My Immortal Master Forced Me to Go Undercover in the Demonic Sect – Chapter 467

Chapter 467: Chapter 105 Squeak (Monthly Ticket Bonus)
Luo Lihong cautiously moved out of the small hut and into the courtyard, but found no trace of anyone.
The beautiful girl, clad in a light, veil-like white dress, her bare feet on the ground, shivered suddenly.
“Is it snowing?” Luo Lihong saw snowflakes gently falling from the sky.
She suddenly realized that winter solstice had passed on Qixia Isle, and with the Peach Godwood of Wuhua Palace temporarily sealed, Peach Town was now experiencing snowfall.
As far as the eye could see, everything was covered in a light silver, the fine snow reflecting the light in the night.
“Is there really no one here?”
Luo Lihong attempted to sense with her spiritual sense. There was no reaction at all, and if anyone had approached, their footprints would have been visible on the fallen snow.
_Whoosh!_
A sound suddenly came from above the girl’s head, startling her. She was even preparing to use sorcery for defense.
“Meow~” A plump tabby cat stepped on the roof tiles, leaped to a tree outside the courtyard, shook off some accumulated snow, and disappeared into the darkness.
“It was just a wild kitten, you scared me. Ye Changsheng is really too nervous,” Luo Lihong breathed a sigh of relief.
Although cultivators’ tolerance to the environment increased with their cultivation as they progressed on the Dao, she could still feel the cold.
“I hope Yingying wears more clothes and doesn’t get cold when she sleeps,” Luo Lihong said, gazing at the distant sky.
At this moment, a young man emerged from the house. “Is anyone there?”
Luo Lihong turned back and complained, “No one, you’re overthinking it. It was just a wild kitten!”
“Maybe I am overthinking it. Hmm, it still hurts a bit, I can’t recover,” Ye Changsheng winced. The more heartache he felt, the more pain accumulated in his spiritual stone sea.
“You really are useless, Ye Changsheng.”
Luo Lihong sighed helplessly, walked over to Ye Changsheng, supported him, closed the door, and they went back together.
“If it hurts, lie down, I’ll do it.”
Ye Changsheng nodded. “Mm.”
…
Meanwhile, in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, the Demon Heart Palace was brightly lit, like a city that never sleeps.
A woman of unparalleled grace and a captivating figure, her striped tiger tail swaying, attracted the envious gazes of countless male demons and the admiring glances of female demons.
“Greetings, Supreme Elder,” a group of demons bowed respectfully to Ya Xin.
“Mm,” Ya Xin nodded slightly, exuding a cool demeanor.
Recently, Ya Xin’s reputation in the Demon Heart Palace had been declining. Some called her the weakest of the Demon Race’s Four Heavenly Kings, others said she had strong paper strength but was a failure in actual combat, or even a pet for the Emperor Lord to pass the time with (mockingly)… and other rather unflattering rumors.
This greatly angered Ya Xin, who decided to reassert her authority in the Demon Heart Palace, or she would find it difficult to command the demon race.
Therefore, the first step was to speak less and act like an expert.
She pretended, hard, exuding a powerful aura as she arrived before the main palace gates.
“What business does the Supreme Elder have?” a demon guard stepped forward to inquire.
“Where is the Emperor Lord?” Ya Xin asked.
“The Emperor Lord is currently resting in the main palace, and has ordered that no one be allowed to enter.”
“I see.”
As Ya Xin prepared to enter the main palace, she was stopped. Her eyes turned cold.
“What do you mean?”
The demon guard was very conflicted. “Supreme Elder, please don’t make things difficult for us. The Emperor Lord has already given orders—”
“Insolent!”
Ya Xin roared, and simultaneously, the pressure of a Soul Transformation Realm expert washed over the demon guards, causing them to prostrate themselves.
“Important matters need to be reported to the Emperor Lord! If there is any delay and the demon race’s grand plan is jeopardized, can you bear the responsibility?!”
“I… I… Supreme Elder, spare my life! This humble one cannot bear it, cannot bear it!”
Upon hearing “demon race’s grand plan,” the demon guards were all terrified. None dared to say another word, and they all began to beg for mercy.
“Hmph.”
Ya Xin ignored them and walked directly through the main palace gates, letting them wallow in their fear.
“Hahaha, I succeeded!!” Ya Xin secretly rejoiced. It seemed her imposing image had been well-established just now.
She entered the main palace with light, somewhat cheerful steps.
The main palace of the Demon Heart Palace seemed to be asleep, with no lights on. This made Ya Xin start to wonder if the Emperor Lord was actually in the main palace.
She felt something was odd, a sense of inexplicable disharmony. There was no one inside, not even a trace of life. It was as if the Emperor Lord had driven everyone away.
“Squeak.”
“Hm?”
Suddenly, on the steps, Ya Xin saw a white shadow flash by.
She could hardly believe her eyes and chased after it, only to see a small animal.
“A white… little hamster?”
The little hamster, noticing Ya Xin, began to run. Its speed was astonishing.
Normally, it was impossible for a creature like a hamster to enter the main palace of the Demon Heart Palace. The servants were always diligent in their cleaning, as their lives depended on it.
