"well……"
Xue Jinli felt that the main reason why she could not become a master was that she did not work hard enough. If she worked harder, her cultivation would be improved. Not to mention surpassing her master, she would at least surpass her senior sister. If her cultivation surpassed her senior sister, she would be a real devil and would not flee in fear just because her senior sister drew her sword.
Of course there is another reason...
Xue Jinli looked down and could not only see the toes, but also the entire foot. She felt that in the entire Ziyun Tower, she was the only one in this situation. The others were more outrageous than the other, especially Xiao Beifeng. How she wished that she could be on par with Xiao Beifeng. In that case, both of them would have a mind as vast as that of swallowing up mountains and rivers and as vast as the sea of clouds.
In fact, there is a technique that can change one's body shape, but Xue Jinli does not want to practice it because she cannot show that she cares too much. The more she cares, the more she has to act like she doesn't care.
Besides, if it really became easier, would she still be Xue Jinli?
The most crucial thing is that this kind of practice has its drawbacks. How can the acquired knowledge compare to the innate knowledge? This is the real reason why she doesn't want to practice this kind of practice.
'How is this not a characteristic?'
'This is a unique characteristic of Xue Jinli!'
Xue Jinli silently comforted herself in her heart, at least apart from this characteristic, she was not bad in other aspects.
She squatted in the pavilion for a while, looking up from time to time, hoping that the master would appear in her sight. However, after waiting for a long time, she did not see the master. Instead, she waited for the jumping Yaoyao and Yaoyao's aunt.
Although she didn't know Yaoyao's aunt and had never met her, she could still tell each other's identities based on their appearance.
'Wait, Yaoyao's aunt has come in, where is the master? '
Just as Xue Jinli was muttering to herself, the sharp-eyed Yaoyao noticed Xue Jinli's presence, and hurriedly pulled her aunt to Xue Jinli and greeted her:
"Senior Sister Jinli, let me introduce you. This is my aunt, Tushan Xinya!"
"Aunt, this is my third sister, Xue Jinli, who likes to slack off..."
Fishing?
It’s been such a long time since she last slacked off!
During this period of time, she has been studying hard and practicing diligently, and she has never stopped practicing. In order to successfully become a master, she almost gave up her hobby of slacking off.
And how could Yaoyao tell her aunt that she liked to slack off? This would have a very bad influence...
Xue Jinli's face was fierce as he stared at Yaoyao's erect ears. He really wanted to pinch them, but thinking that Yaoyao's elders were there, he decided not to bully her. He then retracted his gaze and looked at Tushan Xinya, saying with a smile:
"Hello, Auntie Yaoyao, you and Yaoyao look so much alike, as if you were cut from the same mold."
"Maybe it's because Yaoyao has been with me since he was a child, so he looks a bit like me."
Tushan Xinya, looking a little tired, responded with a faint smile.
Tushan Yaoyao tilted her head and stared at Xue Jinli for a while, feeling a little strange, and asked:
"By the way, Senior Sister Jinli, I saw you hiding here just now, what were you doing? Could it be..."
Xue Jinli's heart tightened and cold sweat almost broke out on her forehead. She was afraid that Yaoyao would say something that a child shouldn't hear. After all, Yaoyao's aunt was still here, and she didn't want to die on the spot.
"Sister Jinli, are you playing hide-and-seek by yourself? It's too boring to be alone, why don't you take me with you!"
Tushan Yaoyao came close to Xue Jinli, her big cute eyes sparkling as she looked at Xue Jinli expectantly.
Xue Jinli heaved a sigh of relief, his anxious heart slightly relieved, and said:
"I wasn't playing hide-and-seek, I was just daydreaming!"
"daze?"
Tushan Yaoyao was still very smart. She knew that being in a daze was another name for slacking off, and she did not expose her. After all, she had just noticed that Senior Sister Koi wanted to pull her ears. In order to save her ears, she decided not to rub salt into the wound.
Tushan Xinya glanced at Xue Jinli meaningfully. She could tell that the other party was just trying to be perfunctory. Combining his actions just now with her own personal experience, she knew very well that this was another disciple who had evil intentions towards Brother Xu. He was looking for an opportunity but was interrupted by them by accident.
It wasn't really a disturbance. After all, Brother Xu had already left Qingming Sect, saying that he had something urgent to deal with.
Tushan Xinya did not inquire about this, but it meant that the third disciple of Ziyun Peak who wanted to become a master was doomed to fail.
"Okay, Senior Sister Jinli, you continue to be in a daze. I will take my aunt to find a place to live and practice."
Tushan Yaoyao waved towards Xue Jinli.
Tushan Xinya nodded slightly to Xue Jinli and was about to leave with Yaoyao.
"etc."
Xue Jinli stopped the two people, one big and one small.
She felt that it was not a good idea to just sit there and wait like this, so she decided to first get some information about her master from the two of them and then make other plans.
Just adapt to circumstances.
Tushan Yaoyao and Tushan Xinya turned their heads at the same time. Tushan Xinya did not speak, but Tushan Yaoyao showed doubt in her eyes:
"What's wrong? Senior Sister Koi."
"Ahem, it's okay. I just want to ask where the master is. I'm confused about my practice and I want the master to help me solve it."
Xue Jinli cleared his throat, found a common excuse, and asked with a smile.
"Are you confused about your practice?"
Tushan Yaoyao pushed her aunt forward and said:
"You don't need Master. My aunt is in the Mahayana realm. She can definitely help you, Senior Sister Jinli, solve your confusions in cultivation!"
Tushan Xinya knew that Xue Jinli had other intentions, but Yaoyao was still young and didn't understand many things. She couldn't explain it to her directly now. She could only bite the bullet and look at Xue Jinli, her eyes somewhat helpless:
"Yaoyao is right. If you have any confusion in your practice, you can ask me. I will tell you everything I know."
Xue Jinli's expression almost froze. That wasn't her intention. She just wanted to ask where her master was so she could go and get him... Facing the gaze of Aunt Yaoyao, she found that she really wanted to help her solve her confusion. She almost got drunk on the spot. After brainstorming for a while, she finally found an excuse in her mind that was neither offensive nor unreasonable to look for her master:
"Aunt Yaoyao, are you good at formations?"
“Not very good at it.”
Tushan Xinya shook her head and told the truth.
"Then there is no other way. I specialize in the art of formations. Aunt Yaoyao, you probably can't help me solve my doubts. I can only go find my master. Please tell me where my master is."
Although the map of Yan State was very long, Xue Jinli finally reached the correct location after some twists and turns.
"Brother Xu, he's out and is not in Qingming Sect now."
Tushan Xinya looked at Xue Jinli, feeling inexplicably sympathetic.
? !
Xue Jinli's eyes froze, his expression suddenly solidified, his body stiffened, as if struck by lightning, his heart, which had been hanging in the balance, now completely died.
She missed it again!!!
