The Demon Lord Relied on His Imagination to Get Together with the Protagonist. - Chapter 79

Chapter 79

Quechi Hall (The Hall of the Clear Pond).

The Demon Lord, transformed into a night cat, grandly followed the Immortal Saint Siqing of the Xianning Sect inside.

She had concealed her aura very well and was confident that the other party would not recognize her.

The Quechi Hall was vast. Although only the other party lived there, it took a long time for the person and the cat just to walk toward the sleeping quarters.

The Demon Lord followed the other party obsessively.

Everyone said that the Immortal Saint Siqing of the Xianning Sect had an exquisite and graceful immortal demeanor. Now it seems to be true. The Demon Lord was ecstatic, and her cat walk sped up.

The Siqing in front of her never looked back, seemingly not noticing her at all.

Even if the Demon Lord had ten million wits, she couldn’t have imagined that the other party would attack a little cat.

She was completely unguarded and accidentally followed the other party deep into the Quechi Hall. By the time she realized it, the other party had already locked the palace.

The Immortal Saint Siqing, who hadn’t looked back until now, finally revealed her true nature.

The Demon Lord: !!!

Could it be that the other party had been suspicious of me all along?

Then she deliberately pretended not to know, lured me deep into the Quechi Hall, and then secretly destroyed the evidence?

Although the Demon Lord was a cat now, she felt cold sweat dripping down her body.

Right. It was my own carelessness that led me into the other party’s trap.

The Demon Lord’s eyes turned deep red. She cautiously hid in a corner, constantly guarding against the other party harming her.

But this Immortal Saint Siqing didn’t immediately attack. First, she observed the Quechi Hall to ensure there was no one else, then she relaxed her steps and walked over.

The Demon Lord thought: Not good. Is she going to fight me?

“Little cat~” The Immortal Saint Siqing changed her usual dignified demeanor and became slightly more approachable. She half-squatted down, hooking her finger at the little cat in the corner. “I finally tricked you here. Once you’ve arrived at the Quechi Hall, you are my little cat.”

The black cat the Demon Lord had transformed into was originally half-crouching on its front legs, preparing to attack the other party. But upon hearing this, it instantly turned into a soft-footed cat and happily ran over to rub against the other party’s palm.

This is also a good opportunity to get close to the other party.

She thought.

The Immortal Saint Siqing seemed to genuinely like cats. She continuously scratched the cat’s delicate chin, then moved up from the chin to stroke its head.

The Demon Lord leaned against her, letting out a satisfied purr.

“Little cat, you don’t have a name, do you? How about I give you one?” The Immortal Saint Siqing simply picked up the other party, firmly holding and petting it in her arms, while talking to herself, “Your eyes are a beautiful red, your figure is elegant, and your fur is all black. I’ve never seen such a beautiful cat. How about… I call you Black Fur?”

The Demon Lord: ???

What kind of naming taste is that?

The Demon Lord felt insulted. She immediately turned hostile, biting down on the other party’s thumb webbing.

“Hiss…”

She bit down firmly, completely unsympathetic. The Immortal Saint Siqing also realized something was wrong and quickly patted the cat’s head to make it let go.

The Demon Lord condescended to release her bite and glared fiercely at the other party.

The Immortal Saint Siqing picked up the cat by the scruff of its neck: “How can there be such a disobedient little cat? I must properly teach you Xianning etiquette. Otherwise, if you are caught by others outside one day, you won’t avoid a good beating.”

The Demon Lord: ???

A cat, what are you going to teach her?

The Immortal Saint Siqing carried her to the study, quickly found the book recording Xianning rites and etiquette, and then was about to cast a spell to pour the contents into the cat’s ear.

The Demon Lord was greatly alarmed. Her four paws frantically scrambled in the air, trying to quickly avoid the spell.

I, the mighty Demon Lord, do not want my ears filled with the pedantic and old-fashioned rites and etiquette of the Xianning Sect.

“No resisting.” The Immortal Saint Siqing patted the cat’s butt, clamped its tail base with two fingers, and stroked down the slender tail to the tip, before saying again, “Disobedient little cats will be punished.”

Although the Demon Lord wasn’t a real cat, her original form was a black panther, which was roughly a big cat. It is likely that no cat likes others touching its tail.

