109 No Talent at All (1/2)
This martial sister was the youngest one among the three, with a round face and big eyes. The two junior martial brothers that were also in their group couldn't help but look over a few more times.
Yun Bei Fen also looked at her and then tilted his head. This martial sister seemed a little familiar. Could it be that he knew her? Unfortunately, he currently couldn't remember who she was. He had really been in closed-door cultivation for too long.
The young woman looked around and also nodded at them just like Yuan Lei. She looked a bit embarrassed though. As for why that was the case … it naturally had to do with what she was going to say. ”I am Yi Ju. Actually, my cultivation realm isn't too high. I am only in the middle of Foundation Establishment. I don't think I know how to do anything special either.”
She twisted her hands and then looked down at the ground. After Yun Bei Fen, her cultivation was the lowest and she actually didn't know how to do anything. How embarrassing was that? Most likely, everybody else would have something to offer to the group. So she would be the odd one out that just needed the others' protection and might even hinder them in accomplishing the mission.
Seeing her expression, the two martial brothers jumped out at once.
”Ah, junior martial sister Yi, don't take it to heart. We'll just protect you!”
”Yes! It's no problem at all. Just stay in the middle of the group and we'll make sure that no demonic practitioner can get close to you.”
The girl slightly furrowed her brows. She understood that they were just trying to be nice but she felt even worse at their words. They were just empty consolations that did not help at all. She didn't want to be in the middle and be protected. She wanted to be a help. Even if she was young and even if she hadn't learned much, she still wanted to do at least this out.
That was why she had insisted to go on this mission. It was so she wouldn't have to be protected by her senior martial sister Zhang anymore. It was so she could make some progress and not be an embarrassment to her Master. It was so she could proudly say that she was also a disciple of the Teng Yong Sect in the future.
Originally, she had thought that she did a pretty good job. She looked around for clues and pointed out to her previous group's leader what she found. He always praised her! But with the question Mei Chao Bing had just posed, she suddenly realized that she had nothing to say. She was weak and inexperienced. She also didn't have any special talents.
Who knew if the things she had pointed out before were actually useful? Maybe that senior martial brother had praised her in the same way that these two seniors had just told her that it wasn't a problem for her to be weak. Just thinking about it made her feel down.
Mei Chao Bing looked at the two martial brothers before he turned to the girl. ”It's indeed alright.”
The two martial brothers furrowed their brows when they heard that. What was this guy trying to do? Wasn't he engaged to Elder Baili's disciple? He should keep his eyes off their martial sisters, then!
