... Sally took out a black wooden box from the System Space. Inside the box was a scroll. This scroll was her reward for giving birth, a Talent Scroll meant for her use only. When she gave birth to the Little Black Panther, she received the Fire Element Secret Technique of Green Rank as a reward from the Offspring System. She had no idea what sort of talent this scroll might grant her. Upon opening the Talent Scroll, it was another Fire Element Secret Technique, only this time the talent was of Yellow Rank, two ranks higher than Green Rank. She would have actually preferred a different talent, such as one of the Water Element. After getting up, she would no longer need to go through the trouble of washing her hands and face; a Purification Spell would leave her feeling fresh and clean. However, as the system was currently updating, Sally could not imbue the Yellow Rank talent even though she was aware of it inside the scroll. She could only wait until Xiaomei had recovered. Since her cultivation also required the System's operation, there was no need to waste time in seclusion anymore. Therefore, she left her room and took a leisurely stroll. First, she checked on the progress of the construction team. At her request, they stripped and renovated the walls, floors, stairs, and ceilings of the entire inn—hence the workers were bustling with activity. The boss of the construction team was a Beastman from the Cattle Clan, not very tall but of a sturdy build, working diligently and carefully. Sally chatted with him about the details of the renovation as well as her new ideas before leaving him in full charge. Later, she went to the tea shop opposite the inn and ordered some refreshments and tea to take to the construction crew. "I heard that the Beast Emperor's most beloved little princess is also going to enter the Divine Beast Academy this year." "Does the little princess have any talents?" "I haven't heard any. But she's not entering Divine Beast Academy to study. If she wanted to study, there are various tutors in the royal court. She... is there to select a Beast Husband." "Then this year's entrance examination will be quite lively. The little princess has already tested her Fertility Strength, which is above superior!" "Maybe I should give it a try too. I'm only two years older; that shouldn't be a problem, right?" "I'm only one year older..." Sitting by the window, Sally listened to their conversation. The princess was going to Divine Beast Academy to choose a Beast Husband? That would be competition. "Don't run—someone help stop it—" someone shouted in haste. Everyone curiously looked over. Sally was also eager to see, but suddenly her vision was obscured as something smeared across her face! "Aoowu~" came the naive and excited cry on her face. "..." Just as Sally was about to scold, she found the cry oddly endearing and hesitated for a moment before lifting her hands to pluck it off her face. A man hurried over, "I'm so sorry, so sorry, this little black panther is a new addition to our pet store and is still being trained. We've startled milady, and our pet store is willing to apologize and provide compensation." Sally looked at the chubby little black panther in her hands, its round head matched with perfect golden vertical pupils that were strikingly beautiful, betraying the animal's innocent purity. "How can you prove this little black panther is from your pet store?" she didn't immediately return the little panther to him. The man was taken aback, looking around at the onlookers, "I... but this panther is from my store. Number Eleven Pet Store in the Eastern District; has anyone here been there? I'm Xiao Ming, an employee there." "I've seen you. But this little black panther doesn't seem ordinary, look at its eyes, the golden vertical pupils, doesn't it somewhat resemble the Golden-eyed Black Panther Beast?" "The Golden-eyed Black Panther Beast? It does look a bit like one, but for the pure-blood line, only their Clan Leader remains, who has always been secluded in cultivation, and it was never heard that he took a wife, let alone had offspring." "No, no, no, let's not guess wildly. This is just an ordinary little black panther," Xiao Ming shook his head and waved his hands. "Besides, I wouldn't dare to provoke the Golden-eyed Black Panther Clan. That would be suicide." Convinced, some people tried to persuade Sally to return the little black panther to Xiao Ming. However, the little black panther was eagerly fawning over Sally in her arms, hoping she would pet it more. Sally gently rubbed its pudgy round belly and the fur smooth as satin. The more she looked, the more she liked it, "Who sold it to you?" "This... customer privacy, I can't tell you," Xiaoming said with difficulty. Sally said, "If you want to take back the Little Black Panther, it's not impossible, but have the person who sold it to you come to pick it up in person." In fact, she just wanted to buy some time. Because she also liked this little thing and wanted to take the chance to pet it for a little while longer. After thinking about it, Xiaoming said, "Alright then, I'll go find them." "Go on. I'll be right here waiting, or if I'm not here, go to the Wanfang Inn across the street and look for me, I'm now the boss of Wanfang." Sally teased the Little Black Panther, scratching it and massaging its velvety plump paws. Xiaoming had no choice but to go and find the person. Some were curious why Sally would buy a crime-ridden inn. Sally was straightforward: "It's cheap!" This indeed left people with nothing to say. Indeed, the former owner of Wanfang once said they'd sell for thirty thousand Red Coins, but no one was actually buying. Sally, holding the Little Black Panther, left the teahouse and returned to the Wanfang Inn. As soon as she entered, she saw Bai Kaixin directing workers. "Bai Kaixin, go buy some fresh meat," said Sally. Bai Kaixin looked surprised but then understood when he saw the Little Black Panther she held, "A pet you bought?" "I didn't buy it, it jumped into my arms all by itself," Sally replied, then continued toward the backyard, "Hurry up." "Okay," Bai Kaixin responded. Sally took the Little Black Panther back to her villa. Just as she was about to put it down, it clung tightly to her clothes, refusing to let go, insisting on staying in her arms. "Such a clingy little thing," Sally smiled, "How about I give you a nice fragrant bath?" The Little Black Panther cocked its head, looking at her to make sure she wasn't going to abandon it before it slowly relaxed its grip. "Aoow~" The childish voice made one's heart soften deeply. Sally took out a bottle of young beast-specialized shower gel, a towel, and a small bathtub from the System Space. She then filled a bucket with cold water and poured it into the bathtub. Lastly, she released some Fire Elemental Power into the cold water, and the temperature rose after a while. "Come on in," Sally said to the Little Black Panther. The Little Black Panther "Aoow~" and leaped into the water, splashing droplets everywhere. Sally laughed, "So naughty." When Bai Kaixin came back with fresh meat, he saw a man in a dark robe standing at the door of the inn. ... After Sally had bathed the Little Black Panther, she also fed it some vitamins to boost its immunity and some complementary food cans. These items were all part of the Birth Gift Pack, which was a miscellaneous collection of maternity and child-care products. After eating, the Little Black Panther fell into a deep slumber, purring softly. As Sally watched it sprawl on her bed with its four feet in the air, completely unguarded, a tender smile appeared on her face. "If the pet store people come, shall I just buy you, how about that?"
