I Didn't Push Her

Jiang Wan: I just gave you the Extreme Yin Bead, and now you're giving me the Extreme Yang Bead.

She turned to look at little Jiang Yao, who seemed even more mature than she was, and nodded in agreement.

"Sure, let's go together!"

I thought this little girl was far too composed. Even if children in the Cultivation World matured early, she was maturing way too early.

Perfect. I could see what exactly she was up to.

If they let those two pairs of little short legs walk, who knew how long it would take to get there.

Naturally, Zixiang carried her and flew on her sword to Spirit Beast Peak.

Zixiang looked at the foundation establishment female cultivator opposite her, who was protecting Jiang Yao, and sent a message through divine sense.

"Why did Junior Sister Jiang Yao suddenly think of coming to Spirit Beast Peak?

True Lord Leng Feng is undergoing Tribulation Crossing. Once he succeeds, his cultivation will rise, and he'll surely choose better spirit beasts for the two Junior Sisters. There's no need for them to choose their spirit beasts in such a hurry, is there?"

The foundation establishment female cultivator accompanying Jiang Yao glanced at her, her eyes filled with aloofness and arrogance.

"How could the affairs of the two Junior Sisters be something you can meddle in? We only need to follow them and look after them."

Seeing how unfriendly the other woman was, Zixiang stopped speaking to her.

With an innocent, lively look on her face, Jiang Yao pulled Jiang Wan along as they ran to Spirit Beast Peak. When a senior brother from Spirit Beast Peak saw them arrive, he immediately came forward to ask.

"Two Junior Sisters, what brings you here?"

Jiang Yao answered in a crisp voice,

"Senior Brother, we came to see the newly arrived batch of little Leopard Cats. We both want to raise a Leopard Cat as a spirit pet."

Jiang Wan curiously looked around. Had she ever said that she wanted to raise a Leopard Cat as a spirit pet?

Hearing this, the foundation establishment senior brother warmly led them over to a large cage. Inside the cage were two Leopard Cats.

They were tiny Leopard Cat cubs, each only the size of a palm. Their bodies were covered in snow-white fur, soft and fluffy-looking, as if they would feel wonderful to knead.

Forget a child's heart—whose heart wouldn't melt at the sight?

Jiang Yao looked at her and said,

"Junior Sister, these two kittens look so alike. Why don't we each choose one? You pick first, Junior Sister."

Jiang Wan crouched beside the cage, frowning at the two kitten cubs. She had no idea which one possessed the White Tiger Bloodline, and silently called out in her heart,

"System, System, which one has the White Tiger Bloodline? Huh?"

Even after a long while, the system did not give her a single word.

Jiang Yao beside her urged her on.

"Junior Sister, hurry up and choose!"

Jiang Wan casually picked one. Anyway, the two looked exactly the same, and she could not see any difference.

"Then I'll take this one!"

The snow-white Leopard Cat was taken out and handed to Jiang Wan, but Jiang Yao immediately reached out and held it.

"Junior Sister, this Leopard Cat is so cute. It's so well-behaved!

Oh, right, you don't know how to contract a spirit beast yet, do you? I'll teach you."

As Jiang Yao spoke, she bit her fingertip and let a drop of blood fall onto the little kitten's paw pad. Then, with the addition of a formation, the contract was successfully formed.

"There, see? Just like that. Ah, I forgot this was the one you chose. How about I give you the other one? They're the same anyway."

Jiang Wan watched everything she did. Was this little girl a Tea Tree Spirit or something? Hadn't she just said Jiang Wan should choose first?

Jiang Wan chose one, and then she hugged it over and made it recognize her as its master?

That tea-scented way of talking, that tea-scented behavior—it nearly made Jiang Wan laugh.

Is something wrong with this little girl? Not sure yet. I'll keep watching.

"Oh, so that's how you make it recognize its master. Then thank you."

After saying that, Jiang Wan pointed at the remaining Leopard Cat and said to the Foundation Establishment Cultivator beside her,

"Senior Brother, please take this one out for me!"

This Leopard Cat did not look any different from the other one. Both were covered in white fur without a single stray color.

