However, it doesn't really matter what Qin Yiyao thinks.
Anyway, all that little girl cares about these days is practicing swordsmanship and eating and drinking; she has no energy to care about anything else.
Gu Heng mainly wanted to know what the cat's name was.
She is clearly not ordinary.
There are two possibilities: either she is a demon, or she is a cultivator who practices shapeshifting techniques, specifically mimicking various animals. For example, she can not only transform into a cat, but also into a snake, and so on...
However, no matter what, it didn't diminish her allure; it was by no means weak. She was truly beautiful, possessing a mature yet youthful, cool charm, but no matter how Gu Heng looked at her, he didn't think she was very young.
Ever since he met Jiang Lingyun, his understanding of the concept of "old woman" has reached a new level.
Women with cultivation, especially those with high cultivation, seem to have no difficulty maintaining their youthful appearance. So what about the woman in front of me?
Gu Heng looked at her, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
Su Jinxi also looked up at him.
"I don't know your name yet."
Gu Heng crossed his legs, his posture languid and casual.
Su Jinxi smiled and slowly uttered her name in a clear and melodious voice: "Su Jinxi".
Originally, Su Jinxi felt that her name was not very necessary.
Since she was, after all, someone's pet, it was up to Gu Heng, as the master, to call her whatever he wanted. She just needed to respond. But now it seemed that Gu Heng wanted more than just a pet.
It's a bit strange.
It seems like Gu Heng never knew she could actually turn into a human.
That shouldn't be the case. From the moment I arrived at his clinic, he probably already knew I was a demon. After all, how could someone with his strength not be able to tell?
Forget it, let's not dwell on these things.
Anyway, he's taking good care of himself, hasn't he? He takes the seventh-grade elixir for strengthening his foundation like candy every day, and yesterday he also ate a rare Panlong Peach. The medicinal power that he had been accumulating for so long was fully mobilized in that instant, and only one night had passed.
She evolved to the fifth level of demonic body, which is also the most powerful and ultimate demonic body of the Nine-Lives Demon Cat clan!
However, Su Jinxi felt that the Panlong Peach seemed to have more than just that effect... "Transformation and breaking through limits".
She hasn't felt any of these things yet; perhaps the time isn't right.
"It sounds nice. Can I continue to call you Xiaoxi?"
He nodded.
"Whatever Master wants is fine."
She lowered her eyelashes slightly, concealing the dark light flickering in her eyes, and readily agreed.
Let him call her whatever he wants, as long as she stays by Gu Heng's side.
Gu Heng frowned and corrected her, "Xiao Xi, don't call me master anymore."
"what?"
She blinked, then suddenly tensed up.
Could it be that they're going to get rid of her?
That's not good. She had just broken up with her cousin Su Luo not long ago and said she wouldn't be returning to the clan. Moreover, the Demon King might already know that she was being kept as a pet by a human. Knowing his personality, he would be furious and say that she had disgraced the demon race.
Su Jinxi's time with Gu Heng was not long at all, only a few months. Compared to her more than four thousand years of life, it was like a drop of water compared to a mighty river.
But it just happened to be several months.
She felt a rare sense of peace and preferential treatment.
"What's wrong?" she asked nervously.
“I’m not used to people calling me ‘master’,” Gu Heng said. “Besides, I never intended to keep you as a pet. Since you’ve been with me for so long, you’re practically family to me.”
"You can just call me by my real name, or in any way you like, but don't call me 'master'."
Gu Heng originally just thought he had picked up a stray cat and wanted to keep it as a pet.
But as time goes on, this mindset will naturally change. He didn't know before that Su Jinxi could turn into a human, but the "special" things she showed in every way, such as being able to understand human speech and intentions, made him stop treating Su Jinxi as a pet.
Instead, he treated it like a second family member, spending his days and nights with it. He himself got used to having such a cat by his side who could help him through his troubles.
Otherwise, why would Gu Heng keep thinking about whether she could turn into a catgirl?
It was precisely because of her special nature that I had such delusions.
To everyone's surprise, it actually worked.
Although she was a little different from the catgirl Gu Heng had imagined...
First of all, she wasn't cute; rather, she was mature and aloof. She wasn't the petite type you could hug and kiss, but rather tall and alluring, half a head taller than Qin Yiyao.
Xiong Da and Xiong Er are a whole size bigger than Qin Yiyao!
Moreover, she has neither a cat tail nor cat ears. But she can still be considered a catgirl.
Keeping such a living catgirl as a "pet" is a sin against the heavens!
They should be treated like indispensable family members!
Su Jinxi was stunned for a long time.
She really hadn't expected this.
Do you see yourself as a family member, not a pet?
Her feelings were truly complicated. After hesitating for a long time and considering several ways to address him, she finally said with some hesitation, "Then... Brother Gu?"
Gu Heng's indifferent brows relaxed, and a gentle smile appeared on his lips.
He nodded: "Eh~"
