Chapter 18 – Concealing Evidence With Ning Guang by her side, Di Jiufeng could bully the system however she wants to. The system has no way of retaliating.
The system felt that its fragile steel heart was about to crumble into smithereens, "Honourable Host, it was my fault. I shouldn"t have bullied you, I don"t dare to do it again. Whatever you want to know, I will tell you. As long as it is within my scope of authority, I promise not to hide anything from you!"
"Scope of authority?" Hearing this word, Di Jiufeng felt slightly bewildered. She asked, "You don"t even have the scope of authority over your own programme?"
The system nodded and whined while sobbing, "Regarding those items that are not yet in the plot, I don"t even have the authority to inspect them. It"s not that I want to hide it from you, but I really do not know.
Take for example, all I know is you must gather and collect the items in the system"s store. However, before the plot starts, I have no idea what their uses are and any information about them. Honourable Host, I can give you another one hundred fortune points. Please don"t let the ancient witch hit me." The system collapsed onto the floor with a whine. Its own tears nearly drowned its fragile self.
Di Jiufeng glanced at the sparking microchip, fearing that he would short circuit himself with his own tears.
She immediately said, "Alright, give me the items and a goodbye kneel."
Upon receiving amnesty, the system transacted one hundred fortune points to her and tossed the dudou into the system"s s.p.a.ce. Immediately after that, the system shut down in a rush.
The ancient witch was becoming stronger and stronger, the oppressing feeling had steadily increased in this mere twenty days. Based on the current situation, once the ancient witch reached grand completion in her cultivation, there was nothing else he could do. The system"s heart was very exhausted. He was trying to transform the ancient witch while bearing all of the burden, and in the end, though the world is big, there will be no place for him to hide.
Enough, he wanted to go find some peace.
The system shut down and silently went to heal its wounds. Di Jiufeng did not have anything else to do, other than teaching her disciple, she would also feed the chicks. Since they ate a lot and disliked exercising, the small b.a.l.l.s of fur had completely inflated into round b.a.l.l.s. Everyday, they just loved to shake their short legs and flap their wings while going around Di Jiufeng in circles.
Di Jiufeng also liked them, especially rubbing their feathers. She would stroke their feather sideways, backwards and forwards. She would always place a couple of them on her legs while sun tanning under the tree.
As Di Jiufeng focused on raising the chicks, the time she spared for her disciple gradually decreased.
Watching how her Shifu always carried those furries with her, how she patiently fed them, stroked them, a sinister idea suddenly sprouted in Ning Guang"s heart. She loathed those chicks, she hated them for stealing her Shifu"s gaze. Her Shifu forever belongs to her, if others dared to steal it, she would kill those humans or animals.
Ning Guang could not control the hatred in her heart. Although she knew that her Shifu would not like her doing it, however, this illness had its own desire and had never once stop flourishing.
Like a spreading moss in a corner, this type of twisted feeling had deeply rooted itself within Ning Guang"s heart.
She finally couldn"t resist it anymore. In the middle of the night, she ran out and buried every one of those vivid lives under the ground. How could she let others share in the warm sun she had struggled so hard to seize? She even wished that there could be only two people on this world, her and her shifu. Like this, Di Jiufeng would never again move away her gaze.
Daybreak gradually arrived, and when the first streak of dawn light slashed open the curtain of night, Ning Guang also hid the darkness in her heart.
She hurriedly ran back, laying back in the bed before her Shifu awoke. To conceal the fact that she had awaken long ago, she even placed a sleeping spell on herself.
The chicks on the mountain had disappeared, and of course Di Jiufeng would find out. She walked a circle around the mountain, but didn"t even find a strand of down.
What a strange thing, did her little fluff b.a.l.l.s run away by themselves?
While pondering, she walked towards the Pear Blossom forest. Upon seeing her disciple who had just sheathed her sword, Di Jiufeng waved a hand towards her, "Ning Guang, have you seen those chicks?"
