"..."

After seeing the method of identification, Si Jin hurriedly struggled to get up.

But before he could move, Mu Linyuan grabbed his two front paws and flipped him over.

Immortal Mu was serious and respectful in his dealings. He strictly followed the instructions in the book and gently brushed aside a few strands of white mane.

He stared at Si Jin intently for a while, then nodded in realization.

"Oh, it's a male catfish."

Si Jin could no longer tolerate it, and his sharp claws gradually appeared.

As soon as it was released, it scratched Mu Linyuan's hand with its claw.

Mu Linyuan hissed softly, and a few drops of bright red blood fell down.

Si Jin's eyes lit up, and she immediately licked the blood off her claws.

Then, she pretended to be innocent and clever, and went to lick the wound on the back of Mu Linyuan's hand.

Unexpectedly, after drinking two mouthfuls of blood, Mu Linyuan pulled her into his arms and gently stroked her fur with his other, uninjured hand.

"It's alright." As he spoke, the wound on the white-robed immortal's hand had already been healed by his own powerful spiritual energy.

She held up her undamaged hand in front of Si Jin: "See, you're alright now?"

Si Jin: ...

He bared his teeth, aimed at the hand in front of him, and opened his mouth to bite it.

But Mu Linyuan took it away even faster.

"What's wrong? Are you hungry?" Mu Linyuan smiled, picked him up and placed him on the table, opened the cat food and said, "Eat."

Si Jin sighed wearily, then turned her head away haughtily: "Meow." (I won't eat.)

"Don't you like it?" Mu Linyuan frowned slightly, opened all the cat food again, but still didn't see Si Jin turn her head.

"Alright then." Mu Linyuan opened the fried yellow croaker he had packed back: "I'll eat first, then I'll take care of your problem."

Unexpectedly, as soon as the packaging was opened, Si Jin went over and snatched a fish away.

"Oh, you like this? Let's eat together."

So, Feifeijin was once again touched on the head by the Immortal Venerable Yuan.

Pat your head once, and you'll get a small yellow croaker as a reward.

Feifei lay beside Mu Linyuan, eating while meowing to herself.

"Meow~ Meow~ Meow~" (Don't think you can bribe me by giving me the dried fish.)

"Meow~ Meow~ Meow~" (Once I recover, I'll make you kneel on a washboard!)

… …

After dinner, Mu Linyuan tidied up the table.

She sat down next to Si Jin again: "You need to take a bath tonight. How long has it been since you last took a bath? How about... I take you to take a bath first?"

Si Jin let him carry her to the hot spring in the Cloud Brocade Palace.

He had originally thought he might be able to bite Mu Linyuan while taking a bath, but he forgot that as a Feifei, he was afraid of water.

Therefore, upon seeing Feifei's special little bathtub steaming with heat from Mu Linyuan's spiritual power, she instinctively bristled.

"Meow meow!" (Let me go!)

"Waaaaah!" (This person doesn't want to take a bath!!)

However, after struggling in vain, he was still captured by the immortal venerable who possessed abundant spiritual power.

Swipe—

The claws tore Mu Linyuan's snow-white outer robe.

Mu Linyuan frowned slightly, then simply took off his outer robe and neatly placed it on a clothes rack to the side.

Grabbing Si Jin by the back of the neck, he gently scolded, "You little lecher, do you want to bathe with me?"

"But my hot spring pool is a bit big, you'd be better off staying in this small basin."

Suddenly, swish—

This time, both the inner and outer garments were torn to shreds by the beast's claws.

The fairy's delicate and beautiful collarbone was revealed.

Mu Linyuan sighed, folded the inner and outer garments together, placed them on the shelf, and picked up Si Jin again: "Since you want to, let's go into the hot spring together."

… …

Amidst the swirling mist, Si Jin was eventually forced into the hot spring and soaked.

Its wet, white mane steamed, and it swam a couple of times towards the edge of the tub, its little paws flailing.

Taking advantage of Mu Linyuan's momentary lapse in attention, she opened her mouth and bit his finger, drawing blood.

Fresh blood enters the mouth.

The little creature sucked on the sweet blood, just like it was holding a baby bottle, enough to restore its health.

A moment later, his form gradually changed...
