Chapter 127 World Four [13]
We cannot believe everything, which also means we cannot completely deny what the evil cultivator says.
What the other party said about the appearance of evil demons might be true, because the main force against the evil demons is the eight major sects and the Special Affairs Bureau. If the evil demons are strong, they are very likely to suffer heavy casualties.
As for the secret method that the other party claimed could lead to a breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage, the credibility of this matter was relatively low. This was because the evil cultivator had not made any significant progress in his cultivation during the period when he successfully took over the body.
If the evil cultivator really knew how to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, apart from anything else, he would at least not be stuck at the sixth level of Qi Refining now.
According to Junior Brother's physique, after successfully drawing Qi into his body and opening up his meridians, even if he slacks off every day, he can probably break through to the fifth level of Qi Refining.
Sect Leader Wen nodded, "Indeed. If it weren't for Qiuyu's decisiveness, I would have imprisoned that evil cultivator's soul and tortured him."
"The evil cultivator is full of tricks. If we let him go, he might turn around and threaten and seduce us." Wen Ruyue paused and touched the little white tiger in her arms.
Wen Ruyue: "A method that can lead to a breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage is a great temptation for both us human cultivators and those great demons in the Golden Core stage. Once he spreads this information, even if there are no evil demons, it will be enough to stir up a bloody storm."
Jing Ke, lying in Wen Ruyue's arms, lazily wagged his tail, distractedly listening to the conversation between his breeder and Sect Leader Wen, while thinking about the origins of the so-called evil cultivator.
If it was simply a possession, there's no reason why Jing Ke couldn't tell the difference after spending so much time with Qin Guang. The other soul's compatibility with Qin Guang's body was so high that Jing Ke couldn't help but have another guess.
Is it possible that the soul was selected by someone who was superior to the local cultivators and deliberately released into this small world?
The last words uttered by the soul before its death contained a lot of information. It is not ruled out that the other party used exaggeration in order to survive.
But Jing Ke's intuition told her that he really knew the so-called future through some means.
Considering that the world consciousness will not harm itself, after eliminating the impossible options, it seems that the only culprit who caused Qin Guang to be possessed is that person.
rule.
The rules have always been against Wen Ruyue. If it is really the work of the rules, everything makes sense.
The rules were meant to trip up Wen Ruyue, or even destroy her, so Qin Guang was possessed by a soul from another world.
A visitor from another world, with the identity of a so-called time traveler, who knows the future in advance through some means, will naturally feel that he is the child of destiny.
The question arises again, why does the rule target Wen Ruyue? Moreover, the rule seems to particularly like to project its true form into the person it chooses, allowing that person to target Wen Ruyue.
It was the same this time. If she had woken up in the little white tiger's body a little later, the person who signed the contract with the little white tiger might have successfully taken over Qin Guang's body.
Once the divine beast Little White Tiger really signs a contract with the possessor, the other party's strength will definitely increase significantly. Relying on the world consciousness's preference for divine beasts, the possessor can definitely devour the soul that originally belonged to Qin Guang and achieve 100% harmony between soul and body.
After thinking about this, Jing Ke couldn't help but snuggle into Wen Ruyue's arms. After feeling the other's body temperature and heartbeat, the panic in his heart was reduced a little.
Wen Ruyue, who was talking with her master, noticed the little white tiger's action and naturally unzipped her coat to allow Jing Ke to get closer to her.
After seeing his eldest disciple's natural movements, Sect Leader Wen couldn't help but take a closer look at the little white tiger.
"It seems that you and the little white tiger get along very well?" said Master Wen, his originally serious expression gradually softening.
Although Sect Leader Wen has five disciples, the one she cares about the most is definitely her adopted daughter and eldest disciple. Sect Leader Wen truly treats Wen Ruyue as her own child.
"Well, Jing Ke... is quite clingy to me." After talking about the little white tiger, the slightly heavy atmosphere dissipated, and Wen Ruyue couldn't help but smile.
At the same time, Wen Ruyue couldn't help but feel thankful in her heart. She was thankful that the little white tiger had woken up and jumped into her arms without hesitation. She was also thankful that she had put away the knife at that time and did not attack the little white tiger.
Of course, the most fortunate thing is that the little white tiger signed a contract directly with me, so that I did not do anything wrong when I was stupid.
Sect Leader Wen also smiled. "Alright, for now, we're the only ones who know what that evil cultivator said. I'll have a chat with the Director-General of the Special Management Bureau when the time comes."
