Envy that Luo Binghe had a mother who was “the kindest in all the world to him,” envy of Luo Binghe’s talent, envy that Luo Binghe would enter Cang Qiong Mountain Sect at the best age for cultivating. He was indeed the kind of person to brim with envy and resentment toward a young child.

-> ''Jealousy poisons the mind. It weakens the judgement, perverts the will, and embitters all the emotions and feelings. It makes the end of life a vain pursuit to defeat somebody. If successful in this, another life is wrecked and society perhaps loses the benefit of a well-directed ambition and the good influence of a well-rounded career. If disappointed in this, the jealous mind itself droops in disappointment and vexation, sours on the world, retires to obscurity and finally goes out in rancor and darkness, a practical comment on its own vanity.''
