CHAPTER 945: CHAPTER 945: IS AN XIAOYA MORE POWERFUL THAN SHI YAOGUANG?

While Tang Zhiruo and the others felt relieved, they also became curious about Shi Yaoguang.

Previously, they only knew An Xiaoya.

After all, Lin Zifan was entangled with An Xiaoya.

Now it seems that the truly formidable one is not An Xiaoya, but the person behind her.

Shi Yaoguang.

In fact, Tang Zhiruo and the others had heard of Shi Yaoguang’s reputation before.

However, the reputation they had heard of was quite different from the one they came to know now.

Thinking about it.

Yao Shiyi couldn’t help but ask if they could meet Shi Yaoguang.

An Xiaoya had a good impression of Yao Shiyi.

Hearing her words, she thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Of course, Tang Zhiruo and the others followed along to meet Shi Yaoguang.

Since gaining An Xiaoya’s favor, Yao Shiyi appeared quite pleased along the way.

Seeing her smug expression, Tang Zhiruo and the others were speechless.

Isn’t it just being favored by An Xiaoya?

The reason why she was favored wasn’t for any other reason.

Simply because she can see ghosts.

This kind of ability, they certainly didn’t want.

Naturally, they didn’t envy Yao Shiyi.

Tang Zhiruo was somewhat surprised.

She didn’t expect Yao Shiyi to have the ability to see ghosts; she hadn’t heard a bit about it before.

Yao Shiyi, having clung to a new big thigh, didn’t care what Tang Zhiruo thought.

Under An Xiaoya’s lead, the group soon met Shi Yaoguang.

Yao Shiyi looked at the radiant woman, and no matter how she looked, she didn’t seem like a master.

She even doubted if An Xiaoya was deliberately deceiving them by saying Shi Yaoguang was a hidden expert for self-protection.

Perhaps An Xiaoya just didn’t want anyone else to know that she could actually see ghosts, so she thought of giving credit to Shi Yaoguang; by doing this, everyone would focus on Shi Yaoguang instead of suspecting An Xiaoya of having special abilities.

Thinking this, Yao Shiyi suddenly felt she had discovered the truth.

Immediately, her gaze towards An Xiaoya became even more enthusiastic.

An Xiaoya didn’t know she had conjured up so many scenarios. In fact, her ability to see ghosts wasn’t any big secret.

After all, they all dabbled in metaphysics, so what’s the big deal about seeing ghosts?

Not being able to see ghosts, that’s the rare thing.

Unfortunately, Yao Shiyi had already concluded An Xiaoya was the real boss behind the scenes and decided to stick to her judgment.

When Shi Yaoguang asked who would follow her to cultivate the techniques, Yao Shiyi was the only one who said no.

"You don’t want to train?"

An Xiaoya was surprised by Yao Shiyi’s choice.

The choice of Tang Zhiruo and the others was more normal.

This Yao Shiyi, perhaps her head was not quite right?

Being deemed not quite right, Yao Shiyi grinned at her.

An Xiaoya instinctively took a step back.

Alright.

She seemed even more foolish.

With such a thought, An Xiaoya decided to distance herself from Yao Shiyi.

Yao Shiyi, however, stuck to her, saying, "Miss An, no, Sister Xiaoya, will you be my mentor?"

"Hmm?" An Xiaoya was taken aback.

Yao Shiyi pleaded, "I think our fates are enough to make us mentor and disciple. I have great potential. Please accept me, will you?"

"It’s not a matter of potential..."

An Xiaoya looked troubled.

She hadn’t taken a disciple before, for real.

She wasn’t pretending; An Xiaoya truly didn’t understand why Yao Shiyi would give up such a good mentor as Shi Yaoguang. Even if Shi Yaoguang hadn’t mentioned wanting to take on disciples, studying under her was surely better than learning from An Xiaoya?

Yet, Yao Shiyi refused Shi Yaoguang and clung to her instead...

An Xiaoya genuinely felt this Yao Shiyi might not be very clear-headed.

Shi Yaoguang didn’t see anything wrong with it.

She offered to teach the women cultivation techniques without any hidden motives.

Except...

To make Lin Zifan uncomfortable.

Alright.

Letting Lin Zifan feel uncomfortable was, in itself, a big enough purpose.

But who cares?

Making Lin Zifan uncomfortable was no big deal.

Not making Lin Zifan uncomfortable, that was the true rarity.

An Xiaoya knew this too.

So, upon confirming that Yao Shiyi didn’t want to follow Shi Yaoguang but wanted An Xiaoya to teach her instead, after some hesitation, she agreed.

"Since you want to learn from me, I’ll agree, but..."

Yao Shiyi hurriedly asked, "But what?"

An Xiaoya said, "You must study diligently, no slacking off, understand?"

"Understand, understand."

Yao Shiyi nodded rapidly.

She certainly understood.

Only when the skills were mastered by oneself did they become real.

If she couldn’t grasp those skills, however great they were, what relevance would they have to her?

Yao Shiyi was very clear about this.

From her expression, An Xiaoya could discern her thoughts.

Meanwhile.

She couldn’t help but wonder.

If Yao Shiyi also wanted to gain power, why choose her over Master Shi?

Could it be because of her looks?

But that wouldn’t make sense.

Usually, when faced with a choice between attractive and even more attractive, don’t people tend to choose the more attractive one?

Yao Shiyi chose her rather than the more attractive one...

Maybe it’s because Yao Shiyi found Shi Yaoguang too good-looking, making her unapproachable?

With that thought, it suddenly seemed reasonable.

An Xiaoya pondered for a while and decided there was no point in struggling over it.

There was nothing to struggle about.

Her looks were not as good as Master Shi’s; that was an indisputable fact.

Instead of dwelling on this, better to figure out how to guide Yao Shiyi into the basics.

At this moment, Yao Shiyi still firmly believed.

An Xiaoya was the mastermind.

Until...

Later one day.

She realized An Xiaoya was just a rookie.

Only then did she regret.

However.

By the time she regretted, it was too late.

That will be a story for another time.

For now, all the women present were quite satisfied with the arrangement.

Shi Yaoguang handed over cultivation techniques suitable for women to Tang Zhiruo, who was to lead them in learning.

Tang Zhiruo, after examining them, was utterly amazed.

Simultaneously, she realized that the woman before her, famous outside, truly possessed skills.

Perhaps she could never measure up to such a woman in her lifetime.

But being fortunate enough to stand beside her for a certain period was enough to provide tales for the rest of her life.

Tang Zhiruo was deeply touched.

Of Lin Zifan’s women, she was the first to come to a realization.

Precisely because of this realization, she clearly understood what Shi Yaoguang had given represented.

Even if Shi Yaoguang’s reason for letting them train wasn’t purely for their benefit.

Letting them train was simply to teach Lin Zifan a lesson.

But to them, it was already enough.

It was a great opportunity, a heavenly blessing.

Tang Zhiruo was thankful she seized it.

Meanwhile, she cast a peculiar glance at Yao Shiyi, who was clinging to An Xiaoya and twitched her mouth.

Though Yao Shiyi’s thoughts were hard to grasp, she could somewhat get the point she was trying to make...
