Quick Transmigration Cannon Fodder's Record of Counterattacks-Chapter 2995: A Male Version of Lin Daiyu

Ever since Ning Shu forced Yin Tian back into slumber, her relationship with Yu Liuli had hit rock bottom.

Yu Liuli no longer brought Ning Shu anywhere.

Meanwhile, Ning Shu, whose soul had taken a severe hit, looked pale as a ghost, walking feebly like a fragile willow in the wind.

She resembled a male version of Lin Daiyu.

Yu Liuli avoided her completely, which Ning Shu found a relief.

Ning Shu had spent this time focused on cultivation, though healing her soul wasn’t something that could be achieved easily.

She could only wait for Yu Xiongfeng to gather the alchemical materials.

Yu Liuli ignored Ning Shu so thoroughly that she didn’t even have her come along to the academy trials.

This time, the academy trials would last several days.

Ning Shu wasn’t the least bit worried. Yu Liuli wouldn’t die; she always managed to turn misfortune into fortune.

All Ning Shu had to do was stay home and get ready to refine the pills.

She needed to resolve the matter of the contract as soon as possible. If nothing unexpected happened, Yu Liuli would probably contract another powerful divine beast during this outing.

When that happened, she’d really be on the chopping block.

“Sir, the family head requests your presence,” a maid said, bowing as she entered Ning Shu’s room.

Ning Shu’s heart leaped with joy. The materials must be ready.

She thanked the maid and got ready to head to Yu Xiongfeng’s study.

“Sir, allow me to guide you. You probably don’t know where the family head’s study is,” the maid offered.

Ning Shu: …

Ning Shu tugged at the corner of her mouth. Under the maid’s eager gaze, she couldn’t bring herself to refuse and nodded. “Alright, lead the way.”

The maid led the way, chatting nonstop as they walked. She kept glancing up at Ning Shu, her eyes sparkling.

Ning Shu: …

Being stared at like this by someone of the same gender made Ning Shu feel a bit awkward.

I’m a divine beast, after all. Are you really willing to risk your life for beauty, young lady…?

Still, this face was undeniably captivating. No matter where she went, people couldn’t help but look.

The maid stopped at the door of the study but didn’t dare to go in.

Ning Shu pushed the door open and asked Yu Xiongfeng, “Are the materials ready?”

“They’re ready. Whatever the family didn’t have, I purchased from merchants,” Yu Xiongfeng replied.

Ning Shu nodded. “Thank you. Let’s start refining the pills.”

Yu Xiongfeng opened a secret chamber in his study, revealing a passage that led to a secluded house.

“This is a property I purchased. It’s quiet and perfect for refining pills.”

Ning Shu looked around the house, noticing the alchemy furnace and rare materials stored in jade boxes.

“I’ll stand guard outside,” Yu Xiongfeng said, his expression a mix of anticipation and nervousness.

Gathering these materials had been no easy task.

If this divine beast could really refine pills, it would mean the family had secured an alchemist. That would be an enormous advantage for the clan.

Ning Shu channeled her fiery yang energy to heat the furnace, then carefully added the ingredients. She extended her spiritual consciousness to monitor the situation inside the furnace.

Using her spiritual consciousness caused it to feel like needles were stabbing her head, but Ning Shu gritted her teeth and endured the pain.

As long as she could refine the soul-nourishing pill, it would repair and strengthen her soul and spiritual consciousness.

That way, she wouldn’t have to worry about soul damage when fighting the small orb. If her soul got injured, she could just pop a pill.

The soul-nourishing pill was a high-grade pill, so Ning Shu had to focus on every detail in the furnace. Failure wasn’t an option since there were no backup materials.

However, since she was recently punished by Yu Liuli, her soul was not in the best state. Ning Shu pretty much held on through sheer willpower.
