Quick Transmigration: Kitten's Healing Handbook - Chapter 137

Chapter 137: The Immortal Lord’s Cat (part 8)

Xuan Qingci browsed the shop meticulously, noting many interesting styles. He planned to design a unique piece of jewelry for Liuli after her transformation, combining aesthetics with unique, embedded properties.

Xuan Qingci had the shopkeeper exchange the coins for Low-Grade Spirit Stones to pay, and Yu Youyou contentedly stored all the jewelry in her Storage Ring.

Incidentally, this Storage Ring was one of the reasons for her resentment towards the kitten. Their disciples’ Storage Rings were exchanged using their Sect contribution points, but the kitten received hers as a gift from Xuan Qingci after becoming his disciple.

They did receive disciple gifts upon becoming Xuan Qingci’s disciples, but compared to the kitten’s, theirs felt inferior.

A mere Golden Core Stage ordinary Spiritual Beast, why did it receive such gifts and favor from Master?

The golden lock around the kitten’s neck was clearly a newly refined Magical Artifact from Master. Compared to the ordinary jewelry Master bought for her, it was truly worlds apart!

The shopkeeper received the Spirit Stones, his smile becoming much more genuine: “May the two Immortals have a pleasant journey, and welcome back anytime! ”

It’s rare for Cultivation World individuals to stroll leisurely in the Mortal Realm, especially spending Spirit Stones. Even if cultivators came for the Lantern Festival, they wouldn’t care for their ordinary goods, and even if they did buy something, they rarely paid with Spirit Stones.

Xuan Qingci and Yu Youyou could be considered a handsome man and beautiful woman, yet no one mistook them for a couple, naturally because Xuan Qingci always kept a distance from Yu Youyou.

Their occasional eye contact lacked any romantic atmosphere, appearing more like an elder taking a junior out.

Liuli on Xuan Qingci’s shoulder attracted the attention of many girls. However, due to Xuan Qingci’s cold demeanor, no one dared to approach, only watching from afar.

Xiao Yun’er is the Young Miss of the Wuling Clan. The Wuling Clan is located in another direction of Xingquan Town, closer than the Wu Wang Sect.

As long as Xiao Yun’er wasn’t in seclusion, she would come to Xingquan Town for the Lantern Festival every year.

Xiao Yun’er had been eyeing the kitten for a while. Since she couldn’t see through the man’s cultivation—clearly much higher than hers—she didn’t dare to stare, only following at a safe distance.

Seeing them leave the Jewelry Shop, Xiao Yun’er finally made up her mind. Continuously following wasn’t a method; it was better to bravely ask.

Thinking this, Xiao Yun’er approached: “Senior, may I pet this Spiritual Cat? It’s so cute! ”

Therefore, brave people enjoy the world first. Liuli didn’t need Xuan Qingci’s permission. Sensing Xiao Yun’er’s genuine affection and lack of malice, she nuzzled her head towards her, inviting her to pet her.

Xiao Yun’er glanced at the cold man, seeing no objection before reaching out to pet the kitten again and again.

The kitten’s fur felt so soft and smooth. I really want to take it home～

Wow! The kitten comfortably purred! This is the greatest encouragement and reward for a cat lover like her!

Seeing the kitten nearly nestled into someone else’s arms, Xuan Qingci reached out, embracing it: “Miss, we need to go elsewhere. We’ll take our leave. ”

Xiao Yun’er shivered from his icy words, wisely making way, but couldn’t help shouting: “I’m Xiao Yun’er from the Wuling Clan. Kitten, remember to find me if you’re going out to play! ”

Liuli poked her head out from Xuan Qingci’s embrace, meowing in response, but was pulled back by Xuan Qingci.

Liuli looked at him amusedly: “Master, are you jealous? She’s a girl, what’s there to be jealous about～”

Xuan Qingci stubbornly said: “This one is not. ”

Liuli said with unrestrained laughter: “Then let go of your hand. ”

Xuan Qingci released his hand from Liuli’s head but held her tighter: “This one will never let go. ”

Liuli looked at Xuan Qingci, whose expression remained unchanged. Was that a confession?

So insincere, she wouldn’t accept it.

Xuan Qingci wasn’t in a hurry when Liuli didn’t respond. The kitten hadn’t even transformed into a human yet, it was too early to say these things.

The time before the Lantern Festival quietly passed in daytime strolls and evening cultivation.

During this time, Liuli also happily received a fish-shaped small pillow containing sleep-inducing medicinal herbs and spices. Liuli slept exceptionally soundly these two days.

When the Xingquan City Lantern Festival fireworks exploded, Xuan Qingci took Yu Youyou to the roof. Liuli curled up in his arms, watching the fireworks display, a spectacle completely different from modern ones. Her heterochromatic eyes reflected the brilliant colors, captivating anyone.

Yu Youyou, watching the magnificent fireworks, rarely let go of her calculations, not looking at Xuan Qingci and the kitten beside her, enjoying this moment of peace and beauty.

After the brilliant fireworks display, the liveliness on the streets only just began.

“Candied Osmanthus! Freshly made Candied Osmanthus! ” Amber-colored candied osmanthus pieces in the vendor’s bamboo basket emitted an Osmanthus fragrance.

Liuli wrapped her tail around Xuan Qingci’s wrist: “Master! That candy smells so good! ”

Xuan Qingci hadn’t been to the Mortal Realm for many years and didn’t have coins, so he always paid with Spirit Stones. However, a Low-Grade Spirit Stone left the candy vendor at a loss, waving his hands repeatedly: “It’s an honor to have an Immortal visit. I’m a small business, I can’t make change for this…”

Yu Youyou could guess the candy was for the kitten, secretly and subtly saying: “It’s just a kitten’s snack. Can it eat for free? ”

Yu Youyou took out a few copper coins she had exchanged with Outer Disciples earlier, smiling kindly as she handed them to the vendor.

Xuan Qingci understood that Yu Youyou was implying Liuli was spoiled, but since she had helped him out, he couldn’t say anything more. Though he didn’t really need help.

In front of the long street’s riddle stand, a blue-peacock-and-pearl lantern hung. Liuli hooked her paws onto Xuan Qingci’s clothes, standing upright, showing great interest in the lantern.

Yu Youyou noticed the kitten’s fondness for the lantern. The riddle was the next line of “The moon rises, startling the mountain birds”.

Yu Youyou answered before Xuan Qingci: “Their songs fill the spring stream. ”

Yu Youyou proudly received the lantern from the riddle-giver, deliberately waving it in front of the kitten, using Voice Transmission: “Envious? Mine. ”

Liuli didn’t necessarily want the lantern; it merely caught her eye. Liuli’s cold, girlish voice echoed in Yu Youyou’s Spiritual Sense for the first time: “Childish. ”

Unwilling to let this small matter affect her mood, or to see Xuan Qingci and Yu Youyou each carrying a lantern like a couple, Liuli showed no further interest in any lanterns.

Wandering the streets adorned with various lanterns was already quite pleasing.
