"Then let me ask you, let me ask you." Yu Yunxiao buried his head against Xiao Jinsheng''s waist, rubbing back and forth: "Answer me, answer me."
"The little white cat and the little ck cat, who do you actually like..."
"You ask too many questions." Ying''s movements were faster than Xiao Jinsheng''s response, and he was the first to pull Yu Yunxiao away.
Yu Yunxiao looked angrily at Ying: "What are you doing!"
Ying blushed, looking nervous, grabbing Yu Yunxiao to prevent him from approaching Xiao Jinsheng: "Xiao doesn''t want to answer you, you''re not allowed to ask anymore."
"What does whether I ask or not have to do with you?" Yu Yunxiao bumped him out of the way and walked towards Xiao Jinsheng: "I''m talking to my Female Master, don''t interfere."
"You can talk, but you''re not allowed to get close." Ying continued to block.
Yu Yunxiao, though angry, started to notice something was wrong with Ying.
His cat-like eyes filled with suspicion, staring at Ying: "Are you out of your mind?"
"It''s not that he''s out of his mind." Shi Xie interjected.
His gaze shifted over Ying and Yu Yunxiao''s identical appearances, saying: "It''s that both of you have something going on."
"Dual souls, the dark soul evolved into a physical form along with the contract being split." Shi Xie exined his theory.
His icy blue eyes settled on Ying''s flushed face, speaking with certainty: "In other areas, like touch, wouldn''t dual souls share sensations?"
"Empathy?" Yu Yunxiao was surprised, then shook his head repeatedly: "Impossible, if there was empathy, I wouldn''t be able to handle all the food he eats."
"But he looks like he''s experiencing empathy." Mo Jiao''s purple eyes were cold, a dangerous gazended on Ying.
Following everyone''s suspicion, Yu Yunxiao also looked at Ying.
Sure enough, Ying''s face was red, as if he were embarrassed.
"Why are you blushing?" Yu Yunxiao questioned loudly: "What''s with your blushing, you teapot?"
"You!" Yu Yunxiao stopped himself from speaking further.
He recalled just moments ago, how he had been all over Xiao Jinsheng.
The other beastmen, being his romantic rivals, hadn''t stopped him.
Yet Ying, an external soul, had taken action first.
The more Yu Yunxiao thought, the more he felt chilled.
In a trembling voice, he looked at Ying, shocked: "Are you really sharing empathy with me?"
"I..." Ying hesitated.
He tilted his head, looked past Yu Yunxiao, and gazed at Xiao Jinsheng.
Seeing Xiao Jinsheng also looking bewildered.
At the very least, he wasn''t angry.
Only then did he nod in response, exining to Yu Yunxiao: "What you touch, I can feel."
"Just like I can feel when you''re about to die." Ying added.
"I don''t believe it!" Yu Yunxiao felt like going crazy.
He turned around and shook Xiao Jinsheng''s hand, looking at Ying: "What about this?"
Ying didn''t answer him.
But the fluffy energy-formed cat ears turned pink.
His right hand''s fingers subtly moved.
Even though he was standing two meters away from Xiao Jinsheng.
He could still feel that holding her hand was this warm.
"Let go!" Li couldn''t take it anymore.
He directly shed over and separated Yu Yunxiao and Xiao Jinsheng''s locked hands.
Witnessing the embodiment of the dark soul, Ying, actually being able to empathize with Yu Yunxiao.
Everyone present fell into silence.
Even Yu Yunxiao, after his initial breakdown, was silent.
He looked at Li, who was now guarding against him from approaching Xiao Jinsheng, and sighed: "I understand what it felt like when Shi Xie came after you for stealing the flower."
Li had stolen Shi Xie''s Ice Sea Flower, which allowed Shi Xie to smoothly find the seven-year-ago promised Xiao Jinsheng.
And himself, he exchanged a Cultivation Secret Manual with Lou Yan Zhi, which allowed Ying to cultivate a physical form and seek out Xiao Jinsheng.
Yu Yunxiao pped his palm over his face, closing his eyes in despair.
