After Spirit Spring Water rapidly transformed his kittens and awakened their ability to understand simple commands, Chen Lin tested the water on his family’s abandoned fishpond and began planning to raise fish. He revived a batch of small fish and treated a struggling rapeseed plant, then returned home to find a loud engine approaching.

• Chen Lin woke to find the kittens larger, healthier, and able to understand simple instructions, and he posted a video of them asking friends for name suggestions.

After the kittens licked the Crimson Moon Fox’s blood, they gained bloodline memories, healing powers, and the ability to speak telepathically, and Chen Lin named them Clear Wind and Bright Moon. The next day, Chen Lin helped prepare his farmhouse courtyard for business, and Zhao Jie’s delighted reaction to the Super White Bream suggested the restaurant would be a hit.
