Chapter 603: Chapter 603: I’ll Teach You How to Draw
With the heart to learn and improve his painting skills, Tang Yu approached the girl.
As the distance shortened, a fresh and pleasant fragrance filled his lungs, leaving him with a refreshing feeling.
From now on, even if he couldn't see her, just by smelling that fragrance, Tang Yu would be able to tell that she had arrived.
When Tang Yu reached the girl's back, the fragrance became even more noticeable.
Several male disciples around her gave her strange looks.
Realizing someone was approaching from behind, the girl stopped painting and turned her head, locking her beautiful eyes on Tang Yu.
After looking at him for a few seconds, she extended her hand and, with a soft and sweet voice, said:
"Give me money."
"What?"
Tang Yu was puzzled. He hadn't done anything yet, why was she already asking for money?
"You've approached me, haven't you smelled the fragrance?"
The girl asked.
"Yes."
"So? I, the first beauty of the Hehuan sect, let you smell my fragrance. You've earned it, isn't it fair that I charge you something in low-grade spirit stones?"
The girl said confidently.
Upon hearing this, Tang Yu finally understood why the male disciples came to learn from her to paint the lotus ponds, yet no one dared to get too close.
"It makes some sense. If I give you the spirit stones, does that mean there's no time limit for smelling this fragrance?"
Tang Yu pulled out ten low-grade spirit stones from his storage ring and asked.
The girl tilted her head, thinking, with an adorable expression, and after a moment, she smiled happily.
"At most, half the time. I finish painting within that time, and then I have other things to do."
"Alright, this deal is truly fair and square, not deceiving anyone."
Tang Yu handed her the spirit stones.
After she took them, she smiled so widely that her eyes nearly closed, showing an unabashed greedy expression.
"I also charge for talking to me. Two low-grade spirit stones for each sentence. Since you're new, I'll forgive the previous ones, but from now on, I'll charge. After all, my time is very valuable, I am the first beauty of the Hehuan sect."
The girl continued painting while muttering.
Hearing that he would have to pay to speak with her, Tang Yu wondered if there were other paid services, maybe he could give her a magical artifact.
However, seeing that he couldn't guess her cultivation level, he decided not to take the risk and instead asked something important.
"Why are you the first beauty of the Hehuan sect? Isn't the sect led by the master?"
The girl continued painting with her right hand and extended her left, waiting for the spirit stones.
Tang Yu took out two spirit stones and placed them on the table.
After that, the girl replied:
"Sister Liu is much older than me, calling her young lady wouldn't be appropriate. But for me, that title fits perfectly."
"…"
Tang Yu paused as he realized she was referring to Liu Yanlan as her sister.
"Are you also a disciple of Master Wuxin?"
Realizing the relationship, Tang Yu moved a little closer and smiled more kindly.
"From the same school? That makes things easier."
"No, Master Wuxin is the ancestor of my Nangong family."
The girl stopped her brush for a moment, turned to Tang Yu, and asked, surprised:
"Are you the genius who just arrived?"
"Yes, I am Tang Yu, nice to meet you, sister."
Tang Yu enthusiastically shook the girl's soft hand.
"Alright, Tang Yu, little brother, give me the medium-quality spirit stones, please."
The girl withdrew her hand and said.
Hearing that the price had risen from low-grade spirit stones to medium-quality ones, Tang Yu took out the medium-quality stones and handed them over.
"Sister, do you have a detailed price list?"
"What are you trying to do? I, Nangong Ying, sell art, not my body."
Nangong Ying crossed her arms over her chest, feigning surprise.
"No, I'm afraid that if I touch you accidentally, I won't be able to pay."
Tang Yu sighed.
He had already realized that this sister of his was a heartless girl, a true treasure seeker.
No wonder the male disciples kept their distance.
"Ah! We're from the same school, don't be so distant, little brother."
Nangong Ying smiled and waved her hand.
"Go play somewhere, don't stop me, I have to paint. Today, I hope to sell some paintings and earn some high-quality spirit stones."
After that, she leaned down to focus on her painting.
Tang Yu watched her painting for a while.
Then he looked at the lotus pond scenery.
Finally, he realized she wasn't painting the pond.
The pond was just a background to highlight the Hehuan sect disciples she was painting.
And the disciples she painted looked much more beautiful than in real life.
She painted people, not landscapes.
As a scholarly man, Tang Yu couldn't help but doubt.
"Sister Nangong, will you really be able to sell this painting for some high-quality spirit stones?"
A hundred low-grade spirit stones were equivalent to one medium-quality one.
Similarly, a hundred medium-quality spirit stones equaled one high-quality one.
Even if it was in his storage ring.
High-quality spirit stones were few.
Tang Yu still understood the value of this object.
