The next day Ye Jingxing woke up and found that he had a cat on his lap.

He has always had a good relationship with cats, and with catnip physique, it is not surprising.

This little black cat is only the size of a palm. It looks like it has short legs and long hair. It is very fluffy. It curls up on his lap and sleeps like a small briquettes.

There were two small pieces of meat on both sides of the kitten’s body, Ye Jingxing thought it was its claws at first, but when he touched it, he found that it was not.

There are many monster races, but most of them are short-lived and unable to cultivate. Many of them were abandoned by their parents when they were young, eight of the ten would end up in these situations, nine were to die in the wilderness.

To put it bluntly, it is what modern people call genetic defects or mutations, which are easy to eliminate.

Ye Jingxing didn’t know the origin of the kitten, he probably guessed that he was abandoned because of deformity, and it rained so much last night, so he came here to hide from the rain.

After all, this is the place where the Three Realms meet, so it is not surprising that any race appears.

The kitten was awakened by him, squinting golden eyes and looking at him, and the small appearance with its head tilted is very cute.

Ye Jingxing, who was a cat slave, immediately adored him.

After he came to this world, he always wanted to raise a kitten, but the Ye family would not allow him to lose face. If he brought a kitten home today, he might be beaten to death by those old stubborn people tomorrow.

After all, most cultivators will sign contracts with monsters of similar strength. He was originally a waste, and if he brought back an ordinary cat that only meows, that will not only tell the whole world that-

He is the young master of the Ye family and that he’s a waste, a big waste, a complete waste, and even the lowest level of spiritual beasts can’t sign.

The Ye family of the first family can’t afford to lose this face.

But now he’s not at Ye’s house.

The sky is high and the emperor is far away.

He could…have his own kitty.

Ye Jingxing reached out and scratched the kitten’s chin, his eyes were bright: “If you have nowhere to go, you can follow me and I will take care of you.” 

If nothing else, at least the catnip is full.

The little black cat was stunned for a second, then readily agreed, gave a coquettish snort. It looked his fingers lightly with his fluffy little tail, and arched into his arms coquettishly, and then… took a big mouthful…

The taste of this human… 

It’s damn good.

Ye Jingxing just thought it was agreeing, and rubbed its fur happily.

The little black cat also sucked in his arms.

One person and one cat were a bit flirtatious.

After being refreshed, Ye Jingxing had to get up and go to work, the rain had stopped, he had to investigate the situation here.

Whether to stay or run away with the one thousand taels his father gave him, he has to wait for the investigation before making a decision.

﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏

After all, this is the fortress of the Three Realms, and it was deliberately confused with other icons on the map. There must be something in the middle.

Ye Jingxing got up and put away the mint umbrella and put the kitten on the ground. The kitten walked two steps with hands and feet, and fell directly. The little head hit the ground and ate a mouthful of sand.

Cat: “…”

I lost my face and lost my hair.

After sleeping for so long, I can’t even walk.

Seeing this, Ye Jingxing hurriedly picked up the cat, wiped off the dirt on his body and stuffed it into the placket, feeling amused and distressed.

Such a small kitten can’t even walk, and doesn’t know if it is weaned or not, so he was left in the wilderness…

“Meow.” The kitten turned its head to Ye Jingxing’s chest, and put his hands in his arms. There was an “I’m tired” vibe all over its body.

Ye Jingxing touched the little hair ball comfortingly, and then opened the cultivation forum in the sea of ​​​​knowledge, his spiritual power recovered a lot, and he should be able to send another message to the flower demon.

Who knew that the flower demon left him a message early in the morning.

【Are you dead? 】

Ye Jingxing pursed his lips, unable to hold back the smile on the corner of his mouth.

I always feel… this flower demon is somewhat duplicitous.

[Not yet, can you tell me about the situation here? My spiritual power should only be enough to send this message, I may not be able to reply to you] 

Sure enough, after the message was sent, the panel began to remind him that his spiritual power was insufficient.

