Chapter 122




In case you are one of the early birds who missed my mid-day update yesterday, I have opened up a poll. Here’s the repost from yesterday:
I  know many of you have been reading and enjoying QQ quietly. It has come time to speak up or forever hold your peace. I have a very important question to ask you!
As the story progresses, the Nine Top Sects would appear more and more. I have been using pingyin (pronunciation) for their names, which, truth be told, is the copped out way of doing it. 🙂 As the story progresses, I would like to solicit your opinion on whether you prefer pingyin or English translation of their names.
You can follow this to vote. You do NOT need to be a patron (but will need a free patreon account) to vote.
You will see this link for the next few days in case anyone have missed it.

The little book servant nearby felt thather beloved pet had did her proud and said in a gloating manner, “How aboutnow? My Xiao Xue is right here. Can you tame her?”
“Of course!” Cheng Xiao Xiao looked atthe snow leopard cub full of interest. Truth be told, the mighty and cute snowleopard made her heart itched. She certainly wouldn’t mind having a group ofthese herself!
“Well then hurry up!”
The little book servant might looknonchalant, the scholar beauty, on the other hand, had on her a much moreserious look. She looked intently at Cheng Xiao Xiao and had a bad feeling.
“I can tame her alright, but I have tobe upfront about something!” Cheng Xiao Xiao, finally looking away from thesnow leopard, and smiling brightly at the mistress and her book servant, said, “Theway I tame them is not the same as yours. Once I have tamed them, they willonly recognize me as their mistress. Unless I gift them away, otherwise, nobodycan take them from me. You sure you want me to tame her now?”\n“You mean to tell me that once you’vetamed Xiao Xue, she will only listen to you? She will just ignore me?” Thelittle book servants eyes widened with a look of disbelief on her.
Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled and nodded. Shethen turned to look at the scholar beauty and in a challenging tone, “Bigsister scholar, what are your thoughts?”
“I don’t believe it!” shouted the littlebook servant loudly. “Mistress, let have her try it! I don’t believer Xiao Xuewon’t listen to me again! I don’t believe it!”
“Miss Jun’er, whether you believe it ornot is a different story. What if I am able to tame she, and your Xiao Xue turnedinto my Xiao Xue. Are you going to fight me for her?”
“You tame! You tame her now! Right now!I want to see how you tame her! Xiao Xue won’t listen to you! No way!”
Listening her childish words, Cheng XiaoXiao couldn’t help but started laughing. The scholar beauty also shook and headand laughed helplessly, “Jun’er, it’s not appropriate to talk like that. Andyou can’t cry if you lose.”
“Mistress, I haven’t cried in a longtime. Don’t embarrass me, okay?”
The little book servant lowered herhead, embarrassed. She then looked back up to Cheng Xiao Xiao and said, “MissCheng, you try. Let’s see if Xiao Xue will listen to you.”
“Okay, Miss Jun’er, you’ve been askingme repeatedly to tame the snow leopard. When she became mine, I am notreturning her even if you cry!”
Soon as she finished talking, sheapproached the snow leopard quickly and before she could back away, she shoutedat it coldly, “Collect!”
In the next moment, under the gaze ofthe scholar beauty and her servant girl, the snow leopard disappeared. Theydidn’t even see how it disappeared. Dumbfounded, the little book servant asked,“Where’s Xiao Xue? Where did she go?”\nThe scholar beauty furrowed herbeautifully arched brows and looked around subtly. She didn’t see the snowleopard anywhere, as though it had really disappeared into thin air.
“You didn’t just hide Xiao Xue, didyou?” The little book servant thought of one possibility. She looked up anddown Cheng Xiao Xiao trying to see where she could have hid the snow leopard.
Cheng Xiao Xiao stood therenonchalantly, letting her look all she wants. She let her circled her a timesbefore she smiled and asked, “Have you find it yet?”
“This, this is impossible! You don’teven have a mystical beast sachet, where did you put Xiao Xue?”  The little book servant turned to look at hermistress, “Mistress, where did Miss Cheng place Xiao Xue?”
“If you don’t know, I don’t know either.You are right that little sister Xiao Xiao did not have a mystical beastsachet. Only she has the answer to your question!”
There were sparkles in the scholarbeauty’s eyes, “Little sister Xiao Xiao, is it now time to make Xiao Xuereappear?”