"Of course, because it's my painting. The picture of the beautiful lotus flowers painted by the first beauty of the Hehuan sect, it makes sense that it's worth this price, there's always some pervert willing to be the fool."
Nangong Ying finished speaking and extended her hand, signaling Tang Yu to give her the spirit stone, as she had already answered.
Tang Yu didn't pay attention to her, instead, he bent down to the side and said seriously.
"Older sister, I think your drawing skills still need a lot of improvement. If you don't mind, the younger brother will give you some advice."
Nangong Ying lifted her head and looked at Tang Yu with that beautiful face that seemed unreal, hesitating.
"Advice? What are you going to teach me?"
The old master who taught them how to draw thought her skill in drawing people was really excellent.
What could this guy teach her?
"Ah, you don't understand, right? If it's about drawing people, you do have a small foundation, you know how to beautify people properly."
"But in this regard, you are too repetitive. Look at the three disciples by the lotus pond, clearly each one is beautiful in a unique way."
"The one on the left is small and delicate, the one in the center has a tall figure, and the one on the right has a more voluptuous figure."
"That being said, you shouldn't draw them with the same style."
"From what I see, the one with the small figure only needs a little more detail in the chest, yes, just like you."
"The one with the tall figure, you need to highlight her long legs advantage."
"As for the one with the voluptuous figure, naturally, you need to make some adjustments to her clothing."
"Her outfit is relatively fresh, I think that's wrong, better to make her clothes more conservative."
"But you can adjust her posture to highlight her figure more, something more elegant, understand?"
Tang Yu, drawing on his vast experience from reading books, began to teach her how to make the three disciples look more sensual in the drawing.
After Tang Yu gave her some advice,
Nangong Ying's eyes lit up as if a cloud had cleared, suddenly understanding why, although she had improved a lot in her drawing skills over the past six months, her work hadn't improved.
"I see now."
Once she understood, Nangong Ying's beautiful eyes sparkled slightly. She picked up the unfinished painting in her hand and handed it to Tang Yu.
"Young brother, I'll sell you a high-quality spirit stone."
"Is that how you're going to reward me?"
It was the first time Tang Yu saw a woman so contemptuous.
After giving so many pieces of advice, she still wanted to scam him?
"No, young brother, your favorability has increased a lot in my heart, keep it up! Older sister trusts you!"
Nangong Ying clasped her hands, smiling and saying thank you.
She began to draw focused, following Tang Yu's instructions.
When she finally finished the drawing, the new work turned out to be much more refined than the previous one.
The three disciples in the drawing each looked uniquely beautiful.
Even Nangong Ying, being a woman, thought the scenery was really beautiful.
"Well, well, this piece will definitely sell a lot."
After pulling out the new work, Nangong Ying was so happy that her eyes squinted like a crescent moon.
She looked at Tang Yu and said happily, "Young brother, in the future, if you come to talk to older sister, I won't charge you anymore."
"Then, thank you, Sister Nangong."
Tang Yu smiled.
"What do you think of my painting now?"
Proudly, she pointed at her new work and asked.
"If it were a hundred, I'd give it around forty."
Tang Yu responded without thinking.
"Forty? So low? Didn't you say it would look better with this style?"
Nangong Ying looked at him confused, somewhat discouraged.
"Yes, if I hadn't done it this way, it would barely reach ten. Now that we've reached forty, it's already very good."
Tang Yu said seriously.
"Then, how can I make an even better piece? Do you have any suggestions? Or, young brother, can you make one for me to see?"
Nangong Ying had a great ambition to improve her drawing skills.
After all, every time she finished a good work and sold it, it was a big profit in spirit stones!
In the Hehuan sect, she wasn't known for her beauty or her relationship with the former heartless ancestor.
She was famous for being a money fanatic.
In fact, she admired the master of the Duobao hall more than her own ancestor.
The way the Duobao hall master collected money was unrivaled among the seven great clans!
The Duobao hall didn't have much, but it had a lot of money!
If there's a fight, use a treasure to kill you!
"Yes, I have some ideas, but these days my shoulder hurts a lot, I can't lift the brush well."
Tang Yu sighed.
After hearing this, Nangong Ying, very attentive, left her seat and with a smile, pushed Tang Yu to his place.
She stood behind him and began to give him gentle shoulder massages, asking, "Is this better?"
"Older sister, you're very perceptive."
Tang Yu leaned back, and her large breasts blocked his view.
At such a close distance, the sweet scent she emitted was even more tempting.
Meanwhile, the male disciples who were drawing near them saw this and silently packed up their paintings and left, without saying anything.
With a guy like this?
With just a few words, he made Sister Nangong, who was so money-obsessed, massage him without hesitation.
This isn't human!
