"Click~"
The door was opened from the outside, and a figure walked in, saying, "Oh, I'm finally back. I'm exhausted."
Upon seeing Yue Jiuzai return, Yue Jiuling stood up and said, "You've worked hard, Jiuzai. You must be tired after running around all day. Come back quickly, wash your hands, and have some food."
"Well, it's alright. We had a good haul today. September, come here and bring us our haul for today, and that surprise too."
As Yue Jiuzai entered the house, he called out to Yue Jiuyue, who was still outside at the door, "Hurry up and come in."
"Wow, you even brought back a little orange! I heard this little guy has a big appetite!"
Yue Jiuli spotted the little thing Yue Jiuyue was holding as she entered. She immediately went over to take it, then stroked the little orange cat and said, "Tsk tsk tsk, so this is the little surprise you were talking about. Not bad, I quite like this surprise."
Meow~ Meow~
The little orange cat was sleeping in Yue Jiuyue's arms, but as soon as Yue Jiuyue took it away, it immediately woke up and started meowing softly.
"Oh dear, why is it blind?"
Yue Jiu Nian also came over to look at the little orange cat, but as soon as she saw the little orange cat's eyes, she immediately frowned and said, "It's so pitiful, it's actually a little blind cat."
"Yes, how could this happen?"
Yue Jiujie also spoke up, asking Yue Jiuling, "Jiuling, do you want to keep it?"
In fact, Yue Jiuling also liked these small animals quite a bit, especially since this one was her own descendant, a fellow animal. So she said, "I'll take it in, but I need to get my eyes fixed first. I can't stay blind forever."
As she spoke, Yue Jiuling reached out and touched the kitten's eyes. The eyes that Yue Jiuling touched immediately shone with a white light, and then the kitten's eyes became like those of a normal cat.
"Alright, welcome to our newest member, little cutie."
Yue Jiuling hugged the bewildered kitten that could see the world clearly now. She said, "I have no objection to you keeping it, but you must keep the house clean. Otherwise, I won't care if it's our offspring or not, I'll still give it away."
"OK, don't worry about that. I can teach it how to live in this house in three days."
Upon hearing Yue Jiuling's words, Yue Jiuzai confidently said, "Actually, I think we can take it as our apprentice, hehe, how about we experience being a master for a while?"
"Taking on apprentices? How come I didn't think of that?"
Upon hearing the suggestion, Yue Jiuxing immediately agreed, saying, "Jiuling, Jiuling, let's take it as our disciple. That way, we'll have a demon with a disciple too."
"Yeah, this is really fun."
Yue Jiuyue also said, "Jiuling, shall we take it as our apprentice?"
"Actually, taking on an apprentice is a good idea, don't you think?"
Yue Jiuli also said.
"Well, okay, but we also need to see if it has the talent. Let's awaken its intelligence tonight."
Yue Jiuling finally agreed to take the kitten as her apprentice. Although she didn't know why adopting it had turned into taking it as an apprentice, she figured that after being an old monster for so long, taking an apprentice wasn't a bad idea.
"Alright, let's eat first. We can start taking on apprentices after we finish eating."
Yue Jiuling channeled some spiritual energy into the little orange cat, and then let it absorb the energy and develop its intelligence on its own. She said, "I'll give it some spiritual energy first and see how much it can absorb. If it has good talent, we can take it as an apprentice."
"Okay, but shouldn't we give it a name first?"
September walked to the dining table and said, "It's weird to always call someone 'Cat' when they don't have a name~"
"Let's try to make it intelligent first, then we can let it name itself."
Yue Jiu Jie picked up her chopsticks, ready to start eating, and said, "Actually, I value its talent more."
"Me too."
Yue Jiuzai nodded and said, "If the talent isn't good, then it can only be raised as an ordinary cat."
“A regular cat is fine too, it’s not like we can’t afford to keep one.”
While eating, Yue Jiuxing said, "Just think of it as raising a little junior~"
Because they were having hot pot today, they could chat while eating and didn't have to worry about the weather getting too cold. They could eat slowly without any problem.
Yue Jiuling picked up a piece of fish belly and said, "Alright, hurry up and eat. After you're full, let's go see if its talent is any good."
