Chapter 129 The Daily Life of Raising an Internet Celebrity Cat (The End)
Li Wenbu's eyes narrowed. He could tell from this simple action that the cameraman who had been following Jun Ran was actually on par with him in terms of cultivation, and that there was more than one of them. Now he was in trouble.
Just as he was thinking this, his ears suddenly caught the sound of wind breaking, coming from behind him.
Wait, behind us?
Junran and the other two were standing in front of him, but there was no one behind him.
Without a second thought, he tried to dodge the attack from behind, but he was too slow. The sharp claws grazed his head, sending up a spray of blood.
"Oops, it got dodged!"
Miao Yeyu glanced at the bloodstains on her claws with disdain and said with a hint of regret.
Li Wenbu barely managed to steady himself, staring at Miao Yeyu in shock. The wound from his recent scratch stung painfully, reminding him that this was indeed the case.
"How could you?"
"Oh dear, that's a question that exposes your lack of intelligence!" Junran chimed in, sounding exasperated. "You're a demon who's cultivated for a hundred years, after all. Even though you're missing half of your demon core, you're still more than capable of dealing with a mere cultivator like you who's only been cultivating for ten years. You don't really think you're invincible, do you?"
"You...you're lying to me?"
Li Wenbu asked incredulously.
"Hmm, you finally figured it out, congratulations!"
Junran clapped for him in a mock manner: "But unfortunately, you realized it too late!"
As soon as he finished speaking, another cameraman standing behind him joined the battle, also wielding an unsharpened dagger. Together with the other cameraman and Miao Yeyu, they formed a pincer movement and attacked together.
Li Wenbu was filled with despair. He couldn't understand how things had turned out this way. Everything was fine just a moment ago, so how could he have become the weaker party in just a few breaths?
In the few seconds that he was lost in thought and stunned, two knives and a pair of claws were pressed against his vital points. Li Wenbu had already realized the situation and pragmatically gave up resisting. He loosened his grip on his right hand, and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground.
"So you're such a coward!"
Miao Yeyu muttered something to herself, then suddenly grabbed Li Wenbu by the neck. Her demonic power surged, and a faint orange-yellow light emanated from Li Wenbu's body. As the light grew brighter, a semi-circular bead suddenly emerged from Li Wenbu's mouth.
"It was swallowed, how disgusting!" Miao Yeyu was a little disgusted, but he had to get the half of the demon core back. Helplessly, he made a hand seal, summoned a large handful of water, took his demon core to the side, and began to wash it.
Junran: "..."
"Notify the alliance's wrap-up team to handle things here. The production team should find a suitable reason to have them re-record the show. To be on the safe side, all these cameras should be destroyed."
Seeing that the matter had been settled, Junran gave instructions to the two cameramen.
"Yes!"
-
"Weren't you going to explain to me? What kind of explanation is it for you two to just sit here in silence?"
Yu Liu straightened her back, crossed her arms, stood on the sofa, and stared fiercely at the two people squatting in front of the sofa, her tone unfriendly.
"Um... well, this wasn't my idea. Let him explain. I'm just an innocent accomplice!" Jun Ran had a fawning smile on his face, but his words betrayed Miao Yeyu without any mercy.
"Baby……"
Miao Yeyu looked at Yu Liu pitifully, her ears drooping in grievance, her eyes filled with tears, making her look especially endearing.
"Stop playing the victim and put your ears back!"
Yu Liu remained unmoved, her inner anger burning fiercely, not something that could be extinguished so easily.
Miao Yeyu pouted and obediently put his ears away. Since fusing with the lost demon core, he had been able to control his body at will.
"explain!"
Yu Liu coldly uttered two more words.
"Eek..." Miao Yeyu looked at Yu Liu with a wronged expression. Seeing that Yu Liu was indeed unmoved, she finally told Yu Liu the truth.
"Actually, we really didn't mean to hide it from you. We just didn't think it was necessary to involve you in this at first, because it might be a bit risky. So baby, I really didn't mean to!"
Before explaining the situation, Miao Yeyu emphasized something before finally telling Yu Liu: "Baby, do you remember when we were attacked by that puppet pigeon, we both passed out, and then I turned into human form, and when you woke up, we told you what happened while you were unconscious?"
Yu Liu thought for a moment, vaguely remembering: "You told me that you woke up and happened to run into Jun Ran when he came back, and then Jun Ran found you... and then..."
Yu Liu frowned, and then what did she say?
It seems they didn't say that at the time I asked them if they had started fighting, and they answered that they hadn't, and then the topic changed.
"Actually, I didn't understand the situation at the time, so I hid and ambushed Junran. We didn't actually fight. He found that I didn't have any bloody aura, the kind of aura you get after doing bad things, so he didn't make a move. Then my ears gave away my identity, and we chatted for a bit."
"I do have a few missing memories, probably because my demon core was taken away. I know my demon core is missing, but I can't remember what the person who took it looked like. Plus, I wasn't transforming on my own back then, and I could revert to a completely mindless state at any time, so I asked Junran for help."
Junran continued, "I agreed. After arriving here, I discovered the Demon Exorcist Alliance. It's a very peculiar alliance, and I joined out of curiosity. The Demon Exorcist Alliance isn't primarily dedicated to eliminating demons; rather, it's more about restraining demon exorcists—essentially eliminating those who cause trouble. Li Wenbu was someone the alliance had been watching for a long time. We knew he suddenly had half a demon core, but we couldn't determine its origin. If he had privately killed an innocent demon to obtain the core, he would be punished by the Demon Exorcist Alliance. However, if he obtained the half demon core through some kind of fortuitous encounter, we had no right to interfere. After Miao Yeyu mentioned losing half a demon core, this was the first person I thought of. So we planned to lure him out. The message Miao Yeyu sent was a signal to Li Wenbu."
"Then he fell for it. The Demon Exorcist Alliance has been monitoring him closely lately, which has restricted his actions. He needs powerful forces, so he hired online trolls to incite my fans and force the production team to let me participate in the recording again. He tried every means to get into the production team just to find an opportunity to contact me and take the remaining half of the demon core."
After hearing the whole story, Yu Liu still frowned: "Is Li Wenbu stupid? Why did he have to choose to make a move while the show was being recorded? Wouldn't it have been better to lie low for a while?"
“Actually, it was right for him to make his move during the recording of the show.” Miao Yeyu patted Yu Liu’s head. “The Demon Exorcist Alliance is a very mysterious organization. Its members are generally very low-key, and there are also rules within the alliance that members cannot appear in public in a high-profile manner. Of course, he is an exception.” Miao Yeyu pointed to Jun Ran. “So places like the recording of TV programs are where their surveillance is weakest. This was an excellent opportunity. We were taking a gamble, and we won. He really made his move here.”
"As for Li Zian mixed in here, that was just an accident, don't worry about him, hahaha~"
"Baby, it was wrong of me to keep this from you. I'll never do it again, so please forgive me, okay?"
After finishing the business, Miao Yeyu once again went from being serious to looking pitiful.
"I won't forgive you! Who told you to keep it from me and make me live in fear? I won't forgive you, absolutely not!"
Yu Liu turned her head to the side, jumped off the sofa, and walked past Miao Yeyu without looking to the side.
"Baby, baby, I was so wrong... baby..."
The sound faded into the distance, leaving Junran behind. He sighed, "Sigh... I'm such a pitiful little thing, nobody cares about me..."
