Top-Tier Female, All Beastmen Want Her

The young man’s Beastification Value was only thirty. After Jiang Zheyu plucked away ten wisps, only twenty remained.

’I’ll save the remaining twenty wisps for next time.’

So for the rest of the time, Jiang Zheyu just picked up the pink furball, kneading and kissing it.

’This little furball’s fur is so silky! It feels amazing to touch!’

Jiang Zheyu wasn’t sure if it was her imagination, but she felt the little furball had turned an even deeper shade of pink.

No matter how much Jiang Zheyu kneaded it, it acted like a slow-moving rabbit. A little squeeze would make it twitch, and a gentle pat would cause its two long ears to droop slowly, as if it were shy.

’Such a well-behaved little pink bunny.’

Jiang Zheyu’s heart completely melted.

Finally, seeing that time was almost up, Jiang Zheyu reluctantly departed from the young man’s Spiritual Domain, leaving the little pink bunny behind.

Jiang Zheyu opened her eyes, feeling utterly content. She found the young man before her gazing back, his pink eyes veiled in a hazy mist. A shimmer of moisture glistened in their depths, and the corners of his eyes were flushed red.

She paused for a moment. ’Looks like I overdid it with the kneading. I forgot that the spiritual body and the physical body share the same sensations.’

’But he’s younger than me. He probably won’t mind me kneading his spiritual body a bit.’

’He can just think of it as a mother’s affection for her cub, or a pet owner’s love for their pet.’

The Beastman isn’t aware of what happens inside the Spiritual Domain. The thought made Jiang Zheyu feel a little less guilty.

’After all, the way I was manhandling that docile, slow little furball really felt like I was bullying him.’

"A-All right, it’s done." She still felt a bit awkward and guilty, and her voice became quieter. "Sorry about that."

Xiao Luo turned his head slightly, hiding the desire stirring in his faintly reddened eyes. "This is a normal reaction to Spiritual Comfort," he said softly. "There’s no need for you to apologize, Princess Zheyu."

’It’s just that a Beastman with a low Spiritual Power Level like him doesn’t have much self-control. It’s not Princess Zheyu’s fault.’

"Thank you so much for the Spiritual Comfort, Princess Zheyu." Xiao Luo turned back but still didn’t dare to look at Jiang Zheyu, merely lowering his head slightly. "I’ve troubled you. Please get some rest. I will take my leave now."

"Mm-hmm, okay," Jiang Zheyu agreed, nodding hurriedly.

After Xiao Luo left, Jiang Zheyu took her time choosing two outfits from the rows of clothes. One was a rather formal white suit for the Imperial City press conference, and the other was a white evening gown adorned with pearls for the banquet.

She wandered around the large room and discovered that everything had been fully prepared for her. A massive closet covering one wall was filled with rows of new, dry-cleaned clothes. There were pajamas, nightgowns, and a complete wardrobe for all four seasons.

The bathroom was also stocked with complete sets of new, clean toiletries.

She first worked on her flexibility, doing a series of stretches. Only after she had broken a sweat and rested for a bit did she go wash up.

Jiang Zheyu casually grabbed a nightgown, and after finishing her routine, she flopped down onto the soft, massive bed.

’This bed is huge,’ she thought. ’I could probably have a dance party on it.’

Jiang Zheyu slept near the edge of the bed, leaving a large empty space on the other side.

’But it doesn’t matter. I have to get up early tomorrow, so I should just get some sleep.’

But then Jiang Zheyu remembered that Feng Qi had sent a message to her contact for her "black-clad person" identity.

She had left that contact info but hadn’t checked it yet. She had no idea how many people might have reached out.

Jiang Zheyu had the system project the chat interface from that contact Light Brain.

She found that she already had 99+ messages.

Jiang Zheyu was astonished. ’Do this many people have spiritual problems?’

She randomly clicked on a new chat window. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"I can pay five million. Please, could you help heal my brother’s spiritual power?"

After a long wait with no reply from Jiang Zheyu, they sent another message.

"Six million?"

"Seven million?"

"Ten million?"

"Name your price. I can afford it."

Jiang Zheyu silently had the system set up an auto-reply: "Please provide the following information: 1. Your Spiritual Power Level and the Spiritual Power Level of the patient requiring treatment."

"2. A detailed description of the patient’s spiritual power condition."

"3. The Beastman’s detailed personal information."

Jiang Zheyu sighed softly. She realized that if she were to actually go through with this, her current S-rank spiritual power put her in a somewhat dangerous position. ’What if someone deliberately lures me over just to capture me?’

’What if they fake their Spiritual Power Level, and I only find out their power is higher than mine when I get there? I’d be in danger myself.’

Sure enough, it was easy to come up with the idea, but a host of new concerns appeared as soon as she considered putting it into action.

With that in mind, Jiang Zheyu didn’t dare to immediately accept any of the offers from the Beastmen who had contacted her.

’If my spiritual power were at the highest level, even stronger than a Male Beastman’s, then I wouldn’t have to be afraid.’

’Actually, I still have the system. I could use points to buy items from its shop to mitigate many of the risks.’

It was a classic case of risk versus reward.

Jiang Zheyu scrolled aimlessly through the messages, discovering that a large number of them didn’t actually believe she could heal a spiritual body and just wanted to arrange a meeting.

Others wanted to have their Beastification Value Purified; they believed she could do that, but they didn’t believe she could heal a spiritual body.

And then there were those who genuinely wanted their spiritual bodies healed.

As Jiang Zheyu continued to scroll, she came across a familiar Light Brain ID.

’This is Feng Qi’s Light Brain ID.’

She tapped on it to see what Feng Qi had sent.

Feng Qi: "Hello. Ninety million. Can you help me cure my unstable spiritual power?"

The message was a straightforward inquiry, but that price... As far as Jiang Zheyu could see, he was offering the most money by a long shot.

If Jiang Zheyu were a greedy person, she would definitely choose the highest bidder.

It seemed the public persona she had cultivated for the black-clad figure was, in fact, exactly that of a greedy person.

So, it was understandable that Feng Qi would make such an offer; he probably assumed the black-clad person was only motivated by money.

’So he led with an offer of ninety million right off the bat?’

’Feng Qi must be pretty loaded,’ Jiang Zheyu thought.

But that was also understandable. Feng Qi’s matching profile listed numerous military commendations; a military family like his was certain to have a lot of money.

Jiang Zheyu wanted to accept Feng Qi’s offer, but then she remembered she had things to do tomorrow and decided to hold off.

’Wait a minute,’ she thought again. ’Now that I’m a Princess, according to what Jin Yu said, guards will follow me everywhere I go!’

’Once my A+ Spiritual Power Level is announced, the Empire will protect me at all costs, which means I won’t be able to go anywhere alone.’

’But then again,’ she mused, ’this situation won’t last long. Once the novel’s heroine develops her Purification Beastification Value reagent, she’ll become the one everyone’s fighting over.’

’A female’s Spiritual Power Level will no longer be the sole determinant of her social status.’

’I’ll be free again then!’

’So I’ll just wait a bit longer. It won’t be long, anyway!’
