With Benlian around, no one can bully the little one!

The languid red hydrangea lay dormant, numbly enduring the kittens' biting, scratching, and kicking. Why didn't it fight back? Well, with the oppressive aura of the Golden Lotus of Merit on one side, and its owner seemingly in seclusion cultivating, but actually subtly monitoring its every move with wisps of divine consciousness—could it fight back? How could it possibly resist? If it angered its owner, the consequences would surely be dire…

So be it. At worst, I'll just get drooled over by this little spirit beast. It's just curious for a short while; once it gets tired of playing with me, it'll discard me like trash... Waaah! This Red Embroidered Ball, one of the most precious innate spiritual treasures, was born with great merit and should have been treasured by some powerful being. But instead, it's been reduced to being a toy for a little spirit beast. Is this a sign of moral decay, or a world where the powerful bully the weak? Let the Red Embroidered Ball tell its story...

Hongjun, whose spiritual sense was being bombarded, was annoyed. He really didn't expect that this seemingly delicate and small innate spiritual treasure would be so noisy... no, so troublesome. If the little cat didn't have enough fun, it would be in for a world of trouble! However, the little Tongtian seemed to be having a lot of fun and probably wouldn't let go for a while. If he were to take it back, the little cat would probably be very unhappy.

The kitten was unaware that its older brother was plotting how to lock the noisy red embroidered ball in a dark room without disturbing it. Right now, it was contentedly using the ball as a small pillow, its little head resting on it, its paws tightly clutching the ball. Judging from its adorable expression, it clearly loved the ball… If it were forcibly taken away, what a fuss it would throw! No, it had to find the right moment… A wisp of Hongjun's divine sense circled around the kitten, transforming into an invisible hand that gently stroked its little ear. The kitten's fluffy ears twitched alertly, and its half-closed eyes widened slightly. The kitten warily surveyed its empty surroundings, feeling its hairs slowly standing on end…

What was that just now? Touching me??? The little cub, Tongtian, perked up its ears in fear, its pink paws instinctively extending their tiny claws, growling softly as it tried to shoo away what it couldn't see…

Get out of here! Don't you dare try to get your hands on my ball! That's mine!!!

A soft chuckle echoed in its ear, and the kitten froze instantly, its eyes darting about. It slowly arched its back, hissing incessantly, and cautiously surveyed its empty surroundings once more. Nothing... there was nothing there. Then... who was laughing just now?

The kitten shivered. This time, he clearly felt something unseen gently scratching his chin and pinching his pink paw pads. Seeing that the kitten didn't react at all (actually, it was scared), he thought the kitten had accepted his presence, so he picked him up and put him in his arms!

The kitten's fur stood on end, but it stubbornly refused to let go. It glanced helplessly at Red Embroidered Ball, a hint of fear flashing in its large, watery eyes. What, what had picked it up? It dared not think about it, it absolutely dared not think about it... If it wanted to kill itself, wouldn't that be easy?

The kitten's originally shrill meows gradually subsided, replaced by pitiful meows, weakly pleading for mercy and asking to be let go.

Hongjun looked puzzled, wondering why his kitten was suddenly so terrified. He stroked the kitten's head again, trying to soothe its frightened state. The kitten's aura swept over its entire body, especially lingering on its thick, furry belly. Sensing the malicious intent of the aura, the kitten stiffened, its fur standing on end. What to do? It seemed this filthy thing had its eye on it? No! Meow!

"Ball, I don't want it anymore, you can have it... Put me down... Meow!" The kitten was almost in tears, kicking and punching in a flurry of meows, just throwing a few punches at the air. Hongjun, seeing how lively the kitten was, thought it was having fun playing with him, so he simply poked its thick little belly. Hmm, as expected, it was quite easy to pet... Hmm, let me poke it again!

The kitten, caught off guard by the sudden belly touch, instantly panicked: "!!! Meow!!! There's something dirty!!!" Its fur bristled, and a pitiful howl pierced the sky. The kitten used its paws and legs to try to escape this terrifying embrace, but it was held firmly by a mysterious force. The kitten desperately tried to escape, even forgetting the red embroidered ball it had been clutching in its arms, its only thought was to leave this horrible place!

Red Embroidered Ball: "..." She glanced sympathetically at the kitten who was nearly driven mad with fear. Under its owner's command, the kitten obediently went to the dark room to shut itself away. Otherwise, what would it do? If its owner took action, the kitten would be dead!

Seeing that the plan had succeeded, Hongjun stopped holding onto the kitten, who looked like it was about to break. The kitten curled up helplessly in a ball, tears streaming down its face, wetting the fur on its chest. The fur was all matted together, and it kept shivering, looking like it was scared half to death!

Feeling guilty, she avoided the still-visible tear stains on the kitten's face, gently put the kitten down, sighed helplessly, and quietly disappeared from the spot, returning to her original body.

What a disaster! He actually scared Tongtian to tears. Oh dear, he didn't mean it. Looking at that little ball of fur still sobbing, he couldn't help but frown.

