She is the Side Character! — Watch Her Change her fate!

Yan Zui felt that Che Ronggui was too annoying and shouted, ”Don’t come to the Spiritual Beast Peak anymore. It’s irritating to see you.”

Che Ronggui almost fell over, his face turning pale, then blue, then red, but he didn’t dare to ask why. He knew that even if he appealed to the Peak Master, it would be useless.

Yuan Tong became happy, grinning from ear to ear, ”Senior Sang Biao, mighty as always!”

Yan Zui glanced at Yuan Tong and rarely asked, ”What did he do to you?”

Driving Che Ronggui away was because he had previously noticed Yuan Tong was very disgusted and repulsed by him.

Yuan Tong counted as one of his loyal diners. She didn’t provide much experience points, but every time she did, it was at the maximum. She took great care of the spiritual beasts, spoke nicely, and often helped him with errands, handling tasks efficiently.

No one dislikes such an employee. Yes, he saw Yuan Tong as his employee.

”Senior, this guy has threatened and tempted me before, trying to get me to go with him. If he didn’t know I was doing tasks for you, I probably wouldn’t have been able to stay at the Spiritual Beast Peak.” Yuan Tong said angrily, sensing the gazes of Yan Zui and Ah Chen, she added, embarrassed, ”I’m sorry to make you laugh. I always lose control when I think about it.”

Yan Zui frowned; he always did his tasks alone and rarely interacted with the disciples of the Spiritual Beast Peak.

Unless he needed something from the base of the mountain, he would instruct a pleasing disciple to go down.

One errand runner is enough; he didn’t have that much to manage.

”If something like this happens again, let me know.”

His employee almost got taken advantage of; he must protect her.

He remembered there was someone else present and glanced unintentionally, seeing Ah Chen’s calm face. She didn’t seem frightened by this scene, and his heart unexpectedly felt relieved.

Strange.

Why should he care if a female cultivator is scared or not?

Thinking of himself as Sang Biao... cough, as Yan Zui, he had traversed to this world for many years, having explored outside and seen many things, but nothing could stir his emotions.

His heart set on accumulating cultivation, forming a human body to escape his cat form sooner. Even if he couldn’t return to his original world, life would be much more comfortable.

”Thank you, Senior!” Yuan Tong shouted. As expected, Senior Sang Biao was just a bit aloof, but what a good... No, cat, he was!

Ah Chen was amused by Yuan Tong’s antics, finding her quite interesting.

Now she understood why in the commissioner’s memory, Jin Congshuang couldn’t form a contract with a spiritual beast, mentioning that things here were not well.

”Thank you for your hospitality, Senior Sang Biao.” Ah Chen stood up, intending not to stay long.

She remembered that in the Linglong Space’s Spirit Field, there was some Cat Grass containing spiritual energy, aged for a long time, which should be beneficial for the cat. She dug some out, placed it in a box, and set it on the table.

”A little gift in return, your all-fish feast was delicious. I hope to taste it again next time.”

Initially wanting to say it was unnecessary to give him anything, Yan Zui swallowed his words, responding coldly with a hum.

If the other party wanted to come for a free meal, how could he refuse?

After all, it was a walking 100,000 experience points!

”You’re quite good.”

Feeling it was a bit stiff, Yan Zui added, ”You’re welcome anytime.”

Very polite, didn’t freeload.

Even if it was for the experience points, encountering such a reciprocal gesture made the heart feel much better.

After Ah Chen walked away for a while, Yan Zui prepared to put the box away, but he decided to take a look and was first stunned, then the smell of the box of Cat Grass evoked his cat form instincts, leading him to take a deep whiff.

Realizing what he was doing, he quickly looked around, relaxing a bit seeing no one had witnessed it.

[Master, save some for me.] Although Sang Biao couldn’t control the body, his soul could smell the Cat Grass’s aroma. He had never seen Cat Grass so fragrant and craved it desperately.

Yan Zui kept a straight face, [I’m not really a cat... don’t like Cat Grass.]

[That’s good...] Sang Biao felt happy, but before he could finish, Yan Zui spoke again.

[This Cat Grass is tens of thousands of years old, eating it will enhance cultivation. I’ll eat half and leave you the other half. Raising cultivation faster will help form a human body, and you can manage the cat form, eating as much Cat Grass as you want then.]

Unexpectedly, Pei Chen had such a good thing!

This Cat Grass was also edible for humans; it had reached the level of spiritual medicine, but it was more potent for cats.

[This means we owe her a favor.] Yan Zui remarked, [Next time she comes, I’ll make something even tastier for her and give her a jade token for protection. That should settle the debt.]

[Giving it away so easily, no wonder some disciples in the sect thought she was a pushover, taking advantage and then denying any benefit.]

Regarding Pei Chen, of course, it was about the Memory Stone, discussed privately among the spiritual beasts, through which Yan Zui learned.

He also found out Pei Chen had finally wised up, unwilling to be seen as a pushover and switched to feeding spiritual beasts.

She was truly a Money Scattering Child.

Recently, the spiritual beasts coming back from work were all discussing how Pei Chen gave them many elixirs, almost handing them out whenever they met.

Leaving the lake area that belonged to Yan Zui’s domain, many spiritual beasts gathered around Ah Chen again.

Ah Chen welcomed them all, taking out the jade bottle to provide a feeding spree.

As she was about to leave, there was even a spiritual beast nudging beside her, asking if she wanted to form a contract with a spirit pet.

Looking at their innocent big eyes, Ah Chen couldn’t help feeling moved, ”Do you really want to be my contracted spirit pets?”

Why refuse willingly offered spirit pets, after all, it seemed quite majestic.

Feeding them spiritual medicine, in return, they become her spirit pets; it seemed very reasonable.

All the spiritual beasts nodded, Ah Chen’s eyes curved into a smile, ”Then let’s form the contract.”

Upon speaking, all the present spiritual beasts wholeheartedly activated the spirit beast contract, and Ah Chen also activated it, establishing a link with them.

Under Yuan Tong’s unbelievable gaze, Ah Chen surprisingly established a successful connection with all the spiritual beasts present. This was known to be the most challenging step; if anyone had any reluctance, it could have failed.

The key point was that Senior Sister Pei was only at the Foundation Establishment Early Stage, yet her divine soul could withstand so many spirit beast contracts.

Could it be the legendary innate Spirit Beast Master talent?

Forming contracts with these spiritual beasts didn’t affect Ah Chen at all.

She opened her eyes, sensing Yuan Tong’s astonishment, and laughed happily, ”I didn’t expect to have a talent for contracting spiritual beasts.”

”Senior Sister Pei, you might very well have the legendary innate Spirit Beast Master talent!!” Yuan Tong quickly exclaimed, ”Are you feeling any discomfort?”

”No.”

”That explains it!” Yuan Tong was so excited her face turned red, ”Such a talent only existed in ancient times.”

There was another unsaid thought: even if Senior Sister Pei’s cultivation talent wasn’t great, possessing the Spirit Beast Master talent would ensure she wasn’t underestimated.

”Senior Sister Pei, do you need to report this to the sect? Or should it remain confidential?” Yuan Tong asked quietly.

If kept confidential, things would remain as they are; if reported to the sect, they’d need to discuss how to manage these spiritual beasts going forward.
