“Dad, one step at a time!” smiled Cheng Xiao Xiao, she looked around the courtyard and said, “We should upgrade our house if dad is going to have disciples . We can’t keep living in this hut, it’s getting a little bit embarrassing . ”
“What’s so embarrassing about it? Nonsense!” smiled Cheng Biyuan . Taking a look at his own house, he sighed, “Yeah, this house is a bit crude . Sorry to have you guys put up with it for so long . ”
“Ye, it’s all in the past . All we need is to re-build another house, then we can live in a nice place!” smiled Mrs . Cheng tenderly .
The little ones all looked happy, their bright eyes full of hope . After all, the hut was not only crude, but also a bit on the small size . It hasn’t been all that comfortable .

Cheng Xiao Xiao thought for a bit and said, “Dad, since Patriarch Liu asked you in person, you will have to accept them no matter what . I say anyone with average talent, you just accept them as your disciples by name; anyone who has exceptional talent, you take them on as formal disciples . After all, we will need disciples sooner or later . This will save us the hassle to recruit from the outside . It might as well be the villagers that we are familiar with . ”
“Xiao Xiao is right, we are quite short handed . Right now we can still handle it on our own, will be tough as time goes on . ”
Cheng Biyuan agreed with his daughter’s suggestion . Thinking about their days in the future, he smile deepened . Then he asked, “Xiao Xiao, Patriarch Liu also said mentioned that the villagers can’t really afford tuition . The best they could do is to send over animals they have hunted in the future . ”

“So they are asking us to support their children?” frowned Mrs . Cheng, looking a little unfriendly, “Not only are we teaching them to cultivate and practice martial arts, we have to take care of their room and board also? This is a bit…”
She was right, Cheng Biyuan didn’t know what to say . He had expected her reaction which was why he chose to discuss this in front of his daughter .
Cheng Xiao Xiao looked at her father and then glanced at her mother . She found it funny that her father was afraid of her mother .
“Mom, we no longer need to worry about food on table and roof over head . Feeding another several dozens won’t be an issue at all!”

“But they are just taking advantage of us!” slipped Mrs . Cheng, letting her true feelings out .
Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but to giggle at her mother being petty . And so did the three young ones . Cheng Biyuan didn’t dare laughing at his own wife, but one could tell from his look that he was trying very hard to hold it in .
“Mom, don’t worry . It won’t be easy to take advantage of us . You see how we are planning to build a new house now? We will have the villagers over to help out, and all we had to do are to provide them with meals but no pay . As for your disciples and students, once they’ve joined us, they will have to listen to us, much like the structure of a large family or a sect . We won’t be taken advantage of, we will only benefit from this!”
“Xiao Xiao is right, don’t sweat over the small stuff . All these are necessary if we want to found our own sect!”
Soon as Cheng Biyuan finished, Mrs . Cheng looked very unhappy, staring at him, she said, “Save it . Xiao Xiao was the reason all these are happening, nothing to do with you!”
“You, you are being unreasonable!” Cheng Biyuan struggled to find his words .
The young ones started laughing all over again . Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t want her parents to keep fighting so she diverted the subject, “Dad, mom, since we are planning to build a house, we should plan it out thoroughly . We should also looked building living quarters for your disciples . As for your students, we will just have them come over in the day time and go home at night . Willow is not that far from us anyway!”
