Chapter 355: Chapter 355: Zi Ran: Xiao Ye, Let Me Use It! (Please Follow)

After the hot spring incident, Ziran had already started to see Xiao Ye as a peer in her heart, but it was just an ordinary friendship—there was not a single trace of personal feelings mixed in.

But now, after hearing Xiao Ye’s name from Yunxi again and again, a curiosity about Xiao Ye had started to grow inside her.

Xiao Ye’s name made Yunxi blush, Yunxi’s figure had improved, and that was related to Xiao Ye too, as if everything somehow tied back to him. On top of that, Xiao Ye had produced some incredibly precious Venerable Level Enlightenment Tea and solved Yunxi’s template problem—these two things made him all the more mysterious.

He was like some rare, high-end treasure, the kind of thing that sparked an irresistible urge to go find out more.

Ziran glanced over at Yunxi’s proud figure, compared it with her own, and realized Yunxi’s was a whole size bigger. After just giving her a hands-on check, she could tell that Xiaoxi wasn’t wearing any kind of bra—it was the real deal, solid foundations, no padding at all.

"Xiaoxi, as far as I know, Xiao Ye is a real pro at massages. Is your awesome figure because you stripped down and let Xiao Ye massage that part of you?" Ziran asked.

Yunxi’s mouth twitched as she replied, "You really think I’m the type of girl who loves stripping down and showing off her body to a guy?"

Ziran shook her head, "Nope."

Yunxi’s tone was firm as she said, "Exactly, so that’s settled. My new and improved figure isn’t because of a massage; it’s for other reasons. If you wanna know exactly how, go ask him yourself."

This time, Ziran was full of curiosity about Xiao Ye and said, "I’m definitely going to find him!"

A weird look appeared in Yunxi’s beautiful eyes as she said, "Yeah, you should let him check your body. Who knows, maybe your narcissism and that freakish fetish of yours is actually some kind of physical defect."

"???" Ziran was surprised, pointing at herself, incredulous, "Me, Ziran, have a physical defect?"

Yunxi nodded, "Yup, stuff like that you can’t feel on your own. You need a real pro to spot it."

Ziran thought it made sense, "Now that you say it, I probably should go find him!"

Yunxi said, "That’s right."

Ziran immediately turned and left, without a trace of reluctance, as if she’d made up her mind. Her eyes were full of determination as she opened the door and marched out.

Yunxi straightened up her messed-up robes, pressed her chest, and thought to herself, *Ziran’s hands don’t feel nearly as good as Xiao Ye’s massages.*

Out of nowhere, Yunxi had the urge to go find Xiao Ye again and have him give her a full-body massage.

Ever since last time—just five or six days ago—when Xiao Ye had fixed up her body flaw with a massage, her emotional sensors were going a bit numb again.

*Her template problem wasn’t solved—it was just a temporary fix for a physical defect.*

*Every now and then, she needed to look for Xiao Ye for a tune-up.*

*Counting the days, it was about time to go again.*

The living room.

After drinking the Venerable Level Enlightenment Tea, Yun Bing’s mind became clearer and more transparent, her thoughts surging, *slipping into a state of sudden enlightenment.*

Light still remained, but darkness was forever—turn yourself to darkness, use darkness to control the world.

Aura rippled from her body, and her whole being became deep and imposing.

In a flash, she opened her eyes, and her figure disappeared without a trace.

Xiao Ye, who’d had his head resting on those fair, long legs, suddenly lost his pillow and dropped weightlessly onto the couch.

"Where’s Yun Bing? Where’d she go?" he asked, looking all around but not seeing a trace of her.

Qin Xi’Er shook her head, "No idea, she just vanished."

Huangfu Xiangling let out a startled squeal, "Ah!"

"My body’s not listening to me, I can’t move!"

Qin Xi’Er blinked in confusion, "You seem fine, how can you not move?"

Huangfu Xiangling sounded a bit panicked, "I’m serious, I’m not messing with you guys."

She did some weird move, did a backflip over the couch, her legs in a split under her white skirt, landing face-down in a perfect split.

