Quick Transmigration: Kitten's Healing Handbook - Chapter 140
Chapter 140: The Immortal Lord’s Cat (part 11)
Xuan Qingci smoothed Liuli’s fur: “I’ll take you to the Icy Pond when we get back. ”
Liuli used her tail to swipe Xuan Qingci’s chin, indicating agreement.
They didn’t wait for Yu Youyou and returned to their room.
Liuli didn’t mention what had just happened to Xuan Qingci. She believed that Yu Youyou wouldn’t have the face to report such a shameful incident—a Nascent Soul losing to a Golden Core.
Seeing her take pills to heal her wounds, it was highly likely that she had swallowed the loss herself.
Regardless of Yu Youyou’s original intentions, they certainly hadn’t succeeded.
Neither Xuan Qingci nor Liuli paid attention to when Yu Youyou returned. When they went back to the Sect the next day, there was no trace of the previous day’s frenzy.
Delicate hair ornaments, elegant Disciple Robes—she was still that pretty and cute Junior Martial Sister.
“Master, are we going back to the Sect now? ”
This trip out was suggested by Yu Youyou. Xuan Qingci still respected her wishes, so he asked for her opinion: “Is there anywhere else you want to go? ”
“No, Master, let’s go back. ”
Yu Youyou confirmed with the System that the kitten wasn’t the interference source, so she eagerly wanted to return to the Sect to look for other possibilities.
As for the kitten, out of sight, out of mind!
When Liuli returned to Sword-Holding Peak, Xuan Qingci gave her access to the Icy Pond. This was also why Liuli hadn’t noticed the Icy Pond when she first explored the Sect on her own.
But with Xuan Qingci leading the way, the Restriction was meaningless to Liuli.
Liuli herself wasn’t serious about cultivation. After all, she was naturally lazy, and her cultivation level grew naturally.
But she couldn’t resist Tuánzi’s constant supervision and urging. Xuan Qingci had also set up Spirit Gathering Formations for every Magical Artifact he gave her. He didn’t say it out loud, but it was clearly a way to urge her to cultivate.
Liuli reluctantly cultivated by the Icy Pond. In just half a month, the Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation descended.
For an outsider like her who came to undergo the Trial, the Heavenly Dao’s Thunder Tribulation was perfunctory. Before Xuan Qingci could worry, three bolts of lightning had already struck, and the Thundercloud dispersed.
Xuan Qingci gave Liuli a Pill. Before Tuánzi could remind her, Liuli swallowed it without hesitation.
“Master! This Pill has a problem! ”
Liuli felt nothing: “What problem could there be? ”
Before Tuánzi could explain the effects, the effects took hold. Intense pain and soul-searing flames erupted within her body. Caught off guard, Liuli could only curl up and hug herself tightly.
“What’s going on…”
“Master, Xuan Qingci originally prepared a Transformation Pill for you, a high-quality one with basically no Side Effects.
But Yu Youyou somehow found out that you were going to Undergo Tribulation. Not being around Xuan Qingci, she used her Aura to Control him and replaced the Pill. ”
“What did she replace it with! This Pill fire is burning my Spiritual Body! It can’t cause injury, but it’s incredibly painful! Especially since this Spiritual Cat is an Ice-type Spiritual Root, the pain is doubled! ”
“Yu Youyou also replaced it with a Transformation Pill, but one for helping Fire-type Spiritual Beasts transform, containing a strong Fire Element. ”
“This effect is incompatible with my Spiritual Energy attributes, so won’t my Transformation fail? ”
“It’s not necessarily going to fail. After all, it’s still a Transformation Pill. Once you endure the effect of the Fire Element, you should be able to successfully transform. ”
“Should? ” Liuli was almost unconscious.
The biting cold of the Icy Pond and the kitten’s pained whimpers awakened the memories Xuan Qingci had lost while under control.
“Liuli! I’m sorry, it’s all my fault…” Xuan Qingci could only send more Spiritual Energy to Liuli to counteract the Fire Element Spiritual Energy in the Transformation Pill.
Liuli was in too much pain to respond to him. With the Spiritual Energy Xuan Qingci infused, she did feel a little better, and her Condition gradually improved.
Ice-blue Spiritual Energy surrounded Liuli, and the cold air of the Icy Pond also wrapped around her. The kitten’s small body elongated, transforming into a girl’s form.
Perhaps the effects of the Transformation Pill hadn’t been fully converted into energy Liuli could absorb. Liuli’s ears remained cat ears—fluffy, snow-white ears that trembled slightly atop her head. Her tail also changed with her body, but didn’t disappear.
Xuan Qingci held the girl, feeling the delicate touch. Constantly monitoring her Condition, Xuan Qingci quickly averted his gaze and placed the Disciple Robes he had prepared on Liuli.
Seeing Xuan Qingci’s flushed ears, Liuli felt like teasing him.
Liuli wrapped her tail around Xuan Qingci’s wrist, pulling it in front of her to the clothes, using the same cold, yet innocent and lively voice she usually used for Voice Transmission: “Master, I can’t dress myself. ”
Xuan Qingci felt that even the cold air of the Icy Pond couldn’t suppress his agitation. Knowing that the kitten was teasing him, his little secret thoughts kept him from exposing Liuli.
The young girl wasn’t shy at all, so could a cultivator who had lived for hundreds of years be more reserved than her?
Thinking this, Xuan Qingci no longer avoided Liuli’s gaze. He calmly picked up the Disciple Robes, helped Liuli stand up, and was about to help her dress.
But there was no Bellyband or Undergarment. Xuan Qingci hadn’t expected this situation. Seeing Xuan Qingci’s momentary bewilderment, Liuli, with a mischievous smile, took a warm yellow Bellyband and a plain Undergarment from her Crystallite Storage Space and handed them to Xuan Qingci.
“I would also like to trouble Master with these two items. ”
Liuli’s snow-white skin, in the cold mist of the Icy Pond, seemed to be covered with a layer of silver frost, captivating to behold.
Xuan Qingci appeared calm, but the slight tremor in his fingertips and the burning temperature when he took the undergarments betrayed his inner turmoil.
After dressing Liuli, Xuan Qingci pushed her out of the Icy Pond, but remained inside himself. Liuli’s silver bell-like laughter reached Xuan Qingci’s ears, arousing no blame, only a helpless smile as he submerged himself in the Icy Pond.
Liuli waited in Xuan Qingci’s Immortal’s Cave, her tail swaying restlessly behind her. She lay down on his Meditation Cushion, in a sleeping posture like that of a kitten, yet alluring.
Liuli felt that she was like the Green Snake who enticed Fahai to fall into the mortal world of Love, not giving Xuan Qingci a moment’s respite.
Unfortunately, before Xuan Qingci returned, Liuli fell asleep, having been quite exhausted by the Transformation Pill.
When Xuan Qingci returned, seeing the kitten nestled on his Meditation Cushion, sleeping soundly, his heart softened immensely.
He also felt guilty for his own Negligence in letting Yu Youyou trick him again, almost harming Liuli…
The next day, Xuan Qingci noticed Liuli waking up and sincerely apologized: “It’s all my fault that I let my guard down that day and didn’t bring my Sword with me, giving Yu Youyou an opportunity. If something truly happened to you, I wouldn’t be able to atone for my guilt even if I killed myself…”
Liuli used her tail to lift Xuan Qingci’s chin, placing her hand on his chest, and smirked confidently: “Master, rest assured, this meow won’t give you a chance to kill yourself. “
