CH 23.3

I Was Admitted To The Villain School Chapter 23.3

"So be it. You may enter. If you catch your cat, it will be returned to you. If you can't, your cat will stay in my infinite space and will be at my discretion."

Lin Xinghe hadn’t ever entered spaces that only existed in xianxia fiction, so she readily agreed.

"Okay."

Xie Wuan waved his sleeves.

Lin Xinghe disappeared from everyone's sight.

The melon eaters** who had been watching from a distance showed their 100% gossip and enthusiasm, and sunflower seeds and watermelon soda were being auctioned. There were also people selling single-use, soon-to-be expired thousand-meter-ear*** pills, which had never been more popular.

At that moment, Lin Xinghe had entered Xie Wuan's space, and it was unexpectedly awesome inside.

She looked around her: it was an infinite world. However, some places were foggy, and even when she walked right up to the fog, she couldn’t see through it. Lin Xinghe guessed that this was the rumored barrier, probably to prevent her from accessing private places. After all, infinite space was an artifact with a certain degree of privacy, just like a treasure house, so it needed protection.

Lin Xinghe didn't look around too much and began to call Xiao Xue Ji's name.

Not long after, she finally saw the figurines that Gu Taoyao was talking about. They were spectacularly and neatly arranged around an open space. There were human figures, aliens, and animals. All the corpses were well-preserved and stood in the open space like a work of art.

When Lin Xinghe saw these figures, she was not afraid at all and even felt a little connection.

Probably because of a shared love for horror.

"Meow……"

That meow pulled back Lin Xinghe's thoughts. She quickly followed the sound and found Xiao Xue Ji. The cat-form was intact, but the belly was bulging, and there was an empty sack at its feet.

Lin Xinghe picked up Xiao Xue Ji and smelled her—there was a strange fragrance in her mouth.

She was taken aback.

"What did you eat?"

As soon as the words fell, she realized that she was in Xie Wuan's space, which meant he was probably monitoring their every move. She quickly shook her head at Xiao Xue Ji, motioning her not to speak.

Xiao Xue Ji was extremely clever and fully understood what Lin Xinghe meant. After only a few more meows, she cuddled in Lin Xinghe's arms obediently.

Lin Xinghe found Xiao Xue Ji—it was inconvenient to spend more time in other people's space.

Xie Wuan quickly let her out.

As soon as Lin Xinghe came out, she immediately apologized to Xie Wuan, saying that she was willing to use points to buy what Xiao Xue Ji ate in his space, and she could save up if it wasn't enough.

Unexpectedly, Xie Wuan glanced at her and his lip curled upwards slightly, hinting at the possibility of a smile. He drawled, "No need. You utter brave thoughts and enact brave actions. I appreciate your personality. What she ate was not expensive, it was just a Jinwudan****. By chance, she infiltrated into my personal space and located my Jinwudan… she and I are fated… the Jinwudan was useless to me, but your cat should manifest plentiful abilities after ingesting it…"

"What abilities?" Jinwudan or whatever it was sounded expensive.

"Creation."

After Xie Wuan finished speaking, he flew away on his sword.

The melon eaters saw that Lin Xinghe walked out of Xie Wuan's space unharmed, holding a cat in her arms. They also heard, with the help of the thousand-meter-ears, that she got some sort of powerful pill?

The crowd was in an uproar.

Lu Qin didn't have the money to buy the ears props, so she could only stand on tiptoe in the crowd and listen to other people's discussions. She didn’t understand what they were talking about, and all she saw was Xie Wuan flying away on his sword.

She was waiting for Lin Xinghe to make an embarrassment of herself, but she only saw Lin Xinghe walking in front of the crowd with the seemingly sweet but actually cruel cat in her arms.

Someone asked her curiously, "What did it eat?"

"It's some kind of medicine pill, I don't know what it does, but Xie Wuan said something about creation..."

Saying that, she patted Xiao Xue Ji lightly.

The cute cat jumped to the ground and turned into a ferocious lion.

Lin Xinghe appeared surprised and asked, "Xiao Xue Ji, can you change anything else?"

Xiao Xue Ji quickly turned into other animals and even humanoids, accurately replicating the figures in Xie Wuan's space.

The crowd was stunned.

Lin Xinghe smiled lightly and said, "I'm really lucky that I bought this cat. It's really worth it."

The cat was much more than just worth buying!

The magic potion merchant was also among the melon eaters. After he lost the magic broom in the lottery, he told everyone that Lin Xinghe was really lucky. His magic broom was made with a lot of precious materials. Yes, Lin Xinghe was really very lucky.

Now that Lin Xinghe bought an ornamental pet cat in the Interplane Mall, it developed a new skill in less than a day. This EE went to the portable space-bubble of the top student of the xianxia department. When she came out, her ornamental, ordinary pet cat became able to transform into all sorts of mythical creatures. Paired with her magic broom, it would make Lin Xinghe undefeatable.

He admitted it.

Lin Xinghe was some fucking European Emperor!

Was there still time to buy a cat like hers?

TL Notes:

**Melon eaters is directly translated from Chinese, meaning people who eat watermelon and sit on the side to watch main events unfold. They enjoy gossiping about famous people.

***Thousand-meter-ears are similar to the extendable ears from Harry Potter. They allow people to hear things that are really far away.

****The characters for Jinwudan are literally translated as golden-crow core/pill. Because Lin Xinghe and most of the other characters don’t know what a Jinwudan is, it hasn’t yet been revealed in the novel either. Jinwu most likely comes from a mythical bird, a crow that represents the sun.
