Animal-eared Girl Era: Start by Forming a Contract with an SSS-Class School Belle

Xiao Ye stopped in his tracks and opened the Template Adjuster's viewing function,

[Template Scanning in Progress]

[SSS-level Kunpeng Template] (Upgradeable)

[Existing Issue, During template awakening, the absorption of the wrong type of Rule Fragment Crystal caused template instability, making it impossible to form a contract]

[Physical defect due to template instability, Emotional nerve numbness; as the Realm increases, he would eventually become a cold-blooded person] (Relapsed again) (New Human Body Massage Manual available for claiming)

Sure enough, it relapsed.

*Judging by the scan result from the Template Adjuster, Xiao Ye already had the answer in his mind.*

But on the surface, he still put on a look of bafflement and confusion, asking, "Are you sure?"

"After the last massage, I already removed the negative Dao Rhythm from the template instability, so it should last at least ten days."

Yunxi said she was pretty sure.

Xiao Ye frowned, grabbed the soft, boneless little hand of the Goddess Dean Yunxi, and led her back to the sofa, saying, "Maybe your perception is off, let me check."

Yunxi didn't know what this jerk was up to, so she let him check as he pleased.

Xiao Ye looked very serious, pretending to check, grabbing her petite hand, pinching here and pressing there, making it all look very professional.

Her little hands were fair, fingers long and slender, and her tiny nails were trimmed short.

A minute later, a trace of blush climbed up Yunxi's little face, and she said, "Are you done checking?"

Xiao Ye shook his head, kept "checking" (actually playing with her hand) for several more minutes, his frown getting deeper and deeper, until his brows knotted into the shape of a river character!

*Seeing how serious his face was, Yunxi couldn't help but get nervous inside.*

"Hiss!" Xiao Ye suddenly sucked in a breath, face full of gravity, and said, "The situation's not looking good!"

*Yunxi's heart skipped a beat, her little face tensed up, and her beautiful eyes stared intently.*

Xiao Ye glanced at her nervous little face, *and chuckled to himself inwardly,* *Serves her right, this chick looked down on me yesterday and totally embarrassed me, so today I'll mess with her a bit.*

Xiao Ye kept his serious face, rolled up Yunxi's white robe sleeves all the way to her snowy shoulders.

Then this jerk again pretended to examine (actually play with her) for another five minutes.

Her white-as-lotus-root arm was flawless, like a work of art, perfectly shaped; and it emitted a unique, subtle body fragrance unlike anyone else.

*Yunxi was worried about the defect, so her little face was tense, but she didn't stop Xiao Ye from "examining" (playing with her).*

It wasn't until a few minutes later that Xiao Ye withdrew his hand, face serious as he said,

"It's even more serious than last time."

At this moment, Yunxi was no longer the aloof top Venerable, but just a frail little woman, and she said worriedly, "Can you fix it?"

Xiao Ye stared into her pure, limpid eyes for over ten seconds before slowly saying, "I can!"

Yunxi's face lit up, her whole body visibly relaxing.

But right after, Xiao Ye changed his tone, "But..."

Yunxi's heart, which had just calmed, leapt into her throat again. "But what? Say it!"

Xiao Ye grinned and said, "Gotta pay extra!"

Yunxi: ...

She shot him a speechless glare, pouted, her beautiful eyes flashing, and said, "No problem, last time the reward was a one-use teleportation Pixiu. This time I can give you something better."

"A one-use Venerable Level Spatial Shield, a one-use Venerable Level Spatial Attack, or a Venerable Realm Demon Beast Crystal Core, take your pick!"

*This jerk is way too bad, always leaving things hanging and making her worry herself to death.*

When he heard the types of rewards, Xiao Ye's eyes lit up.

Nice, those are all good stuff!

One-use Venerable Level items, whether attack or defense props, would cost at least a Great Venerable High-Grade Crystal Core at the market—or even a Venerable Level Low-Grade Crystal Core.

Xiao Ye thumped his solid chest and promised, "Sis Yunxi, no matter how bad the defect is, I can handle it. Leave it to me!"

A soft smile bloomed on Yunxi's stunning little face. "I believe you, so let's get started now."

Xiao Ye nodded, claimed a new massage manual from the Template Adjuster that could temporarily fix the defect.

After viewing it in his mind, Xiao Ye frowned and thought, *Uh-oh, this isn't good.*

He told Yunxi her condition was worse than before, but actually, she was doing better this time. The acupoint path in this manual was even simpler; he only needed to massage both feet, while last time he had to do the entire legs.

Just as his thoughts were running wild, a spotless, snow-white figure appeared in his view.

Yunxi had directly taken off her puffy white robe—she was completely naked this time.

Based on Xiao Ye's claim that the situation was worse, she figured it must require a full-body massage.

Xiao Ye stared, dumbfounded. Now, this was truly a work of art—the perfect golden ratio, skin pure white as snow.

But next, things got awkward—Goddess Dean got fully naked, but did he really only massage her feet?

"Come with me." Yunxi sashayed her sexy waist ahead of him and led Xiao Ye into a bedroom.

"I'm ready!" She lay there, her long lashes fluttering slightly—which meant she wasn't as calm inside as she looked—and her delicate little ears flushed red; even she could get shy.

"Okay!"

Xiao Ye decided to go for broke.

Afraid his hands would absorb her scent, he put on gloves, then began the massage following the manual's route and techniques.

These fair, tender little feet not only had no odor, they also exuded a subtle, unique body fragrance.

Rub, knead, poke, pound!

Xiao Ye had already reached the level of massage master, skilled in all kinds of massage techniques.

As he massaged, the Supreme Treasure—Xuanyuan Gem—in the system space kept absorbing the negative Dao Rhythm Energy that Xiao Ye was channeling out from Yunxi's body; after refining it, it spat out a pure glob of Dao Rhythm Energy that floated within the system space.

*Yunxi felt overwhelmed with comfort, almost moaning out loud; she barely held it in, or she'd have died of embarrassment.*

Half an hour later, Xiao Ye finished as per the manual's route—but the treated area was just her feet.

*If he stopped now, Yunxi might realize he had just been bullshitting her.*

So Xiao Ye forced himself to ditch the massage manual, Enjoyingthestory?FindmoreatMV-LEMPYR.

and started massaging other areas.

He worked his way up,

from the valleys to the peaks,

wherever there was an acupoint, he massaged—rub, knead, poke, pound!

Extra care to the most important parts!

Luckily, Xiao Ye's massage technique was already at an extraordinary level, showing no flaws at all; like an ancient Great Power mowing down all rivals, he swept up and massaged her the same way.

An hour later, the massage ended.

Xiao Ye practically fled, running out to the living room.

He peeled off his gloves and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, muttering guiltily, "Whew, that was close. Luckily I got away with it, or I'd get pounded for sure!"

A while later, the Goddess Dean Yunxi stepped out so wraped in a puffy white robe she looked fluffy.

Seeing Xiao Ye's forehead covered in sweat, she took out a bottle of golden potion from her storage space and handed it to him, saying,

"Fixing the defect must drain a lot of strength and energy, right? Drink some tonic and replenish."

In Yunxi's mind, he must have just manipulated some sort of supreme Dao Rhythm law power to remove the negative Rule from her template instability.

Xiao Ye had no idea what wild stories she was spinning—he just accepted the golden potion with a straight face, uncapped it, and gulped it down.

"Burp~~" He let out a loud belch.

Xiao Ye felt his energy surge inside—Damn, this stuff was potent, almost as good as Thousand-Year Ginseng! He nearly had a nosebleed from it.
