Tomb Raiders: After the Nine Gates Ancestor, they let loose and did whatever they wanted!

"If you like it, that's fine," Xu Zhu chuckled sheepishly, scratching his head to soften his serious demeanor.

o (￣ ▽ ￣) d

The young official tucked the fluffy little thing into his arms, afraid that he might accidentally crush it.

Carefully stroking from its round head to the tip of its tail, its eyes sparkling, I wonder which one is cuter~

?( ?'?'?)?

The fluffy creatures nearby, seeing that the little dumpling had gotten there first, boldly crowded around, chattering excitedly.

If anyone can understand it, they are probably saying...

"Qilin! Qilin! Qilin!"

??ˋ??ˊ?ヾ(*′? ˋ*)?

"Boss! Boss! Boss!"

?????? ????????? ?????????? ??????˙?????

We're here!

(((?'w')?三 ?'w')-o≡

The young official didn't dare move an inch; the furry creature was just too enthusiastic.

Lick your arms, lick your hands, and polish your shoes until they shine.

It didn't hit its face, probably because the clever little one was afraid of being punished by the little Qilin?

?? ?. ? .? ??

This was the first time the little ones had been so close to him, even excessively so.

They surrounded Xiao Zhang Qiling, feeling both warm and somewhat at a loss.

(`?w?′)ゞ

Xu Zhu could see clearly that the little official's face was tense, and through his eyes, she could see that his expression was full of...

How to do? !

(￣y▽￣)~* Cover your mouth and snicker

Ironically, he thought he had hidden it very well and remained extremely calm.

In other words, Xuzhu's dedication to raising small animals truly embodies the spirit of a devoted fan.

As Xiaozhuzhu’s favorite hobby, weapon making, or blacksmithing for short!

This is physically demanding work. While resting and reflecting, I can actively study micro-expressions, with no limit to the scope.

Otherwise, you really wouldn't be able to see the junior official's god-like facial micro-expressions!

?(●˙?˙●)????

Xiao Zhuzhu stated: Any living being with sentience will experience emotional fluctuations.

Because emotions are a part of life, they are reactions to the surrounding environment and inner experiences.

Whether human or other living beings, all experience various emotions, and the strength of those emotions varies accordingly.

Emotions are the most unstable element, and micro-expressions and facial features can serve as concrete reflections of these emotions.

It can reflect a person's emotional state.

These micro-expressions and facial expressions are unconscious and difficult to control, but they can provide more authentic emotional information.

It's better to study in advance than to learn through life experience.

Ultimately, they're all useful!

??+.?(ゝ? ??)

Who knows, maybe one day we can team up and have some fun together. The Ghost Spirit Sect's current rules...

The default setting is one skill, and only one person needs to know it.

The rest will gradually blend together over time, maximizing efficiency and sparking brilliant insights! ↗

?(????)?

It's unclear whether the Zhang family avoided such a mistake in order to protect the ultimate secret.

This is the only training we've undertaken—the generational training in maintaining a cool, aloof facade that hides one's true emotions.

( ? ? ? )?)

At first glance, she appears cold and aloof, like a pure and noble flower blooming on a snow-capped mountain.

She usually seems to float around in ethereal mist, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a fairy who doesn't eat the food of mortals.

They have incredibly rich inner lives, and every time they let loose, they leave people speechless!

(╬?? ? ?? Д ?? ? ??)

The carefully cultivated persona collapsed in an instant.

Mount Everest instantly transformed into the Mariana Trench!

Even a split personality wouldn't be this bad, yet all the Zhang family members seem to accept it as normal.

The answer is that they have their own reasons and principles.

(???e???)∫?

But it's really hard to rate! ↗

There's a sense of unbridled indulgence, regardless of whether anyone lives or dies; the phrase "live for the moment" perfectly describes it.

Completely revealed

Is it the distortion of human nature or the decline of morality?

?(?????)??!

Of course, it's completely useless for individuals with specific gene mutations or those who are very active!

Let me call out again—the talkative clan chief who caused a huge mess during the Hongwu era!

...Hahahaha (?w?) Hahahaha...

However, this seemingly sophisticated skill is actually quite unsettling upon closer inspection, sending chills down your spine.

After learning it, Xuzhu not only learned to judge the opponent's moves and mental state during fights.

"I want to win!" These three words are plastered on his forehead and etched into his every move.

The rest was all used to raise small animals, precisely controlling each and every Hakimi.

It's so glossy and vibrant!

?(?e? )?

Relatives who are no longer close to each other

Even the proud and aloof ones are easy to coax.

The one that used to shed a lot no longer sheds.

……

In short, the main goal is to find an obedient, easy-to-raise, well-behaved, and intelligent child!

However, Xuzhu initially didn't have any forward-thinking ideas about this observation skill.

He studies micro-expressions simply because he genuinely loves animals and wants to better understand their emotions and needs.

As for additional effects, they should be applied flexibly and adaptably, for example, now.

Even though Xuzhu's expression wasn't as obvious as others, she still felt...

Human babies and small animals both need a lot of care to grow up healthily!

Look how stupid this little brat has become, thanks to the Zhang family!

Σσ? ?°???)° ??

"Feel free to mess with them. Once they've gained sentience, they're quite clever. Don't let their small size fool you, they're very sturdy."

If it gets broken, just ask Ji-yoon and Ji-sang to fix it. They'll be happy to help, don't worry!

Ji-yoon: We try not to hunt actively in our daily lives. If we really can't save them, they'll be ready-made cadavers.

(′?`??)

Zhisheng: I can't wait to know the difference in structure between living and dead things!

Practice makes perfect! This way, the styles and materials of the puppet dolls can be updated in a timely manner.

(′▽`??)

Xu Zhu paused for a moment, then continued, "Moreover... they have already sensed it."

Are you a majestic and powerful little Qilin?

Perhaps they see you as one of their own, and they are looking up to you.

Do I hope that one day I can become a human?

Are you trying to curry favor with the boss here? ↗

Even I have to stay to the back.

Xu Zhu was a little annoyed and expressed her confusion about the matter.

After all, once intelligence is acquired, many things become uncontrollable.
