People are in the magic card, instigating rebellion against the world.

Chapter 119 Touya-kun and I did indeed have a very beautiful time together.

A soft footstep sounded.

A figure slowly emerged from the shadows of the house; it was Kanzuki Kaho.

She still had a gentle smile on her face and spoke naturally: "Good evening, everyone."

"Mr. Mizuki!" Sakura whispered.

She had just witnessed her past with her brother in the past.

Seeing you in person at this moment is such a strange and awkward feeling.
Sakura avoided eye contact, not daring to look directly at Mizuki.

Tomoyo remained calm and nodded gently to Mizuki as a greeting.

Li Xiaolang kept a tense expression throughout, his sword already in his hand, watching Guan Yue warily, showing no sign of letting his guard down.

"I sensed someone had entered the shrine, so I came to check," Mizuki explained with a smile. "It seems I made the right choice."

Ye Hui blinked.

It's not just that they didn't come to the wrong place; they probably knew they were here all along.

"Was that powerful force of time you released just now, Ye?" Guan Yue asked Ye Hui directly, without beating around the bush.

[Moon-Viewing Song Sails' Emotional Value +12]

"It's just borrowing the power of the Clow Cards; it's not my own ability."

Ye Hui answered casually, waved the time card in his hand, and then quickly put it into his system inventory.

Guan Yue's smile remained unchanged: "Student Ye is truly a hidden talent."

[Moon-Viewing Song Sails' Emotional Value +15]

"Teacher Guanyue, you're the one who's been watching the show from the sidelines for so long. Don't you get tired?" Ye Hui asked with a smile.

Since none of us are ordinary people, there's no need to hide anything.

Guan Yue paused for a moment, then chuckled softly, her voice clear and crisp: "Ye-kun is really interesting."

[Moon-Viewing Song Sails' Emotional Value +14]

She did not deny it, which can be considered as tacitly acknowledging Ye Hui's statement.

"I'm just curious how you'll deal with the card that returned," Guan Yue said frankly, her gaze drifting towards the direction of the sacred tree, her tone tinged with melancholy. "After all, that card involves some... past karmic connections."

Upon hearing this, Sakura immediately recalled the scene she had seen in the illusion, and her cheeks turned even redder.

She hesitated for a long time before finally stammering, "Um... Ms. Mizuki... you... you and my brother..."

The words were on the tip of my tongue, but I didn't know how to ask them.

You can't just ask directly, "Did you date my brother?"

Seeing Sakura's embarrassed expression, Mizuki's smile deepened. She asked softly, "Kinomoto-kun, are you trying to talk about me and your brother Touya-kun?"

Sakura gave a soft "hmm".

“Those are all things of the past, just like what you just saw.” Mizuki let out a soft breath.

She really knew what they had seen!
"Touya-kun and I did have a very wonderful time together."

"But that wasn't true love. We just met someone who was very similar to us at the wrong time, and we comforted each other."

Mizuki looked at Sakura with a serious expression: "Just like I told him back then, he will find someone he truly loves, and so will I."

Sakura nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

Although she still felt that her brother and Ms. Mizuki would definitely be a good match standing together.

But since the person involved had already said so, she couldn't ask any more questions.

"So what exactly is the purpose of your visit to Tomoeda Town?" Li Xiaolang suddenly asked.

Mizuki turned to him and answered frankly, "I came here, naturally, for the Clow Cards."

"You're also a descendant of Clow Reed?" Li Xiaolang frowned and gripped his sword tightly.

"No, I am not."

Guan Yue shook her head and repeated what she had said before, "Just like I said last time, I am just... someone who has been guided."

She raised her head and looked up at the bright full moon in the sky, her eyes becoming deep and distant.

"The Clow Cards created by Clow Reed are about to have a new owner. And I am here to witness it all."

This statement is cryptic and enigmatic, typical of a riddle teller.

Sakura and the others definitely wouldn't understand.

Ye Hui also grimaced upon hearing this.

These magicians are really something else.

