["The Pill Recipe can be given to the Host."]
["However, Host, the materials required for the Heavenly Essence Divine Pill are all extrely rare. Furthermore, Alchemy has very high requirents for the fla and Pill Furnace. The crafting ti will be very long, and the success rate is quite low. Are you sure you want to refine it yourself?"]
"What choice do I have? I don’t have enough Points. Are you going to lend so?"
’I’m still short more than three thousand Points. Even if I start grinding now, it’ll take ages.’
["Has the Host forgotten about the several days of sign-in rewards you haven’t claid yet? You haven’t done today’s sign-in task either."]
["The Host should claim all the rewards first and complete any available tasks. If you still don’t have enough Points, I can issue a random task."]
That did remind Jiang Yunnuan.
She did indeed have several sign-in rewards she hadn’t claid, and she hadn’t done today’s sign-in task either.
"Alright, let’s do that. I’ll claim the rewards first."
After speaking, she looked at Ming Ye and said, "It seems there really might be a way, but I need a mont. Please be patient while I double-check."
"Alright. Thank you."
Ming Ye was instantly overjoyed when he heard that.
From what he knew of her, although she could be vicious and lecherous, arrogant and flighty, she never made empty boasts. If she said she could do sothing, she absolutely could. For her to say sothing like this, she must be quite confident.
’It seems Big Brother’s Cultivation can really be saved.’
Jiang Yunnuan’s consciousness entered her rewards inventory. There were four sign-in gift packs in total, one of which was a "Grand Surprise Gift Pack" for 60 cumulative sign-ins.
She couldn’t help but stare when she saw the Grand Surprise Gift Pack.
’Ugh, I’m such an idiot. How could I have completely forgotten about this 60-day surprise gift pack?’
Snapping back to reality, she quickly opened all the gift packs and imdiately received: 4,500 Points, 2 Dan Secret Manual Fragnts, 1 Random Divine Grass, 1 Moon Soul Stone, 30 Crystal Stones, 6 Farm Upgrade Cards, 8 Organic Fertilizers, 32 Beauty Pill Fragnts, 1 Sword Spirit, and 1 Beast Soul.
’Wow, that’s so many Points! And so many rewards!’
Jiang Yunnuan was ecstatic. Without even taking a closer look at the rewards, she said, "It’s enough, it’s enough! System, I have enough Points! Quick, exchange them for a Heavenly Essence Divine Pill! I’ll mark this down as a major credit to you."
["Affirmative. Exchanging for the Heavenly Essence Divine Pill for the Host now."]
With a BEEP, an Elixir Pill shimring with divine light appeared in Jiang Yunnuan’s hand. In an instant, almost all her Points were gone.
Seeing her Points dwindle to just over a thousand, she gritted her teeth, fighting back the sting of the loss, and handed the pill to Ming Ye.
"This Elixir Pill can reforge one’s constitution and inner core, but the process is excruciating. Success is only possible through perseverance. So, whether your brother’s inner core can be successfully restored ultimately depends on him."
Ming Ye nodded as he accepted it. In a solemn voice, he said, "Words cannot express my gratitude. Jiang Yunnuan, regardless of whether my brother’s restoration is successful, I will forever rember the kindness you’ve shown today."
"Good. Then rember what you said. I, Jiang Yunnuan, am not so selfless saint who asks for nothing in return. When the opportunity arises, you’d better make sure you repay ."
"Yes!"
He gave a solemn nod.
「That night.」
Si Xie and Fu Yuan started a campfire. After Jiang Yunnuan whipped up a simple al and they had all eaten, Si Xie pulled her into his embrace, shooting a warning glare at Fu Yuan.
"Tonight, Nuannuan is mine. Stay away."
Fu Yuan simply smiled, his gaze traveling past Si Xie to land on Jiang Yunnuan.
"Nuannuan, an opportunity like this is rare. Would you like to go with to the bottom of the sea? There are many treasures there, and the rfolk Clan lives there too. They say the tears of the rfolk turn into beautiful, multicolored pearls."