"If an evil demon really were to emerge, there wouldn't be any signs without warning. Furthermore, there's only so much spiritual energy right now, and it's hard to say how powerful the demon would be once it awakens. Don't worry about that. Even if the sky does fall, we'll still hold it up."
Sect Leader Wen said that he decided to skip this topic for now. There was no need to worry in advance about dangers that might not come for who knows how many years.
-
After Qin Guang was rescued from the formation by Zhu Qiuyu, he was in a coma for nearly two days and two nights before slowly waking up.
The good news is that Qin Guang has no problems with his body. He can crawl and jump and his skills are still there. He looks very healthy.
The bad news is that Qin Guang only recognizes his master, Sect Leader Wen, and his senior sister, Wen Ruyue. He has lost all his memories from the age of seventeen to twenty-two, and he no longer remembers anything he learned or experienced during this period.
Qin Guang himself was quite happy, although he regretted that he had not been able to get into the university of the senior sister and become her junior. But when Qin Guang found that he had become a sixth-level Qi Refining cultivator after waking up from a sleep, he couldn't help but grin in laughter.
After using a relatively advanced spell in a rather childish way, he took photos and shouted thank you for the gift from nature.
Then, Qin Guang was rushed over and brutally suppressed by the cold-faced and ruthless senior sister Wen Ruyue.
"Since you don't remember anything, then start from the very basics. Not only that, you also need to catch up on the lessons you missed in high school and college. Otherwise, you'll be stuck at the sect's headquarters forever, and forget about going out and slaying demons."
Wen Ruyue's words made Qin Guang, who was grinning like a fool, dumbfounded. Zhu Qiuyu, who was waiting on the side, laughed at him. Zhu Qiuyu was also assigned an extra task by Wen Ruyue.
Wen Ruyue looked at Zhu Qiuyu calmly and said, "And you, Junior Sister, now is a good opportunity for you to make amends. Before New Year's Day, have Junior Brother memorize all the basic knowledge a cultivator needs to know. Also, have him review the commonly used spells, techniques, and talismans."
"How about it, little junior sister, can you do it?" Wen Ruyue asked.
Zhu Qiuyu silently retracted the smile on her face, stood up straight, and promised, "Don't worry, Senior Sister, I will complete the task!"
"What about you, little junior brother? Can you do it?" Wen Ruyue shifted her gaze to Qin Guang.
"Don't worry, Senior Sister, I will work hard too! As long as Junior Sister teaches me, I will learn!" Qin Guang also patted his chest and promised, "I will work hard to follow in your footsteps! I will become your most useful junior brother!"
After hearing this, Zhu Qiuyu couldn't help but look at Qin Guang and silently refreshed his cognition.
It turns out that the junior brother is actually a fanatical admirer of the senior sister. It seems that I have never seen such a tone and posture before.
After realizing what was happening, Zhu Qiuyu couldn't help but feel a little complicated.
If that was true, then wasn't she a complete idiot? She'd been deceived by a possessed cultivator for over five years! She hadn't even noticed anything was amiss! Hadn't all her sincerity been wasted?
Fortunately, my unlucky second and third brothers were in the same boat as me. At least I managed to kill the evil cultivator and vent my anger. But my two brothers were not so lucky.
-
After arranging the little junior sister and brother, Wen Ruyue returned to her house in Hai City and began to prepare delicious food for Jing Ke, the little tiger, while trying to get some information about the soul contract from her.
Jing Ke, the little tiger, pretended to be ignorant even though he knew the truth. He was ruthless when ordering Wen Ruyue around. He also ate everything at Ku Ku, which made Wen Ruyue place two additional orders with Yu Sijin.
The food supply increased from twenty ordinary spirit stones per month to fifty ordinary spirit stones per month.
After finding that she could not get any useful clues from Jing Ke, the little tiger, Wen Ruyue had to change direction and accepted a task to deliver confidential information to the Dongzhou City Special Management Bureau, and drove to Dongzhou City by the way.
After delivering the information to Director Hao, Wen Ruyue also stated her purpose and asked about Gu Qi's condition.
"Gu Qi, we have verified what she said and there is nothing wrong with it. However, she has not passed the relevant exams and is currently staying in a guest room dedicated to reception." Director Hao said.
"She's in Room 303. If you want to see her, just go there directly. She's now a guest of the Special Management Bureau, not a suspect in temporary custody." Director Hao smiled and kindly pointed out the location of the guest room.