The kitten was terrified and didn't realize it was "safe" yet. It was just grieving. Jinlian's gentle aura enveloped the kitten, silently comforting it.

The kitten shivered, finally recovering. The next second, it jumped up and ran desperately towards Hongjun, meowing pitifully as it ran. Jinlian followed closely behind it and quietly delivered the kitten to Hongjun's side.

"Big brother, help, help me!" The kitten's series of meows successfully attracted Hongjun's attention. He opened his eyes and looked at the kitten's messy fur and teary eyes. He coughed a little guiltily.

Look how scared the little one is! It's his fault, he hit him too hard...

He lovingly picked up the kitten, cast a cleansing spell, and cleaned it thoroughly. The kitten, however, just kept sobbing in his arms, meowing softly as it recounted its encounter with the "dirty things." He tried to comfort it, but the kitten ignored him, silently curling up in his embrace. Afraid of being rejected and thrown out by its older brother, the kitten even tried to cling to his Taoist robe with its paws. The robe's material was very special, and its paws couldn't hold on at all. The kitten became even more upset, tears streaming down its face! Hongjun was heartbroken and could only use his spiritual power to constantly soothe the uneasy kitten, saying all sorts of kind words and even offering its own magical artifact as a toy. The kitten immediately cheered up, meowing and rubbing against its older brother's hand. Raising its little head, the kitten blinked its big eyes, and, now comforted, instinctively begged its older brother for its toy, the red embroidered ball.

Big brother, where's my ball? Tongtian wants to play with it!

Hongjun: "..." Want the Red Embroidered Ball? No way! It's all the Red Embroidered Ball's fault! If it hadn't been bombarding his spiritual consciousness with its incessant chatter, he wouldn't have thought of this trick, and his child wouldn't have been so frightened... It seems necessary to imprison the Red Embroidered Ball for thousands of years! Hongjun gritted his teeth secretly, almost breaking his back teeth, and secretly made a few notes about the Red Embroidered Ball, waiting to settle the score slowly!

In the dark room of Baoguan, disaster struck out of nowhere. Hongxiuqiu, who was inexplicably accused of a huge crime, was on the verge of tears. Good heavens, it turned out to be all her fault! It was clearly her own fault, Master, who was being cunning and wicked and insisted on bullying the little one. But when things went wrong, she refused to admit it... Outrageous, just outrageous!

Sensing the anger and dissatisfaction of the Red Embroidered Ball, Hongjun snorted coldly and forcibly suppressed it. He'd deal with it after his little one calmed down, which would also be considered venting his anger for his child! The Red Embroidered Ball, suffering in silence, was inexplicably thrown into another dimension. Its mournful cries stimulated the senses of the other magical artifacts in the Mustard Seed Space, which had already developed sentience. They looked at each other, then quickly moved away from the vanished Red Embroidered Ball, silently offering a sigh of relief. They wondered which dimension their master had thrown it into, and it wouldn't be back for a while…

Oh no! Master is summoning the spirit treasures! Which unlucky spirit treasure is going to be used as a cat-pacifier again? They don't want to end up like the Red Embroidered Ball! The spirit treasures scattered and fled in a sorry state, but no matter how fast they ran, it was useless. Hongjun's eyes were sharp, and he decisively took out the Six Soul Banner, which was still drowsy in place!

The Six Soul Banner was inexplicably summoned by its master, and looked at the empty mustard seed space in surprise: "???" Huh, where are its companions? How did they all escape?

Hongjun sealed the power of the Six Soul Banner and used magic to change its appearance. The six long tails of the Six Soul Banner were rolled up, leaving only the top of the banner. A feather was inlaid on the top of the banner, and a small bronze bell that could make a tinkling sound was tied to the bottom of the banner. Hongjun also thought that the color of the Six Soul Banner was too ancient, so he infused it with magic power and turned it into pink!

Six Soul Banner: "..." Master, are you serious? This banner is a top-tier magical weapon renowned for its deadly power, capable of killing without shedding blood, and it's turned into a cat toy?!

Or is it just a pink cat toy?! Ugh! My reputation is ruined! If word gets out, will I even be able to show my face in the Magic Treasury?!

Hongjun glanced at the still-gurgling Six Soul Banner with displeasure, but with just one look, the Six Soul Banner wisely shut up and obediently became his cat toy.

Is there no justice left? Can't Bao even complain about its master's taste? Pink, red, color, funny, cat, great! Pink! Master, I hate pink!!! The Six Soul Banner's heart was filled with sorrow, almost to the point of collapse.

If it had known that being caught would lead to this, it definitely would have run away at all costs!

Hongjun held the freshly made cat toy in his hand and with a gentle wave, the feather on top of the banner immediately flew up, as if it had come to life in the kitten's eyes. The kitten's eyes lit up, and it pounced on it with a meow. The bell became the accompaniment, constantly enticing the kitten's mind, especially the feather that made the kitten scratch its ears and cheeks, which constantly provoked the kitten's competitive spirit.

I'll definitely catch you, I won't give up, meow~
