Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence

Chapter 31 Bai Xue Bearing Humiliations and Hardships 1

Translator: 549690339

Although the Bronze Ancient Sword was covered in rust, with all of its power concealed, the Maine Coon didn’t doubt the lethal force of this rusty sword.

With a mere thought from the handler of the flying sword, it could pierce through its skull and end its life on the spot.

Yet, the handler didn’t make that decision, leaving the Maine Coon cat dazed for a moment.

The next second, the Bronze Ancient Sword changed its direction, effortlessly bypassing the Maine Coon cat. It took away the small black and white kitten behind it and flew back toward the cultivation chamber.

Shen Yuan, slowly stepping out from the cultivation chamber, waved his right hand, and the Darkness-Light Sword floated beside him.

Then, Shen Yuan grabbed Bai Xue, who was brought back by the Darkness- Light Sword.

The little kitten nervously eyed Shen Yuan while being held by the scruff of her neck.

The change just happened too quickly. Even the Bai Xue, who was guarded by the Maine Coon cat from behind, didn’t see clearly what had happened. There was even dirt and a snack bag stuck to her snowy white paws.

However, realizing that she seemed to have caused a big mess, Bai Xue quickly dropped the snack packaging from her claws. Trying to act cute with her intelligently shining different-colored eyes and the “meow” sound she made, Bai Xue tried to charm her way out of trouble.

Shen Yuan’s mouth twitched, and he glanced at the little kitten in his hand with annoyance.

“I will deal with you later!”

Letting go of Bai Xue, Shen Yuan looked at the big cat sprawling in the courtyard.

When he first detected the demon aura, Shen Yuan assumed it was some of the demons who had previously escaped trying to exact revenge on him after leveling up.

However, after Shen Yuan used his flying sword, the Maine Coon cat immediately guarded Bai Xue behind it.

Considering Bai Xue’s unusual intelligence and wisdom for a small demon, as well as the way she had mysteriously appeared in his home one night, Shen Yuan was sure that the Qi Transformation Stage cat demon had come for Bai Xue.

So Shen Yuan only dispelled its Bronze Head Iron Arm divine skills without actually trying to kill it.

If he had intended to kill it with that strike, the Maine Coon would not have stood a chance.

“Explain yourself,” said Shen Yuan in a calm tone as he looked at the Maine Coon.

Shen Yuan’s response surprised the Maine Coon greatly.

In its view, sneaking into the residence of a Void Refining True Monarch would justify being killed by Shen Yuan, and no one would call that unfair.

“Perhaps this True Monarch is a kind-hearted person!”

Realizing that it still had a chance to rescue its king, the Maine Coon quickly lowered its head in an act of courtesy and said reverently:

“Lord True Monarch, my family…”

Pausing briefly, the Maine Coon suddenly realized a problem—Shen Yuan didn’t lock Bai Xue up somewhere, he simply let her roam freely in the yard.

Not having tried to kill them immediately when attempting to take Bai Xue was quite unusual.

Bai Xue’s bloodline was so noble that even a Void Refining True Monarch might covet it, so letting her roam freely made no sense.

If he referred to their king directly, wouldn’t he give away the identity of the hidden bloodline?

Upon this thought, the Maine Coon quickly corrected itself:

“A few days ago, this child and I were separated in an accident. After searching for a long time, I found her here in your residence. I had no choice but to force my way in. I’m simply trying to bring her home.”

At the mention of herself as ‘this child,’ the kitten’s eyes widened in surprise while her puffy face ebbed with indignation.

Shen Yuan didn’t seem to care about Bai Xue’s expression though. The Maine Coon’s words confirmed his initial guess that the cat had known Bai Xue before

and invaded the courtyard just to rescue her.

As for the Maine Coon calling Bai Xue “this child”, Shen Yuan didn’t give it much thought. Instead, he casually asked:

“Are you not her parent?”

Upon hearing this, the Maine Coon shivered and quickly shook his head. “I’m not, I certainly am not!”

This kitten has been living with me ever since it was born, and our… relationship is strong.”

Shen Yuan nodded knowingly.

A Maine Coon as large as a tiger certainly couldn’t have fathered such a tiny furball, regardless of any crossbreeding.

Having confirmed the Maine Coon’s intention, Shen Yuan turned his gaze towards a puffy-faced Bai Xue.

Speaking frankly, the Maine Coon should be the real family of Bai Xue, he had just happened to pick her up and kept her for a few days.

Now that her family has come to claim her, he certainly has the ability to forcibly keep Bai Xue, but there’s no point in doing so.

Bai Xue is not a naive kitten. She is a demon with human intelligence. Shen Yuan understands that a forcefully plucked melon is not sweet.

“Bai Xue, do you want to go back with it?”

Bai Xue was very surprised and stunned.

“Is the big demon going to be so kind as to let me go?”

Although living with Shen Yuan meant she had food and drink, and could occasionally sneak around to play with his computer and swipe some snacks, Bai Xue’s attitude toward Shen Yuan was more fear than affection.

If she could leave, she would definitely choose to do so.

She was ready to happily nod her head, but then an idea flashed through Bai Xue’s mind.

“Is the big demon testing me?”

Bai Xue’s cute little face showed an incredibly terrified expression. She immediately recalled what happened the day she arrived at Shen Yuan’s house.

Shen Yuan deliberately left her in the yard, providing an opportunity to observe whether she wanted to escape.

“If I hadn’t seen through the big demon’s intentions early on, I probably would have been forced to sign a Spirit Beast contract by him that very night.”

“For my bloodline, the Spirit Beast contract, a forceful enslavement contract, would damage my potential and bloodline.

Unless it was absolutely necessary, the big demon wouldn’t want to damage my potential and sign the contract forcefully, hence the previous test.”

“He seems to be letting me go today, but in reality, he’s just using this opportunity to test me again.

If I really agree to it, the big demon will know that I haven’t truly submitted to him, even at the cost of damaging my potential, he will definitely force me to sign the contract.

The moment I do, I would totally lose my freedom and the big cat would undoubtedly be silenced by the big demon!”

Bai Xue couldn’t help but shiver, her eyes full of fear when she looked at Shen Yuan.

“Truly a big demon who has survived the Spirit Energy depletion period for three thousand years, what a deep plot!”

Having seen through Shen Yuan’s plot, Bai Xue quickly shook her head in rejection to the eager Maine Coon.

In the Maine Coon’s disappointed and shocked gaze, Bai Xue pleasingly rubbed against Shen Yuan’s leg, purring “meow-meow–”

About Bai Xue’s choice, Shen Yuan was taken aback. However, his face showed a relieved smile.

After all, he had been raising her for over a week now, and during this time, even though Bai Xue was a bit greedy, a bit playful, a bit cunning…

Thinking carefully, Shen Yuan couldn’t help but frown. He tentatively said to Bai Xue, “Or maybe you should go?”

Hearing this, Bai Xue became even more panicked. She immediately showed a ‘don’t you dare trick me’ expression, her little paws clung tightly to Shen Yuan’s leg, as if refusing to let go, no matter what.
