Quick Transmigration Cannon Fodder's Record of Counterattacks

Chapter 2365: A Dragon’s Head, Deer Antlers, Lion’s Eyes, and a Tiger’s Back…

They had stayed in the forest for some time. Judging by the speed of Yi Liang’s cultivation, he should be able to form a strand of energy by now.

Yi Liang stood up, clenched his fist, and punched the tree next to him fiercely. An animal with a dragon’s head, deer antlers, lion’s eyes, and a tiger’s back roared out of his fist.

Ning Shu blinked. That was a qilin!

The qilin jumped and slammed into the big tree. The tree trembled violently and the snow on its branches fell.

The entire tree then creaked and fell to the ground.

Yi Liang stared blankly at the fallen tree. He’d just broken a tree with a single punch.

“That punch was so powerful.” Yi Liang looked at his fist, then turned to Ning Shu and said excitedly, “Xiao Hei, I did it! I succeeded!”

“Congratulations,” Ning Shu said with some relief. “But this is only the first step. After this, remember to compress the gas shape so it turns golden. Then, you must compress that spiritual energy again until it becomes water-like.”

“If I do that, will I become extremely strong?” Yi Liang asked. He was incomparably excited.

“P-probably. I haven’t cultivated to that point, so…” Ning Shu vaguely answered.

“I’m sure I’ll become stronger.” Yi Liang was confident. He felt full of strength, and he believed absolutely that he was bound to become stronger.

“Xiao Hei, I want to go back now to the town and investigate my sister’s disappearance,” Yi Liang said to Ning Shu.

“Okay.” Ning Shu didn’t object.

Yi Liang hugged Ning Shu and said in a slightly choked voice. “Fortunately… I’m so lucky that you’re by my side. Thank you, thank you.”

Yi Liang’s tears wet Ning Shu’s fur. In the end, Yi Liang couldn’t hold back his emotions and burst into tears.

He’d been suppressing his emotions, but now that he’d cried, Yi Liang felt more relaxed and happier than ever before.

Ning Shu moved her ears away. He’d been wailing in her ears. She felt like she was going deaf.

“Ah! You guys are leaving now? Are you going to a place where there are loads of people? Take me! Take me with you! Let’s go now!” the little fox jumped out and anxiously said.

Ning Shu: →_→

“Thank you for taking care of us until now. We’re leaving,” Yi Liang said.

They had been there since it was cold and snowing. Now the snow was beginning to melt and ice was slowly breaking to reveal the running water below it. Weeds were also sprouting from the ground.

Winter was over.

After spending so much time with the little fox, Yi Liang was very grateful to him.

He’d sometimes give them some food, although he also often tormented them with his illusions.

Worse, the little fox’s illusion was getting more powerful, and some illusions could remind people of the experience they wished to forget most.

Yi Liang was often forced to repeatedly relive his painful past, especially his parents’ and sister’s disappearances.

He saw his parents being murdered by the demonic cultivator. He heard them cry out to him for help, but he couldn’t do anything. Whenever he rushed over, he’d pass through the illusion.

The voices of his parents echoed in his ears.

When it was about his sister’s disappearance, he’d hear his sister begging for help from somewhere unknown.

Everything felt so real.

For some time, Yi Liang could neither eat nor sleep. His entire body broke down.

It was Ning Shu who made it stop by beating up the little fox. She didn’t allow him to give Yi Liang any more illusions.

If the illusions went on, it’d progressively worsen Yi Liang’s inner demons.

The little fox left Yi Liang alone for a bit.

However, he switched targets and tried to figure out Ning Shu’s inner demons, as well as the things she cared about.

Then Ning Shu fell asleep in the little fox’s illusion, frustrating the little fox.

He kept trying to defeat Ning Shu. He went so far as to show her the worlds she’d experienced over and over again.

Ning Shu just looked at those worlds with a dazed expression. Those people were simply passersby in her life.

Some of those people, however, had a good relationship with her. Ning Shu had to thank the little fox for allowing her to see them again.

Still, since Ning Shu’s heart stayed unperturbed, it made the little fox want to scratch her to death.
