The next day, at dawn.
"Mmm~~meow!!!"
Qian Sui stretched out with a shallow meow, her pair of emerald eyes looking particularly bright in the dim storeroom.
Lying in the bamboo basket, Qian Sui stretched her whole cat backwards, arching into a crescent moon. As she exposed her soft belly, she also let out a heart-scratching soft meow.
After finishing stretching, Qian Sui jumped out of the basket. As soon as she landed, she looked towards another bamboo basket in the storeroom.
There was no sign of the white cat in the basket. Sensing with her spirit, that kitten's spirit went to the roof.
He's gone to practice his martial arts again!
What's the point of a spiritual cat practicing martial arts instead of properly collecting spiritual qi!
Although the kitten is extremely strong physically, which has caught her off guard before, as a proud Moon Shadow Black Eyes Golden Tiger,
how could she possibly admit this!
As she thought about this, Qian Sui walked out of the storeroom.
Qian Sui climbed up the cat climbing frame set up in the yard and went up to the roof. She squatted on the icy cold, dew-covered tiles.
As Qian Sui looked ahead, a white cat squatting on the eaves came into her view.
Despite the eaves being only as thick as an adult's wrist, the white cat stood steadily on it.
Although his posture was not rounded, just looking at his back gave the illusion of glimpsing at a fierce tiger.
His tail occasionally flicked, adding to the illusion of the laziness of a fierce tiger.
As Qian Sui looked at the white cat's back, she was stunned for a moment.
How come she never noticed before that there was such a good-looking cat in this world!
Du ke also noticed Qian Sui, but he didn't bother the aloof black cat much, only absorbing the sun's essence to refine into pills first.
As for swallowing the pills?
With a snap of his jaws, several pills had already slid down Du ke's throat.
As the medicine took effect, Du ke's eyes suddenly changed, becoming aggressive, like raging flames.
His body fluctuated irregularly, combining motion and stillness. Still like a fierce tiger, moving like a cheetah, Du ke demonstrated the Tiger-Leopard Stake externally, while internally his soul outlined a demon god figure.
At the same time, Du ke also subconsciously mobilized his own elemental qi, endowing the demon god figure with divine qi.
Just like that, the white cat practiced martial arts, the black cat watched on the side.
Neither bothered the other, both immersed in their own thoughts.
It wasn't until the sun had risen high at midday before Du ke finally stopped. He let out a long breath, changing the energy within him, and also walked over to Qian Sui.
"Um..."
Du ke smiled as he approached Qian Sui. His tail curled up and swayed, implying Du ke's thoughts were not entirely pure.
"About the matter of medicinal ingredients we talked about last night..."
Qian Sui came back to her senses, her expression indifferent as she silently watched Du ke.
Du ke's eyes darted around as his heart thumped loudly, what is this aloof black cat thinking again?
But a breakthrough was imminent, so he had to prepare the Extreme Border Dan made of quicksilver and silver marrow in advance. Otherwise, the vital essence contained in that bone might push him to the visceral realm.
Once inner strength is generated, wanting to refine quicksilver and silver marrow again would be impossible.
Martial arts progression, each realm is a mountain.
Once a mountain has been crossed, wanting to go back would be difficult!
"Meow!"
Qian Sui meowed softly, go on, what medicinal ingredients do you want?
Hearing Qian Sui agree, Du ke was overjoyed instantly, but still spoke politely, "Oh my, I'm really sorry to trouble you."
"Meow!"
Just say it if you want to, otherwise forget it.
"No, don't! I'll go get the list for you right away."
Du ke immediately jumped down from the roof, went to the storeroom, found a wooden plank, and started carving the list of medicinal ingredients on it with his claws as a makeshift brush.
Qian Sui waited on the roof for half a stick of incense before Du ke returned to the roof.
"Here, these are the medicinal ingredients I need."
Du ke gave the wooden plank to Qian Sui. When she took it and looked, her eyebrows shot up immediately.
100-year ginseng, bone-bursting grass, 50-year-old dragon bones...
Looking at the dazzling array of medicinal ingredients, most were related to bones and blood energy. There were both medicinal ingredients beneficial to bones and blood, as well as poisons that damaged blood and tore meridians.
"Please help me find them quickly, I need them urgently!"
