Chapter 71 - This Cat...
Very strange.
This feeling was too strange.
Su Huanhuan felt this was definitely not quite right.
It had already been several days since leaving Deer Steps Village; they would reach Yedu in a few more days.
But now, Su Huanhuan had a rather urgent matter to deal with.
She looked at Luo He, who was following beside her holding an umbrella and staring at the white cat sleeping in his bosom, her expression grim.
These past few days, apart from the necessary tis, Luo He actually hadn't possessed her body even once.
Yes, not even once.
Such a serious situation, this was the first ti it had occurred since she t him outside Xianfeng City.
Now, her "stomach" often felt empty; frankly, she was very unused to it.
And replacing that, he was constantly pondering that cat of his.
Without a doubt, Luo He and Su Huanhuan were already allies who acknowledged each other, helped each other, and had a close relationship.
Luo He had an obligation to provide his ally Su Huanhuan with full and necessary cultivation help.
But these past few days, he had been passive and negligent about this because of an outsider's arrival.
As the party whose interests were hard, Su Huanhuan now believed she had the need to give a solemn warning and explanation for this.
“Stupid fox.”
“Mm... huh?”
“Co here.”
Luo He turned his head and glanced at Su Huanhuan.
“What for?”
“?”
No, what kind of attitude is this?
Don't you know I'm very unhappy right now?
Su Huanhuan's expression froze, followed by a face full of disbelief.
She had thought that after that day's baring of... no, heart-to-heart talk, this stupid fox would more or less understand his significance to her now.
But how co it felt like it was even worse than before?!
“?”
Luo He cast a puzzled gaze.
Why is Su Huanhuan staring at him?
“Luo He... let ask you sothing.”
“Go ahead.”
“Do you know how long it's been since the last ti you entered my body?”
“About... four shichen (8 hrs), I guess.”
“You even know, a whole four shichen!”
Su Huanhuan angrily held up four fingers.
“Clearly, you used to just stay in my body whenever you had nothing to do, and now after a gap of a good while, you haven't shown any sign at all!”
“Then who is going to make up for this cultivation I'm missing!”
“Uh...”
Luo He scratching his head.
“You haven't felt it yourself?”
“Felt what!”
“You've already reached the peak of the Golden Core... If you don't break through, it's useless for to keep helping you accumulate cultivation.”
“......”
Huh?
Su Huanhuan was stunned for a mont, then looked inward at her own dantian.
She saw that within a sea of spiritual energy wreathed in blood qi, a round and full Golden Core, compared to its brilliant bloody splendor when it first condensed, had already shrunk and retracted a lot.
With every breath her body took, this shrunken Golden Core pulsed weakly along with her heartbeat.
When the right ti ca, this Golden Core would break open.
This was the sign of being about to break through from the Golden Core stage to Nascent Soul.
Oh, she really had reached the peak of Golden Core...
Wait, no, no!
Su Huanhuan, amidst her shock, had no sense of reality about this.
Ever since she was fourteen, when she half-buried that evil cultivator who wanted to refine her into dicine in the dicinal garden, seized his wealth and land, and started on the path of cultivation, every single advancent in cultivation was fresh in her mory.
Not for any other reason, just because the process was too laborious.
For her, if she had imagined she could rely solely on self-cultivation to advance steadily like those heaven's favored ones, she might not even have reached Foundation Establishnt by now.
So her breakthroughs mostly relied on external items, or planting and cultivating spirit herbs herself, or trading with others, or even seizing by force... none of it was a simple matter.
Because of this, she had always had a very clear grasp of her own cultivation progress.
Since entering the Golden Core stage, she had already felt her cultivation advancent speed beco incredibly slow; relying on external items for cultivation was not the royal road, after all.
Six years ago, at the Immortal Ascension Assembly, she was in the early Golden Core stage; she had already been stuck there for a long ti.
And six years later, relying on cultivating with the Demonic Seed Luo He gave her, by the ti she t him again, she had only just barely reached the late Golden Core stage.
And because of three years of fleeing, her cultivation had even shown signs of wavering and falling.
But now...
She was about to break through to Nascent Soul?
This, was this right...
She, Su Huanhuan, had cultivated for over ten years; when had she ever used such a cheat...
If Luo He hadn't ntioned it now, she probably wouldn't have noticed at all, or rather, wouldn't have imagined it.
“......”
Su Huanhuan suddenly thought, if even her own diocre aptitude could be like this, what if Luo He went to the side of soone with even more formidable talent...
“...No.”
For so reason, Su Huanhuan just wanted to imdiately suppress this line of thought that annoyed her.
This idea itself was fundantally flawed.
A cultivator's spiritual platform and sea of consciousness are creations of heaven and earth; how could it be that just anyone could enter as they pleased?
For her and him to be so compatible without any rejection was already extrely rare. How could there be so many other coincidences in the world?
Mm, it must be like this.
Besides, other than who is familiar with him, who else would be willing to open their heart and body to let such a ghost creature of unknown origins enter...
Unnecessary worries.
Whenever Su Huanhuan felt suspicious, she would be like this, lowering her head and muttering who knows what.
But Luo He looked at her and didn't think much of it, just stroked Mimi, who was still fast asleep, again.
This little cat's situation really made him a bit unable to figure it out.
Logically speaking, back when he took out the Willow Flute intending to guide the resentful souls to disperse their obsessions, Mimi should have dispersed along with them.
After all, it was the main body of that Tiger's Thrall Ghost. As one that had been imprisoned, tortured, and forced to eat people for its blood since infancy, how could it not have resentnt?
The strange thing was, its spiritual soul didn't leave... At the ti, Luo He didn't investigate deeply, just assud it was its fate, and simply adopted it.
But recently, seeing it always sleeping, even when it occasionally woke up, it didn't react to him or anything else, just spaced out for a bit, then continued to sleep.
Luo He had been pondering this matter these past few days.
But unfortunately, regarding the mysterious existence of ghost spirits, his understanding was also extrely limited.
For now, he mostly had no clue about it.
Luo He shook his head and stuffed Mimi back into his bosom.
It was worth ntioning that its soul body was actually sowhat warm.
"Even if there's no need to increase cultivation, you staying in my body, nourishing your soul body with my cultivator's divine sense, is all benefits for you. Is there anything to be taboo about?"
Su Huanhuan's voice brought Luo He back to his senses. He looked at her, then weighed the cat in his arms.
"Do you just purely like the feeling of staying inside your body?"
"That's right."
Su Huanhuan replied loudly, frowning.
She never skimped on expressing what she liked.
"Hmm... I personally don't have any objection..."
"Mainly, the cat can't be brought in."
Luo He said innocently.
Yes, Luo He and the cat were two different entities.
Mimi could stay by Luo He's side; Luo He could stay inside Su Huanhuan's body.
But this didn't an Mimi could also stay inside Su Huanhuan's body.
What's more, Mimi's situation wasn't like his, able to hide himself... unless it was hidden in Luo He's bosom, otherwise, ordinary people could seemingly see it too.
Su Huanhuan's red pupils stared at Mimi in Luo He's bosom. Coincidentally, Mimi also woke up at this mont, and the two pairs of red eyes t.
Finally, Su Huanhuan grit her teeth and made a decision that surrendered her sovereignty and brought humiliation.
"You co in. I'll hold the cat for you."
"Alright.”
