The Hehuan Sect Enchantress’s Short-Lived Spirit Pet 49p1

Chapter 49: Sixth-Grade Pill p1

Xia Ye’s eyes and brows curved into a smile as she saw the suddenly perked-up little cat. She found that she really couldn’t understand what she meant, so she simply ruffled her head. “Little Cat, rest well. Tomorrow, Senior Sister will give you a good introduction to our valley’s industries!”

“Call me Ji Zhu!” Ji Zhu’s ears were pressed back. She didn’t want to be called the broken name that the enchantress had given her!

As expected, she should have been able to tell from the way she had given her this name so perfunctorily and without any thought that she didn’t care much about her at all!

Xia Ye blinked again and replied obediently, “Oh, I’m just used to calling you Little Cat. I’ll definitely remember to call you by your name in the future!”

Only then did Ji Zhu nod in satisfaction and find a soft place to lie down.

Seeing this situation, Xia Ye couldn’t help but feel a bit of pity for Jiang Bai, but the smile on her face, no matter how one looked at it, was full of schadenfreude.

Finally, there was a “person” who could control Jiang Bai. Let her be so arrogant in the past.

**

From then on, Ji Zhu really settled down in the Medicine King Valley. The people in the Medicine King Valley were all very good, and she lived very comfortably here. The only small matter that was not very troublesome was that it was not convenient for her to go to the Guangji Hall in the front courtyard.

From time to time, all kinds of people would come to the Guangji Hall in the front courtyard to ask for medicine. If she appeared, with so many people and eyes, it would be inevitable that some rumors would spread and be known by Jiang Bai.

The range of activities of all the people who came to ask for medicine was limited to the front courtyard, and they were forbidden to set foot in the back courtyard where the people of the Medicine King Valley lived. Therefore, as long as Ji Zhu did not run to the front courtyard herself, there was basically no risk of being exposed.

Ji Zhu also had many things to do in the Medicine King Valley. Not only did she try to refine fourth-grade pills, but she would also practice with Xia Ye’s junior sister and junior brother to improve her actual combat ability.

After all, Ji Zhu… was really not good at fighting.

Xia Ye stood on the side and watched Ji Zhu practice with her junior sister, her head in her hands with a headache.

Logically, she was a cat, so her body should be very agile, and her speed of dodging should also be very fast. But she didn’t understand why she didn’t see any of the keenness of a cat in her at all!

Once again being pinned to the ground by Shao Lian’s neck, Ji Zhu angrily slapped the ground with her paw, feeling that she had lost all her cat face!

Shao Lian quickly let go, only to see Ji Zhu wiggling and almost curling herself into a ball. It was both funny and heartbreaking.

After practicing for so long, Ji Zhu had been subdued by her in less than three moves. And this was under the circumstances that she herself was not good at fighting.

Originally, the people of the Medicine King Valley were not very good at fighting, but who knew that a Ji Zhu who was even worse had come.

Xia Ye looked at Ji Zhu’s appearance and thought for a moment, and then asked tentatively, “A-Zhu, why don’t you focus on practicing your running speed in the future?”

Since she really couldn’t fight, then she should just increase her speed.

Ji Zhu lifted her head and looked at her resentfully. In Xia Ye’s eyes, was she completely hopeless?

Xia Ye quickly raised her hand to cover her eyes, and with the other hand, she patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

“A-Zhu, don’t look at me like that.” When she looked over with that kind of gaze, it could directly soften one’s heart. She really couldn’t bear to let her do anything, and couldn’t bear to let her suffer.

Ji Zhu pouted and said mournfully, “Will I really not be able to beat anyone in the future?”

In her situation, it was fortunate that she had run to Ji Ling’s place when she had run around. If she had run out of the Hehuan Sect, the enchantress would have really had to collect her corpse.

Hearing this pitiful little voice, Xia Ye and the others couldn’t help but laugh, but they still had to cruelly tell her the truth.

“From your current situation, you probably really can’t win.”

Ji Zhu: So angry!

As expected, a good baby can’t be one for too long. If you’re one for too long, you’ll lose your sharpness!

