Zhao Ya nodded, "You’re quite lucky to succeed on your first try. See if there’s any change."
Upon hearing this, Wu Bao’Er carefully felt it again and then said with great delight, "Sir, I feel like my strength has increased significantly."
Zhao Ya smiled, "Of course, just in terms of the nature of True Power, the Giant Python True Power you practiced before was decent, but compared to the Azure Dragon True Power, it’s like day and night. Although the total amount may have decreased significantly after the conversion, the quality has improved a lot."
"So that’s how it is. Sir, you are really amazing!" Wu Bao’Er expressed her admiration without any hesitation, speaking excitedly.
However, Zhao Ya averted his gaze.
Because from his angle, he had a clear view of Wu Bao’Er’s impressive figure as she knelt on the bed.
This glance from Zhao Ya did not go unnoticed by Wu Bao’Er. She looked down, blushing, but instead of hurriedly dressing, she puffed out her chest and spoke with a slightly hoarse voice.
"Sir, you must be tired too. Let me serve you."
"No need, I have things to attend to. I’ll be going now. In the coming days, you should practice diligently to stabilize your current realm as soon as possible."
Zhao Ya advised and then left without hesitation.
Watching his departing figure, a hint of disappointment flashed in Wu Bao’Er’s eyes.
She had thought she had finally impressed Zhao Ya, but now it seemed she was far from it.
However, it wasn’t surprising.
After all, for Zhao Ya to achieve such heights at his age, his determination was evidently extraordinary.
So Wu Bao’Er quickly discarded those chaotic thoughts and began to practice earnestly.
Meanwhile, Zhao Ya returned to the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain where he lived and carefully put away the clothes and shoes made by Zui’Er before taking out the letter written to him by Shang Luoluo.
"Zhao Ya, how have you been recently? Zui’Er and I miss you a lot!"
The opening sentence caused a slight stir in Zhao Ya’s heart.
Moreover, at the end of this sentence, Zhao Ya saw the ink smudged by water.
This suggested Shang Luoluo’s emotions as she wrote this.
However, as he continued reading, Zhao Ya’s mood relaxed.
Because the next sentence from Shang Luoluo read.
"Haha, were you shocked? Just kidding, besides that silly girl Zui’Er who talks about you all the time, I couldn’t be bothered to miss you."
The corners of Zhao Ya’s mouth lifted slightly, amused by this quirky woman.
Then he began reading seriously.
This took more than half an hour.
When he finished, Zhao Ya closed the letter and pondered, his eyes showing the unrest within.
Because Shang Luoluo had written so much in the letter.
Most of it was about the various changes in Yan Capital City after Zhao Ya left.
For example, Yan Xizhao, supported by Washing Sword Manor and the remnants of the royal family of Great Yan, had indeed occupied the regent position to oversee the state.
It was obvious to everyone that becoming the first female emperor in the history of the Great Yan Dynasty was now a foregone conclusion for Yan Xizhao.
Then there was Shang Luoluo’s father, Shang Jingchuan.
Utilizing his position as the Capital Prefect and the prestige accumulated during the chaos, Shang Jingchuan had clearly become the second most influential figure in the Great Yan court.
Even Yan Xizhao and the Washing Sword Manor treated him with respect, and as for the once arrogant and domineering members of the Great Yan royal family, they were as fearful of the Capital Prefecture as they would be of a dragon’s den, not daring to provoke.
Consequently, Shang Luoluo’s identity as the daughter of the Prefect rose as well, especially since Yan Xizhao had invited her and Zui’Er to the palace several times for casual chats. She had indeed become a Celestial Beauty.
Besides, there was Lu Dingtai.
According to Shang Luoluo, Lu Dingtai’s current strength had become unfathomable.
At least in the Jianghu of Yan Capital City, it was widely rumored that he had reached the Meridian Opening, but whether that was true or not, Lu Dingtai remained highly secretive and never spoke about it to outsiders.
Upon hearing this news, Zhao Ya was not at all surprised.
Regarding Lu Dingtai, Zhao Ya felt a deep connection, being most familiar with his character.
In Zhao Ya’s venture into the Martial Dao, he had three mentors.
The first, Meng Lei, although an initial guide on this path, unfortunately died early.
Therefore, much of Zhao Ya’s accomplishments in the Martial Dao can be attributed to Lu Dingtai’s guidance and shaping.
Given Lu Dingtai’s talent in the Martial Dao and his character, Zhao Ya was not at all surprised by his breakthrough.
As for why Lu Dingtai didn’t mention this news to Wu Bao’Er and let her convey it to him...
Knowing well his master’s proud personality, Zhao Ya understood his character.
Lu Dingtai would never voluntarily reveal this.
He had to wait until they met, let Zhao Ya notice it himself, and then feign surprise and ask, only then would Lu Dingtai casually respond that it was just a breakthrough a few days ago, adding at the end, just luck.
Zhao Ya even suspected Lu Dingtai knew Shang Luoluo would write to him and might have guessed she would mention him in the letter.
So at this moment, he might just be in Yan Capital City, sipping tea while chuckling, pondering Zhao Ya’s reaction.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ya couldn’t help but smile faintly.
Apart from the changes in the court and the Jianghu of Yan Capital City, Shang Luoluo also mentioned many trivial matters.
