Chapter 772: Senior Brother is Too Amazing

~7 min read 1,364 words

Wen Ya was closing her eyes in quiet meditation when a slight movement suddenly came from beside her.

She opened her eyes and discovered that Wan Guiyuan, who had originally been sitting cross-legged behind her, had somehow crept to her side and was now sitting cross-legged shoulder-to-shoulder with her.

The two were very close, their shoulders almost touching.

She could even feel the warmth radiating from Wan Guiyuan.

What made her feel even more uneasy was that Wan Guiyuan was staring straight at her without even blinking.

A look of discomfort flashed across her face, "Junior Brother Wan, what are you looking at? Is there something wrong with my face?"

Wang Jianqiang smiled upon hearing this, "Senior Sister Wen, I have discovered that you are somewhat different from the rumors."

Wen Ya was startled, a surge of curiosity rising in her heart, "What kind of person am I in the rumors?"

Wang Jianqiang thought seriously for a moment, "It is rumored that Senior Sister Wen is aloof and cold, shows no courtesy to anyone, and is very difficult to approach."

Hearing this, Wen Ya could not help but secretly smile bitterly.

So that was it.

In truth, she very much wished to be like an ordinary Disciple and make some friends, but she was not good with words and was naturally cold-natured; she had not expected this to cause such a great misunderstanding among outsiders.

No wonder so few people had approached her over these many years.

Even those who did approach would leave in embarrassment after exchanging only a few sparse words.

So this was the image she held in the eyes of others.

She looked at "Wan Guiyuan" with curiosity, "Then how did you dare to propose traveling together with me? You and I have had no contact before; aren't you afraid I might teach you a lesson?"

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Because I can see that Senior Sister is actually not a truly cold person."

Wen Ya was stunned, "How did you see that?"

Wang Jianqiang smiled slightly, "Senior Sister appears cold, but when conversing with Senior Brother Yuan Xiuya, you answered every one of his inquiries very earnestly; this is not something a person with a cold nature would do."

"Just that simple?" A look of surprise appeared on Wen Ya's face.

"Just that simple."

Wang Jianqiang secretly checked the Attribute Panel of Wen Ya in his mind, specifically the Good and Evil Value column.

He smiled triumphantly to himself.

10 points of Good and Evil Value.

Normally, the Good and Evil Value for a stranger one has never met should be 0 points.

Yet Wen Ya's initial Good and Evil Value toward him was 10 points.

As far as he knew, by the time Wan Guiyuan became a Core Disciple, Wen Ya had already successfully reached Spirit Transformation and had transcended the category of ordinary Disciples; the two had never had any contact at all.

Which meant.

The 10 points of Good and Evil Value were not because he was being treated specially by Wen Ya.

Rather, it was because Wen Ya harbored goodwill toward all Disciples of the Beast Taming Sect.

This point was enough to prove that Wen Ya was not as cold as she appeared on the surface.

This was the real reason he dared to strike up a conversation directly.

Wen Ya did not know that the person before her was a cheater, and after seeing "Wan Guiyuan" nod confidently, she did not harbor the slightest suspicion.

A bit more amazement appeared in her gaze as she looked at "Wan Guiyuan".

To judge her personality based solely on a few simple words exchanged with Yuan Xiuya—this Wan Guiyuan's observational skills were simply terrifying.

"Junior Brother Wan's ability to read people is truly impressive."

Wen Ya could not help but sigh with emotion, "I won't hide it from you, Junior Brother; I actually really want to integrate with the Disciples of the Beast Taming Sect, but because of my personality, I haven't been able to make a single friend until now."

"I am actually very happy that you were able to take the initiative to approach me and befriend me."

"Befriend? Senior Sister has misunderstood."

Wang Jianqiang shook his head.

Wen Ya was stunned.

Just then, the voice of "Wan Guiyuan" rang out again, "I did not approach you, Senior Sister, because I wanted to befriend you, but because I want to woo you."

At the very moment these simple, direct words that hit the point were spoken.

A look of admiration immediately welled up in Mu Lingxi's eyes as she looked at Wang Jianqiang.

Senior Brother's way of speaking is still so stunningly powerful.

It is truly so charming!

After being dazed for a moment, Wen Ya's pretty face turned completely red.

In the sect, even those genius Disciples did not dare to get close to her.

Even the few top Core Disciples like Yuan Xiuya who dared to speak a few words to her were always cautious; when had anyone ever dared to be so blunt?

"Jun~ Junior Brother~"

"How can you be like this?"

Wen Ya looked at "Wan Guiyuan" with her mouth agape, feeling somewhat at a loss, her speech even becoming stuttered.

Wang Jianqiang smiled candidly, "Senior Sister Wen Ya can be called the strongest heaven-gifted talent of our Beast Taming Sect since its founding; you are beautiful, have a slender waist and long legs, and a great figure—who wouldn't like you?"

"I just don't like to hide my thoughts and spoke the truth, so I hope Senior Sister Wen Ya will not take offense."

Wen Ya was startled.

Seeing that "Wan Guiyuan's" eyes were clear and contained not a shred of evil intent, the anger in her heart gradually subsided.

However, her shyness did not fade in the slightest, and she shook her head with a flushed face, "Junior Brother Wan, it is truly rare to see someone as bold in love and hate as you; I find myself somewhat envious of your personality."

"What I want is not your envy, Senior Sister." Wang Jianqiang chuckled.

Wen Ya's complexion turned even redder, and she shook her head, "I don't know you, and I have always made cultivation my goal; I have no thoughts of finding a Dao Companion."

Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted, "If I could help you in your cultivation, Senior Sister, could you consider it?"

Wen Ya was stunned for a moment, then shook her head, "It is not that I look down on you, Junior Brother, but with your abilities, I fear you cannot help me."

"That is not necessarily true."

Wang Jianqiang chuckled, "Just tell me, Senior Sister, if I can provide you with great help in your cultivation, will you agree or not?"

Seeing "Wan Guiyuan" so persistent, Wen Ya nodded helplessly and said, "If you can truly do that one day, Junior Brother, I can consider it."

"It's a deal."

Wang Jianqiang laughed.

When Wang Jianqiang returned to Mu Lingxi's side, Mu Lingxi looked at Wang Jianqiang, her beautiful eyes filled with admiration, "Senior Brother, you are too amazing."

"Just a basic operation."

Wang Jianqiang grinned, speaking with nonchalance.

……

Time passed in a hurry.

In the blink of an eye, two months had passed since the three of them left the Beast Taming Sect.

During these two months, although Wen Ya had been traveling at a steady, unhurried pace.

Her speed still far exceeded that of an ordinary Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, and she successfully arrived outside a city near the place where the Earth Veins converged.

"The Earth Vein Stele is on the summit of that large mountain thirty miles away."

Wen Ya pointed to a large mountain in the distance and said to "Wan Guiyuan" and "Lu Xiu", "One month from now, on the day the Spirit Ranking Battle begins, Earth Vein Qi will soar into the sky from within the Earth Vein Stele, and the strange sound will last for an entire day; you only need to head to where the Earth Vein Stele is located to join the battle then."

"Before that, just stay in this city and conserve your energy."
