"Mu Lei, you think too much. With our Holy Lord here, that little girl would be alright." Another person shook his head.
"That’s right. Our master does care for this little girl…" Mu Lei nodded.
"Holy Lord, what do you think of her performance this time?" Mu Feng asked, rather daringly.
"How could the person I choose be poor?" The Holy Lord drawled.
The two young men, "…"
Mu Lei, "The little girl is indeed different…"
Mu Feng taunted, "If she wasn’t different, how would the Holy Lord place his efforts on her and claim that she is his scholar? He definitely has to train her to prevent her from humiliating the name of the Holy Lord."
"Do the two of you really not have anything else better to do?" With just a sentence, the Holy Lord shut their mouths instantly! They carefully observed their master, afraid if their very particular master would agonize them again if he was unhappy.
Fortunately, the Holy Lord did not mean to trouble them. Instead, he was tapping on the branch, pondering.
The surrounding became extremely quiet.
"Mu Feng, how’s Long Siye?" Holy Lord suddenly asked.
"Replying the Holy Lord, he’s still receiving his punishment at the Brahma region."
The Holy Lord slightly nodded and kept quiet.
Both Mu Feng and Mu Lei met eyes and acknowledged that they were both sympathizing Long Siye.
The name 'Brahma' sounded fancy, as though it was a merciful place when it was, in fact, a place of sufferings.
The living condition there was extremely bad, not because of the extreme topography or ferocious beast & poisonous mist, but rather the bad condition which changes according to the victim's spiritual power.
For example, if a person with a water talent was receiving his punishment, the condition will change to arid soil.
Long Siye had wood talents, so it was a hell of a fire. That fire would drain body liquids out and cause an extreme burning sensation…
The Holy Lord was usually kind, especially towards his four disciples who received the heavenly gift. Though he always gave them some troubles, he would not punish them by sending them there.
Nevertheless, Long Siye deserved such serious punishment as he had kidnapped Gu Xijiu and disturbed the heavenly gift test - it was indeed unexpected.
Mu Feng slightly hesitated, "Holy Lord, I heard that the protective boundaries of Tianwen mountain were destructed before Long Siye came to receive his punishment. He had spent lots of his spiritual power and eight whole days to repair it…"
"Yes? So?" Holy Lord shifted his focus towards him.
Mu Feng plucked up his courage to continue, "He’s been at Brahma region for almost a month now... can he be released now?"
Holy Lord slightly frowned and thought about it briefly while tapping on a tree branch and said indifferently, "You are right, a month is the longest for a person to be in Brahma region. Let him out and then put him in the Aqua Sky Court so that he can rest for a few months."
Mu Feng, "…"
The two young men were looking at each other again. Though Aqua Sky Court was the place for people with water talent to recharge themselves, it could be considered as a good place for Long Siye to rest, as wood required water too.
Nonetheless, resting there was a suffering because it was a frozen world which was much colder than the North Pole.
Was it good for Long Siye to enter the frozen world immediately after the hell of fire?
Poor Overlord Long - he had to experience both a freezer and a furnace!
Holy Lord glanced at him, "Are you not going away now?"
The two young men were shocked and knew that they could not change the Holy Lord’s mind anymore. Therefore, they quickly replied and ran away as quickly the fury of a tornado.
...
Note from the author: Ahem, somebody asked if Holy Lord and Di Fuyi are the same person. Actually, you could know from the name of his attendants. They are still Mu Yun, Mu Lei, Mu Dian…the answer is very obvious, isn’t it?
The Holy Lord stood still, looking towards the cave and the direction where Gu Xijiu went, the corners of his mouth began to turn up.
"Little Xijiu, don’t disappoint me. You need to work harder!" He then shifted his focus towards his hands. It seems that he has become overly concerned about the little girl, perhaps it was due to the fact he had experienced many things for the first time because of her.
After a while, he began to laugh and partly squint his eyes.
For the first time, he was placing so much effort on someone who was not a disciple of the heavenly gift. It was probably something that caught his interest. After all, he rarely had anything that sparked his interest.
...
Time passed by quickly. With just a blink of an eye, four months had passed.
Inside a quiet room, there was a beautiful yet faint aura radiating from a person who was meditating.
The faint aura slowly disappeared and the person, who was meditating, opened her eyes.
"Congratulations master, your spiritual power has finally increased to level four!" The compelling voice of the Firmament Stone transmitted into her mind.
Gu Xijiu woke up, stretched her body and began to feel the spiritual power inside her body. Then, she let out a sigh, "My spiritual power was only able to level up twice in over five months. Little Cang, is my practicing method incorrect?"
The Firmament Stone replied, "Master, from what I know, the well-known genius of the Feixing Kingdom, Rong Jialuo, was born with a level four spiritual power. He started practicing since he was four years old and after 16 years, his spiritual power was only able to level up twice, and yet he was well regarded as a genius. On the other hand, you have leveled up twice in less than six months, and you are complaining? Don't you understand that you're leveling up at an incredible speed already?"
Gu Xijiu tapped on it once, "Didn't we start from the bottom? Aren't beginners supposed to level up quicker at the start and then become slower at a higher level?"
The Firmament Stone was speechless and gave her another example, "Gu Tianchao, your so-called elder brother, was born with a level three spiritual power. He started practicing since he was five years old and after 15 years his spiritual power was only able to reach level 4.5! Even he was able to be accepted as a disciple of the Jiuxing clan!"
Gu Xijiu stood up, "Alright, alright. I already knew I was a genius. You don't have to praise me with more examples."
The Firmament Stone, "..."
Gu Xijiu smiled as she felt good to be able to chat with the Firmament Stone.
The Firmament Stone had slept for five months! It only awoke three days ago and was finally able to talk to her.
The first sentence it said was, "Master, were you changing yourself again? I was almost unable to recognize you!"
Gu Xijiu understood as her appearance was very different from how she looked six months ago.
She used to be only 1.5m tall, and now she has grown to 1.65m tall!
Her breast had developed while her legs had become thinner and longer. Her figure was carved perfectly with perfect curves.
Her skin was fair and tender, and her eyes became big and filled with vigor. Even the red patch on her forehead had almost disappeared and could be covered entirely with just a little bit of make-up.
The Firmament Stone felt after it had awoken from its slumber that the duckling which was once ugly had now turned into a beautiful swan!
The change in her did not only surprise it but also attracted it to keep staring at her.
Nonetheless, it was still concerning, "Master, you're only 14 years and two months old. Do you look too mature? Did you eat some hormones or something?"
Gu Xijiu almost wanted to give it a good beating, "Stupid, this body was not able to develop properly before. Now that I have taken good care of it for several months, it was finally able to develop back to normal, and it has nothing to do with taking any hormones!"
This world calculated age based on one full year of one's life. Therefore, 14 years old also meant 15 years old according to the modern world's western calendar; hence, her body was supposed to be still in the development phase.
