Every Day I’m Reforming My Disciple [Transmigration into a Book] - Chapter 11
“Plot completion progress bar +1. Total progress: five percent. Congratulations, Host, you may ask the system one question!”
The wound on Han Le’s back throbbed and tore with pain. The surroundings were dim, filled with some unknown sticky liquid and a foul stench, because she was inside a certain monster’s body.
“Any question is fine?”
“Yes, Host.”
“At what stage was the female lead reborn?” Han Le blurted out.
The system answered just as cleanly and neatly. “When the original owner dug out her heart.”
Sure enough.
No wonder the first thing she did after rebirth was kill Han Le in the same way.
“Can I know the female lead’s current hatred value toward me?”
“Sorry, Host. The system is temporarily unable to answer your question…”
Fine. Han Le asked again, “When can I ask another question next time?”
The system explained, “When the ones digit of your progress bar is five, you may ask the system any question. When the ones digit is zero—that is, when it reaches a round number—the Host will obtain three items.”
“Items? What do they do?”
“Items drop randomly. When Host’s progress bar reaches a round number, you will naturally know.”
A faint sound of breathing came from beside her. Han Le immediately closed her eyes and maintained the same posture she had been in when swallowed, pretending to be dead.
The breathing grew closer and closer.
“Han Le.”
It was the female lead’s voice.
Han Le did not react and continued playing dead, wanting to know what the female lead would do next.
Han Qu stood beside her. Her gaze fell on the torn wound on Han Le’s back. Her black eyes were deep and bottomless, and no one knew what she was thinking.
There was no movement for a long time. Han Le was lying on her stomach, her face pressed against some piece of the monster’s flesh. Waves of sour stench drilled into her nose. Just as she was considering whether she should wake up, cold fingertips suddenly touched her wound.
Tch.
Han Le endured it and did not make a sound.
Had her little disciple finally been moved and unable to resist healing her?
It seemed her previous attempts at reforming her had been somewhat useful!!!!
The fingers gently brushed over the wound, then suddenly pressed down hard. Han Le trembled violently, opened her eyes, and jumped up, meeting the female lead’s dark eyes.
“Master is awake?” Her tone was faint, as if she had long since discovered that Han Le was pretending to be dead.
Han Le felt somewhat awkward and avoided her gaze. “Mm.”
As soon as the word fell, the surroundings suddenly shook violently. The ground beneath them flipped into the sky, spinning three hundred and sixty degrees.
Han Le immediately grabbed the female lead’s hand and pulled her to her side. Her body swayed and fell into Han Qu’s arms.
The monster seemed to be rolling violently. Even the female lead’s figure only remained steady for a few seconds before they began falling, rolling, and crashing without any sense of direction inside the monster’s body.
Han Le immediately wrapped both arms tightly around Han Qu’s waist. Seeing the other woman’s body clearly tense, she raised her head.
“Don’t be afraid. Nothing will happen.”
Han Qu: “……”
As long as the female lead was here, the halo was here. What was there to fear from a little danger?
Han Le hugged Han Qu’s waist even harder, almost tying herself firmly to the other woman’s body.
Han Qu could have scratched through the monster’s flesh and found a bone to support herself against in order to maintain balance. But Han Le’s actions were so incomprehensible that she lost all ability to act.
Her body stiffened. Her mind went blank for several seconds before a chill of disgust rose within her, and she wanted to strike Han Le away with one palm. But the next sentence was even more unexpected, making her heartbeat seem to explode and then drop with a thud. Immediately after, came the feeling that her waist was being squeezed so tightly she could barely breathe.
The monster finally stopped moving. After the earth-shaking turmoil came a dizziness that made the world spin.
The two of them had rolled to some unknown part of the monster’s body. Han Qu, irritated and flustered, wanted to push the other woman away.
But Han Le showed no intention of letting go. Her head was buried against Han Qu’s chest, and her muffled voice sounded.
“Be good. Don’t move. Let Master recover for a moment.”
Han Qu’s raised hand froze in midair.
