Chapter 91: 91

Li Qingshan curled his lips . He had almost been fooled by her . What seeking freedom? She was clearly just indolent, seeking an even more extravagant life . When he wanted to ask about the Nine-tailed Fox Empress and the Ten Daemon Kings, she had already changed the topic, returning to how cute she was; this was the reason why the Nine-tailed Fox Empress had chosen her, inviting her to the Dragon province . Xuanyue forbade Li Qingshan from interrupting her .

She continued until she became sick of it . Its quite late now . Time to sleep! She pulled out a huge cats basket that was filled with a thick layer of crane down . She curled up inside it comfortably .

Li Qingshan said, Its still daytime!

Xuanyue waved her hand and extinguished the pearl . Daytime is for sleeping . Well set off at night .

Li Qingshan looked at her sleeping figure . Her long lashes layered upon one another, and her delicate nose was slightly raised from her face . Her lips were closed . Curled up, she seemed even smaller and more petite, lacking her usual rudeness and capriciousness . She seemed so delicate, rousing an urge to protect her .

He shook his head violently . Now was not the time to appreciate beauty . She was not someone who needed his protection, nor was she someone he could pursue . From a certain perspective, she could even be regarded as an enemy . How could he be captivated by her? He needed to raise his guard!

Li Qingshan let out a sigh of relief and made eye contact with Xiao An . He felt that everything he went through today was far too weird . He glanced at the girl in the cats basket before making his way over to a corner of the cave to meditate, continuing his cultivation of the Spirit Turtles Method of Sea Suppression . Xiao An also sat down beside him to meditate .

Xuanyue tossed and turned in the basket and said suddenly, Big Blacko, sing me a song .

I dont know how to! Li Qingshan replied firmly .

Then whats the point of keeping you around!? Xuanyue opened her eyes .

Then let me go!

Forget it, Ill teach you .

Li Qingshan facepalmed, but before he could reply, Xuanyue began singing all by herself . Little kitty, good kitty, go to sleep

The gentle singing filled the cave . Although it was extremely pleasant, Li Qingshan curled his lips . This was clearly a lullaby to coax children, so he thought the Dark Queen was probably some cat lover who treated a cat as her child . However, when she sang it, it was extremely beautiful, with a gentle, soothing feeling .

When Xiao An heard it, the blood-red flames in his eye sockets pulsed as his heart surged . Yet, there just seemed to be something blocking him, preventing him from understanding where this feeling came from .

Im done singing! Its your turn!

Its so simple, yet you cant remeowmber it?Li Qingshan said, Im a country bumpkin of a daemon . Im dumb and stupid, so of course I wont understand . I cant remember anything .

Xuanyue sang it again with no other choice, but it was just the same as before . Li Qingshan still could not remember it . Xuanyue wanted to throw a tantrum, but after a moment of inspiration, she held a spiritual pill with her two fingers and smiled . If you sing, therell be spiritual pills to eat!

Little kitty, good kitty, go to sleep! Li Qingshan immediately sang at the top of his lungs . Why wouldnt he sing if there were benefits? He was just selling his artistic talent, not his body . Just like what the great leader had said before, the workers were the most glorious . However, his voice was deep, heavy, and hoarse, like resonating metal . Coupled with how he was singing at the top of his lungs, the lullaby ended up sounding like rock-and-roll .

Stop singing! Youre so noisy! Xuanyue tossed the spiritual pill into Li Qingshans mouth .

Li Qingshan sniggered . He swallowed the pill and continued to meditate and practise . He did not know the name of the pill, but every single one of them felt like they were able to remould his body completely . The effects were unbelievable . To ordinary people or even cultivators, these pills were probably extremely rare treasures . Now that he could get them from just yelling at the top of his lungs, it was basically a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity .

Xuanyue lost all interest in sleeping from the ruckus he made . She asked curiously, Just what is up with your appearance? Let me guess . Your meowther was a tiger and your father was an ox?

Li Qingshan did not answer . It just sounded like cursing him no matter how he tried to interpret it, but thinking about it, she was an animal as well, so he endured it .

Then your father is the tiger and your meowther is the ox?Li Qingshan reluctantly answered with a yep .

Xuanyue said, Its just like what I said . Its no wonder you can transform when youre so weak . So your parents are both daemons as well . They should be rather powerful daemons too . Oh right, where did they go?

Li Qingshan answered calmly, Theyre dead . However, he was thinking of the parents of his current life .

Xuanyue fell silent for a while . Im sorry . After another moment of silence, she said, Me too .

Li Qingshan looked over in surprise . Xuanyue said, Sleep! With that, she turned her back to him and no longer spoke .

Li Qingshan sighed gently and suddenly began singing softly, Little kitty, good kitty, go to sleep

Xuanyues cat ears perked up, and Xiao An listened quietly as well . For that moment, there were no other sounds in the cave .

Over fifty kilometers away, an old man with a sword on his back descended from the sky, landing on the Dragons Gate mountain . He looked at the ruins and frowned . His peppered hair was tied up into a bun, and he possessed a neatly-trimmed beard . He had a pair of shining eyes, but their brilliance was hidden away, concealing his vitality .

His appearance was actually rather similar to the Soaring Dragon Swordsman consecrated in the Dragons Gate sect, but he had stopped being the penniless swordsman of the jianghu a long time ago . Instead, he was the Soaring Dragon Elder of the Sword Collection palace .

He closed his eyes to sense the surroundings, and his frown grew deeper . The Peachwood Prayer Sword he left behind had actually failed to kill the enemy?

The Peachwood Prayer Sword was a secret technique of the Sword Collection sect . It required a peachwood sword to be offered incense and candles constantly, without missing a single day . Over days and years, it would gather a tremendous amount of power of thoughts and belief . It would be unstoppable once used .

The Soaring Dragon Elder decided to put this matter aside for now . The Dragons Gate sect was only a legacy he had left behind out of pure coincidence when he roamed the world of mortals back then . In the blink of an eye, a century had passed already, and he did not care too much about it either . He could just deal with the important matters first and then find that person and end his life with a stroke of his sword .

Just when he was about to set off, his eyes suddenly narrowed . He gazed over swiftly and saw a white figure descend from the sky .

Gu Yanying smiled . Soaring Dragon Elder, long time no see . However, she was not smiling inside at all . The Sword Collection palace had actually sent out a Golden Core elder . The matter truly was a little troublesome . The two queens of the Green province, the Dark Queen and the Light Queen, had become complete enemies now, and the Light Queen originated from the Sword Collection palace . Whenever they would get the opportunity, they would never let the other have it easy .

The Soaring Dragon Elder said, So its commander Gu . Why have you come to such a remote place? He was also wary . Out of the various White Hawk commanders of the Green province, she was the most difficult to deal with, and she had a close friendship with that ghost woman, the Dark Queen . However, her backing just happened to be powerful as well, so he could not afford to simply fall out with her .

Gu Yanying said, Ive come to handle a small matter under the Dark Queens request, but I never thought Id come across the Soaring Dragon Elder . Id like to invite you to a drink . She made up her mind with a single thought . As long as she could keep this old man busy, she would just let that cat escape to the Dragon province . Over all these years, the cat had already made more than enough trouble for her . She really did not want to see her again .
