Senior Sister Is Too Weak and Cannot Take Care Of Herself (Transmigration) - Chapter 21

She… really wants to live in this house?

Qin Su couldn’t help but scrutinize Tang Huan. Tang Huan’s eyes were filled with a pleading look, and her expression was incredibly earnest, not at all like she was joking.

It wasn’t that she couldn’t let her live there; after all, the cave dwelling was meant for her anyway.

It’s just that this house was perfect for a spirit pet, but far too simple for Tang Huan.

With that thought, Qin Su took some extra effort to expand the house, add some furniture and utensils, and set aside a separate, smaller house for the spirit beast. She also didn’t forget the small kitchen Tang Huan so desired. Fearing the sounds from the kitchen would disturb the future “rabbit,” Qin Su thoughtfully placed the kitchen at the other end of the house.

Qin Su’s slender fingers flew, forming one intricate incantation after another. She herself barely moved, as if an invisible, powerful hand in the air was doing all the work. A finely crafted bamboo building rose from the ground according to her will.

This was another side of Qin Su that Tang Huan had never seen.

While the usually sickly Qin Su filled Tang Huan with deep sympathy, this Qin Su, who effortlessly manipulated arrays with the grace of a stroll in the park, made Tang Huan’s heart tremble with excitement.

This was the number one female disciple of the Tianxuan Sect!

Even if her physical health couldn’t compare to other disciples, in the fields of medicine and arrays, Qin Su had no equal in the sect.

Tang Huan understood more and more why the sect elders and disciples loved and protected Qin Su so much.

Before long, Qin Su had everything ready.

She carefully examined the newly built houses, but her usual smile was absent.

Her brow furrowed slightly, and her gaze toward Tang Huan carried a clear sense of apology. “Junior Sister, this is all I could manage in a rush. Please bear with it for a few days, and I’ll find time to redecorate it later.”

When Tang Huan said she wanted to move in, Qin Su realized a problem. Tang Huan was still young, a time when one loved luxury and excitement. While her cave dwelling was rich in spiritual energy, it looked quite simple, a stark contrast to Tang Huan’s original lavish home.

Fortunately, the cave dwelling hadn’t been given to her yet. She still had a chance to redecorate it.

Tang Huan, however, was happily circling the new house.

She was very pleased with the changes to Qin Su’s cave dwelling. It now had three small houses and looked much more organized, finally resembling a normal cave dwelling.

But since Qin Su had said so, Tang Huan, who had always felt that Qin Su didn’t know how to enjoy life, naturally wouldn’t object. She fully affirmed Qin Su’s words. “Senior Sister should definitely redecorate the cave dwelling.”

Then, thinking that Qin Su was always so detached from worldly affairs, barely owning a few sets of clothes and likely not having many spirit stones, and having already “stolen” a house from her, Tang Huan couldn’t possibly take advantage of Qin Su on these small details as well. She couldn’t help but add, “But let me handle the redecoration! I feel really bad for getting a house from you for nothing…”

Tang Huan, who had been willing to sneak in at midnight to build a house, was clearly not someone who would feel bad. Qin Su didn’t believe her for a second.

However, she decided to let Tang Huan handle the arrangements since the cave dwelling would eventually be hers anyway. She nodded slightly. “Then I’ll trouble you, Junior Sister.”

Once she finishes decorating, I’ll find some magical artifacts to give her. I won’t let her be at a disadvantage.

The matter was thus settled.

Tang Huan glanced at the still-dark sky and immediately shifted her demeanor. She picked up the little Thunder Beast and sternly supervised Qin Su, making sure she returned to her room to rest.

She claimed that she would also take a nap in the house, but she wasn’t sleepy at all. She happily rolled around in the new house a few times, then focused on cultivating for a while. When the sky gradually brightened, she used her new kitchen to cook a hot bowl of noodles and a few pastries for Qin Su, just as she had wished.

Watching Qin Su eat seriously, her complexion seeming to have improved, Tang Huan could barely contain her smile.

She had never imagined that in just a few short days, she would be able to live in Qin Su’s cave dwelling and own a house there. It all felt like a dream.

If Ren Jingmu found out, he would probably turn green with envy.

Tang Huan stayed in Qin Su’s cave dwelling for almost an entire day.

