As the morning sunshine streamed through the window into the bedroom, the first scene Yu Sheng saw upon opening his eyes was four Erins sprawled across his bed...

Meanwhile, half of his own body was nearly hanging off the side of the bed.

To be fair, a 66.6cm puppet doesn't exactly take up much space, even if she spins a full three hundred and sixty degrees in her sleep, it wouldn't cause much chaos. But four puppets rolling around in their sleep is clearly another matter—this one managed to execute over twenty sets of Drunk Fist on the bed overnight, complete with the occasional sudden flying kick and headbutt. Who could tolerate that?

Yu Sheng recalled the pile of kicks and punches he received, couldn't help but sigh, pondering if agreeing to create a new body for this little puppet was a mistake, then with an aching back and sore waist, he sat up on the edge of the bed. Just as he was about to brush his teeth and wash up, he heard a few groggy voices from behind: "Good morning *yawn*...""I dreamt of fighting someone.""Up so early today?""I got tangled in the blanket! Get me out of here!"

Yu Sheng sighed helplessly, turned around, and rescued the little thing struggling inside the blanket, muttering, "You need to find another place to sleep, or at least spread some of your bodies out."

Then he was greeted by protests from all four (previously three) voices: "Why? Your room is so big, can't you leave some space for me..."

"Look at how many bodies you have now!" Yu Sheng immediately widened his eyes, "My bed and even the bedside table aren't enough for you to mess around! I'm almost sleeping on the floor in the morning!"

Only then did Erin survey the surroundings, all four bodies exchanging embarrassed glances on the bed before awkwardly scratching their heads, "Hey don't be so serious... Let's just make do for now, if more bodies pop up I'll move a few to the attic..."

"Stop with the excuses, these days I'll go online to order a few doll storage boxes for you. From now on, leave one Master Control on the bed, and the others can crawl into boxes to sleep," Yu Sheng waved his hand, rudely interrupting Erin's chatter, "Good grief, silently encroaching on my sleeping space..."

And then he inevitably faced a cycle of four voices chattering in protest from the little puppets.

But he was used to it, knowing that if he ignored them for three minutes, the world would return to peace.

And just as his experience had taught him—after washing up, Erin seemed to have forgotten her impending consignment to the boxes and began happily running around the room.

One of the Erins was noticeably slower in movement than the other bodies.

Yu Sheng looked at her with some surprise: "Is your Pro max version body not recovered yet?"

"It's mostly recovered, just feels heavier than the other bodies," Pro Erin stopped her morning jogging to retort, while moving her limbs around, "Maybe the previous energy overdraft was too severe? Seems like I need full energy recharge to completely recover..."

"...Your charging speed is absurdly slow," Yu Sheng frowned instinctively, "You've been charging since yesterday and still haven't reached full power?"

Erin, too was helpless: "What can I do?! I don't understand whatever Hu Li was saying about 'Ancient Cultivation Methods', nor do I know how to gather nature's spiritual energy. Unlike Hu Li, I can't refine spiritual energy just by eating—should I chew on the power cables instead?"

Yu Sheng burst into laughter: "Well, give it a try. If you end up completely charred, I'll toss you into the washing machine."

The little puppet let out a howl and charged towards him, but due to the clumsy reflexes of this body, she slipped just as she leapt, and ended up sprawling face down at Yu Sheng's feet...

Yu Sheng, accustomed to her unreliable antics, picked her up and washed her, then frowned again, somewhat absent-mindedly gazing out the window.

Erin, having already forgotten her anger, seeing this was curious: "What are you looking at?"

"I don't know why," Yu Sheng hesitated, "since waking up today I just feel a bit restless."

"Is your spiritual intuition bouncing around again?"

"Not spiritual intuition, just plain intuition, it feels like something might happen," Yu Sheng seriously pondered and shook his head, "but there's no sense of crisis, probably not something bad."

Erin thought for a while and her eyes suddenly lit up: "Should I give you a fortune-telling?"

Yu Sheng was taken aback: "You can do that?!"

"Of course! I'm an Alice Puppet! Brimming with occult talents!" Erin boasted, patting her chest, then all four bodies ran together to the bedside table, cooperatively pulling out a box of playing cards from the drawer, sitting in a circle on the floor putting on airs, shuffling, drawing cards, mumbling all the way, "Let me tell you, I'm so good at divination, card reading and crystal reading are just basics, I even know wine divination, which involves a golden goblet—or gilded works too—then pouring witch wine—in fact, cooking wine works too, lighting incense beside—or mosquito coils work too, and observing the illusions in the liquid..."

