Main Character:

Shen Yao

When Yu Xingye was mentioned, none of the three said much, after all Yu Xingye could be considered to have turned misfortune into blessing; injured in the arm and transferred back to Sweetwater Village, he now only needed to be responsible for the safety around the village, and no longer had to go on missions with bated breath.

But if the Yu family had a choice, they would rather Yu Xingye not be injured.

The three all knew that Yu Ze Yun going on missions was inevitable, and what Yu's mother said now was more like venting the emotions she had accumulated in her heart.

When Yu Sheng came out of the workshop riding the small wooden horse Yu's father had carefully crafted, several adults simultaneously changed the topic, not mentioning these things in front of the child.

After eating and drinking their fill, Yu Sheng became drowsy.

Shen Yao saw this and hurriedly got up with Yu Ze Yun to leave, one holding the son, one carrying things, walking slowly along the neatly laid path outside the door, returning along the flat and wide blue stone road.

The pastoral scenery of a few years ago had become today's clusters of buildings, more and more people lived in Sweetwater Village, the originally narrow land area kept expanding, making it seem even more crowded and suffocating.

The two spoke in low voices about the situation in the village; the most obvious was that the resettlement meeting previously organized under the leadership of the Village Chief and the Officials ultimately collapsed in the face of the numerous outsiders.

Now Sweetwater Village was divided into three parts, one part composed of Sweetwater Village villagers, they occupied about one-third of the land area, clearly separated from the Officials who exclusively occupied one-third.

As for the remaining one-third and the land outside Sweetwater Village, they were all under the jurisdiction of the outsiders.

This was a distribution method that the three parties could finally accept after several rounds of discussion; otherwise Sweetwater Village's fate would be as chaotic as the surrounding villages and towns.

"This time the Officials led the organization and arrangement; Sweetwater Village's forces will also be weakened somewhat.

If someone takes advantage of the situation, you must seize the time and leave as soon as possible."

Yu Ze Yun had long since confirmed several retreat routes with Shen Yao for after something happened in Sweetwater Village; once this place was no longer suitable for survival, they would immediately shift positions.

A cunning rabbit has three burrows!

After all there was no absolutely safe place in this world; Yu Ze Yun, over these years of going on missions, had constantly searched for footholds outside through his own efforts.

The vast majority were worse than Sweetwater Village, and the order inside was precarious; occasionally encountering one with strict order and wanting to enter was even more difficult.

Finally Yu Ze Yun carefully selected three bases located in surrounding provinces.

Their family had a car, many ability users, as long as they avoided dangerous areas, the probability of the whole family successfully arriving was very high.

"If the situation really is that terrible, even if we escape we can only be safe for a while; ultimately what we face is constant changing, until there is nothing left to change."

The planet expanded, the environment deteriorated.

Even though the Officials had always tried to control the situation, facing the objective fact that there were many provinces in the country and a huge population base, the Officials still seemed powerless.

Sweetwater Village's importance was not low, but compared to the whole country it was somewhat a chicken rib.

The Officials had advised Shen Yao more than once to leave in advance; Shen Yao could leave, but what about the Shen family?

At the same time, there were other matters here; Shen Yao did not want to spend the rest of her life surviving under the Officials' control, by then her special wood-type ability root could not be hidden.

"This time we go on a mission, the purpose is to find a place suitable for living.

The Officials have already circled several targets;" if conditions permitted, they would definitely still follow the Officials; doing so could not only use the Officials' background to hide their own special traits, but also continue living their current peaceful life.

Leaving the Officials was certainly free, but similarly required dealing with more risks, especially since they had elders above and children below; speaking of it, there were still quite a few restrictions.

…………

"Host, the Officials have already successfully discovered traces of cultivation in several tombs.

What should we do next? Continue to distribute these cultivation techniques?"

The system chirped noisily in Shen Yao's ears, like a clamorous duck.

Just after coaxing the energetic Yu Sheng to sleep, Shen Yao finished bathing and wanted to lie on the bed to rest, but the system's few shouts howled away her sleepiness.

Shen Yao:...

Pitifully, whose host besides completing the main mission also has to part-time save the world?

The system was really becoming more and more neglectful of its proper business; did it still remember it was just a Childbirth System?

System:...

The system of course remembered it was a Childbirth System, but that did not hinder it from earning extra money; even if it was a different type of system, the good things needed were roughly the same.

"Host, this isn't thinking about earning early and upgrading early;" it also did not want to always be half-dead.

Like those awesome trading systems, what was the difference between itself and them? Wasn't it just some energy?

"You get energy, and after upgrading you can stop doing the Childbirth System's work?"

"Of course, no!"

The system timidly expressed that its underlying logic was childbirth; this was its core command, no matter how much it upgraded, ten thousand changes never left its origin.