The spiritual energy in Qin Su’s home was astonishingly dense. Although Qin Su didn’t have much spiritual power herself, she was very knowledgeable. A few pointers from her were enough to give Tang Huan a sudden enlightenment.

While cultivating, Tang Huan also supervised Qin Su’s rest and prepared her lunch and dinner. She didn’t return to her own cave dwelling until the sun had set.

Tang Huan didn’t really want to go back. She was having a great time with Qin Su and felt a sense of accomplishment being with her. But she had lied about wanting to raise a pet here, and Qin Su had even thoughtfully found her a protective Thunder Beast. Tang Huan had to find a spirit beast to raise.

Tang Huan didn’t know where to look for a spirit beast, so she asked Wang Mengyao.

It wasn’t a difficult task for Wang Mengyao. “Those rare spirit beasts are in the deep mountains and forests. You need a special opportunity to find them. As for common spirit beasts, many of our Senior Brothers and Sisters have them. How about I help you ask around and see whose spirit beast has given birth to cubs?”

*******

The next day, Wang Mengyao came back with news, saying that seven or eight of the disciples’ spirit beasts had recently had cubs and invited Tang Huan to check them out.

After coaxing Qin Su to rest at noon, Tang Huan planned to be quick and use this time to go with Wang Mengyao to look at the spirit beasts.

Perhaps because the Thunder Beast was still young and hadn’t awakened its abilities yet, its temperament was unusually docile. However, for some reason, whenever Tang Huan played with the little Thunder Beast, she always felt it looked at her with a hint of sorrow and resentment.

Since she already had one Thunder Beast that might become irritable when it grew up, the other spirit beast had to be gentle and timid to prevent it from getting into a fight with the Thunder Beast later.

For this reason, Tang Huan didn’t take an interest in any of the common spirit beasts that looked like tigers or lions, but most of the spirit beasts in this era were used as mounts and looked quite majestic.

After hearing Tang Huan’s request, Wang Mengyao was also at a loss. She couldn’t immediately think of anyone who raised a spirit beast that looked relatively weak, so she promised to give Tang Huan more information the next day.

Tang Huan figured Qin Su would be waking up soon, so she decided to head back to Baiwu Peak and continue her search in a couple of days. But to her surprise, she ran into an ashen-faced Ren Jingmu on the way at Moyu Peak.

Standing in front of Ren Jingmu was a handsome male cultivator holding a sword, with a face showing no emotions. The two were standing next to a grove of trees, and what Tang Huan found incredibly strange was that many small spirit beasts were huddled in the bushes next to the forest, all looking at the unfamiliar cultivator with eager eyes.

Aside from matters involving Qin Su, Ren Jingmu had always maintained a graceful image in the sect. Who was this cultivator to make Ren Jingmu so angry?

Tang Huan was curious and then heard Wang Mengyao “haha” laughing next to her.

“That’s Liu Fei. He’s a new Junior Brother who’s a sword fanatic,” Wang Mengyao introduced. “He has an excellent constitution and is dedicated to cultivation. He enters the Dao through battle and specifically challenges those with higher cultivation than himself to practice.”

“I heard he’s been challenging Senior Brother Ren for half a month, and Senior Brother Ren now avoids him…”

No wonder she hadn’t seen Ren Jingmu much lately. So that’s what happened.

Tang Huan was stunned, then couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Ren Jingmu seemed unwilling to fight Liu Fei and turned to leave with a livid face. But just as he turned, a spirit beast with fiery red eyes and snow-white fur, looking like a rabbit, darted out from who knows where. It shot toward Ren Jingmu like an arrow released from a bow, ran straight into his leg, and was knocked unconscious, collapsing on its back.

After not seeing him for a few days, has Ren Jingmu’s protagonist aura become so strong that even spirit beasts would run into him?

Tang Huan’s eyes widened, and then she heard Wang Mengyao laughing again. “And this Junior Brother Liu is a remarkable person. I don’t know why, but he’s a magnet for spirit beasts. He often has spirit beasts squatting at his feet, begging him to take them in. It’s a shame that Junior Brother Liu hasn’t taken a liking to any of them. That spirit beast probably got too excited seeing him and accidentally ran into Senior Brother Ren…”

So it wasn’t because of Ren Jingmu!

Tang Huan breathed a sigh of relief. Her gaze fell on the unconscious, stupid spirit beast that Ren Jingmu had kicked aside, and she began to have an idea…