Du ke put his paws together as he blinked playfully at Qian Sui. Qian Sui froze for a moment before immediately smacking the wooden plank into Du ke's face and jumping off the roof.
Du ke sniffed after being hit and wondered, "Is that agreement?"
"But why hit me?"
"Can't figure out the female cat's thoughts!"
Du ke sighed before immediately adding, "Girls are better, simple and straightforward thoughts, can tell with one look what they're thinking about."
...
In the front hall.
When passing through the door curtained with blue cloth, Qian Sui immediately swallowed the wooden plank engraved with medicinal ingredient names into her belly to keep it.
This ability was related to the Moon Shadow Black Eyes Golden Tiger's bloodline divine art. Her belly contained a space that, while not comparable to the Four-eared Brocade Thief's belly universe, could still hold some things.
Of course, the main things kept were sinister ghosts and evil spirits.
After all, with a tiger in her name, she naturally also had methods similar to controlling evil spirits.
However, fierce tigers controlling evil spirits helped themselves harm people, while Moon Shadow Black Eyes Golden Tigers did so to store food.
The two could not be talked about together.
Right after swallowing the plank, Old Li immediately looked over with a teasing expression and ridiculed, "Oh my, it seems my Qian Sui has been moved by worldly desires!"
Upon hearing this, two red clouds actually appeared on Qian Sui's fuzzy cat face.
She was clearly a black cat, yet could blush, truly sigh-inducing!
Seeing Qian Sui blushing, Old Li immediately laughed happily. But the next second, Qian Sui flicked her tail, flipping over the shelf against the wall.
With a loud crash, the utensils and farm tools flew everywhere, the cabinet nearly falling apart.
Old Li's expression immediately froze, "Ah, my young miss, I was just teasing you..."
Crash!
Another cabinet was flipped, and Old Li promptly shut up.
"Alright alright, I won't say anymore!"
Seeing Old Li stop talking, Qian Sui finally humphed before walking out of the shop.
When passing by the kennel, Shi San rushed out from inside, blocking Qian Sui.
Seeing this silly dog blocking her way, Qian Sui frowned. What was this silly dog trying to do?
Shi San lowered his head to reveal his tiger head hat, while continuously whimpering.
Look, the cat master gave the dog a tiger head hat!
You don't have one!
Understanding Shi San's whimpers, Qian Sui's expression gradually turned ugly.
Seeing Qian Sui's changing expression, Shi San immediately became ecstatic, bouncing his front legs as if performing a lion dance, swaying his body, putting on a smug appearance.
Then,
"Meow!"
Shi San was thrown into the water tub, somersaulting upside down into the water with his hind legs still twitching.
Qian Sui coldly snorted before walking out of the shop, blending into the pedestrian traffic.
Seeing Shi San tossed into the tub, Old Li hurriedly abandoned tidying up to run over and fish the dog out.
With a big bump swollen on his head, the dog looked at Old Li aggrievedly.
"Aiya, why did you provoke her!"
Old Li sighed, then went to find a towel to dry Shi San's fur.
Shi San let the old man dry his fur aggrievedly, but his mind was on something else.
That black cat actually attacked me?!
Not even my cat master has hit me before!
No, wait!
She must have been anxious to lash out at me!
Thinking this, Shi San's crumpled face smoothed out as he grinned foolishly.
That black cat is just jealous of me, jealous that I have the hat the cat master gave me while she doesn't!
Haha, you filthy black cat! Even if you beat me to death, it won't change the fact that you don't have the gift given by this noble cat!
Old Li, who was grooming the thirteenth cat, also blinked when he saw the dog's grinning mouth.
"Just now you were wronged, how did you become gleefully silly again?"
"Could it be that you were beaten silly?"
"Oh, what a troublemaker!"
............
On the roof,
Du ke was completely unaware of what was happening in the front hall. He just immersed his mind into his own black cauldron space, gazing at the skeleton inside.
"With Qian Sui finding me medicinal materials, refining the Extreme Mirror Pill is just a matter of time."
"What I need to do now is refine this bone, and advance my cultivation to the Great Perfection Stage!"
A flash of light glittered in the cat's eyes, and he couldn't help licking his lips in anticipation.
I wonder what kind of taste the pill refined from this bone will have!
ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System."

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. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