Everyone likes to leave things unsaid and act mysterious. Can't they just be straightforward and say they're here to help Sakura transition to the Clow Cards?
Is saying this going to break some kind of taboo?

Li Xiaolang clearly didn't believe this explanation, and his tone became even colder: "How do I know you don't have ulterior motives?"

"Believe it or not, it's up to you." Guan Yue simply smiled faintly, not intending to explain further.

Then, her gaze returned to Ye Hui, her eyes filled with a hint of inquiry: "Ye Hui, your power is very special. If there is an opportunity, I would like to have a good talk with you."

This is... an invitation to communicate being extended proactively?

Ye Hui raised an eyebrow, then smiled, "Of course, I'm also very interested in Ms. Mizuki."

[Moon-Viewing Song Sails' Emotional Value +12]

"Well, it's getting late, I should go back."

Guan Yue gave a graceful bow to the group and said in a gentle tone, "I apologize for disturbing you tonight, everyone. Good night."

After saying that, she turned and walked along the stone path into the depths of the shrine. Her long red hair flashed in the night and quickly disappeared into the shadows of the buildings.

Xiao Ke watched her retreating figure, let out a long breath, and said with lingering fear, "Her magic is so strong, it feels even more powerful than mine..."

And that breath.

It also looks a bit like the moon...

Ye Hui glanced at it and retorted, "Looking at you like this, who has weaker magic than you?"

"You brat, what did you say!" Little Ke was so angry that its feathers bristled and its wings flapped incessantly.

[Kerberos's Mood Value +15]

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. It's getting late, let's go home and get some sleep, otherwise I might be late again tomorrow."

Sakura quickly smoothed things over, stopping Kero from arguing back.

On the way down the mountain, the evening breeze carried the coolness of the mountains.

Sakura, however, remained absent-minded, her steps slow and hesitant.

She was still savoring everything she had just seen in the illusion of time and space.

The older brother's youthful and innocent appearance, the unspoken understanding between him and Mizuki, and Mizuki's final words about the past.
After a long silence, Sakura couldn't help but ask, "Yoko, do you think... my brother will really find someone he likes?"

"Of course I will," Ye Hui answered without hesitation.

Not only will he, but isn't that person right beside him right now?
"Then... what about Ms. Mizuki? Can she find her too?" Sakura asked again.

“She can do it too.” Ye Hui nodded.

Her boyfriend is still in England, so there's no rush.

Hmm, they should still be in the UK, right?
"That's good..." Upon receiving a positive answer, Sakura finally smiled with relief.

After saying goodbye to Tomoyo and Sakura, Ye Hui returned to his villa.

He leaned back on the sofa, sorting out the events of the evening.

Just like in the original story, Mizuki is mysterious and powerful. Her precognitive abilities can even penetrate time and space to sense their presence.

As for Touya and her past...

Ye Hui could only sigh inwardly, "This entertainment circle is truly chaotic."

However, it was still quite satisfying to witness this gossip firsthand.

After that, wouldn't they have more in common to talk about with Touya?

At that time, won't the emotional value just keep rising?

more importantly.

Tonight he also gained the supernatural power of "Returning to the Source of All Things"!
It caused all things in the universe to flow backward, returning to their original state.

Just from the introduction, it exudes the aura of a powerful weapon!
But Ye Hui knew very well that with his current Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivation, it was impossible for him to reverse the flow of all things in heaven and earth.

It is estimated that at most, it can only reverse the time of certain objects by a few moments within a small range.

However, this is already quite powerful. As his strength increases, the effects of this supernatural power will become even more diverse.

It will never be weaker than the combination of time cards and return cards!

Besides the return of all things to their origin, he also didn't forget the earth elemental power he gained when he subdued the mystery cards.

This ability is simple and straightforward.

Although he already possesses the ability to ride the wind and fly through the air, or to ride a sword, having an additional skill to burrow underground is never a bad thing.

Thinking of this, Ye Hui got up, went to the backyard, and found an open grassy area.

He took a deep breath, concentrated, and activated his earth-elemental supernatural powers.

