Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 202: Half Immortal Grandma Chu1

Chapter 202: Chapter 202: Half Immortal Grandma Chu_1

Although she vaguely sensed that Qin Sisi’s spiritual power was not very strong, she possessed such a powerful cat, indicating that her owner must be extraordinary.

With this conclusion, Grandma Chu’s tone softened slightly, as she spoke to Qin Sisi: "I’ve been living here for several decades. Although there have been occasional crises, overall, things have been peaceful and smooth. As far as I’m concerned, the fewer the complications the better. With the unique skills that you possess and your level of preparedness, it’s better for

to hide. I figured you would leave if you couldn’t find . I never expected..."

Grandma Chu sighed, mockingly saying, "Indeed, the old give way to the new."

Fair and square, Qin Sisi knew that if not for Ye You’s help, she would definitely not have been a match for Grandma Chu.

However, it was not a bad thing at the mont to be misunderstood by Grandma Chu as being very powerful, so Qin Sisi did not correct her, instead modestly replying, "Grandma flatters , you are the one who is extraordinary, having the ability to draw symbols and communicate with spirits."

Grandma Chu gave a faint smile, the wrinkles on her face casting strange shadows under the illumination of the Ziwei Heaven Fire. She slowly said, "Extraordinary? I’m just an old ghost who has been dead for several decades."

Despite her words, there was a smug and contemptuous look in Grandma Chu’s expression.

After thinking for a mont, Qin Sisi asked, "Last night I saw a flash of light on the top floor from downstairs, does that have anything to do with you, Grandma?"

Grandma Chu nodded and replied, "Yes, last night Ning Yue ca to tell

that her brother was outside and she wanted to go and take a closer look. I felt uneasy, so I went to the roof to take a closer look. When I saw Ning Yue recognising her brother, I knew I had overthought things and returned to my room. Who would have known that the light reflected off my cane would be noticed by you, it seems it was my fate."

If what Grandma Chu said was true, then she must be quite a kind person.

Qin Sisi remarked in admiration, "Your kind-heartedness is truly worthy of admiration."

Grandma Chu waved her hand and said, "You don’t have to flatter . You must have a reason for visiting. Please tell

straightforwardly."

Qin Sisi exchanged a glance with Ye You, and after carefully choosing her words, said to Grandma Chu, "Grandma, I want to collect soul power."

Upon hearing this, Grandma Chu’s face changed slightly, and she said in a sowhat heavy tone, "Young lady, this is a serious matter. Firstly, collecting soul power requires a rare and precious spiritual artifact for storage. Secondly, an over-accumulation of soul power can create a terrifying magnetic field and, in severe cases, could lead to the shifting of celestial bodies and the distortion of ti and space. This kind of power is not sothing you can control. Please rethink."

Qin Sisi inwardly nodded, it seed that Grandma Chu truly had so profound knowledge and abilities.

Qin Sisi spoke loudly, "Don’t worry Grandma, I have a skilled ntor guiding

and I will never use it to harm anyone. I ask that you kindly instruct ."

Seeing Qin Sisi’s determined attitude, Grandma Chu no longer tried to dissuade her. She squinted her murky eyes, deep in thought for a while, then slowly asked, "Helping Ning Yue’s brother find Ning Yue, is it because you want to control Ning Yue’s soul power?"

After a pause, Qin Sisi said, "That’s part of it, but most importantly, Ning Yue’s brother is my friend."

Grandma Chu quietly nodded. From Qin Sisi’s deanor, it seed she likely spoke the truth.

Grandma Chu rocked her cane, asking, "What exactly do you want my advice on?"

Qin Sisi found herself suddenly unable to speak, hesitating for a long while before finally asking hesitantly, "would Grandma be willing to give up her soul power?"

Qin Sisi asked this question with uncertainty, believing in her heart that Grandma Chu would likely refuse.

As expected, Grandma Chu chuckled coldly, saying, "So you were thinking of targeting this old woman."

Qin Sisi looked embarrassed but was not ready to give up so quickly. Swallowing her pride, she said, "I can help Grandma fulfill any unfulfilled wishes."

Grandma Chu calmly asked, "Do you know who I was before I died?"

Just as Qin Sisi was about to reply that she didn’t know, Ye You softly "owed" a few sentences in her ear.

Qin Sisi’s eyes flashed as she began speaking, "Grandma was kind, possessed powerful mana, and must have been a benevolent expert while she was alive. Furthermore, Grandma’s ability to communicate with spirits probably wasn’t realized after you beca a ghost, right?"

Naturally, people love flattery. Grandma Chu’s face showed a hint of a smile. She half-closed her eyes and gently stroked her shiny and smooth cane with her dry fingers, nostalgically saying, "In my ti, I was quite the impressive figure around here, known as Chu, the Demi Immortal."

Indeed, as Ye You guessed, Grandma Chu had so amount of mana even while she was still alive.

Grandma Chu continued, "I have been living around here for many years. I died a natural death at the age of ninety-nine. My husband and children all succumbed to illness in my middle age, so you can say I’ve been alone."

Grandma Chu’s past was certainly a tragic one. Qin Sisi had once heard that demi immortals who attempted to discern the ’Will of Heaven’ and revealed it to the mortal world would receive divine retribution. The punishnt might inflict them personally or affect their loved ones.

With a listless look in her eyes, Grandma Chu said, "Being a demi immortal, I have seen a lot of the world’s suffering. Therefore, I chose not to reincarnate and stayed in my ho as a ghost after I passed away. After so years, my old house was demolished, and this high-rise building was erected. I moved to the rooftop. They demolished my house, they should at least give

a place to stay."

What she said seed reasonable, and Qin Sisi nodded in agreent, saying "Grandma has a point."

Grandma Chu barely lifted her eyelid and glanced at Qin Sisi, continuing, "I have lived here for many years and have no intention of entering the cycle of reincarnation again. I occasionally help others and never intend harm. I have co to terms with everything and have no unsolved wishes. Miss, I’m afraid you have knocked on the wrong door. Please, you should leave."

Qin Sisi didn’t know how to respond. A ghost would only be willing to exchange soul power for sothing if they had lingering attachnts to the world. Since Grandma Chu had no attachnts, there was indeed no need for her to make a deal with Qin Sisi. It seed that this attempt was set up for failure.

Just when Qin Sisi was feeling dejected, a clear and pleasing voice ca from outside the door saying, "Grandma Chu, I’m back."

A petite figure then floated through the wooden door and into the room.

Qin Sisi was taken aback, the new arrival was Ning Yue.

Ning Yue was also stunned to see Qin Sisi, "Qin Sisi, what are you doing here?"

Qin Sisi glanced at Grandma Chu and said, "I ca to discuss sothing with Grandma Chu."

Ning Yue blinked and floated to Grandma Chu, asking, "Grandma, is she trying to take your soul power?"

Seeing Ning Yue, a loving expression ca over Grandma Chu’s face, and she slowly nodded.
