Wan Junru and Ru Dandan were in such a deep state that they didn't know their order, but Ah Zhu did choose the latter first. Ah Zhu's strength could have been used at the same time, but this was the first time she faced the disciple's question, so Ah Zhu was prepared to be serious. Her little brain was not as fast as Xia Xiao's.

I saw that the two women were already wrapped in the starry sky, but in the starry sky cocoon on the left, Ru Dandan was still speaking.

"Master Zhushen, I am Ru Dandan, and I come from the largest family under the Zhuang clan. Since I was a child, my talent has been known to be the strongest in the family, and I am respected by everyone in the family. They said that my talent has mutated, and they were reluctant to pass it on to anyone, so I have stayed at home all these years..."

"What is she talking about?"

Xia Xiao asked Ah Zhu, who made a shushing gesture and replied:

"This is her deepest doubt, and she won't hide it at all."

Xia Xiao nodded, seeming to understand, but this Ru Dandan talked too much, and too many of her words were irrelevant, but Ah Zhu listened with great interest.

"Since I started practicing, I have been using the best skills, which my family spent a huge amount of money to ask Zhuang Zong to get from the Heavenly Palace. I heard from the elders in the clan that I was going to go directly to the Heavenly Palace, but after the establishment of the Desolate Palace, it was also a great opportunity, so the clan leader sent me here, hoping that I would get more attention. My training speed has always been very fast, and I have always been good at using metals. I think the palace master must know this, so he assigned me to the Gold Hall."

"During the time since I joined the Wilderness Palace, I have always wanted to improve my ability to manipulate metals, but I have never succeeded because no one has taught me. I would like to visit Elder Zhang Jinchui, but before that, I would like to ask Lord Zhushen whether I need to change the focus of my practice? In fact, this is what I want to ask."

"I learned from the hall master that the people and beasts in the Great Wilderness can only control one of the five elements, and only a few can use multiple elements. But Xishu is different, so everyone is practicing in a decentralized manner, and I am the only one who knows nothing except the gold element. So I have been very conflicted. Before I left, the clan leader also warned me to learn a few more source energies to avoid losses in the future."

"But I am subconsciously resistant. I have no interest in other source energies, and I don't want to learn the spiritual formation even if it is in front of me. This matter has been bothering me, and my friends and elders have different opinions, so I hope to get the guidance of Lord Zhushen. I believe that Lord Zhushen's opinion will definitely not be wrong!"

After talking for a long time, Ru Dandan finally finished her words, but Ah Zhu still looked at Xia Xiao stupidly and asked:

"Our mission is only to solve puzzles?"

"Isn't that enough? Your decision may affect her life. It's very important."

“But I don’t think it’s difficult!”

Ah Zhu asked Xia Xiao to watch and immediately began her performance. When she activated the power of the gods, she could see his heart at a glance, and knew his talent, and knew everything he wanted to know. Then, Ah Zhu was ready to answer, but Xia Xiao was a little worried. Generally speaking, decisions should be made by oneself, because if Ah Zhu made a decision that Ru Dandan shouldn't make, she might be blamed in the future.

But he didn't say anything, because he believed in Ah Zhu's strength. Ah Zhu would not let him down, not now, and not in the future.

"In fact, you already have the answer in your heart, right? You just want someone to make the decision for you to persevere, so you ask around, but no matter what their answers are, you are not satisfied. You are very conflicted. You have the answer but dare not do it. But I can't blame you. No one dares to point out the way for you because they are afraid of your talent. If they are wrong, it will delay your life. I can tell you clearly now that you can't only practice the metal element."

Xia Xiao looked at Ah Zhu and was a little surprised, because Ah Zhu's tone now was that of a true god, totally different from the Ah Zhu he knew. This time, Xia Xiao suddenly felt that Ah Zhu was a little strange. When did she become so eloquent? Xia Xiao was a little puzzled, but what really shocked him was still to come.

"The characteristic of gold is stability. It is the movement mode of the source energy contracting inward. It is very strong and can control metals and easily create metals. But you already know that relying on just one power is not enough. If you don't know how to use other source energies at all, you will suffer sooner or later. But what I want to say is not to practice all the source energies, but to play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses. You still need to practice gold, but you also need to learn other source energies, so that you can improve your strength to the highest degree. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand. Thank you, Master Candle God."

After Ru Dandan said this, Azhu immediately looked at Xia Xiao with a smile on his face.

"Well, not bad, eh?"

"It's not just good, it's amazing!"

"You asked me to be serious, so I will be serious. But she is so weird. With such a good opportunity, she only asked such a simple question."

"Without your approval, how could she willingly give up the gold element and start practicing other things? So it's not simple, but you know how to handle it, so letting her make the decision is the safest."

"That's true."

Ah Zhu smiled, looked at Ru Dandan and asked her to speak. Compared with Ru Dandan's clear voice, Wan Junru's voice seemed a little low, and the questions she asked were stranger than Ru Dandan's. The latter at least wanted Ah Zhu to give advice and decisions, but she was just asking a trivial matter.

