Later, until Du Shanhai appeared and intercepted Baihao and the others, Su Yuewan did not make a move.
She wanted to see just how strong Bai Hao was, because she had never been able to directly discern his cultivation level, so she could only try to figure it out through actual combat.
The result was as she expected, but not entirely.
After Bai Hao withstood a palm strike from Du Shanhai in his Blood Burning Triple Formation state, he actually managed to severely injure Du Shanhai. Even she was amazed by that move of concealing the sword within.
Moreover, judging from his battle with Du Shanhai, Bai Hao's cultivation level is clearly above Du Shanhai's, and he may have already reached the Zhixing Realm.
It should be noted that although Su Yuewan is currently in the Supreme Realm, she is still some distance away from truly reaching the Supreme Realm, and only by overcoming this mental barrier can she become a complete Supreme Realm expert.
At present, she can only be described as being at the peak of the Knowledge and Action Realm, half a step towards the Supreme Realm.
And Bai Hao actually reached the Knowledge and Action Realm, how could this not be surprising?
It's important to know that there are only a dozen or so people on the entire continent who have reached the Knowledge and Action Realm, and each of them is a pillar of a sect. Now that Bai Hao has also reached the Knowledge and Action Realm, how can this not be astonishing?
But after the initial surprise, Su Yuewan felt more inexplicably melancholy and bewilderment.
Because she knew that Bai Hao's ability to reach the Zhixing Realm was not so much related to her, but rather to the mysterious master behind Bai Hao.
In other words, Bai Hao didn't reach the Zhixing Realm because of her, so he might not be wholeheartedly devoted to being her disciple.
Perhaps Bai Hao will be leaving soon... Thinking of this, Su Yuewan felt a strange sense of loss.
She didn't want to let these feelings bother her, so she could only put on a cold face for Bai Hao...
Back at the sect, Bai Hao cooked a tomato and egg stir-fry for Su Yuewan as requested, but she ate it absentmindedly before returning to Thousand Spirit Peak.
"Why does this woman seem a bit strange?" Bai Hao scratched his head in confusion as he watched Su Yuewan's departing figure.
This was the first time he had seen Su Yuewan like this. Not only did she not make things difficult for him, but even the tomato and egg stir-fry that she had specifically requested failed to pique her interest, which was quite strange.
but,
"Maybe it's her period. Who cares, as long as she doesn't get angry at me. I can use this opportunity to organize the spiritual plants I got and see what kind of pills I can refine." Bai Hao turned around and went back, pulling out the rice cooker-like alchemy furnace from the corner…
...
Su Yuewan returned to Qianling Peak somewhat absentmindedly, looking at the peach blossoms in the garden, which ultimately could not withstand the arrival of late autumn and withered away.
She was troubled, or perhaps somewhat at a loss.
Because she discovered that she was actually a little afraid that Bai Hao might leave one day.
He has such a mysterious and powerful master behind him; surely he'll take Bai Hao away in the end. It's not that she can't let him go, but Su Yuewan suddenly felt that if Bai Hao really left one day, who would cook such delicious meals for her then?
Who else could she beat or insult without fighting back or arguing? The other disciples in the sect didn't feel that way at all.
Although that guy often angered her, sometimes making her so angry she felt like she wanted to strangle him on the spot.
But if Bai Hao really left and no one was angry with her anymore, just thinking about it made her feel... inexplicably reluctant to let him go.
"Tch, it's just one less cook. I can just go to Ning Wan's place for meals every day. Gui Feng Huo's cooking is just as good as his."
"Without him, wouldn't it be better for me to be less annoying? Being in a better mood can even help me live a few more years."
Su Yuewan tried to comfort herself like this, but she was still inexplicably irritable inside.
In a fit of anger, she went straight back to her room and lay down on the jade bed.
This is used to suppress mental obstacles and can also help people calm down.
However, lying on the cold jade bed, looking at the ceiling, Su Yuewan's mind kept replaying Bai Hao's infuriating face.
That guy often makes me angry, so why do I feel reluctant to let him leave? It's absurd!
Su Yuewan turned over, but the scene that flashed through her mind was the day on the way to Da Cang Kingdom, when she and Bai Hao had an accident and she ended up on top of Bai Hao.
That day, they were so close, and she still vividly remembers that strange feeling, as if it were just yesterday. She could clearly hear each other's breathing and their heartbeats...
Su Yuewan suddenly felt restless and her heart began to race. Even the cold jade bed could not suppress her agitation. Her mind was filled with Bai Hao.
"Damn it, why is that guy still stuck in my head?!"
She cursed under her breath, abruptly stood up, and resolutely walked towards the backyard at the foot of the mountain...
...
"boom!"
From time to time, the booming sound of explosions could be heard from the backyard.
Bai Hao hid in a corner of the wall, looking at the alchemy furnace that looked like a rice cooker in the middle of the courtyard.
At this moment, the alchemy furnace was occasionally "exploding," emitting bursts of black smoke.
But the alchemy furnace was sturdy enough. Although explosions could be heard from time to time, the furnace did not actually break apart and continued to refine pills.
Bai Hao was unsure whether they were still practicing or had already failed, and he dared not approach, so he could only watch from a corner.
"Eleven times, twelve times... thirteen times already. Whether it's a success or a failure, there should be a result by now, right?" Bai Hao was getting impatient.
He just wanted to refine some pills, but today was his first time refining pills, and this whole mess happened. Now he doesn't dare to go near them anymore.
Su Yuewan walked from Qianling Peak and saw Bai Hao hiding in the corner of the wall from afar. Her restlessness subsided instantly, and she even felt a strange sense of happiness.
Strange, really strange
She would never have done this before.
"What are you doing?" Su Yuewan walked over excitedly and gently patted Bai Hao's shoulder.
"Huh? I'm refining pills." Bai Hao turned around and glanced at Su Yuewan, but didn't react much, his eyes fixed on the pill refining furnace in the courtyard.
"Refining pills? What kind of pills are you refining?" Hearing his words, Su Yuewan looked over with some curiosity and saw the strange pill refining furnace in the courtyard, which was making a "bang" sound from time to time, as if it was about to explode at any moment.
"Are you sure... you're refining pills?" Su Yuewan was speechless.
Does this guy have some misunderstanding about alchemy?
