Chapter 619: But I Know I Am a Good Lady!
Luo Qingwu was only 10 years old, younger than Shi Tianhao. As she joined the sect, she became the junior of all of the Immediate Disciple.
Although Shi Tianhao was still a junior, he was not the youngest anymore.
For Li Yuanfang, he was adamant in addressing Shi Tianhao as senior, which caused Shi Tianhao to become a laughing stock among Xiao Yan and the rest. However, with Luo Qingwu around, Shi Tianhao was never too bothered about this. He was prepared to act according to what he promised.
He wanted to be reasonable. While Li Yuanfang had his own reasoning, Shi Tianhao was insistent on fulfilling his promise. Li Yuanfang felt that it was not too nice for him to persist on with his way.
"Qingwu greets all Seniors." Luo Qingwu greeted Xiao Yan, Shi Tianhao, Yue Hongyan and the rest. As she was saying, she felt someone staring at her suddenly. It was a lady even younger than her.
This young lady tied two small braids and she looked cute. Even Luo Qingwu was excited as she saw her. But the young lady did not look very friendly.
Xiao Yan turned his head to look at the young lady, "Tuntun, what’s wrong with you again?"
Tuntun snorted and did not speak.
Shi Tianhao laughed, "Learn more from my junior. Be more gentle and obedient. In this way, you can marry yourself off. Don’t you miss that Xuanming beast? Maybe it’s because you are too childish, that’s why he doesn’t want you."
"Others can say me, but not you!" Tuntun shouted indignantly. She looked at Luo Qingwu and snorted, "Furthermore, she only appears obedient. But in fact, she is not comparable to me."
Luo Qingwu opened her eyes wide and looked at Tuntun weirdly. Tuntun stared at her fiercely, "What are you looking at, am I maligning you?"
Xiao Yan said, "Where is your proof in saying that?"
Tuntun pursed her lips, "A female’s...no, the instincts of a female Taotie!"
Xiao Yan and the rest rolled their eyes and Shi Tianhao laughed, "Believing you is like believing a pig can climb a tree."
Luo Qingwu was a little afraid as she hid behind Xiao Yan. She blinked her eyes and said cautiously, "Did I do something wrong?"
"You did nothing wrong. Someone is just wrong in the head." Xiao Yan said. He protected Luo Qingwu and stared at Tuntun, "Don’t mess with her. Otherwise, we can settle all new and old debts."
Tuntun shouted unhappily, "Everything I said is real!"
She scanned Xiao Yan and the rest and snorted heavily, "All you males are easily masked from the truth!"
Yue Hongyan heard this and picked her brows slightly. Tuntun shouted at her, "You have also gone bad because of them!"
After finishing saying, Tuntun turned her head and escaped. She left Yue Hongyan and the rest behind, who were unsure of whether to laugh at the situation.
Xiao Yan turned his head to look at Luo Qingwu and said, "If she finds trouble with you, tell me."
Luo Qingwu’s voice was very gentle and she said softly, "I shall hide from her next time."
"Are you joking?" Xiao Yan’s brows raised. "Afraid of her? I dare her to mess with you. If she dares, I will smash her until her soul is battered."
Shi Tianhao patted the head of Luo Qingwu, "Don’t be so gutless and soft. It’s always been us bullying the rest. We cannot let others bully us, do you understand?"
As Shi Tianhao spoke, he sounded very emotional. He patted Luo Qingwu’s head again. He realized that when he was small, his Master and the rest liked to do that to him. It was for no reason but the rather comfortable feeling of doing so.
But now he was older, he would not let them pat his head. But before Luo Qingwu grew up, he could do it to her.
Luo Qingwu answered, "Okay, I will remember!"
A sense of awareness surged into her brain suddenly. Lin Feng’s figure appeared and he looked at her. Luo Qingwu was dumbfounded.
Lin Feng’s awareness retreated from Luo Qingwu’s mind and he could not help but laugh.
Tuntun’s instincts were quite spot-on.
Lin Feng’s understanding of Luo Qingwu was deeper now. He knew that although she seemed childish and stubborn at most times, she was quite mischievous.
On the surface, she looked very obedient and cute. But in her heart, she was very wild, just like Shi Tianhao.
As she feigned ignorance just now, she took one over Tuntun.
More accurately speaking, Tuntun dug a hole for herself first and Luo Qingwu made it deeper for her.
"Tuntun must feel very indignant now?" Lin Feng shook his head in laughter. If a script had to follow Tuntun’s feelings now, it must be something like this below.
Tattoos, smoking, drinking, cursing...no, it’s wrong. It should be that she was greedy, despicable, direct and vulgar. But she knew she was a good lady. The real hypocrites were the ones who acted innocent, pure, shy and liked to wear pink....no, liked to wear red clothing. Men who were shallow only looked at appearances. Thus, they could only miss out on good ladies and get tortured by the real hypocrites.
Only a female could differentiate between them!
Tuntun must be feeling this way now.
