"..."
As he spoke, he stepped backward out of the thatched cottage. Watching the curling corners of the two won's mouths, he nodded, closed the door, and left.
A mont later, Su Bei suddenly flung open the door of the thatched cottage.
The two won still wore smiles, looking at each other before turning sweetly to Su Bei, the picture of sisterly affection. They asked with curiosity, "Master, what's the matter?"
Su Bei looked at them with a puzzled expression and murmured to himself, Could I have been mistaken?
But this is good, as long as they don't start fighting!
"Um, I forgot to ntion, rember to close the windows when you sleep at night. Don't catch a cold..."
With a light cough, Su Bei quickly turned and slipped out of the thatched cottage. He eagerly headed to the little pigsty house he had built for himself to check on the treasures the system had given him.
Like that worn-out bellyband... Ahem, no, it's that Cold Pool Linglong Pearl which clearly has a great use...
Inside the thatched cottage, the two won still looked obedient.
Ti passed. Sharing a knowing smile, as if by so silent accord, Mo Li spoke, her own smile in place, "Senior Sister, has Master left?"
Xiao Ruoching fluttered her eyelashes. Bathed in the dappled moonlight, her smile was captivating as she replied, "Yes, he's really gone this ti."
"..."
Their smiles gradually faded, and then both won looked at each other with impassive expressions. —Such a touching display of sisterly affection.
Silence descended.
Xiao Ruoching sized Mo Li up, a cold smirk playing on her lips as she said coolly, "Little Sister Mo, you're quite the scher."
"You didn't miss out on the apprenticeship or the Creation Pill..."
Mo Li gazed coldly at Xiao Ruoching, saying nothing.
The atmosphere in the thatched cottage instantly grew tense!
Mo Li stood up, her body tensing subtly beneath her clothes. Her eyes were calm as she said, "What are you talking about, Senior Sister? Mo Li doesn't understand."
Xiao Ruoching lightly brushed a strand of her dark hair with slender fingers. Her gaze fixed on Mo Li before her, her voice crisp and icy as she began her analysis, speaking as if to herself, "You've gauged Master's temperant perfectly, knowing he wouldn't refuse if you asked to beco his disciple openly! Compared to Elder Xi, our Master is inferior in status, identity, and cultivation. I simply cannot understand your motive for becoming his disciple. You're the type whose every action has a purpose. You definitely have designs on our Master. So, after much thought, the only thing that makes sense is the Creation Pill. You must have known in advance that Master possessed a Creation Pill..."
I understand Mo Li's temperant very well; everything she does is for a purpose.
She couldn't possibly be like , taking a Master with the intent of killing him. But I really can't fathom any other designs she might have on our Master. So, it must be for that Creation Pill!
Facing Xiao Ruoching's analysis, Mo Li's expression was like frost. Her lips curled into a mocking smile as she said coolly, "Senior Sister, you certainly think a lot!"
The way she bit out the words "Senior Sister" was heavy with aning.
I can't afford to appear weak in our first encounter, even if my cultivation is currently far inferior to hers.
"Senior Sister?" Xiao Ruoching's eyebrow arched. Looking at Mo Li's sarcastic expression, she said flatly, "I hardly deserve to be called 'Senior Sister' by the esteed young mistress of the Mo Family. I am not your Senior Sister, and you are not my Little Sister."
"Master may have accepted you and acknowledged you as his disciple, but I haven't."
"..."
Mo Li watched Xiao Ruoching, who looked as if "battle-ready" was written all over her face. Her own mouth twitched slightly. In this reincarnation, Xiao Ruoching is far more troubleso than I anticipated.
Then, taking a deep breath, Mo Li casually crossed her legs. Her eyes swept over Xiao Ruoching as she murmured, "Is Senior Sister perhaps taking herself a bit too seriously?"
"Or, to put it another way, what Mo Li ans is: does Senior Sister believe that for Mo Li to beco Elder Su's disciple, Mo Li must first have Senior Sister's approval?"
"..."
Xiao Ruoching's hands clenched into fists, her gaze fixed on the woman before her. Just as she was about to speak, Mo Li flashed a devious smile and continued, "You only beca a disciple a few days earlier than I did. What's with this 'Senior Sister' act?"
Her voice was soft, but her tone was heavy with insinuation.
Especially the way she savored the words "Senior Sister."
Xiao Ruoching felt her head about to explode with frustration. She gave Mo Li a cold glare, pushed open the door, paused, and then declared, "Just as I thought, I still don't like you!"
"..."
With that said, she quietly departed.
Beneath the moonlight, between heaven and earth, it was as if there was neither wind nor snow.
