Their commission was suspicious.

"Yukari Yakumo, you bastard." After leaving the shrine, Chen Luo said without any mercy.

"Don't say that. Aren't we both getting what we need? Alright, give me back the fan." Yakumo Yukari held out her hand to Chen Luo.

"Tch, you didn't even offer to give me the fan." Chen Luo tossed the fan back to Yakumo Yukari with disdain.

"Alright, I'll head back to Gensokyo first. You'll have to find your own way." Yukari Yakumo instantly retreated several meters, her entire body swallowed by the gap.

"Yukari Yakumo! You broke your promise!"

"No, no, no, I kept my word. I'll have Ran teach your little fox how to transform, but the problem is, I said I could take you to Gensokyo, and you didn't accept the conditions, did you? So, go there yourself. Baka!" Yukari Yakumo was completely swallowed by the gap, and what disappeared last was a right hand with its middle finger raised.

"Tsk, Yukari Yakumo really is a bastard. She's really good at playing word games. Although it's possible to use the Herrscher of the Void's abilities to go to Gensokyo, it's very troublesome." Chen Luo couldn't help but rub his forehead.

After all, anything involving spatial abilities is bound to be troublesome.

"But... does this Yakumo Yukari think I only saw his fan for fun?" Chen Luo's lips curled into a sinister smile.

How about a portable teleportation anchor?

Chen Luo knew that Yukari Yakumo was a bastard and would definitely do even more despicable things.

"My lady, you're back." Yakumo Ran, who had already prepared hot tea and was waiting for Yakumo Yukari's return, said respectfully.

As a shikigami, Yakumo Ran can naturally receive commands from Yakumo Yukari at any time.

"Yes, things are done, and I'm in a very good mood now. Let's go to Hakugyokurou in a bit." Yakumo Yukari put her fan aside, in a very pleasant mood.

Not only did she achieve her goal, but she also tricked Chen Luo, and Yukari Yakumo was in a very good mood.

When you're in a good mood, you naturally go to find your old flame.

Yuyuko, hehe, Yuyuko...

Yes, no one can offend me, Yakumo Yukari, and escape unscathed! No one!

But just as Yukari Yakumo took a sip of tea, she suddenly sensed something was wrong, because she saw Ran Yakumo sitting opposite her, staring at her with a shocked expression.

No, to be precise, it's looking behind you.

Yukari Yakumo turned her head instantly, only to see a dark gun barrel.

"Yukari Yakumo, I wasn't lying." A familiar voice rang out coldly, followed by the sound of a trigger being pulled.

"boom!"

As I said before, Chen Luo and Yakumo Yukari together have a combined total of 18,000 schemes, with Yakumo Yukari accounting for the majority.

While Chen Luo wasn't as cunning as Yakumo Yukari, he was sufficient in his abilities.

Chapter 490 Chen Luo: Lan, would you like to try some fried tofu? (Looking forward to being repaid with gratitude)

"Lan, try this. This is the fried tofu I prepared for you. It's a specially packaged deluxe version, and it tastes pretty good." Chen Luo placed a plate of fried tofu in a deluxe gift box on the table and pushed it toward Yakumo Lan. Then, he casually picked up the little fox who was trying to pounce on the fried tofu and pulled it aside again.

Little fox, little fox, don't you know how to give a gift when you ask someone for a favor?

They're going to teach you how to transform, so what's wrong with giving them your dinner?

"Waaaaah!"

"Alright, alright, don't worry. You can skip dinner and I'll make you a midnight snack instead," Chen Luo comforted the little fox.

"Gu..."

Then Chen Luo closed his eyes just as Yakumo Ran was about to open the lunchbox.

A flash of golden light appeared.

That's right, I put a flashbang in the fried tofu!

Ahem, this fried tofu is the kind of dish that tastes like mom's cooking, and you can only buy it for 5 raw stones.

"Thank you for this gift." Yakumo Ran didn't refuse the fried tofu after smelling its aroma, because she knew that it wouldn't be too difficult for Chen Luo, as a bar owner, to make this kind of fried tofu.

It's precious to me, but not a big deal to the other person.

However, Yakumo Ran's gaze remained somewhat unfocused, eventually drifting to Yakumo Yukari beside her.

“I’ve already made a contract with Yukari Yakumo. After I helped her get things done, she asked you to teach my little fox how to transform. Isn’t that right, Yukari Yakumo?” Chen Luo nudged Yukari Yakumo with his foot.

