Chapter 133 – Friends

Wen Zixing noticed the young girl who suddenly came over to Lu Yaoyao and said something sarcastic out of the blue. He couldn’t help but give her a few more glances.

Murong Liluo looked around and noticed Wen Zixing, Chao Muxue, and others who had gathered here after her loud comment. She walked over confidently and said, “You can see His Venerable, right? Take me there.” She used a commanding tone, which was quite displeasing.

Lu Yaoyao understood that Murong Liluo had overheard their conversation. Before Lu Yaoyao could respond, Wen Zixing snorted, “This junior sister, have you learned how to fly on a sword? What’s your cultivation level? More importantly, who are you to just demand us to take you? Are we very familiar with you?”

“You!” Murong Liluo’s eyes suddenly reddened, and she turned and ran away.

Wen Zixing scratched the back of his head, wondering, “Was I too harsh?” This girl had a bit of a bad temper, but she was ultimately a minor character with few scenes, no more than a cannon fodder. Should he have gone easier on her?

Lu Yaoyao shook her head. She watched Murong Liluo’s retreating figure, lost in thought.

“What are you looking at, Yaoyao?”

“Is she trying to be friends with us?”

Wen Zixing was puzzled. “Why would you think that?”

“Look at her, she keeps coming over again and again, as if to show her presence. Isn’t there a saying that goes, ‘if you like someone, you tease them’?” Lu Yaoyao’s reasoning was entirely plausible. While Murong Liluo acted provocatively every time, she hadn’t actually caused any substantial harm or gained any advantage.

Wen Zixing nodded thoughtfully. “That makes sense.” When he was younger, he used to pull the braids of the girl sitting in front of him, teasing her constantly just to get her attention. As a result, he was taken to the principal’s office and had his parents informed.

Lu Yaoyao shook her head. This Murong Liluo was several years younger than her, and a spoiled rich girl on top of that. Her first impression of her wasn’t good, and she didn’t really want to be friends with her.

Clearly, the others felt the same way, and they didn’t pay any more attention to this incident, continuing their practice.

Chao Muxue and Du Qianshan didn’t continue practicing flying swords; instead, they talked to Lu Yaoyao and Wen Zixing about their insights when absorbing qi into their bodies, hoping that the two could start their formal cultivation sooner.

Lu Yaoyao was deeply touched. Although she didn’t really need their instruction, she appreciated their kind gestures.

After class, Lu Yaoyao wasn’t idle; she had to rush back to the South Fifth Peak. Her Master was strict with her studies, and she still had to attend a one-on-one intensive lecture with her Master. In the evening, while she was burying herself in homework at her desk, Yao Jiuxiao appeared silently.

Lu Yaoyao looked up and saw her father standing in front of her. She immediately tossed her brush aside and jumped onto the table, rushing over to him. “Father!”

Yao Jiuxiao caught the little girl with one hand and expertly held her in his arms.

“Father—” After such a long time apart, Lu Yaoyao snuggled with Yao Jiuxiao for a moment and then eagerly shared, “Master praised me again today. Your daughter is indeed brilliant. Master said I’m a one-in-hundred-year rare alchemy genius!” Lu Yaoyao was elated. As expected, she truly was the most extraordinarily clever child!
