The useless second daughter of the Hua family

After Wangchao separated from Yuyao that day, he had lost a lot of spiritual energy and his true form was revealed. Fortunately, he fell into a jungle and was shielded by leaves, so he was not turned into a dried fish.

He tried to move his body, trying to find a moist spot as much as possible.

A pair of warm hands picked him up, and his survival instinct made him struggle continuously. He tried to strangle the other person with his tentacles.

But his weak strength caused the other party to misunderstand him, and the man chuckled, "Little guy, you are quite good at acting like a spoiled child."

What the hell is this! Wang Chao stared at her with all his might, his big, watery, sparkling eyes making her even happier.

"You seem to be quite intelligent. I am a kind-hearted sister, so I will adopt you reluctantly."

"..."

Wang Chao was so angry that he wanted to curse, but he couldn't speak now and could only twist his body.

Ji Hanyan just thought it was having too much fun and was playing with her, so she held this unknown little monster in her arms and went to reunite with her fellow junior brothers and sisters.

Wang Chao struggled in vain and collapsed exhausted in Ji Hanyan's hands, until he was placed in a porcelain basin filled with water. A feeling of suffocation made him struggle again.

Is this woman crazy and trying to kill him? Is he the first octopus to drown?

"Sister, it seems to be dying."

"No way, I think it's quite energetic."

“But it rolled its eyes.”

"..."

"..."

Wang Chao felt that the noisy voices outside were getting farther and farther away from him, until he finally heard someone say, "I saw this thing when I was a child. It's from the sea and can't be kept in fresh water."

Ji Hanyan heard this and hurriedly fished Wangchao out. This place is far from the sea, but fortunately, Cangcui Mountain has abundant supplies. Although sea salt is precious, there is still some.

After going through so much hardship, Wang Chao can finally take a nice bath.

Seeing that Wangchao had finally calmed down, Ji Hanyan watched over it with a feeling of guilt and relief.

"I even boasted that I would adopt you, but I almost killed you just now. You won't be angry with me, right?"

Wangchao couldn't bear to see her depressed look, so he stretched out one of his tentacles and gently placed it on Ji Hanyan's hand.

"Are you trying to comfort me? You can really understand me, right?"

Seeing her as excited as a child, Wang Chao retracted his arms and legs with some disdain. For some reason, this girl always reminded him of Hua Yao back then. Never mind, he was hundreds of years older than her, so he could just treat it as coaxing a child.

Ji Hanyan loves her new pet very much and does everything herself without asking anyone else to do it for her.

When she returned to the mountain, in order to avoid being seen, Ji Hanyan specially created a space to keep Wangchao Run in it, and took it with her wherever she went. She took it with her when she ate, when she fought monsters, and even when she bathed, she placed Wangchao in a jade cup beside her and poked him with her fingers from time to time.

Wang Chao was made extremely embarrassed by her. He tried to climb out by climbing over the edge of the cup several times, but was pushed back by Ji Hanyan every time.

Ji Hanyan held the jade cup and looked at him, seeming to see shyness in its big round eyes.

"You're not shy, are you? You're so shy, you must be a cute girl."

Looking at the dampness, there is nothing I can do.

"It would be nice if you could just talk to me."

Ji Hanyan suddenly said with a bit of loneliness. She was a disciple of a famous master and was well-liked by the people around her. As the chief disciple of the head of Cang Cui Mountain, she was an outstanding disciple in the eyes of the teachers and a role model that the younger brothers and sisters could rely on. But after all, she was just a girl in her teens, and there was no one around her to confide in.

Since this idea came to her mind, Ji Hanyan worked harder during her training. She used all the spiritual herbs she collected from the secret realm and the elixirs rewarded by her master on Wang Chao.

Wang Chao had been fed fat by Ji Hanyan, and now when he saw her excitedly taking something out of her arms, he felt scared.

"Little guy, have you gained weight?"

Yes, it holds up.

"Are you going to grow up?"

It's not growing, it's swelling.

Unfortunately, Ji Hanyan couldn’t hear Wang Chao’s inner complaints. She was only thinking that her “intimate little sister” was getting closer and closer to her.

Wangchao felt that he couldn't go on like this, he had to escape, otherwise he would become the first joke in the demon world to be killed by spiritual energy.

The opportunity soon came, and Ji Hanyan took him out again.

This time was different from the past. Ji Hanyan did not plan to bring Wangchao with her, but placed it in a hidden cave. She gently put Wangchao into the water, and even hooked its little feet with her fingers.

"I specially prepared this pool of salt water, and added some spiritual medicines that can help you practice. I also prepared a lot of food for you, which I put in the cold jade box."

