There were only benefits and no disadvantages to accepting a disciple, so Lu Changsheng casually had Dantai Meng pay her respects as an apprentice.
"Huh?"
Dantai Meng did not understand what Lu Changsheng was trying to do. She had already become a slave; why did Lu Changsheng want her to become an apprentice as well? What was he thinking? Was he purposely mocking her?
"If you don't obey, I will cast the curse," he warned.
"Wait, I'll do it..." Dantai Meng reluctantly complied and performed the formal bow of discipleship, "Disciple Dantai Meng pays respect to Master."
"Very good, from now on, you are my thirteenth direct disciple."
"If I become a disciple, does that mean I am no longer a slave?" she inquired.
Dantai Meng felt an inexplicable thrill as if she had benefitted from becoming a disciple.
"You wish. You are both my disciple and my slave," he replied.
"Lu Changsheng, you're going too far!"
Dantai Meng felt that Lu Changsheng was toying with her.
