Chapter 936 A Mere Stick Cannot Decide Future!

The idea of turning into a disciple of a random met they just met baffled the two.

Lith expected such a reaction and was ready with his next line. "Don't worry, as I'll be your master, I'll teach you a lot of good things. You'll be learning many new martial arts and various other cultivation techniques from me. I am the one who's at a loss here for accepting you two, but given how you've helped me during a critical time, I'll give this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to you."

Hyunsuk and Shi fell silent. This situation was taking a turn in a direction they couldn't even fathom!

From randomly finding a rock to now having a powerhouse offer to be their master… It was truly fantastical.

Their silence made Lith faintly smile and say, "You don't have to rush and answer me. I'll give you two exactly five minutes to think it through."

What do you don't have to rush? Giving five minutes to decide was exactly rushing the situation! Shi cried out in his heart.

While Shi was worried about things, Hyunsuk calmly looked at Lith and stared at him for a good few seconds.

Lith didn't budge and stared back at Hyunsuk, wondering what this dude was up to.

Hyunsuk then nodded for who knows what reason and squatted down.

There was a twig beside him and using it, he drew a line on the ground.

Beside the line, he wrote a simple "Yes" and "No", then placed the twig right above the line and let it fall freely.

The stick was stationary for a second, but then fell down on the yes section.

Lith, Dennis, and even Shi saw the scene, but did not say anything.

Hyunsuk nodded again and getting up, looked at Lith with his expressionless face. "I'll be your disciple," he said flatly.

"What!?" Shi exclaimed. This easily!?

Idiot you're relying on a damn twig to choose your lifelong fate? Are you okay in the head!? Shi cursed internally.

Lith and Dennis were dumbfounded by this too, but Lith smiled and said, "Come greet your Master then, disciple."

Hyunsuk nodded and walked up to Lith. He kneeled down and touched his forehead to the ground. "Please accept disciple Hyunsuk's greeting, Master."

Lith nodded. "Get up. You're officially my disciple now, Hyunsuk."

Hyunsuk got up and rubbed the mud off his forehead, then looked at Lith.

Lith took out a talisman from his space ring which was in the form of a cloth. He rubbed it and turned it into a string, then wrapped Hyunsuk's wrist with it, turning it into a bracelet.

"This talisman has my aura to it, being a proof that you're my disciple from here on. It'll transfer you to a safe place when you're on the verge of death." Lith gave a short introduction.

Hyunsuk bowed and clasped his hands. "Thank you, Master."

The expression on his face barely changed but his words appeared sincere.

This made Lith wonder, 'Is this dude a kuudere or what?'

Looking at Hyunsuk be swayed so easily, Shi gritted his teeth. This fellow… Just what was he up to?

He decided his life's fate just from a simple twig, how stupid!

Do you think that a twig is accurate? It could literally change direction with the blow of a wind, what would you do then?

Shi was really annoyed for some reason and disliked Hyunsuk for doing things so leisurely.

He racked his brain hard on what to do in this situation, but no answer came up.

The only thing Shi was good at was surviving. His brain only knew things related to survival and hence, when he was actually given a good offer and not put in a life or death situation, his brain refused to cooperate.

Shi was still gritting his teeth and wondering what he should do. Eventually, his hate for Hyunsuk rose up due to watching him make a decision due to a twig.

Thinking it was really silly and that he shouldn't have done that, Shi went to get an answer from the twig himself.

He wanted to prove to Hyunsuk that he shouldn't play with fate like that.

There was a fifty-fifty chance of the twig falling on the no section. If that would've happened, would he have simply gone about his ways in this dense jungle?

Shi wanted to prove how dangerous this process was and wanted to show that Hyunsuk should not take help from such a thing.

It was momentarily luck that gave him a yes in the first try. If that wouldn't have happened, he really would've gone away and gotten himself killed.

Shi squatted down at the Yes and No's area. He looked at Hyunsuk, then knitted his brows.

Hyunsuk stared back at him and at this point, Shi conveyed from his annoyed face: 'that's right, look at this, idiot. This is going to fall at the No section.'

