Chapter 215 A Firm Heart
The air is thin and cold at high altitudes, but this doesn't happen instantly; it takes time.

Li Xuan formed the Eastern Peak Thunder and Lightning Seal with his right hand, gathering boundless magical power in his palm. He pointed his index finger forcefully towards the clouds and chanted: "Heavenly thunder rumbles, divine thunder roars. Dragon thunder roars, water thunder churns. Earthly command thunder and fire, lightning crisscrosses. Divine might is unleashed, annihilating evil spirits. The Supreme Deity commands, hastily as the law commands!"

A dull ache throbbed in my lower abdomen; the extreme overextraction left my body feeling empty...

A bolt of lightning streaked through the dark clouds, its target the plane's engine. Li Xuan gave a low shout and beckoned with his index and middle fingers toward himself: "Come on!"

The lightning bolt veered in the air and struck his hand, instantly causing all the windows of the side of the plane to burst into a dazzling white light!

The light fades away...

The thunderstorm in the dark clouds slowly dissipated...

The plane gradually regained power and, with the captain's extensive experience, gradually returned to normal. The flight attendants immediately announced over the loudspeaker that the plane had returned to normal operation.

Surviving a disaster is the greatest happiness in life.

Passengers wept with joy, and many cheered!

Give me the blanket.

Li Xuan's voice rang out softly.

Ethan turned his head and his heart clenched. Li Xuan's right hand, which had "passed" out of the window, had been pulled back. However, the hand looked as if it had been scorched by fire, with the skin charred black and even flakes falling off.

His mouth was dry, and the excited looks of the surrounding passengers contrasted sharply with Li Xuan's calm expression.

Ethan had just witnessed lightning strike Li Xuan's hand. Immediately afterward, everything went white and stinging, and he couldn't see anything. When he came to his senses, the plane was safe.

"Your hand... I'll call the flight attendant over."

"Need not."

Li Xuan refused Ethan's offer, took the blanket and covered himself with it to hide his charred hand.

He drew the lightning that was supposed to strike the plane into his hand, attempting to obliterate it with his boundless magic, but unfortunately, its immense power caused it to explode.

My right hand is in indescribable pain right now.

The spiritual energy from the purplish-red gourd slowly flowed onto my hand, causing both pain and itching. This was the healing process of the wound. With the blessing of the spiritual energy, I believe my hand will be back to normal by the time I get off the plane.

Ethan looked at the nonchalant Li Xuan, wanting to speak but afraid of offending him with his words, and the two fell silent.

He felt that this might be his opportunity. In movies from the 1980s and 90s, there were often people like him who admired kung fu who went to China to find a school, learn a move or two, and then return to their hometowns to start their own school.

There are quite a few kung fu schools in the United States now, and you can even see black monks and blond-haired, blue-eyed Taoist priests wielding knives, spears, and sticks with impressive skill.

If he's sincere, Ethan might just become the next "master" to open a school in New York. He's even thought of a name for it: "Authentic XX".

Ethan hesitated for a moment, then mustered his courage and said, "Immortal, could you take me as your disciple? I have loved the ancient culture of China since I was a child. I know a little about both martial arts and immortal arts, and I have read quite a few novels."

I know I'm a bit old, but my heart is absolutely sincere! I'm willing to do anything if you're willing to take me in!

Apprentice?

Just as Li Xuan was about to close his eyes for a while, he opened them again and said, "I don't accept disciples."

Just kidding. Look at the senior disciples of Maoshan, Shi Jian and Lin Fengjiao, such powerful figures, yet they were still completely controlled by their disciples. It's best to stay away from disciples.

Do you really think that everyone on the street is like Master Qianhe, who can easily have four good disciples in all directions, or like Master Simu, who respects his teacher as much as Jiale?
Most importantly, the Black Law is a law that punishes the entire lineage if one person makes a mistake.

The founder of Luofu Mountain in the world of dual pupils was arranged clearly. Even Lu Jiangong asked a few questions in front of the altar, but he could not escape being beaten with sticks in Iron Enclosure Mountain for two hundred years.

Li Xuan said, "I'm just an ordinary person. I can barely protect myself, let alone take on an apprentice. I won't accept one!"

Ethan was immediately somewhat frustrated.

Sure enough, becoming an apprentice wasn't easy, but... his mind quickly returned to normal. In the movies, which apprenticeship wasn't fraught with hardship? Tests of willpower, moral character, endurance, and perseverance!

Ok……

Ethan's gaze hardened, and he said, "Is the Immortal going to New York? My home is in New York, and I know a thing or two about everything. I can save you a lot of precious time."

Li Xuan said, "No need."

He closed his eyes and then stopped talking...

Seeing this, Ethan dared not disturb his rest any longer.

The journey was uneventful.

Finally, the plane arrived at Johns Hopkins Airport in the United States. Due to the time difference, it was daytime here.

Ethan wanted to help Li Xuan with his luggage, but was embarrassed to find that Li Xuan had all his documents on his person and no luggage at all. But then he thought about it and realized that it made sense. How could a celestial being be so inconvenient? He must have hidden it in his sleeve. Zhen Yuanzi in Journey to the West could even put Sun Wukong inside him.

Li Xuan walked out of the airport exit.

Ethan followed closely behind, carrying a bag and pulling a suitcase, like a lackey.

At the exit fence, a woman with two little girls was looking around. When they saw Ethan, they were overjoyed. The woman hugged Ethan tightly and said, "Welcome back! I was away on business in China for two and a half years, and I almost forgot what you looked like... Did you have a good trip?"

Ethan recalled what had happened on the plane, decided not to talk about it, and laughed, "There was a bit of a commotion, but it's alright."

He planned to introduce Li Xuan to his wife and daughter.

Turning around, I saw that Li Xuan had already walked in another direction from the exit.

Ethan was shocked and hurriedly said, "Sophia, keep an eye on the luggage for me. Your husband has met someone extraordinary this time. We must not miss this opportunity."

Sofia was confused, but she supported Ethan's actions.

After all, when they got together, she was attracted to Ethan's "do what you want" attitude—he was direct and decisive!
Li Xuan stood at the corner of the stairs and dialed Higa Kotoko's cell phone. He had already spoken to her on the phone before he left, and she would pick him up at the John Airport exit when he arrived.

A cell phone rang not far away.

Follow the sound and look.

A woman dressed in a smart, modified navy blue suit stood at another exit. Her long, neatly combed hair cascaded over her shoulders like a waterfall. She wore sunglasses and exuded an aura that kept strangers at bay, like a blade warrior, making it hard not to attract the attention of those around her.

She also saw Li Xuan, smiled slightly, and walked over quickly.

Li Xuan said, "We can begin this operation now."

Kotoko Higa has always been a woman of action, decisive and efficient. She never expected to encounter someone as direct as Li Xuan. He should have at least settled into his accommodation after getting off the plane, but instead he immediately asked for an exorcism.

She held a black bag in her left hand and handed it to Li Xuan, saying, "This contains information collected by local New York exorcists. It's not much, but it can be used as a reference."

Li Xuan hummed in agreement.

Kotoko Higa pointed to a black sedan not far away: "I've arranged a hotel for you, why don't we go there to discuss this?"

"Alright."

"Thank you."

The two continued their conversation as directly as ever, as if they were robots exchanging information.

Ethan caught up and whispered, "Sir... I would like to serve you for a while, at least in New York. Please let me fulfill my little wish."