Ye Jingxing always felt like a poor B who owed his mobile phone and couldn’t pay the phone bills.

Back there quickly.

[Everyone said to let you go, why didn’t you go? ? 】

After waiting for a long time for his reply, another one came in angrily.

[What kind of rubbish are you, so many three- or four-year-old brats swipe the chat channel every day to find cultivation partners, but you can’t even reply to a message? 】 

Ye Jingxing waited quietly.

Not long after:

[This is an ancient battlefield thousands of years ago, it’s full of corpses, so it’s called a dead city] 

[There is a strong barrier in the dead city, it is said that it suppresses some ancient monsters, if the barrier is loose, The entire cultivation world will experience a catastrophe. ] 

[But these things can’t be studied, because no one can ever get out of here alive. Over the years, many powerful cultivators have tried to go in and crack the secrets of the dead city, but they all ended up here, and even a big man who had expired Nascent Soul died. ]

[After several parties discussed it, they decided to erase the existence of the dead city to avoid panic. The map was changed by your grandfather, Mr. Ye, and he laid a barrier around the periphery, saying that it was a sea. 】

【Except for the caravans and a few powerful people who often come and go in the Three Realms, this secret is only known by the demons and monsters around the dead city.】

【I advise you, this waste who doesn’t even have the spiritual power to browse the forum, don’t think about it】

【Understand? ]

[Go away when you understand. 】

【The Ye family sent you here because they wanted you to die here. 】

Ye Jingxing stared at the news full of consciousness, and sighed silently in his heart that it is good to have spiritual power.

After digesting the above information, Ye Jingxing thoughtfully rubbed the cat’s head that grew out of the jacket with his chin.

The kitten shook its ears and tucked into Ye Jingxing’s clothes to prevent it from rubbing and itching.

In other words… If you get through here, you can save a lot of trouble for the entire continent?

Now the Three Realms move around very frequently.

——After all, mutual benefit and win-win is the long-term solution.

Some time ago, Ye Yan bought some spirit plant from the demon clan and some stones from the demon clan through the trading area of ​​the Cultivation Forum. It took a long time for the two spirit pigeons to be delivered. He didn’t make it this time to go out.

In this way, it is estimated that it is too time-consuming to circle around the dead city.

If this fortress is opened, it is estimated that it will be more than a little faster.

However, Ye Jingxing was not as domineering as other cultivators since he was aware of how weak he was. Since many great powers were powerless to intervene, it was clear that this element was unusual.

It’s just that everything has a solution, he doesn’t feel that his father arranged for him to come here just to want him to die.

Although his father doesn’t seem to be serious and loves to cheat his son, after all, he is the number one sword cultivator in the cultivation world. Although he is now ranked second, at least his brain is not crowded by the door.

And… he could feel that everything his dad had done over the years was to protect him.

If Xiao He knew what Ye Jingxing was thinking, she would probably be half-dead with anger, she was talking so much and even mocking her just to make this person retreat in spite of the difficulties.

Just when Ye Jingxing lowered his head and pondered, the sound of kicking stones suddenly came from behind.

Ye Jingxing closed the Cultivation Forum and his doomed reputation. A young boy with cat ears in tattered clothes was walking towards him from the dead city. He was a fool. Judging by the patterns on his ears and tail, it should be San Hua.

Thinking of Xiao He’s words, Ye Jingxing asked subconsciously, “Is Your Excellency dead or alive?”

Sanhua: “?”

How dare a human cultivator with the third level of Qi practice dare to talk to him like that?

“Do you, young master, think I am dead or alive?” Sanhua raised the stone on the ground with her feet, and with a stroke of spiritual power, the stone flew over Ye Jingxing’s hair aggressively.

Ye Jingxing blinked his eyes and calmed down, and said, “You have to come over and let me confirm.”

This is the first time I have seen a live cat demon.

It feels… pretty fun.

I don’t know if his catnip has any effect on the cat demon.

Sanhua: “???”

Does this person think he has lived too long?

Sanhua scolded the man in his heart, but walked towards the other side uncompromisingly.