**

Jiang Bai, who was far away in the Hehuan Sect, rubbed her throbbing temples, looked up at the entrance of the hall, and her face couldn’t help but sink again.

Even now, she could still clearly remember the figure of the little cat running out of here.

So small, and her fur would flip as she ran.

She had never come back after that.

A breath of frustration was always accumulated in Jiang Bai’s heart. For so many years, she had already used all the means she could to find her, but there was still no news of the little cat. There were even some busybodies who came to tell her that she should be mentally prepared for the little cat to be dead.

Jiang Bai only hated that she hadn’t beaten the other party to death.

Especially that Zong Cao, who had already had a lot of friction with her in the Extreme Cold Mystic Realm. Not only did he not pretend to help her find the cat, but he had even deliberately brought a cat that looked similar to the little cat and said that she should raise it to divert her attention.

This person was clearly deliberately coming to cause trouble! It was clear that the pit she had dug for him in the mystic realm back then was too small, and he still dared to come and say such things to her.

He even said that if she didn’t accept the cat he had sent, as long as she was willing to beg him, he would help Jiang Bai search for the little cat’s trace in the entire Xiling.

The premise was that she really had to beg, and bowing was not enough. The most important thing was that she had to kneel down and beg.

To make the dignified Young Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect kneel down and beg, this was no longer Jiang Bai’s own business, but to trample the entire Hehuan Sect’s face underfoot.

The reason why he dared to be so arrogant was because of his family background, right?

Jiang Bai naturally had no hesitation at all and directly beat Zong Cao until he was seriously injured and fled from the Hehuan Sect in a panic.

She had completely made an enemy of Zong Cao.

But Jiang Bai didn’t care.

Such a person still wanted to try to have her. Jiang Bai simply didn’t know how many people had given him the guts.

Jiang Bai really couldn’t figure it out. The Changsun family, which was more powerful than them, was not so high-profile. Instead, the Zong family seemed to be afraid that others didn’t know that there was a Zong family, and they swaggered around with the Zong family’s name.

When Qiong Yin came in, what she saw was Jiang Bai sitting there with a gloomy face. She sighed lightly. “A-Bai, go back and have a good rest. The sect doesn’t have that many affairs to deal with.”

At the very beginning, after sensing that the little cat had run away, Jiang Bai had already mobilized all the connections she could to find her. She had even drawn a portrait of the little cat and had it printed, and had posted it all over the streets and alleys.

Now, if anyone said that they didn’t know that the Young Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect, Jiang Bai, had lost a cat, they would be too embarrassed to say that they had kept up with the times.

But after so many years, the little cat had still not returned.

As more and more time passed, the hope of finding the little cat would become more and more slim. Gradually, even Qiong Yin had given up. Even if the little cat had not had an accident, since she had not returned for so long, she probably really didn’t want to come back.

Or there was even worse news… but no one wanted to imagine it.

Jiang Bai looked up at her and changed the subject. “The lightning tribulation just now, was it Elder Su Xin?”

“That’s right. Elder Su Xin has successfully broken through to the Soul Transformation stage,” Qiong Yin went forward to help tidy up the things on the table. While tidying, she said, “Now that Elder Su Xin is also out of seclusion, with her help, you don’t have to put so much pressure on yourself.”

Jiang Bai shook her head and did not speak again. She was not putting pressure on herself. She just wanted to use these things to divert her attention.

Now, as long as she was free, she would think of the matter of her losing the little cat.

If she had chased after her and found the little cat back then, this would not have happened.

“That’s right, that Xiao Ge…” Qiong Yin frowned, hesitating, not knowing if she should say it.

“What’s wrong with him again?” Now, as long as she heard the name Xiao Ge, Jiang Bai’s heart would be extremely annoyed.

Although she had beaten Xiao Ge until he had fled in a panic back then, when she had learned that the little cat was gone, she had only hated that she hadn’t beaten him to death at that time.

But after his injuries had healed, Xiao Ge was still not giving up. He had even thought of coming to her to discuss dual cultivation. This time, he had been beaten to a pulp by her. Just as her Lunhui Sword was about to pierce his chest, a stream of spiritual energy had instantly rushed out from Xiao Ge’s body, blocking her for a moment.

