Mistaking My Wife for a Spirit Pet - Chapter 31
Chapter 31
“Where are you going?” Her friend, who loved a good time, came closer. “What are you mumbling about?”
Nan Zhi’s footsteps paused. She looked around.
Shen Mian didn’t follow her?
Good.
She expressionlessly took out a Misfortune Talisman and stuck it on her.
The parallel Ning Wan suddenly tilted her body, stumbled a big step forward, and bumped into the person next to her without warning.
That person happened to be Li Qiu. She folded her arms and turned around, immediately starting her sarcasm. “Ning Wan? Aren’t you busy flirting at the Ancient Moon Pavilion?”
Ning Wan: …
Nan Zhi: …
What’s wrong with this cat? Why can she say something sarcastic about flirting to anyone she bumps into?
Just as her mind went blank, sabers suddenly fell from the sky again.
The three of them were caught off guard. They were almost decapitated. Just in time, Shen Mian and Chi Xi walked over and removed the Misfortune Talisman.
Standing still again, Li Qiu let out a heavy snort. Her gaze fell on Chi Xi. “Chi Xi? Yu Siqi is flirting with someone else, and you’re not going to do anything?”
Chi Xi: …
After being sarcastic to two people in a row without solving her baldness, Li Qiu’s gaze shifted backward. It was the one who was flirting with Ning Wan.
But—
She clicked her tongue. “Tsk tsk.”
Besides that, there was nothing else.
At this, everyone became curious. After all, Li Qiu, this fearless cat, dared to be sarcastic to anyone she saw. Her unyielding nature and numerous romantic affairs had also spread throughout the Nine Provinces. So why did she only spare Shen Mian?
Nan Zhi looked sideways. Chi Xi turned her head. Ning Wan asked, “What did you do to her?”
Shen Mian’s tone was flat. “Nothing.”
The Miaoyin Sect and the Yuyin Sect had been enemies for many years. In the past, Li Qiu’s first target to attack was naturally her, but later, she never saw this cat running in front of her to bother her again.
She didn’t do much, it was just—
Every time she provoked her, she would make her hear the sound of iron scraping wood. As a result, this weasel cat would get all riled up and run away every time she saw her.
Seeing that her secret was not revealed, Li Qiu let out a soft snort. She sized up the group of people. Suddenly, her nose twitched, and her gaze landed on Nan Zhi.
“I said, why does it smell so bad…” She paused for a second, looking at Nan Zhi with no fear. “It turns out it’s that clumsy tiger’s smell.”
Nan Zhi: …
She thought this weasel cat’s mouth had skipped her, but it turned out it just hadn’t been her turn yet. She waved her hand again. Sealing her sense of smell was already a practiced skill.
“You—” Li Qiu’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Nan Zhi waved her hand again. Spiritual energy entered Li Qiu’s body.
Today, the Nine Provinces gained another cat that was both deaf and mute.
And that cat was furious. She clearly forgot her bald form and immediately transformed into a cat and jumped.
What everyone saw was—
A fat, bald cat pouncing at Nan Zhi’s face. In her shock, a slender hand caught the fat cat in her arms.
“Aren’t you embarrassed enough?”
She was suddenly restrained. Li Qiu raised her head. Her body instantly froze. She subconsciously covered her head and played dead.
It was the leader of her Yuyin Sect—Feng Zhiwei.
Feng Zhiwei scratched the weasel cat’s bald head. “Have you been spreading rumors outside again recently?”
Li Qiu covered her head and played dead.
Could she spread them?
She could spread that the Ancient Moon Pavilion forcibly married an unknown rogue cultivator and that the rogue cultivator escaped ninety-nine times. Of course, she would never admit to this kind of thing.
“No! Ever since last time you told me, I haven’t dared to spread rumors again!”
“…”
As smart as Feng Zhiwei, how could she not know that Li Qiu was being duplicitous? The matter with Nan Zhi was spread far and wide, and it was all thanks to this cat. If she hadn’t found out by accident, she would have still been in the dark.
She patted the cat’s head. “Was yesterday’s lesson not enough?”
Li Qiu’s expression changed slightly. She glared at everyone, then looked at Feng Zhiwei flatteringly. “It’s enough, it’s enough~”
Everyone’s expressions froze. They were all speechless.
They thought it was jaw-dropping that Li Qiu feared Shen Mian, but who would have thought that she would be so obedient in Feng Zhiwei’s hands?
But—
Feng Zhiwei soon walked away with Li Qiu in her arms.
