Chapter 1333: Who Are You Calling a Pig?
Ning Shu didn’t follow the proper stages of cultivation of first setting her foundation, then forming her golden core, and afterwards working towards the soul formation stage.
Ning Shu found that the Unsurpassable Martial Arts was a lot more powerful than any other cultivation technique. Her dantian could hold a lot of spiritual energy, and this spiritual energy would gradually accumulate until it formed a golden coiling dragon.
Moreover, this golden dragon was vivid and realistic, as if it had its own consciousness.
Ning Shu really wanted to release her spiritual energy and see how powerful this coiling dragon made of spiritual energy was.
But all of Tranquil Peak was under Lord Qing Hua’s supervision, so Ning Shu didn’t dare to take any risks.
However, even now, 2333 still had not found the reason why her cultivation speed was so fast. It was as if she was using cheats.
Every time Ning Shu cultivated, she wanted to cry. Why was this happening? Was there a bug in this world?
Whenever Ning Shu didn’t have anything to do, she stayed in her room. She rarely appeared in front of Lord Qing Hua. She felt that she still couldn’t beat Lord Qing Hua with her current ability.
And Lord Qing Hua was the world’s darling. His cultivation speed could only get faster and never slow down.
Ning Shu could only cultivate harder.
“Immortal Xiao, Lord Qing Hua wants you to go to the main hall,” said a child that was standing outside Ning Shu’s room.
Ning Shu’s heart jumped. She had a bad feeling in her heart, but still tidied up her clothes and opened the door.
Ning Shu arrived at the main hall to see Lord Qing Hua rap Yu Linger’s head with his folding fan as he said, “Wrong. This skill isn’t performed like this. Was your brain eaten by a pig?”
Yu Linger’s face crumpled up. “My brain was eaten by you. If you hit me on the head again, I’ll really lose all my brain cells.”
“Who are you calling a pig?” Lord Qing Hua rapped Yu Linger’s head again.
Yu Linger was huffing with rage. She looked like she wanted to just bite him.
Lord Qing Hua saw Ning Shu standing in the doorway and stopped smiling. “Come in.”
Ning Shu then stepped over the doorstep and walked in.
Yu Linger saluted Ning Shu. “Senior sister.”
Ning Shu returned the salute. “Junior sister.”
“Go water the flowers. You’re not allowed to use your cultivation. Remember to fetch the water from the waterfall. You’re also not allowed to get a child to help you,” said Lord Qing Hua to Yu Linger.
Yu Linger’s expression immediately collapsed. She stomped her feet and turned away, walking away like a fluttering butterfly.
“It’s been almost a month since you came to Tranquil Peak. How do you feel?” asked Lord Qing Hua as he waved his hand to close the door.
When Ning Shu saw Lord Qing Hua close the door, she became even more apprehensive. Her body tensed warily.
“This disciple is dull, so progress is slow,” Ning Shu said.
“Ah…” Lord Qing Hua smiled. “Out of my two disciples, your improvement is the best. The rate at which your room has been absorbing spiritual energy is comparable to me at my soul formation stage.”
Ning Shu’s frowned. As she had expected, Lord Qing Hua had been keeping an eye on her.
Each and every one of her moves were under his watch.
Lord Qing Hua poured a cup of tea infused with spiritual energy, his movements smooth and graceful. Then he picked up the white porcelain teacup to take a sip.
The atmosphere was tense.
Drops of sweat were rolling down Ning Shu’s back. It seemed Lord Qing Hua was about to lay his cards on the table.
Lord Qing Hua put down his teacup and said lightly, “Since you are now my disciple, then as a pair of master and disciple, we can be considered to be on the same side. What’s your purpose in coming to Immortal Sect?”
Ning Shu secretly mobilized the spiritual energy in her dantian. When she heard Lord Qing Hua’s words, she pressed her lips together and said nothing.