The little kitten obediently let out a "meow" in her hand.

Jiang Yao urged her from the side.

"Junior Sister, hurry up and contract with it!"

Contract it, contract it. In her previous life, she must have chosen this one. Now that I've snatched it away, she can contract with that Leopard Cat with its lowly bloodline!

In two years, the white down on this cat will shed, and the fur that grows back will be a muddled gray, turning it into a true Leopard Cat.

As for mine, it will awaken the White Tiger Bloodline in its body. Its fur will remain white, and with the bloodline of the Divine Beast White Tiger, all spirit beasts that see it will be crushed beneath the suppression of its bloodline.

Watching her expression, Jiang Wan could not help feeling that Jiang Yao might know something.

A drop of blood merged into the Leopard Cat's body, and the Master-Servant Contract was formed.

[Among countless Leopard Cats, you found the only Leopard Cat in the world possessing the White Tiger Bloodline. It seems you share a special affinity with it.

To revive the Leopard Cat with the White Tiger Bloodline, you revived the entire Leopard Cat clan, spending immense time and enduring countless hardships.

At last, you brought it successfully back to your side and even made it willing to sign a Master-Servant Contract with you once more. The bond between master and servant runs deep enough to move heaven and earth.

Mission complete.

You have taken another great step toward successfully clearing your name.

Mission complete.

Mission reward: Extreme Yang Bead!]

Jiang Wan saw a bead gleaming gold so bright it was nearly white inside the system inventory, reflecting each other with the black bead in the adjacent slot.

One yin and one yang—her obsessive need for symmetry was finally satisfied.

After playing with her newly acquired spirit beast for a while, Jiang Wan held the Leopard Cat and prepared to head back. She was hungry.

Bigu Pills had no nutrition at all, and she was only a little over three years old. She still needed to grow.

"I'm going back to eat."

As she spoke, she remembered something and looked up at the martial uncle standing nearby.

"Senior Brother, what does kitty eat?"

"Spirit Feeding Pills. I happen to have two bottles here, so I'll give them to my two little Master's Nephews. There are ten pills in each bottle, and one pill can last a month."

Looking at the jade bottle held out before her, Jiang Wan saw Jiang Yao accept one, so she accepted one as well.

The moment she took it, Jiang Yao said,

"Junior Sister, the Spirit Feeding Bracelet on your wrist is so pretty. I want one too. Can you let me have a look?"

As Jiang Yao spoke, she reached up to grab the bracelet on Jiang Wan's wrist. This time, Jiang Wan was not going to indulge her. She directly reached out and shoved her over.

She did not know whether she had used too much force, but Jiang Yao actually fell to the ground and rolled once.

"Waaah! Jiang Wan is bullying me! Jiang Wan bullied me and even hit me!"

Jiang Wan rolled her eyes. What kind of brat was this? Jiang Wan had not even agreed, yet she was already reaching for her bracelet. If she got hold of it, she would probably ask for it next.

"Jiang Wan, why are you bullying Yao Yao?"

After watching True Lord Leng Feng undergo Tribulation Crossing, Fairy Xueyun had heard that the two children had come to Spirit Beast Peak while True Lord Leng Feng went into secluded cultivation, so she came over.

The moment she arrived, she saw Jiang Wan push Jiang Yao to the ground.

Jiang Wan looked at Fairy Xueyun, who had flown over, then at Jiang Yao, who was lying on the ground crying.

What a little brat—wherever she falls, that's where she takes a nap.

"Mother, I didn't bully her. She wanted the Spirit Feeding Bracelet daddy gave me, and when I refused, I pushed her once. Then she lay on the ground and refused to get up."

Fairy Xueyun held Jiang Yao in her arms and frowned at Jiang Wan.

"If you didn't want to give it to her, no one was forcing you. Why did you push her to the ground?

It seems I truly need to teach you proper rules. Starting tomorrow, I'll have someone teach you reading, writing, rules, and etiquette. The term will be half a year. Only when you've done well will you begin cultivating again."

Jiang Wan tilted her head, countless question marks appearing over her head.

Is something wrong with her?

She had not treated Jiang Wan like this before.
