Chapter 74

Chapter 74 When the evil cultivators of the Yin Hun Sect saw the situation, those who were wise had already fled. Song Weizhi and her companions had achieved their goal and did not resort to annihilating everyone. They successfully left the demon world with their spiritual weapons. Song Weizhi found an inn in Yunxiao City and settled in. She planned to let Song Zhixia refine the shattered soul fragment before making further plans, while Wei Zhao wandered around the city. Zhou Qingxue had not found a suitable body for her three souls and seven spirits yet, due to the existence of the Heavenly Dao. Even if she sought a body, she could only choose those of naturally deceased people or animals, making it difficult to find a suitable match for the time being. Song Weizhi asked the young girl to sit on the bed and released the fragment of the soul from her storage bag, intending to merge it with the girl's soul. However, the girl used her spiritual power to push the soul fragment back to Song Weizhi. Somewhat puzzled, Song Weizhi looked at the girl and asked, "What's wrong, Xiaxia?" "Didn't you last put it into your own soul, Senior Sister?" Song Zhixia's face gradually blushed. Song Weizhi was taken aback for a moment before she realized what the girl meant. She sat next to the girl, feeling amused, and leaned in to kiss her on the lips, then said, "I was so focused on finding the soul fragment that I neglected you, Xiaxia. Alright, I'll put the soul fragment into my own soul first and then give it to you." The girl stole a glance at Song Weizhi and buried her face in Song Weizhi's shoulder, feeling shy. She wondered if her Senior Sister would make fun of her for being clingy. Song Weizhi's lips had not stopped curling since earlier. She placed the soul fragment into her own soul and set up a barrier in the room. After that, she gently kissed the girl's lips, continuously deepening the kiss. It wasn't until they were both out of breath that Song Weizhi let go of the girl. She leaned over to kiss the girl's earlobe and asked, "Don't you feel the day is too bright this time?" Saying this, she planted a series of gentle kisses on the girl. The girl was short of breath from the affectionate kisses. She pretended to be petulant and said, "Wasn't it you who said you could see clearly last time?" Song Weizhi smiled and teased, "Yes, it was me. My Xiaxia is always so obedient." Saying that, Song Weizhi gently laid the girl down on the bed. The girl had already softened from the previous kiss, her rosy lips slightly parted while her gaze was filled with mist. After a while, everything melted into Song Weizhi's tenderness. Wei Zhao wandered around Jimo City but could not find a suitable body for Zhou Qingxue. Finally, he found a dying body, that of a cat. Wei Zhao sat and waited for the black-brown cat to pass away peacefully. He took a jade pendant from his storage bag and said to Zhou Qingxue, "Qingxue, I couldn't find a suitable body for you after looking around. How about making do with this cat's body for now?" Zhou Qingxue's voice came from the jade pendant, "Alright, it can run and move at the very least. It's better than staying in the pendant." Shortly after, the cat closed its eyes. Wei Zhao carefully checked its breath with his spiritual power to confirm its passing. Then, he transferred Zhou Qingxue's three souls and seven spirits into the cat's body. After a while, the previously deceased cat suddenly sat up, blinked its cat eyes, and stared straight at Wei Zhao. Wei Zhao reached out and gently touched the cat's head, asking uncertainly, "Qingxue, is that you?" As he spoke, Wei Zhao found that the cat's touch was quite good, and he couldn't help but stroke it a few more times. In response, Zhou Qingxue delivered a punch with her cat paw. "What are you touching? Do you really take me for a cat?" Zhou Qingxue's voice came from the cat, and Wei Zhao could barely contain his laughter. "I was just testing if your spirit had entered the cat's body," Wei Zhao laughed and lifted Zhou Qingxue, cradling her in his arms. If Zhou Qingxue had been in her human form, her face would probably have blushed ages ago. Wei Zhao was quite oblivious; he simply picked her up and placed her on his chest without asking. After they returned to the inn, Wei Zhao removed his outer clothing and lay down on the bed's edge. Zhou