Seeing her senior sister's slightly sad expression for a moment, Li Yiru sighed that love really brings sorrow.
Li Yirou thought for a moment. This was their own business. It was not good to point out Senior Sister's sincerity. It would be better to let them get along on their own. She added, "I just see that he takes good care of Senior Sister."
Lin Chunfang didn't know why she felt more at ease. "Yes, he has a good relationship with Senior Brother Qi, so he treats me well on weekdays."
Isn't this putting the cart before the horse? Li Yirou was speechless to Lin Chunfang and could only say something else, "Senior Sister, you should meditate and recover first. Do you want me to watch over you?"
"No need, I'm fine. You're just too worried." She waved her hand and let Li Yirou go back to practice.
"Then I'll go back first, Senior Sister. Call me if you need anything."
"By the way, Senior Sister, I can boil some water myself today, so you can recover well."
Lin Chunfang disagreed, "It's okay, I'll be fine in an afternoon."
"Okay, go back now."
Li Yirou just felt unworthy.
These days she has been repeating her practice, tempering her body with the help of Lin Chunfang, and also tempering her body with Taxue, and her life is extremely fulfilling.
On the fifteenth day, I also went to listen to the Foundation Establishment Elder giving lectures to the inner and outer disciples. The morning class was about the art of spiritual energy.
Although Li Yirou had never learned the spells the elders were talking about, the principles were the same. In particular, the elders who were building the foundation had a deeper understanding of various spiritual energies and the use of spells, which gave her new insights.
Some disciples saw this inner disciple with five spiritual roots coming empty-handed, without even a note, and nodding occasionally, and they laughed in their hearts at her for being so pretentious.
However, because Lin Chunfang was present, he didn't dare show it.
The afternoon class was taught by Elder Feng Xiaoman. More than thirty inner disciples attended the class. Li Yirou was sitting in the last row. She unexpectedly saw her and smiled at her.
Elder Feng's voice was still cute. Even though Li Yirou didn't quite understand alchemy, she still listened to the entire lecture with great interest.
After finishing the lecture, she answered questions and resolved doubts for her disciples. Feng Xiaoman even asked her specifically, "Do you understand?" Li Yirou smiled embarrassedly and only said that she could understand how to use the elixir, but she knew nothing about alchemy.
The disciples were shocked again. How could this useless person get the attention of Elder Feng? It was really a good luck for a useless person.
.
The next day, Han Yuzhen answered questions for Qi Yu and Lin Chunfang, and Li Yirou also listened to the heavenly book.
She didn't understand, her mind wandered, and she started thinking about other things.
It seems that the master pays more attention to his senior brothers, and his answers to questions raised by senior sisters are always very brief, or he will say that you can ask other elders this question during class.
But his answer to his senior brother's question was more detailed.
Li Yirou was a little unhappy for Lin Chunfang, but she didn't dare to show it. She could only complain silently in her heart.
After answering their questions, Han Yuzhen set his sights on Li Yirou, "Yiro, come here."
Li Yiru stepped forward as instructed, and Han Yuzhen placed a hand on her shoulder. The feeling of being spied on came over her again, causing her heart to beat uncomfortably faster.
However, after only a brief inspection, Han Yuzhen withdrew his hand, along with his spiritual sense, and shook his head, saying, "Your cultivation has not improved during this period."
It turned out that he was watching her cultivation again. Li Yiru relaxed and was a little touched. Her master had said before that he would not care about her, but his actions did not show that.
She felt ashamed and worried. Indeed, she had only recently pushed the progress of the first level of Qi Refining to 75%, and on the surface, there seemed to be no change.
Because she needs to temper her body, it takes up a lot of time, and her cultivation speed is much slower than others. Will the master think she is troublesome and drive her away?
"Master, Junior Sister is currently tempering her body. I'll have her practice hard once she's finished..."
Lin Chunfang opened her mouth to defend her, but Han Yuzhen glanced at her coldly and she quickly shut up.
Li Yiru was a little scared. She had never seen her master so stern before. The look in his eyes just now made her heart tremble. It was as cold as ice.
She huddled beside Lin Chunfang, her heart in a mess. Why did her master look so contradictory? Could it be that he treated his disciples differently?
But she did not ignore Lin Chunfang's discomfort and squeezed her hand to comfort her.
Seeing this, Qi Yu took the initiative to step forward and said, "Master, the disciples are fine now."
"Go down." Han Yuzhen waved his hand calmly, as if the person with the cold eyes just now was not him.
After leaving her master's yard, Li Yiru finally breathed a sigh of relief. The atmosphere just now was depressing and filled with a hint of terror. She never wanted to come to listen to the class with her senior brothers and sisters again.
"Senior Sister, thank you for what you did just now. You don't have to speak for me in the future. What Master said is also true." She said to Lin Chunfang, but she was still frightened.
Lin Chunfang sighed, "It's okay, Master has always treated me like this..."
No matter what she did or what progress she made, she could not win the master's favor or praise. The master always had eyes only for her senior brother.
Perhaps it was because she had three spiritual roots. Even though her gold spiritual root was also rank 4, she still couldn't compare to her senior brother's position in the master's eyes. Who made her senior brother have dual spiritual roots of rank 4?
Li Yirou probably guessed the reason for her loss and sighed as well.
She felt that her senior sister was already very strong, but she also had her own troubles. Perhaps she really wanted to get the master's attention and worked very hard, but was always disappointed.
"Senior Sister, you are practicing for yourself, you don't need to think too much. In my heart, you are the most powerful." Li Yiru shook Lin Chunfang's hand and encouraged her.
Lin Chunfang actually couldn't explain her feelings. After so many years, she should have been used to it, but every time she came out of her master's room, she couldn't help but be silent for a while.
With her junior sister's comfort, she forced a smile. Then she thought about how her junior sister, though less gifted, never complained, while she, on the other hand, was constantly worried about gain and loss. Shouldn't she be calm and composed, and just do what she was supposed to do? Why worry about what she couldn't get...
Suddenly, she felt that her cultivation, which had been stagnant for a month, had loosened up. Lin Chunfang hurriedly said, "Junior sister, you have to heat the water yourself tonight!" and hurried back to her room to go into seclusion.
Li Yiru was happy for her. She returned to the courtyard, but for some reason she couldn't calm down.
She couldn't concentrate on her practice and was always distracted when reading. She kept thinking about the scenes in her master's room just now. Maybe she was a little scared by such a strict teacher.
After all, in the past world, no matter how fierce the teacher was, he would look kind in front of her.
Li Yiru simply did horse stance and lifted weights again, until her legs and arms were sore and weak. Then she meditated for a while to relieve her fatigue and boiled some water.
She only used the clay stove to boil two pots of water, and used her spiritual energy to activate the magic formula for the rest. The water in the pool bubbled and she persisted for 15 minutes. Li Yiru pulled out the stopper and poured in cold water.
I immersed my whole body in it, not allowing myself to think about those trivial things. While I still had the status of an inner disciple, I did as much as I could.