Lin Feng laughed. In fact, Luo Qingwu’s behavior would be able to be understood after Shi Tianhao and the rest interacted with her for a while.
Luo Qingwu was a little mischievous, but she was harmless. She did not offend anybody.
If Tuntun did not express her hostility at the start, Luo Qingwu would not have retaliated.
It was also common for youngsters to have fun with each other. If Tuntun was really vicious in her words, she would not go to the extent of hurting Luo Qingwu. At most, she just wanted to expose Luo Qingwu.
"However, no matter how I see it, I feel things will not be good for her in the future." Lin Feng laughed unkindly. "Between a bad-tempered person and a person with a vicious heart, without resorting to violence, the person who is bad-tempered is likely to be the one at a disadvantage."
Till here, Lin Feng’s Immediate Disciple had agreed on their seniority.
Xiao Yan was the eldest disciple, followed by Zhu Yi, Wang Lin, Yue Hongyan and Yang Qing. After that, Li Yuanfang was next followed by Shi Tianhao and Luo Qingwu.
Li Yuanfang and Luo Qingwu just joined, and they had to transit to the Great Celestial Way of the Eight Trigrams as their foundation in their cultivation of mantras.
Xiao Yan, Zhu Yi, Wang Lin and the rest all had their own disciples and they had to guide them along.
The second round of test was different from the first round of test. During the first round of test, the Foundational Disciples had already gone through a certain level of foundational training. After that were they only separated to their different Masters.
For those who passed the second round of test, there were those who came from the first Sect-Opening Ceremony at Shazhou County and those who came from the Sect-Opening Ceremony at Xiling City. Some of them had backgrounds in cultivation while some of them were totally new. But even if they had cultivated before, they did not do it with the Celestial Sect of Wonders.
That was why for this batch of Successive Disciples, Xiao Yan, Wang Lin, Shi Tianhao, Yue Hongyan and the rest had to work harder than before. Without Zhu Yi supporting laying the foundation for them, part of the new mantras the disciples had to cultivate had to be taught to them right from the beginning.
Yang Qing had no one under him, thus he was naturally relaxed. After going through necessary preparations, he started to retreat and pushed for the Aurous Core Stage.
And after settling what they had at hand, Xiao Yan and Shi Tianhao started to prepare for the Nascent Soul Stage.
For Shi Tianhao, Lin Feng was not too worried. In fact, before his battle with Shi Tianyi, Shi Tianhao had the ability to push for the Nascent Soul Stage. But to perfect it, he delayed it intentionally.
Now that he had attained victory over Shi Tianyi, regardless of his state of mind or powers, he had reached peak condition. Challenging the Void Lightning Tribulations now to form the Nascent Soul was guaranteed to succeed.
What left Lin Feng more bothered was Yang Qing forming the Aurous Core and Xiao Yan forming the Nascent Soul. For Yang Qing, it was because of his state of mind. His powers and control of his own body was almost perfect. The only challenge he faced was overcoming the barriers of life and death in his mind.
If he could do so, then forming the Aurous Core would be easy.
However, with Yang Qing’s character, if he dared to take this step, it meant that he was well-aware. If he had even the slightest doubt, he would not have pushed for the Aurous Core Stage. It seemed like his previous trainings had produced very commendable results.
That was why Lin Feng was not too worried about Yang Qing. He just needed a little supervision.
The more problematic one was Xiao Yan. It had nothing to do with Xiao Yan. With his state of mind and powers, it was not too difficult for him to form the Nascent Soul.
But Lin Feng had wilder thought. If he could succeed, Xiao Yan’s powers would be much stronger than expected. But because of this thought, it caused more risks and dangers to Xiao Yan when he wanted to form the Nascent Soul.
As a result, Lin Feng put most of his efforts on Xiao Yan, so as to change that thought into reality.
After listening to Lin Feng’s explanation, Xiao Yan’s first reaction was to agree. He was a very courageous person and did not fear danger. Lin Feng’s thought suited his palate.
After everything started, it was as what Lin Feng expected. The first of the three to have some progress was Shi Tianhao.
After the Void Lightning Tribulations, Shi Tianhao’s Aurous Core cracked. A flashing infant appeared out of his head. Around the infant, two streaks of colorful, holy lights of creation surfaced.
The radiance and aura of the holy light was contained within it and it looked very ordinary. But it carried an immense power.
"Congratulations to your Immediate Disciple, Shi Tianhao, for forming the Nascent Soul."
Lin Feng heard what was said in the system and the infant on Shi Tianhao’s head slowly retreated back into his head. After roaring, he bowed towards Lin Feng, "Thank you Master for your guidance."
"Very good, very well done." Lin Feng nodded his head repeatedly, "I still have to take care of your Eldest Senior and Fifth Senior. I shall entrust you with a task."
"Nurture your Nascent Soul. After you stabilize, settle how you want to improve the cultivations of your disciples. After that, I need you to go and find something."