On the way, Li Qiu couldn’t help but ask, “Senior Sister, did you smell that clumsy tiger’s scent?”
“What does that have to do with you?”
Li Qiu let out a dry “oh” and then said, “I heard that the tiger’s bride price is ten spiritual mountains. When the East Sea takes half of them, they’ll give back the Phoenix Tree Mountain, so you don’t have to…”
“Li Qiu, you’re very gossipy.”
Li Qiu: …
She was a little gossipy, but wasn’t she just looking at her Yuyin Sect’s boss, who was so worried that she was losing hair and her fur was no longer shiny?
But…
“Did you know that the clumsy tiger has already gone to propose?”
Feng Zhiwei patted the cat’s head and scolded, “Stop meddling.”
Li Qiu protested, “I’m not meddling. I’m clearly worried about you and Nan Zhi’s matter!”
They were talking past each other.
Feng Zhiwei sighed, feeling very helpless:
“Do you believe it just because you keep spreading it?”
“If you keep spreading it like this, both Nan Zhi and I will be in an embarrassing situation.”
“But you clearly know—I have a lover.”
Li Qiu silently closed her mouth. She secretly glanced at Feng Zhiwei and whispered an explanation, “Well, I haven’t met them, so you’re just making up friends!”
Feng Zhiwei: …
She threw her hand and threw the fat cat far away.
“Ah—”
The cat drew a beautiful arc in the sky and, with a “plop,” fell straight into the water.
…
Yu Siqi won the match. According to the order of the draw, the next match was between Feng Zhiwei and a disciple of the Hehuan Sect, Chi Xi.
A bird and a fish, with a natural restraint. The result was predictable.
Everyone, including Nan Zhi, was wrong.
Chi Xi won.
The Hehuan Sect disciples cheered. The Yuyin Sect disciples were dejected. Nan Zhi sighed and watched as Li Qiu trotted over to help Feng Zhiwei up and whispered into her ear.
She couldn’t hear the voice, but she could tell from the lip-reading—
‘It’s okay, Senior Sister. I know everything about Chi Xi. Although you lost, you won in the face of the rumors!’
‘Get lost.’
Nan Zhi: …
Li Qiu is sick.
But… Feng Zhiwei is not right.
A mid-stage Soul Transformation cultivator fighting against an early-stage Soul Transformation cultivator, there was no way she could have lost, and a bird naturally restrains a fish.
There was no time to think for long. Soon, it was her turn to fight against Zhong An of the Great Buddhist Sect. On the stage, the cat, the little bird, and the green snake gathered below—it was Li Qiu, Yu Ran, and Su Qingyi.
As a Yuyin Sect person, Li Qiu, of course, was holding a megaphone and pasting Sound Explosion Talismans on it to jinx her. However, Yu Ran and Su Qingyi were not to be trifled with. The two demons looked at each other and, from the left and right, carried Li Qiu away.
Without the cat bothering her, Nan Zhi’s mood was much better.
The bronze gong sounded, and she and Zhong An both entered a battle state. The crowd below the stage also watched intently.
Suddenly—
“Boom boom boom!”
A thunderous sound came from Nan Zhi’s waist. Everyone’s expressions froze. They watched as the azure-robed cultivator on the stage raised her hand. “Wait…”
“?”
Can a fight be played like this?
But all the people of the Great Buddhist Sect were good-natured people with good tempers. Zhong An inherited this trait perfectly, so he immediately nodded and stayed where he was.
Nan Zhi picked up her communication jade and tried to see what the master of the thunder had sent.
The master of the thunder: ‘I’m here. I’ve arrived.’
Nan Zhi: ‘…’
Nan Zhi was immediately anxious, so anxious that she didn’t even want to fight.
Although she looked much better this morning, she still needed to rest for a few days. What was she doing coming here now?
Nan Zhi was so anxious that she wanted to finish the fight quickly and deal with Zhong An.
Her moves were clean and sharp, which made the Buddhist monk look stunned and unable to resist. It made the crowd exclaim in surprise.
They were surprised that the disciples of the Celestial Brush Sect were becoming more and more terrifying.
Yu Ran was, Su Qingyi was, and Nan Zhi was even more so…
Since when did the existence of a formation cultivator, who was once beaten up by everyone, evolve into someone who beats up everyone?
They thought that a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator dropping to an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator was already a downfall. Who would have thought that a few decades later, she would force a monk, who had been given all the Great Buddhist Sect’s resources, to admit defeat orally?
It was terrifying.
And that terrifying person left in a hurry after the fight, leaving the crowd to look at each other, their faces filled with confusion.