“If the Emperor Lord sees a hamster here, she will surely be furious. I must catch it quickly!”
Ya Xin’s figure flickered as she employed a movement technique, landing beside the little hamster.
For her, capturing such a creature was effortless. If she, as the Supreme Elder of the Demon Heart Palace, a great cultivator in the Soul Transformation Realm, couldn’t even catch a small hamster, she might as well end her life on the spot—
“Squeak!” The little hamster was agile and actually dodged.
“What!!!”
Ya Xin couldn’t believe she was dreaming. She tried again but only startled the hamster, which dodged even faster. The seemingly clumsy little furball was as fast as lightning.
“Am I really reduced to being mocked by a hamster now!?”
Ya Xin was enraged, unable to accept the reality.
“I must catch you today!”
…
An hour later, Ya Xin had exhausted all her skills and finally caught the white little hamster.
She was panting heavily, almost at her limit. She had nearly destroyed the main palace, causing a great commotion.
Fortunately, due to the Emperor Lord’s orders, everyone had been driven away, so there was no one else here. If others had seen this, she would have lost face completely.
“Ha, ha… truly… you’re quite something, to force me to use such a… ultimate killing array to trap you!” Ya Xin chuckled as she held the little hamster in her hand, feeling extremely satisfied.
To think that this little hamster was not only fast but could also manipulate formations.
Ya Xin was one of the cultivators in the Demon Race who specialized in formations. Even powerful formations couldn’t contain the little hamster. In the end, for the sake of her pride, she had no choice but to deploy a killing array.
“Squeak, squeak!” The little hamster tried to struggle free from Ya Xin’s grasp.
“Hmph, you still want to run? It’s not that easy anymore!” Ya Xin glared at the hamster and threatened, “Speak, who are you? Tell me your identity, and why are you in the Emperor Lord’s main palace!”
“Squeak squeak.”
“What are you saying? I don’t understand. Have you opened your spiritual intelligence yet? How strange…” Ya Xin mumbled.
However, upon closer inspection, this little hamster was round and plump, like a little ball of dough, incredibly cute. Its fur was also smooth, making it a beautiful pet. She wondered who owned it.
“You’re so cute, I’ve never seen a hamster this cute before,” Ya Xin’s finger rubbed the hamster’s belly. It was soft and felt quite good.
“Squeak!” The little hamster seemed displeased.
“Be good, won’t you? If the Emperor Lord sees you, you’ll surely die, understand?” Ya Xin said. “I’m saving you. Stay put while you’re with me, and the Emperor Lord won’t know. You won’t be in any danger.”
“Squeak squeak?”
“Oh, right, do you have a name? Should I give you one and keep you as my pet?”
Ya Xin thought of adopting the little hamster, to amuse herself with it occasionally, perhaps as a way to relieve stress, as being a Supreme Elder in the Demon Heart Palace was very tiring.
The little hamster seemed to dislike Ya Xin greatly and kept struggling.
“You’re really stubborn. Are you hungry? I’ll give you something to eat. Just be good.”
Ya Xin casually took out some snacks from her Small Qiankun Bag.
“It’s a peanut, little hamster. Your favorite food.”
“…”
“Come on, come on.”
Ya Xin brought the peanut close to the hamster’s mouth, but the hamster was very reluctant, even resisting Ya Xin’s actions and refusing to open its mouth.
“Open your mouth, ah~ it smells delicious,” Ya Xin urged.
“Squeak!!!” The little hamster seemed to be in a state of extreme anger and bit Ya Xin’s finger.
Ya Xin never would have imagined that her Soul Transformation Realm cultivation and her physical toughness, far exceeding cultivators of the same realm, could be broken by a bite!
“Ah!!!”
She cried out in pain, and let go of the white little hamster.
The little hamster fell to the ground and started running again, this time heading towards the main palace hall, which was where the Emperor Lord rested.
Ya Xin was greatly alarmed. If the Emperor Lord saw this, she would surely be in trouble.
“Don’t run, stop right there!!” Ya Xin shouted as she chased.
But the hamster’s speed was truly too great, even preventing her from setting up a formation before it leaped inside.
Ya Xin, steeling herself, rushed in as well.
The main palace hall was pitch black, with no light whatsoever. It was dark all around. She quickly searched for the hamster’s aura but found no trace of it, as if it had vanished.
A powerful pressure descended like the heavens, crushing down on Ya Xin, causing her Dao heart to collapse, rendering her powerless to resist. She prostrated herself.
“Wuwuwu… Em-Emperor Lord?!” Ya Xin saw a figure on the Emperor’s throne ahead. Tears streamed down her face, her fear causing her to tremble, almost unable to hold back her sobs.
“What are you doing?” Bai Qi, seated on the Emperor’s throne, spoke. Her voice carried a hint of anger that froze the very air.
“Emperor Lord, forgive me. Please listen to my explanation. Although it sounds absurd, I truly did not intentionally intrude and disturb the Emperor Lord!”
Ya Xin’s voice trembled. She immediately shifted all blame to the little hamster.
“Just now, your subordinate was chasing a very strange little hamster. It’s all the fault of that little hamster!”