Thinking so, Shi placed the twig on the dividing line, then let it fall freely.

The twig paused in mid air for a second, then eventually…

It fell on the Yes section, dumbfounding Shi.

Lith and Dennis were surprised by this too while Hyunsuk stayed unfazed as always.

'Wait… It's merely a coincidence,' thinking so, Shi placed the twig again on the divider and let it fall freely.

This time, it fell on the Yes section once again, shocking Shi.

'No, that's not possible! How can it always fall in the Yes section? There is only a 50% possibility!'

Thinking so, he once again placed the twig on the divider. This time, he decided to cheat a little and gently pushed the twig to the No section's side.

The twig leaned at the No section while pausing in mid air, then due to a sudden gust of wind, fell on the Yes section again.

'What the—' Shi was stupefied! Was the heavens playing a big joke with him right now or what?

Thinking this was an unacceptable situation, he repeated the process, but the twig fell on the Yes side again.

"Ahhh!" Shi was seriously annoyed and broke the dam twig, then threw it away.

A mere twig cannot decide his future! He would do better—'wait a second…'

Shi suddenly had a flash of inspiration. At all times, he was asking the wrong question. Maybe he should change things a bit and see the result.

Getting riled up, Shi immediately went to pick up another twig and then did the experiment again. This time, he thought, 'I'll be running away from this man wanting to be my master. It's a good decision, right?'

He let the twig fall freely and eventually…

No.

"…"

'I won't run away and join him. Good decision?'

Yes.

"…"

'Hyunsuk did a bad job joining, right?'

No.

"Whaaaaaat—" Shi lost his mind and screamed.

Lith, Dennis, and Hyunsuk had no idea what happened and were dumbfounded to see Shi do that weird thing.

What was going on in Shi's mind was not something they could read. All they saw was him letting the twig fall repeatedly, then start screaming like a maniac.

Lith did not say anything to the shouting Shi and stared at him till the time limit of five minutes was over.

Exactly about five minutes later, Shi breathed heavily and calmed down.

'Okay… This last thing… This last thing… I'll do a coin flip, if its heads, I'll join—no wait, heads is too common. If its tails, I'll join him. Yes, that's right…'

Thinking so, Shi took out a coin from his pocket and tossed it.

The coin fell down and Shi's heart began beating frantically. He did not want to look at it and closed his eyes, but his legs moved towards the coin subconsciously to see the result.

Shi sneakily opened one of his eyes to look at the coin, as if it would change the result and what he saw was—tails.

Shi shut his eye and took a deep breath. 'Okay… This is not what it seems…'

He took deep breaths and mustered up courage to look at the coin again, then…

"Alright, stick close, we are heading towards a cave." Lith said softly.

Behind, three figures followed him.

Hyunsuk was expressionless as ever while Dennis had a calm look on his face and carried an unconscious person on his shoulder like a sack of potatoes.

This fainted dude was exactly Shi. He had dried up tears on his face and even unconsciously was frowning hard.

The other noticeable change on this dude were his dangling hands, one of which had a bracelet similar to Hyunsuk.

Lith was deep within the devil territories by now and with the help of the map, entered the region with the highest number of caves.

There was a cave every few hundred metres and Lith knew walking inside each one wasn't feasible.

Thankfully, he had seen what Hyunsuk was capable of doing and decided to take his help.

Lith guessed that divinity was a natural thing for a Charm like him and although he did not know the same thing about Jinxes, Shi seemed to have a similar outcome as Hyunsuk.

Though, since he was unconscious, he would make do with Hyunsuk's prowess.

Lith turned to look at Hyunsuk and said, "Hyunsuk, come here and help."

Hyunsuk nodded and walked up to Lith.

Lith gave him a slender stick and told him, "Think about a human girl with short brown hair and height a tad bit shorter than Shi, then drop the stick."

Hyunsuk nodded and began picturing such a girl.

He then dropped the stick and it fell in a certain direction.

Lith nodded and said, "Let's walk in this direction."

With that, the master-disciples and Dennis began journeying to find Miwa.
