Yuan Xi transmigrates into a novel about the flower market, becoming a cannon-fodder character adored by everyone and the foil to the protagonist shou.
As a hybrid of fox spirit and mei, the original owner comes with a double charm buff. He refuses to cultivate properly and only wants to seduce powerful figures and take shortcuts through dual cultivation.
But he thinks the Demon Lord is too rough and worries life with him would be hard. He thinks the eldest disciple of the Immortal Realm's Sword Sect is too aloof and probably no fun. And he thinks the Demon Realm's crown prince has a white tiger bloodline and barbed... bits. He strings the powerful men along without choosing anyone, while collecting a whole pile of rare treasures. In the end, his multiple affairs come to light, and the enraged men tear him to pieces.
By the time Yuan Xi transmigrates into the story, the powerful men have all already been seduced by the original owner.
Yuan Xi: "…"
Help!

The Sword Sect's junior granduncle discovers an interesting spirit fox outside the sect.
Unlike other spirit beasts, which use brute force to fight for territory and prey, this little guy rolls over to beg for food, enchanting the sect disciples until they're constantly running outside and scrimping to save up pills to feed the fox.
Even when nobody feeds the little fox, he's not picky. He crunches away on spirit grass.
When other spirit beasts bully him, he tucks his tail between his legs, whimpering as he runs into the sect for protection. The sect disciples end up beating the beast senseless, shouting things like "First come, first served!" as they try to make a pact with the little fox and take him as a spirit pet.
The junior granduncle acts first and brings him back to raise.
At first, the little fox is weak, pitiful, and well-behaved. He whimpers and cuddles up to him, and when he does something wrong, he puts on a ridiculous, guilty act. Later, the energetic little fox, young as he is, tears apart his cave in a fit of excitement. When spring comes, he drags out his clothes, bunches them up, and makes himself a nest.
He sniffs here and there, checking whether he's been around any other foxes, then lounges in his nest like a lord, waiting for him to peel grapes.
The junior granduncle is speechless.
He seems to have raised himself a little tyrant.

Yuan Xi is doing a fine job pretending to be a fox, but for some reason, the love rivals still show up.
But they're not here to take his life. They're here to demand a place in his heart.
The junior granduncle: "???"
#Everyone covets my fox#
#What do I do when my little fox is so popular?#