Without him, Ye Jingxing’s place was too fragrant, there was a smell that attracted him, and he came here according to this smell.

Ye Jingxing stood up and stared at the cat-eared boy in front of him who was as tall as him, reaching out to touch his ears, but Sanhua swiftly avoided him.

After all, the power gap is there.

Sanhua is not a monster with a particularly powerful cultivation, but it is enough to throw Ye Jingxing on the eighteenth street of the third level of Qi practice.

“I said, what’s going on with you, human? If you want to die, you can go in there directly yet you have to provoke me?!” Sanhua, whose ears were almost touched, was more than annoyed. If it was in the form of a kitten, it would probably have become a ball.

Pause

Unmute

“Didn’t you say that no living thing can come out from here? Why do you seem to have nothing at all?” Ye Jingxing asked without answering.

“This is my domain, little grandpa, of course there is nothing.” Sanhua folded his arms and carefully looked at Ye Jingxing from head to toe.

This human was born very good-looking, wearing a light blue long gown, as if he came out of a picture scroll, more delicate than those Lao Shizi flower demons and fox demons he had seen. Here, this is not a good place.

But… that aroma seems to be emanating from this person.

Ye Jingxing raised his eyebrows when he heard the words: “You are the big demon who was suppressed here?” 

The little black cat heard his name and arched his head out of Ye Jingxing’s chest. After a while, he remembered that Sanhua had been wandering above his barrier for a long time.

He remembered that when this Sanhua was first thrown into the dead city, he was still not weaned, could not even walk, often fell and ate a mouthful of sand…

Thinking of this, a certain big demon buried his head a little autistically. Back to Ye Jingxing’s chest.

Shame.

Really humiliating.

Sanhua’s eyes drifted elsewhere: “Of course… not.”

Ye Jingxing nodded, looking at it too.

“Then…”

“Are you crazy?” Sanhua interrupted Ye Jing’s words before he finished speaking, “Ask, ask, ask. Ask what? You still have more questions? I’ll ask you instead, who are you? What are you doing here?”

Ye Jingxing thought for a while, and then said, “This is my domain, and I will manage it.”

Sanhua didn’t even think about it: “Is your brain crowded by the door?”

Ye Jingxing: “…”

“Open the map of the Cultivation Forum and see if the owner here is called Ye Jingxing.”

Although there was a sea marked on the map, his name was already marked on the sea.

“What is the Cultivation Forum?” Sanhua’s concern was wrong.

Ye Jingxing: “…”

This cat has been cultivating for so long, why doesn’t he even know about the cultivation forum?

Even a three-year-old kid will find a cultivation companion on the forum.

Ye Jingxing spent half an hour briefing Sanhua on the Cultivation Forum and how to open the Cultivation Forum. 

Sanhua listened very carefully, and the little black dumpling in the clothes also listened very seriously, which once gave Ye Jingxing the illusion that he was a cat mother.

“Is this all right?” San “country-cat” Hua finished running his spiritual power according to Ye Jingxing’s instructions. The beast pupils stood up slightly, obviously a little surprised at the new panel that suddenly appeared in the sea of ​​​​knowledge.

Ye Jingxing nodded: “You can use your spiritual power to change the name to your own.” 

The default names are all random, and Ye Jingxing’s default name has always been “Practice Qi Level 1”.

In order to prevent cultivators from changing their names frequently and doing bad things in vests, changing a name requires a lot of spiritual energy, and Ye Jingxing couldn’t afford it, so he never changed it.

Unlike Ye Yan, it was a common practice to change his name every few days, and he was still looking for a cultivation partner every day. 

It’s a pity that after each girl exchanged portraits with him, there was no news.

This led to Ye Yan wanting to use Ye Jingxing’s portrait to deceive the little girl, but unfortunately Ye Jingxing’s face was too recognizable and the risk of losing his horse was too great, so he had to give up.

Ye Jingxing had more than once rejoiced that there was no p-picture software in this world.

