Chapter 145
Compared to the previous tea bags, the one in Chen Huai'an's hand was truly a royal delicacy.
He immediately wrapped a packet of tea leaves in a frog-shaped tea bag to brew his tea.
Then he replaced his pillowcase with a lotus leaf cover and buried his head in it for a moment.
“Whoosh—! Inhale—!”
The soft fabric.
The enchanting fragrance~
Hiss~ So invigorating!!!
But something still felt a bit off.
Chen Huai'an hugged the pillow and pondered for a while before realizing—this pillow's material just wouldn’t do.
It needed to be changed!
“Qingran, I’m quite satisfied with your pillowcase and tea bag, but… do you have any softer fabrics? I also need pillow covers, bed sheets, table mats, head covers, scarves, gloves, masks…”
Chen Huai'an rambled on.
What Li Qingran heard was:
【Your intentions have been received, and they are quite good. I am very satisfied.】
That’s it?
Li Qingran gazed longingly into the void.
Is that all Master had to say?
Did he discover it or not?
He probably didn’t, otherwise, he would have said more.
Thinking this, Li Qingran felt a mix of relief and disappointment in her heart.
Her heart raced wildly.
Suddenly, she found herself curious about how Master would react once he learned those secrets.
What attitude would he take towards her?
“No, no, that’s too risky.”
She pinched her thigh, the sharp pain jolting her dazed mind back to reality. She kept reminding herself: such thoughts are unhealthy, inappropriate, and disrespectful to Master. Be careful, or you might ruin the master-disciple relationship.
To avoid Master asking any strange questions, Li Qingran quickly changed the subject.
“Master, we received a message from Sect Leader Su. He has informed other sects about the spread of demonic cultivation. Later, both the Dan Sect and Lingxi Valley discovered disciples practicing demonic arts. With these two sects announcing it to the world, now all the sects in the Cangyun Realm are conducting strict self-examinations. All disciples who practiced demonic arts have been captured.”
Li Qingran looked at the void with admiration and reverence.
This is her Master.
Without a doubt, Sect Leader Su was quite unreliable, but Master’s ability to utilize the unreliable Su to create a series of chain reactions that made the unreliable situation reliable was impressive.
Is this what it means to know how to use people?
She wondered when Master would use her.
【What about Qingyun Sect?】
Chen Huai'an recalled having seen a demonic cultivator from Qingyun Sect long ago and casually asked.
“Qingyun Sect has also captured disciples practicing demonic arts,” Li Qingran replied.
“Didn’t expect Qingyun Sect to be so obedient,” Chen Huai'an shook his head.
He hadn’t thought Qingyun Sect would be able to uncover the hidden demonic cultivators.
After all, that sect gave him the impression of being excessively arrogant.
If it weren’t for Li Qingran and the safety of the Sword Pavilion in the Central State’s secret realm, he wouldn’t have bothered to remind Qingyun Sect.
He opened the main quest to check Li Qingran’s survival rate.
By now, the demonic cultivators’ plans should have been disrupted, and Li Qingran’s survival rate should have increased.
However…
【Li Qingran’s quest survival rate: 62%】
【Heavenly Mechanism Hint 2: A large number of demonic cultivators and some demonic beasts will appear in the Central State’s secret realm.】
“That can’t be right! Why is the survival rate still so low?”
Chen Huai'an frowned.
The 1% increase in survival rate was due to Li Qingran’s cultivation progress.
The Heavenly Mechanism Hint 2 hadn’t changed, which was a bit strange.
Could it be that the demonic sect’s plan wasn’t for these demonic cultivators to turn against them in the Central State’s secret realm?
“I’ll use the Heavenly Mechanism Hint again tonight, and every day until the Central State’s secret realm begins. I refuse to believe it!” Chen Huai'an’s expression darkened.
Tonight, he would directly deduce the plans of the demonic cultivators in the Cangyun Realm.
As for the loss of fortune?
Heh~
Just a bit of fortune.
