C12 Whiteboard

The next day, after breakfast, the Snow Qilin was extremely bored.

She climbed up a large tree in the courtyard of the Morning Snow Tower and sat down on a relatively thick branch. She leaned against the tree trunk and planned to go back to sleep.

After yawning, the Xue Qilin closed its eyes leisurely.

The cold winter wind blew from time to time, but she didn't seem to feel anything. Martial artists had True Qi to protect their bodies, so they didn't need to be afraid of the cold at all. Of course, there was a 'speed', and this' speed 'was directly proportional to one's cultivation.

When her consciousness started to fade...

"- Whiteboard?"

A gentle voice came out of nowhere, causing the Snow Qilin's consciousness to condense. It was a voice that she was familiar with.

The moment the Xue Qilin opened its eyes, it saw a white figure pouncing towards it.

What was that? She instinctively caught it with her hands and looked at it with a puzzled expression.

It was a very small and furry creature. Its eyes were filled with spirit energy as it stared at the Xue Qilin.

It had the body of a cat, and its claws were like that of a cat.

What is this? The Snow Qilin looked at her from left to right, and it felt that she was a cat, but reason told her that she wasn't. How could a cat have two tails?

"Blackboard?"

The grass at the side suddenly rustled, and the sound of rustling could be heard again. The Snow Qilin maintained its posture of holding the white cat up high and looked towards the source of the sound. Then, a green figure jumped out of the grass.

"Xiao Qing?"

The Xue Qilin looked at the slightly embarrassed Lo Qing in surprise and called out reflexively.

Lo Qing, who was covered in leaves and trees, was slightly startled. She looked at the Snow Qilin in a daze.

"Young Martial Ancestor? Why are you here?"

"I'm sleeping."

At that moment, Lo Qing's gaze fell on the white cat in Xue Qilin's hand and he shouted in pleasant surprise:

"Whiteboard!"

The moment the white cat in his hand heard Lo Qing's shout, it twisted its body in shock and tried to escape, but the Snow Qilin didn't let it go.

"A whiteboard? Little Qing, are you looking for this cat?"

The Snow Qilin held the neck of the "white cat" and extended it out of the tree.

The moment the white cat's eyes met Lo Qing's, the Xue Qilin clearly felt its entire body tremble and its fur stood up. It turned its head around stiffly and looked at the Snow Qilin with a look of anticipation.

Was this cat very afraid of Lo Qing? The Xue Qilin was surprised.

"Bai, whiteboard! Little Martial Ancestor, you... you have to be careful. Don't let go of me!"

Lo Qing's eyes never left the white cat's body as he paced around under the tree in panic.

"Don't worry, I won't let go."

The Snow Qilin had no interest in bullying animals.

Speaking of which, was this cat really called a whiteboard? Was it a name given by that expert?

"Achoo!"

The Snow Qilin suddenly sneezed loudly and reflexively let go of the hand that was holding the whiteboard.

Sh * t! She immediately felt that something was amiss and quickly looked for the white cat's figure.

The whiteboard adjusted its posture in the air and landed gracefully on its four limbs. It seemed to be at ease, and it did not seem like it was falling from a height of four meters.

The moment it landed, it agilely dodged Lo Qing's pounce.

"Ah!"

Lo Qing screamed and fell flat on his face.

It turned out that Lo Qing had such a side to him. The Snow Qilin's eyes were so wide open that they were about to fall out.

"Blackboard!"

Lo Qing raised her head and called the white cat that was running far away. She quickly got up and chased after the white cat without caring if there was dirt on her face.

At this moment, the Snow Qilin finally came back to its senses. She put her two fingers together and drew a circle out of thin air.

"Bring!"

It was just a simple word and the white cat froze, as if it had been nailed down by a nail. It turned its head in fear and the Snow Qilin grinned at it.

"Whiteboard, don't run!"

Finally, Lo Qing grabbed the white board and held it in front of his chest. The white board seemed to have given up and its four limbs drooped down powerlessly. However, its eyes were filled with resentment as it looked at Xue Qilin.

"Hey!"

The Snow Qilin jumped down and landed lightly on the ground. She bent her feet slightly to deflect the impact of falling from the sky.

"Little Qing, is this your cat?" The Snow Qilin slowly walked in front of Lo Qing and asked curiously, "Why do you have two tails?"

"No!" Lo Qing blinked his eyes and shook his head in denial, "This is the Martial Demon of the Palace Lord, the Sky Cat Whiteboard."

"Martial Demon? What is that?"

The unheard-of term made Xue Qilin tilt its head in confusion.

"Young Martial Ancestor, don't you know?" Lo Qing seemed very surprised as his eyes widened.