"But I can take out more good things, go to small worlds with more complete rules."

"Anyway, the Host won't lose out; we are good partners."

To guarantee the accuracy of its words, the system quietly revealed to Shen Yao that the reason they always came to such high-danger small worlds was because its priority was too low, and it could not completely jump out.

"Oh"

Shen Yao absentmindedly responded, then turned over and lay on the bed.

Beside her, Yu Sheng slept soundly with limbs spread out.

Yu Ze Yun had already left Sweetwater Village with the team; at this time he did not know which wild ridge he was staying in.

"Host, the matter of cultivation techniques;" the system couldn't help but rub its hands like a fly.

"You arrange it as you see fit;" Shen Yao closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

When the sun rose, bright microglow sprinkled onto the earth, and a new day quietly arrived.

Opening her eyes, she saw her son sleeping twisted and turned beside her; Shen Yao raised her hand to cover him with the blanket properly, then after dressing neatly left the room.

Today there were quite a few matters; after eating breakfast, Shen Yao could only temporarily send the child to the neighboring Yu Family.

At the sight of their grandson, Yu's father and Yu's mother were naturally delighted, though they asked, "Do you need your father and me to help?"

Yu's mother looked up at the densely packed buildings around them and sighed helplessly.

"It's fine, I'll come pick up Xiao Sheng tonight," Shen Yao said, rubbing Xiao Sheng's head, waving goodbye to him, then turning to leave.

Xiao Sheng watched his mother leave with longing eyes, reaching out his small hand to hug Yu's mother's thigh.

Seeing this, Yu's mother exclaimed in surprise, treating him like her heart and soul as she led him into the room, where there were many toys Yu's father had prepared, all things Xiao Sheng usually loved to play with.

Not long after, Xiao Sheng had tossed his beloved mother to the back of his mind, happily playing with his toys and forgetting his home.

Meanwhile, Shen Yao, who didn't know her eldest son's longing had lasted only a few minutes, was dealing with the arriving Management Bureau.

The medicinal herbs planted at the foot of the mountain had just sprouted when the Management Bureau wanted to dig them up—did the authorities really lack medicine to such an extent?

"Miss Shen, you should decide as soon as possible; going to the Base gives you more opportunities to unleash your strengths," the Management Bureau, which had cooperated with Shen Yao for many years, said in a gentle tone, advising her to leave first.

Shen Yao of course still refused, but she didn't mean to make things difficult for the workers, only saying that while wood-type abilities could catalyze growth, they shouldn't be used frequently, "There are more matters at the farm," this patch of medicinal herb field at the foot of the mountain would be left idle for a while.

The Management Bureau naturally understood, stating that this batch of medicinal herbs would be taken back to the Base, where official wood-type ability users would take over, ensuring the survival rate while catalyzing them into medicine as soon as possible.

As for Shen Yao's side, she had already completed her agreement with the Management Bureau; from now on, no matter what she planted, the Management Bureau would not interfere excessively.

"Putting it that way, be careful not to violate Management Bureau ordinances."

"I'm just pitying the survival environment of ability users; can the Base really not take them all in?"

"Where's the space to settle them? People crammed together—when the time comes, who would want to be driven out?"

"......"

Shen Yao rubbed her ears, probably thinking the distance between the two parties was far enough that she wouldn't hear some small talk.

In fact, after her wood-type ability upgraded, her five senses had become somewhat stronger, and the words spoken by the Management Bureau people after getting into the car entered her ears without missing a single word.

The Base was also bursting at the seams with people; where was the future for these people from Sweetwater Village?

'System, how is the official research progress on cultivation techniques?'

'Host, the authorities are considering whether to make it public, and they're still wrangling with each other.'

'Keep releasing them; once the quantity is large enough, they won't be able to decide.'

Shen Yao could do few things; given that human ability users' advantages were obviously inferior to mutated creatures, opening a new cultivation system was the most convenient choice.

For humans to live securely, they had to master powerful strength, 'Rather than being a target out in the open, it's better to hide behind the scenes as a High Person.'

Shen Yao never tested human nature; even with people close to her, whatever should be hidden would not be spoken.

For this, the System had once complained that Shen Yao was too cautious and too guarded.

Returning from the foot of the mountain to the farm, Shen Yao received an emergency call from Shen Le; by the time she rode her little electric donkey to the Shen Family Doorway, a circle of villagers had already gathered there.

The quarreling voices coming from inside were mainly led by Fu Chunfang, occasionally mixed with a woman's sobbing and a man's apologetic begging for mercy; fine, she didn't need to enter the door to deduce who the protagonists of this incident were.

Shen Liang's matter had blown up!

"Mom, this really is my son; I didn't expect them, mother and child, to find him."

