Chapter 35 The Cat's Return

"Just hold on for more than ten breaths. The amount that the body can absorb every day is limited. Don't force yourself."

Deng Weixian's godfather saw that he had not taken his hands out for a long time, and couldn't help but remind him.

"After all, he is still a child, always looking for opportunities to show himself."

For Deng Weixian's behavior, the godfather just thought it was cute.

This at least proves that under Deng Weixian's cold appearance, he still hides the childishness of a teenager.

Deng Weixian did not take his hands out immediately, but held on until sixteen breaths later, and then he felt that no more coldness was being absorbed into his body.

He took his hands out of the pottery jar, and the sticky tiger blood was dripping, and his palms no longer showed any signs of absorption.

At this time, when the tiger blood was taken out of the pottery jar to check, Deng Weixian found that the color of the tiger blood seemed to have faded.

Although he fainted last night, he seemed to remember that this thing was originally dark blue.

But now the blue has become lighter, and it is closer to light blue.

"What's going on?"

Compared to yesterday, today is like soaking your hand in well water. It's not painful at all, and it's even comfortable.

When the godfather saw Deng Weixian's expression was a little solemn, he thought he was enduring the pain.

But even so, Deng Weixian's performance was still excellent.

Looking back on the past, he was only able to hold back his screams until the fifth time.

"This boy's tenacity is really terrifying."

The godfather claimed that he was not inferior to others, but he admired Deng Weixian a little.

When he was his age, he didn't have such a terrible ability to bear.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was a correct decision to accept Deng Weixian as his disciple.

Deng Weixian was so pleasing to the eye.

Although Deng Weixian had doubts in his heart at this time, he was not a person who would take the initiative to talk too much, especially since this matter didn't seem to be harmful to him.

If the godfather didn't ask, he wouldn't say anything.

Moreover, Deng Weixian saw his godfather looking at him approvingly and nodding from time to time, which made him feel that he had practiced well.

"I must be overthinking. Maybe this fierce tiger blood essence only hurts when it is absorbed for the first time."

"Oh, godfather didn't remind me specifically just now, it must be so!"

Deng Weixian thought more and more about it, and gradually relaxed his mood. He began to practice the ten tiger forms to digest the fierce tiger blood essence he had just absorbed according to his godfather's previous teachings.

As he performed the ten tiger forms, he felt that the coldness he had just absorbed in his body began to circulate rapidly and spread throughout his body.

The cool feeling made his body lighten and he felt unprecedented comfort.

"Practicing martial arts can be so comfortable!?"

Deng Weixian was secretly surprised. Thinking back to the situation in the past few days when he was getting weaker and weaker, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

One thought can lead to life, and one thought can lead to death.

He could only be glad that he made the right decision.

Then it was the blood-killing tiger claw. Deng Weixian's moves today were particularly powerful and vigorous.

He could feel that when he made a move, the icy breath in his body was also mobilized, bringing with it gusts of cool wind.

The icy breath in his body was too weak now, but in time, it would be as powerful as his godfather said.

Li Xuan secretly watched Deng Weixian practice martial arts, and he was itching to do so.

If Deng Weixian's godfather had not been present, he would have practiced with him.

While Deng Weixian was practicing martial arts, his godfather was correcting him, and Li Xuan also learned a lot.

Time passed quickly, and in a moment Deng Weixian began to slowly finish his practice, ending tonight's practice.

"Not bad, with such progress, it will not be a problem to enter the ninth rank within a month."

The godfather nodded with satisfaction.

Deng Weixian's eyes brightened up a lot after receiving such an evaluation, and he was obviously very happy.

"Godfather taught me well."

Godfather couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, thinking: "This kid doesn't talk much, but he always speaks well."

"Okay, that's all for tonight."

Godfather left a word and prepared to leave.

Deng Weixian saluted to his godfather's back and sent him off respectfully.

But at this moment, godfather suddenly turned his head, as if he remembered something.

"By the way, there seems to be a rumor that Yanqu Hall is haunted. Have you heard about it?"

"I heard that the eunuch in the Yinfang Palace was still very angry in the hall today and asked the talents not to gossip. It seems that it was just a rumor spread by someone."

Deng Weixian had no interest in this kind of thing, but he still honestly told everything he knew.

Godfather chuckled and told Deng Weixian: "Remember, there is no smoke without fire in this palace. Even if it is a rumor, there may be another storm behind it."

"Please keep an eye on this matter for me. If there is any news, put a pair of shoes in front of your window, and I will come to find you."

This was the first time that Godfather asked Deng Weixian to do something. He quickly agreed and took this matter to heart.

Li Xuan's eyes also rolled in the dark, and he immediately understood.

With this person's identity, there is no news in the palace that can be hidden from him.

Even if the eunuch in the seal room of Yanqu Hall intended to block the news, I'm afraid it would be the same.

It's probably just a few days earlier or later.

He specifically asked Deng Weixian to investigate the news, I'm afraid it was also a test.

"I don't know if Deng Weixian has thought of this, but with his temperament, he will definitely go all out to investigate the news, so there's no need for others to remind him."

...

The yard soon became quiet.

Deng Weixian went back to his room to rest, and his godfather had left long ago.

Li Xuan climbed down from a tree in the yard and didn't leave immediately.

He originally planned to go back to practice, but changed his mind after Deng Weixian's godfather left a task to inquire about the news.

Calculating the time, the small table is about to take action.

This matter should be the most clearly understood by Li Xuan.

Even the eunuch in the seal room of Yanqu Hall just sealed Liang Chuchu's mouth today, and had no intention of continuing to investigate.

As for Liang Chuchu, she just saw a shadow in the middle of the night.

In other words, with Li Xuan's help, Deng Weixian might be able to give a perfect answer in less than a day.

The better Deng Weixian's performance, the more his godfather will value him.

"Little Deng, I've benefited a lot from you recently, so I'll repay you today."

Li Xuan licked the cat's paw and immediately had a good idea.

"Look at my cat's return of gratitude."

Li Xuan turned and jumped into the darkness, searching in the Yanqu Hall.

After a while, his figure reappeared in front of Deng Weixian's door.

And there was something more on his paw.

It was a long tail, tightly wrapped around the paw.

At the other end of the tail was a rat that had lost all hope in life.

There were crystal tears in the rat's little eyes.

It knew that it might be too late to go home for dinner tonight.

Li Xuan didn't care about the mouse in his hand being sad and depressed. He took it and sneaked to Deng Weixian's window, standing on its two hind legs like a little man.

He listened to the movement in the room and found only a steady breathing sound.

And in the room on the other side, there was a rustling sound.

It was obvious that the small table was going out too.

Li Xuan didn't delay any longer, lifted up a corner of the window, and quickly turned the mouse's claws, bringing a burst of whirring sounds.

"Go!"

Thanks to "Not Round Enough", "Yuyu Little Angel", "Taishang Wuji Immortal Supreme Heavenly Emperor", "Orc Must?", "Head Concubine" for their monthly ticket support.

Bai Miao will show you my tongue.
