[Cat-Petting Daoist Nun]

Inside the Back Mountain Study, Ji Li had nothing to do, so she sat on the edge of the bed, propping her chin up with her hand as she gazed at Lu Xun's face for a long time.

She once thought of capturing this man to be her Cauldron, but she never expected that in just a few days, he would become one of the most senior members of the Demon Sect.

Even now, Ji Li couldn't understand why he dared to jump off Reception Peak that day.

The truth was, if he had died, people would have just thought he was a bit of an idiot, but because he didn't die, people thought he was bold!

Lu Xun had only been in the Demon Sect for a few days, but his name had already resounded throughout the entire Demon Sect!

All the members of the Demon Sect knew that Teacher had another disciple.

Various discussions emerged endlessly.

"I heard that he's extremely handsome. Even Elder Qiu Shui of the Outer Sect said while chatting with other Outer Sect Elders that she's never seen a man more handsome than Little Martial Grand-Aunt!"

"I heard that Little Martial Grand-Aunt didn't hesitate at all before jumping off the cliff that day! We who seek the Great Path should have such decisiveness!"

"Cultivation is about opportunity. Little Martial Grand-Aunt must be someone with great opportunities!"

"I heard that the newly entered Junior Sister Ji Li of the Outer Sect has excellent aptitude, with eight ripples. I wonder what Little Martial Grand-Aunt's aptitude is like? It must be above Junior Sister Ji, right?"

"I wonder when Little Martial Grand-Aunt will wake up. I really want to see if he's really that handsome."

Various rumors and discussions spread throughout the Outer Sect and the main peaks of the Demon Sect. Even the Elders and Deacons occasionally couldn't help but chat about it. Only Sect Master Shen Yan was still wallowing in heartache, wholeheartedly playing the part of a tragic braised egg.

Now, the entire Demon Sect was waiting for Lu Xun to awaken.

"When will you wake up?"

Ji Li sat by the bed, looking at Lu Xun, her right hand propping up her chin, squeezing a curve into her slightly chubby face.

Outside the Back Mountain Study, Mao Nanbei had been basking in the sun on the rattan chair for a long time and was almost asleep. She opened her small mouth and couldn't help but yawn.

A dark and shiny figure flashed before her eyes. She slightly lifted her eyelids and knew who it was.

Wearing a black robe, with a shiny head, and short in stature, who else could it be but the Demon Sect Sect Master, Braised… Shen Yan?

Even the peak masters of the main peaks couldn't enter the Back Mountain Study casually, but Shen Yan, as the Sect Master, was an exception. He had the authority to enter and exit the Back Mountain Study, but he didn't usually come.

"Greetings, Martial Aunt," Shen Yan said, bowing.

Mao Nanbei stretched lazily, like a kitten stretching its limbs after basking in the sun.

"Something the matter?" she asked.

Shen Yan said, "I'm here to see how Little Martial Grand-Aunt's injuries are recovering."

"Nothing else?" Mao Nanbei asked again.

"No," Shen Yan nodded.

In fact, he really had other things, but it wasn't convenient to tell Mao Nanbei directly, and he was too embarrassed to say it.

Shen Yan was a giant in the cultivation world, the prestigious Sect Master of the Demon Sect, a top figure with monstrous demonic flames.

However, this person had a characteristic—he was particularly stingy.

A top-grade spiritual pill made his heart ache immensely, and he was always thinking about how to make up for it somewhere.

He pondered for several days, and finally, a lightbulb went off in his head!

That's why he rushed over here.

Shen Yan looked at Mao Nanbei, thought for a moment, and said, "Martial Aunt, I'll stay here for a while longer. Martial Aunt can rest for a moment."

Mao Nanbei's cat ears immediately perked up, and she jumped up from the chair and disappeared in a puff of smoke.

She was still a child at heart and couldn't sit still.

The reason she had been sitting outside the Back Mountain Study, seemingly basking in the sun, was actually to watch over Lu Xun.

After all, he had been so seriously injured before, and although he was recovering well now, it was better to have someone watching over him.

Ji Li has only just stepped through the door of cultivation. She can only do some chores. In case something goes wrong, cultivators still need to take action.

Teacher, plus Lu Xun, has a total of five disciples. Eldest Senior Brother and Third Senior Brother have gone on a trip with Teacher, leaving only her and Second Senior Sister at home.

Second Senior Sister has a cold personality, and due to some special reasons, she can't leave that bamboo forest for the time being, so Mao Nanbei can only come by herself.

Asking a small child to sit still for days on end is a bit difficult for her.

But Lu Xun is, after all, the person she brought back, and now he has become her Little Martial Grand-Nephew, so Mao Nanbei has this much sense of responsibility.

Now that Shen Yan is here to watch over things, naturally nothing can go wrong, so she can run out and stretch her muscles!

Cats are naturally agile, and Mao Nanbei, as a little cat demon, is even more so. She doesn't fly, but runs wildly in the back mountain, heading towards that bamboo forest.

In the center of the bamboo forest, the Daoist Nun-like woman is still sitting quietly on the large rock.

She seems to have grown on this rock, meditating here day after day.

When Mao Nanbei approaches her, her speed is still very fast, but it is silent.

Cats naturally don't make much noise when they move. They can always approach silently and then deliver a fatal blow to their prey!

Not far from the woman, Mao Nanbei leaps and pounces on the woman on the rock.

Kids, always up to pranks.

Just as her little hand is about to touch the wooden hairpin stuck in the woman's hair, the woman suddenly moves.

She is facing away from Mao Nanbei, and with a wave of her sleeve, a burst of energy envelops Mao Nanbei.

She reaches out and summons Mao Nanbei into her hand.

The woman's movements are very fast. She extends a finger and lightly touches Mao Nanbei's brow. A white light dances at her fingertip. With a single strike, she directly breaks Mao Nanbei's transformation!

With her transformation broken, she is no longer a cat-eared loli, but directly turns into a small black cat.

The woman hooks her hand back and places Mao Nanbei on her crossed legs.

The right hand inside the Daoist robe sleeve is fair and slender, soft and boneless. If a hand fetishist saw this hand, they would be fascinated.

She reaches out to touch Mao Nanbei's head, touch her cat ears, and smooth her cat fur.

Mao Nanbei turns around, looking ashamed and indignant, and extends her chubby cat paw to hold down the woman's right hand, preventing her from touching.

The woman ignores her, pulls her hand out, and instead reaches for Mao Nanbei's little belly.

Mao Nanbei continues to use her cat paw to hold down her hand, preventing her again.

After repeating this three times, she resigns herself to lying on the woman's crossed legs, squinting her eyes and enjoying the woman's slender fingers stroking her cat fur.

Her cat-petting skills are very high.

Mao Nanbei finally abandons all pretense, and then, squinting her eyes, makes a very soft sound:

"Meow~"