The next second, he felt his body sink, and the ground beneath his feet seemed to come alive, swallowing him up.

The surrounding area was instantly enveloped in moist soil.

Strangely, he did not feel suffocated. Instead, he felt as free as if he were swimming in water, yet without the resistance of water, and his movements were exceptionally smooth.

He felt like he had turned into a clod of dirt!
Ye Hui tried to swim forward a distance as if paddling in water, and the speed was much faster than expected.

With a thought, his body floated upwards, and he poked his head out from underground.

He found himself under a tree at the other end of the backyard.

"This divine power is indeed convenient for traveling or stealth."

He nodded to himself, quite satisfied with the practicality of the Earth Element Divine Power.

Next, the experiment traced back to the origins of all phenomena.

Ye Hui looked around and finally his gaze fell on a spiritual herb that had failed to grow in the Void Spiritual Field.

It was a withered and dying herb, its petals curled up and its leaves hardened.

He extended his index finger, aimed it at the flower, concentrated his mind, and channeled his spiritual power, drawing upon the divine power of the Myriad Things Returning to Their Source to his fingertip.

The next second, a miraculous scene unfolded.

The withered flowers are visibly reviving.

The dried petals have become plump and moist again.

The curled leaves straightened and even the flower stems regained their emerald green color.

"That's amazing?" Ye Hui was somewhat surprised.

This effect was even more immediate than the fertility-inducing techniques he had used before!
Of course, the fertilization technique accelerates growth, while the return to the origin of all things directly reverses time.

There is an essential difference between the two.

He then turned his attention to a nearby stone covered in weathered marks and activated his supernatural powers once more.

Subsequently, the cracks on the stone's surface gradually healed, and the rough texture of weathering faded.

In the end, it turned back into a pool of fine sand.

It's clearly a return to the state before the stone was formed!
Ye Hui's heart moved.

What would happen if it were used on a person?
It was during childhood, or even earlier...

Will it turn into an ape? Or...?
Ye Hui shook his head, temporarily suppressing the thought.

This supernatural power is extremely effective.

However, neither the elixir nor the stone contained any extremely powerful magic.

Therefore, supernatural powers are extremely effective against them.

But large objects, or those containing extremely abundant magic, will not work.

Insufficient spiritual power.

In fact, simply reviving the elixir and turning the stone into sand had already drained his spiritual power.

The Foundation Establishment stage is still too weak.

We must break through this barrier as soon as possible!

After testing the new supernatural power.

Ye Hui brought up the system panel to check the emotion value.

[Emotional value: 2245 points (check the emotional value of the bonded object)]

[Unlock Bonds: Sakura Kinomoto, Tomoyo Daidouji, Kaho Mizuki, Meiling Li...]

"System, redeem two adventure maps."

[Ding! Successfully redeemed 2 "Adventure Maps"!]

[Currently have 8 adventure maps]

"Just two more cards and I can do another 10-pull."

Ye Hui took a deep breath and began to meditate.

Alright, let's begin our training!
The next few days were peaceful.

Time quickly came to October 25th.

Today, Ye Hui's classmate is having a cooking class that he's been looking forward to for a long time.

The cooking classroom at Yuzhi Elementary School is spacious and bright, with neatly arranged stainless steel cooking counters.

It is fully equipped with ovens, stoves, knives, and other equipment.

Ye Hui, Xiao Ying, and Zhi Shi were gathered around a kitchen counter, all wearing clean white aprons, looking extremely focused.

"Class, today's cooking class will focus on making croquettes."

The teacher in charge of the lesson was a bespectacled woman who spoke gently, "Although making croquettes isn't complicated, it does involve deep-frying. Everyone must be careful while doing it, and absolutely no horseplay, understand?"

"Hi!" the students in the classroom answered in unison, their voices filled with excitement.

"Alright, the ingredients are all on your worktables now, you can start preparing."

As soon as the teacher finished speaking, the entire cooking classroom immediately became lively.

"It's a croquette! I love this the most!"

Sakura stared at the ingredients on the counter, her eyes sparkling.

