Fairy, please step aside, I've taken a liking to your man.

A martial artist at the Innate Realm could easily eat a whole cow a day.

Even though you don't need to eat as much spirit beast meat as you would with regular beef, the price of spirit beast meat is naturally much higher.

Having saved up some money recently, Shen Bai hadn't dared to eat to his heart's content. Now that his master was treating him, he didn't stand on ceremony and ordered ten catties of second-tier spirit beast meat, along with two stir-fried dishes to cut through the greasiness.

Si Qing ordered herself a bowl of spiritual porridge.

The two sat in a corner, eating and chatting. In the time it took to finish a meal, all the thousands of employees in the cafeteria knew that this handsome young man was Si Qing's newly accepted alchemy apprentice, a senior in high school who would soon be taking the college entrance examination.

Seeing Shen Bai's cultivation at the Innate Realm, more than a thousand people were green with envy.

They've all been through that stage, so it's unclear how. To reach the innate level before the college entrance exam, this kid's future is limitless.

Could it be another genius like Si Qing?

No wonder Si Qing personally accompanied him to lunch; even a genius alchemist like Si Qing probably values ​​him highly.

Moreover, isn't this guy a little too close to Si Qing?

What's the meaning of you whispering in Si Qing's ear all the time?

[Ding! 560 new rivals detected, each with a jealousy level of 60. When a rival's jealousy level reaches 80, you can extract one of their abilities.]

[Ding! Jealousy from Ling Ze +5, current level 65!]

[Ding! Jealousy from Tong Di +5, current level 65!]

[Ding! Yu Guan's jealousy level increased by 8, currently at 68!]

……

It is difficult for people to control their jealousy, even those who have achieved great cultivation, such as Foundation Establishment cultivators, Golden Core cultivators, and Nascent Soul cultivators.

Unless one is a saint who is free from desires or a great being who has experienced the warmth and vicissitudes of life, one will always feel jealous of people and things that are better off than oneself.

The cafeteria staff might not be familiar with Shen Bai, but when they learned that he was a senior high school student at the Innate Realm and an apprentice of a genius alchemist, those who had feelings for Si Qing were instantly filled with jealousy!

In no time, the rumors spread like wildfire, and soon some people were spreading the word that Shen Bai was Si Qing's kept man.

If it weren't for the fact that more than half of the employees were women, Shen Bai would probably have gained a thousand new rivals in love.

A meal allowed Shen Bai and Si Qing to get to know each other better, and Si Qing became increasingly satisfied with this apprentice from an ordinary family but with extraordinary talent.

She was naturally indifferent to worldly affairs and only loved alchemy, but that didn't mean she was ignorant of human relationships.

Tong Wenxiao had already understood that Shen Bai was not without background when she heard Hu Weiwei mention that President Hu had made special arrangements for him that morning. After leaving the alchemy room, she contacted Hu Weiwei and confirmed that Shen Bai had made a significant contribution to the establishment of Kunbai Pharmaceutical.

This was not an ordinary alchemy apprentice, but a direct disciple of Master Hu Fangkun, just like himself.

This naturally made her feel close to Shen Bai.

When they finished eating and walked out of the cafeteria together, Si Qing was all smiles, which made everyone in the cafeteria feel extremely cold.

Oh no, has the genius alchemist fallen for it?

Sure enough, even geniuses are attracted to good looks!

……

Back at the alchemy building, Si Qing arranged a lounge for Shen Bai.

After a short lunch break, Shen Bai returned to the alchemy room, but found no one there. He had no choice but to continue studying his herbal medicine catalog.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, the bell rang, Shen Bai got up, stretched, packed his things, and went home.

As soon as he went downstairs, he saw a man in a golden Taoist robe standing at the exit of the company's array. He was holding a large bouquet of flowers and had a powerful aura. Shen Bai immediately guessed that this was probably the array master who was pursuing his master.

Since he didn't know the situation yet, there was no need to rush to take advantage of the offer. Shen Bai stepped onto his flying skateboard, flew down from the floating island, and arrived at the milk tea shop.

"Weren't you already working at the pharmaceutical factory?"

Hu Feier was quite surprised by his arrival. Shen Bai said with a grin, "I have to treat everyone equally!"

Hu Feier's pretty face flushed red instantly.

This little guy is getting more and more unruly!

Shen Bai's words had a double meaning; he was referring to both Hu Feier and the young ladies at the milk tea shop. Although it was difficult to extract abilities from these customers, it was easy to extract their jealousy points.

Even though the part-time job doesn't pay much, he won't give it up easily.

Qi Hao, standing to the side, was so jealous his eyes almost popped out. Unfortunately, the jealousy level could only go up to 100 points, otherwise Shen Bai believed that his jealousy level could break through to 10000 points.

As usual, Shen Bai took photos with the girls. Today, he wore a handsome suit, which was different from his usual youthful style, and immediately attracted the girls' attention.

The little puppy has grown into a big wolfhound, how can we let this go?

Looking at Shen Bai, who was becoming more and more popular, Hu Feier's eyes were full of happy smiles.

She didn't know why, but she felt very happy whenever she saw Shen Bai standing beside her.

Shen Bai was also very happy. His jealousy level had risen rapidly today, and in no time, the total balance had exceeded 70,000.

Unfortunately, there aren't any better items available in the store to redeem right now.

[Ding! Jealousy from Wan Yang +10, current level 80!]

[Ding! Rival Wan Yang's jealousy level has reached 80. You can extract one of his abilities.]

[Please choose one of the following three abilities from your rival, Wan Yang.]

[Ability 1: Holy Blood Scripture]

[Ability Two: Dual Cultivation Method with Maidens]

[Ability 3: Mastery Level Soul-Seizing Sound]

[Note: The current rival's level is too far below the host's; this skill is temporarily unavailable after being obtained during the Qi Refining stage.]

……

Shen Bai's smile froze abruptly. He glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and immediately saw a glamorous woman dressed in a purplish-red dress looking at Hu Feier with great interest.

The woman was tall and slender, with long, flowing hair and narrow, phoenix-shaped eyes that exuded both allure and danger. Her dress was slightly upturned, revealing a pair of long, shapely legs; both her attire and her gaze were extremely bold.

"Demonic cultivator!"

None of the three abilities were anything legitimate. Shen Bai immediately realized that this alluring woman was a notorious demonic cultivator.

Standing next to her was a sweet-looking woman who was looking at her with great interest, waiting for the opportunity to take a photo with her. Her innocent and cheerful appearance attracted the attention of many men.

This demonic cultivator has taken a liking to the shopkeeper?

Shen Bai learned for the first time that jealousy could actually come from the opposite sex!

Wait!

The other person's name is Wan Yang. Doesn't that sound like a woman's name?

What exactly is going on?

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Bai silently chose ability three. He didn't know what impact choosing the first two abilities would have on him, and the Dual Cultivation Method for Young Women sounded like a technique for women to cultivate, so even if he got his hands on it, it wouldn't be of much use.

Shen Bai was pondering how to subtly remind the store manager when he saw the manager walk up to Hu Feier and say in a flirtatious tone, "Little girl, how about I take you for a drive after get off work?"

Hu Feier was stunned.

Shen Bai was also stunned!

Hu Feier never expected that this woman would act crazy and flirt with her, and Shen Bai never expected that the other party's flirting style would be so greasy.

Want to go for a drive?

are you serious?
