Filthy Cultivation: I Pierced the Heavens with the Merit System

Bai Suifeng was just a wolf cub who had only lived for twelve years, and these questions were far beyond his comprehension.

Bai Suifeng felt that it couldn't be due to the contract, but he couldn't explain the reason. He could only attribute it to the fact that his sister was a younger member of the family.

Within the clan, protecting one's family with one's life is a perfectly normal thing to do.

But then again, how can you be a family member who has only known you for three months?

Am I too easily fooled?

His mind was in turmoil, but in the end he only pursed his lips and didn't answer directly. Instead, he avoided eye contact and changed the subject:

"I wasn't lying to the elders, everything I said is true!"

"Ok?"

Li Fuyao was slightly taken aback by his seemingly random question, but then immediately realized that he was referring to her earlier question about whether she could really hear it.

Sensing that the little guy was changing the subject, she chuckled softly and stopped pressing the matter, instead playing along politely:

"How to say?"

Bai Suifeng heard the laughter and looked down at Li Fuyao speechlessly, only to realize belatedly that because of his hasty lunge, he was now leaning on his sister.

When his eyes met those of Li Fuyao, who was lying quietly, his face instantly turned as red as a ripe tomato, and his lips moved but he could no longer speak.

With a sudden burst of ear tips and tail, Bai Suifeng was filled with shame and indignation because of the uncontrollable wagging of his tail, but he dared not get up for fear of hurting Li Fuyao.

In his haste, he could only feign composure and turn his face away, awkwardly stammering as he softly replied:

"Although the bloodline talent of us Moon Devouring Wolves is mainly devouring, there were unusual phenomena in the sky when I was born. The elders in the clan all said that my bloodline is special and is the purest bloodline in the clan. Therefore, I may awaken some special talents when I grow up."

"When I woke up from the illusion, I found that I could not only vaguely sense the movements of those mutated cultivators, but also faintly perceive the general thoughts of some filthy creatures."

I'm such a good boy!

Did I pick up a mutated version of a Disney princess and bring it home?

Li Fuyao, who had been trying to suppress her laughter, lost all interest in teasing him upon hearing this. She stared wide-eyed at Bai Suifeng's flushed profile, as if she were seeing him for the first time:

That's right. I always treated him like a little wolf cub or a brat, but I never paid attention to the fact that Bai Suifeng was a person who could become a holy son at birth in the Immortal Realm!

"To be able to do this level right after awakening, wouldn't your talent become even more amazing if you practiced more?!"

Li Fuyao swept aside the broken stones and slabs behind her little brother, and with a sit-up, she grabbed his shoulders and pushed Bai Suifeng off her. Her eyes shone as she looked at the little boy kneeling on her lap, and she said excitedly:

"If I take you with me when I'm exorcising evil spirits, wouldn't that be like having a living map that can read minds?!"

"Brother, you're amazing!"

Why am I the only one who's shy?

Why isn't my sister reacting at all? Is her skin made of a city wall?

Bai Suifeng couldn't find a trace of the same shyness in the girl's face and thoughts as he did. Feeling ashamed and annoyed, he couldn't help but curse himself for not being able to hide his emotions, while secretly grinding his teeth in a somewhat lonely and resentful mood.

However, the little wolf cub's emotions came and went quickly. Hearing Li Fuyao praise his abilities, Bai Suifeng soon cheered up again:

Hmph! Now Fuyao will realize how powerful she is!

I'm amazing, brother!

So Fuyao, you're not allowed to go anywhere without me!

Bai Suifeng, in a good mood, pursed his lips slightly, then tilted his head to look at Li Fuyao, asking in confusion:

What is Marauder's Map?

"Well, that's not important."

Li Fuyao cleared her throat, thinking of her system mission that was still counting down. She glanced at the large black pillar that had been poked out of the rotten altar with a thud but hadn't done anything afterward, and raised an eyebrow to discuss with Bai Suifeng:

"Brother? Why don't you go and have a talk with him?"

Bai Suifeng's face was still flushed. Knowing that his younger sister was still thinking about a mission that would cost her her life if she didn't complete it, he struggled to his feet, carefully retracting his tail and ears. Then he helped Li Fuyao up as well, whispering to her:

"We've already talked about it. He said he was sleeping soundly, but a little fly kept buzzing in his ear, keeping him from sleeping peacefully. That's when he got angry and wanted to kill the little fly."

"what?!"

Li Fuyao was shocked upon hearing this: "This thing really still wants to kill us, right!"

"Fuyao, don't be afraid, that's not what He thinks."

As Bai Suifeng pulled her towards the pillar, he explained to the elders who looked shocked and wanted to stop them:

"He said He just wanted to kill that noisy little bug and didn't mean to hurt us."

"As long as we don't attack Him first, He won't do anything to us, so the elders can rest assured."

Li Tianqing looked at Bai Suifeng with a complicated expression. Just as he was about to ask if he had been corrupted and started talking nonsense, he heard a muffled voice, as if coming from the abyss, respond a few times, seemingly praising Bai Suifeng for his accurate translation.

Seeing this, everyone present began to believe Bai Suifeng's words to some extent, and the female elder who had praised them earlier couldn't help but ask:

Did he tell us how to get out?

Upon hearing this, Bai Suifeng closed his eyes and stood still. His entire being, no, his entire soul, flickered in and out of existence as if it were being interfered with, making Li Fuyao extremely nervous. She tightened her grip on his hand even more.

“Yes, He said the reason we can’t go back is because He was woken up and had no strength, and his finger got stuck in this hole and he couldn’t pull it out.”

These words sounded as absurd coming from a drunkard.

As he spoke, Bai Suifeng couldn't help but smile.

Li Fuyao didn't laugh. She looked up at the massive black pillar, tens of meters high and as thick as five people could hug, and asked, her eyes wide, the question that everyone was thinking:

"You're saying this big black pillar is just one of the fingers of the one below?"

Bai Suifeng nodded obediently. Seeing everyone looking at him with expressions of despair, he cleared his throat, composed himself, and continued:

"He said that His finger contains laws related to space, and the illusionary space is also a form of space. If we want to return to reality, we need to help Him widen the area around that hole so that He can smoothly retract his finger. Only then can we..."

"No, this method is unacceptable!"

Zhao Xiuming, who had just woken up, shouted and sprang to his feet, glaring at Bai Suifeng and scolding:

"I just saw your tail and ears! You're not human at all, so what right do you have to spout such nonsense!"

"Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts, Elder!"

Seeing Li Fuyao shield Bai Suifeng behind her and stare coldly at him, Zhao Xiuming snorted and pointed at Bai Suifeng, accusing Li Tianqing and the others:

"Why are you glaring at me? Who knows if your brother is in cahoots with this thing down there!"
