One month later.
Qi Yue rushed out of the library with excitement, ran to Qingluan Peak, and pounced on Gu Xingchuan, who was studying the formation.
"Sixth Senior Brother! Sixth Senior Brother! I recently created a formation myself, would you like to see it!"
Feeling the soft, fluffy texture on his neck, Gu Xingchuan reached behind him and grabbed a small creature about the size of a palm, resembling a cat. The creature had a white glow, its fur was crystal clear and snow-white, and it had round, bright eyes.
It was July who had returned to her original form.
Qiyue hadn't realized the problem yet. She just frowned and looked at the huge Gu Xingchuan with a puzzled expression: "Senior brother, how did you get so big?"
"Pfft, hahahaha."
Looking at the soft and adorable Qiyue in front of him, Gu Xingchuan's heart melted. He lovingly held Qiyue in his palm, his face full of affection: "Junior Sister, it's not that I've grown bigger, it's that you've turned back into your original form?"
"What?" Qi Yue's pupils dilated instantly, and she felt her heart die. She looked down at her small body and her soft, furry hands, and she couldn't accept it. She rolled over and lay on her back, looking up at the tall Gu Xingchuan above her.
Tears welled up in my eyes instantly, and I panicked completely.
【Aaaaaah! Why did I turn back into my original form? And without any warning? What if I can't turn back? Waaaaah, am I going to be like this forever? Help…】
Listening to Qiyue's heart-wrenching cries of despair, Gu Xingchuan couldn't quite understand. He thought his junior sister was doing just fine, so adorable.
Thinking this, Gu Xingchuan found Qiyue increasingly adorable. He stroked her fur and said with a doting expression, "Junior Sister, you're quite cute like this. If you could always be like this, that would be wonderful. Your senior brother..."
"Ada!" Qiyue was furious when she heard this. She kicked Gu Xingchuan in the face, and that wasn't enough. She then gave Gu Xingchuan a set of Shadowless Kicks.
"Oh my god, you're absolutely out of your mind! What nonsense are you spouting! This good fortune is for you, do you want it?"
"Junior sister! I was wrong, I was wrong!" Gu Xingchuan covered his handsome face that had been slapped, grabbed Qiyue, wiped the blood from his nose and said, "I'll take you to Master, Master will definitely know."
"Let's not delay, let's go now!"
So the two of them rushed to Lou Xuanzhi's side.
Before Gu Xingchuan and Qiyue could speak, Lou Xuanzhi understood what was going on. He strode over to Gu Xingchuan, hugged Qiyue, and stroked her chin.
"Little guy, are you scared because you suddenly turned back into your original form?"
"Master..." Upon hearing this, tears streamed down Qiyue's face, and she nodded frantically.
Master understands me best, unlike my sixth senior brother...
Thinking about it, Qiyue glared at Gu Xingchuan, but it had no power at all. On the contrary, Gu Xingchuan thought Qiyue was extremely cute and showed a maternal smile.
July cried even harder.
Thinking back to when I was in modern times, seeing those cute, angry cats and dogs online only made me feel a sense of shared pain.
Sure enough, when you're vulnerable, even if you're angry, the other person just thinks you're being cute and adorable.
Watching Qiyue cry, even Lou Xuanzhi found it incredibly cute. He couldn't help but think that many people in the mortal world seemed to keep such small and adorable pets, but he seemed to have never kept one before.
Get one!
"Master, can I change back?" Qiyue asked the question that concerned her the most.
Lou Xuanzhi examined it for a while and gave his reply: "You must have just broken through not long ago. A month ago, you ate a lot of nourishing foods. In the past month, you have been lazy and neglected your spiritual power, which has not been fully refined, resulting in unstable spiritual power. That's why it has turned back into a round shape. However, don't worry, just pay attention to it in the future."
Hearing this, Qiyue was relieved, but Gu Xingchuan was somewhat disappointed.
I thought I could pet my junior sister's hair.
However, I was mostly happy. Thankfully, I could turn back, otherwise my junior sister would have been so sad.
Qiyue also asked another question that she cared about: "Master, when will I be able to control myself and not turn back into my original form?"
"That's simple. Just break through to the Nascent Soul stage and enter the Transformation stage. If you want to get rid of your beast form, then you just need to overcome the Immortal Tribulation in the future."
"Immortal Tribulation? Doesn't that require at least a True Immortal?"
“That’s right. So, little one, hurry up and start cultivating. That way you won’t have to worry about anything. And you, as the senior brother, you must cultivate even more. If Master dies one day, you and your senior brothers and sisters must help each other and protect Little Seven and Little Eight.”
“Master…” Gu Xingchuan and Qiyue felt a pang of sadness, but both said firmly, “As long as we are alive, Master will never do that!”
"Perhaps." Lou Xuanzhi's expression was unreadable; he simply put Qiyue down gently.
He said, “From today onwards, your master will be in seclusion for three years to seek a breakthrough. Do not disturb your master unless it is important. But if you are bullied, do not swallow your anger. These are bone talismans that your master has made for you. They can save your lives in times of crisis. Your master will come. Everything is with your master. Remember your master’s words.”
As he spoke, Lou Xuanzhi also transmitted his voice to the others before disappearing.
Gu Xingchuan's eyes were filled with tears: "Then Master, how should I find you?"
“Wuji Mountain Hengya Cave”.
Lou Xuanzhi's voice echoed from the void.
This was a method Lou Xuanzhi had come up with after much deliberation. He had considered that he couldn't rely solely on the little guy to learn about the so-called protagonist's actions.
The most crucial thing is to have the ability to be fearless, even of the Heavenly Dao.
He also believed that during his three-year absence, his disciples would take good care of the little guy, and that the little guy was so smart that he wouldn't let any so-called lucky person succeed.