"Hahaha, yes, hahaha, Chen Luo, hahaha, quickly cancel the effect of this broken gun, hahaha."

"Sorry, once this gun's effect kicks in, I can't stop it." Chen Luo said, pushing Yakumo Yukari, who was clutching her stomach and had rolled over to the side, to the other side, before quickly sneaking back into the other world.

Chen Luo's ability to stealth into a virtual position does not require a cooldown, nor does it require any prerequisite spells or methods.

The next moment, a small crater was punched into the spot where Chen Luo was sitting by Yakumo Yukari's delicate little fist, demonstrating the immense strength and ferocity of Yakumo Yukari.

"Hahaha, damn it..." Yakumo Yukari laughed angrily.

If she hadn't been shot, it would still be uncertain whether Yukari Yakumo could have hit Chen Luo, given her level of spatial control. But now, it's completely impossible.

Yukari Yakumo's ability to transcend boundaries is quite remarkable; she can not only travel to different locations, but she can even travel into paintings, which is quite outrageous.

However, all skills related to space, time, etc. are extremely difficult and cannot be used without distraction. Right now, Yukari Yakumo is not only not distracted, she's practically bursting with laughter.

"..." Yakumo Ran ate the fried tofu that Chen Luo had given her, one bite at a time, with a somewhat worried expression.

His master was practically bursting with laughter, but was it really appropriate for him to be eating fried tofu here?

But Yakumo Ran doesn't have any good solutions either.

If Yukari Yakumo is laughing so hard, wouldn't it be like I'm just offering myself up as food if I went up there?

"Miss Lan, do you think my little Ba has any chance or possibility of transforming into human form? And is my little Ba considered one of the better-looking foxes?" Chen Luo asked after placing the little fox on the table.

“I will answer your questions one by one, but her name is Hachi? Hmm…” Yakumo Ran was not actually guessing or commenting on the name, but she felt that the name was more or less inconsistent with the image of this little fox.

"Xiao Ba is a nickname, a nickname," Chen Luo emphasized.

To prove he wasn't bad at naming things, Chen Luo felt he needed to explain.

"Oh, what's her real name?" Yakumo Ran asked curiously.

Although the name has nothing to do with whether a fox can transform into a human, Yakumo Ran is very curious.

Not only Yakumo Ran, but even Xiao Ya looked at Chen Luo with some curiosity.

So, my name has always been a nickname?

"Uh, I haven't picked it up yet." Chen Luo gave an awkward but polite smile.

"...Never mind, it has nothing to do with the name, but I suggest that after the other person successfully transforms, you give them a more formal name that will stay with them for life," Yakumo Ran said with a sigh.

"Okay, okay. I really envy Yakumo Yukari for being able to be lazy. Since your name is Yakumo Yukari, I'll just give you the name Ran."

Yukari Yakumo's naming method is quite simple and straightforward, but it works very well.

And they are quite neat and uniform.

"Xiao Ba definitely has a chance of transforming into human form, or rather, a very high chance. Her intelligence and the abundance of spiritual power within her body have reached a high level. With her physique, she can successfully transform into human form if nothing unexpected happens."

"It's just that because the worlds are different, I can't say for sure whether the other person's transformation will be within my expectations." Yakumo Ran hesitated.

Ran Yakumo never dreamed that one day she would be explaining to a fox from another world how to transform into human form.

“You don’t need to worry about that. She’s not from our world; she’s from another world, but I’m not sure which one. So, in a sense, the transformation methods of our world might not be suitable for her, and they’ve been lost for a long time,” Chen Luo said.

"Mr. Chen Luo, you don't need to worry too much. In fact, no matter which world it is, there is a process of transformation. Just like butterflies first become caterpillars and then break out of their cocoons to become butterflies."

“Mr. Chen Luo, what you don’t understand is just the basic common sense in this area.”

"The safest way is to let the other party's spiritual power accumulate, and you will involuntarily take human form. Of course, you can also use the method of transformation, but it may not be applicable to different worlds." Yakumo Ran was still somewhat uncertain.

The main concern was that if Yakumo Ran failed to transform, Chen Luo would cause her trouble.

"There's no need to worry about safety. I'll use my abilities to help them assess the chances of success," Chen Luo said.

"Well, you can worry about that yourself. Transformation is easier when the demonic or spiritual power within the body is more abundant."

