“Yes, I clearly spent more time with Junior Brother, yet he only has eyes for Master!”
“Master, why is this? Do you have any idea?”
Su Ling'er also grew bolder, speaking whatever came to mind.
As soon as the words “only has eyes for” left her lips, a faint blush covered Luo Huangjun’s exquisite face.
She glared at Su Ling'er.
This silly disciple, she shouldn't have kept her here.
At the same time, she secretly checked her own panel.
Seeing the favorability had reached 79 points, she became even more flustered.
She glanced at Tantai Jinglian and Su Ling'er again.
The former was 64 points before, and now it had barely increased by a pitiful one point, reaching 65 points.
As for her own disciple, thanks to these days spent with Chu Ge, her favorability had unknowingly reached 69 points.
But, compared to herself, it was still far behind!
This was getting dangerous!
If it increased any further, it would reach the level of infatuation.
If Chu Ge really made that so-called move on his Master, how would she… respond?
Should she avoid him, or gently refuse?
Or perhaps…
No! She couldn't think about it anymore!
Feeling her state of mind begin to waver again, Luo Huangjun immediately stopped her thoughts from wandering further.
Luo Huangjun didn't realize that upon sensing this unusual inclination, she only considered avoidance or a gentle refusal, not even a firmer thought.
Nor did she ever consider stopping this inclination or nipping it in the bud, to prevent it from developing in a worse direction in the future.
“Shijie, you’re overthinking it. It’s just living together in Taihuang Hall; it naturally became like this. I didn’t do anything extra.”
“After all, I am his Master. It’s normal for him to trust me more. Don’t overthink it, both of you.”
Luo Huangjun explained with a serious demeanor.
Then, without waiting for their reactions, she said,
“If there’s nothing else, you may all disperse. I’m going to Cultivate.”
She spoke coldly, trying her best to maintain her usual aloof image.
But the faint blush still lingering on her adorable earlobes mercilessly betrayed her.
After Luo Huangjun left, only Su Ling'er and Tantai Jinglian remained.
Facing the bad woman alone made Su Ling'er recall some unpleasant past memories.
Memories of being teased by Tantai Jinglian in various ways began to play in her mind, and she couldn't help but feel a chill.
“Ha, Shibo (Senior Martial Aunt), I’m going to Cultivate too!”
She forced a smile, and as soon as she finished speaking, she was about to leave.
“Wait.”
At these words, Su Ling'er’s heart instantly skipped a beat.
“Hehe, what are Shibo’s (Senior Martial Aunt)’s orders?”
She responded in a deep voice, feeling a sense of facing death bravely.
“Ling'er Shizhi, did you forget something?”
Seeing Su Ling'er’s wary expression, Tantai Jinglian’s playful mood surged.
A signature mischievous smile appeared on her face, her voice languid with a hint of magnetism.
Su Ling'er was very familiar with this smile; she had seen it many times before.
With light lotus steps, Tantai Jinglian had already arrived beside Su Ling'er.
Her fiery red eyes scanned up and down, making Su Ling'er shiver.
She felt small, pitiful, and helpless at that moment.
“What… what is it? Please tell me clearly, Shibo (Senior Martial Aunt).”
A smile uglier than a cry appeared on her face.
“Of course, it’s…”
Tantai Jinglian leaned closer, and Su Ling'er’s heart beat faster and faster, feeling as if something terrible was about to happen the next second, her heart almost leaping into her throat.
The next moment.
“Let’s add each other as friends.”
With a buzzing sound, Su Ling'er felt her mind instantly go blank.
“Huh?”
She instinctively questioned.
“Huh what? Of course, it’s to add friends. I’ve already sent the request, Xiao Ling'er, remember to accept it.”
Tantai Jinglian left with a joyful smile on her face and graceful steps after saying that.
Su Ling'er was left standing there, her face a mess of bewilderment.
It took her a long while to snap back to reality, realizing she had been played. Su Ling'er snarled a devilish whisper, “Bad woman! I’m at war with you!”
................
Meanwhile, after Chu Ge returned to his room, he was about to Cultivate when he heard a sudden notification from the System.
“Ding! Due to the Host’s actions, the Child of Destiny ***’s close associate, Luo Feipeng, has died. Congratulations to the Host for gaining 3000 Villain Points.”
Just as Chu Ge was wondering, the notification sounded three more times in succession.
“Ding! Due to the Host’s actions… Luo Qingyu has died. Congratulations to the Host for gaining 7000 Villain Points.”
“Ding! Due to the Host’s actions… Luo Tianhai has died. Congratulations to the Host for gaining 15000 Villain Points.”
“Ding! The Child of Destiny ***’s forces have been weakened, and his destiny has been lost. Congratulations to the Host for gaining 10000 Villain Points.”
Chu Ge was first startled, then delighted.
A total of 35,000 Villain Points had just fallen into his hands.
This unknown Child of Destiny, whom he had never met, was truly generous!
Looking at the Villain Points on his System panel, which had already accumulated to over sixty thousand, Chu Ge was quite pleased. Another twenty thousand, and it would be enough to upgrade the diary section again.
Upgrading to Level 4 would unlock new functions.
Suppressing the urge to exploit Ye Chen, Chu Ge began to ponder the source of these Villain Points.
After a brief thought, Chu Ge had a guess.
This unknown Child of Destiny must be a member of the Luo Family and have a deep connection with Luo Feipeng and the other two.
Perhaps even the plot to seize the huanglong seal was inextricably linked to this person.
And because this matter involved him, leading to the demise of these three Luo Family members who were close to the Child of Destiny, this series of Villain Point rewards was generated.
As for why these Villain Points were not issued immediately, it was likely because the unknown Child of Destiny was not aware of it right away.
Now it seems that the news has returned to the Luo Family, and the other party has learned of the matter.
‘I’ll deal with it after I take care of Ye Chen.’
Chu Ge had no intention of confronting two Children of Destiny at the same time.
The Luo Family’s Child of Destiny was currently in the shadows, while he was in the open.
Waiting for the other party to reveal themselves was the best strategy.
As for whether the other party would actively jump into his sight, Chu Ge was not worried at all.
If they suffered a loss and didn't retaliate, they wouldn't be called a Child of Destiny.
Moreover, without obtaining the huanglong seal this time and having lost several high-ranking clan members, the Luo Family would certainly not give up so easily.
In the future, they would definitely make more plans for the huanglong seal.
Perhaps before long, that Child of Destiny would emerge from the shadows and appear in Chu Ge’s sight.
Thinking of this, Chu Ge also became vigilant.
Although he was currently in Taihuang Holy Land, protected by Luo Huangjun, a Holy Lord-level figure, he could remain safe and sound.
However, an open spear is easy to dodge, but a hidden arrow is hard to guard against. While Luo Huangjun was strong, she was not invincible.
In this initial stage, it was fine to lie low. But once he became powerful, Chu Ge still preferred to personally solve problems and deal with those who caused them.
