With her new mask on, Yu Huang sat cross-legged at the small desk on the window sill of the rented room and began to study.
To be honest, the knowledge points that Lin Jiansheng had sorted out was very comprehensive, completely in line with Yu Huang, a dabbler student’s studies.
Just as Yu Huang finished reading a knowledge point, she heard a scoff in her mind. Then, Su Tingxue’s sharp voice was heard. “It’s been more than 600 years, but this is still the curriculum. There has been no improvement at all.”
Yu Huang heard it but pretended not to hear it and continued reading. She memorized a few knowledge points and heard Su Tingxue say, “Are you a pig? You only remembered such a simple content after memorizing it twice!”
Yu Huang couldn’t take it anymore. She put aside the reference book and threatened Su Tingxue mentally, “If you make another sound, I’ll send you to Saint Xuan Ye!”
Su Tingxue immediately quieted down.
After being interrupted by her, Yu Huang instantly lost interest in studying.
She leaned against the wall and stuffed a pillow into her arms. She stared at the children playing downstairs and said to Su Tingxue, “I don’t care what happened between you and Xuan Ye, but I don’t have anything against Xuan Ye. You’re just a weak consciousness, but Xuan Ye is a Level 9 Purifying Spirit Master. You should know very well who I can gain the most from.”
When Su Tingxue heard Yu Huang’s words, she was instantly angered to the point of stomping her feet and cursing in her mind. “Xuan Ye is an ingrate. He deserves to be struck by lightning. The heavens won’t let him off! If you believe him, you’re just being stupid!”
Yu Huang calmly analyzed, “However, the ingrate you speak of became a respected Level 9 Purifying Spirit Master. After you died, not only was your corpse dismembered, but even your soul was restrained in the Black Dome for six hundred years. It can be seen that the heavens are sometimes blind.”
Su Tingxue remained silent for a longer time.
Yu Huang knew that Su Tingxue had suffered a blow. She chuckled and asked Su Tingxue, “Senior, do you know when the heavens are the most reliable?”
Su Tingxue asked in confusion, “Huh?”
Yu Huang said, “When you become the heavens yourself!”
Su Tingxue’s emotions fluctuated violently when she heard this. She shook Yu Huang’s mind a few times before she calmed down. Su Tingxue sighed and said, “Yu Huang, it’s a pity that we weren’t born in the same era. Otherwise, we would have definitely become good friends.”
After a pause, Su Tingxue said, “No, I’ll accept you as my disciple.”
“Shut up. You’re just an energy blob that relies on me to absorb spiritual force to survive. Don’t talk big.”
Su Tingxue fell silent again, and Yu Huang was unsure of what she was thinking.
Yu Huang saw a middle-aged man standing under a tree in the estate. The man looked around warily. He had shifty eyes, and it was obvious that he was up to no good.
Yu Rufeng?
What was he doing here?
Later on, she recalled that after she got drunk that night, she had called everyone to settle accounts. Yu Huang could vaguely guess Yu Rufeng’s intentions.
He probably couldn’t afford to bribe her, so he wanted to shut her up forever.
Yu Huang frowned and stood up to leave the window. She prepared to go downstairs.
At this moment, Su Tingxue suddenly said, “Xuan Ye was the same as me. We were both useless beasts who had awakened their beast forms in the past. However, he was just like me and refused to become useless. The same experience made us sympathize with each other. We understood each other the most. Naturally, we became lovers…”
Yu Huang picked up her hat and put it on her head. She interrupted her coldly, “I’m not interested in your affairs.”
Su Tingxue was speechless.
After a long while, she continued, “If you want to become a Level 10 Purifying Spirit Master, you have to rely on my help. Apart from me, no one in this world knows the requirements to become a Level 10 Purifying Spirit Master!”
Yu Huang smiled disdainfully. “Even if you lean on a mountain, it might fall. Even if you rely on people, they might betray you. It’s difficult to cultivate. Instead of counting on others, you might as well rely on yourself. Save yourself the trouble and shut your mouth. Don’t be cocky. If you annoy me, I’ll crush you to death directly.”
Su Tingxue did not expect Yu Huang to be so stubborn. She was enraged and wanted to scold her for being stupid. She knew that there was a shortcut, but she insisted on struggling herself.
Apart from being angry, Su Tingxue admired Yu Huang even more. Yu Huang reminded her of herself back then, who refused to accept her fate.
They were the same kind of people, but Yu Huang was more clear-headed than her. If she had been as clear-headed and rational as Yu Huang back then, she would not have ended up like that.
…
Yu Huang arrived at the bottom of the estate and did not find any trace of Yu Rufeng. She walked to the tree that that person had stayed under and looked up at it.
After becoming a Purifying Spirit Master, one could attempt to communicate with all things in the world. The lower one’s ability was, the lower the level of the creature one could communicate with.
Plants were the lowest ranked creatures.
The tree in front of her was a maple tree that had lived for more than thirty years. Autumn had just arrived, and the leaves had already begun to turn red. Yu Huang placed her palm on the trunk of the maple tree and closed her eyes to engage in soul communication with it.
“Hello, guardian tree spirit. I’m Yu Huang, who lives in the neighborhood.”
The tree began to stir. After a moment, its leaves began to move even without wind. Yu Huang recalled the maple tree’s voice. It was a very strange sound wave, but Yu Huang could understand its language.
“Hello, human.”
Seeing that the soul communication was successful, Yu Huang was happy.
She quickly calmed down and asked the Maple Tree Spirit, “A few minutes ago, a man stood beside you for a few minutes. I want to know where he went and what he was thinking.”
The Maple Tree Spirit suddenly trembled. It shouted in a frightened tone, “He’s filled with killing intent and evilness. He wants to do something terrifying. He’s walking out of the estate.”
The weak and innocent tree spirits were most afraid of the evil intentions of humans.
Seeing that the tree spirit was trembling in fear, Yu Huang hurriedly injected her psychic energy into the tree trunk to comfort it. Only then did the tree trunk return to normal.
After bidding farewell to the tree spirit, Yu Huang took out a wide-angle recording camera from her storage device. She turned it on and quietly put it into the storage device. Then, she walked out of the estate.
The moment Yu Huang walked out of the estate, she saw Yu Rufeng.
Yu Rufeng was obviously waiting for her specially. After seeing her, he rushed up and held Yu Huang’s hand enthusiastically. He said to her, “Ah Huang, long time no see. I missed you very much.”
The way he called her Ah Huang made Yu Huang feel disgusted.
If it was the original owner of the body, if Yu Huang saw Yu Rufeng taking the initiative to express goodwill, she might still be merciful, but Yu Huang wouldn’t.
Yu Huang looked at Yu Rufeng coldly and said, “There’s nothing much to talk about between us. Don’t think about me. That will only make me feel that you’re putting on an act.”
She paused and added, “Don’t think about my money either..”