Potatoes, onions, minced meat, eggs, and breadcrumbs are all neatly arranged; these are the basic ingredients for making croquettes.

"Let's get started! First, steam the potatoes and peel them!" Sakura couldn't wait any longer and rolled up her sleeves, picking up the peeler next to her.

Tomoyo smiled and nodded, reaching for the plate of onions: "Then I'll chop the onions."

Sakura skillfully picked up a potato, held it down with her left hand, and gripped the peeler in her right hand, deftly peeling off the skin. The peeled potato skin curled up and fell onto the plate.

The three of them had a clear division of labor and worked together very well.

Almost done.

The two changed jobs again.

Tomoyo was in charge of dealing with the remaining potatoes.

Sakura focuses on seasoning the minced meat and onions.

Ye Hui provided technical guidance from the sidelines, occasionally lending a hand and filling in any gaps in his knowledge.

"Sakura, you need to chop the onions finer so that the texture will be more even when mixed with the minced meat," Ye Hui gently reminded Sakura as she chopped the onions.

"Okay! I understand!" Sakura nodded immediately, picked up the knife and chopped the larger onion pieces a few more times.

She poured the stir-fried minced meat and diced onions into a small bowl, added salt, pepper, and a little soy sauce, and stirred it clockwise with both hands, her movements serious and meticulous.

the other side.

Tomoyo had already peeled and cut the potatoes into chunks and steamed them until cooked.

She poured the steamed potatoes into a large bowl and patiently mashed them into a smooth mashed potato with a spoon. The final result looked completely smooth without any grainy texture.

"Okay, now just mix the minced meat and mashed potatoes together," Ye Hui said.

Sakura immediately poured the mixed meat filling into the mashed potatoes, and the three of them gathered around the large bowl and stirred it together.

The smooth texture of the mashed potatoes and the savory aroma of the meat filling gradually blend together, releasing an enticing fragrance.

"It feels like we're playing in the mud right now," Sakura said, looking at the sticky mixture in the bowl and couldn't help but laugh.

Ye Hui laughed too: "The essence of croquettes lies in how well the 'mud' is prepared."

Soon, a large bowl of mashed potatoes and meat was mixed evenly.

Next comes the step of shaping the dough for the cakes.

Ye Hui demonstrated: "You need to shape it into an oval, making the size as uniform as possible, and then gently flatten it."

He casually pinched out a neatly shaped dough and placed it on a plate.

Sakura and Tomoyo also started learning.

Sakura has skillful hands; the croquettes she makes are perfectly round, with cute curved edges.

Zhi Shi pursued even greater regularity, and the dough he shaped were all standard ovals, almost identical in size.

"Tomoyo, you're amazing! You made each one so perfectly!" Sakura looked at the results on Tomoyo's plate with admiration.

Tomoyo smiled gently, raising her eyebrows slightly: "Sakura's sculpting is also very cute; it looks very appetizing."

In no time, a neat plate of croquette dough was ready.

"Next, coat the bread with flour, dip it in egg wash, and roll it in breadcrumbs in that order. Remember to coat it evenly at each step."

As Ye Hui spoke, he picked up a dough piece and began working on it.

The three-person assembly line quickly coated all the dough pieces with golden breadcrumbs, making them look exceptionally tempting.

Just as they were about to start frying, Chiharu from their group came over, her eyes shining as she looked at the plate.

"Sakura, you guys are so fast! And it looks much neater than our group's."

"Hehe, it's because Yezi is there to guide me. He's really good at cooking!" Xiaoying scratched her head a little shyly, but there was a hint of pride in her words.

Although she didn't know that Ye Hui was good at cooking, what did it have to do with her?

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +8]

Chiharu smiled, then suddenly remembered something and said in a low voice, "By the way, have you heard? Recently, something called 'cursed spell cards' has become very popular at school."

"Spell cards? What are those?" Sakura tilted her head, looking completely bewildered. Ye Hui's heart skipped a beat.

Spell cards?
New cards again? Looks like they're coming up with something new this time.