"Yes, I've never heard of it. Can it be eaten?"

"Of course I can't eat it. The Martial Demon is a strange beast that can practice martial arts."

"Are you sure it's not a demonic beast?" Xue Qilin asked in a strange tone.

"Beast beast... I've never heard of it."

The corner of Xue Qilin's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

This Martial Demon was most likely a rare beast similar to the ones in his original world. However, the demonic beasts used magic, while the Martial Demon practiced martial arts.

"Little Qing, in fact, you guys are cultivators, right?"

Lo Qing slightly tilted his head and looked at Xue Qilin with a puzzled expression.

'What kind of world is this?!'

At that moment, the Xue Qilin was thinking about whether or not it should find a way to go back.

'Forget it, I won't think about it anymore.' In order to get rid of its worries, the Xue Qilin shook its head.

"Xiao Qing, do you really like cats?"

Lo Qing teased the whiteboard with a happy smile on his face. Xue Qilin asked out of the blue.

"Yes, I like it."

Lo Qing revealed a huge smile as if he really liked cats a lot.

So she actually had such a face! Xue Qilin's consciousness suddenly drifted away.

- "Uncle, look! There's a cat here!"

She thought of her niece. Her niece also liked cats very much, and there were even a few stray cats that she had picked up at home.

Xue Qilin still remembered that one time, the cat she raised died from an illness. She cried for three whole days.

However, it seemed like they wouldn't be able to see each other again. Xue Qilin smiled sadly.

..."What's wrong with you, little ancestor?"

The worried voice made the Xue Qilin come back to its senses.

"Ah...It's fine. I was just thinking about the past."

"No, you're missing someone," Lo Qing said with certainty.

How did she know? The Xue Qilin was slightly stunned.

"Is it my family?"

"Yes."

The Snow Qilin looked up at the sky and sighed.

After a moment of hesitation, Lo Qing asked tentatively,

"Young Ancestor, your family... is no longer here?"

Dead? That was probably the meaning of the word "not being around."

Although Xue Qilin's niece was still alive and well, she still acknowledged it.

If they couldn't see each other again, then what difference was there between life and death?

"Young Martial Ancestor, you still have us."

The Xue Qilin looked at Lo Qing in shock.

The beam of sunlight that flowed out from the gaps between the leaves fell on Lo Qing's face, lighting up the smile on her face. A smile that penetrated the heart was filled with radiant tenderness.

A gentle wind blew, messing up the two people's hair, but it could not blow away the sincerity in Lo Qing's eyes.

If his mother was still in the world, she would definitely look out for him with this kind of gentleness and smile.

"I don't know how you view a sect, but in my eyes, a sect is a family. So if you want to, you can treat us as family!"

There was a kind of warmth in his heart. It was very weak, but it existed.

Family... Xue Qilin was slightly absent-minded.

It was as if a baby had just fallen to the ground and the first person he would see would definitely be his own family.

Was the first person she saw when she first came to this world all by herself the next time she saw someone close to her?

Qi Qiqi, Ye Zhen, Lo Qing - as well as all the elders of the Heavenly Jade Palace.

Perhaps, Xue Qilin sighed and said,

"Yeah, and the rest of you..."

She only had them. At least for now.

Lo Qing happily nodded. There was a bright smile on his face.

"That's right, Little Martial Ancestor. Why are you sleeping on the tree so early?"

As if he suddenly thought of something, Lo Qing changed the topic.

"Is that so? Is it early?"

Lo Qing looked at the sun that had not climbed to the middle of the sky and nodded without hesitation.

"Isn't this boring?" Xue Qilin shrugged helplessly and said, "At first, I wanted to go out for a walk, but once I got out of the courtyard, I didn't know the way."

Although Xue Qilin didn't have a poor sense of direction, the Heavenly Jade Palace was too big. Instead of saying that it didn't know the way, it would be more accurate to say that it didn't know where to start.

"Hmm? Little Martial Ancestor, do you want to visit the Heavenly Jade Palace?"

"Something like that."

She just wanted to look around out of boredom, which was far from being able to visit.

"If you don't mind, I can lead the way for you, Little Martial Ancestor."

"Oh, oh. Why would I mind? Are you free?"

Xue Qilin guessed that Lo Qing was an elder after all. He should be quite busy.

"My position as the Seventh Elder is quite idle," Lo Qing teased mischievously.

"Eh, is that so?" The Snow Qilin put its hands on its hips and stuck out its chest. It pretended to be arrogant and said, "Then I'll give you a chance to lead the way for me."

Lo Qing couldn't help but purse his lips and smile. As if he was infected by it, the Snow Qilin also smiled.

Only the white board dejectedly meowed and sang a different tune.
