Red Cloud, Your Way of Dealing with People Won't Work

"A Chu, it's Butterfly Lady!"

Little Moon Spirit held up a colorful caterpillar that was about half a foot long.

Wu Chu paused, blinked, and said calmly, "Oh, it's Butterfly Lady! I thought you had nothing to play with and were playing with caterpillars! Has Butterfly Lady been reborn? She looks pretty good, quite beautiful!"

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh, but Butterfly Lady no longer believed his nonsense; she had just said it was disgusting!

A while later, Wu Chu, holding the tea the Little Fox had brewed for him, sat down next to Hong Yun and began to communicate with him Divine Sense, "Brother, are you really going to take that Butterfly Lady as your Daoist disciple?"

Little Moon Spirit had already told him about Hong Yun's plan to take Butterfly Lady as his Daoist disciple.

Hong Yun looked at him questioningly and replied, "Is there something wrong?"

"There's nothing wrong with it, but I'm just curious, didn't the Fire Cloud Palace have any Daoist disciples before?"

Hong Yun shook his head and said, "I've thought about guiding one or two beings to become my attendants before, but I gave up on that idea in the end. I'm used to cultivating alone. But this Butterfly Lady, I feel quite sorry for her, and she can make incense. I must say, I quite like the incense she makes. After she Transformation Form, I can let her learn cooking and brewing from Little Moon Spirit, then I won't need to travel all this way to beg for wine from you, my worthy brother!"

So, he wanted to find himself a cook and a wine connoisseur! Wu Chu chuckled to himself.

Time flies, and several more years have passed.

The Butterfly Lady has transformed from a caterpillar into a colorful butterfly.

To be honest, compared to the caterpillar's appearance, the butterfly's appearance is much more endearing.

It can communicate with people, but it does so using its Divine Sense.

Clearly, possessing a portion of the Butterfly Lady's Primordial Spirit, it still remembers its past life.

Wu Chu also learned some incense-making techniques from Butterfly Lady, and he also taught Butterfly Lady how to craft various incense utensils, such as incense burners, incense balls, and sachets, making incense play more exquisite.

Although Wu Chu had never played with this before, in his opinion, playing with it was quite expensive, and only those who were rich and had plenty of free time could afford it.

Unless it's just for show, or just for casual fun.

I've never actually used incense, but I've watched some videos and learned a bit about incense culture.

Butterfly Lady hadn't expected that this incense could be used in so many ways, which broadened her horizons and seemed to open a door to a new world for her.

Light a spoonful of incense powder in the incense burner, face the vast lake, play a piece called "High Mountains and Flowing Water" on the guqin, and place a cup of fragrant tea beside you—that's the perfect setting.

Besides enjoying the fragrance, Butterfly Lady usually likes to perch on Hong Yun's shoulder, as if that's when she feels safe.

She would only flutter her wings and perch on the zither table when Wu Chu or the Little Fox played the zither, smelling the fragrance while staring at the zither on the table.

Hong Yun didn't say much about this. Besides teaching her the Golden Core Dao cultivation method, he also taught her some ways of dealing with people and situations.

Upon seeing this, Wu Chu couldn't help but shake his head inwardly, thinking that Hong Yun's unrestrained and carefree way of dealing with people was too easy for him to offend others without him even realizing it.

If Hong Yun were to teach Die Butterfly Lady how to conduct herself in society, the outcome might be disastrous.

Think about it, Hong Yun is already prone to offending people, and then there's Butterfly Lady, who's exactly like Hong Yun. Is this supposed to bring double the fun?

So Wu Chu instructed the Little Fox to teach Butterfly Lady how to read people's expressions.

Then Butterfly Lady started arguing with the Little Fox, feeling that the Little Fox's methods of reading people were all fallacies and heresies, nothing compared to the upright and honest methods of her senior, Hong Yun.

What is there that cannot be said to others? Why secretly try to guess what others are thinking?

The Little Fox was so angry that it wanted to smash the cup, and it yelled at Wu Chu that it didn't want to deal with it anymore.

Wu Chu was somewhat helpless about this, feeling that Butterfly Lady might have been poisoned by Hong Yun.

Seeing their reaction, Hong Yun became curious and asked them what had happened.

Butterfly Lady hesitated to speak, mainly because she had promised Wu Chu not to speak frankly to Hong Yun.

Seeing this, Wu Chu coughed lightly, thought for a moment, and said, "Brother, actually, I feel that the ways of dealing with people that you taught her are not suitable for her, so I asked Xiao Yu to teach her some ways to read people, so that she won't offend people unknowingly."

Hong Yun laughed upon hearing this, "So what if I've offended you? What's the big deal? If you don't understand my intentions and feelings, I'm not willing to associate with you!"

"Brother, you are you, and she is she. You have profound cultivation, so you don't care what others think of you, nor are you afraid of others secretly plotting against you. But can she do that?"

Upon hearing this, Hong Yun seemed to ponder, but then a doubt arose in her mind. "Do my usual words and actions really make people want to secretly harm me?"

Wu Chu laughed and said, "Brother, you don't think that all living beings in this world are as broad-minded and open-minded as you, do you? Let me tell you, there are plenty of narrow-minded beings in this world! Take Bi Huo for example! Do you know why it set fire to Sister Hou Tu's Houtu? It was because Witch Clan Warrior glanced at it."

This is Primordial World version of "What are you looking at?", a true story.

Moreover, in the distant future, you might even suffer a fatal accident because of your good intentions!

Hong Yun shook her head and chuckled. After thinking for a moment, she finally said, "Very well! Let my brother teach her some ways of dealing with people later! Butterfly Lady, what do you think?"

The Butterfly Lady flapped her wings, "Everything is up to my master!"

Hong Yun waved his hand and said, "Don't call me master anymore. I have already accepted you as Named Disciple. You can call me teacher!"

The Butterfly Lady paused in her flapping wings, seemingly somewhat reluctant to change her mind.

I felt extremely insecure.

On this day, Kua and Yi, who had been submerged in the lake for more than twenty years, burst out of the lake laughing heartily, looking spirited and triumphant.

Judging from their aura, this ordeal has significantly improved their cultivation, elevating their overall spirit and energy to a new level.

Wu Chu rubbed his hands together, laughing, "Gentlemen, how about we have a match?"

The two shamans, who had been laughing heartily, suddenly felt like ducks with their necks being choked, recalling the horrific scene from years ago when Wu Chu had humiliated them by pinning them to the ground.

Yi glanced at Kua, and the two nodded as if they were on the same wavelength. Then Kua said, "Two against one, we'll take it! Otherwise, forget it."

Wu Chu chuckled and did a chest-protecting exercise, then bumped his fists together, "Great!"

Do you really think that just because it's two against one, you won't get beaten up?

If you guys got promoted, why didn't I?

So, amidst everyone covering their faces in silent mourning, these two unfortunate souls were once again thoroughly humiliated by Wu Chu.

After bullying the two of them, everyone enjoyed a sumptuous campfire dinner that evening.

The next day, everyone packed up and Departure by boat to return home.
