Zhuo Yu’s personality was indeed pleasing, and coupled with the social skills she had honed in her previous life, after only a few months in Wushang Sect, most of the disciples in the sect knew about her and liked her very much.
In the past, Xuan Lei Peak was very quiet, because Qiong Hua and Long Feiran were out for training all year round, and Xuan Zhen liked quietness and often stayed in seclusion for several months or even decades. Apart from Ah Wu, a living person, there were only a few outer disciples left on Xuan Lei Peak who were there to do things.
At the beginning, Ah Wu also wanted to make friends with other sisters or brothers in the sect, but because she had no progress in cultivation, and because she was lucky enough to be accepted as a direct disciple by Xuan Zhen as soon as she transformed from a plant demon’s form, many disciples of Wushang Sect were jealous of her and disdained her. They just did not want to offend Xuan Zhen and others, so they were just hypocritically flattering her.
Ah Wu had a keen intuition. With the love of her master and senior brothers, she disdained such two-faced displays of goodwill.
When her senior brothers went down the mountain and her master went into seclusion, she could only be alone. She practiced most of the time and entertained herself for a small part.
But since Zhuo Yu came, Xuan Lei Peak suddenly became lively. Every day, senior brothers and sisters from other peaks came in and out, exchanging practice experiences and competing in magic. There was no shortage of laughter in Xuan Lei Peak.
Only Ah Wu was not happy at all. Zhuo Yu seemed to be able to please everyone, but Ah Wu’s intuition told her that she was not as harmless as she appeared. At least the warm eyes when she looked at her were cold in Ah Wu’s eyes. Therefore, she never participated in their joy and stayed in her own cave, becoming more and more withdrawn.
“Senior Sister Zhuo knows so much. I learned a lot from listening to her preaching before. She is obviously just the daughter of a casual cultivator, and her cultivation has only reached the Great Perfection of Foundation Building, but her understanding of Taoism has far surpassed many seniors in the Golden Elixir and Nascent Soul stages. No wonder Senior Uncle Qiong Hua and Senior Uncle Feiran like her so much.”
“Yes, if Uncle Master had accepted Sister Zhuo as his last disciple, our Wushang Sect would not have been ridiculed by other sects for Uncle Master’s poor judgment of people. It would have been fine if he had accepted a demon as his disciple, but she was a waste with dull qualifications and could not build a foundation after practicing for nearly a hundred years.”
Ah Wu sat in the tree as usual. This was her favorite position because she could see the path up the mountain from a distance. Sitting here, she was the first person to know when the Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother had returned from their training.
This has become her habit. Even though the Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother are now on Xuan Lei Peak, she still likes to sit on the tree after practicing, swinging her feet to look at the distant place.
Because the Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother were with the girl surnamed Zhuo, for Ah Wu, it was like they had gone down the mountain.
People on other peaks didn’t know her habits. In addition, although Ah Wu didn’t have much magic power, she had many self-defense treasures given by her master and senior brothers. Ordinary cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage couldn’t detect her breath at all. Therefore, the conversation of those people just now fell into Ah Wu’s ears.
“Hush, we are still on Xuan Lei Peak. Be careful that the plant demon might hear what we just said.”
Even though the Demon Realm and the Langhua Realm are living in peace now, the vast majority of people still agree with the saying that those who are not of our kind must be killed. In their view, even if plants and livestock develop intelligence, they are still different from humans.
“Okay, okay, let’s go quickly. I don’t know what interesting things Senior Sister Zhuo has come up with.”
The two cultivators talked and left in a hurry.
Ah Wu sat on the treetop with her hands on her cheeks; her eyes were a little empty and a little sad. This was not the first time she had heard such a conversation these days.
“Junior Sister, Junior Sister!”
A call came from afar, and the next second, a figure appeared on the treetops.
“I knew you were hiding here. The Eldest Senior Brother and I are on the mountain. What are you doing, looking at the path down the mountain?”
Long Feiran caressed the top of his junior sister’s head lovingly.
“Why haven’t you come to play with me these days? There’s a new guest on the mountain. Junior Sister Zhuo, as the Eldest Senior Brother said, is a very easy-going girl. After spending some time with her, you’ll fall in love with her.”
Long Feiran felt that the Eldest Senior Brother was right. The Junior Sister was still too lonely. After all, they and the master were all men. They had no idea what a little girl like Ah Wu liked. Moreover, when a girl reaches a certain age, she can only confide in people of the same sex. In this way, it is necessary for the Junior Sister to have closer friends.
At first, he approached Zhuo Yu with a tentative mind, but after a few days of getting along, Long Feiran was gradually attracted to her.
At first, he only felt that this girl was somewhat similar to Ah Wu in terms of spirit and agility, but as their relationship deepened, he deeply felt Zhuo Yu’s attentiveness and gentleness hidden under her cheerful appearance.
When he was with her, he always felt a comfortable feeling like being bathed in the spring breeze. This girl, who is both lively and quiet, may be the image of the most perfect girl in everyone’s eyes.
As he observed, Long Feiran had completely forgotten about his precious junior sister until just now. So he left the discussion meeting hosted by Zhuo Yu and came to find his Junior Sister Ah Wu.
He hoped that his junior sister could become friends with Zhuo Yu and learn some of her mature female qualities, instead of being so aggressive every day. Although she was cute, she could become a headache sometimes.

I will really appreciate it. ♥️♥️♥️

Ahhhh!!! Please tell me none of these people are the ML!!!! The elder brother thinks Ah Wu isn’t working hard enough, the second brother is ignorant (“Zhuo Yu is Ah Wu but less troublesome” is not a sane or good mentality to have!) and the master is nowhere to be seen! Where is the cute pampering of the previous arcs?!!
Orthez-san, please tell me that the story turns cute soon (╥﹏╥)

I’ve warned you all that it will be a sad story but HE~
