She had read through many ancient books and even borrowed his train of thought, but she still had no clue. She clearly saw hope in the future, but she could not find a way. The feeling of powerlessness was like a huge mountain pressing down on her heart. It was too uncomfortable!
Back at the residence.
Without saying a word, he walked towards the backyard. Before he entered, the voices of a cat and a human came from the courtyard. The former was Purple Cat’s voice, while the latter was Crescent Moon’s.
Ji Xueyan’s heart skipped a beat. Purple Cat hadn’t been here for the past two days. He had been guarding the two Vermilion Fruits in his residence. Now that he was here, could it be that he had returned?
Thinking of this, he subconsciously quickened his pace and walked inside.
At the pavilion.
Crescent Moon sat on the stone bench, while Purple Cat sat on the stone table. With one paw, he threw the black grapes into her mouth and then into his own mouth.
Cat Eye glared at Ji Xueyan, who was standing behind her. He picked up a black grape and jumped over the stone table. He landed in her arms and raised the black grape high up. He brought it to her mouth and motioned for her to eat.
Ji Xueyan looked at him with a meaningful look in her eyes. Her red lips opened slightly and she ate the black grape that Purple Cat had passed to her. She spat out the grape skin.
Yue Ya hurriedly stood up from the stone bench.””Miss, you’re back! This servant will prepare hot water and serve you to bathe.”
“Yes.”
He nodded and entered the room with the purple cat in his arms. He closed the door. Without Yue Ya around, it was much easier to talk.
Ji Xueyan lowered her voice and asked with anticipation,”ls he back?”
“Meow!” Purple Cat nodded. “Did he ask you to come and take the first place?”
“Meow!” He nodded again.
Ji Xueyan smiled. According to the information she had received, Zhang Ronghua had been staying in the palace for the past two days. He had even accompanied Ding Yi to see His Majesty last night. It should be related to Ding Yi.
The purple cat raised its paw and pointed at its stomach. It looked at her pitifully as if it was saying that it was hungry!
This little fellow was also very useful!
It was inconvenient for humans to show up, but cats did not have such concerns.
She patted the pouch on her waist and took out a 200-year-old Vermilion Fruit.
Out of habit.
Purple Cat was just testing it out and didn’t have much hope. She didn’t expect that she would really get a reward. Her movements were extremely fast. She opened her mouth and swallowed the 200-year-old Vermilion Fruit. She had just broken through and her cultivation had improved again. She quickly refined it, allowing her cultivation to advance a little.
Footsteps sounded from outside. It was light and pleasant. The sound was like a crescent moon. The human and cat had a tacit understanding and took the initiative to shut their mouths.
Ji Xueyan sat on the chair and petted the cat. The door opened and Yue Ya came in. She Dlaced the bathtub on the floor and closed the door. She turned around
and said,”Miss, this servant will serve you in your bath.”
Ji Xueyan wanted to meet Zhang Ronghua and perfect her Haoran’s bones, so why would she let her get in the way here?
“No need! You can go and rest.”
“This…”
Seeing the young lady’s expression turn cold, Yue Ya swallowed the rest of her words. She bowed, retreated, and closed the door.
He stood up from his chair.
Ji Xueyan’s movements were very fast. She took off her clothes and put one of her legs into the bathtub. She squatted down and let the hot water cover her shoulders. She raised her arms and quickly moved them a few times. Then, she stood up and came out of the bathtub. She used her internal energy to disperse the water droplets on her body. She took out a set of clean clothes and put it on.
Then, she covered her face with a veil.
She walked to the window and looked at the night sky outside. There was still some time before dawn. She couldn’t wait for such a long time!
He pondered for a moment.
Under normal circumstances, his father would not look for him. Even if he had something to do, he would wait until tomorrow.
Yue Ya was the same. Unless he called her, without her orders, she would not dare to barge in.
Thinking of this…
She quickly walked outside and waved at the purple cat. The latter jumped and landed in her arms. She opened the door and closed it after she went out. Her jade-like hand stroked its purple fur and pretended to take a casual walk. She took the opportunity to sneak away.
After leaving the Grand Tutor Manor, he stood in a dark alley.
For some reason, Ji Xueyan’s calm heart felt very excited. She had never felt like this before. Her blood was boiling and circulating at a high speed.
This kind of thought was not good. She was afraid that something would happen, so she quickly dispelled it. She told herself that she only saw him to perfect the Haoran bone setting and had nothing to do with other things.
He repeated it three times before his burning heart finally calmed down.
He circulated his movement technique, leaving behind an afterimage as he rushed towards his mansion.
In the room.
Zhang Ronghua had already absorbed the medicinal strength of the nine spiritual herbs. His meridians had expanded, his body and soul had been strengthened, and his lifespan had increased by 50 years. The benefits he had obtained were even more than the first time. Even his cultivation had also advanced a step, breaking through to the third level of the heaven ascension realm. His Xuanhuang true essence had increased by five times again, and his foundation had become stronger.
The simplest thing was to absorb the same amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and refine it. The time needed to refine it would be reduced by more than half, not to mention the other benefits.
Looking at the impurities that were being discharged from his body, a thick stench wafted over. He shook his head helplessly.”l have to shower again.” He got off the bed, opened the door, and walked towards the Meditation Lake.
At this point.
He took off his clothes and jumped in.
In the mansion.
Ji Xueyan stopped in front of his room and knocked on the door.
Thump! Thump!
Three times in a row, it was quiet inside. No one answered.
Her brows straightened and her beautiful eyes rolled around. She looked at the purple cat suspiciously and met her eyes. The purple cat tilted its head as if it was wondering why there was no one around. He was the one who asked her to
come.
Jumping out of her arms, she pushed open the door and motioned for her to follow. After hesitating for a moment, Ji Xueyan gritted her teeth and pressed her tongue against her lips as she walked in.
Purple Cat had already walked around the room and there was nothing in the bedroom. When he returned to the living room, he gestured at her and called out, “Meow!”
It was as if he was telling her that he might have gone out for something and would be back soon. He wanted her to be patient and sit down.
Suddenly.
Outside the courtyard, there was a knock on the door. The door of the room not far away opened, and Uncle Shi came out from inside. Seeing this, Ji Xueyan was shocked. If outsiders saw a man and a woman alone in the same room in the middle of the night, how would they face others? Not even Uncle Shi.
She subconsciously wanted to stand up, but Purple Cat was faster than her. She left a purple afterimage on the spot and rushed over. She closed the door and stood behind it. She gestured at her twice, indicating that she did not have to worry. He might be back..
