“I still think the other three senior brothers should come along.” Luo Chu kicked a pebble away, his tone annoyed. “But Master insisted on preventing the three of them from going to find Chen Sangruo and not letting them come to train.”
Luo Chu gritted her teeth fiercely, "In the end, it's still Shen Sangruo's fault."
"It's all her fault for being willful and disrespectful to our master. She was sent down the mountain to gain experience, which made our senior brothers' attention all go to her. They will do anything to get attention."
"Even my senior brothers don't really talk to me anymore. She's ruined the Zhenlin Peak group. It's really despicable."
Luo Chu looked indignant, her disgust and resentment towards Shen Sangruo growing even stronger.
"Fourth Senior Brother, don't blame Fifth Senior Sister. It's because I stole the attention of the other senior brothers that Fifth Senior Sister has become like this. She just wanted more attention from the other senior brothers." Bai Mumu lowered her eyes and said with self-reproach.
"How can you blame yourself? What do you mean you stole it? This originally belonged to you." Luo Chu quickly grasped Bai Mumu's shoulders and solemnly said to her, "Junior Sister, you must not be influenced by Chen Sangruo."
"She is driven by jealousy. Her heart is dark and twisted. If she were a good person, she should feel more sorry for you and make it up to you. After all, she has occupied your position for many years and made you suffer so much."
Luo Chu seemed to have forgotten that when Bai Mumu was first found, Shen Sangruo was also trying her best to treat her well.
It was because they gradually neglected her that she focused more on pleasing them.
"Hmph, if I run into her this time, I, as her senior brother, will definitely teach her a lesson."
He tightened his grip on the storage bag in his hand.
Inside was the Seven Emotions Gu given to him by Lu Shiqing, who instructed him to take advantage of the opportunity to train and find Shen Sangruo, and to make sure to put the Gu on her.
When Lu Shiqing spoke to him, his expression was very serious, and he repeatedly emphasized that he must carefully observe Shen Sangruo's reaction and describe it to him in detail after returning to the sect.
He didn't know why Lu Shiqing would put the Seven Emotions Gu on Shen Sangruo again, but he guessed that Lu Shiqing must also hate her to death, otherwise why would he let him "chase her for thousands of miles".
She still pretended to be indifferent to them, but everyone knew that she couldn't live without them.
For someone as possessive and emotionally charged as her, the pain inflicted by the Seven Emotions Gu was something she couldn't possibly endure.
Tch, once he finds her, he'll definitely use the Seven Emotions Gu to make her reveal her true form!
He sighed again, "If only Shen Sang could be as cute and sensible as Junior Sister."
Why make such a fuss and cause each other unhappiness?
Upon hearing this, Bai Mumu simply smiled and lowered her head slightly, seemingly a little embarrassed.
[Ding—Luo Chu's favorability +1, current favorability 89]
A fleeting look of triumph flashed across Bai Mumu's eyes.
If Shen Sang had fallen into the volcano that time, Feng Heyun and the others, especially Lu Shiqing, would have experienced a sharp drop in their favorability.
Although she later learned that Shen Sangruo was still alive, and with her efforts, her favorability rating improved slightly, but it never exceeded 80 points.
Nowadays, only Luo Chu, with his simple mind, is somewhat easy to fool.
Luo Chu's emotions came and went quickly, and she soon brought the topic back to the training.
"This training mission is very simple. All you need to do is collect a sufficient amount of millennium ice. However, to prevent any accidents, Junior Sister, you should not participate in the mission."
"I'll pick your share for you." Luo Chu took on all the tasks himself, appearing more composed and reliable.
Bai Mumu feigned gratitude, "Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother. You're so kind to me, but I don't want to be a burden to the team. Besides, there are so many other people traveling with us, so you don't need to worry."
"Speaking of which, there seem to be some people from other cultivation families in the group." Luo Chu looked thoughtfully at his companions not far away. "That one is from the Wu family of Flower Language City, that one is from the Sun family of Jade Flower City, and that one is from the Tian family of Jade Pavilion City..."
Upon hearing the words "Qionglou City Tian Family," the person mentioned by Luo Chu subconsciously turned around.
It was Tian Haotian, who had been brutally beaten by Shen Sangruo earlier.
After she left, Tian Yuanshan saved him and used all sorts of miraculous medicines to help him recover from being half-dead within a few months, so that he could catch up with this trial.
So much so that he now feels somewhat apprehensive when he sees disciples of the Flying Cloud Sect, fearing that another Shen Sangruo might appear.
Unexpectedly, the female cultivator in white smiled gently at him.
Her face seemed even paler than her clothes, and her skin was almost transparent in the sunlight.
That seemingly frail and delicate woman's smile towards him was both resilient and gentle.
In that instant, Tian Haotian's heart seemed to be struck by something, skipping a beat.
If it weren't for the man next to her giving him a look that seemed to want to devour him, he doesn't know how much longer he would have remained stunned.
Tian Haotian hurriedly turned around, his heart pounding.
Unlike the simple desires he had when he frequented brothels before, it seemed he was truly moved.
Bai Mumu withdrew her gaze with satisfaction, and continued talking with Luo Chu beside her as if nothing had happened.
"Fourth Senior Brother, we should also make more good connections and interact more with the disciples of those cultivation families."
"Make friends with them?" Luo Chu's eyes were full of disdain.
As Lingxiao Zhenren's personal disciples, they have this status, so they don't need to interact with anyone at all.
Wouldn't associating with those people tarnish their status?
Luo Chu had a very high opinion of himself.
"Fourth Senior Brother, the second most important purpose of our training is to expand our network of contacts."
Luo Chu still frowned.
Bai Mumu pouted slightly, pretending to be angry as she turned her body to the side.
"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you. I really can't do anything with you." Luo Chu said helplessly, and could only give in.
Bai Mumu then smiled again, "Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother."
She glanced meaningfully at Tian Haotian.
She found her goal.
——
Shen Sangruo's map happened to show a frozen land, which was named Xieshan Ice Plain because it was located on a huge flat slope.
The Xieshan Icefield has existed for at least a thousand years, but in the eyes of the world, it is just an ordinary icefield no different from other cold regions.
Because of its low risk factor, it naturally lacks many resources and treasures. The only useful thing is the millennia-old ice on the ice plains, nurtured by spiritual energy.
It can be described as utterly unremarkable.
However, Shen Sangruo in her previous life determined through various sources that there was an ancient ice cave on the ice plain, which was the best place for the Snow Soul Ice Heart Lotus to grow.
However, she had no way of knowing the exact location of the Ice Cave.
The Xieshan Icefield stretches for tens of thousands of square kilometers, and she could only investigate it one by one.
Shen Sangruo used a speed-travel talisman and quickly advanced towards the Xieshan Ice Plain.
As luck would have it, I ran into a familiar figure on the street.