"Thank you, Director Hao." Wen Ruyue thanked him politely.
"You're welcome. It's us from the Dongzhou Special Management Bureau who should thank you. Although Gu Qi hasn't harmed humans yet, she's not registered after all. If we don't find her and take control of her in time, who knows how much trouble she'll cause in the future."
As Director Hao spoke, his eyes couldn't help but move upwards to look at Jing Ke who was stepping on Wen Ruyue's head.
"There is also the mythical beast, the little white tiger. If it weren't for the help of the little white tiger, Gu Qi, as a seven-tailed fox, would definitely not cooperate with us so well." Director Hao said with a smile in his eyes.
It seems that the senior sister of Lingxiao Sect is very precious to the little white tiger she contracted, and she even allows it to step on her head.
"Ouch~" Jing Ke met Director Hao's gaze and called out perfunctorily as a response to her.
Director Hao didn't mind the divine beast's perfunctory attitude. As someone who could be the director of a branch, he naturally knew what the existence of the divine beast meant to the cultivators, so he just smiled.
If Wen Ruyue hadn't said that the little white tiger didn't like other people touching it, Director Hao would have definitely touched the beast to get some luck.
-
After successfully arriving at 303, Wen Ruyue knocked on the door politely while holding the little white tiger.
After hearing a weak but breathless sound coming from inside the room, he pushed open the door, bent down slightly and walked in.
"Who... why is it you? What are you doing here? I haven't done anything wrong recently!" After seeing Wen Ruyue coming in with the little white tiger, Gu Qi was immediately stressed and took a big step back in an instant.
"Well, I don't mean any harm, I just want to ask you a few questions." Wen Ruyue pulled out a chair and sat down, keeping a certain distance from Gu Qi.
Gu Qi was busy reciting the strange regulations of the Special Management Bureau. If Wen Ruyue hadn't come with Little White Tiger, she would have rolled her eyes at him and kicked him out.
"If you have any questions, just ask." Gu Qi said reluctantly.
"I want to ask what the soul contract is." Wen Ruyue didn't beat around the bush and directly asked her question.
"Huh? You want to ask me this question? In front of your divine beast? Is this also part of the assessment?" Gu Qi frowned, and the word "confusion" was written all over his bright features.
"Yes." Wen Ruyue nodded.
"Didn't your divine beast tell you what the soul contract represents?" Gu Qi was skeptical.
Wen Ruyue shook her head and pinched the little tail that was dangling near her ear. "I only know part of it. I don't really understand what a soul contract means."
Gu Qi hesitated to speak, looked up at the little white tiger, and after finding that she had no intention of asking him to shut up, he told her what he knew.
"I only heard about the soul contract from my elders. It is a contract that can only be signed between a spirit beast or a divine beast with a certain level of bloodline and a human."
Gu Qi: "Soul Contract, as you can tell from the literal meaning, this is a contract that directly binds the soul. It is more overbearing than any other contract. Once signed, it cannot be terminated unless one party's soul dissipates."
"Is it even reincarnation?" Wen Ruyue asked.
Gu Qi shook his head at first, then nodded. "Souls are bound together, so life and death are naturally bound together. If a divine beast signs a contract with a human, they usually share a lifespan, so the chosen human usually doesn't need to reincarnate."
"Of course, if reincarnation is necessary for special reasons, the contract will naturally exist and will not be affected by changing the body," Gu Qi added.
Shared lifespan, soul binding.
Wen Ruyue couldn't help but repeat these words in her mind, and her hand that was touching the little tiger's tail couldn't help but stop.
"If I get injured or have an accident, will it affect my contracted beast?" Wen Ruyue asked.
Gu Qi touched his chin. "I'm not sure about that. Divine beasts rarely sign soul contracts with humans. But according to the stories passed down by my elders, in times of abundant spiritual energy, divine beasts and humans who signed soul contracts lived and died together, and their souls dissipated together and returned to the world."
"In the Dharma Ending Age, the chances of signing a soul contract with a mythical beast are even smaller than winning a 500 million yuan jackpot. Did you have a relationship with the mythical white tiger in your past life, which is why she chose you?"
Gu Qi was putting herself in other people's shoes. She was rekindling her old relationship with her lover, and maybe the couple in front of her was the same.
"I, I don't know." Wen Ruyue had no memory of her so-called past life.