Chiharu explained, "It's a kind of card with a picture printed on it. I heard it's especially effective."

"You can write your wishes on it, such as praying for academic progress, successful weight loss, or smooth sailing in love. As long as you carry the written card with you, your wishes will come true!"

"Is it really that amazing?" Sakura blinked her eyes. "Isn't it similar to a shrine's amulet?"

"Pretty much the same, but the design is much nicer than the amulet." Chiharu nodded. "And since it's a card, it might be possible to put it directly into the amulet's pouch."

Naoko, who was sitting in the next group, also heard the conversation and chimed in, "I know, Masaki-nee's stationery store sells them. I heard they're selling really well lately, and a lot of students are rushing to buy them."

She suddenly remembered something and looked at Sakura with a mischievous grin: "Speaking of which, didn't you two go to the Tsukimori Shrine to get love charms before?"

(-ω)！！
Sakura's cheeks flushed instantly, and she quickly waved her hands.

"No...no! We were just passing by and went in to take a look, we didn't ask for anything..."

Her eyes darted away as she spoke, and her embarrassed expression made Chiharu and Naoko laugh.

Ye Hui listened from the side, and already had a general idea in his mind.

These so-called spell cards are definitely related to the Clow Cards.

He couldn't remember this part of the story at all at first, but as his cultivation level improved, he was able to recall it.

However, his memory of which one it was was somewhat hazy.

It seems I'll have to check out Masaki-nee's shop after school.

"Tomoyo, the oil temperature is about right, you can start frying."

Ye Hui glanced at the oil pot next to him and reminded Zhi Shi, who was somewhat distracted.

"Ah, okay."

Tomoyo snapped out of her daze, smiled somewhat embarrassedly, and picked up the thermometer next to her to take a look.

"It's already at 170 degrees, just right for deep-frying."

Ye Hui was somewhat puzzled.

Tomoyo is usually very focused and rarely gets distracted. I wonder what she was thinking about just now.

Upon hearing that she was going to be deep-fried, Sakura's expression became tense, and she unconsciously clenched the edges of her apron.

What she fears most is the stinging sensation of hot oil splashing on her body.

My skin will burn painfully!
"I...I'm a little afraid of the sizzling sound of oil in a pan, I'm always worried that the oil will splatter." She stared at the pan of cooking oil that was emitting wisps of steam and said softly.

"Don't be afraid, I'll teach you how to put it, it's very simple," Ye Hui comforted gently.

He picked up his chopsticks, took out a croquette coated in breadcrumbs, and slowly brought it close to the oil pan: "Like this, gently put it in close to the oil surface, and be slow, so the oil won't splatter out, you see."

Follow his movements.

The croquettes slid smoothly into the oil pan, splashing only a few tiny droplets of oil before sizzling softly and turning a golden brown color.

"Wow, Si Guoyi! It really doesn't splatter oil! Ye, you're amazing!" Xiaoying stared at him, unable to take her eyes off him.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +9]

"Here, give it a try." Ye Hui handed her the chopsticks. "Just do as I say, and there won't be any problems."

Sakura nodded, took a deep breath, and, imitating Ye Hui, carefully picked up a croquette and slowly brought it close to the oily surface.

Although her fingers were a little stiff from nervousness, she still managed to put the dough into the pan.

"Great! I did it!" Sakura cheered excitedly, her eyes sparkling with joy.

Just then, a hand reached out from the side and quickly grabbed another croquette.

It's Li Meiling.

She glanced at Sakura, who was still excited, and pouted, "What's there to be nervous about such a simple thing?"

As she spoke, she deftly tossed the croquette into the oil, her movements quite swift and decisive.

"Meiling, you're amazing too! You're not afraid at all!" Sakura exclaimed sincerely.

Li Meiling raised her chin, a smug look on her face: "What's so special about that! I've been learning to cook with my family since I was little, I'm used to deep-frying! Humph~"

Although she's usually loud and boisterous, she's actually quite skilled at cooking.