Yu Sheng stood beside, listening to the little thing's chatter, finally spoke up uncertainly after watching for a while: "...but I see you just playing solitaire with yourself."

"You don't understand!" Erin (nobody knows which version) threw the cards in her hand onto the ground, "Card divination isn't about the form of the cards used, it's about the diviner's insight into fate—for instance, I can see you have a disaster with blood today from this round..."

Yu Sheng felt relieved once he heard that.

Because Erin claimed he had a disaster with blood every day.

At the same time, near the intersection at No. 66 Wutong Road, a tall and handsome young man in casual attire was strolling leisurely out from an alley.

After walking a while forward, the young man saw that the road was near its end, with only an empty field ahead and no other houses.

"It should be here…" The young man stood on the spot observing for a moment, then took out a slip of paper from his pocket, looking at the notes written on it, "Hmm, the address is indeed here…"

As he spoke, the handsome young man put away the slip of paper, then glanced around to see no one was there, and stood at the intersection, bowing towards the direction of the empty field, then with a hand brushing over his eyes and the other forming a few spells, his aura momentarily shifted.

Strands of hazy spiritual light appeared in his eyes, and the young man opened his eyes to slowly sweep across the empty field before him.

Before he saw anything appear on the empty field, two people had already dashed out of a small house with a sign for a courier collection point, charging towards him like a gust of wind, shouting as they ran, "Hey, hey, hey! Who are you? What are you doing? Don't move!" "Restricted zone! Restricted zone! Do you have a permit?"

The handsome young man was instantly stunned.

After a moment of interaction, he and the two Special Service Bureau officers temporarily assigned here exchanged glances.

"You say you've reported to the Special Service Bureau and are here to visit the owner of No. 66 Wutong Road?" The young Special Service Bureau officer asked seriously.

The handsome young man quickly retrieved his credentials, "Ah, yes, here's my pass, signed personally by your director…"

The two Special Service Bureau officers took his credentials, checked them carefully, then took out their phones to confirm the situation, finally returning the credentials, though still somewhat puzzled, "You just came over like this? By yourself?"

"Yes," the handsome young man nodded calmly, but quickly added, "Oh, I came to Boundary City a few years ago, so I roughly know the roads in the old city. Besides, this is a private matter arranged by my master, it wouldn't be good to trouble your bureau too much, so I handled the procedures and came here by myself."

Speaking of this, he paused, feeling a sense of admiration, "I just didn't expect the expert's method of seclusion to be so exquisite, with prohibitions around, I was reckless…"

"You were indeed reckless! You should have found out the situation clearly before coming!" The other Special Service Bureau officer looked helpless, "Within a hundred-meter radius around No. 66 Wutong Road, it is strictly forbidden to use any extraordinary power and to employ any unconventional means to spy or probe here. There are warning signs painted at the nearby intersections, didn't you see them?"

The handsome young man felt awkward, "…I used the Shrinking Earth into Inches method to get here."

The two Special Service Bureau officers exchanged glances, muttering to themselves:

"I told you those warning signs need to be put further away, how is a hundred meters enough."

"Just moving the signs won't help, we might as well ask the higher-ups for a sanction generator."

"That could work… but aren't we changing posts in a couple of days?"

"Let's report this first, gotta make a record."

"Gentlemen," the young man had been waiting for a while beside them, finally unable to resist speaking up, "Could you help inform them for me? My master's order…"

"Ah, okay, okay, sorry," one of the Special Service Bureau officers finally reacted, nodding quickly, "Just wait a moment, I'll give the people inside the house a call."

A moment later, the handsome young man arrived at the edge of the empty field with some confusion and stood before a brick in one place. He looked down and found that the brick had a notable horizontal stripe painted with red paint, with "Please pay attention when opening the door" written beneath the stripe - the paint was evidently new, and in the corner, a small tuft of silver-white fuzz stuck to the painted surface could be seen, possibly from a cat or dog passing by and sticking their tail when the paint had not dried.

And even now, he could not perceive any signs of a hidden cave mansion.

Indeed a master—

The handsome young man thought to himself, and in the next moment, he saw a door suddenly appear before him.

Without any warning, without any aura, a simple large door opened before him, and an equally simple figure appeared at the door.

Xuan Che looked at the master at the door.

Yu Sheng looked at the handsome guy in front of him.

The two were quiet for a few seconds.

"It's you?!"

"Oh my god, a bloody disaster!"