“The spiritual energy is abundant… Here, Little Eight, wear this, and then eat some of this.” After thinking for a moment, Chen Luo directly hung the Elemental Eye, which was transformed from the Void Treasury, around the little fox’s neck, then threw down a spirit stone and gestured to the little fox.

"Goo?" The little fox looked at the spirit stone that Chen Luo had thrown on the table, hesitated for a moment, and then bit into it.

After pausing for two seconds, the little fox looked at Chen Luo with teary eyes, then spat out the spirit stone from its mouth.

It looks like... it's been pressed quite hard.

"Alright, this thing doesn't look like it's edible. But you should still wear it." After thinking for a moment, Chen Luo took back the Void Treasury and hung the mid-grade spirit stone around the other person's neck.

This mid-grade spirit stone was given to Chen Luo by Yun Lian'er.

They gave me quite a bit.

Since Chen Luo frequently uses the Void Treasury, it's best to use spirit stones instead.

With a spirit stone hanging around my neck, my cultivation should be faster, right?

"Cultivating spiritual power... I cultivate demonic power. Although I have some spiritual power cultivation methods that I don't know where I got them from, if we're talking about collecting them, I should ask my master. After all, there's a big difference between spiritual power and demonic power." Yakumo Ran looked at Yakumo Yukari, who had been acting as the background music provider.

"No problem, I'll handle her later," Chen Luo said after glancing at Yakumo Yukari.

To reiterate, Chen Luo may not be as cunning as Yakumo Yukari, but he's shrewd enough.

Putting everything else aside, Chen Luo simply didn't believe that Yakumo Yukari didn't want to read the supplementary information about other Touhou games.

Also, Yukari Yakumo has always wanted to go to another world.

"..." Yakumo Ran did not want to offer any advice on this matter.

Subsequently, Yakumo Ran gave Chen Luo a copy of all the most mainstream transformation techniques in this world, a total of 8 copies.

"One last question, as for whether Xiao Ba is considered pretty in the fox world... well, she's quite pretty."

Whether something is good-looking or not is something that cannot be quantified, but in Yakumo Ran's opinion, the little fox does have something special.

Upon hearing Yakumo Ran's praise, the little fox proudly raised its head.

"What's there to be proud of? They were just being polite, and you actually took it seriously."

Chen Luo was truly impressed by this little fox.

"Waaaaah!"

The little fox was truly impressed by Chen Luo, the sixth brother.

"The little fox's intelligence is indeed high enough. Although it is not as intelligent as ordinary people now, it can be seen that the other party seems to have suffered some kind of injury. Before the injury, it must have been a very intelligent being. I am not sure how strong it is, but its intelligence is definitely high enough."

"Therefore, by breaking down and rebuilding after being injured, one might be able to reach an even higher level. Of course, the key is that the other party laid a very good foundation for healing in the initial stage after the injury. There were no lingering health problems," Lan said, sizing up the little fox.

Since Yakumo Yukari said she would have Yakumo Ran teach the little fox how to transform, and she herself had eaten the fried tofu Chen Luo gave her, she would definitely observe carefully as a way of repaying the debt of gratitude.

"The treatment after the injury... although the conditions can't be said to be very good, the treatment will definitely be done in a steady and methodical manner."

If Chen Luo remembers correctly, he had wasted one of his three-colored dumplings while healing the other party.

At the same time, Chen Luo also used his level-two medical teleportation point to treat the other party.

"I just hope the little fox will grow bigger when it grows up, so it can have a mount," Chen Luo said, looking at the little fox.

"Huh? You want to ride her?" Yakumo Ran was taken aback.

"What's wrong? Is it not allowed?"

"That's not it. In fact, the opponent's current strength is enough to support the weight of a young man. Once he reaches the point of being able to take human form, his load-bearing capacity will inevitably increase as well."

So... whose fox transforms into human form to be used as a mount?

"You mean the little fox can be ridden now?" Chen Luo asked, his face beaming with delight.

"???" Yakumo Ran tilted her head.

Something's wrong with you.

"!!!" Upon hearing Chen Luo's words, the little fox instantly turned to face Chen Luo, looking at him warily.

The little fox isn't quite mature enough yet; at least not to the level of a normal adult. I'd estimate it's about the age of a seven or eight-year-old child.

It may be a bit of a bear, but its intelligence is quite normal; it can understand human speech.

However, that's about all it can do.

Right now, 99% of what the other person is thinking about is eating, sleeping, waking up, playing, playing, eating, eating, sleeping...

Simply put, this is already a useless fox.

But now it might be usable for riding.