Otherwise known as a full split.

"Ow, my butt hurts! Xiao Ye, help me!" she called.

Xiao Ye leaned in, sensing Yun Bing’s aura in Huangfu Xiangling’s shadow, and asked in surprise, "Sister Yun Bing, is this you messing around?"

A voice came from the shadow on the floor, "This is my newly realized Talent Skill, Shadow Control. I can become darkness, hide in shadows, and use them to control solid things. Pretty awesome, right?"

It was Yun Bing’s voice.

Xiao Ye nodded, "That’s pretty cool!"

Huangfu Xiangling looked like she was about to cry, her pretty face totally innocent as she said, "Sister Yun Bing, can you let me up? The floor is freezing, and my butt’s numb. If I catch cold, I’ll get cramps!"

"Hehehe!" Yun Bing cackled strangely, "I’m coming out right now."

Huangfu Xiangling did a forward flip, bounced over Xiao Ye’s head, then landed with her legs together—thump—back onto the couch.

Xiao Ye’s eyes narrowed. That move was so wild her skirt totally flipped up when she turned. Even her cartoon undies flashed out for everyone to see, feast for the eyes.

When Huangfu Xiangling got back to her spot, Yun Bing finally crawled out of the shadow.

Xiao Ye could feel the Contractual Power in his body stirring, all sorts of insights pouring into his mind.

It was like some sort of innate skill he’d always had, but now fully in his hands.

[Shadow Control, become darkness, merge into shadows, use them to move, control physical things]

Xiao Ye smacked his lips—whenever a Beast Girl realized a Talent Skill, or a Summoned Beast did, he received feedback.

If a Beast Girl leveled up a skill, it meant he got the skill too.

Xiao Ye immediately used the [Shadow Control] ability, his body vanishing, turning into darkness and merging into Huangfu Xiangling’s shadow to experience the effect firsthand.

But the white-haired maiden suddenly darted off in a hurry, her legs squeezed together as she rushed to the bathroom.

*Inside the shadow, Xiao Ye thought, Crap, is she gonna pee?*

*He was a gentleman—he never snuck peeks. If he wanted to look, he’d do it openly.*

As soon as she closed the door, Xiao Ye teleported back to the living room.

When he appeared out of the darkness, he saw Yun Bing sitting on the sofa, looking miserable and sighing.

Xiao Ye felt a pang in his chest, *feeling unsettled inside,* so he stepped forward and asked, "What’s up with you?"

Yun Bing sighed and said, "Doesn’t matter how many Talent Skills you have, they only work if your Cultivation Realm is high."

"Now that my template’s upgraded, the resources I need to cultivate went up by more than ten times what I needed before. I don’t have any Crystal Cores, so I can’t level up."

Xiao Ye frowned. That really was a problem.

For Venerable Realm cultivation, what you needed was Venerable Realm Crystal Cores. But who had that many lying around? Just to go from Venerable Tier One up to Perfection, you needed 150 Venerable Realm Crystal Cores.

*But if Yun Bing leveled up,* the feedback he’d get from her would blow away what he got from the other Beast Girls. *Just one breakthrough from her could probably push his own realm up several ranks!*

"I’ll figure something out," Xiao Ye said comfortingly.

Yun Bing rolled her eyes, "You’re just at Venerable Realm, you’re not even a Great Venerable yet, what solution could you have? Up against the Venerable Realm, you’re helpless."

Xiao Ye grinned, "No, with you at Venerable Realm, I can do anything. Really, anything."

Yun Bing’s pretty face flushed, and she scolded, "Blech, you perv!"

At that moment, Ziran came out from the bedroom, grabbed Xiao Ye’s hand, and started dragging him toward another bedroom, saying,

"Xiaobing, I’m borrowing your husband for a bit—I’ll give him right back."

Yun Bing was shocked, "Ziran, you really don’t see yourself as an outsider, huh? Borrowing a husband? You’re gonna—"

She didn’t even finish talking before Ziran had already locked the bedroom door tight.
