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

In the deepest part of the Emperor's Palace, there is an ancient and mysterious building hidden - Wanbao Pavilion.

Not only does this place hide the most precious treasures in the world, it is also a holy place for the Emperor to practice in seclusion and teach skills.

One day, the tranquility of Wanbao Pavilion was broken by a burst of hurried footsteps, and a little cat demon with colorful fur came.

Xu Wan was looking around this place which was both unfamiliar and full of temptation to her with her eyes that were flashing with cunning light.

"Hmph, don't think you can rest easy just because you're my disciple."

Xu Wan thought to herself, a smile of unwillingness to admit defeat appearing on the corner of her mouth.

She was originally a wild cat in the mountains. By chance, with her unyielding will and a bit of cunning, she persuaded the Emperor to make an exception and accept her as his disciple.

But it is easy to get started but difficult to practice. The road to becoming an immortal is undoubtedly long and difficult for her, a fledgling cat demon.

"Now that you have become my disciple, you must start from the beginning."

The Emperor's voice was as cold as ice, yet it revealed unquestionable majesty.

He waved his hand casually, and the oldest volume on the bookshelf fell in front of Xu Wan.

"Analysis of Basic Spiritual Texts", the handwriting on the cover is simple and profound, as if it contains endless knowledge and wisdom.

"This is your first step, learning to read and write."

The Emperor spoke briefly and turned to leave, but then seemed to remember something and added, "I will personally supervise you. If you slack off, you will bear the consequences."

Xu Wan widened her eyes and looked at the densely packed text. Although she felt fear in her heart, it also aroused her fighting spirit.

She carefully turned the pages of the book. Each word seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, but she gritted her teeth and read word by word, trying to understand the words that were like incomprehensible to her.

"Reading alone is not enough, you also need to practice writing." The Emperor's voice sounded again, and he handed Xu Wan a brush that looked ordinary but actually contained spiritual power, and a piece of rice paper.

"The handwriting reflects the character of the writer, and spiritual practice is also about cultivating the mind. You need to calm your mind and concentrate before you can control the pen and ink." Although the Emperor's words were cold, they revealed a subtle concern.

Xu Wan took the brush, feeling both excited and nervous.

She tried to follow the Emperor's instructions, concentrating her mind on the pen and writing stroke by stroke.

At first, her handwriting was crooked and looked like a worm crawling, but she was not discouraged. Instead, she practiced more attentively.

As time went by, her handwriting gradually became neat and powerful, as if every stroke contained her thoughts and persistence.

“After learning to read and write, the next step is to collect herbs.”

The Emperor's voice sounded again, and he took Xu Wan out of the Wanbao Pavilion and came to the medicinal field in the mountain behind the palace.

“This is the medicinal field that I have carefully cultivated. Every herb contains the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

You need to learn to identify them, understand their medicinal properties, and pick them yourself." Emperor Zun said as he pointed to the colorful herbs in front of him and explained them to Xu Wan.

Xu Wan widened her eyes and looked curiously at these herbs she had never seen before.

She followed Emperor's instructions and carefully picked each herb, fearing that she would damage them.

During the picking process, she not only learned how to identify herbs, but also experienced the magic and greatness of nature.

"Remember, the path to immortality isn't always smooth. You need to keep learning and practicing to gradually understand the mysteries."

The Emperor's words echoed in Xu Wan's ears, inspiring her to keep moving forward.

As time went by, Xu Wan gradually grew up under the strict teaching of Emperor Zun.

Not only did she learn to read, write and paint, she also mastered the art of collecting herbs, becoming a little herbalist.

She knew that she still had a long way to go before she could truly become an immortal, but she was ready to meet the challenges of the future with her wisdom and courage.
