The benefits of a stronger primordial energy go beyond just enhanced senses and improved physical abilities.

Zhang Shaozhong gradually discovered a more subtle, and sometimes more troublesome, change!

He began to vaguely sense the emotional fluctuations of Ling Qingxue and Ye Meier!

This perception is not mind reading and cannot know specific thoughts; it is more like a kind of "background noise" or "ambient thermometer" of emotions.

That feeling is especially noticeable when they are experiencing strong emotions.

For example, on this day, Ye Meier was having a heated argument with a troll fan in her live stream. Even though Zhang Shaozhong was in a different room, he could vaguely feel a wave of intense, flamboyant, and slightly smug emotion coming from her, like being near a small stove.

When Ling Qingxue quietly reads on the balcony and occasionally gains insight, he senses a tranquil, clear, and slightly cool and pleasant fluctuation, as if a gentle breeze is blowing across his heart.

This ability was initially unstable, sometimes working and sometimes not, but as he gradually became more proficient in controlling the chaotic energy, his perception became clearer and clearer.

The first time I clearly felt a strong emotion was after dinner.

Zhang Shao made a new braised pork dish, and it tasted pretty good.

He habitually put a lean piece on Ling Qingxue's plate first, and then put a large piece of fatty and lean meat on Ye Meier's plate, who was complaining that she was "starving."

Just as he was serving food to Ye Meier, he clearly sensed a faint, fleeting hint of cold displeasure coming from Ling Qingxue, like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating small ripples.

Meanwhile, a triumphant and joyful mood, as if a victory had been won, emanated from Ye Meier's side.

Zhang Shaozhong paused, his hand holding the chopsticks still, looking a little bewildered.

He glanced at Ling Qingxue, who was eating rice with a normal expression, and then at Ye Meier, who was enjoying her meal and even winking at him. A ridiculous thought popped into his head: Could it be that the fairy was upset because I put food on my older sister's plate?!

This thought startled even himself!

How could a fairy possibly have such petty emotions?

You must be perceiving it wrong!

Yes, it must have just acquired the ability and it's not stable yet!

However, similar "small signals" continued to appear in the following days.

When he praised Ling Qingxue's extensive knowledge a few more times during the live stream, he could sense a sour, slightly resentful restlessness coming from Ye Meier's side.

When he subconsciously responded to Ye Meier's call first, the "ambient temperature" on Ling Qingxue's side seemed to drop slightly by a few tenths of a degree.

Even when he bought snacks from the supermarket and subconsciously took more spicy strips that Ye Meier liked and less of the light pastries that Ling Qingxue preferred, he could vaguely detect a trace of disappointment on the fairy's face.

Zhang Shaozhong felt like he was going crazy!

This is hardly a benefit!

This is an emotional intelligence test with hellish difficulty!

He's a straight man who's been single for years, and all he used to have to think about was how to survive and how to make money. Now he actually has to start trying to figure out the subtle emotional changes between two terrifyingly powerful and even more unpredictable immortal and demonic figures?!

This is a million times harder than managing a live stream and dealing with trolls!

The most thrilling incident happened one weekend afternoon.

Zhang Shaozhong finally had some free time, so he curled up on the sofa and played games.

Ling Qingxue was meditating on the balcony, while Ye Meier was fiddling with something in the room.

Suddenly, a chilling rage, so intense it made his heart tremble, pierced his senses like an ice pick!

The source is—Ling Qingxue's room!

Zhang Shaozhong was so frightened that he dropped his game controller and scrambled towards the balcony.

Ling Qingxue remained seated cross-legged, but her aura was icy. On the floating phone screen in front of her was a malicious online comment, an unwarranted insult directed at her previous explanation of traditional culture.

The icy anger was almost tangible; tiny ice crystals began to condense on the leaves of several potted plants on the balcony!

Zhang Shaozhong felt a chill run down his spine. He knew that with the fairy having recovered a considerable amount of cultivation, if she were to get truly angry, she might just freeze the entire building!

He rushed forward, disregarding everything else, snatched the fairy's phone, forcibly exited the page, and mumbled incoherent words of comfort:

"Fairy! Fairy, calm down! Don't bother with those internet trolls! They don't know anything! You don't need to get angry at them! It's not worth ruining your health!"

As he spoke, he tried to project an image of "peace and reassurance," attempting to neutralize the chilling anger with his own pitiful, chaotic energy.

Perhaps sensing his clumsy yet sincere reassurance, or perhaps due to the effects of her own Dao cultivation, the chill around Ling Qingxue gradually subsided. She opened her eyes, glanced at Zhang Shaozhong with a complex and unfathomable look, and finally simply said, "I'm fine."

He closed his eyes again, but the chilling anger finally dissipated.

Zhang Shaozhong let out a long sigh of relief, feeling his back was soaked with sweat. This "emotional radar" could even be used as an alarm in a critical moment!

In contrast, sensing Night Enchantress's emotions is much more "lively".

Her emotions often come and go quickly, like strong liquor, spicy and direct.

When she's happy, she's passionate as fire; when she's dissatisfied, she's irritable as thunder. Occasionally, she'll reveal a hint of insecurity hidden beneath her flamboyance, which even she herself might not be aware of, making Zhang Shaozhong feel inexplicably...heartbroken.

That evening, Zhang Shaozhong couldn't help but confess his new ability to the two big shots.

"Um... I have something to tell you."

He scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, "I think... I can roughly sense the state of your emotions when they're running high... you know, that... atmosphere?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Qingxue looked up at him, her eyes calm and unwavering, and simply hummed in response, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

Ye Meier was taken aback for a moment, then, as if she had discovered a new continent, she moved closer to Zhang Shaozhong and stared at him curiously: "Really? Can you sense what I want to do right now?"

Zhang Shaozhong sensed it carefully for a moment, then hesitated and said, "It seems... a little... like you want to beat me up?"

"Haha! You guessed right!"

Ye Meier laughed and patted him on the shoulder, "Looks like your radar is pretty accurate! Don't try to pull any tricks on me again!"

Zhang Shaozhong smiled bitterly.

This ability truly brought him both joy and sorrow.

The good thing is that I can better understand the two big shots (and avoid stepping on landmines), but the bad thing is... this job of being a "master of balance" will probably become more and more difficult in the future!

With two powerful figures who are highly perceptive, have greatly increased their strength, and possess emotional radar for monitoring him, Zhang Shaozhong felt that his life was destined to continue amidst chaos and caution.

The career skills tree of this "nanny" is getting more and more skewed!
