“Mmm mmm mmm~ I’m full! Stop feeding me! I’m going to explode if you feed me more!”
The red prompt combined with the voice warning gave Yun Fei a fright, and she hastily stopped the transmission of Demonic Power.
“Does this high-end-sounding thing only need this much Demonic Power? I’ve barely even started.”
As if hearing Yun Fei’s grumbling, the Spirit Talisman began to explain: This product’s maximum energy capacity is 100 units, which is approximately equal to the total Demonic Power or Spiritual Power of the Three Realms of Enlightenment.
“Oh, it’s just the Three Realms of Enlightenment. That’s fine then.”
“Beep beep! Detected that the user’s Demonic Power frequency matches that of a top-tier member of the Commerce Association. Triggering underlying mechanism. Automatically adding the contact information of President Bai Yuetong… Addition complete!”
“Huh?” Yun Fei was stunned by this smooth operation.
Hearing Bai Yuetong’s name, she suddenly realized—this must have been Big Sister Bai’s doing!
As if responding to Yun Fei’s guess, the Spirit Talisman in her hand suddenly began to vibrate, and a gold-stamped name appeared on the screen.
However, it wasn’t the name “Bai Yuetong,” but the title “Big Sister Bai~”.
“Eh? A green button and a red button… which one should I click… the red one looks better, let’s go with this one!”
With that thought, Yun Fei pressed the red button at the bottom left of the name “Big Sister Bai~”.
“Dong—” With a dull sound, the page disappeared, returning to the initial state when the screen first lit up.
“Uh… and then?”
Yun Fei blinked her large eyes, belatedly realizing that perhaps she should have clicked the green one.
Soon, the moment to confirm her suspicion arrived.
Her Spirit Talisman began to vibrate again, once more showing “Big Sister Bai~”.
This time, she pressed the green button.
Subsequently, Big Sister Bai’s face suddenly appeared on the Spirit Talisman.
Currently, her long red hair was a mess, and her eyes were hazy, seemingly carrying a hint of resentment.
“Yun Fei—! Is your skin itching for a beating? You actually dared to hang up my Spirit Talisman communication!”
But immediately following that was a tirade from Bai Yuetong.
“I… Big Sister Bai… I don’t know how to use it. You haven’t let me try out this new gadget you made yet…”
“Huh? I didn’t let you use it? Are you kid— actually, it seems I really did forget.”
Just as Bai Yuetong looked like she was about to go berserk, her rationality suddenly returned, and she realized she indeed hadn’t done that.
“Alright, I forgive you. Now turn on the camera for me and let me see what you look like now that you’ve turned into a girl!”
“…How do I turn it on?”
“…”
“Press the button in the bottom right corner.”
“Oh.”
Following Bai Yuetong’s instructions, Yun Fei pressed the button in the bottom right.
Immediately after, Yun Fei saw Big Sister Bai’s face on the screen enlarge rapidly, as if she were trying to crawl out of the screen.
“Oh~ Oh! Not bad~ Looking like this, you actually resemble your Mother~ Your previous face looked way too much like your early-departed father; it annoyed the hell out of me. You’re much more pleasing to the eye now~”
Hearing Bai Yuetong’s words, the corners of Yun Fei’s mouth twitched.
However, it didn’t matter; she truly couldn’t find it in her to be angry with Bai Yuetong.
If it were her Mother, she might go easy on her for the sake of being her own flesh and blood, but if it were Big Sister Bai, she would truly beat her within an inch of her life—especially that face that used to be largely inherited from her father.
Yun Fei had reason to suspect exactly what her father had done back then to make Big Sister Bai always find her so disagreeable.
Moreover, this wasn’t the first time Big Sister Bai had bluntly expressed her hatred for her original face. She… was already used to it (sob sob).
“Um… Big Sister Bai, is there anything else? If not, I’ll… uh… how do you say it… hang up?”
“There is! Of course there is! You saw those pairs of White Silk I had someone secretly stuff into your freshman kit, right?”
Yun Fei froze slightly, then said with a shocked face, “Those White Silk were placed there by you? I thought they were a gift from the Academy~”
“The Academy? Hahaha… Yun Fei, if that Academy of yours actually gave those to students, I would definitely shout that those old fossils had finally seen the light! Those guys are just a bunch of deadheads. Or rather, everyone in the Profane Realm is like that—extremely conservative. My business here in the Profane Realm is struggling~ It’s much more comfortable in the Demon Realm; things sell so smoothly there!”
In front of the screen, Bai Yuetong made a series of gestures, denouncing the aesthetic tastes of the Profane Realm.
“Conservative? What does that have to do with being conservative? These things called White Silk, aren’t they just long socks that feel a bit more comfortable?”
To be honest, Yun Fei truly didn’t understand the logic of Big Sister Bai or the audience for those White Silk.
To this, Bai Yuetong spoke with the frustration of one seeing a lost cause, “You really are Yun Ming’s daughter, just as much of a deadhead as she is! How about this: I’ll send you a few photos, and you might understand once you see them.”
Just as Bai Yuetong finished speaking, Yun Fei saw a message pop-up suddenly jump onto the screen.
She clicked it, and a few photos popped out…
“Mmm… this is…” Yun Fei’s eyes widened, and her body suddenly felt a bit hot.
“Heehee~ Your masculine mindset shouldn’t have completely faded yet, right? How is it? Do you feel a bit of an impulsive urge?”
Bai Yuetong was truly blunt in her speech.
Such crude language actually jumped straight out of her small, cherry-like mouth, making Yun Fei’s face flush completely red.
“What are you saying! I don’t have that thing anymore!”
