Chapter 178 Su Ying'er's Attempt to Steal a Chicken Backfires
Su Ying'er was taken aback. How did this spirit beast know her name?
She looked at the pheasant with a newfound wariness.
I wanted to hear what it had to say more, but Master Qingyu sealed its mouth.
Seeing Su Ying'er still standing there in a daze, Master Qingyu frowned. "Is this contract spell so difficult? What have you learned in the past year under my tutelage?"
Yuehua is a prodigy, excelling in everything from talismans and formations to simple bond spells, which Su Ying'er couldn't even memorize.
Su Ying'er's back trembled, and she dared not dawdle any longer.
But just as she was about to begin chanting the incantation, she met the pheasant's gray-white eyes, which had no pupils, and felt a chill run down her spine for no apparent reason.
Are those eerie eyes really from a spirit beast?
Moreover, the frantic roar it gave when it called her name earlier felt strangely familiar, especially considering that Jiang Li had suddenly given up on the spirit beast...
So her eyes flickered, and she put on a kind expression, saying, "Master, I think the spirit beast seems quite resistant. If I disregard its wishes and rashly form a contract with it, how would that be any different from being a robber? Why don't I let me communicate with it for a few days first, and then form a contract with it when it's willing to..."
The Su Ying'er of the past was known for her kindness and charm. Whenever any of her fellow disciples were injured, she would feel their pain as if it were her own, and she would be even more heartbroken than the injured person herself.
I remember once Ye Li killed several attacking magical beasts. In order to protect her junior brothers and sisters, Ye Li did her best.
But when the crisis was over, Su Ying'er cried while guarding those magical beasts.
'Why exterminate them all... Waaah, this monster is so small, it's still a child!'
She cried her heart out, completely forgetting how the child she was talking about had chased her away in disarray just fifteen minutes earlier.
She cried so much that she couldn't eat or drink. All her fellow disciples surrounded Su Ying'er to comfort her and even helped her dig a pit to bury those magical beasts.
Ye Li, who was injured in a fierce battle with the monster, became the executioner and was ignored by everyone.
...
Because of the previous example, Su Ying'er felt that if she said this, her sect would still think she was kind and delay the formation of the contract, just like before.
But she forgot that today's situation was completely different from that day.
Ye Li was the one who killed the demonic beast that day, so they were completely unaffected.
Today's spirit beast was brought back by Mo Hannian through all his efforts. In order to keep this spirit beast, True Person Qingyu promised Ye Li that she could choose any magic weapon from the sect, and even Lu Ziting owed him a favor.
Despite everyone's help, she said that the spirit beast's own wishes should be respected.
The first to lose his temper was Mo Hannian, who coldly said, "Junior Sister, what do you mean by that? Does bringing back this spirit beast for you make me a robber?"
He argued with Su Ying'er for falsely conveying his master's orders, but Su Ying'er actually called him a robber.
Su Ying'er panicked, "No, that's not it, Ying'er means..."
"Su Ying'er!"
Lu Ziting had long harbored a deep loathing for Su Ying'er. Pointing his finger at her, he said, "You're the one who said you wanted a spirit beast. Junior Sister Jiang Li gave you her spirit beast, and now you're saying you want to respect spirit beasts. What exactly do you want!"
Tears welled up in Su Ying'er's eyes, and she shook her head helplessly, "No, that's not how it is, Ying'er didn't mean to blame my senior brothers..."
She tried to tug at Mo Hannian's sleeve, but Mo Hannian avoided her, and Lu Ziting wouldn't even give her a second glance.
Seeing Su Ying'er's flustered appearance, Ye Li scoffed lightly.
Su Ying'er was indeed perceptive and sensed the unusual nature of this "spirit beast".
But the entire Lotus Sect had gone through so much trouble and was in a state of chaos because of her spirit beast, so even if she didn't want it, she had no choice.
Sure enough, just as Ye Li was thinking this, Master Qingyu spoke up.
“Su Ying’er, the Lotus Sect does not tolerate mortals who lack cultivation and are unwilling to make progress. If you think that the will of a spirit beast is more important than cultivation, then you should release this spirit beast and go down the mountain yourself.”
Upon hearing this, Su Ying'er panicked completely. "No, Master, that's not what I meant, Ying'er..."
She glanced at the "pheasant" that was being restrained and struggling wildly, and gritted her teeth, saying, "It's because Ying'er is too soft-hearted. Ying'er will form a contract now."
As Su Ying'er drew closer, the Shaluo on the ground struggled even more frantically.
He still wants revenge on that dead woman!
How could I possibly form a contract with a mortal like Su Ying'er!
Is Su Ying'er out of her mind?! Doesn't she know that forming a contract with him is suicidal?!
Unfortunately, he is currently sealed by Master Qingyu and cannot utter a single word.
He tried to scare Su Ying'er away with his eyes, but Su Ying'er was only thinking that she must not be driven away. She ignored Sha Luoru's anger and placed her hand on his head while chanting a spell.
A flash of white light appeared, and a mark appeared on the foreheads of both Su Ying'er and Sha Luoru.
It disappeared in the next second.
The bond has been formed.
At the same time, Su Ying'er was surrounded by a layer of white light, thus undergoing a complete transformation.
From that moment on, she was no longer a mortal, but a spiritual practitioner!
At this moment, Su Ying'er was completely immersed in joy and even forgot her worries just now.
She spun around excitedly, "I have a spirit now!"
With the dust settled, Ye Li saw no need to stay.
She cupped her hands to Master Qingyu and said, "This disciple takes her leave. I will come to your door when I decide what kind of magic weapon I need."
After saying that, she turned and left, completely disregarding Qingyu Zhenren's reaction.
-
After leaving the Lotus Gate, Ye Li found a place to ask Xie Sixing, "Why didn't you let me take the spirit beast with me just now?"
After understanding the whole story, Ye Li was dumbfounded. "What? That spirit beast is... Shaluo Ru?! Wasn't he dead? How did he come back to life?"
Xie Sixing clicked his tongue twice. "Him, he'd rather be a worm than a decent human being. Didn't you see his eyes? He's not human anymore."
Thinking of those gray-white eyes without pupils, Ye Li shuddered.
but……
She looked up at the direction of the lotus gate, and couldn't help but chuckle. If Su Ying'er knew that the spirit beast she had painstakingly formed a bond with was actually Shaluo Ru, she would probably regret it to the core.
-
Su Ying'er finally got her wish and obtained the spirit beast, and was overjoyed.
At dinner time, she prepared a table full of dishes and invited Master Qingyu and his fellow disciples to celebrate.
She waited for a full hour, and the food grew cold, but no one came.
Clearly, her actions today have offended them.
Su Ying'er felt extremely annoyed after all her efforts had been in vain.
Just then, the disciple guarding the spirit beast rushed over, "Junior Sister Ying'er, you should go and check on your spirit beast."
Su Ying'er was annoyed and asked in a bad tone, "What's wrong with it?"
After the contract was formed, she was afraid that the spirit beast would go mad and hurt her, so she put the spirit beast in a cage in the backyard and sent several disciples to take care of it.
Anyway, she formed a pact with the spirit beast for the sake of a spirit body. Now that she has a spirit body, she doesn't care much about the spirit beast anymore.
To Su Ying'er's surprise, the disciple's next words shocked her.
"That spirit beast must have gone mad, because it keeps saying it's not a pheasant, but something else, a sorcerer?"
Su Ying'er: "What?!"
