Seeing Christina crying like a fool as she controlled her own body, Zhou Bai kept comforting her, asking, "What in the world is going on? Speak up, there's no need to cry."
"Wahh!!" Christina burst into even harder sobs, sniffling nonstop as snot stread out and her cheeks puffed up red, as if she couldn't even speak anymore.
Zhou Bai, seeing this, was helpless. Suddenly, he slapped himself on the face and, looking at his dazed body, said fiercely, "Stop crying, or I'll castrate you."
Christina was instantly intimidated by Zhou Bai's aura and ferocity, looking as though she wanted to cry but was holding it back with all her might.
Only then did Zhou Bai say, "What's the actual problem? Tell in detail."
"I... I…" Christina: "I'm not human... wuwuwu... what should I do, Zhou Bai... I'm not human... I'm really a cat!!!"
Zhou Bai rolled his eyes, "Isn't that obvious? You were originally a cat."
"No, no!" said Christina: "I originally thought I was a beautiful woman turned into a cat by the bad guys, but now I find out I'm actually a cat, not a human."
Zhou Bai then took her seriously, "What do you an?"
Christina: "So of my mory has co back. It was Yan Hui and the others who found the 'Primordial Dao Text 04,' and after practicing it a bit, so mories returned…"
Zhou Bai's eyes instantly widened, "'Primordial Dao Text 04' was found?" He imdiately lifted the Laziness Disaster and returned to his own body, then, turning around, he walked away: "I'm going to cultivate 'Primordial Dao Text 04'!"
Christina, who was kicked back into the sea of consciousness, puffed up her cheeks, looking grumpily at the scene: "Zhou Bai! I wasn't finished talking!"
Zhou Bai: "Keep talking while we walk, I'm going to check out 'Primordial Dao Text 04' first. By the way, where is 'Primordial Dao Text 04' kept?"
So Zhou Bai walked toward the location of the Dao texts, while listening to Christina talk about her situation.
Christina: "It's like a bunch of stuff suddenly filled my head, most of it's blurry and I can't make it out, can't hear it clearly, can't see it clearly, but one thing I saw clearly is that I'm not human, I'm a cat that transford into a human. I practiced for many, many years to beco human."
Zhou Bai, hearing this, brightened up, "A cat demon, huh? That's a good thing. You've got the best of both cats and humans, how nice."
"..." Christina: "That seems to make sense."
Zhou Bai: "Right? Since you're a cat demon, can you transform into a human?"
Christina shook her head: "Don't know how to transform. Maybe if my cultivation advances further, I'll awaken new mories and be able to transform then."
Zhou Bai expressed disappointnt: "I wanted to see what you would look like as a human. Any other mories?"
Christina's eyes shifted as she said, "I seem to rember being quite familiar with the High Heaven Emperor, and I must have talked with him a lot."
"Oh?" Zhou Bai's eyes lit up, "What did you two talk about?"
"He seed to be asking to do sothing," Christina recalled, "But I just can't rember what it was."
Zhou Bai: "Sigh, so your mories aren't too useful, are they? Better to just practice 'Primordial Dao Text 04' quickly and try to recover other mories sooner."
As Zhou Bai walked along, he found that the people around were staring at him with strange expressions, making him feel a bit embarrassed.
'What's going on?' Zhou Bai asked in the sea of consciousness: 'Why do they keep staring at ?'
Christina explained, "Of course, it's because you're famous. You repelled the Heavenly Demon with a single sword and protected West Mountain City. Who doesn't know the great na of Zhou Bai?"
Zhou Bai said, "That makes sense."
Following that, Zhou Bai calmly accepted the gazes of everyone around. Eventually, he had arrived at the room preserving the original Daoist texts 04.
Currently, Ying Hui was personally standing guard here. After all, the original Daoist texts 04 were of great importance and were key to Zhou Bai's cultivation. He had planned to help Zhou Bai guard here every day for the next few days to avoid any mishaps.
Seeing Zhou Bai co in, Ying Hui asked with concern, "How are you doing, Zhou Bai? That state you were in last ti really scared . Are you alright?"
Zhou Bai, puzzled, said to Christina, "What happened?"
Christina replied, "It was just a bit of a shock when you were recovering your mory, no big deal."
Zhou Bai turned to Ying Hui and said, "I'm fine now. Let's take a look at this original Daoist text 04."
Zhou Bai walked up to the original Daoist text 04. With Ying Hui's expectant gaze upon him, his Primordial Spirit energy surged forth, enveloping the statue as he began to contemplate.
Before long, a line of data appeared on the cultivation assistance system's panel.
"Do you wish to spend 1.5 million laziness points to learn original Daoist text 04?"
Zhou Bai looked at this line of data, slightly startled: "That much?" He rembered that learning the original Daoist text 03 had cost him only 300,000 laziness points.
"Seems like the cost of laziness points really soars."
Zhou Bai glanced at his cultivation assistance system's panel; he had 730,000 laziness points, which ant he was short by 770,000.
"How much stuff would I need to sell for 770,000... Selling poop, I probably couldn't make 770,000 even if I sold it for two weeks. As for other more valuable cultivation materials and extraordinary foods..."
Thinking about the current impoverished state of humanity, Zhou Bai felt a bit uncomfortable.
So many civilians and lower-class cultivators scrimped and saved, lived frugally, and worked hard only to provide various resources for the upper-class cultivators.
"Selling precious cultivation materials until reaching 770,000 laziness points would be too wasteful. It would also an reducing our own people's share. Better to sell more Heavenly Demon materials in the future."
Although Zhou Bai knew that if he simply asked, Ying Hui and the others would surely procure a large amount of cultivation materials for him, he still didn't want to do so and planned to find another way.
"Let's use the face-boosting bonus. Even if it's slower, it shouldn't be by much."
Thus, Zhou Bai turned to Ying Hui and said, "Old Ying, could you... um... find soone to accompany in cultivation?"
Ying Hui asked in surprise, "Who? Original Daoist text 04 is confidential. How can we just find soone to accompany your cultivation?"
"Um..." Zhou Bai said slightly embarrassed, "It's just that I feel the efficiency is low when I cultivate alone. If you find a few beautiful people to accompany , I think I could be faster."
Ying Hui was speechless.
He looked at Zhou Bai with a strange expression, thinking to himself, 'This kid Zhou Bai... has really grown up...'
Sensing Ying Hui's peculiar gaze, Zhou Bai decided to go all out, thinking, 'Isn't this all for everyone to have more cultivation materials? As long as everyone can get a bit more at, a few more elixirs, and a lower risk of aberration when studying the Daoist texts, what does it matter if I'm misunderstood or slandered?'
With that in mind, Zhou Bai felt his backbone straighten even more, his resolve strengthening as he looked at Ying Hui and said, "I want the most beautiful people in West Mountain City to accompany in cultivation, not one, not two, but ten of them."