And Xiao Ge had also taken advantage of this gap to directly run away with a teleportation scroll. Otherwise, it would not have been impossible for him to die under the Lunhui Sword.

Jiang Bai admitted that she had taken her anger out on Xiao Ge, but if it weren’t for Xiao Ge, the little cat would not have run away.

“He said he has news of the little cat,” Qiong Yin said hesitantly.

Although she was very surprised when she first heard this news, after she reacted and heard it from Xiao Ge’s mouth, she felt that the credibility of this news was somewhat discounted.

She didn’t quite believe Xiao Ge anymore.

Jiang Bai suddenly stood up. “Did he say specifically what it is and where it is?”

Qiong Yin shook her head. “He wants to tell you in person.”

When she said this, Qiong Yin’s tone was a bit indescribable. She didn’t understand why Xiao Ge was so persistent with Jiang Bai, to the point where there were many rumors about the two of them outside. Even Changsun Qiyu, who was out training, had heard such rumors and had asked her what the situation was.

What could Qiong Yin say? She could only say that her junior brother was really thick-skinned, and his pestering appearance was very annoying.

In the past, she had only been indifferent to Xiao Ge, neither disliking nor liking him. But after the matter of the little cat, and his pestering of Jiang Bai, she now had an attitude of disgust towards Xiao Ge.

Gradually, she also understood more and more why the little cat would dislike him so much.

After hearing her words, Changsun Qiyu was also silent for a long time. In the end, she sighed lightly, her tone with a bit of a disappointed attitude.

The fact that Xiao Ge could break through to the Nascent Soul stage in such a short time showed that his talent was actually not bad. But he just had to take a shortcut. As someone who had been in the same sect as Xiao Ge for a while, Changsun Qiyu felt that she could probably guess why he was so persistent with Jiang Bai.

Jiang Bai was the undisputed number one of the younger generation. Her talent was high, and her appearance was also good. At the same time, she was also the Young Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect. Just these were enough for most people to pursue her. But Changsun Qiyu felt that there was another, most important reason.

She thought that Xiao Ge might have wanted to obtain Jiang Bai’s primordial yin through dual cultivation.

To be able to obtain the female party’s primordial yin in the first dual cultivation would be of great help to the male party. Perhaps Xiao Ge had his eyes on this point.

However, after her analysis, Qiong Yin’s disgust for Xiao Ge grew even more.

She had never seen such a shameless person!

“Where is he?” Jiang Bai was in no hurry to identify whether what Xiao Ge had said was true or false. Now, as long as there was any news of the little cat, she would not give up.

“Outside the sect. I didn’t let him in,” Qiong Yin pouted. With the previous lesson, Qiong Yin had directly instructed that if Xiao Ge came to visit again in the future, he would be directly blocked outside.

A gust of wind blew past, and Jiang Bai’s figure instantly disappeared from in front of Qiong Yin, leaving only a faint scent of peach blossoms to indicate that Jiang Bai had been there.

Qiong Yin: “…” She should have known long ago that A-Bai would not let go of any opportunity. But she was worried that Xiao Ge would use A-Bai’s psychology to deceive her!

After all, that Xiao Ge was not a gentleman.

She followed worriedly. When she arrived at the sect’s entrance, Xiao Ge was excitedly saying something to Jiang Bai. As she got closer, Xiao Ge suddenly shut up.

He might have also keenly discovered that under Qiong Yin’s seemingly gentle and kind mask, her attitude towards him had undergone a world of change.

Jiang Bai’s face was cold. “You said someone had seen the little cat in the Xiling graveyard?”

Xiao Ge glanced at Qiong Yin and nodded. “That person just said that he had seen a cat that looked very similar to the one in your portrait flash by, but he wasn’t very sure, so he hadn’t contacted you.”

Jiang Bai’s gaze was icy as she looked at Xiao Ge. “Then tell me, why would the little cat run to such a far place, and even go to the gloomy and terrifying graveyard?”

According to that little thing’s delicate temperament, how could she possibly go to those places?

If one were to talk about the forbidden lands that everyone in the Nine Provinces Continent knew, the Xiling graveyard was one of them.