"Little guy, I'm leaving. This time I'm going to Lishan Mountain. I heard that the Lielong Grass in the mountain has the miraculous effect of rejuvenating and maintaining youth. Master will definitely like it. But the guardian beasts in the mountain seem to be particularly ferocious. I'm not sure I can win this time. If I'm okay, I will definitely come back to pick you up."

"I was thinking of giving you a name after you transform. Wait for me to come back, and I will definitely give you a nice name, okay?"

Ji Hanyan's master Yuan He is a man who has a deep obsession with immortality. He has spent his entire life learning and seeking to be like his master, the previous generation's head.

The previous generation leader of the sect was a legend in the Xuanmen sect. It was said that he had a connection with an immortal, met an important figure, and received some guidance. His age remained a mystery. Until his death, he still had white hair and a youthful face, making it impossible to guess his age.

Yuan He's birthday is coming up, but he doesn't want people to mention his age, so he stays indoors on this day every year. Recently, Yuan He has found some new method, often locking himself in the alchemy room for three to five days, then going out and coming back to continue.

Ji Hanyan knew what was bothering her master, so when she heard about the Lielung Grass, she decided to get it for her master.

After Ji Hanyan left, Wangchao stayed in the pool alone. It was finally quiet.

However, the surroundings were too quiet, and he was a little uncomfortable. He had been trapped in the barrier for hundreds of years, and now, in just a few months, he felt lonely.

Ji Hanyan, that stupid woman! Wang Chao transformed into a human form and lay by the pool, chewing the fresh fruit she left behind, and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Yes, he has recovered. He just keeps pretending because he doesn't want to embarrass each other.

When he thought about what he had experienced in the past few days, he felt so embarrassed that he wished he could crawl into the ground.

That idiot, she threw herself into fresh water and nearly drowned, and she stuffed herself with so many spiritual herbs that she almost ate to death. She even claimed to be her own master and tried to give him a name.

"No! I have to tell her that I have my own name."

As if he had finally found a reason, Wang Chao left the water and quickly followed Ji Hanyan's breath.

On top of Lishan Mountain, Ji Hanyan fell to the ground seriously injured. She didn't expect to see the legendary tiger-eating beast here.

Between life and death, a child of six or seven years old stood in front of her.

"Are you still alive?" the child asked without turning his head.

"who are you?"

The child didn't answer.

"Forget it, no matter who you are, just go away. This matter has nothing to do with you."

"Shut up! Save your energy."

Wangchao was on full alert, ready to fight at any time, but the tiger-eating beast seemed to have no intention of being hostile to him. It just raised its head behind him and said, "She took my things."

Wangchao turned around and saw Ji Hanyan guarding her clothes tightly, thinking that the Lielung Grass might have been taken.

"Give it back to them."

"I do not want."

Wang Chao was almost pissed off by her. Didn't this woman understand the situation? She was almost dead, and the other party was clearly trying to make peace, so why was she still being so stubborn?

"It's not impossible to give it to her."

The tiger-eating beast suddenly spoke, with a gleam in its eyes, and approached Wangchao step by step.

“I’ve found something more interesting now.”

"Me?" Wangchao pointed at himself uncertainly.

"Yes, I know who you are, we are from the same place."

"what?"

Before Wangchao understood what it meant, he felt a sharp pain in his chest.

The tiger-eating beast raised its head and swallowed the still beating heart.

In the dim light, its body slowly stretched and gradually took on a human form.

Wang Chao fell to the ground weakly, and Ji Hanyan held him in her arms with a bewildered look on her face. It all happened so fast that she didn't have time to regret it.

"Don't come here!"

Seeing the man transformed from a tiger-eating beast trying to come over, Ji Hanyan yelled hysterically.

"I just want to help him heal."

"If the heart is gone, what's the use?"

"He already has three hearts. I will take one of his hearts. He won't die." The tiger-eating beast explained while casting a spell to heal Wangchao's wound.

Ji Hanyan showed a hint of sarcasm, "Should I thank you for your kindness?"

"Everything has a price, doesn't it?"

Ji Hanyan was speechless. It was true that she had taken the other person's things, but why was a strange child injured?

Her tears fell on Wangchao's face and flowed into his mouth.

"So salty." Wang Chao opened his eyes slightly and looked at Ji Hanyan whose face was covered with tears.

"I have my own name, my name is Wangchao. This time, don't put me in fresh water again."

Ji Hanyan watched the child in her arms slowly become transparent, shrink, and finally become only the size of a palm.

She held Wangchao, who had turned back into his original form, and cried heart-wrenchingly.
