She was a mere Level 9 Spiritual Grandmaster at the moment, not even a Spiritual Elder yet. The difference in their capability was too big…
Chaoge smacked her own head in frustration.
“It’s all my fault! I haven’t practiced hard enough! I’m too slow! I —”
Feng Wu immediately stopped the silly girl and forted her. “What are you doing? You’re already a Level 9 Spiritual Grandmaster; you’re so close to being a Spiritual Elder. If you can use this opportunity well, being a Spiritual Elder won’t be a problem for you at all.
“Just think about it. How fast have you been making progress since we met? No one else can do the same thing, right? It’s the same for both of us; we wasted a lot of time in the past five years.
“Chaoge, you have to believe this: Given enough time, we’ll rise to the top again. When that happens, no one will pick on us ever again. That’s when I’ll need your protection. Alright?”
Encouraged by Feng Wu, Chaoge took her hand and said solemnly, “Xiao Wu, have faith in me! I’ll work as hard as I can in my cultivation, no matter how much hardship I’ll have to endure. I’ll bee so awesome one day that I’ll be able to protect you from all the bad guys!”
Feng Wu said, “Yes.”
Feng Xun couldn’t stand it anymore. “Hey, both of you, that’s enough. Plus, Duan Chaoge, you don’t need to worry at all. With Boss Jun around, no one will pick on Feng Wu.”
Chaoge flared up when Jun Linyuan was mentioned.
“No one can pick on Xiao Wu when His Royal Highness is around? Then why did Sefiro mistreat her?”
Feng Xun said, “Well…”
Chaoge said, “Plus, he was the reason for it! He’s like this big flashy flower that attracts all sorts of bees and butterflies!”
Feng Xun said, “Well…”
Chaoge then took Feng Wu’s hand. “Xiao Wu, His Royal Highness is unreliable. Can you maybe not fall in love with him?”
Feng Xun said, “Hey, Duan Chaoge —”
While Feng Xun was feeling frustrated, Chaoge looked at Feng Wu with great anticipation. Feng Wu was speechless.
She looked at the two people in resignation.
“Who told you I’m in love with Jun Linyuan?” asked Feng Wu.
“Because you’re always going to him,” said Chaoge grumpily.
Feng Xun raised an eyebrow. “See? Even Chaoge is saying that. I’m not lying, right?”
Feng Wu rolled her eyes. “I’m not always going to Jun Linyuan! I have my reasons!”
“Really? What might they be?” Feng Xun winked at her.
He loved teasing Feng Wu, especially when she got riled up.
What reasons? Feng Wu rolled her eyes at him again.
She couldn’t reveal her broken star piece mission, which could save her beautiful master. Even if she could tell them, no one would believe her.
“Well —” Feng Wu heaved a long sigh.
Feng Xun smiled. “See? You can’t find an excuse now. Gosh, why is it so difficult for you to admit that you like Boss Jun?”
Chaoge also looked at Feng Wu with a serious expression.
Feng Wu shook her head. “I don’t. I definitely won’t fall in love with Jun Linyuan! Never!”
“Ahem —”
Someone cleared their throat a short distance away.
Immediately, everyone turned to look.
A chill ran down Feng Xun’s spine when he saw who it was, because his aloof, graceful Boss Jun was standing right there. His inky black eyes were as cold as the night and were two bottomless pits.
His face was equally dark.
