Chapter 2073: Divine Punishment
As Ning Shu watched from the side, she was so anxious that she felt like she was on fire. Ning Shu also didn’t dare to ask Little Grass how it was going, fearing her question would distract Little Grass.
The lightning strikes were causing smoke to rise from Little Grass’s body.
Ning Shu didn’t know when exactly the divine punishment would end.
She didn’t even dare to cultivate as she was afraid that any fluctuation in the surrounding spirit energy would cause the divine punishment to change.
The thunder was so loud Ning Shu’s ears began to ring without stopping.
After a while, the thunder finally seemed to be weakening, and at the end, the dark clouds drifted away. Little Grass immediately floated to Ning Shu’s side, and cried out with “wa wa’s” to Ning Shu. “I was scared to death, waa wa…”
Ning Shu let out a sigh of relief, I was also scared to death.
Looking at the dark clouds slowly drifting away into the distance, Ning Shu was suddenly struck with a thought. She immediately mobilized the water dragon-shaped energy in her dantian.
Then she made it chase after the thunder clouds.
The golden dragon was reluctant, but was forced regardless to go underneath the thunder clouds by Ning Shu.
The dense thunder clouds seemed to have been provoked by the golden dragon and directly sent a bolt of lightning at the dragon, splitting the golden dragon into water droplets.
Then the thunder clouds arrogantly left.
The golden water droplets gradually condensed back into a water dragon that scuttled into Ning Shu’s dantian like it was fleeing for its life. The dragon then sank into the spiritual energy lake within the dantian and did not come out again.
Ning Shu: …
Such cowardly conduct.
Ning Shu asked Little Grass, “You got through the calamity. How are you feeling?”
“I feel like I got a lot stronger.” Little Grass whirled and transformed into a little loli in a floral dress who looked to be around four years old.
Little Grass wore a feminine dress made of fresh flowers. Its two fair and delicate arms were exposed, and its hair was loose. Her skin looked tender enough for water to be squeezed out if pinched.
Ning Shu was not a lolicon, but when she saw Little Grass, her heart began to stir. Little Grass was too cute, too beautiful.
Ning Shu reached out her hand and pinched Little Grass’s face. Gasp, it was so soft!
Ning Shu said with an incomparably serious expression, “Congratulations on being able to transform into a human form.”
“Thank you, Master…” Little Grass hugged Ning Shu’s leg and raised her head to look up at Ning Shu. Gasp, this gaze—Ning Shu’s heart was melting.
Little Grass was barefoot and had flower-shaped anklets on its ankles that made a tinkling sound as it walked.
Ning Shu reached out, lifted Little Grass’s hair up, and tied it with a hair tie.
Little Grass touched her hair, raised her head, and smiled sweetly at Ning Shu, revealing her little white teeth, “Thank you, Master.”
Ning Shu also smiled.The harvest was good this time.
Suddenly, she felt that Little Grass was just like her daughter. However, her task was already pretty much completed. She was probably going to leave this world soon.
Sigh…
Ning Shu took Little Grass to find Little Bean. She was ready to go back to the academy.
When Little Bean saw Little Grass, he stared blankly, then blushed bright red. He lowered his head and asked shyly, “Big Sister, who is this?”
“Little Grass.”
It was like Little Bean hadn’t heard clearly as he asked again. “Who?”
“Little Grass.”
Little Bean: …
No, I can’t…
So cute, but it wasn’t even a human.
Ning Shu unhurriedly walked back to the academy with the bunch of students.

#chiss’ comments: This arc was so enjoyable to translate. I still have one less chapter to go, but I can already relate to Ning Shu’s feelings…