Qingxue, a big cat, looked at Wei Zhao and said, "I won't sleep with you! I want to go down." She then jumped onto Wei Zhao's body and stepped around a bit. But she was still in the form of a cat, and her actions seemed more like a massage than stepping on him. Seeing that Zhou Qingxue was back to her former self, no longer dwelling on the matter of Zhou Yeran, Wei Zhao felt relieved. The smile on his lips never faded. He hurriedly picked up Zhou Qingxue as she tried to get off the bed, holding her in his arms, and coaxing her, "Don't wander. You can't protect yourself in this form. Stay with me, good girl." Zhou Qingxue turned her cat face away and said, "Then I want to sleep on you. The bed is too hard." Her cat-like behavior amused Wei Zhao. He agreed and lifted her onto the bed, "Alright, I'll pamper you." When they woke up the next morning, Zhou Qingxue stretched her furry limbs, full of energy, and rolled around on Wei Zhao's chest, feeling safe and secure. Wei Zhao quickly protected her with his hand to prevent her from falling off the bed. Zhou Qingxue saw Wei Zhao smiling and immediately puffed up. She pressed her paws against Wei Zhao's neck while complaining, "Why are you laughing? You woke me up so early." Then she buried herself in Wei Zhao's arms and fell asleep again. Although Wei Zhao had awakened, he selflessly acted as Zhou Qingxue's living cushion. When Zhou Qingxue opened her cat eyes, it was already bright outside. She extended her fluffy limbs, rolled around on Wei Zhao's chest, and said with a petulant tone, "I want to go down." Wei Zhao picked her up and soothed her, "This time the masters are going to the palace to settle the score with the Third Prince. If you don't want to go, shall I take you to your mother's place for a few days? I'll come back for you after we finish our business." Zhou Qingxue hugged Wei Zhao's arm tightly with her cat paws and said, "It seems like you don't want me. I don't want to bother them. If you don't want me, then just leave me here." Wei Zhao raised the cat to his eye level and explained, "That's not what I meant. How could I not want you? I'm just worried that going back to Jimo City will upset you. Alright, from now on, we go wherever we need, together. It's decided." Zhou Qingxue languidly lay in his arms and said, "But I'm in this state now. It's a burden on you. Your cultivation level is so much higher than mine, and you're more desirable. If I'm not around, you won't have less admirers..." "Stop thinking nonsense. When you find a suitable body, we'll form a Daoist couple. That way, you won't have to worry so much," Wei Zhao comforted her, then added, "After all, you were the one who provoked me first, and you gave me the keepsake first. Zhou Qingxue, you can't just run away. You have to take responsibility for me." After a moment of silence, Zhou Qingxue shyly buried her cat head in Wei Zhao's embrace. Seeing this, Wei Zhao couldn't help but smile and hugged Zhou Qingxue while they went to find Song Weizhi and the others. Chapter 74 The young girl was particularly affectionate last night, and in the morning, she seemed reluctant to leave Song Weizhi’s side, wanting to linger in bed. Song Weizhi was naturally delighted and ended up cuddling with the girl all morning before getting up. After Song Weizhi and Song Zhixia were both dressed, a mechanical voice from the system sounded in Song Weizhi's mind, "Due to the disharmonious activities of the host last night, the system was temporarily blocked. Congratulations on finding another fragment of the female lead's soul. You are rewarded with 1,000 points. Your current total points are 1,000." Song Weizhi's lips curved slightly. The system was surprisingly empathetic. At that moment, Wei Zhao knocked on Song Weizhi's door while carrying Zhou Qingxue. Song Weizhi got up to answer, "Master, when are we setting off?" "We're leaving soon. Oh, where did this little cat come from in your arms?" Song Weizhi reached out to touch, but Wei Zhao dodged. "Master, this is Qingxue. It's better if you don't touch her," Wei Zhao said with a hint of apology. "Alright, we can look for a suitable body for Qingxue on our journey. You can't stay a cat forever," Song Weizhi said matter-of-factly. Wei Zhao widened his eyes. What did the master's words just now mean? Wei Zhao felt that something was not quite right!
