Chapter 12: Not a Beautiful First Meeting

  Finally settled down with Chang Zhe who was being unreasonable, Tang Xin still insisted on leaving with Xun Qi. She was very sleepy and had to go to bed.

  Watching Tang Xin being hugged by Xun Qi and leaving like that, Chang Zhe covered his dark eye sockets and fell into a deep dilemma, wondering whether to follow or not.

  Following Tang Xin = following a freak = suffering physically and mentally, not following Tang Xin = not following a freak = suffering from conscience, after a simple comparison, Chang Zhe still hesitantly followed Nie Dongge and Xun Qi back to the so-called mountain stronghold.

  Actually, that mountain stronghold was a small school, founded by Xun Qi. Every time he saw a child with good talent, he would abduct the person to the mountain stronghold... no, bring them back to the school, and use a combination of coaxing and deception to get the children to become apprentices.

  Chang Zhe's eyes widened in awe as he stared at Xun Qi, for creating a sect was no easy feat.

  Even the smallest and weakest sects must have at least one Golden Dan stage elder to preside over them, otherwise they will only be destroyed by stronger forces. Next is the cultivation method that belongs to their own sect.

  As for talent, that requires accumulation over time. So Xun Qi thinking he can do this with his own strength is simply delusional. And with a bunch of drag-along Qi-refining stage beginners following behind him, it's simply a joke, and even more so a provocation to the surrounding major and minor powers, openly making enemies.

  Chang Zhe's face twitched, and he said, "You're really something else, how could you be so stupid?"

  Nie Dong looked at his younger brother's lifeless eyes and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyebrows, knowing that this guy had fallen into a trance again. Nie Dong ignored him resolutely and sat cross-legged on the bed to meditate. This time, he was ordered by his master to take Chang Zhe down the mountain because Chang Zhe had lost his memory since waking up two years ago and never returned home.

  This time, bringing Chang Zhe back to the family is just to let him see his relatives and take a look at why he returned to the family with serious injuries that year. And this strange child he met must be brought back to Shu Mountain personally, it's too dangerous to stay outside.

  At this time, Tang Xin did not rest. Things were like this, Tang Xin followed Xun Qi back to the still somewhat decent sect, found the most comfortable big bed and prepared to sleep when rustling sounds came from the window, Tang Xin turned his head in displeasure, only to see a small kitten sneaking in quietly.

  Tang Xin's mouth curved into a smile as she gazed at the adorable kitten climbing up the window, her eyes shining with an unknown light. The little cat that had just snuck in suddenly felt a chill run down its spine, looked up and was immediately stunned.

  Found out?

  At this time, Xun Qi, who pushed open the door to prepare food for Tang Xin, saw such a scene: The little kid's face was filled with an innocent and joyful expression (??) as he gazed deeply at the little kitten, which had its neck raised as if it were stunned (??), in a "deep" (??) stare.

  "Cough, little Tang Xin, since you like that kitten, just raise it for fun." Xun Qi suppressed the laughter that was about to overflow from his throat and pretended to be calm, putting down the plate of pastries he was holding on the table. Then, swaying his waist and walking with a cat-like gait, he slowly walked out.

  Watching Xun Qi walk away with a cat-like gait, the entire room fell into an eerie silence. Tang Xin's pure smile cracked slightly, and in the round eyes of that unrecognizable little kitten, a hint of horror seemed to flash by.

  Xun Da Jun Shi, what on earth has stimulated you so much?!

  After a long while, Tang Xin suddenly lowered her head and saw the little kitten carefully snuggling up against her feet. It seemed to have sensed Tang Xin's gaze, and its soft body trembled slightly. Tang Xin suppressed the urge to pick up the ball of fluff and caress it, telling herself in her heart that she must hold on tight and not be bought off by its cuteness...

  Finally, the kitten climbed into Tang Xin's arms and begged for petting. So Tang Xin told herself that this guy had come to her of his own accord.

  Good boy!

  The little kitten rolled its eyes in a very human-like manner, out of Tang Xin's sight. If it wasn't afraid of being caught by that demon, it wouldn't be playing with this kid here, really damaging its image. If its subordinates found out, it would be finished.

  Deceived, absolutely deceived!!

  But Tang Xin didn't know that he had unconsciously ruined the villainous lord and military advisor's first good meeting.

  That little kitten is the protagonist and villain of this world, it's simply miserable to the extreme. It was insulted, ridiculed, hunted down, betrayed, and seriously injured when it had no power; after gaining power, it was still insulted, ridiculed, provoked, hunted down, and seriously injured by even stronger foes; and after becoming overwhelmingly powerful, it was still plotted against, hunted down, and seriously injured...

  Yunlan: "......" If I don't destroy the world, it would be a waste of myself!

  Yun Luan was severely injured while escaping from the Yun Dynasty Palace, and obtained his first Golden Finger - the legacy of the number one symbol array master in the Xianxia world.

  Then he spent less than five years learning most of it, and when he was being hunted down by his stepmother Ouyang PeiPei, he invented a new formation: Phantom Shape.

  Yunlan bursts in while Xun Qi is resting and uses his own symbol array to pique Xun Qi's curiosity and interest, then the two quickly become thick as thieves. As Yunlan's strength grows stronger in the future, Xun Qi also quickly finds his own position - a military strategist who devises plans!

  Nitrogen

  Tang Xin's sudden appearance made this plot directly float away...

  Of course, Tang Xin did not know that Yun Lian met Xun Qi in this way. The description in the book is only that Yun Lian and Xun Qi had a destined encounter in a declining small sect, one discovering the other's talent like a master finding his horse, or Bo Ya meeting Ziqi. It has to be said, this is already a complete world, with the laws of heaven filling in all the details perfectly.

  Later, Yun Luan gradually became famous, and this dark history of being hunted down and transformed into a kitten was abandoned in some unknown corner. Occasionally, when it couldn't be helped, he would transform into an image with a majestic and powerful aura.

  So Tang Xin never thought that this weak little kitten would be the villain.

  Please allow us to light a row of candles for the completely unaware Tang Xin!

  "From now on, you'll be called Maruko," said Tang Xin with a serious yet soft and gentle tone.

  At the age of sixteen, Yunlan's body stiffened for a moment, but before Tang Xin noticed, she returned to her previous gentle demeanor. In her heart, however, she was secretly cursing: Heaven knows why she was given such an unpretentious name. This kid, apart from looking good, is simply a naming failure.

  "Little ball!" Tang Xin laughed and called out, but found that the little bun in her arms was completely rational.

  At that moment, Tang Xin's smile became even more radiant, completely disregarding whether the kitten could understand human language or not: "If you don't respond to me, I'll put you and Xun Qi's dog together for a match!"

  Nie Donggo's gaze swept across another room with his divine sense: "......" It seemed like he had heard something earth-shattering.

  Just as she was concentrating on her work, Xun Qi's hand shook and the half-finished peony embroidery was ruined. She remained silent for a long time before suddenly bursting into a loud and clear laughter from the embroidery room.

  It's really - too lovely! He really picked up a treasure.