What's more, according to the description of the remnant soul of the divine beast in the secret realm, the little white tiger has been living in the secret realm since birth. Not long after, it encountered a rapid decline in the concentration of spiritual energy in the outside world, and was forced to prolong its life by sleeping.
Theoretically speaking, it seems that there is no chance that Jing Ke and I have a connection in our previous life.
"You don't know it yourself, so I, an outsider, am even less clear. You might as well ask your sacred beast more. After making her happy, maybe you will know the answer." Gu Qi said with his hands spread out.
Thinking about the fact that he had failed the entrance exam three times, Gu Qi couldn't help but start to chase people away. "If you don't have any other questions, please don't stay with me. I need to endorse the book."
"Okay, thank you." Wen Ruyue thanked him.
When she stood up and prepared to leave, she couldn't help but look back at Gu Qi, who had a face full of hatred.
"Are you worried about the entrance examination? Do you need me to highlight some key points for you?" Wen Ruyue said, deciding to repay the favor immediately.
"Hmm? The key point, what's the key point?" Gu Qi looked up at Wen Ruyue.
"That's the focus of the test. If you memorize those, passing the test shouldn't be a big problem." Wen Ruyue said.
The assessment for the spirits to enter the world is not difficult. It is more about making the spirits learn to adapt to human rules, not breaking the corresponding laws, and not hurting or scaring people at will.
So from another perspective, Gu Qi's willingness to stay in the Special Management Bureau and honestly endorse and participate in the so-called assessment is already another level of qualification.
"Ahem, thank you for your help... uh, Miss Wen." Gu Qi suddenly became polite and very sensibly handed the notebook in his hand to Wen Ruyue.
Wen Ruyue did not give the other party a perfunctory answer. After sitting down again, she underlined and marked all the key parts of the exam.
Instead of having to memorize an entire book, Gu Qi only needed to recite about fifteen pages, which instantly reduced her burden by more than five times.
"Thank you very much. If you have any questions in the future, please feel free to come to me. You can also call me if you need my help." After seeing the so-called key points, Gu Qi immediately became energetic.
That’s great. If it’s only fifteen pages long, I can memorize it by heart in two days at most!
She finally didn't have to rack her brains every day to come up with excuses to hide her lover. In two days, it would be time for her to leave this crappy place!
"Then, how about exchanging contact information?" Wen Ruyue did not refuse.
A monster that has lived for nearly a thousand years must know much more than himself. When the relationship becomes closer, perhaps he can indirectly obtain information related to the evil spirit.
-
After coming out of the Special Management Bureau, Wen Ruyue sat in her car and took Jing Ke, the little tiger, off her head.
"Is everything Gu Qi said true?" Wen Ruyue passed through the little tiger's two front paws, lifted her upper body up, and let her look at herself.
Jing Ke's amber eyes were filled with innocence. Not only that, after meeting the breeder's gaze, she deliberately tilted her head and shook her ears to act cute.
Wen Ruyue slowly exhaled, "Jing Ke, may I know why you signed a contract with me?"
Jing Ke continued to play dumb, slowly blinking his big eyes, shaking his ears and wagging his tail, gently sweeping the tip of his tail across the inside of Wen Ruyue's arm.
Wen Ruyue pursed her lips and clenched her back teeth where Jing Ke couldn't see.
She was not angry or dissatisfied, she was simply a hidden veteran furry lover, and Wen Ruyue could hardly control herself.
To be more precise, from the moment the little white tiger rolled into a ball and pounced towards her, Wen Ruyue had been trying hard to suppress her urge to suck the fur.
At first, Wen Ruyue was worried that her physique would affect Maorong. After signing the contract, she was worried that her desire to bury her head in Maorong's belly and suck hard would be too offensive to the growing little white tiger.
Wen Ruyue, who had been holding back until now, was beginning to lose control, not to mention that the little tiger Jing Ke was still trying to act cute.
How could a veteran furry lover possibly stand the sight of a little white tiger with its eyes wide open, head tilted, ears shaking, and even the tip of its tail teasing him?
Thinking of what Gu Qi said, that a soul contract can only be terminated when one party's soul dissipates, Wen Ruyue chose to indulge herself once.
Wen Ruyue gave up on the so-called answer and buried her entire face in the furry and soft belly of the little white tiger, sucking wildly and sighing with satisfaction.
Ah, buried it~
It's so comfortable. I have no regrets in dying.