There had been such a good opportunity just now. Why had she not taken the chance to kill her?
Now she was even humiliating her like this.
A sharp light appeared in her black eyes. Her lips pressed tightly together…
Then she closed her eyes.
There was a faint fragrance on the female lead’s body. It smelled nice. More importantly, in this disgusting environment, it was simply the perfect medicine for relieving dizziness and nausea.
Perhaps just now, because she had felt so awful, all Han Le had thought about was using the scent on the female lead’s body to ease herself. Only after moving away did she realize that the place where she had buried her entire face was actually Han Qu’s chest…
No wonder it had been so excessively soft.
Han Le raised her head and looked at the female lead, feeling guilty like a thief.
“Master, it is time to get out.” Her voice was steady in a somewhat frightening way.
Before Han Le could understand what she meant, Han Qu pushed her away all at once. Spiritual energy surged violently around them, all gathering on the person before her. In the dim space, a huge arc of light suddenly flashed. The monster was caught off guard and had its belly split open. Blood splashed all over Han Le.
She lowered her head. Beneath her was shallow stream water. She was standing on large and small warm pebbles. Her legs felt a little weak, so she simply sat down directly.
Her mind was in chaos, uneasy and anxious. Why had the female lead suddenly become so powerful? Wasn’t it said that anyone who entered Mount Li would have their cultivation suppressed by seventy percent? Why did she feel that the female lead just now had been even stronger than Han Le at her peak?
The other woman was walking toward her. Han Le felt somewhat nervous.
“I didn’t expect this monster to be so unable to withstand a single blow. Don’t you agree, hm?”
The rising final syllable made one’s heart tremble with fear. Han Le abruptly stood up. The lower half of her clothes was soaked by the stream, while the upper half was drenched in blood.
Han Qu silently turned around. The other woman’s voice came from behind her.
“It is Disciple who is powerful.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes.” The female lead had her back to Han Le, so Han Le could not tell what expression she wore.
The original owner had a storage bracelet. Seeing that the female lead also had blood on her, especially on her shoulder where there was a large patch of red from the blood Han Le had spat earlier, Han Le said, “Do you have a change of clothes? I have—”
“No need. Has Master forgotten that my storage bracelet was given by you?” She raised her hand, showing the silver bracelet on her wrist. It had several damaged spots.
They were surrounded by forest. Insects and birds called around them, and rare flowers and strange grasses emitted faint fragrances.
Han Le changed into a dark red outfit. The wound on her back still hurt a little, but it was not serious. She saw that the female lead was still wearing the same clothes as before, except there were no bloodstains or dirt on them now. She must have changed into an identical set.
Han Le wanted to ask what exactly had happened with the black demonic beast on the bridge, why it had opened its eyes when they passed by, and what the monster that swallowed them had been. But seeing the female lead’s indifferent expression, Han Le silently swallowed the questions back down.
The female lead’s steps suddenly stopped. “Master, what place is this?”
“Hm?” Han Le froze.
This was the first time since Han Qu’s rebirth that she had seen such a vivid expression on Han Le’s face.
For some reason, she felt a little satisfied.
She clenched her palm. “Let’s go.”
The surrounding spiritual energy fluctuated obviously. The trees in front of them suddenly began to move. Their speed was extremely fast, and in less than two seconds, they surrounded the two of them.
One tree that looked extremely old spoke in a human voice.
“Have the two young ladies come to retrieve the Immortal Healing Grass?”
Immortal Healing Grass. Wasn’t that the immortal herb Chen Haotian wanted to find for his little junior sister, the one said to bring people back to life?
Han Le did not know how to answer and looked toward the female lead, only to find that the other woman was looking at her.
Han Le turned back and faced the old tree. “No.”
“No?” The old tree suddenly laughed. “The two young ladies are quite good at going in circles with this old man.”
“Also?”
“Before you, several people also came looking for the immortal herb. This old man liked them very much, so I sent them to an especially fun place. Young ladies, would you like to go play there too?”
