After returning to the sect, Noah introduced Zhong Hua to everyone present. The girls were eager to get to know the two won, while Tian Heng and Yuan Ming appeared a bit dejected.
"Are those two unhappy to see here?" Zhong Hua could also sense their dissatisfaction with the help of her eyes, even when they greeted her with smiles.
"Don't mind them; they are just n being n!" Ma Li snorted coldly, looking at the two young n in disdain.
"Don't be so harsh, Sister Ma," Jiang Shi shook her head in disapproval. "Their reaction is only natural. After all, in the whole sect, they are the only two n of similar age. They also wanted a junior brother."
"So they are just sad that I am not a boy."
"Don't take it to heart. I am sure that even then, they would still treat you with love, Junior Sister." Seeing the warm smile on Jiang Shi's face, Zhong Hua also smiled. She could tell that those two did not an any harm.
The warm feeling she was receiving from everyone in the sect made her feel at ho.
...
"Elder Noah!" On the other side, Noah found his feet being trapped by two young n as he was about to make his way towards his cultivation room.
"What do you two want now?" With a long sigh, he looked down at the two young n holding his feet and asked softly.
"We want n!" Tian Heng did not even think before exclaiming loudly, almost crawling up Noah's leg.
Boom!
The only response he got was a leg to the stomach that sent him flying. Noah looked down at Yuan Ming with a dark look on his face, scaring the boy even more.
"Wait! He did not an that!" Yuan Ming also shivered when he heard Tian Heng's words and hurriedly backed away from Noah, or else he would receive the sa fate as his idiot friend.
"What he ant was that we want a junior brother too! If this goes on, the female disciples will take over the sect and bully us," Yuan Ming explained with a slight blush on his face.
He knew it was childish, but it would be better if he had a junior brother who was not like the dumb prince who didn't even know what to say.
"Yesh..." Tian Heng also crawled up from the ground hearing his words and nodded his head in support. "Je wan... Eqkuality."
With his swollen face, he uttered jumbled words that Noah did not even bother to understand.
"Do you think I look for female disciples specifically?" Noah simply asked them randomly, but seeing the guilty look on their faces as they looked away left him speechless.
"We did not..." Tian Heng tried to defend himself, but he did not even sound convincing to himself.
"..." Noah simply stared at them coldly before preparing to walk away.
"Wait, wait! We were wrong! Please, we really need so guys in here!" Seeing Noah walking away, Tian Heng moved to stop him in panic.
Noah exhaled, seeing their desperation, and shook his head. "I will keep an eye out for soone, but to be honest, even if I et soone with good enough talent, their personality annoys ."
Yuan Ming paused and nodded in understanding, hearing his words. In their world, people were very egoistic and arrogant. Be it n or won, the more talent they had, the more annoying their personality was.
The only exception he had seen in his life were the people in his current sect. Despite their talents, they cared for others around them without looking down on anyone.
"I don't want this sect to be trashed by annoying people." Noah took a step forward to leave after saying another, "But I will look out for more talents, especially so junior brothers for you."
Noah did not linger any more and disappeared from the garden. Tian Heng slumped on the ground, looking at the moving clouds in the sky. "Why am I the only one who has to go through things like these?"
Yuan Ming rolled his eyes, but there was a smile on his face.
...
Noah reappeared in front of Xin Yan's room. Her room was a single room like the rest of the disciples. It was a room with several adjacent rooms attached to it. So were not even touched by her, while so she had been using for different things.
"Wu Ping, are you sure you want to do this? It will hurt you since you have never done this kind of thing." As soon as he entered the room, he heard vague voices coming from the backyard.
He easily recognized it as Xin Yan. Noah paused in his tracks for a second before walking again once more. He opened the back door in the room, leading to the backyard, and saw Xin Yan and Wu Ping standing beside each other in the open yard while her child, Wu He, was also seated on the ground in a ditative position.
"Master Noah!" Startled by Noah's sudden appearance, Wu Ping jerked a little, but she composed herself before bowing to greet him.
Noah nodded at her greeting with a warm smile on his face. "What happened?"
"I am preparing to guide her body cultivation with the help of dicinal baths and training, but I have to make sure she understands what she is getting into," Xin Yan replied with a smile.
"I understand the risks, Lady Xin, but please don't waste the precious herbs on . As long as you help get stronger, I will be grateful to you." Dressed in her maid outfit, Wu Ping shook her head.
"This is helping you get stronger. Besides, these herbs are only collecting dust in my collection." Before her maid could retort even more, she added, "Besides, I am not giving them to you for free. I am using them on you so you can serve to the best of your abilities."
"...Don't worry, Miss. I will serve you with everything I've got." After hearing her last words, the hesitation in Wu Ping's heart vanished. She deeply bowed while saying those words, causing her bouncy black hair to fall over her shoulders.
"Did I do it?" Just then, a childish voice broke the somber atmosphere, causing everyone to look at him.
