Hu Tangdi interrupted Xing Tian directly, "In short, stop lamenting. You're not human anymore, and you don't need to study. Besides, the sect leader doesn't know the situation in the human realm. What are you going to say to him? It's too late; the sect leader needs to rest."

Xing Tian smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, sorry, I was just so engrossed in my homework that I got carried away and started talking. Sect Master, please pretend you didn't hear me and go to sleep."

Shang Lin smiled nonchalantly, "It's good to hear what you have to say, after all, I'll be taking exams all the way up in the future."

Xing Tian suddenly put on a serious face, "For a top student, nothing I say matters. The sect leader will be invincible, overcome all obstacles, and reach the pinnacle of life."

"Hehe..." Even Shang Lin, who was usually calm, couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Alright, alright, I appreciate your kind words. You don't need to write anymore, get some rest, we can write together tomorrow and it will be faster."

“No.” Xing Tian refused instantly. “I can definitely finish writing tonight. We’ll start working on the foreign language tomorrow.”

“Alright,” Shang Lin conceded. “Tutoring is indeed an urgent matter.”

Hu Tangdi silently rolled his eyes in his heart. Xing Tian was a sycophant, with a silver tongue. Moreover, he didn't even need to say it. The sect leader would definitely overcome all obstacles and reach the pinnacle of life.

However, Hu Tangdi said nothing and immediately returned to the Dragon Spirit Tower. That ghost was quite capable; it made him sound so easy, but it was anything but. He needed to rest properly.

Shang Lin didn't go to rest immediately. He had sent She Jinxing out to check on Xiaobai's situation. After all, the Divine Lord was now a tower spirit, and his attraction to Xiaobai wasn't as great as that of the little snake. As for Lü Yao and A Chou, which one of them could coax the cub?

These past few days, She Jinxing has been keeping Xiaobai company in his original form. Today, with him gone, Xiaobai inevitably became a bit unruly, even sneaking into Lü Yao's herb garden to steal some spiritual herbs, only to be driven away by Lü Yao's rain of flying knives.

Little White had never seen Green Yao so fierce before, and it was startled again, though not as badly as Shang Lin. But in order to avoid Green Yao's rain of flying knives, it still suffered some minor external injuries.

Of course, if it weren't for the fact that Xiaobai's scales were mottled and many parts of its body were not covered by scales, exposing the fragile flesh underneath, it wouldn't have been injured. After all, Green Yao's flying knife rain wasn't very lethal.

So as soon as Shang Lin entered the Dragon Spirit Tower, he saw Xiao Bai looking dejected, lying next to the Divine Lord and rubbing against his protective unicorn, as if only in this way could he find comfort for his body and mind.

Shang Lin asked the deity with great confusion, "Why is Little White still so listless? Although it is a fragile cub, isn't it a bit too fragile?"

As Shang Lin spoke, he patted Xiao Bai's head, only then noticing a faint smell of blood on its body. At that moment, the Divine Lord said, "Can you not look so listless? You were scared by Lü Yao again."

"So, is the smell of blood because Xiaobai is injured?" Shang Lin hurriedly examined it carefully and indeed saw tiny scratches on Xiaobai's scaleless skin. The bleeding had stopped and a thin film had formed.

Shang Lin immediately frowned, "Green One."

The deity hurriedly said, "It has nothing to do with Lü Yao. This brat went to its herb garden to steal its herbs and was chased away."

"But we can't hurt Xiaobai!" Shang Lin shouted again, "Green One!"

Lü Yao probably knew that she had caused trouble today, and reluctantly rushed in front of Shang Lin.

Shang Lin stretched out his finger and waved it at Lü Yao, "You can't bully your fellow disciples, or there won't be any blood for you to drink in the future."

Green Yao glanced at Shang Lin, then at Little White, and finally paused for a moment with her back to Shang Lin before quickly darting into the herb garden and disappearing without a trace.

Shang Lin, "..."

Why did he feel like he was being disliked by Green One?

The deity then advised Shang Lin, "Green Jade has low intelligence. If you talk to it, it may not understand. Besides, it's still a cub, so you have to coax it."

Shang Lin couldn't help but facepalm. Was their Yuntai Sect some kind of kindergarten?! He was actually the kindergarten principal! He had a bit of a headache.

Hu Tangdi, who was about to rest, saw this situation and hurriedly advised Shang Lin, "I'll comfort Xiaobai for a while. Sect Master, you should go and check on Lüyao. These two cubs are like children fighting. If you don't comfort them, they'll easily have conflicts later."

Shang Lin reluctantly compromised, "Alright, alright, from now on, if I encounter any other kind of person, I'll only accept adults."

The deity immediately laughed and said, "Do you think you can choose for yourself? And can you even do it?"

Shang Lin, "..."

Don't hit someone in the face, and don't speak ill of someone!

Shang Lin resigned himself to his fate and went to the herb garden to find Green Jade. However, the herb garden was now many times larger and lush than before, making it nearly impossible to find a Green Jade the size of a palm.

However, Shang Lin didn't look for it. He directly pricked his fingertip. Before the first drop of blood had even fallen, Green Jade rushed over. However, when it looked at Shang Lin, it didn't dare to hug his finger like a drunkard before.

Shang Lin reached out and scooped Lü Yao up, laughing, "You don't dare come near me now? I just said, you can't bully your fellow disciples, or there won't be any more blood for you to drink, understand?"

Green Yao looked at Shang Lin seriously, seemingly trying to figure out what he meant, but seeing the blood on his fingertips, she couldn't help but pounce on him.

Ah Chou and Xiao Bai were also powerless against Shang Lin's blood and appeared by his side in no time. Ah Chou, however, habitually waited obediently on the side, while Xiao Bai, due to the severe aftereffects of being frightened by Shang Lin before, was too afraid to go forward.

However, the God didn't give Xiaobai a chance to come forward. He chased after it, grabbed it with one hand, and dragged it away. As he walked, he lectured it, "Don't you know how big you are? Shang Lin only needs a little bit of blood from his fingertip to feed Lü Yao and A Chou. He can't even cut his wrist to feed you. You should let him go."

Hu Tangdi looked at Xiaobai with some confusion, then asked the Divine Lord, "Xiaobai isn't the Sect Master's servant, so why is it so attached to the Sect Master's blood..."

The deity hurriedly said, "Children have a herd mentality."

That being said, Hu Tangdi felt something was off. And although Lü Yao and A Chou were the sect leader's servants, weren't they... too greedy for the sect leader's blood?

He, Huang Li, the little snake, and the little scorpion were all servants of the sect leader, but none of them had ever been tainted by the sect leader's blood, nor did they have any intention of drinking it.

Could it be because demonic beasts and demonic plants are different? But Green One is a demonic plant, so what kind of demonic plant is Ah Chou? It's just a spirit, but Hu Tangdi doesn't want to waste his brainpower on it for now, because as long as he lives long enough, everything will eventually come to light.