After all, she had heard someone say when she was a child that if you want to win a man's heart, you must first win his stomach!
So she studied and practiced diligently so that she could make delicious food that the little wolf would like!
"Thank you for coming to help," Sakura said with a smile.

"Hmph, I didn't come here specifically to help you, I just happened to be passing by."

Li Meiling turned her head away, stubbornly retorting, but upon hearing that adorable "thank you," her ears couldn't help but blush slightly.

She paused, then asked in a low voice, as if casually, "Hey, where's that boutique you guys were talking about?"

Sakura paused for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh: "That shop is near the school. Meiling, do you also want to look at jutsu cards? Let's go together after school!"

“Who… wants to go! I was just asking casually, simply out of curiosity!” Li Meiling immediately raised her voice.

Ye Hui watched this scene with a slight smile on his lips.

Sakura and Meiling's relationship seems to have improved a little bit without them even realizing it.

She really is the boss!

Even the proud and eccentric Meiling has to admit defeat!
The golden-brown croquettes sizzled and rolled in the oil.

The rich aroma filled the cooking classroom, attracting the attention of the surrounding students.

Why do these people's croquettes taste ten times better than theirs?
Soon, the first batch of croquettes was ready.

Ye Hui used a slotted spoon to scoop them out and placed them on a plate lined with absorbent paper to drain off the excess oil.

"Wow! It smells so good!" Sakura leaned closer, took a deep breath, and looked completely blissful.

"It looks delicious; it should be very crispy," Tomoyo exclaimed.

"It's best to eat it while it's hot, try it quickly." Ye Hui picked up a croquette and handed it to Tomoyo, "And Sakura, you should eat it too."

"Thank you, Ye-kun." Tomoyo took it, took a small bite, and after chewing for a moment, her purple eyes curved into a smile. "The taste is really great. Ye-kun's seasoning is just right, and it's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside."

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +8】

Sakura also picked up a croquette, gently blew on it to cool it down, and then took a big bite.

The crispy outer layer crumbles between your teeth.

The soft and creamy mashed potatoes mixed with the savory aroma of minced meat instantly melt in your mouth.

Her eyes immediately lit up: "It's so delicious! The outer layer is so crispy, and the mashed potatoes inside are so soft and creamy!"

Ye Hui smiled, picked one up, and tasted it; the taste was indeed quite good.

Sakura finished her croquette in a few bites, then picked up a croquette and handed it to Li Meiling next to her: "Meiling, you should try it too, it's really delicious."

Li Meiling hesitated for a moment, then took it and took a bite.

After chewing for a moment, she mumbled, "It's...it's alright."

Despite saying that, she finished the croquette in just a few bites.

Ye Hui couldn't help but find her insincere behavior amusing.

The rich aroma emanating from their place had already attracted the attention of the surrounding students.

Several classmates gathered around.

"Wow, Sakura, the croquettes you made look so delicious!"

"Can we have one?"

“Of course!” Sakura generously pushed the plate over.

However, she paused again and turned to look at Ye Hui.

Sakura waited until the latter nodded with a smile before continuing to push the plate out.

"This is what Yezi treated everyone to!"

"Haha, thank you, Ye Hui!" several classmates laughed.

Soon, the plate of croquettes was completely devoured.

Everyone exclaimed, "Sakura, you guys are amazing! This is the best croquette I've ever eaten!"

"The seasoning, in particular, is fantastic!"

"It's all thanks to Ye! He guided us through it." Xiaoying scratched her head shyly, her smile bashful.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +7]

After school.

Ye Hui, Xiao Ying, and Zhi Shi walked out of the school gate together, followed by Li Meiling, who claimed to be "going the same way".

The four of them walked toward Masaki's stationery store.

"Speaking of which, Meiling, are you interested in those spell cards?" Sakura asked curiously on the way.

"I'm not interested at all!" Li Meiling retorted. "I just want to see what that thing is all about, so you won't get scammed!"

She paused, then added, "Besides, my relationship with Little Wolf is so good that I don't need that kind of thing to protect me!"

Ye Hui glanced at her.