"Sister-in-law, please forgive me just this once; I really didn't do it on purpose..."

Shen Liang knelt in the Living Room, Fu Chunfang was being pulled back by Shen Guozhu, Zhou Wei cried and collapsed into Shen Wenqi's arms, and Shen Wenyu stared with hatred at a short, melon-like child behind Shen Liang and a woman skinny as a pile of bones.

Shen Yao:... Headache!

Shen Le hurriedly pulled Shen Yao to a corner, where Shen Xin and Chen Lili, mother and daughter, were still standing.

Chen Peng hadn't harassed Shen Xin in these years, and Chen Lili was an ability user, so no one in Sweetwater Village dared to bully them; therefore Shen Xin was much more normal than before and could already communicate simply with her family.

"Second Sister, Eldest Young Master wants to keep this mother and child, Mother is unwilling, and Eldest Sister-in-law has been crying."

Shen Le was clumsy with his hands; family matters were hard to manage, whatever they said was wrong.

"They shouldn't be kept; what about Wen Qi and Wenyu?" Wen Qi spoke, saying that men getting into this kind of trouble was common, but keeping them right in front of your eyes was just stupid.

Shen Le looked astonished, obviously not expecting Shen Xin to say such a thing.

After all, Chen Peng had done far worse than Eldest Young Master, yet Shen Xin hadn't passed gas—was it really that the authorities were confused while the onlookers were clear?

Shen Xin scratched her face somewhat awkwardly, "I, I said something wrong?"

Shen Le nodded, "Right, it's just that your attitude is completely different from before."

Shen Yao shook her head, "They'll stay; elders can't win against children, and besides, Eldest Sister-in-law herself isn't willing to let go," keeping this mother and child right in front of them was the best choice, at least they could keep an eye on the situation at all times and not worry about Shen Liang pulling an Open Action, Secretly Crossing Chencang trick.

Sure enough, the matter ended with Shen Liang's guarantee and Zhou Wei's compromise.

Shen Yao didn't want to watch this farce anymore; after staying not long, she returned to the farm. On the road, the System advised Shen Yao to open up; at a time like this, even basic social order was unstable, and it was only natural that things violating ethics and morality would happen.

'Yeah, can't you fight for some spirit, take me to a world where I can live securely?' Why was everyone making her beg to survive.

System:...

'Host, isn't this making amends?' It really didn't want to; who knew the luck would be so bad, the few worlds chosen were not that great.

'Rest assured, the System will soon let the Host live securely,' today they would continue to increase the release intensity, striving to let more people pick up cultivation techniques, manually accelerating the process of Spiritual Qi Revival.

Before Dinner, Shen Yao went to the Yu Family to pick up Xiao Sheng, who had played crazily all day.

Although Yu's father and Yu's mother were somewhat reluctant, it was still best for small children to live with their parents, which was beneficial to the child's physical and mental development.

"Mommy, Little Uncle cried."

Xiao Sheng buried his head in Shen Yao's ear, quietly saying the garbled news he had heard.

"Oh, why did Little Uncle cry?"

Xiao Sheng usually loved to talk, and Shen Yao habitually took up the topic as usual.

"Don't know, Grandmother said marriage is a major matter to be cautious about, Grandfather said Little Uncle was bewitched, sigh, the adult world is truly complex."

Xiao Sheng cupped his own chubby little chin with both hands, his eyes full of confusion.

Shen Yao:... Pfft

Shen Yao raised her hand and ruffled Xiao Sheng's head of hair, "Children thinking too much won't grow taller."

Using words to coax Xiao Sheng to play on the bed by himself, Shen Yao stared at the System's matter of releasing cultivation techniques.

Based on an entire planet, it radiates outward to the surroundings without ceasing.

Of course, the system adjusted the quantity distributed; places with many people were denser, places with few people were sparser, striving to bloom in both official and civilian areas.

Shen Yao, besides daily supervision, urged the system to seize time for remediation.

The results were evident: outside Sweetwater Village, a suddenly collapsed mountain peak revealed traces of a cultivation technique.

Although official personnel sealed off Xian Chang immediately upon receiving the news, word spread from one to ten, ten to a hundred, and the relevant information still leaked out.

Quite a few bold ones actively went to investigate, and the surrounding people swarmed over; even Shen Liang, who had just enjoyed being flanked on both sides, went to watch the spectacle, but went in walking and was carried out sideways—no one knows who secretly smashed his head.

However, so many people went up the mountain, and Shen Liang had plenty of enemies in the village; being suddenly struck out of nowhere, he could only accept his bad luck.

The system came running with a smile to claim credit, saying it had placed several spots with cultivation techniques near Sweetwater Village—this was a backdoor opened for the Host's sake.
