Hearing this, Sheng Wu's hand that was painting paused slightly. She slowly raised her eyes and looked at the young man whose mask had fallen off and half of his face was covered with a terrifying black seal.
"You said it yourself, you are not as good as them. Why do you think I can think highly of you?"
"A biased person knows that he is biased." She did not hesitate to treat Yu Chenming and Hua Lingjiu differently.
These words made Huai Jin's face turn pale, not only because of Sheng Wu's humiliation, but also because her words reminded him of his humble life over the years.
"If the disciple becomes powerful, will the master be partial to him?"
He looked up at Sheng Wu unwillingly, his dark pupils filled with a hint of jealousy. Why did Yu Chenming and Hua Lingjiu receive her care? They were both disciples, but she was very frugal with her words towards him, yet she cared about them in every way.
Just because Yu Chenming and Hua Lingjiu are both from another world, is there something behind it?
It’s not that he cares about Sheng Wu’s favoritism, but he wants to get the same resources. That cowardly and jealous heart wants to be fair. He can obviously reach the same height as Yu Chenming.
Sheng Wu sneered, holding the pen in her hand, and slowly walked forward barefoot.
She leaned over slightly, pinched Huai Jin's chin with her left hand, and held the cinnabar-stained paintbrush in her right hand. Seeing Huai Jin's nervous expression, she dotted the paintbrush at the corners of his eyes.
"Actually, I also want to be partial to you, but unfortunately, you are not qualified."
The two were very close, with only three fists' distance between their faces. It was so close that Huai Jin could clearly see his own reflection in the depths of Sheng Wu's beautiful, light-colored, cold eyes.
Her words made him gasp, and before he could say anything else, Sheng Wu threw out another word in a condescending manner.
"If you can achieve the results I want in ten years within five years, I can consider teaching you personally to see if you are more talented than Yu Chenming."
Huai Jin's black pupils moved, and he rolled his Adam's apple. He looked at Sheng Wu's beautiful face with a clear look in his eyes.
"...What results?"
Sheng Wu curled her lips, moved the paintbrush away from the corner of his eye, looked at the tiny teardrop mole, smiled, and looked at his expression which seemed a little dazed.
Before Huai Jin could even think of checking her emotions himself, she stood up slightly and loosened her hand that was pinching his jaw, leaving only a soft warmth that made Huai Jin feel a little uncomfortable.
"Wait until you... reach the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation."
"If you have the ability to find me by then, I will see what you can do."
After saying that, she dropped her pen, slowly turned around and left.
The young man kneeling on the ground was silent for a while and then slowly stood up. When he raised his eyes, he saw the person in the portrait on the desk.
There is no specific face, only a rough outline, but there is a teardrop mole at the corner of the eye.
Is a man.
Huai Jin frowned slightly and glanced at the mirror opposite him. On the right side of his face, which was already quite handsome and had no seal, there was a cinnabar teardrop mole painted by Sheng Wu with a paintbrush on the corner of his eye.
So, she was drawing him?
No, he doesn't have a teardrop mole on his face...
Huai Jin looked at the painting and guessed that Sheng Wu would never come back. After taking a look, he turned and left.
After a while, a thief-like figure quietly stole the painting.
......
Five years later.
"Bang!"
A loud roar suddenly erupted in a cave, and then.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The rest of the caves around also emitted a shaking sound.
"Ah! I have finally reached the late Nascent Soul stage!!!" An excited and crisp voice spread and echoed in the mountain stream.
Then, eight white figures slowly emerged from the roaring smoke in the cave.
"How come you are already in the late Nascent Soul stage?!" Luo Qi was the first to come out and walked to the side of the girl.
The boy who had not grown up before is now over 1.8 meters tall and has become a handsome young man with a bright future.
Hua Lingjiu has also lost the baby fat and immaturity of five years ago. Her eyes and brows reveal the inherent charm of the nine-tailed fox clan. However, her eyes are clear, looking pure and charming, which creates a unique beauty.
Hua Lingjiu raised his eyebrows and looked at the aura emanating from Luo Qi, and couldn't help feeling a little proud.
"Humph, who are you looking down on? Tsk tsk, Senior Brother Luo Qi, you still need to work harder in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul!"
Hahaha, after she used the Phoenix clan cultivation method given to her by her master, her progress in the past five years has been even faster than before.
This time everyone will go into seclusion for three months.
She was previously surpassed by everyone, but now she is one level higher than the most powerful Luo Qi!
Seeing her teasing him, the young man in white clothes smiled with a soft light in his eyes, staring at the girl in front of him, laughing loudly.
"It does require more effort, so I'll have to rely on my junior sister to protect me during this period."
Hua Lingjiu said proudly, "No problem, no problem. Just give me some protection money."
As she spoke, she patted Luo Qi's shoulder. She wanted to pat his head, but she was only about 1.6 meters tall and couldn't reach it at all.
Afterwards, Hua Lingjiu looked at everyone, his eyes filled with surprise, "Hey, Luo Ba is in the early stage of Yuanying, and Luo Wu is also!"
At a glance, three of the young men had reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul, Luo Qi was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and the rest were in the great perfection of the Golden Core.
"Hey, where's Eleven?" Hua Lingjiu suddenly frowned. When the dust around her settled, she looked around but didn't see Huai Jin.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone immediately looked towards the last cave.
But he found that the place had already been broken up and no one was there.
After Yu Chenming left, Luo Qi, who had become the backbone of the group, frowned and walked over. When he came to the cave, he found that there was already some dust.
And there was a piece of paper stuck on the stone wall.
He took it down and looked at it, and suddenly felt helpless and worried.
