Chapter 260

"Whoa, bad news! Vainet's here!"

She tried to run away, but Vainet had already prepared—she flashed instantly beside Gaby, grabbing her.

"Vainet, I have plans with a friend. As an angel, I can't break a promise, right?" Gaby pleaded sweetly.

"Hmph!" Vainet sneered, "It's definitely Kuma, isn't it?!"

"Wahahaha…"

"I am the great demon Satania! Gaby, I challenge you!"

A voluptuous, extremely otaku red-haired woman burst in, striking an odd pose and glaring at Gaby with an arrogant air.

"Crack!"

Suddenly, a soft sound.

The once-arrogant red-haired demon's expression changed; tears welled up as she cried, "Vainet, Vainet, my waist is sprained! Waaah…"

"Ahh…!" Vainet was utterly frantic, "What kind of problem children are you all, 247? Can't you just give me a break?"

She reached out, and with a crack, straightened Satania's twisted posture.

"Ow ow ow… Huh? It doesn't hurt anymore! Gaby, come on, let's duel!"

Gaby looked disgusted: "No way. Dueling with a fool will rub off on me."

"A fool?" Satania blinked. "I won't look down on you. Is 'fool' contagious? Did it spread to the great Satania?"

"You're the fool," Gaby replied, speechless.

"How amusing!" Rafael covered her mouth, smirking as she watched Vainet rushing about, "I wonder when Gaby's banquet will finally happen. People from other worlds must be quite interesting."

Chat group.

Hu Yifei: "I've awakened a few cats, but how do I make sure they won't be messed with by Ceng Xiaoxian and the others? These people—once they see cat-girls, their eyes go wide."

Su Xiao: "Cat-girls?"

Miyamizu Miko: "I didn't expect Master Hu awakened cats."

Hu Yifei: "What else can I do? Cats and dogs are the most common pets in the city. As for snakes and lizards—I can't even look at them without feeling weird. I certainly won't awaken those."

Butterfly Kanae: "Actually, this is simple. Since Master Hu has already awakened cats, she must have true qi—she can take out a loan for a Heaven Cave and keep the cat-girls inside. No one can enter without permission!"

Hu Yifei: "A Heaven Cave? Even the most basic one costs 100,000!"

Ying Zheng: "Don't worry about repaying, young lady. Spirit herbs grow fast in a Heaven Cave—you'll clear the debt in no time. This is a benefit, not a trap the Dao Lord set for you."

Ye Hei: "True. The returns from a Heaven Cave are enormous. Without encountering the Dao Lord, even in a cultivation world, obtaining one would be hard."

Han Paopao: "I'm the one who knows best. In my world, even Gao Jie cultivators might not have one. I took out a loan for one—I'm now officially a homeowner in this world. Hehe, at least I won't worry about cultivation resources before Ascension."

Hu Yifei: "Then thank you. But who should I contact? Not the Dao Lord—he's off traveling mountains and rivers. I wouldn't dare disturb him."

Huang Rong: "@Hu Yifei, I'm handling Heaven Cave matters now. 【Red Packet】 A standard Heaven Cave and spirit herb seeds, 2% interest, repayable in ten years. The herb seeds are a gift!"

Hu Yifei: "Whoa, so it's Huang Rong handling this? Thank you!"

Huang Rong: "So I'm famous in your world too, Hu Miss?"

Hu Yifei: "Of course! If I hadn't stopped them, half the apartment would've rushed to ask for autographs. Hey, can you sign a few?"

Huang Rong: "Of course."

Su Xiao: "Wow, Taixuan's been chilling lately (acei). Kanae and Huang Rong already handled everything—he's off chasing girls."

Miyamizu Miko: "I'm handling something too."

Su Xiao: "What are you handling, Miko?"

Miyamizu Miko: "Brewing alcohol."

Kasumigaoka Uta: "Wait—spit wine?!!"

Miyamizu Miko: "【Freaking out】 What are you thinking?! That's impossible! That's way too embarrassing—don't bring it up again, aaaaah! 【Image】 It's spirit-fruit wine! Taixuan's Heaven Cave upgraded to a Minor Heaven, and there are plenty of spirit fruits falling to the ground—too wasteful. So Yangcai and I had the spirits collect them all and brew them into wine."

Amane Yōka: "Next banquet, please try the wine we brewed!"

Su Xiao: "Spirit-fruit wine? I'm excited!"

Su Xiao: "By the way, Yotsuya, what are you handling? Did you get bullied in America?"

Yotsuya Miko: "【Slap】 What are you imagining? I'm hunting evil spirits! These things are valuable—no way I'd waste them."

Kasumigaoka Uta: "I can confirm. 【Video】"

Ye Hei: "Yukinoshita-san is in the video. Yukinoshita, are there evil spirits in your world too?"

Yukinoshita Yuki: "No. Since salvaging shipwrecks no longer pays, I'm now hunting ghosts with Kasumigaoka and Chifusa in Yotsuya's world."

Kasumigaoka Uta: "That's right—I'm earning tons now! 【Image】 I've made over a thousand points in a few days. Yotsuya's world is incredibly rich."

Su Xiao: "Whoa, Yotsuya, you're so generous."

Yotsuya Miko: "Hehe, it's not that great—I get half of all the points they earn!"

Su Xiao: "Damn, so you're splitting the loot. Controlling resources is awesome."

Hu Yifei: "You want to buy these pitch-black evil spirits from the Shangcheng?!"

Miyamizu Miko: "Of course. These evil spirits can be refined into Nine-Turn Soul-Refining Elixir—it condenses the Primordial Spirit, and the effect is amazing. Everyone wants it, but there's no stock left."

Miyamizu Miko: "But don't even think about collecting living souls—Taixuan will get angry."

Hu Yifei: "Naturally. I, Hu Yifei, would never do anything so evil."

Gaby: "Not at all! I'm just lazy—how could I do something like that?"

Su Xiao: "But didn't you often try to blow the apocalypse horn in the original story?"

Gaby: "【Covering face】 That was all when I was drunk! That's not me! The drunk me isn't me!"

Kuma: "【Shocked】 The drunk me isn't me? So stealing isn't stealing if you're reading? Gabyji!"

Gaby: "Wrong! Those were all lies—I never did any of it. 【Defiantly】"

Kikyo: "I captured some demons and ghosts and realized I can sell them too. 【Image】 Especially demons formed from resentment—they're surprisingly expensive!"
