Sheng Wu listened and noticed the girl's depression and self-blame. Her eyes moved slightly, and then she raised her hand to stroke her forehead.
"Luo Shi, that girl's life was very tiring, so her being able to come to this world and live a new life is God's compensation to her."
Hearing this, Hua Lingjiu narrowed her eyes. Is this really the case? However, she came to this world with a purpose.
Sheng Wu stroked her round face with his slender and soft jade fingers, and looked at her with his eyes slightly lowered.
"Master doesn't ask what your mission is, all I need is an answer from you."
"Will your mission harm me and your fellow seniors?"
Hua Lingjiu raised her eyes and met Sheng Wu's cold eyes. She was silent for a few seconds, then solemnly and seriously.
"No, this disciple will never hurt Master and Luo Qi and the others."
She came here to redeem Sheng Wu, and as for Luo Qi and the others, she would not use them for anything.
Sheng Wu pursed her lips, rarely revealing a smile, and lightly tapped Hua Lingjiu's eyebrows with her fingertips.
"Since your goals don't conflict with ours, why don't you live your life again? The things from your past life aren't worth shackle yourself on. If you can't forget them, then tear them up, just like you destroyed Chengye Village."
[Ding! The heroine's favorability is 50!]
"Okay! I'll listen to Master!"
Hearing this, Hua Lingjiu looked at Sheng Wu in a daze. After a while, the heavy feeling in her heart relaxed a little, and she remembered something.
"Master, what do you think of Chengye Village?"
"It's burned." Sheng Wu waved her hand nonchalantly.
This made Hua Lingjiu's pupils tremble, and he opened his mouth, "Where are those villagers?!"
Sheng Wu was indifferent. "They have been refined and can no longer be human. Don't you think they deserve to die?"
“…”
Hua Lingjiu fell silent. The hatred in her heart seemed to have no reason in an instant. They were all dead, those ignorant villagers who had harmed the baby girl were all dead.
But why couldn't she be happy?
Finally, Sheng Wu patted the back of her hand.
"Okay, go down and think about it. You've finally arrived in this new world. Holding on to those trash who abandoned you will only increase your pain. You don't live for them."
Hearing this, Hua Lingjiu nodded slowly, "...Yes, Master."
Then she looked at Sheng Wu with mixed feelings, with a hint of closeness and attachment in her eyes, and then she stood up and left the hut.
She went outside and wanted to see Luo Qi and the others, but when she reached the corner, she found that they were all sitting in their rooms with frowns on their faces. Even though they didn't say anything, there was a hint of sadness and shock between their brows.
Hua Lingjiu thought they were here because of Yu Chenming's departure, so she stepped forward.
"Okay, I went to ask Master, and the eldest brother does have his own difficulties. We can't keep him by our side. He is not our appendage. He is the one who helped us grow. He just retired after arriving at the destination."
She began to comfort everyone, but everyone just turned their heads and looked at her after listening to her words. Then their eyes seemed to be relieved about Yu Chenming's matter, but there seemed to be a hint of gloom in their eyes because of something.
No one knows what kind of terrifying nightmares they have been repeating during the six months they have been in a coma.
Luo Qi smiled as if nothing had happened, stood up, patted Hua Lingjiu's head, and comforted her in a gentle voice.
"Well, we don't blame him. We just can't accept it so quickly. After a while, we'll get used to it."
He looked at Hua Lingjiu with complicated eyes, and there was a hint of deep sadness in the depths of the boy's starry eyes.
Hearing this, Hua Lingjiu, who didn't notice anything wrong with them, breathed a sigh of relief and smiled as he slapped Luo Qi's hand away.
"Tsk, my head is very expensive, do you think you deserve it if you break it?"
She rolled her eyes at him jokingly.
Then he looked at everyone and said, "Oh right, Master said that she will not participate in or interfere with the rest of our journey. Let us go and train on our own. However, after ten years, we have to return to Piaomiao Mountain to participate in the trial."
Hearing this, everyone frowned slightly.
"What about Master? Where did she go?"
Hua Lingjiu pouted and shook his head, "Well, Master said..."
He paused pretending to be mysterious, then suddenly made a face under everyone's expectant gaze.
"I won't tell you!"
"You, you..."
This joke made everyone give her a helpless look, and the atmosphere became a lot more relaxed.
Luo Qi also discovered that after she had a private conversation with her master just now, the sadness in her eyes seemed to have dissipated a lot.
But there are not many days like this anymore...
"Hey, where's Huaijin?"
"Maybe he went out for a walk. After all, he cares a lot about the eldest brother."
......
"I've finished listening, it's time to come out."
On this side, after Hua Lingjiu left, Sheng Wu waved his hand and closed the door.
Then he turned and glanced behind the screen.
Hearing this, Huai Jin slowly walked out and stood respectfully in front of Sheng Wu.
"Master."
"I've heard everything, why don't you leave?" Sheng Wu didn't even look at him, she just focused on holding the pen in her right hand and drawing a picture, and said coldly.
Huai Jin, who was wearing a silver mask on the left side of his face, frowned. He stood in place and suddenly asked a question.
"What is the purpose of everything, Master?"
The moment the words fell.
“Bang!”
"Um!"
The young man was suddenly hit by a whip in front of him, and the mask on his face was knocked to the ground. There was no blood on his body, but the pain was deep in his bones.
"What is your identity? This is something you should ask!" Sheng Wu sneered, looking at him with contempt and sarcasm, without any warmth.
Her attitude towards him was not as gentle or even concerned as when she faced Yu Chenming and Hua Lingjiu. Instead, she was indifferent.
Huai Jin, noticing this, stood silently in place, head lowered, hands clenched tightly in his sleeves.
He suddenly knelt on the ground with a plop, his back straight.
"I am not as talented and intelligent as my senior brother, nor am I as pleasing to my master as my senior sister, but I am also his disciple. They can ask the master, so why can't I?"
Every word the boy said was like the stubbornness of being ignored by a biased elder.
