"Xiao Pa." Yun, now a Beast Tamer, occasionally fought alongside Xiao Pa.
But most of the time, it was Xiao Pa who did the fighting.
Here it comes, meow.
In a flash, Xiao Pa moved with lightning speed. Song Yansheng, caught off guard, failed to dodge in time and was struck.
"Little thing, didn't expect you to have some tricks up your sleeve," Song Yansheng sneered, glancing at his minor injury.
Being called a "little thing" angered Xiao Pa, who unleashed a fiery whirlwind.
Having learned from his earlier mistake, Song Yansheng no longer underestimated his opponent and began to fight seriously.
For a short while, Xiao Pa managed to catch Song Yansheng off guard, but once he adapted, Song Yansheng no longer found Xiao Pa particularly impressive.
The gap in cultivation was evident, and Song Yansheng initially feared he had encountered a tough opponent.
It seemed that Su Mozi's strongest asset was this little creature.
After some time in battle, Yun noticed that Xiao Pa was struggling.
Fine, he thought, it was time to intervene.
However, just as Yun was about to finish off Song Yansheng, he sensed Su Luo's return.
No need to act, then.
Still, he had to put on a bit of a show. Even though Xiao Pa had done most of the fighting, it would seem odd if Yun emerged unscathed.
After all, his opponent was at the Nascent Soul level.
Yun made it look like he had been injured.
"My home, when did it become so lively?"
Su Luo entered through the door and spoke.
"Su Mozi!"
"Su Mozi!"
Seeing Su Luo return, his subordinates felt as though they had found their anchor.
These subordinates had been thoroughly beaten.
Yet, Su Luo didn't even glance at them, walking straight toward Yun.
"Su Mozi has returned. My apologies, this will be over soon."
Song Yanshen showed no intention of stopping.
Su Luo ignored him, approaching Yun. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine."
Though Yun said he was fine, Su Luo could see he had been slightly injured. "Leave the rest to me."
"Alright."
Song Yanshen continued attacking Xiao Pa while addressing Su Luo.
"My apologies, Su Mozi, for damaging your house. But I'll compensate you—tenfold. And I've already reserved that room over there, hahaha!"
In other words, Song Yanshen intended to destroy Su Luo's entire residence.
Compensation? Go ask Qing Bukuang for it, if you dare.
Song Yanshen's confidence stemmed from the fact that the other seven prodigies had united against Su Luo. Why should he show any respect?
"Xiao Pa, come back," Su Luo said.
Though reluctant, Xiao Pa obediently returned to Su Luo's shoulder, baring its teeth at Song Yanshen.
Su Luo gently patted Xiao Pa before setting it down.
"I assume you have no last words."
Before Song Yanshen could comprehend Su Luo's words, his head was separated from his body.
Su Luo had already drawn a sword, slashing at Song Yanshen from a distance.
Song Yanshen was split in two.
At the point of separation, a spatial rift appeared, voraciously devouring Song Yanshen's corpse. In moments, not a trace of him remained.
Silence fell over the surroundings.
The scene had unfolded too quickly, and it was utterly shocking.
While the onlookers couldn't comprehend Su Luo's technique, they understood the result.
Song Yanshen, the Nascent Soul powerhouse, was gone—just like that.
The remaining members of Song Yanshen's group wore expressions of sheer terror.
This was beyond exaggeration.
The sword in Su Luo's hand crumbled into dust, unable to withstand even a single strike.
But Su Luo had plenty of such ordinary swords. He drew another.
Those who came to cause trouble wouldn't be leaving.
Seeing Su Luo draw a second sword, the intruders didn't need to guess his intentions. They scrambled to flee.
With a single swing of his sword, Su Luo ended their lives.
Effortlessly.
Is... is this our Su Mozi?
Even Su Luo's subordinates were baffled.
Wasn't this a bit too outrageous?
In that moment, any lingering resentment they had toward Su Luo for ignoring them vanished completely.
Being ignored was justified—they were too weak and had embarrassed Su Mozi.
Yun was also taken aback. From such close proximity, even Yun couldn't discern what treasure Su Luo had used.
Could a Golden Core cultivator wield such power?
The only other possibility was that Su Luo had been concealing his true strength.
To deceive even Yun's eyes—Su Luo had always been extraordinary, but now it seemed he was even more formidable than imagined.
Still, that move was impressive. Worth learning.
As everyone stood in stunned silence, Su Luo spoke. "Yun, clean this up. I'm going for a walk."
With that, he walked out.
No one dared ask where he was going.
The atmosphere was tense.
Though Su Luo didn't visibly show anger, asking the wrong question now felt like a death wish.
It was just a feeling, but it was better to err on the side of caution.
Watching Su Luo leave until he was out of sight, his subordinates finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"That was terrifying. I thought I was going to die."
"You're underestimating our Su Mozi. When has he ever turned on us?"
"Even so, why didn't you ask where he was going?"
"Well... I was too scared. An angry Su Mozi is terrifying."
As for the reason behind Su Luo's anger, the subordinates unanimously turned their gaze to Yun.
"Yun, teach us. How do we get closer to Su Mozi?"
"Yeah, yeah. Su Mozi ignores us, but he doesn't ignore you. Share your secrets with us."
"We're loyal to Su Mozi, never betraying him. But if possible, we'd like him to notice us too."
"Please, Yun, tell us. We'll do anything!"
At times like these, the best answer was:
"I don't know."
That was Yun's response.
Even Nangong Xiyun hadn't realized that Yun held such a place in Su Luo's heart.
She had thought Yun was only slightly above the others.
But now, seeing Su Luo act so decisively for Yun's sake, she felt... pleased?
Hehe~o(* ̄︶ ̄*)o
......
The topic ended there.
Yun began directing the subordinates to clean up the wreckage.
However, one of the female subordinates secretly grumbled.
"Ugh, why? I'm much prettier than Yun, yet I can't catch Su Mozi's attention."
The others looked at her as if she were an idiot.
Why was she so average yet so confident?
Sure, she was a bit prettier than Yun, but not by much.
"Stop dreaming. You can't replace Yun's position with Su Mozi. None of us can."
"I've come to terms with it. Su Mozi ignores us now, and he'll probably keep ignoring us. If you can't accept that, it's better to leave early."
Silence fell.
But no one suggested leaving.
"Right? After seeing Su Mozi in action again, I'm even more determined to follow him. Don't try to talk me out of it!"
"Who's trying to talk you out of it? We all feel the same."
"Haha, then from now on, let's do our best. Our goal: never embarrass Su Mozi!"
"Agreed!"
Yun watched them chattering among themselves. Were they too obsessed with Su Luo?

e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body.

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all."
