Bo Penglai added, "I say you take advantage of the training. Establish close contact whenever possible under the guise of 'showing form'. Ah, and don't forget to make use of the single bed in the house. Like this, you can slowly develop intimacy.
"Wait what?" Xian Wu got lost somewhere in the middle of that. 'Intimacy'? Huh?
No no, he just wanted to earn enough of Lai Yiteng's trust to bring him back to Graceful Dragon Sect! Then he could find a number of excuses to keep him there and prevent Lai Yiteng from going out like a psychopath to take bloody revenge on Lushang Sect.