The default name of this Sanhua was “Steamed Shadfish”, and it looked quite fragrant, Ye Jingxing suddenly felt a little hungry.

“I…” Sanhua lowered his eyes and his voice was as low as a mosquito, “I don’t have a name.”

Ye Jingxing was stunned for a few seconds, and then quickly came to his senses.

This kitten has been cultivating for such a long time that he doesn’t even know about the Cultivation Forum. It is estimated that it is a little wild cat with no guidance. It is reasonable to have no name.

And… Ye Jingxing ran a cattery in his last life, no one knows cats better than him, cats like Sanhua are all female cats, and most male cats are disabled, short-lived and infertile.

Like the little black cat he picked up, this Sanhua was probably abandoned here because of physical reasons, and it ended up surviving in a dead city by accident.

I don’t know why he didn’t leave here sooner.

Ye Jingxing pondered for a moment and said, “You are a Sanhua cat, why don’t you just call Xiao San.”

Sanhua glared at him: “Don’t think I don’t know what Xiao San means.”

Ye Jingxing: …

He really didn’t mean it.

“Then it can’t be called Xiao Hua, right?”

Sanhua thought about it for a long time, and said discouraged: “Then let’s call it Xiao San.”

After changing the new name, Xiao San wandered around the Cultivation Forum for a long time, and withdrew without interest.

“What’s wrong?” Ye Jingxing asked.

Xiao San twitched for a long time, then whispered, “I’m not very literate.”

Ye Jingxing: “…”

Blame him for not being thoughtful.

Xiao San was in a low mood for a while, but soon recovered himself, bent down and sniffed Ye Jingxing, his ears also shook backwards, and asked, “Why does your body smell so good?”

Ye Jingxing took out a sprig of catnip and handed it to him.

Xiao San took it and smelled it, “That’s the smell, it smells so good… Can I eat it?”

Ye Jingxing nodded.

Xiao San hesitated for half a second, then tentatively took a small bite, then opened his eyes slightly, stuffed the whole piece into his mouth, and exclaimed, “What is this? Why does it smell like alcohol?”

And… the taste. It’s so great, he hasn’t eaten something so delicious in all his life.

“Catnip.”

“Why does mint smell like this?” Although he hadn’t read a book, he had seen peppermint before, so he wouldn’t lie to a cat.

“Exclusive secret recipe,” Ye Jingxing blinked, “The seeds of your plant are soaked in peach blossom, so it smells like wine, sweet, sour, and bitter. Would you like to try it?”

Xiao San nodded.

Ye Jingxing was never stingy with mint, let alone kittens, and even took out a lot.

“Mi.” The little black cat stuck out its head from Ye Jingxing’s collar, and moved its little nose.

He wants it too.

Ye Jingxing immediately understood and took out a sweet leaflet and handed it to the cat’s mouth.

The kitten is really too small, the catnip leaves are almost bigger than its face. He then saw the little black cat move and find a suitable position on Ye Jingxing’s chest, squinting his eyes and enjoying it comfortably, two cheeks bulging, and his white beard shaking.

The real-life version of the cat mukbang made Ye Jingxing feel a little hungry.

“Is there anything to eat here? Or a water source?” Ye Jingxing asked Sanhua while feeling his empty stomach.

Xiao San licked his fingers, pursed his ears tightly, and an inexplicable blush appeared on his face, “What to eat? Yes.”

“What kind of corpse do you like to eat? Men? Women? Old? Small?”

“The little ones are crunchy, the old ones are a bit clumsy…”

Ye Jingxing: “…”

“Are you drunk?”

“I didn’t drink, why would I be drunk?” Xiao San half narrowed his eyes, and his mind was a little bit hard to turn around.

Ye Jingxing did not remember that he stuffed the cat with a few pieces of wine-flavored mint, and he did not want to reason with the drunk cat, but continued to ask the question he wanted to know: “Is there no water source or animals and plants here?”

“No water,” Xiao San kicked the sand on the ground in dissatisfaction, his footsteps were sluggish, and he almost fell, turned his head to Ye Jingxing and said, “Do you think plants can grow in this broken place?”