He was currently residing in a Supreme VIP room with walls 15 meters thick made of alloy.
Could such an impressive room really be blown up?
【Ding ding ding—!】
A ringing sound echoed; it was the public phone in the room.
Chen Huai'an got up to answer the phone but tripped and fell flat on the ground.
…
“You’re saying you want to use KSC-01 the teddy bear and KSC-02 the dragon sniper for a live stream?” Zhao Ying stared at the video of Chen Huai'an, who was now bleeding from his nose, deep in thought.
A general-level resurrector, classified as A-level containment, had just tripped over flat ground?! And managed to break his nose in the process…
If it weren’t happening right in front of her, who would believe it?
“Exactly.” Chen Huai'an nodded, his broken nose gradually healing. He covered his nose and spoke in a muffled voice, “That baby bear and the lobster aren’t obedient, right? You let them stay with me, and I’ll make sure they behave and help you with tasks. All the earnings from the live stream will be mine. How about that?”
Zhao Ying seriously considered Chen Huai'an’s proposal.
The resurgence of spiritual energy and the appearance of monsters could no longer be hidden. The Demon-Slaying Division and the families representing the authorities wanted the public to quickly accept this reality rather than live in endless panic.
Live streaming—balancing entertainment and education—would make it easier for people to accept.
It seemed quite feasible…
As for why Chen Huai'an needed money.
Luo Caihu had already explained the reason to her.
Chen Huai'an had a fear of financial inadequacy!
She could totally understand that!
Resurrectors all had their quirks.
For instance, she had a habit of electrocuting herself with a stun baton; if she didn’t do it a few times a day, she felt uncomfortable all over.
And it had to be on some sensitive areas to feel right; only after that could she sleep well.
“Alright, I’ll arrange for KSC-01 and KSC-02 to move in with you right away.”
Zhao Ying nodded, hesitated for a moment, then warned with concern, “Just be gentle with them…”
“Don’t worry, I get along well with them.”
“Do you have any other requests?”
Chen Huai'an thought for a moment and raised a finger: “Yes, I do! Get me a silicone pillow, the kind that feels like skin and is fully filled with silicone…”
Zhao Ying: “Huh?”
Chen Huai'an: “Well, I have trouble sleeping, and I like to hit the teddy bear and munch on the lobster, so I need to ensure my sleep quality!”
Zhao Ying: “…”
…
…

Chapter 155: So Handsome
“Babybear, today’s live stream is crucial. I hope you play your role as a punching bag well and don’t let me down.”
“Mr. Lobster King, I know you’re not too fond of me, but I hope every blind shot I take hits the target. Otherwise, I’ll shove your barrel into your scope!”
Chen Huai'an draped his left arm over the strawberry bear’s shoulder while gripping the barrel of the dragon sniper with his right hand.
After some friendly exchanges, the bear and the sniper reached a temporary ideological consensus with him.
“Let me introduce you; this is Ba Ji and Xiao Qing, your friends. Let’s all get along well. Anyone who dares to stir trouble, I’ll take care of them.”
The teddy bear looked at Ba Ji and Xiao Qing, its big, round eyes sparkling: This cat and fish must be very important to Zero. I’ll find a chance to take them out, and then Zero will definitely be heartbroken.
The dragon sniper let out a disdainful chuckle.
What cat and fish? One shot each.
Ba Ji glanced at the friendly-looking bear and lobster and curled its lip.
Just a stuffed bear with a spirit and a fire stick.
The former was like a puppet with autonomous control.
The latter was just a stick with a spirit, and it dared to dream of befriending the ancient beast of chaos?
Heh~
But for the sake of the big shot, let’s give them a chance.
Xiao Qing: Boop boop boop…
After calming down all the actors, Chen Huai'an felt confident.
He now had a cat that could do flips, a fish that could stand on water, a teddy bear that could punch through walls, and a sniper that could be petted. Such a lineup would be a total knockout in the pet influencer market.
He could almost see countless bills waving at him.