Yun Fei shouted loudly in shame and indignation, burying her head very low.
Yun Fei felt her brain feeling hot and dizzy.
She didn’t understand! Why was Big Sister Bai, who usually seemed so focused on her career, so wild and uninhibited in her speech today?
“Heehee~ Alright, alright~ You’re such a child, so easily teased~ I mainly wanted to tell you this time: your mother, who’s all bark and no bite, asked me to give you some Spiritual Yuan as living expenses. As for me~ you know, I’m very generous. There’s a city near the foot of the Academy’s mountain where there’s a branch of the Demon Capital Commerce Association. I’ve already demoted the President there to Vice President. You’ll be the President, and the Vice President has no objections at all~ You just need to find some time to go and take over with your Young Lord Command~”
What? Spiritual Yuan? President? Such a good thing actually existed?
This sudden happiness was quite unexpected~
“Hehehe~ Big~ Sister~ Bai~ You’re so kind~”
Yun Fei imitated the way other girls acted spoiled toward their elders, calling out sweetly to Bai Yuetong.
As for face?
She was already a girl now; what was wrong with doing this?
“Yikes~ To think you were originally a boy, yet you can speak like this without any psychological pressure after becoming a girl… I feel a great sense of accomplishment~”
Accomplishment?
Yun Fei’s smile froze on her face as her thoughts jumped back several years to the experience when she had followed her Mother’s orders to infiltrate an Old Nobles’ banquet disguised as a woman:
After she had set out, Big Sister Bai followed her under the guise of providing protection, but after she had cross-dressed, she proactively offered to train her in etiquette and behavior…
In short, it was a memory she couldn’t bear to look back on.
Speaking of which, the fact that she didn’t have much of a problem with her psychological transition after becoming a girl might be related to that experience…
After all, she had taken the Gender-Swapping Pill for a month back then and lived as a girl for over a month…
Of course, the Gender-Swapping Pill wasn’t a permanent transformation—such a pill was theoretically impossible—it could only achieve a short-term transformation.
“Ah, haha… There’s definitely a share of Big Sister Bai’s contribution in there~”
Yun Fei said with a fake smile.
Her past self from several years ago surely never would have imagined that a few years later, she would permanently maintain the appearance of a girl.
“Mm~ It’s good that you know of Big Sister Bai’s foresight~ Once I’m done with things here, I’ll return to the Demon Realm. You’ll be around your winter break by then, so wait for me~”
“Okay~”
The communication finally hung up.
Yun Fei tugged at the corners of her slightly stiff mouth, and the pressure on her face instantly lessened.
Maintaining a smiling face was still too tiring, especially one that didn’t come from the heart.
But… hehehehe~
Spiritual Yuan~ Although it was only a branch office, the foundation of the Demon Capital Commerce Association was right there.
Even if business wasn’t great here in the Profane Realm, as the President, she had the right to request an advance on funds from above.
Moreover, she hadn’t even been to the branch yet; it was hard to say how it really was~
“Giggle giggle~ To hell with Mu Lingxi! To hell with being a chef! This Young Master has money now! As for being a chef… anyone who wants the job can have it!”
Having money gave her such confidence!
Tomorrow… no!
She would go down the mountain right now, take out some Spiritual Yuan, and then resign to Mu Lingxi’s face.
Then she would slap a handful of Spiritual Yuan onto her face.
Just thinking about that scene—two words: pure satisfaction!
Heehee~ Mu Lingxi! The situation is about to be reversed!
No time to lose, she had to set out now!
Yun Fei couldn’t wait any longer!
Down the mountain! Get the money!
A short while later, outside the 24th District, Yun Fei stared blankly at the roads branching out in all directions…
As well as the boundless sea of clouds looking toward the foot of the mountain.
“This… Was I originally up this high? I didn’t pay much attention because it was too dark last night, and I was carried back by Mu Lingxi after I fainted…”
“Whew—never mind! Anyway, going down is the right way!”
Yun Fei cheered herself up and found a path to head down the mountain.
Along the way, Yun Fei looked at the students flying back and forth on swords in the sky, and a trace of envy couldn’t help but rise in her heart.
Even though she already possessed the ability to fly on a sword, she didn’t have a sword.
Among the weapons she always kept on her person, she had everything but a sword.
The reason… was because Mu Lingxi used a sword, and she didn’t want to use the same weapon as her.
She had tried flying while hanging onto a spear in the Demon Realm before, but that looked too strange!
Just then, while Yun Fei was worrying, an Immortal Crane flew over her head.
Yun Fei’s sharp eyes saw that someone was actually sitting on the crane’s back.
An Immortal Crane?
Yun Fei’s eyes darted around… Aha! She had a great idea!
She remembered seeing a few Immortal Cranes yesterday when she went to the back mountain to catch rabbits.
She could try catching one to use as a mount.
Just thinking about that scene made the corners of Yun Fei’s mouth begin to curl upward.
No sooner said than done!
Thus, Yun Fei changed paths and turned into the small trail leading toward the back mountain.
“I remember seeing them by the water yesterday. I should be able to find them if I walk along the riverbank…”
Yun Fei’s goal was very clear.
She wove through the forest, her nose sniffing the natural scent drifting through the air.
With a slight twitch of her nose, she captured the sweet coolness of fresh water.
“This way~”
Yun Fei pushed aside the bushes and branches, casually kicking away a brown-furred fox that was blocking her path.
“Ow!” The fox, which had rolled aside, bared its teeth fiercely, but upon seeing Yun Fei’s pupils shimmering with a faint violet light, its fur shuddered all over, and it fled as if for its life.