Ye Jingxing’s heart really doesn’t look like he can grow plants.

“Then what do you usually eat?”

Xiao San blinked his eyes and looked innocent: “I’m fasting, it’s fine if I don’t eat.”

He has been cultivating for a long time for this.

Ye Jingxing: “…”

Miscalculated.

After the foundation is established, inmedia can be achieved.

I really want to see the world other than practicing Qi… This can’t be worn in vain.

But there are seven levels of Qi training alone, and he has just broken through the third level, foundation building. Maybe I can have a dream and rush when I am in my seventies and eighties.

“My head is so dizzy…Is your catnip poisonous?” Xiao San frowned, babbling nonsense, “You want to hurt me, you don’t like me, you all expect me to die quickly. “

“How’s your alcohol intake?” Ye Jingxing asked him.

“I…” Xiao San choked, “I have never drunk.”

Ye Jingxing: “…” No wonder.

“Can’t you pour a cup?” The voice just fell, and the cat demon in front of him fell straight back. Fortunately, the ground was full of soft sand, so he wasn’t injured when falling down.

Ye Jingxing: “…”

He has practiced to the point of inedia, but can it still be affected by the catnip like he was watered by ordinary wine? His cultivation is a bit werid.

“Meow.” While Ye Jingxing squatted down to check Sanhua’er’s situation, the little black cat jumped out from the collar, stumbled to the little three’s hand, picked up a piece of the remaining catnip, and sipped its ears back happily.

Before he could take a bite, Ye Jingxing ruthlessly snatched it away.

“Mi!” The little black cat frowned instantly.

No one has ever dared to grab food from his mouth.

“Little black cats can’t eat alcohol, look at this brother, you will become like him.” Ye Jingxing pointed at Sanhua who was unconscious on the ground, trying to reason with a little black cat.

The more Ye Jingxing said, the more Shen Qiyao wanted to reason.

He is just a little black cat, what’s wrong with this little black cat? The kitten can’t be coaxed?

After a stalemate for a while, Ye Jingxing was defeated, helplessly smoothed the kitten’s fur, took out a piece of sweet catnip to compensate for the cat, and then patted the fur in obedience.

Shen Maomao sat on the ground with his tail on his tail, chewing the catnip leaves slowly, and pursuing his small ears with great satisfaction, like a silkworm gnawing on mulberry leaves, the speed is particularly slow.

It wasn’t that he wanted to eat so slowly, it was just that his spiritual power was sealed by the barrier and could only maintain the form of a black cat. The catnip given by Ye Jingxing was too big for a small milk cat.

But the advantage is that after eating, if it was in its heyday, this piece of catnip would not be enough for him to stick between his teeth.

Ye Jingxing stared at the two cats and sighed.

There is no way, the cubs that I picked up by myself have to be raised even when they cry.

After planting a catnip umbrella again, Ye Jingxing transported Xiao San first, and then sat down with the little black cat who was gnawing on the leaves, planning to wait until Sanhua woke up and ask him about this place.

Like why he can come out of the dead city alive.

For example, are there really no viable plants here?

When he had nothing to do, Ye Jingxing lowered his head and threw some seeds into the sand, one was strawberry seed and the other was catnip seed, both were smaller than sand.

Ye Jingxing used up the few traces of spiritual power he had just recovered, and gently stroked the sand where the seeds were buried with his palm.

After all, he is a wood-type single spiritual root that is rare in a thousand years. Although it is a waste in cultivation, it is still very easy to simply ripen ordinary plants.

When his spiritual power was exhausted, Ye Jingxing seemed to be drained of all his strength, leaning on the umbrella handle against the ground in a daze.

The surroundings were empty, except for Sanhua’er’s snoring, there was only the sound of little black dumpling nibbling leaves. These two sounds intertwined like white noise, making Ye Jingxing, who had exhausted his spiritual power, sleepy.

It didn’t take long for a few small green buds to emerge from the sand on the catnip side.
