Archwizard K’s Journey In The Cultivation World

Case 40: Kierra the Feline’s bizarre adventures in the White Lotus Sect.

As a self-proclaimed excellent educator, Kierra was well aware that her presence in front of her disciples could significantly affect their training efficiency.

Some might become more eager to train; some might be nervous; some might be embarrassed.

Maybe because of the incident a few days ago where Kierra playfully gave Tian Yun a feel of her bosom, the sect leader blushed every time she saw Kierra. 

'This is a blunder.'

Who could have thought that Tian Yun was so weak to teases like this?

No good. Kierra needed something quick, else she would become a lousy teacher!

Right. If she couldn't monitor them directly, why wouldn't she use a disguise? A disguise that raised absolutely no suspicion, a disguise that would allow her to move around freely...

Cats. A cat.

She could turn into a cat!

Just like that, intentionally or unintentionally, Kierra completely ignored the option of using clairvoyance and morphed into a cat. The feline version of the archwizard had smooth fur as black as ebony, eyes red as blood, and a white collar with a sizeable pink diamond attached to it.

With each elegant step, the jewel dangled around her neck, gleaming when hit with light. It was a devilishly stylish cat.

Kierra jumped onto her table and took a look at herself, now in the form of a beautiful cat. 

'Perfect.'

She quickly created a gate and got out of her home dimension, arriving near an alleyway. With the intention of first scouting the area and studying a cat's behavior, Kierra ventured from building to building, roaming the bustling town.

As she walked around, she came to realize that cats were quite rare in White Lotus, surprisingly. Nevertheless, soon enough, she found a chubby tabby cat lazing around on a tree branch. Kierra leaped onto the tree, awakening the other cat.

''M-Meow...!!''

The chubby buddy immediately widened his eyes. Never before had he seen such a beautiful mate! When he stepped forward, Kierra noticed something was wrong and blocked him with telekinesis.

''M-M-Meow!!''

As the archwizard listened to his painful wail, she pondered. Were cats supposed to be like this all the time?

''Pang~! Where are you!''

While thinking so, Kierra heard a rather familiar voice. Below, Bai Qing of Qinling Peak could be seen looking around, calling the name of something. Eventually, she turned to the tree branch.

''Ah, Pang! So you were there... huh?''

When Bai Qing flew up, she couldn't help but notice a strange cat perching elegantly on the branch. She clearly had never seen this one before... moreover, it didn't run away like other cats!

''Cutie, where did you come from~?'' The martial sister mused. ''Hm... you reminded me of someone...''

Bai Qing gently stroked Kierra's back, feeling up the smooth fur. The archwizard was about to slap the hand away, yet she had to keep her identity a secret for now. 

'Wait, this is not bad...'

Unconsciously, Kierra closed her eyes and began to purr. Meanwhile, Bai Qing was utterly smitten with this kitten! This cat was clearly special—her instinct was punching at her!

''Cutie, want some treat?'' Bai Qing affectionately asked. ''I have tuna at home—freshly brought!''

Hearing this, the chubby cat blinked his eyes, confused. 

She never fed him tuna before?!

After a bit of shuffling, the chubby cat rested in Bai Qing's arms while Kierra perched on her shoulder. Then, the three flew back to Qinling Peak.

Walking through the little martial sisters, Kierra became an idol in an instant. They hurried over, fighting to pet Kierra. A cat this beautiful and docile was practically unheard of.

When Bai Qing finished feeding the chubby cat, she decided to fly over to the Crimson Tower for some training. 

''Go play somewhere, I'm busy.'' Bai Qing said to Kierra.

''Meow,''

Kierra said no.

''Don't tell me... you want to follow?''

''Meow,''

One human and one cat—the two ventured to the magic tower.

Immediately upon entering the hundredth floor, Kierra was greeted by a busy scene. Disciples were training diligently—it was all good!

''Ah.''

Kierra quickly jumped off Bai Qing and strolled through the room as she pleased. Her gait was confident, her head was high, and her dignity was overflowing!

When she was intently inspecting her students, her body suddenly got lifted by someone.

''What? Where did this come from?''

A wild Tian Yun appeared. The white-haired woman tilted her head. The small bird on her shoulder also tilted its head. Only the fox from the other side was confused.

Wasn't this... Kierra?

''!!''

With a single side glance from Kierra, Shen, the nine-tailed fox, knew what was up and sealed her lips. Tian Yun pondered for a brief while before shrugging.

''Whatever, just a cat.'' She sat down on a bench nearby and put Kierra on her lap. ''But, well... this one looks quite beautiful.''

Tian Yun also stroked Kierra's back, feeling up the smooth fur.

''But red eyes...'' The White Lotus muttered.

Suddenly, she blushed heavily and began to dart her gaze around. As the atmosphere heated up, Kang Shuren approached.

''What an exquisite feline you are holding, sect leader.'' She stated. ''May I pet it?''

''Sure, sure.''

Kang Shuren sat down beside Tian Yun, and the two began to do their business. Kierra, in the midst of all this, was feeling rather relaxed. She didn't know being petted could feel this good... well, it was not as though she had never been treated like a cat before, even in her human form.

The image of a blue-haired woman wielding a sword flashed in her mind.

''...''

While Kierra reminisced about her past, two more contenders approached.

''So the sect leader caught it...'' Bai Qing let out a relieved sigh.

She thought it jumped out the window for a moment. Then came Mie Xieren.

''Hm...?''

Being a Tribulation Stage cultivator, Mie Xieren could see through Kierra's casual disguise in an instant. She was about to call when Kierra cast a glance with her eyes slightly narrowed toward her.

From the angle, it seemed like Kierra was judging her for some reason.

Nevertheless, Mie Xieren understood the assignment.

She promptly squatted down and petted Kierra as well!

(• ̀ω •́) つ

Kierra was speechless. It seemed that being a cat significantly reduced these people's efficiency!

''Still, I wonder who could be this one's owner?'' Tian Yun asked.

''Mhm, especially with this, it can't be a stray.'' Kang Shuren lifted the pink diamond lightly.

At this, Kierra pushed her hand away, showing caution.

''Sorry, kitten.''

''Meow.''

Showing remorse was good.

Just like that, Kierra spent the morning with the four of them, lazing around while having her fur caressed. When it was afternoon, she slipped out of the tower and came to a cave under Qinling Peak. This was where Yu Chen isolated herself.

Normally, Kierra would come in brazenly and tease her a bit, but now, she wanted to know how she trained for once.

Passing through the dark tunnel, Kierra was greeted by a spacious chamber. Light creaked in from outside, barely illuminating the interior. In the middle of it, a woman was meditating in a lotus position, regulating her mana around.

Kierra walked in front of Yu Chen and sat down, observing her face.

The archwizard had seen many beautiful people, and Yu Chen was definitely among the top. A serene and untouchable beauty, if Kierra had to describe Yu Chen. In times like these, it was as though she were looking at a divine entity.

After a long while, Yu Chen finally finished her exercise and opened her eyes.

''Phew... huh?''

''Meow.''

''You are...''

Yu Chen gently lifted Kierra and stared intently at her. The more she looked, the more confused Yu Chen became.

''How did you bypass the formation...?'' She asked herself. ''Well, aside from that... you look awfully like someone I know.''

''Meow.''

''Do you know her? That person looks just like you—lofty, classy, yet unbearably charming.'' Yu Chen smiled. ''I've fallen into her trap, and I can't imagine myself getting out.''

''...Meow.''

''But you know what? I think I want to taste her trap. It should be unbearably sweet, after all.''

Yu Chen hugged Kierra.

''...''

''...''

'Well, this woman is also one of a kind...'
