Quick Transmigration: Kitten's Healing Handbook - Chapter 148
Chapter 148: The Immortal Lord’s Cat (part 19)
Jun Jiu Xi took Yu Youyou to a secluded mountain cave, set up a concealment formation outside the cave, and then explained the subsequent arrangements to Yu Youyou.
“I heard from the Wu Wang Sect that in half a month, after Xuan Qingci recovers from his injuries, he will take a group of disciples into the Secret Realm for trials. At that time, I will take you in with them.
This is a Demonic Path Stone that can induce Inner Demons. You only need to approach Xuan Qingci and place the stone within ten meters of him. I will handle the rest.
Once Xuan Qingci’s Inner Demon arises, and he is too weak to supervise the disciples, we will eliminate those disciples. ”
Yu Youyou, though worried that holding the Demonic Path Stone might affect her, had no choice and no room to bargain.
“Yes, I guarantee I will complete the mission as you ordered, sir. ”
Liuli recalled that this Secret Realm trip was the point in the original novel where Xuan Qingci was seriously injured, leading to his eventual demise. Yu Youyou had run away a month and a half ago, and the Sect had been searching for her without success.
She hadn’t even met the original novel’s Male Lead, Jun Jiu Xi yet, and didn’t know his motives. She wondered if she would encounter the Male Lead from the novel during this Secret Realm trip…
Through Liuli’s efforts over the past month, her cultivation had reached the Late Nascent Soul Stage. Among the younger generation of disciples, she was considered exceptionally talented.
However, Liuli knew that her rapid cultivation progress was largely due to her high Soul quality and overwhelming mental state.
She didn’t need trials to temper her Dao Heart and stabilize her Cultivation Realm. Having been by her Master’s side for many years, coupled with her Original Body’s age, her perspective was beyond what cultivators in these small worlds could achieve in several lifetimes.
Therefore, her cultivation process was simply the absorption, storage, accumulation, compression, and expansion of Spiritual Energy, completing her advancement.
Her absorption of Spiritual Energy was also more efficient than other cultivators, naturally making her cultivation speed faster.
Moreover, the Late Nascent Soul Stage wasn’t her limit, but the limit of this Spiritual Cat body.
With Liuli’s Late Nascent Soul Stage cultivation, her request to accompany her Master to the Secret Realm was met without objection from Sect Master Mingxin.
And Yu Youyou hadn’t been found yet. According to Xuan Qingci’s report, this Spiritual Cat’s paws naturally carried the Clear Heart Incantation, a natural skill extremely effective against Yu Youyou’s Evil Sorcery. Liuli’s presence would be beneficial.
This trip to the Secret Realm might also involve Jun Jiu Xi. To lessen his guard, Liuli deliberately concealed her cultivation, reverting to her small Spiritual Cat form, nestled in Xuan Qingci’s embrace throughout the journey.
Yu Youyou might be wary of her, given that Liuli, at the Golden Core Stage, had previously fought evenly with her at the Nascent Soul Stage. However, Jun Jiu Xi, who didn’t know her or only heard rumors, would likely have less suspicion.
This information disparity would allow her to play a more significant role if she encountered Yu Youyou and Jun Jiu Xi in the Secret Realm.
Jun Jiu Xi suggested going to the Secret Realm because he knew the System’s target was always those with great strength. He himself was undoubtedly powerful, but this time, coming as an avatar was a test, to see if the System was interested in an avatar like him.
It seemed that only his Original Body could attract the System’s attention. Jun Jiu Xi didn’t care about killing or not killing the Wu Wang Sect disciples; he wanted the System to react so that he could catch it.
He had questions for it, and he wanted to destroy it completely…
After years of research, he had finally developed a formation capable of capturing and destroying the System. He had waited a long time for this day!
Using the Demonic Path Stone to draw out Xuan Qingci’s Inner Demon was a way he thought might cause the System to react. Xuan Qingci’s life or death was not within his consideration.
After entering the Secret Realm, the disciples dispersed for trials, while Xuan Qingci monitored the situation of each disciple through their tokens.
Casualties during normal trials were not within Xuan Qingci’s jurisdiction. Trials were about survival of the fittest; he monitored only abnormal mutual killings or attacks by outsiders on Sect disciples.
Because Xuan Qingci’s Spiritual Sense was strong enough to monitor all disciples, Liuli, possessing similarly strong Spiritual Sense, was given some of the monitoring tasks to lighten his burden.
Xuan Qingci knew Liuli was concerned about his recent recovery and didn’t want him to overwork himself. While it wasn’t much of a burden, he didn’t refuse Ali’s kindness and assigned her the supervision of three disciples.
Out of over a hundred disciples, Liuli was assigned only three. Liuli glanced at Xuan Qingci, thinking, “Fine. ”
It was rare for her to be willing to work, but since her dear A Ci didn’t want her to overwork, there was nothing she could do.
Approaching the Secret Realm entrance, Liuli had Tuánzi monitor Yu Youyou’s movements. If she appeared in the Secret Realm, near them or any Wu Wang Sect disciples, she was to be notified immediately.
Yu Youyou, being the beloved daughter of this small world, was too troublesome to kill!
Liuli felt annoyed and wanted to give the Heavenly Dao the middle finger, but she refrained. After all, under someone else’s eaves, she couldn’t be too arrogant.
Just before the Secret Realm entrance closed, Tuánzi discovered Yu Youyou, who had entered in disguise, accompanied by an unfamiliar man.
“Master, Yu Youyou has entered, disguised as this,” Tuánzi transmitted the image to Liuli. “There’s a man with her that I haven’t seen before. ”
Liuli frowned slightly. The power of Destiny’s Trajectory was formidable. Their actions had already made the current situation vastly different from the original novel, yet the Female Lead would still become entangled with the Male Lead.
At this time, the only person who could be with Yu Youyou would be the original novel’s Male Lead, Jun Jiu Xi.
In the book, Jun Jiu Xi also became controlled by the Aura, but later, Yu Youyou genuinely fell in love with Jun Jiu Xi. Driven by love, she revealed the secret about her System to Jun Jiu Xi, and they devoured the System together.
The novel’s ending was truly unexpected. Yu Youyou, who had used the Aura for the entire novel, ultimately sold out the System due to her infatuation.
Considering the original plot, the System had been of great help to Yu Youyou. It’s hard to imagine that under those circumstances, Yu Youyou would betray the System that had helped her so much for Jun Jiu Xi.
If this small world needed a plausible fate, without her unexpected existence, Jun Jiu Xi might have been plotting against Yu Youyou or the System she possessed.
Therefore, this Jun Jiu Xi wasn’t a good person either.
Liuli continually monitored the two’s movements through Tuánzi’s shared perspective.
Perhaps due to Jun Jiu Xi’s high cultivation, he skillfully avoided all the disciples undergoing trials while he escorted Yu Youyou.
Liuli’s frown deepened. If they weren’t here to cause trouble for the Wu Wang Sect disciples, then they must be targeting Xuan Qingci!
No matter what they planned to do, even if struck by Heavenly Dao’s Thunderbolt, or even thrown out of the small world, she would protect Xuan Qingci this time!
