Please, I Really Didn’t Want To Fall in Love With My Master!

Chapter 34: A Proud Genius and A Poor Girl!

Li Ran was a very lazy person. His motto in life was: Be lenient to yourself and be strict with others.

Not only did he not have any expectations from these rookies, he even felt that they were troublesome. As a result, he made them fight the entire time. He was not even bothered to take action until they were pushed to a dead end.

However, in the eyes of the new disciples, this irresponsible attitude had turned into the assumption that he was making them do the painstaking effort to "refine their combat experience".

On the seventh day of the trial.

Because of Li Ran's cultivation, there were more and more disciples hanging on the thread. Everyone was more or else injured, nonetheless, they made great progress.

Their eyes became firm. Their combat ability had improved qualitatively, and their teamwork became more and more tacit.

There were even three people who had directly broken through to the late-stage of Qi Refining Realm.

All of this was credited to Li Ran.

"Kill!" The last demon beast fell into a pool of blood.

The surrounding demon beasts were not very strong. They were basically at the Qi Refining Realm.

As long as the scale of the beast group wasn't too large, the disciples of Youluo Temple would be able to handle beasts on their own.

"Sheng Zi, the sky is about to darken. Why don't we set up camp at the water source and rest for the night?" Lu Xinran ran over and asked.

Li Ran stretched out his waist. "That's fine. Then, let's rest."

"Yes." The disciples quickly set up camp by the lake.

Everyone lit a bonfire and gathered together to eat roast meat. Only Li Ran sat alone on the treetops, his back looking extremely distant.

"Sheng Zi, you're so cold. You've never eaten with us," a female disciple said.

Lu Xinran shook his head. “You guys don't understand. Under the cold and aloof appearance of Sheng Zi lies a warm heart. He's just not good at communicating with people. Think back to the beginning…"

She explained what Li Ran did to help her breakthrough.

"Wow, Sheng Zi is so warm~"

"That's right. Even though he looks like he dislikes us, he's helping us all the time!"

"It turns out that his disdainful eyes are filled with love!"

"This is how geniuses are. They are not good at communicating with others!"

"Thinking about it like this, Sheng Zi is so cute~"

After everyone's brain tinkered, Li Ran turned from a cold and distant genius to a warm-hearted genius.

At this moment, he was sitting on the top of the tree, happily eating the snow fluffy pellets. This was a delicacy carefully prepared by Aqin. It was much more delicious than the roast meat that did not even have any seasoning…

"Sheng Zi, come down and eat with us!"

"You can't starve yourself to death!" The female disciples cried out in pain.

Li Ran refused without hesitation. Want to eat my little pellets? No chance!

Whoosh~

Xiao Qingge panted heavily as she staggered through the dense forest. Blood oozed from the corner of her mouth, and her body was covered in wounds. Her clothes had long since been torn apart by the branches.

This was the fifth day she had entered the Grand Myriad Mountain Range. Along the way, she followed the map and tried her best to avoid the places where the demon beasts were.

Even so, she still got in danger. There were many times she had crossed the death’s door.

If it wasn't for her astonishing willpower, she would've been buried long ago.

"Because I don't have a cultivation base, I can't use my storage ring… I have already eaten all the dry rations, but I am still dozens of kilometers away from the secret realm…" Xiao Qingge's face was pale.

A few days ago, she unexpectedly learned that there was a secret realm opening in the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Rumors had it that the Ancient Immortal Emperor's Inheritance resided there.

Her intuition told her that this was her only chance to turn her fate around. Therefore, she did not hesitate to disobey her father's orders, secretly stole the map, and entered the Hundred Thousand Mountains. All for the sake of finding that wisp of illusory immortal destiny.

However, before she could even see the shadow of the secret realm, she was on the verge of dying.

"If I can't obtain this strand of immortal destiny, all that's waiting for me is a nightmare… I definitely can't give up!

"Even if I die, I will still die on the Immortal Path!" Xiao Qingge's eyes gradually became firm.

Just as she was about to move, the ground suddenly trembled violently.

Boom!

The trees from afar collapsed.

Her expression changed.

"Not good, it's coming in my direction!" Xiao Qingge didn't dare to stop. She ran wildly, but the trees in front of her couldn't raise her speed.

The distance between the demon beast and her was rapidly closing.

Boom!

A huge monster smashed into her, and a huge shockwave almost sent her flying. A large number of shadows covered the sky!

Xiao Qingge raised her head, her face filled with disbelief and terror!

A demonic black bear!

At this moment, it stood on both feet. The dark and shiny body of the bear was nearly ten meters long, and its bloodshot eyes stared at her as drool slid down the corner of its mouth.

"A demonic bear with such size?!" Xiao Qingge's eyes were filled with despair. Even if she still had her cultivation, she was probably not a match for this monster.

At this moment, she suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a stream of water flowing nearby.

Instantly, her mind trembled!

If she could jump into the river and sink along with the water source, perhaps there would still be a slim chance of survival.

No longer hesitating, she turned around and ran towards the water source.
