Nuwa, the goddess of immortality, said that cultivating immortality does not require spiritual energ

"Qin Le, you need to do something about her!"

Upon seeing Qin Le appear, the beautiful calico cat seemed to have found a savior. It nimbly leaped to Qin Le's feet, raised its little head, and its emerald green eyes were filled with relief that it was saved.

She was truly exasperated with this human girl. Even though she had clearly refused to establish a bloodline contract, the other party was like a piece of chewing gum, relentlessly pursuing her.

"Hey? Qin Le, you're back! Perfect timing, quickly help me catch her!" Li Yanran also saw Qin Le, her eyes lit up, and she immediately pointed at the calico cat and shouted.

"What are you grabbing me for?" Qin Le rolled her eyes at Li Yanran, annoyed. "What exactly did you do to her?"

"I didn't do anything," Li Yanran blinked her big eyes, looking completely innocent. "I just felt a special connection with her and wanted to establish a bloodline contract with her."

Qin Le rubbed his temples, looking doubtful: "Really?"

"It's absolutely true! I'm not lying to you!" Li Yanran raised three fingers as if to swear.

Qin Le ignored her, squatted down, looked at the calico cat at her feet, and lowered her voice: "What...did she do to you?"

The calico cat flicked its tail and sighed, "It just keeps bothering me, I can't shake it off, it's so annoying."

Qin Le glanced up at Li Yanran, who was clasping her hands together and looking at him with pitiful eyes, her meaning clear—help me persuade her!

Qin Le sighed helplessly, looked at the calico cat again, and said gently, "Can we talk? Let's go somewhere else."

The calico cat tilted its head, its emerald green eyes glancing at Qin Le, then at Li Yanran beside it who looked on expectantly, as if it had guessed Qin Le's intentions.

But sensing the Daoist aura emanating from Qin Le that made her feel incredibly comfortable and even faintly yearn for him, she hesitated for a moment before nodding gently.

"Can."

Qin Le led Li Yanran and the calico cat back to the living room of the courtyard where the human students were temporarily staying.

After taking their seats, Qin Le cut straight to the point: "Yanran should have mentioned to you that she and I have a good relationship. If you two establish a bloodline contract, as her partner, you can often stay by her side, naturally giving you a chance to get close to me and benefit from my Daoist aura. This condition sounds good... Can you tell me why you still refused?"

The calico cat licked its paws, its tone calm, even somewhat resigned: "Because... I probably won't live much longer. Whether I can get some Daoist energy or not is no longer important to me."

"ah?!"

Li Yanran gasped in surprise, and Qin Le also looked astonished, clearly not expecting this reason.

Qin Le composed himself and pressed for details, "Could you tell me the specific reason?"

The calico cat didn't hide anything and frankly said, "I have four different demon bloodlines within me, and each one is very powerful and domineering. They conflict with each other and cannot be reconciled. Before long, these bloodline powers will completely erupt and fight each other, and when my body can't withstand it... I'll probably... die."

"this……"

Qin Le and Li Yanran looked at each other, speechless for a moment.

They had some understanding of the demon race, knowing that they relied on bloodline power for cultivation.

They had heard some rumors about the mixed-blood demon race, but those rumors all mentioned powerful beings who had already grown up.

This was the first time they had ever encountered a little demon like the one before, who possessed multiple top-tier bloodlines but was therefore facing the risk of premature death.

"Is there really no way at all?" Li Yanran couldn't help but ask, her voice filled with urgency and resentment.

She was unwilling to give up the kitten she felt a connection with, and even more unwilling to see it meet its end.

"A solution?" The calico cat glanced at her, its eyes devoid of emotion. "Unless you have a 'Nine-Turn Golden Elixir' to completely rebuild my bloodline foundation, eliminate conflicts, and merge me into one. Do you... have one?"

"Nine-Turn Golden Elixir?!"

Li Yanran and Qin Le both gave a wry smile.

That was a legendary, supreme divine pill, long since extinct in the Three Realms. Even if it truly existed, Qin Le had already used it; it wouldn't even be available to a mere kitten.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

Qin Le pondered for a moment, then asked, "What exactly are the four bloodlines in your body?"

Although the calico cat found it strange that he asked this, it still answered truthfully: "Cat Clan, Tiger Clan, Dragon Clan, and... Phoenix Clan."

