The cat demon defies the heavens and is the emperor’s only beloved disciple!

Xu Wan slowly opened her eyes, and her emerald green eyes were like two dazzling emeralds, sparkling with a smart and deep light.

She stood up gracefully, her figure as graceful as a blooming white lotus.

When she saw Jiuyang and Bai Yuan looking at her with admiring eyes, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

She walked to Jiuyang, bowed slightly, and said in a soft and clear voice: "Thank you, Master, for bringing Jinglian to this peak realm.

The spiritual energy here is rich, it is indeed a good place for cultivation."

Upon hearing this, Jiuyang nodded with satisfaction, a pleased smile on his face: "Jinglian knows how to utilize resources, not bad."

Xu Wan blinked and playfully responded, "Of course. Otherwise, would I just stand here and watch the scenery?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Jiuyang burst into laughter and praised her wit and intelligence.

Xu Wan realized that she had said something wrong and quickly covered her mouth with an apologetic look on her face.

Then, he bowed and said, "Master, Jinglian made a mistake, please forgive me."

Seeing this, Jiuyang waved his hand magnanimously: "It's okay, your master won't bother with you."

At this moment, Bai Yuan took a step forward and looked deeply into Xu Wan's emerald eyes, feeling an inexplicable throbbing in his heart.

He immediately bowed his head and said to Xu Wan, "Congratulations, Junior Brother, on your successful cultivation and greatly increased strength."

Then, he took out an exquisite hairpin from his sleeve and handed it to Xu Wan with both hands, a sincere smile on his face: "Junior brother, please keep it."

Xu Wan took the hairpin and danced her fingers gently in her hair.

In the blink of an eye, the waterfall-like white hair was cleverly tied into a bun with a hairpin. The technique was skillful and elegant, which was breathtaking.

The pearls on the hairpin sparkled in the sunlight, complementing Xu Wan's emerald green eyes, adding a touch of fairy spirit and agility.

Xu Wan glanced sideways inadvertently and saw the seven white cat tails swaying behind her, like feathers swaying in the wind, beautiful and mysterious.

She wondered to herself how long it would take for her to fully recover her human form.

But at this moment, her face, after being baptized by cultivation, looked more and more beautiful and refined, and her mood became extremely cheerful.

She turned to look at Jiuyang, her eyes gleaming with sincerity, and suggested softly: "Master, the training environment here is so excellent,

How about you and your brother stay here and practice for a while? I'll be there to watch over you."

Jiuyang looked at Bai Yuan beside him, and with unquestionable majesty in his tone, he ordered: "Bai Yuan, sit down and practice for a while.

But before practicing, recite the Calming Heart Technique a hundred times to clear your mind of distracting thoughts."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yuan's face became solemn. He bowed respectfully and replied, "Disciple, I obey your command."

After saying this, he stretched out his body, strode to the Bagua platform, and sat down steadily.

After sitting down, he took a deep breath and gently placed the whisk in his hand on the robe between his knees.

Then, Bai Yuan gently rolled up his sleeves, revealing his not-so-white wrists.

A string of white jade beads was wrapped around the wrist, each bead was round and smooth, exuding an ancient atmosphere.

He carefully untied the rosary and held it in his hand, then closed his eyes and became extremely focused.

His fingers plucked the beads nimbly, and each bead seemed to dance between his fingers.

At the same time, he began to recite the meditation techniques. His voice was low and rhythmic, like the sound of nature, which made people feel relaxed and happy.

Xu Wan stood quietly by, listening to Bai Yuan chanting.

In the past two days, Senior Brother Bai Yuan has been staying by her side, silently reciting the meditation techniques for her to help her calm her inner turmoil.

At this time, at the request of his master, he finally recited the Calming Technique aloud.

The voice was like a clear spring, slowly flowing into Xu Wan's heart, gradually calming her mood.

On the ancient Bagua platform, those mysterious characters seemed to contain some ancient power, emitting a faint light, making the entire platform look like a dream.

Bai Yuan sat upright in the center of the platform, cross-legged with a solemn and dignified expression, holding a string of white jade beads tightly in his hand.

He was following the orders of his master Jiuyang and was reciting the Tranquility Mantra devoutly. The mantra flowed from his mouth like a gurgling stream, echoing on the platform.

While chanting the mantra, he tried to remove the distracting thoughts in his heart and make his mind as pure as water so that he could better understand the true meaning of cultivation.

As the spell echoed, his expression became increasingly peaceful, as if he had become one with the world.

When he raised his head, Xu Wan's gaze involuntarily turned to the sky.

At this time, the sun sets and the sky is filled with brilliant sunset glow, like a dreamlike painting, so beautiful that it makes people intoxicated.

Looking at this picturesque scenery, Xu Wan's thoughts couldn't help but drift away.

She thought of her master Yun Che. Once, Yun Che stood in front of the window, holding a delicate teacup, staring at the sunset quietly.

He murmured softly, "The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it is near dusk."

At this moment, Xu Wan's heart was filled with longing for Yun Che.

She thought secretly,

Master, are you okay now?

Are you practicing day and night again, forgetting the prosperity and troubles of the world?

Master, do you know?

I cultivated my seventh cat tail today, bringing me one step closer to my goal of becoming a cat god.

You once told me that when I became a god, you would marry me.

This promise is like a bright star, illuminating my way forward.

I will continue to work hard to cultivate and strive to become the Cat God as soon as possible so that I can spend the rest of my life with you.

True Man Jiuyang looked towards Xu Wan, and saw that she was looking up at the sky with an intoxicated expression on her face, as if she was attracted by the boundless horizon.

Jiuyang Zhenren shook his head helplessly and spoke slowly, his voice carrying a hint of majesty: "Jinglian, you also sit down and recite the Jingxin Jue a hundred times."

Xu Wan suddenly came back to her senses, her eyes widened, and she looked at Jiuyang in surprise, her mouth opening into an "O" shape: "Ah, Master, I want to recite too?"

She was filled with reluctance, so she began to look for excuses, with a look of embarrassment on her face: "Master...

I've only been at the Taoist sect for two days, and I haven't even memorized the meditation mantra yet. How about... I just stop reciting it?"

Upon hearing this, Master Jiuyang frowned, and a look of displeasure appeared on his face.

He sternly rebuked, "It's been two days, and you still haven't memorized the Tranquility Technique? Punishment! Kneel down!"

Xu Wan was shocked when she heard this and immediately knelt on the ground.

His eyes were filled with innocence and pleading: "Master, please spare my life. Isn't it enough for me to recite?"

True Man Jiuyang stared fiercely at Xu Wan who was kneeling at his feet.

I thought to myself: These days, apprentices are trying to play tricks on their masters.

His resounding voice rang out again: "Stand up and hold out your left hand!"

Xu Wan thought to herself, "Oh no! Master is going to hit someone!"

She stood up tremblingly and stretched out her left hand, which was still shaking slightly.

Suddenly, a ruler appeared in the hands of Master Jiuyang.

As soon as Xu Wan saw the ruler, a shadow appeared in her heart.

During the six-month probation period after entering Lingshan, she was often beaten with a ruler by Xingze.

At this moment, True Man Jiuyang hit Xu Wan's hand with a ruler without hesitation, causing her to grit her teeth in pain.

And Bai Yuan, who was sitting in the center of the Bagua platform, holding a rosary and chanting a meditation mantra,

Although he felt extremely distressed for Xu Wan, he could only bear it and continue counting his beads and reciting the meditation techniques to calm his inner turmoil.
