Lu Xuan handed over thirty-two Spirit Stones to the vendor, taking the Cloud Leopard juvenile beast with green pupils from him in exchange.
To prevent the little beast from escaping, the vendor also gave Lu Xuan a Black Rope, tied around the Cloud Leopard’s neck.
With one hand holding on to the end of the rope and the other gently holding the Cloud Leopard, Lu Xuan left the market.
Before heading home, he also specifically visited the shop where he bought the Red-bearded Carp.
The Cloud Leopard juvenile beast was riddled with wounds, so it was necessary to heal it. This shop specialises in various spirit pets and also sells healing medicine for spirit beasts.
He bought a small bottle of ointment from the shop, took the Cloud Leopard, and returned to the courtyard.
“Good boy, don’t move, I’ll untie the rope right now.”
While Lu Xuan gently comforted the Cloud Leopard Juvenile Beast, he untied the Black Rope.
“From now on, this will be your home. Behave yourself and don’t go out casually, or you’ll be caught by those ill-intentioned bad guys.” Lu Xuan scared the Cloud Leopard. The juvenile beast stared at Lu Xuan with its big green eyes, then turned its head to observe the situation indoors. Seeing that the Cloud Leopard was fairly obedient, Lu Xuan was slightly reassured, focusing his consciousness on its black fur.
A thought flashed through his mind.
“Bi Jing Cloud Treading Mink, a first-grade Demon Beast, feeds on Demon Bird eggs and Demon Beast meat.
It possesses strange pupils which allow it to see things that are typically hard to notice. It can even see through falsities, revealing true nature.”
“This really is a strange species of demon beast, these strange pupils seem to
hold something special.”
Lu Xuan exclaimed.
Demon beasts are limited by their bloodline, their strength usually finds it difficult to surpass their own rank. However, this does not include the occasionally seen strange species of demon beasts.
They are far more mysterious than ordinary demon beasts, thus the possibility of breaking through the bloodline constraints is much greater.
“I am a solitary Civet from the North, roaming the boundless wilderness. Despite being covered in wounds, I still enjoy my solitude. Roar-”
This was the current state of Bi Jing Cloud Treading Mink.
Lu Xuan looked at the injured but still proud Cloud Leopard and felt a little pity in his heart.
“Come on, let’s apply this ointment first.”
He pressed down on the head of Bi Jing Cloud Treading Mink, gently clamped it with his leg, took out a small amount of ointment, and gently applied it to the Cloud Leopard’s wounds.
In a short while, patches of ointment appeared on the originally black body of the Cloud Leopard, somewhat diminishing its attractiveness.
“OK, don’t move around for the next few days to avoid interfering with the formation of scars. After applying the ointment a couple more times, it will be mostly healed.”
Bi Jing Cloud Treading Mink continued to gaze at Lu Xuan coldly.
“Come here, let me give you a rub.”
Lu Xuan sensed the solitude from the Cloud Leopard’s current state and got the idea to pet this big cat.
He beckoned to the Bi Jing Cloud Treading Mink, but the short-tailed mink did not move an inch.
“Oh, not obeying yet.”
Lu Xuan stretched out his hand, grabbed it over, stroked its head a few times, and tugged lightly on the clusters of grey-white fur on its pointed ears.
“Roar…”
As he summoned his consciousness to the Cloud Leopard, Lu Xuan seemed to hear a pleased growl from it.
Lowering his head, his eyes met the emotionless green pupils of Bi Jing Cloud Treading Mink. It seemed like the thought was just an illusion in Lu Xuan’s mind.
Lu Xuan couldn’t help but chuckle softly, headed to the kitchen, cut off a piece of wind-dried porcupine meat, tore it into thin strips, and placed them in front of Bi Jing Cloud Treading Mink.
“Here, have some porcupine meat. This is something even I don’t dare to have often.”
The Cloud Leopard, with its emerald eyes, first glanced at the strips of air-dried porcupine meat on the ground. It strolled over as if treading on tiny white clouds and elegantly stuffed a piece into its small mouth.
“Is it tasty?”
Lu Xuan asked quietly.
The Bi Jing Cloud Leopard continued to leisurely eat the porcupine meat on the ground, as if it were merely filling its belly.
However, Lu Xuan noticed its slightly retracted paws, the roundness of its emerald eyes, and the hairs on its ears standing on end.
His attention was entirely focused on it.
“Roar- Who would understand? Today I ate something called porcupine meat,
it really makes it easy for the civet to eat.”
“Hahaha!”
Lu Xuan couldn’t help but laugh. He had a great understanding of the Cloud Leopard Juvenile Beast in front of him now.
On the surface, it seemed proud and aloof, but in fact, it needed love and warmth. It hid everything deep within its heart. If he wasn’t able to monitor the real-time status of Spirit Plants and Beasts, he would have found it difficult to discover this characteristic.
“Your body is saying no, but your heart is saying yes, huh!
Lu Xuan laughed, reaching over and patting its head despite the Cloud Leopard Juvenile’s resistance.
When the Bi Jing Cloud Leopard had almost finished eating, Lu Xuan went to the Spirit Field again and scooped up a bowl of Spiritual Spring water.
The Bi Jing Cloud Leopard sniffed at the Spirit Spring water and stuck out its pink tongue, lapping at the water lightly.
After it had eaten and drunk its fill, Lu Xuan took it to the Spirit Field.
“These are the Spirit Plants that I’ve cultivated, each one is very important. When you’re playing in the yard, don’t harm them, otherwise don’t blame me for being unkind.”
“Also, don’t touch the Three-Tailed Red Whisker Carp in the Spiritual Spring Pool. If one day I find one less, I will hold you responsible.
The Bi Jing Cloud Leopard looked around the courtyard, its head unmoving.
Lu Xuan knew its actual thoughts were not as they appeared on the surface and took it back into the house.
After leaving the Cloud Leopard Juvenile Beast to rest in the house, Lu Xuan went to the Spirit Field alone, checking all the Spirit Plants and catering to their every tiny need.
He then took out a handful of Spirit Rice and scattered it in the Spiritual Spring Pool. Only after the Red Whisker Carp had eaten all of it did he return home.
By this time, it was already dusk.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw the pair of emerald eyes of the Cloud Leopard Juvenile staring at him. As Lu Xuan came into view, it subtly shifted to one side.
“Come here, sleep in my bed.”
Lu Xuan cultivated for multiple cycles before getting ready for bed after washing himself.
He looked at the Bi Jing Cloud Leopard, curled up not too far away, and felt the loneliness and cold inside its heart. He patted the side of his wooden bed, signaling it to jump up.
The Cloud Leopard Juvenile Beast closed its eyes and did not move.
Lu Xuan had no choice but to let it be.
He blew out the candle, laid down, and closed his eyes to rest.
After a while, Lu Xuan opened his eyes, and the Cloud Leopard’s luminous green eyes were staring back at him.
“This creature seems to be nocturnal. Could it be that it gets more excited as the night deepens?”
Muttering to himself, Lu Xuan got out of bed, picked up the Juvenile Beast from an uninjured spot, and without minding its struggles, put it directly onto one side of his bed.
“Behave yourself and rest!”
After giving this instruction, he closed his eyes.
Not long after, Lu Xuan’s breath gradually became long and steady.
The Bi Jing Cloud Leopard felt the warmth emanating from Lu Xuan’s side. It looked at Lu Xuan’s sleeping face with its green eyes, flicked its short, stout tail, and gently closed its eyes..
