Chapter 1047 The Talented Cultivator
“You’re out of your mind, Maurice! How could you ask her to teach you?” Kolton
exclaimed.
Maurice looked at him in confusion. “I’m not. Remember how I told you Mr. Stavius
once encountered a genius in dispelling formations? Well, that genius was Ms.
Quinnell!
“Ever since that day, Mr. Stavius has been dreaming of taking her as his apprentice
and even persuaded her to join Mt. Dragon. However, Ms. Quinnell declined as she has no interest in spiritual practices.
“You have no idea how amazing she is, Kolton. While we might be gifted, Ms.
Quinnell herself is favored by the heavens!
“If she trains harder, she could even catch a glimpse behind the secrets of divination.
Mr. Stavius has explained that such talent is innate, revealed by her horoscopes.
We’re all envious of her!”
Kolton felt his head hurting as he listened to Maurice’s rambles.
Upon recalling Wynter’s earlier question, he realized he had made a fool of himself.
Clenching his teeth, Kolton was about to inquire further when the Quinnells‘ relatives
beat him to it.
Gathering around Maurice, the relatives nervously asked, “Excuse me, sir. Are you implying that Sevie is skilled in divination and fortune–telling?”
“More than that. She’s a master in both. I’ve always wanted to learn from her,”
Maurice replied honestly.
“And were you saying that she declined Mr. Stavius‘ offer?” The relatives were
completely stupefied.
That morning, all of them had disregarded Wynter as a brash country bumpkin relying on Fabian’s authority. And yet, she turned out to be a skilled medium who had rejected an offer from Mt. Dragon!
While the relatives stood dumbfounded by the revelation, Shane was drowned in Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

regrets.
“An innate talent revealed by her horoscopes… A child favored by the heavens…” Shane murmured in agony. Being superstitious all his life, he understood the implication behind those words.
In contrast, Kaspar was visibly confused by their reactions. “If you have any questions, just ask me instead. I met Wynter at the hotel, and I do intend to take her on as an apprentice. After all, it’ll be a waste of her talent!”
Willing to lose a talented cultivator, Kaspar turned to Wynter and asked, “Have you changed your mind? If you agree to join us, I’ll grant you some privileges.
“For instance, you can perform spiritual practices in your own house. If that’s not enough, you can become my mentor’s apprentice instead.”
Everyone could hardly believe their ears. Kaspar was known for rarely accepting visitors, despite numerous appeals from the wealthy and powerful. Only a certain. someone from the Yarwood family could convince him to appear.
Yet, his attitude toward Wynter was entirely unexpected from his usual demeanor.
“You can’t just pass an apprentice to Mr. Osborn, sir!” Kolton anxiously argued.
Kaspar merely glanced at him and refuted, “Why not? This girl here is a rare talent–a genius cultivator seen only once in a thousand years.
“To have such a person as an apprentice is an honor. I’m sure Mr. Osborn would be chuckling gleefully in the afterlife if he knew.”
“Did you hear that? Mr. Stavius claimed that Sevie is a rare talent! Does this mean she’s more powerful than Mr. Pennington?” one of the relatives exclaimed.
“I’m not so sure. We’ve never seen her perform any rituals or anything like that.” Someone couldn’t help but doubt it.
“It’s probably true. After all, Mr. Stavius said so himself. The Quinnells are so lucky! I heard that Mt. Dragon has good eyes for those gifted in spiritual practices,” another
chimed in.
Someone snickered. “Shane must be hysterical right now. He always believed his daughter to be a jinx, yet she turns out to be a top–tier medium!”