Especially the base of the tail.

When the Immortal Saint Siqing clamped her tail with two fingers just now, the Demon Lord almost went limp on all four paws and turned into a cat-shaped pancake. This feeling was like someone suddenly pressing down on her inner thighs and slowly stroking downwards when she was in human form.

An unsettling, unbearable sensation instantly swept over her entire cat body.

The Demon Lord almost performed a live transformation back into a human.

She almost couldn’t hold back from turning into human form.

Meanwhile, the Immortal Saint Siqing was still stubbornly trying to pour those countless rules into her mind.

The Demon Lord was tormented and quite helpless. This Immortal Saint Siqing was completely different from the Tong Siqing in the Yu Yin Palace. The Tong Siqing in the Yu Yin Palace was charming and gentle, and tears would well up in her eyes if she spoke too quickly. As for the person in front of her—it would be good if she didn’t torment others into tears.

The Demon Lord finally believed why Tong Siqing said she and the Shi Zhihua outside were different.

They really are different. Even if their appearance was exactly the same, their personalities were vastly different.

“Aiya, don’t run, little cat.” This Immortal Saint Siqing, comparable to a living Yama, still wanted to see it through. Seeing the little cat try to escape, she even used a spell to fix the cat’s body, then went over, grabbed the cat’s tail, and dragged it back. “It will be done quickly. It doesn’t hurt. Don’t be afraid.”

The Demon Lord, in her black cat form, was almost trembling.

Too scary, this Siqing.

She doesn’t want to form a bond anymore.

When she was dragged by the spell just now, the Demon Lord was not without resistance, but she found that in her cat form, she couldn’t resist the other party at all.

The disparity in power was too great.

She really didn’t want to stay in the Quechi Hall anymore. She wanted to return to the Demon Realm. She wouldn’t covet this bit of beauty anymore.

It really wasn’t worth having her ears filled with the rules of the Xianning Sect just to get this person.

“Don’t move.” The Immortal Saint Siqing finally spoke coldly in front of the cat for the first time. She firmly pressed down on the black cat’s slender waist, pinning it down. “Quickly.”

Seeing that she was about to be forcibly indoctrinated with the Xianning Sect’s rules, the Demon Lord finally lost her patience. She turned her head and fiercely bit the back of the other party’s hand.

Two bloody holes instantly appeared on the back of the Immortal Saint Siqing’s hand, bleeding profusely.

The Demon Lord secretly rejoiced, staring fiercely at her.

The next second, the Immortal Saint Siqing also put away her tolerance for the cat and directly carried the cat to the courtyard.

Siqing: “You are disobedient. I will confine you.”

The Demon Lord thought: You brought me to the courtyard, what are you confining?

Just as she was feeling smug, the ground under her feet suddenly cracked open, forming a large fissure. She was placed into the fissure, only her head exposed. Then, the ground immediately closed up. She was truly and roughly confined in the soil.

The Demon Lord: “…”

“You little demon.” The Immortal Saint Siqing half-leaned down. Her pristine white dress contrasted sharply with the all-black cat. “I originally thought to spare your life since you came with me to the Quechi Hall, lest you be discovered during the day and lose your life. Who knew you would be so disobedient? If your heart truly cannot accommodate the Xianning rites and etiquette, this Saint cannot keep you, understand?”

The Demon Lord: !!!

So she found out I wasn’t an ordinary cat?

That’s impossible.

I have already completely concealed my demonic energy. Logically, anyone with a lower cultivation than mine shouldn’t be able to break my spell…

Could it be that…

This Immortal Saint of the Xianning Sect is actually comparable to me in cultivation?

As this thought emerged, the Demon Lord instantly felt a chilling gust of wind. She was completely unnerved. Her previous smugness and triumph completely vanished, leaving only a cat head that wanted to shed tears.

“You will reflect here tonight. Tomorrow, I will continue to pour the Xianning rites and etiquette into you. If you still refuse to learn…” The Immortal Saint Siqing gently stroked the little cat’s head, then spoke in a tone of consultation with her, “If you still resist, this Saint will use you as fertilizer for the flowers, okay?”

The Demon Lord shivered. As a black cat, her fur instantly bristled, and her eyes widened in shock.

What?

Is this the true face of the Immortal Saint of the Xianning Sect?