He used to mock Li.
Now...
No one should say anything about anyone.
Who hasn''t brought a romantic rival into their home?
"If you''re unhappy, don''t ruin everyone else''s mood." Li said exasperatedly.
He was most annoyed with that fish Shi Xie.
Thinking back now.
He wished he could go back in time and beat himself up for trying to snatch the Ice Sea Flower.
"Then does this mean I''m no longer the youngest in the family?" Xuan Jiu was surprised.
"You''re still the ninth." Huaiqing passed by and replied.
"But isn''t there a potential tenth here?" Xuan Jiu indicated Ying with a gesture to Huaiqing.
Given Xiao Jinsheng''s fondness for fluffy things.
And this Ying, despite looking innocent, is the kind that easily wins the affection of females.
Moreover, due to the shared empathy between Ying and Yu Yunxiao, Xuan Jiu felt that Ying joining this family was just a matter of time.
If not the tenth, what ce would he upy?
"ording to terminal binding order, he''d be first." Que Zelian added.
"What!" Li couldn''t stay calm again and emphasized loudly: "I''m the main husband!"
"That''s just the Contractual Totem." Su Ye corrected.
Chen Yunji sat quietly aside without speaking.
Because he didn''t have a terminal binding with Xiao Jinsheng.
Whether it was a Contractual Totem or a Unity Contract, he''d never be first.
"When the terminal assigned beast husbands, the match between us five and Xiao Jinsheng was based on order, separated by seconds, at most." Li continued to emphasize.
"Yu Yunxiao and Xiao Jinsheng were first." Huaiqing exined andughed while adding: "Oh, I was second."
"Third." Que Zelian said.
"Fourth." Mo Jiao also added.
Only Su Ye didn''t look pleased: "Fifth."
Thinking about how there were initially five of them, Su Ye, who ranked fifth, couldn''t lift his spirits.
"If essentially Yu Yunxiao and Ying are one person, then in terms of terminal binding, both Yu Yunxiao and Ying are first." Huaiqing responded.
"Really?" Ying asked excitedly.
After asking, he eagerly looked at Xiao Jinsheng.
Xiao Jinsheng blushed, her gaze dodgy.
She thought about it and then nodded.
Because she recalled one thing.
The Spiritual Power Level she upgraded the first time she was with Yu Yunxiao.
Yu Yunxiao, due to his dual-soul nature, had significantly helped her advance her Spiritual Power Level.
Digging deeper, as the dark soul, Ying had actually upied the same quota as Yu Yunxiao and had always been with her, existing within the contract.
Only before, as the dark soul wasn''t separated, the distinction wasn''t visible.
Now that it was separated.
The contract was split in two.
There was even empathy.
"Why is my first like this?" Yu Yunxiao was dissatisfied.
He wanted to nestle next to Xiao Jinsheng again.
But thinking of Ying sharing empathy with him.
Approaching Xiao Jinsheng would just benefit Ying.
Yu Yunxiao forcefully restrained his instinct to approach Xiao Jinsheng, turning to drag Ying upstairs: "Come with me, we need to have a good talk."
"Xiao." Ying stood his ground, unmovable by Yu Yunxiao''s pull.
Ying looked towards Xiao Jinsheng seeking permission: "Can I go with him?"
"You two have a good talk." Xiao Jinsheng replied.
She knew Yu Yunxiao.
Though acting irrationally in anger now.
Yu Miao Miao had always been a good cat.
Given this situation.
She understood that Yu Yunxiao truly intended to seek out Ying toe to a sensible resolution.
"Alright, Xiao agrees for me to go with you." Ying nodded obediently, addressing Yu Yunxiao.
Yu Yunxiao, fed up, used healing energy on himself, emphatically warning: "This is my Female Master! Mine!"
"Not just yours." Ying retorted, his gaze sweeping over the other beastmen, sincerely stating: "She''s theirs too."
"That''s quite true." Xuan Jiu nodded.
Yu Yunxiao red up: "Which side are you on, you dizzy fox!"