"Yes, yes, yes! Of course I do!"
Jiang Yunnuan grew instantly excited at the ntion of the rfolk Clan. She had heard many stories about rfolk, but had never seen one in person.
Now that Fu Yuan had ntioned them, how could she possibly resist?
’Besides, there really are a lot of treasures at the bottom of the sea. A trip there is a surefire way to get rich. The last ti I was in a rush to find Si Xie, I clearly saw tons of treasure but had to pass it all by. I have to make up for it this ti.’
Seeing this, Si Xie grew anxious. He quickly grabbed her arm and whined, "Nuannuan, have you forgotten? You’re mine tonight! If you go under the sea with him, what am I supposed to do?"
As he spoke, he shot Fu Yuan a venomous, teeth-gritting glare, as if he wanted to skin him alive.
’This damn bastard! He’s always coming up with new tricks to steal Nuannuan from . Now that he sees he can’t win tonight, he pulls this stunt about going to the bottom of the sea. Damn him!’
"Do you know how to swim? If so, you can co to the bottom of the sea with us."
Jiang Yunnuan reached out to pat his head, trying to soothe him. Si Xie just frowned, his face a mask of misery.
"I can, but I can’t stay underwater for very long. Ten or fifteen minutes at most."
Fu Yuan let out a rciless chuckle at his words.
"If that’s all the ti you have, I’d advise you to just give up. The sea is unfathomably deep; it’ll take us longer than that just to descend. It would be a real problem if we ran into any danger."
"The seabed is ho to countless ferocious races and Mutant Creatures. If we run into trouble, I’ll only be able to protect Nuannuan. Oh, and by the way, I’m not just trying to scare you."
Si Xie: "..."
Of course he knew Fu Yuan wasn’t just trying to scare him.
The ocean was far more dangerous than the land.
"If it’s so dangerous, then why are you trying to take Nuannuan down there? If anything happens to her, can you take responsibility for that?"
"Nuannuan, you can’t even use your powers right now, and this guy is on an equal contract with you! An equal contract isn’t like a master-servant one; you have no way to completely control him..."
"What if he has a change of heart and just abandons you at the bottom of the ocean? You’d be completely helpless! You should never intend to harm others, but you must always be on guard. You need to be wary of him. Don’t go to the bottom of the sea with him."
He held onto Jiang Yunnuan’s hand and refused to let go, desperately trying to change her mind about leaving him for the sea.
Fu Yuan almost laughed out of sheer exasperation, but he had no idea how to argue against the point.
He had to admit, the guy’s concerns were completely valid. An equal contract was, indeed, different from a master-servant one.
"Forget it, Nuannuan. I was being inconsiderate. You wait here with him. I’ll go down by myself."
He reached out and stroked Jiang Yunnuan’s hair, then leaned in to kiss her forehead. As he turned to leave, a hand suddenly grabbed his wrist. He turned back to see her looking at him.
"Wait. I never said I don’t trust you. I do trust you, and I want to go with you."
"Hey, Nuannuan, are you really going to abandon ?" he cried. Then, turning to Fu Yuan, "You bastard, why do you insist on taking her into the sea? You’re just doing this to get rid of , aren’t you!"
Si Xie directed all his pent-up frustration at Fu Yuan.
Fu Yuan just chuckled, unconcerned.
"Nuannuan is usually busy. It’s rare for her to get a chance to co out. Is it my fault for wanting to take her sowhere fun? And you’re going to bla because you can’t stay in the ocean for long?"
Si Xie: "..."
’Hmph! Who knows if that damn bastard wants to take Nuannuan to play at the bottom of the sea, or if he wants to ’play with’ Nuannuan at the bottom of the sea.’
’If I’m not there, I won’t be able to see what that bastard does to Nuannuan.’
’Oh no, this is bad. That bastard is definitely going to take full advantage of Nuannuan, isn’t he?’
