Plundering Word Traits Again: A Three-Eyed Spirit Monkey? Shui Yue's Envy

Su Ru nodded slightly at her words.

Earlier, she had wanted her husband to see how her senior sister treated a poorly gifted disciple, so that he would stop constantly comparing their seventh child to geniuses like Lin Jingyu.

But now—

Su Han's talent was so astonishing that it far surpassed Lin Jingyu's by a wide margin, completely contrary to her original purpose.

Therefore, Su Ru had no intention of letting Su Han stay any longer.

If Buyi had to look at Su Han every day, who knew how much he would come to dislike our seventh child... Sigh.

Thinking of this, Su Ru smiled at Shui Yue. "Senior Sister, since Sect Leader Senior Brother is waiting, take Xiao Han and leave."

Shui Yue nodded. She then grabbed Su Han's arm and prepared to depart on her sword.

Tian Ling'er stepped forward a few paces, reluctant to part with him. "Su Han, remember to come visit me."

Su Han smiled and reached out to ruffle Tian Ling'er's hair. "If I have time, I'll come see you."

Tian Ling'er pouted. This time, unusually, she did not swat away Su Han's large hand. "Then it's a promise."

Su Han smiled, withdrew his hand from Tian Ling'er's head, and nodded.

He then said to Shui Yue, "Master, we can leave now."

After saying that, Su Han immediately looked at Zhang Xiaofan. With a thought, he said, System, designate Zhang Xiaofan's Exceptional Comprehension (Gold) Word Trait for plunder.

Su Han still had one chance to plunder a Word Trait.

Therefore, he planned to use this chance on Zhang Xiaofan.

After all, he did not know how many months he would have to wait before seeing Zhang Xiaofan again.

As for Little Gray?

Although its Word Traits were also astonishing, Su Han would be taking Little Gray with him. Obtaining its Word Traits would be as easy as turning his hand, so there was no need to rush.

As Su Han's words fell—

The system's notification instantly rang out in his mind.

Ding! Congratulations, Host! Word Trait plunder successful. Zhang Xiaofan's Word Trait has been plundered: Exceptional Comprehension (Gold).

Ding! Congratulations, Host! Word Trait added successfully. Obtained Word Trait: Exceptional Comprehension (Gold).

At that moment, as Zhang Xiaofan's Exceptional Comprehension Word Trait was plundered by Su Han—

Su Han felt his mind suddenly become exceptionally clear. Many principles of the Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao that he had previously failed to understand suddenly became clear to him.

So this is the Gold Word Trait, Exceptional Comprehension?

Interesting!

Feeling the changes within himself, Su Han could not help feeling pleasantly surprised.

This ability is probably top-tier even among Gold Word Traits. I can develop it further when I get the chance!

While Su Han was lost in thought—

Shui Yue had already taken Su Han into the air on her flying sword.

Qingyun Mountain Range.

A streak of sword light flew through the white clouds toward Tongtian Peak.

Looking closely, there was a female sword immortal in white and a graceful young man standing atop the sword.

Apparently afraid of falling from the sword light, the young man tightly hugged the female sword immortal's slender waist...

The female sword immortal pursed her lips slightly, a trace of shyness flashing through her eyes.

The two were none other than Shui Yue and Su Han.

"Xiao Han, your hand..."

Shui Yue had just been about to speak.

But at that moment, a sudden series of squeaks rang out atop the sword light.

Little Gray, flying through the sky for the first time, seemed terrified. It clung desperately to Su Han's collar and shrieked in panic.

The words Shui Yue had been about to say stopped short.

Only then did she notice that there was actually a little gray monkey hidden inside her disciple's collar.

Shui Yue had seen Little Gray back on Great Bamboo Peak, but at the time, she had assumed it was merely an ordinary little monkey from the peak and had paid it no attention.

Yet she had not expected—

After leaving Great Bamboo Peak, her disciple would bring that monkey along.

Shui Yue asked curiously, "Xiao Han, this little monkey is?"

Hearing Shui Yue's question, Su Han first smiled. He gently soothed Little Gray and held it out before Shui Yue.

"Master, my trip to Great Bamboo Peak this time was truly fruitful."

"Not only did I obtain the Inverse Scale Sword, but I also gained this spirit pet."

"A spirit pet?"

Shui Yue examined Little Gray with mild curiosity.

Although she could sense that this little monkey was somewhat different from ordinary wild beasts, she could not see any major distinction.

Only the black line between the monkey's brows seemed somewhat unusual.

Su Han was not surprised that Shui Yue had failed to see what was special about Little Gray. After all, in the original story, Tian Buyi had not immediately recognized Little Gray's origins either.

Thus, Su Han smiled and explained, "Master, don't be fooled by how ordinary Little Gray looks now. It's only because it's still young."

"You should know that it is the legendary ancient spirit beast, the Three-Eyed Spirit Monkey."

"The Three-Eyed Spirit Monkey?"

Shui Yue was instantly astonished upon hearing Su Han's words.

She could not help recalling the records concerning the Three-Eyed Spirit Monkey.

"Records of Gods and Demons: Spirit Beasts Chapter"—Three-Eyed Spirit Monkey: Originating from western Mount Sumeru, intelligent and mischievous, it lives for over a thousand years before opening its spirit eye. It can see for a thousand miles and control vegetation, earth, and stone...

For a moment, Shui Yue stared at Little Gray, which Su Han was holding before her.

Who would have thought that such an ordinary-looking little monkey was actually this kind of legendary ancient spirit beast?

Throughout the Qingyun Sect's thousands of years of history, perhaps only the Spirit Lord Water Qilin subdued by Ancestor Qingye could be mentioned in the same breath as a Three-Eyed Spirit Monkey.

Thinking of this—

Even though Su Han was her disciple, Shui Yue could not help revealing a hint of envy in her gaze as she looked at him.

His heaven-defying aptitude is one thing, but this luck of his is simply too absurd...

He merely went to Great Bamboo Peak once, yet he not only obtained a blood-refined Inverse Scale Sword that surpassed the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon Tianya, but also subdued an ancient spirit beast, the Three-Eyed Spirit Monkey, as his spirit pet.

Don't be envious. Xiao Han is my disciple, so don't be envious...

Sigh, I really am still a little envious of this disciple's monstrous luck!

After a long while—

Shui Yue took a deep breath and gradually regained her composure.

She could not help sighing to Su Han, "Fortunately, you and I were not born in the same era."

"Otherwise, I fear I truly would have spent my entire life living in your shadow. Sigh."

As she spoke, Shui Yue could not help thinking of her other beloved disciple, Lu Xueqi.

I hope Xueqi can accept it calmly. Otherwise...

Shui Yue shook her head and did not continue.

Instead, she formed a hand seal, and the flying sword beneath her feet suddenly accelerated once more.

Very soon—

A towering, majestic peak that pierced the clouds, as though it truly reached the heavens, came into view in the distance.
