Chapter 788: Dumbfounded 4

If Senior Brother Zi Ran was like the March sunshine, as refreshing as a spring breeze, then the beautiful Master was like the bitter cold of December, a chilly frigidity that inspired awe in one's heart.

"Mhm!" Zi Ran patted Su Luo's head. "You don't need to worry about the three-month assessment at all. With a refining Genius like you, who would have the heart to drive you away?"

Speaking of which, this Junior Sister wasn't much at first, but now, the more he looked at her, the more he liked her.

Su Luo left the Refining Room and found that the sky outside was pitch black, with only a bright, clear moon hanging high in the sky.

There was still a faint light coming from Master's courtyard.

Su Luo couldn't help but want to tell him the news of her promotion as soon as possible, so she headed over.

There was light in the Small Study; Master must be there.

Usually, Master taught Su Luo in the Large Study, but she had never been to the Small Study.

The door to the Small Study was open.

"Eh? Master isn't here?" Su Luo walked in and scanned the surroundings, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.

Since Master wasn't there, she might as well come back tomorrow to tell him the news.

Su Luo was about to turn and leave when the corner of her eye suddenly caught sight of the wall.

A painting was hanging there.

When she saw the painting, for some reason, Su Luo's entire body instantly stiffened.

It was a Portrait of a Beautiful Woman.

The setting was right here on Cloud Mist Peak.

The snow was white and thick, and the cold was biting.

The female subject in the painting was peerlessly beautiful!

With just one look, one would be deeply captivated, unable to look away.

When she saw that face, Su Luo felt her Soul tremble.

What kind of face was this?

The phrase "devastatingly beautiful" absolutely could not describe her beauty.

Queenly! Su Luo subconsciously thought of these words.

She clearly hadn't seen this face before, so why did it give her such a sense of familiarity, as if she had seen it somewhere? Su Luo scratched her head, feeling puzzled.

Just then, a soft sound of footsteps came from outside the door.

Master?

Su Luo was startled and looked back.

Under the moonlight, the beautiful Master walked over unhurriedly.

When Rong Yun saw Su Luo, a shadow flashed through his beautiful eyes, and his voice instantly became as cold as iron: "Why are you here?"

At this moment, his entire body radiated a terrifying dark aura.

That aura was so cold it made Su Luo's spine tingle and her body stiffen.

This was a chill that seeped out from deep within.

"Master…" Su Luo licked her dry lips, "The study door was open, so I…"

"Is this a place you can just enter as you please!" Rong Yun's face was clouded as he barked.

This was truly an undeserved misfortune. If she had known, she wouldn't have been curious and would have just left.

Su Luo sighed inwardly, but on the surface, she obediently lowered her eyes: "Disciple will leave now."

Su Luo hurriedly walked past Rong Yun.

However, before she could walk out the door, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Stop."
