Ning Xuan fainted, relieved.
When she woke again, Chen Nan was sitting by her bed, massaging her legs.
When Chen Nan saw Ning Xuan wake up, he exclaimed in pleasant surprise, "Contractor, you’re finally awake."
"Contractor, while you were unconscious, many people came to visit, but Housekeeper Yan turned them all away. However, someone from the information center came to run a check on you. They said your information needed to be updated," Chen Nan told Ning Xuan.
Ning Xuan glanced at the personal Light Computer on her wrist and opened it. Since her information had been updated, she was curious to see what her Spiritual Power Value was now.

Ning Xuan stared at her personal profile. Half a year ago, when she took the graduate joint exam, her spiritual power had just broken through to S-Class. In only six short months, her Spiritual Power Level had broken through again.
This was likely unprecedented in the nearly one-thousand-year history of the Federation Star Domain.
"How are Yun Han and Lan Xin?" Ning Xuan asked Chen Nan.
"Mrow..." A chubby little cat emerged from under the blanket covering her. The little white cat stretched out its tiny pink paws and climbed onto Ning Xuan, its crystal-clear, glass-like eyes fixed on her as it meowed insistently.
Ning Xuan looked at Little White, who had grown a size bigger and was brimming with Life Force. She smiled, picked him up, and said to Chen Nan, "Looks like Yun Han is fine."
"Yun Han’s fine, and Lan Xin is fine too. Lan Xin has already established a Spiritual Link Channel with you. Legally speaking, he is now your Contracted Slave. When they ran the tests on you the other day, they also tested him to register his information. Take a look, you should be able to see his profile now."
"Contractor, normally a Half-beastman wouldn’t even be eligible to have their genetic information recorded. But since Lan Xin established a Spiritual Link Channel with you, he was able to have his compatibility with you checked at the matching center. After the mainframe calculated it, his genetic compatibility with you is an incredible 90%!" Chen Nan said to Ning Xuan, his voice filled with disbelief.
Chen Nan’s reaction was understandable. The reason Half-beastmen weren’t eligible to have their genetic information recorded was that the Mutant Beast Gene in their blood was typically high, leading to universally low compatibility with Spirit Controllers.
Ning Xuan wasn’t surprised by this. Back on the New Star Body, she had forcibly linked with Lan Xin. Then, with the Vermilion Bird out of control, Lan Xin had also endured a baptism by her flames. Even if his genetic compatibility hadn’t been that high before, it certainly wouldn’t be low now.
Ning Xuan opened the Contractor and Contracted Slave interface and found Lan Xin’s page. Just like Yun Han’s, it was a red interface.

Ning Xuan stared at Lan Xin’s profile, finding it hard to believe. Judging solely by his Spiritual Power Value and other stats, his strength was comparable to Ying Yaoshi’s.
And yet, the combat power Lan Xin displayed in his daily life was nowhere near that level.
Ning Xuan quickly figured it out. Lan Xin had grown up in a slave school. To keep their minds placid and prevent their Mutated Values from spiraling out of control, they were educated from a young age to suppress their instincts, brainwashed into maintaining a state of peace. Having never been on a battlefield, his combat power was naturally low.
Furthermore, Lan Xin’s spiritual power hadn’t been this high originally. It had experienced a meteoric rise in the last six months due to a strange encounter. So, while his Spiritual Power Value had shot up, his combat power had yet to catch up.
’However, he has the strength. What he lacks is practical experience. He just needs to be tempered on the battlefield, and his combat power will increase quickly,’ Ning Xuan thought.
After learning that both Yun Han and Lan Xin were fine, Ning Xuan relaxed and began to inspect the condition of her own body.
The Vermilion Bird had caused a ruckus, but after realizing it couldn’t do anything about the blue energy, it had given up. However, after all its fussing, it had managed to snag a prime spot and settled in the space between Ning Xuan’s eyebrows. Now, whenever Ning Xuan circulated her spiritual power, she could sense the Little Red Bird residing there.
Once the Vermilion Bird settled down, the blue energy within her bloodline remained completely inert.
Since she no longer felt any discomfort in her body, Ning Xuan decided not to pay any more attention to the energy.
Inside the Purple Copper Mountain villa district
Feng Linran frowned as he looked at the pale-faced Yu Mingche, who was lying on a jade bed.
The little fox Ning Xuan had once held had now revealed its true form. Nine fluffy tails unfurled layer by layer, like an epiphyllum blooming under the moon.
Its silver-white fur shimmered with a stardust-like luster, each strand of hair like silk tempered by moonlight. The tip of the central tail glowed with a faint golden light, tracing trails of fire in the night air with every fluctuation of Spiritual Power. When it opened its eyes, its amber pupils had transformed into molten gold, and the corners of its eyes were adorned with three cinnabar markings, resembling ancient talismans.
The Nine-tailed Fox, now in its true form, leaped into the air and merged into Yu Mingche’s body.
Color gradually returned to Yu Mingche’s pale face, and his once-shriveled skin became full and nourished. Before, he had been like a painting; now, that painting was slowly coming to life, as if the person within it had awakened.
Feng Linran saw Yu Mingche’s eyelids twitch. He stepped forward, bent down, and called out, "My Lord, Lord General, are you awake?"
"Don’t bother me. Let me sleep first," a lazy voice rang out, though Yu Mingche’s lips hadn’t moved.
"Yes, My Lord." Feng Linran covered him with the blanket, bowed his head deeply in a salute, and respectfully withdrew. freёweɓnovel.com
After Feng Linran left, Yu Mingche stretched his arms and legs, raised a hand to touch his own face, and slowly opened his eyes. He stared blankly at a single point, as if trying to recall something, before letting out a sigh. "She’s so young!"