This is too terrifying. What happened to the rumored “Pinnacle of the Immortal Realm, Cautious, Serene, Generous, and Humble”?

The Demon Lord was restricted in her movements in the cold wind, yet she dared not remove the restriction in front of the other party. She could only wait, trembling, for the other party to leave.

Fortunately, the Immortal Saint Siqing didn’t really plan to stay up all night watching a cat.

She quickly went back to rest, leaving the Demon Lord to grieve in place.

Too difficult.

I shouldn’t have come.

The one in the Yu Yin Palace was much easier to get along with. This one takes action against me at the slightest disagreement. When she says she’s going to do something, there is no room for discussion.

They say even the most cold-hearted person is gentle and amusing toward little cats. That’s why the Demon Lord felt confident in following her in cat form. Who would have thought that even in the form of a cat, she would be treated like this?

The Demon Lord didn’t dare to imagine. If she dares to treat me like this while I’m still a little cat, if she ever discovers my true identity, I might be skinned alive.

This Xianning Sect is not a good place to stay.

Leave quickly.

The voice in her heart said so.

The night was very deep. In a few more hours, it would be dawn. The Demon Lord was conflicted. On one hand, she couldn’t bear to leave the beauty who was about to form a bond with her, and on the other, she was considering her own safety.

And at this moment, an uninvited guest suddenly arrived at the Quechi Hall.

Who is it?

The Demon Lord, as a cat, cautiously pricked up her ears, looking ahead—

Not far ahead, there was a woman wearing short red armor.

That short armor… it looked exactly like my favorite set.

The Demon Lord looked closely again and was suddenly stunned.

—That person was me, with exactly the same appearance as me.

Could it be the “Shi Zhihua” that Tong Siqing spoke of?

All of this was not made up. It actually exists!

Then, recalling Sheng Wen saying that someone from the outside had arrived, it very likely referred to the Shi Zhihua from outside the Mirage Domain.

When the Demon Lord thought of this, a basin of cold water was poured over her heart, chilling her to the core.

I am indeed not real. I am just an illusion.

This feeling is truly unbearable.

The Demon Lord felt somewhat lonely. Coupled with half her body being buried in the dirt, the feeling intensified. She completely demeaned herself in her heart, feeling that everything was meaningless.

What was the point of me being this Demon Lord?

What did I even care about?

The only beauty I wanted, I couldn’t even manage to seduce and was instead buried in the dirt by her. I had nowhere to vent my grievances. The excitement I had been suppressing all night had long been extinguished. The mighty Demon Lord was reduced to this. What was there left to hope for?

The Demon Lord was now a depressed cat. She lowered her cat head to the ground, wishing she could bury herself in the dirt and suffocate.

And at this moment, she suddenly heard a slight movement from the sleeping quarters ahead. After a few hurried words, that Shi Zhihua pulled the Immortal Saint Siqing who belonged to her out.

The Immortal Saint Siqing looked bewildered, clearly not knowing what had happened.

“Who are you? Why are you taking me away?” The Immortal Saint Siqing frowned and asked Shi Zhihua. “Are you the outsider my Father Venerable spoke of?”

Shi Zhihua didn’t have time to explain so much to the other party.

To find Tong Siqing, she had searched in the Mirage Domain for a long time. She knew that people trapped in the Mirage Domain could easily forget their true identity and purpose. After being trapped for a while, they might not want to leave and would then become a part of the Mirage Domain.

Shi Zhihua naturally couldn’t allow this to happen, but looking at the Siqing in front of her, she felt that the other party had likely forgotten everything outside the Mirage Domain.

How careless.

The night was deep. Neither of them could see the other’s eyes, so they had to make do with talking.

“There’s no time to explain, Siqing. Come with me quickly,” Shi Zhihua said. “Once we’re out, this Venerable One will help you remember.”

“Who are you, and why do you call yourself ‘this Venerable One’?” The Immortal Saint Siqing inside the Mirage Domain retreated a few feet away, fully on guard. “Why are you taking me away? I belong to the Xianning Sect and will not leave this place.”

“This is the Mirage Domain. I am your lover,” Shi Zhihua said. “Do you believe me now?”

The Immortal Saint Siqing: ???

I have never left the Xianning Sect since birth. Where did I get a lover?