"My name is Wan Junru. I am from Yibin, Zhuangzong. My family is very ordinary and I don't have the talent of those around me. But since I knew I could practice, I have been working on it day and night and never wasting time. I know that only by practicing and becoming stronger can I change my destiny, but I always feel that I have poor talent and that others are laughing at me."

"After joining the Wilderness Palace, the people around me are all famous figures. Without people like me, I am nothing and have no background at all. So I want to know whether my talent can support me to a higher level. I hope that Lord Zhushen can give me guidance and give me an accurate answer."

As she spoke, Ah Zhu felt a strong sense of inferiority. She had never thought that this seemingly cool sister was actually so lonely and fearful. In fact, her thoughts could be seen from her words, which made Ah Zhu's already overflowing sympathy explode, and she only wanted to help her.

"sister……"

Ah Zhu was about to speak, but she thought of what Xia Xiao said to her at the beginning. Every word she said now would affect them. In fact, she didn't have that much ability. She was only the same age as Ru Dandan, not even Wan Junru. But she emphasized and gave up comforting him, saying in another way:

"If I tell you that you have a promising future with your talent, will you ascend to the sky in one step? Or will you just waste your time? Or if I tell you that your talent is mediocre, will you become decadent and stop practicing?"

"I just want to know, I have no other intentions. Please tell me, Master Zhushen."

"I refuse to answer. I can give you guidance on cultivation and even help you make some choices. But talent is fake in itself. Why bother about it? You said that everyone around you is stronger than you and has a better background than you. Then how did you get into the Desolate Palace? My Desolate Palace only looks at strength. If you have strength, you can come in. What's the use of talking about background? What's the use of background?"

"Before we founded the Desolate Palace, we had no relatives in Xishu. Without a background, can we not create our own power? Since we are in the Desolate Palace and are its disciples, everything is equal. What bothers you is not your talent, but your inferiority complex. You feel that you are not as good as others, even as Ru Dandan beside you. However, you are all at different ages in cultivation, and your speed varies from person to person. How do you know that you are weaker than her? And how do you know that she is definitely stronger than you?"

"The current training speed does not determine everything, and even if she is stronger than you, so what? Do you think that you have to defeat all the disciples to live a meaningful life? No! That is a wrong idea. The fact that you can see me now is Huang Dian's affirmation of you. What I said to you is also my affirmation of you. You can't deny Huang Dian, let alone deny it. So, do you know where you are wrong?"

Wan Junru remained silent for a long time and did not agree, but his closed heart opened up little by little.

"I just feel... that I am inferior to others."

"Inferior to whom? You are insulting the Huang Palace and your Mu Xing Tang by saying this. Do you doubt that you should not be the first to come to see me? You have the ability. We are not proud and complacent, but we can't belittle ourselves either."

"But... I'm always like this. I don't know how to solve it. It has affected my life."

"I'll give you a solution."

"What?"

Wan Junru's voice was full of expectation. She didn't want to feel inferior, but this kind of thing was not something she could control. She always looked away when she saw other people's eyes, and carefully distinguished every word she said. Sometimes she felt it was not good to say it out loud, fearing that others would talk about it. Sometimes she kept silent, and then regretted not expressing her opinion.

Many times, Wan Junru wished she was a carefree person, saying whatever she wanted to say, not considering other people's feelings, and not worrying about how she would perform in other people's eyes. But she had been like this for more than 20 years, and it had become a habit, and it was not something that could be changed just by saying so. But Lord Zhushen might have a way, and when she spoke slowly, Wan Junru saw some hope.

"From now on, don't care too much about what others think. Don't think that everyone is centered around you. Don't think that the whispers you hear are all about you. You need to empty yourself and then fill yourself up little by little. We are no worse than anyone else. How can we let our own reasons affect our future?"

"These are my suggestions. They may be a little empty, but if you want to get rid of your current self, you have to do this. And you have to make friends. The more you fear interpersonal communication, the more you have to do it. To be honest, I was just a person from a small mountain village. When I entered the academy in the Great Wilderness World, Xia Xiao and the others could practice, but I couldn't even sense the vitality."

No matter how many reasons there are, they seem to be less convincing than personal experience. Therefore, Ah Zhu prepared to use herself as an example, and at the same time, she found that Wan Junru was more willing to listen than before.

"Then what?"

"I didn't care about that much. I just practiced and ate every day. I didn't know anyone at the beginning, so I was alone every day. Later, more and more people talked to me, and I would take the initiative to say hello when I saw them. But most of the time I was just doing my own thing and didn't stay with others all the time, but when I needed help, they would help me."

"Maybe because you are God, you don't have to maintain relationships, and everyone will lean on you..."

This was Wan Junru's deepest thought, which could not be faked. Ah Zhu listened to it, but shook his head and replied disapprovingly:
