Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the Small Study, with nothing to do, Ji Li sat by the bed, propping her cheek with her hand, staring at Lu Xun’s face for a long time.

She had once thought about capturing this man to serve as her own cultivator furnace. Surprisingly, after just a few days, he had risen to become one of the highest-ranked members of the Demon Sect.

To this day, Ji Li still couldn’t understand why he dared to jump directly from Lead Peak that day.

In fact, if he had died, people would just think he was a fool. But since he survived, they saw him as daring!

Lu Xun had only been in the Demon Sect for a few days, and his name was already resonating throughout the entire sect!

All the members of the Demon Sect knew that the Master now had one more disciple.

Various discussions kept surfacing continuously.

“I heard he is incredibly handsome. Even Elder Qiu Shui of the Outer Sect mentioned during a conversation with other Outer Sect Elders that he had never seen a man more handsome than Young Elder!”

“I heard that Young Elder didn’t hesitate at all before jumping off the cliff that day and leapt straight off! We, who seek the path of Dao, should also be as daring!”

“Cultivation is about opportunities. Young Elder must be a person with great fortune!”

“I heard that Junior Sister Ji Li, the new entrant in the Outer Sect, has an exceptional talent, eight layers of Ripples. I wonder about Young Elder’s talent? It should definitely be higher than Junior Sister Ji, right?”

“I wonder when Young Elder will wake up, I really want to see if he is as handsome as the rumors say.”

Various rumors and discussions spread throughout the Outer Sect and the various main peaks of the Demon Sect, even the Elders and Deacons sometimes can’t help but talk about it. Only Sect Master Shen Yan was indulged in his pain and unable to extricate himself, focusing on being a melancholic pickled egg.

Now, everyone in the Demon Sect was waiting for Lu Xun to wake up.

“When will you awaken?”

Ji Li sat by the bed looking at Lu Xun, supporting her cheek with her right hand, her slightly chubby face being squished into a curve.

…

…

Outside the Small Study, Mao Nanbei had been sunbathing on a rattan chair for a long time and was almost falling asleep. She opened her small mouth and yawned uncontrollably.

A dark yet bright figure flashed before her eyes. With a slight flick of her eyelids, she knew who it was.

Cloaked in a black robe, shining head, and short in stature, who else could it be besides the Sect Master of Demon Sect, Shen…Yan?

The Small Study was not a place where the several Peak Masters of the main peaks could come and go as they pleased, but as the Sect Master, Shen Yan was an exception. He had permission to enter and exit the Small Study on the back mountain, but he rarely did so in his spare time.

“Greetings, Elder Uncle.” Shen Yan greeted.

Mao Nanbei stretched lazily, looking a bit like a little kitty cat basking in the sun and relaxing her limbs.

“What’s the matter?” She asked.

Shen Yan replied, “I came to see how Young Elder’s injuries are healing.”

“That’s all?” Mao Nanbei asked again.

Shen Yan nodded in confirmation.

In reality, he did have other matters, but it was inconvenient to mention to Mao Nanbei and he felt embarrassed to speak about it.

Shen Yan was a renowned giant in the cultivation world, the Sect Master of the mighty Demon Sect, and a top-tier big shot.

However, this man had a characteristic – he was incredibly stingy.

The loss of a top-tier Spirit Pill was a painful hit for him, and he was always contemplating on how to compensate for it somewhere else.

After racking his brain for a few days, an idea finally struck him!

And so, he hurriedly rushed over.

Looking at Mao Nanbei, Shen Yan thought for a moment before saying: “Elder Aunt, I will stay for a while. You can rest.”

Mao Nanbei’s cat ears perked up instantly; she jumped from her chair and disappeared in a puff of smoke.

She was still childish at heart and couldn’t sit still.

The reason she had been sitting outside the Small Study, seemingly sunning herself, was in fact to guard over Lu Xun.

After all, his injuries had been severe. Although he was now recovering well, it was better to have someone watching over him.

Ji Li had only just stepped into the cultivation world, she could only do some miscellaneous tasks. In case an accident occurred, a cultivator would need to get involved.

The Master and Lu Xun together made up five disciples. The eldest brother was in isolation, and the third brother was traveling with the Master, leaving only her and the second sister at home.

The second sister was cold in nature and due to certain special reasons was temporarily unable to leave the bamboo forest, so Mao Nanbei had to take responsiblity on her own.

Making a child like her sit still for several days continuously was indeed asking too much.

But Lu Xun was after all the person she brought back, and he had also become her little junior brother, so Mao Nanbei still felt a certain amount of responsibility.

Now that Shen Yan was here to watch over things, nothing could possibly go wrong, and she could go out and stretch her legs!

Cats were naturally agile, and Mao Nanbei, being a little cat demon, was even more so. Not even flying, she ran wildly around the back mountain, heading towards the bamboo forest.

In the middle of the bamboo forest, a woman with the appearance of a Taoist Nun was still sitting on a large rock.

She seemed to be growing on this rock, meditating here day after day.

As Mao Nanbei approached her, her speed was still very fast, but utterly silent.

Cats naturally make little noise when they move, always able to silent approach and then deliver a fatal blow to the prey!

Not far from the woman, Mao Nanbei made a leap, pouncing towards the woman on the rock.

Children love to play tricks.

Just as her small hand was about to touch the wooden hairpin in the woman’s hair, the woman suddenly moved.

With her back to Mao Nanbei, a wave of her sleeve released a wave of energy that enveloped Mao Nanbei.

She lifted her hand and with a gesture in the air, Mao Nanbei fell into her hand.

The woman’s actions were swift. Extending a finger, she lightly tapped Mao Nanbei’s forehead. A white light danced at her finger, shattering Mao Nanbei’s transformation with a single strike!

With her transformation broken, she was no longer in the form of a little catgirl, but directly transformed into a little black cat.

The woman moved her hand back, placing Mao Nanbei on her crossed legs.

Her right hand hidden under her Daoist robe was fair, slender, and boneless. If anyone with a hand fetish saw this hand, they would certainly be fascinated.

She reached out wanting to stroke Mao Nanbei’s head, touch her cat ears, and smooth her fur.

Mao Nanbei turned around, looking indignantly embarrassed. She stretched out her chubby cat paw to hold the woman’s right hand, preventing her from touching.

The woman did not care and withdrew her hand to pet Mao Nanbei’s little stomach instead.

Mao Nanbei continued to hold her hand with her cat paw, preventing her again.

After three times like this, she seemingly resigned to fate, lying on the woman’s crossed legs and squinting to enjoy the feel of the woman’s slender fingers stroking her fur.

Her petting technique was excellent.

Mao Nanbei finally let go of all her pride, and then, squinting her eyes, let out a very faint meow:

“Meow~”
