Yi Lin didn't say it out loud.
But Wang Xiaohu was already impressed by Yi Lin's various miraculous displays.
Lord Niu once said that true cultivators have quite a few celestial techniques.
Things like sowing beans to form soldiers, or taking a step to cross great distances and traveling a thousand miles in a day, among others.
Although Lord Niu might not understand these himself, he conveyed the idea clearly enough.
This led to Wang Xiaohu, who grew up under the influence of Lord Niu's stories, quickly adding up what he saw about Yi Lin.
"Brother Lin must have secretly inherited the teachings of a master!"
We agreed to wander the martial world together and grow up together, yet you secretly got ahead of me!
Wang Xiaohu was extremely envious of these abilities.
But Wang Xiaohu was simple-minded, and besides envy, he didn't harbor any malicious thoughts like jealousy.
In fact, there was no point in being jealous at all.
People's fates are different.
