The Cat Above the Law

After awakening as a Guide, Lin Ying was always terribly sleepy. He could sleep for more than ten hours a day without getting hungry. Instead, the more he slept, the more radiant and well-nourished he looked. He was an orphan who didn't awaken as a Guide until he was twenty. Before that, he was always hungry, and looked so young he could have passed for a minor. Even after awakening as a Guide, his rank was only F, so Lin Ying couldn't get much in the way of financial support. So for Lin Ying, sleeping was a low-cost, high-value activity. But it also troubled him. He must have been dreaming, but he could never remember his dreams. Every time he woke up, his spirit form would inexplicably have some strange thing caught in its claws or mouth. Sometimes it was a scale, sometimes a feather, and once it was a huge clump of fur. A really huge clump. Lin Ying didn't know why, but whenever he held that fur, guilt kept welling up from the bottom of his heart. Oh, right. Lin Ying's spirit form was an incredibly, incredibly adorable silver tabby Maine Coon. He'd been malnourished before, and something had gone wrong with his spirit form, leaving the cat with a somewhat short tail, but it was still adorable. It kept getting bigger as it ate, but Maine Coons were big cats. Nothing wrong with that. The days passed. Then one day, the Federation's nine major powers suddenly issued a joint bounty of nine hundred million Federation credits, seeking a dark Guide with a lynx spirit form, ranked at least 3S. Word was, this Guide was not only a combat type but also possessed the ability to plunder. He had attacked and provoked nine 3S Sentinels, and had repeatedly tried to break into the regent's forbidden resting grounds. He was extremely brazen and his conduct was utterly vile, so he had to be sent to the Interstellar Court for severe punishment. The star sectors were in an uproar. Nine hundred million Federation credits. Who wouldn't be tempted? Holding his spirit form's enormous head, Lin Ying looked at the cat's face, which closely resembled a lynx's, and joked with a grin, "Tell me, baby, what did you do to those Sentinels? Rob them or something?" The big cat with the short tail looked utterly innocent. Later, Ming Jian, the regent who had been repeatedly harassed during his seclusion, awoke and came to Lin Ying with evidence. The cat in question, dressed up as a little maid, had a bashful, shy look on its furry face. Hugging his spirit form, Lin Ying felt as though lightning had struck him. "M-me?" The lawless cat with the nine-hundred-million-credit bounty?! Reader's Guide: ⭐The spirit form really is a lynx. ⭐At night, Lin Ying sleepwalks and controls his spirit form to eat jellyfish, tease tigers, and kick lions. Being wanted by the law is what the cat deserves, hahaha. Blurb dated 2025/12/7, screenshot saved as a record Coming next: My Master Was Once a Dragon-Attitude Protagonist Yan Xun was a wuxia fan. So when the System came to him and asked him to transmigrate into a wuxia world, Yan Xun agreed without hesitation. Yan Xun dreamed of riding the handsomest horse, drinking the strongest liquor, and falling for the most beautiful person... Then he opened his eyes and found himself beneath a red bridal veil. The rookie System, having sent him to the wrong world, cried a river of tears. Yan Xun lifted the veil and fell silent. Well, he hadn't gotten himself a beauty. He'd become the beauty who was about to be married off. Luckily, the Immortal Venerable he was engaged to practiced the Heartless Dao. He broke off the engagement through a master-disciple pact, saving straight-guy Yan's virtue. To complete his mission, raise enough affection points, and transmigrate to the wuxia world, Yan Xun began diligently earning affection wherever he went. From the Grand Elder down to the gatekeeping servant, even the dogs he passed got a couple of meat buns from Yan Xun. Of them all, his master, who practiced the Heartless Dao, was Yan Xun's favorite. Ying Buran was nothing like those Heartless Dao masters in the usual web novels. He wasn't a sword cultivator, nor was he cold and stern. Instead, he seemed gentle and handsome. Though he held a high position and was famous, he could still disguise himself and play with children. It was said that in his early years, he'd followed a pure Dragon-Attitude Protagonist path, achieving enlightenment in the mortal world and entering the true Heartless Dao after seeing through the meaning of love. He was nothing like those Heartless Dao practitioners who were like ice cream, melting as soon as they were warmed, having never experienced either warmth or cold. Now that was solid! So straight-guy Yan grew increasingly unrestrained in his advances. After all, raising other people's affection too high could easily lead to romantic entanglements, but his master had seen every kind of situation in his youth. There was no way he'd fall for him! A Heartless Dao master was reliable! As Yan Xun kept raising affection, he wound up in a love-triangle standoff, with three different factions all proposing to him at once. When three heart-fluttering suitors, each with a different appeal, came to ask for his hand, the usually gentle, easygoing Immortal Venerable lost his smile for the first time. Then he went into seclusion. Before Yan Xun could figure out what to do, his master emerged from seclusion and locked him beneath the bed curtains with a dark look in his eyes. Yan Xun panicked. "System! Help! What is going on?! Isn't my master a Dragon-Attitude Protagonist who practices the Heartless Dao?!" So he'd gone into seclusion to break through his Heartless Dao?! The System stammered, "But your master was a Dragon-Attitude Protagonist before he became a Heartless Dao practitioner!" A Dragon-Attitude Protagonist was the kind of ruthless powerhouse who could return to the peak even after breaking the Heartless Dao and losing all his cultivation. Watching the Heartless Dao break, the Immortal Venerable looking as if he had only a sliver of health left but proving exceptionally formidable in a fight grew more and more unhinged and dangerous. The System muttered under its breath: "Yikes. Maybe we should just accept it. I think your master could screw you right through the bed frame." Later, Yan Xun angrily went to the System to argue his case and ask for compensation. The System gave up trying. "Just tell me, did you get to ride the most beautiful person with the strongest spirit?" Yan Xun: "?" Had he really said that before?!