This statement is not exactly the same as her previous statement that she didn't need a love charm; it's more accurate to say that there's no difference.

In the end, he still secretly went and begged for two.

"Really?" Sakura blinked, not pressing for further details.

Tomoyo walked quietly to the side, a gentle smile on her lips.

She could tell that Meiling was just being stubborn.

Before long, the group arrived at the entrance of Masaki's shop.

"This is it!" Sakura said, pointing to the sign hanging above the shop.

As I pushed open the door, the clear sound of wind chimes rang out.

"welcome."

Masaki, who was tidying up the shelves, looked up, saw the group, and gave them a hearty smile.

"Sister Masaki!" Sakura waved and greeted her happily.

"Oh, it's you guys. Are you here to patronize my business again today?" Masaki walked over with a smile, his voice friendly.

"Yes! We want to see the popular spell cards!" Sakura nodded vigorously.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +5]

Upon hearing this, Masaki said somewhat apologetically, "Unfortunately, we've already sold out of spell cards for today."

"However, a new batch of goods will arrive tomorrow. In addition to the usual academic and love-themed items, there are also items for those who wish to improve their cooking skills."

Just then, Ye Hui asked, "Sister Zhenshu, where did you get all these spell cards from?"

Ye Hui felt that his memory was correct; there were no Clow Cards among the spell cards here, so they might be in the next few batches of goods.

Sakura looked at Ye Hui with some confusion, not understanding why he suddenly asked this question.

[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +3]

【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +2】

Masaki sized up Ye Hui a few times, then chuckled and teased, "What? Ye Hui, are you also interested in this business?"

"Haha, how could that be? I was just a little curious."

Ye Hui calmly replied, "After all, this thing has suddenly become popular recently, it feels like it just appeared out of nowhere."

Without much thought, Masaki truthfully replied, "I got the goods through a supplier in Tokyo via an old friend."

"Tokyo?" Ye Hui's heart skipped a beat.

It seems that the Clow Card is very likely in Tokyo right now.

“Yes, I heard it’s a newly opened company that specializes in these kinds of products,” Masaki added. “I always order directly by phone, and they ship it over directly.”

Ye Hui began to make plans in his mind.

Now that I possess the supernatural power of earth, traveling a thousand miles a day is no problem for me.

It only takes a few minutes to get from Tomoeda to Tokyo.

Should we go straight to Tokyo, find that supplier, and then take over the Clow Cards?

The idea only flashed through his mind for a moment before he rejected it.

No.

He only knew that the supplier was in Tokyo, but he had no idea which company it was or where it was located.

Tokyo is so big, and he was just wandering around like a headless fly, which was very inefficient.

The most important thing is to stay by Sakura's side.

As for the Clow Cards, they'll come to us eventually, so there's no rush.

Having figured this out, Ye Hui stopped worrying about going to Tokyo and decided to wait and see.

"So you're from Tokyo. No wonder you look so fashionable," Sakura exclaimed.

“Of course.” Masaki smiled.

Li Meiling, who had been silent all along, finally couldn't hold back anymore.

She stretched out her finger, picking through the cards on the display stand, and asked softly, "Um... do you have... spell cards for good luck in love?"

"Pfft..." Ye Hui almost burst out laughing.

One minute she's confidently declaring that her love for Little Wolf is unbreakable, the next she's planning to buy spell cards right in front of them.

Meiling, does your face hurt?

"Meiling, didn't you say..." Sakura's words were interrupted by Meiling.

"I...I didn't ask for myself!" Li Meiling's eyes darted around, avoiding everyone's gaze. "I...I asked for a friend! Yes, a friend!"

Ye Hui suppressed a laugh.

That's an excuse so bad it wouldn't fool even a three-year-old.

Is your friend's surname Li and his given name Meiling?
Sometimes, Ye Hui would really sigh, "No matter what, a primary school student is still just a primary school student!"

Tomoyo covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

She knew that Meiling was just too embarrassed to admit it, so she considerately didn't call her out on it.

Sakura tilted her head and asked innocently, "Really? Meiling's friend needs this too? She must be really troubled right now."