"Dragon... Dragon and Phoenix?!" Li Yanran was so shocked she almost jumped up.

Tigers and cats are easy to understand, but what about dragons and phoenixes?

This is the most elite bloodline among the demon race!

How could they all appear on the same calico cat?

"You won't believe me, just look."

As if to prove she wasn't lying, the calico cat slightly raised her neck. Beneath the soft fur on her throat, a small, bluish-metallic scale was faintly visible—it was a dragon scale.

Then, with a thought, she controlled the demonic power on her back. The hair in the center of her back automatically parted to the sides, revealing a pair of small, bird-like wing-like phantoms covered in downy feathers—these were not yet fully developed phoenix wings!

Upon seeing these two items, Qin Le and Li Yanran were completely convinced and speechless.

This bloodline combination is simply outrageous.

Qin Le pondered for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and took out a warm jade pendant from his storage ring—the very same jade pendant Ye Li had given him when they parted, so that they could stay in touch in the future.

He channeled a wisp of his divine sense into it, and after a moment, the jade glowed faintly. Qin Le then asked, "Senior Ye Li, may I ask... do you know of a cat demon who possesses the bloodlines of dragon, tiger, phoenix, and cat simultaneously?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yanran and the calico cat immediately held their breath, waiting anxiously. Their knowledge was limited, and they couldn't think of a solution, but the Demon Lord Ye Li was knowledgeable and experienced, and perhaps knew something.

Soon, Ye Li's calm voice, tinged with slight surprise, came from the Divine Jade: "Oh? You mean that little one... I know her. She has extraordinary potential, but unfortunately, the bloodline conflict was too intense. I thought she wouldn't survive this bloodline awakening period. Now it seems... she's encountered a turning point?"

"A turning point?" Qin Le's heart skipped a beat, and he pressed, "Senior Ye Li, could you explain it more clearly?"

When Li Yanran and the calico cat heard the word "turnaround," their eyes lit up simultaneously, and hope ignited in their hearts.

"Besides using a divine item like the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir to reshape her bloodline, there is another method," Ye Li's voice came clearly, "that is to forcibly balance, guide, and even fuse the conflicting bloodlines within her body using the 'Great Dao of Life.' Do you understand now?"

Ye Li did not know that Qin Le had replenished the Fountain of Life in the Underworld, but she knew that Qin Le's master was the Goddess Nuwa—the supreme being who governed the Great Dao of Life!

For her, balancing a few bloodline conflicts was a piece of cake.

"I understand." Qin Le's eyes lit up, and he already had a plan in mind. "Thank you for your guidance, senior."

"Okay, I have something to do here, so I'll hang up now." After Ye Li finished speaking, the light of the Divine Jade dimmed.

Qin Le put away the Divine Jade and turned his gaze to the nervously expectant calico cat. He extended a finger and gently tapped the cat's furry forehead.

A wisp of energy, containing strange vitality and seemingly capable of nourishing the very essence of all things, quietly flowed into the calico cat's body through her fingertips.

Qin Le had already comprehended the Great Dao of Life, but the Goddess Nuwa had instructed him not to reveal it for the time being. Now that he was making his move, this wisp of the Great Dao of Life had been concealed by Nuwa, making it difficult for outsiders to perceive its true origin.

The moment that wisp of power entered its body, the calico cat trembled violently!

She could clearly feel that the four raging bloodlines within her body, which were originally like wild horses about to erupt out of control and tear each other apart, were being gently smoothed out by an invisible hand under the intervention of this gentle yet supreme power.

The conflict quickly subsided, the violent forces were guided and channeled, and signs of slow and orderly integration began to appear!

"This...this is..."

The calico cat's bright green eyes were wide open, filled with unbelievable ecstasy. She could feel that the deadly crisis... was receding!

"Qin Le... thank you!" She looked up at Qin Le, her voice trembling with emotion.

Aside from verbal thanks, she was at a loss for words to express her gratitude for being saved.

However, no sooner had she finished speaking than Li Yanran, who had been unable to contain herself any longer, reached out and carefully yet firmly lifted her up, holding her in front of herself, a radiant smile spreading across her face, tinged with a hint of smug triumph:

"So... now, can we establish a bloodline contract?"

Clearly, Li Yanran's goal has never changed from beginning to end.
