Uncle Gen didn’t expect Cheng Xiaoxiao to be capable of talking big at a time like this. He frowned sternly with a murderous look on his face as he enunciated each word slowly, “Then-prepare-to-die!”
The moment Uncle Gen finished his sentence, he pulled out a stack of talismans. Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at the yellow talismans that had indecipherable writing in red ink written on them.
No way!
Was he going to use talismans this time?
Cheng Xiaoxiao felt a little annoyed. Why did Uncle Gen have so many tricks up his sleeve? Was he trying to torture her to death?
Uncle Gen’s lips moved slightly as he muttered something.
Cheng Xiaoxiao knew Uncle Gen must be chanting. Even though she had never used talismans herself, she always saw them activated this way on television dramas.
For once, she was going to have the honor to witness this firsthand.
Cheng Xiaoxiao watched as the talismans s
This time, Xiaowu’s sword aimed straight for Uncle Gen. Uncle Gen wanted to pull out more talismans. Sadly, Xiaowu didn’t give him the chance. Xiaowu flicked his wrist gently and Cheng Xiaoxiao instinctively closed her eyes when the gleam from his sword got into her eyes. After she opened her eyes, Uncle Gen had already fallen to the ground with his eyes opened wide completely bereft of life. He was like a worn-out snakeskin bag that got discarded on the ground randomly. Xiaowu rolled his eyes and fell beside Uncle Gen as well. “Xiaowu!”Cheng Xiaoxiao watched as Xiaowu fell and couldn't be bothered with Uncle Gen’s condition.She ran over to examine Xiaowu immediately. Fortunately, Xiaowu had merely passed out. His condition was similar to the time when their life energy was absorbed by the formation.From the looks of it, Xiaowu had completely ex
Xiaowu felt bad and lowered his head to apologize the moment he heard what Chu Yunshen said. “Master, I am sorry about being careless. I will ensure I get punished when I get back. Are you alright?”“I’m fine. why don't you go get some rest first?” Chu Yunshen waved his hand and gestured for Xiaowu to go to the side. Cheng Xiaoxiao finally felt relieved when she saw Xiaowu alive and well. After all, she had just used Xiaowu’s body for some time and felt he might have to sleep several days before he recovered.From the looks of it now, Xiaowu was perfectly fine, so Cheng Xiaoxiao felt happy. After Xiaowu woke up, the rest of them regained consciousness one after another and they quickly went back to Prince Jing’s residence. Xiaowu was the only person who got seriously injured. He looked at his injuries perplexedly and had something to say to Chu Yunshen but felt hesitant.“Speak up.”
Chu Yunshen gradually clenched his fists slightly with the jade box in his hands. He did not expect himself to feel so flustered since he was famous for his self-restraint in town. If Cheng Xiaoxiao knew what Chu Yunshen was thinking now, she was bound to point at his face and scold him. How could that be considered taking advantage of Chu Yunshen? She was clearly looking for the signal flare!As for her actions, she was completely innocent.Cheng Xiaoxiao was a modern woman, so those actions were completely normal for her!How could Chu Yunshen call her shameless?How could Chu Yunshen even call her a demoness? If not for her, he would have died countless times. He would have died so long ago that the grass on his grave would be up to her waist by now. Would Cheng Xiaoxiao ever know what he was thinking?Absolutely not.She was curled up in bed sleeping right now.
Cheng Xiaoxiao forgot how she and Xiaowu were comrades who had fought together. The slight guilt in her heart also instantly dissipated without a trace. Come on! She swore to defend her jade pendant!The lion cat gurgled threateningly as her fur stood erect. “You can do it in a few days.”Chu Yunshen interrupted their imperceptible war. Xiaowu looked at the smug cat who had gotten her way and couldn’t help feeling annoyed. “It’s not like you can read, right? What’s the point of taking it?”Cheng Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at Xiaowu. She flipped through the book and started looking for the word “stupid”. Since there was no such word inside, she resorted to pointing at the words “Xiao” and “Wu” to prove her point. Xiaowu gaped in astonishment. After some time, he finally muttered, “This is incredible. Could this cat be a demon or something?”The moment Chu Yunshen heard wha
Wan Xia was wearing fine-soled embroidered shoes as she walked on the stones in the garden. Cheng Xiaoxiao could sense the pain just looking at her feet. However, Wan Xia just kept trying to make Cheng Xiaoxiao happy. “Don’t be mad, okay? I didn’t make the chicken soup, I only cooked for you.”Wan Xia placed the food container on a stone table in a pavilion by the lake and carried the lion cat as she sat down on the stone chair.The stone chair happened to be near a lake, so Wan Xia hugged the lion cat as she gazed at the lake with light reflecting off it and went into a daze. Cheng Xiaoxiao was having a dilemma. A cat and her human form were arguing relentlessly in her mind. Her cat form scolded her, “Cheng Xiaoxiao, how could you be so heartless? Wan Xia did so much for you, but you shockingly distrusted her for such a small matter.”Her human form was even more annoyed and promptly beat up the cat wh
Cheng Xiaoxiao eventually fell asleep. Perhaps she was unworried or genuinely exhausted, so she was able to nod off while she was thinking. By the time she woke up, it was already the next morning. Xiaowu spoke to Chu Yunshen in an irritating tone. “Master, I will send it over.”Before Chu Yunshen said a word, Cheng Xiaoxiao snapped out of her daze and felt annoyed.She swiftly darted in front of Xiaowu and climbed up Xiaowu’s pant leg and pummeled him. The moment Chu Yunshen saw the furry white silhouette on Xiaowu, he seemed a little annoyed.Xiaowu was badly scratched and incapable of retaliating, so he reached his hand out and grabbed her body.He and Cheng Xiaoxiao could never wrap their minds around it. Why was Chu Yunshen always able to figure out exactly where they were going and get there before they did?Naturally, it was no different this time.Chu Yunshen nimbly took
Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't want to worry Wan Xia over this inexplicable mood swing, so she suppressed her feelings and deliberately pushed Wan Xia’s hand away.Cheng Xiaoxiao and Wan Xia often interacted this way, so Wan Xia knew the lion cat was playing with her.Wan Xia reached her hand out to rub the lion cat’s furry little head as the lion cat continued dodging her.This kept going on until Wan Xia pretended to be angry and turned her head away and refused to react.Cheng Xiaoxiao thought Wan Xia was upset after getting rejected too many times, so she got off the jade box and walked over to Wan Xia.Wan Xia kept watching the lion cat’s every movement. The moment the lion cat finally came over, Wan Xia turned her head sideways to show her profile.Oh no. She had gone overboard.Cheng Xiaoxiao felt anxious when Wan Xia genuinely ignored her despite her good nature.It was far more se
Cheng Xiaoxiao had licked Wan Xia’s hand, so she could taste its fragrance in her mouth and her body was covered in it.She felt so peaceful that it seemed as though Wan Xia was embracing her and lulling her to sleep. Cheng Xiaoxiao rubbed Wan Xia’s arm with the baby bird on her head as she acted cute to Wan Xia.This time, Wan Xia didn't pull the lion cat into her arms. Instead, she pulled her arm away from the lion cat apologetically.“I am so sorry, but you heard her! I have to go back to my quarters to handle things, so I probably can't spend time with you for a few days.”Wan Xia randomly twirled a tuft of the lion cat’s fur as she apologized. If Wan Xia could stay, Cheng Xiaoxiao was willing to let Wan Xia carry her all day and play with her!However, she could not do it.Cheng Xiaoxiao reckoned something had happened to make Xiao Yue so flustered. Also, Xiao Yue mentioned
