Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat!-Chapter 222 - 3: The Unhinged Little Junior Sister Refuses to Be Cannon Fodder (3)
"Uh, let me check... oh, found it. This is called a Seven Yuan Fine Dog. In this world, everything is valued by ’Yuan.’ Things like ’Three Yuan’ and ’Five Yuan,’ odd numbers go up, and the bigger the number, the cooler it is. Your dog is Seven Yuan, which is quite cool."
Jiang Lai reached out to it, and the dim-witted fine dog wagged its tail and rushed over, affectionately nuzzling Jiang Lai’s palm.
The fur was very fine and short, with a smooth texture that felt alright.
"What’s the cool part about it?"
"Its nose is extremely sensitive; it can sniff out the attributes of all things in the world. It’ll be much easier for you to find things with it around in the future."
"Oh, it’s like a fine dog detector."
"You could say that."
Little Buding felt a bit guilty. After all, this thing didn’t seem particularly smart, not as good as pulling a useful skill for self-defense by himself.
But Jiang Lai seemed to quite like it. He casually tossed the ring from his finger, and after the fine dog clumsily pounced a few times, it shot out, quickly retrieving the ring and placing it steadily in Jiang Lai’s hand.
"Good dog."
"Give it a name. After all, it’s already made a contract with you."
"Contract? When was it made?"
As he spoke, Jiang Lai looked at his own wrist and, sure enough, in addition to a snake, there was also a dog’s pattern.
"It automatically signed when you pulled it. The magic pet contract is beneficial for you. It can help you withstand damage, the more the better."
"Then let’s call it Pudding."
Little Buding was silent for a moment.
"If you think naming a dog after me will make me angry, then you’re sorely mistaken."
"Mhm, I knew you’d be magnanimous. Come here, Pudding."
Just as Jiang Lai extended his hand, the fine dog immediately placed its head on her palm. Its bell-like eyes were staring at her, and with its long tongue hanging from its mouth, it looked like an idiot no matter how one saw it. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Looking at the two magic pets in her hands, a half-cooked black snake and a dim-witted fine dog, Jiang Lai summoned them back for recuperation.
She had to think of a way to get some medicine to heal the black snake. If a magic pet dies, it could potentially harm its owner.
After all the competitions ended, the results were also finalized.
Jiang Lai, unsurprisingly, entered the Tiangang Sect, becoming the first disciple to join the Tiangang Sect in three years.
This led to Jiang Lai carrying his bag to the mountain summit, only to see five people standing neatly at the gate to welcome him, causing an oddly pampered sensation to surge in his heart.
The old man in the lead was probably the sect leader of the Tiangang Sect. Seeing Jiang Lai, his eyes seemed to glow with excitement, eagerly stepping forward like an old pervert about to abduct a child.
"It’s really a little girl, and she’s quite pretty!"
The old man rubbed his hands, continuously sizing up Jiang Lai, stepping forward to ask.
"You’re Jiang Lai, right?"
"Yes, disciple Jiang Lai greets Master."
"Good, good, no need for formalities, no need for formalities. How many years has it been? Over ten years! Finally, this mountain isn’t a monk temple anymore. Come, come, come, quickly meet your senior brothers."
Jiang Lai glanced over, and the four cannon fodder stood neatly there, just like in the story. The senior brother Qi Junyi, who secretly admired the female protagonist, was the most handsome, tall, with long legs, wearing all black, looking particularly stable and cold.
The second senior brother Wu Lie didn’t tie his hair, with half his face covered by it, only exposing a cold eye, his face all screaming ’keep away.’
The third senior brother Hu Mang’s gaze kept drifting towards Jiang Lai. In the story, Hu Mang had a crush at first sight with the original protagonist, but the original protagonist felt extremely repulsed by him, leading Hu Mang to be heartbroken for a long time, falling into a silent crush.
Jiang Lai smiled at him, her fair and delicate face looking particularly vibrant. Hu Mang blushed to the roots of his ears, with no idea where to place his hands.
The last one was the fourth senior brother Zhao Yiqian, who entered three years ago. He loved collecting rare curiosities and was a true stingy miser but quite generous among his fellow sect members, often sharing things he didn’t want himself.
After greeting them one by one, the master instructed the senior brother to let Jiang Lai familiarize herself with the environment.
After making a round, Jiang Lai finally realized why all the cultivation disciples avoided the Tiangang Sect. The mountain itself was quite large, taking over an hour to fully walk around, but the spiritual power on the mountain was extremely thin, even less than at the foot of the mountain. Coming here for cultivation slowed progress significantly, and there weren’t many stellar figures within the sect, with resources being extremely scarce, left only with leftovers from other sects.
No wonder the original protagonist had wanted to fight tooth and nail against coming to the Tiangang Sect, even stirring up the Three Sects, and as expected, angered the sect leader of the Sun and Moon Sect, leading to being thrown into the Tiangang Sect despite quite strong cultivation.
In the Tiangang Sect, Jiang Lai lamented, finding fault in everyone.
The four senior brothers, considering she was a girl, kept letting her off, treating her quite well all along.
Unfortunately, the original protagonist aimed too high, hoping to stand out through sect tests to leave Tiangang Sect and enter the Sun and Moon Sect, ending up pleasing neither side and becoming widely hated in the end.
Seeing Jiang Lai deep in thought, the senior brother thought she, like other cultivation disciples, didn’t want to be a disciple of Tiangang Sect, leading him to speak a bit colder.
"This will be your place from now on. Every morning at 3 a.m., get up to cultivate, and don’t be late or leave early. This is your gate flag. Remember to keep it with you and don’t lose it."
He said while throwing over a black jade pendant, which Jiang Lai caught, smiling at him.
"Senior brother, will I be living in such a big house alone?"
The courtyard before her looked big enough for four generations of a family to live comfortably.
"Our sect lacks nothing but living space. Your clothes aren’t ready yet, and once they are, I’ll bring them over."
After saying this, the senior brother turned and left.
As soon as he left, the fine dog that had been hiding in the pattern couldn’t help but emerge. As soon as it landed, it eagerly began sniffing around the courtyard.
Just when Jiang Lai thought it would discover some rare treasure somewhere, the fine dog stopped by a tree, lifted its hind leg, and peed.
"..."
What a piece of trash.
At dinner, since there weren’t many people in Tiangang Sect, there were no rules. Everyone started eating once Jiang Lai sat down, with the third senior brother continuously serving her food.
"What’s your current cultivation level?"
The master looked at him with a smile, and if Jiang Lai didn’t know the plot, understanding that this old pervert was only interested in her special physique, she might have been deceived by him.
"Third-stage cultivation."
"Mhm, about the same as your fourth senior brother, but you’re still young. If you work hard, I’ll help you raise a stage within a year!"
"Thank you, Master."
After dinner, the third senior brother eagerly came over to inquire about her well-being.
"Are you getting used to the food? Are you missing anything in your living quarters?"
