can't be taught.

"Sit still, take a deep breath, pay attention to the rhythm of inhaling and exhaling, use the method I just taught you to focus your energy..." Zhang Ze crouched beside Lily and instructed.

"I'm feeling it!" Lily said with a booming voice while sitting cross-legged.

"Good, keep going." Zhang Ze squatted on the side, exerting effort, "Sense that energy and guide it towards the Dantian."

Lily said, "Yes, guiding it, guiding it, still guiding it."

This guidance took quite a long time...

"Where did it get to?" Zhang Ze asked softly.

"It's almost in but not quite, oh wait, it seems to have branched off, and now my back feels itch, what should I do, boss?" Lily asked casually.

Zhang Ze, "?"

Some things are called a branch, written as a Qi Vein misalignment...

However, before Zhang Ze could intervene, a flash of inspiration flew in, sealed Lily's pulse gate, and pushed that branching Spiritual Qi back.

The one who intervened was Zhang Ze's mentor, Li Guanqi.

He had been sitting on the side from the very beginning, watching Zhang Ze teach.

Though called guardian guidance, what he did was truly providing protection for Lily.

But Zhang Ze always felt that his mentor was just watching a show, enjoying the spectacle.

It couldn't be helped, as the half-finished bag of sunflower seeds his mentor had been munching on didn't inspire much confidence.

"Master, please help." Acknowledging his weakness, Zhang Ze turned to his mentor for help.

However, Li merely smiled slightly and sipped his tea, "How could I teach you disciples? You do it yourself."

"How can you say that, didn't Fuji and I both learn from you? You taught us so well," Zhang Ze said, feeling wronged.

"Ha, you kid are truly flattering your master, I really didn't teach you much; you two are just too easy, easier than the fortune tree on my balcony.

"It still needs occasional watering and loosening of the soil, but you two just need to be planted in the ground, and your cultivation grows by itself."

Looking at his mentor, Zhang Ze always felt he was being sarcastic, but he had no proof.

Seeing Zhang Ze's bitter gourd face, Li put down his teacup and advised, "When nurturing, you must teach according to one's ability. Think about what Lily is good at?"

Zhang Ze scratched his face and looked at Lily, who was sitting cross-legged with her head tilted.

"Old man, what kind of look is that? I can do anything, okay? I'm a jack of all trades." Lily said, oblivious.

Although Lily was boastful, reminded by his mentor, Zhang Ze did think of a method.

Zhang Ze flipped his hand and revealed his Sword Sect Golden Core.

The Golden Core in Zhang Ze's hand began to change colors.

"Lily, watch closely, treat this Golden Core of mine as a Magical Artifact, use your eyes to see and your heart to feel it."

Zhang Ze placed the Golden Core in Lily's hand, while also touching it with his finger, using the Star God Technique to control the Golden Core's glow.

Lily looked at Zhang Ze's Golden Core with wide eyes.

After Zhang Ze repeatedly demonstrated the method, on the third attempt, Lily suddenly exclaimed.

"I got it."

With that, Lily gestured for Zhang Ze to let go, then she held Zhang Ze's Golden Core and closed her eyes.

To be honest, this was the first time Zhang Ze experienced someone playing with his Golden Core.

The feeling was really strange, but fortunately, this time Lily didn't branch off. As the Spiritual Qi around her rose, the golden light covering her body slowly dissipated.

Under Lily's precise control, it even formed golden characters circling above her head.

[I'm amazing, Lily!]

"Undefeated, I'm indeed smart, I learn this little method in no time." Lily grinned.

However, that grin didn't last long. When Zhang Ze saw that everything was done, and he used a hand seal to retrieve his Golden Core, Lily started to glow again.

Even brighter than before.

Zhang Ze, "..."

He suddenly had a bad premonition, raised his hand, and snapped his fingers, bringing out his Golden Core again.

As the Golden Core fell into Lily's hands, the golden light around her abruptly went out.

Zhang Ze, "..."

Lily, "..."

Zhang Ze tried several times repeatedly and found that his Golden Core in front of this weird lily-like light bulb seemed to turn into some kind of resistor.

Not knowing how Lily understood it, but she had to hold Zhang Ze's Golden Core to operate the method and stop herself from glowing.

"Boss, how much to rent this Golden Core for a day?" Lily asked.

"This isn't a toy, it's not for loan, and even if I lend it to you, I can't lend it for a lifetime." Zhang Ze took back his Golden Core and turned to his mentor.

Zhang Ze knew that his mentor had a bit of a hoarding problem and liked to carry all his belongings with him, which contained treasures he had collected over the years through explorations in his Storage Ring.

Li understood, waved his hand, and a white light shone from his fingertip Storage Ring, instantly revealing various golden pearls and Pill Jades before Zhang Ze and Lily.

Demon Beast Inner Core, Sea Golden Pearls, Exquisite Celestial Treasures, all were present.

"Try them, see if they can substitute." Li said.

Lily respectfully thanked Li before stepping forward to try each of these Pill Pearls one by one, but none of them worked.

Lily eagerly looked at Zhang Ze again.

"Boss, lend it to me for two days, and I'll return it in a few days..."
