Ye Chuan hadn’t even opened his mouth when Lilith took a few steps in a certain direction, her figure dissolving into the air as if melting away, leaving behind only a few faintly glowing purple butterflies fluttering briefly.
"What a mess."
In other words, his tenants would remain in this loli state for the next month?
Not that it would cause any real problems…
But Ye Chuan was furious!
"Whatever, let’s eat first." He gathered the little ones and led them to a nearby restaurant—since he was worried they’d be noisy, he even booked a private room.
Upon seeing so many children, the restaurant thoughtfully provided upgraded child seats with extra cushions.
"Waaah, your sister bit me~" While ordering, Lan Xiaoke pouted pitifully, her tiny fingers in her mouth as she blinked up at Ye Chuan with teary eyes.
"Ye Yue, that’s not okay. Apologize to Xiaoke," Ye Chuan said without looking up from the menu.
Little Ye Yue’s teeth had taken on a jagged, shark-like appearance, but at his words, they returned to normal. She tugged at his sleeve and mumbled, "Sorry."
Ye Yue had always been obedient to Ye Chuan—though her possessiveness was a bit much, especially now that she was in this childlike form, making it even more obvious.
"I forgive you," Lan Xiaoke huffed.
While Lan Xiaoke and Ye Yue squabbled, Luo Xi reached out with her small hands to help Ye Chuan set the tableware, and Bai Qianshuang leaned in to peek at the menu in his hands.
But stretching her neck seemed tiring, so she rested her chubby little face against his arm instead.
"What do you want to eat?"
"Everything," Bai Qianshuang blinked.
Well, Qianshuang had grown a bit more willful too—she wouldn’t have said something like that before.
She used to be a little more reserved.
"One of everything, please," Ye Chuan told the waiter.
The waiter froze for a few seconds. "Sir, this menu has quite a few dishes… and ordering everything would be quite expensive."
Ye Chuan pulled out a card and handed it over. "Just do it. Charge it now, and I want the food as fast as possible."
"Right away, sir." The waiter didn’t dare delay.
Soon, the table in the private room was laden with an array of dishes—fortunately, this was a high-end restaurant specializing in seafood and steak, so the variety wasn’t overwhelming.
"Yay!"
The little lolis immediately dug in.
None of them had particularly big appetites—except Bai Qianshuang. Maybe cultivators just had better digestion.
The higher the cultivation level—the bigger the appetite?
When it came to stomach capacity…
As they ate, Ye Chuan wiped their messy little faces.
"Did I just become a nanny?" he mused. He didn’t even have kids of his own, and here he was, already playing babysitter.
At least they weren’t infants—that would’ve been a real hassle.
"That Lilith…"
If he weren’t so outmatched, Ye Chuan would’ve loved to drag her over his knee and spank her.
Not that she’d done it on purpose—she’d just messed up a spell.
But where on earth had she learned a magic that turned young women into lolis?
After a quick lunch, Ye Chuan eyed their round little bellies and asked,
"Should we head home now?"
The little ones didn’t seem to object.
"Alright, let’s go."
Just as they were about to leave, however, a commotion erupted in the distance.
Ye Chuan glanced over and saw a rampaging monster loose on the streets.
Because of the unpredictable rifts, stray monsters occasionally wandered into the city—though they were usually swiftly hunted down and eliminated by the super-soldiers.
This one was a demon wolf. At the speed the super-soldiers moved, it’d be dead in under a minute.
The crowd had already scattered and hidden—clearly, this wasn’t their first rodeo.
Down the road, several motorcycles weaved through traffic at high speed.
A voice crackled over a walkie-talkie:
"Report—demon wolf spotted in the city center. Moving in for extermination."
"Permission granted. Proceed immediately."
"Copy that."
At the sight of the demon wolf, the motorcycles screeched to a halt, their riders—the super-soldier squad—quickly dismounting and gearing up.
But then, the squad leader spotted a little girl standing right in front of the demon wolf.
He also noticed a man and woman nearby, accompanied by several other little girls.
The leader immediately grabbed his walkie-talkie. "Emergency! Civilians haven’t evacuated—multiple children present!"
With that, he revved his engine and charged straight at the demon wolf.
"Wait, Captain, be careful!" His teammates shouted in alarm.
Faster!
Faster!!
The captain’s forehead beaded with sweat as he watched the demon wolf advance on the child. He knew how merciless these creatures were—one bite, and she’d be gone!
But then, something unbelievable happened.
The little girl, no older than five or six, raised a hand—and a sword nearly as tall as she was materialized in her grip.
With a single slash, a white sword aura tore through the air, distorting space itself—and the demon wolf was instantly obliterated!!!
Captain: "??"
His motorcycle skidded to a violent stop.
What the—
Was that kid a super-soldier? But how?! She couldn’t be more than a toddler, yet she just took out a demon wolf?!
The captain was stunned—and so were his teammates. They’d never seen a child this powerful before.
Even the youngest super-soldiers were in their teens, and none of them could solo a demon wolf!
"Wait, is that…?" The captain squinted at the woman standing beside the man.
She looked familiar.
Was that…
Miss Wang?
…
"All done, Ye Chuan." Bai Qianshuang dismissed her spirit sword and trotted back to him, tilting her head up expectantly, clearly fishing for praise.
"Impressive."
Ye Chuan already knew Bai Qianshuang’s strength—a single swing of her sword could annihilate tens of thousands of demon wolves—but perhaps her childlike state had made her even more prone to acting spoiled.
Bai Qianshuang’s ahoge perked up happily.
Meanwhile, Ye Chuan and the others had also noticed the super-soldiers in the distance.
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh.

and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!
he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it.