“Of course! She’s really troubled!” Li Meiling continued, “So as her friend, of course I have to help her out!”

As she spoke, she puffed out her chest, striking a pose of loyalty.

Masaki found her insincere and endearing.

After thinking for a moment, she took out a spell card from backstage and handed it over: "This is the spell card for good luck in love. This is one I originally kept for myself. It's a special edition. But you can take it. Consider it a gift from me to your 'friend'."

The reason Masaki gave Li Meiling this card was to thank Ye Hui and the others for their help back then.

Since they brought this girl, they must have a good relationship with her.

It's just a spell card; it's not worth much money.

"Really? Is it really possible? Thank you, Masaki-neechan!" Li Meiling's earlier embarrassment vanished, her eyes lit up, and she happily accepted the card.

She held the pink spell card, turning it over and over, unable to hide the smile on her face.

Ye Hui shook his head.

Meiling's emotions were written all over her face; who was she trying to fool?

“Meiling, your ‘friend’ must be very happy now.” Tomoyo’s voice was tinged with laughter.

"Of course! I did her a huge favor!" Li Meiling still stubbornly insisted.

Sakura looked at the dazzling array of playing cards on the display stand, but none of them were the popular spell cards. She then remembered her earlier request: "Sister Masaki, will the spell card that improves cooking skills really arrive tomorrow?"

Masaki replied confidently, "Of course, I've already made an order with Tokyo. It should arrive tomorrow afternoon. If Sakura needs it, she can come over after school tomorrow."

"Great! I hope I can make croquettes as delicious as Ye Hui's, so I can give some to Xue Tu Ge to try!"

Sakura clasped her hands together in front of her chest, her dark green eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Ye Hui listened from the side, silently lighting a candle for Touya in his heart.

The younger sister worked hard to improve her culinary skills, but all she wanted was to steal her older brother's girlfriend.

I wonder what kind of complicated feelings Touya would have if he knew.

I wonder how big Touya's psychological trauma is!
Sakura put her hand down, picked up a card from the display stand, and examined it closely, turning it over and over.

She tilted her head, leaned closer to Ye Hui and Zhi Shi, and whispered, "Ye Hui, Zhi Shi, look at this playing card..."

Ye Hui followed her hand and looked down.

It was a rectangular card, fairly well-made, with neatly trimmed edges.

The back of the card features a uniform dark gold magic circle pattern, while the front displays the four large characters "Step by Step to Higher Positions," accompanied by a simple line drawing of a row of steps.

"What's wrong, Sakura?" Tomoyo picked up a card and asked curiously.

"Don't you guys think... it looks a bit like a Clow Card?" Sakura whispered her discovery.

After her reminder, Tomoyo carefully compared them and nodded after a moment: "They really do look alike, especially the magic circle on the back, which is somewhat similar to the pattern on the back of the Clow Cards."

Ye Hui paused, pretending to ponder, and stroked his chin as he analyzed, "Hmm, now that you mention it, there really is such a possibility."

"The abilities of the Clow Cards are incredibly diverse. Some cards are indeed adept at disguise, transforming themselves into trendy products to hide themselves, which might also fit their characteristics."

"Then...then could it be that some of these playing cards, and those spell cards, have been transformed from Clow Cards?" Sakura's expression suddenly became tense.

Li Meiling carefully put the "Smooth Love" spell card into her schoolbag.

Hearing this, he was startled and quickly took out the cards again, clutching them tightly in his hand.

"What? These are Clow Cards? Could they be dangerous? Could they affect... affect my friend's wishes?"

The thought that her "friend's" love plans might be disrupted and ruined was unacceptable to Li Meiling.

Ye Hui used his spiritual energy to sense and carefully scanned all the cards on the display stand. After confirming that there were no magical fluctuations, he shook his head and reassured everyone, "It shouldn't be."

"These types of cards don't have any magical reaction; they're just ordinary printed materials, so don't worry."

Upon hearing this, both Sakura and Li Meiling breathed a sigh of relief.
