Chapter 876: Haibara Ai's Request, Xiao Lan's Wild Idea (5/5, please subscribe)

"I'm a manga character?"

When Mao Li Lan demonstrated the Conan anime in brief using the Mysterious Light Technique, Haibara Ai was dumbfounded.

Even after the anime ended, Haibara Ai still hadn't come back to her senses.

After a long while.

Haibara Ai asked: "What does this have to do with what you mentioned earlier?"

"Of course it's related," Mao Li Lan explained. "Once you accept that you're an anime character, then—light novels, the other worlds in manga—you can accept those too, right?"

Haibara Ai was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Earlier, I joined an organization that spans across worlds. This organization has gods, has immortals—in short, it has figures from every world." Mao Li Lan began to explain, "

"This organization is called the Chat Group. The Chat Group's Shangcheng collects wondrous things from all the heavens and myriad worlds. The Rejuvenation Pill was sold into the Shangcheng."

Haibara Ai frowned: "Selling a drug like that—won't it harm people? Xiao Lan, you have to understand, this drug is a poison the organization uses to kill people."

"It's fine." Mao Li Lan shook her head. "The reason the Rejuvenation Pill kills people is that the one who takes it doesn't have enough vitality. If the taker's vitality is sufficient, then it actually can

"rejuvenate them."

Haibara Ai frowned: "That's not right. I remember the organization did experiment on young people before, and those young people still died."

"Vitality doesn't only refer to lifespan." Mao Li Lan shook her head. "A young person who often stays up late and drinks heavily may not have as vigorous a vitality as a retired old person. Vitality

"is something very hard to judge from appearance or age."

Hearing this, Haibara Ai nodded lightly.

"Are these also the extraordinary bits of knowledge from the Chat Group?"

Mao Li Lan nodded: "Yes. The people in the Chat Group, at the very least, are beings with six-hundred-year lifespans and vigorous vitality. To them, this drug is not the least bit harmful."

"Then I'm relieved." Haibara Ai nodded. "Earlier, what you said about saving your sister—is that also built upon the Chat Group?"

"You could say it is, and you could say it isn't." Mao Li Lan shook her head. "There's a person in the Chat Group who can manipulate time. As long as he makes a move, your sister can naturally be saved. The

"problem of time chaos in our world can also be resolved."

"Then why don't you ask him?" Haibara Ai was puzzled. "Does he require some kind of payment?"

Mao Li Lan's face reddened, and she nodded lightly.

"That's right. To have him make a move, naturally one must pay a price."

"Otherwise, wouldn't others be working for nothing?"

Haibara Ai nodded lightly: "To gain, one must pay—I naturally understand this principle. Xiao Lan, what does he want?"

"A woman!" Mao Li Lan's voice was like a mosquito's hum; Haibara Ai barely heard it clearly.

Not until Mao Li Lan said it again did Haibara Ai widen her eyes, look at Mao Li Lan, and almost suspect she had misheard.

"A woman?"

"Would a figure who can manipulate time still be short of women?"

Mao Li Lan spread her hands: "Of course not. However, if we send other things to the Dao Lord, he doesn't need them either. Only us heroines—because of the anime, we are

"called '2D wives'—have any chance of making him act."

"2D wives!"

Haibara Ai was utterly speechless—she never imagined that one day she too would become a 2D figure fantasized about by otaku.

Haibara Ai: "What should we do then? Xiao Lan-jie, why don't you ask the Dao Lord and see if I qualify?"

Mao Li Lan was shocked: "You're this willing?"

"I want to save my sister!" Haibara Ai nodded. "As for the rest, it simply doesn't matter."

Mao Li Lan nodded: "Alright. I'll ask and see."

Chat Group.

Mao Li Lan: "By the way, if Haibara Ai is willing to be Dao Lord-gege's concubine, would Dao Lord-gege be willing to make a move and save her sister?"

Su Xiao: "You told Haibara Ai about the Chat Group?"

Mao Li Lan: "Mm. She can produce APTX4869—she's a good partner."

Xiao Mai: "I checked the Shangcheng, and Xiao Lan has already uploaded the Rejuvenation Pill. A thousand points per pill—so cheap."

Sigong Kaguya: "No, it's clearly very expensive. A thousand points can buy the first two volumes of an immortal Wu Gong manual and gain a six-hundred-year lifespan. This pill can only let one rejuvenate and

"gain the chance to live another life—the cost-performance ratio isn't high."

Gabriel: "Seems so. Even living to the ordinary human limit, it's only a hundred and twenty years—the cost-performance ratio is several times worse."

Zhang Taixuan: "You can't put it that way. This pill lets one return to childhood and redevelop. For a cultivator, it's a good chance to make up for deficient root bone."

Ye Hei: "Make up for root bone? Isn't there all kinds of body-tempering methods? Do you still need to return to childhood?"

Han Paopao: "【Screenshot】 Body-tempering methods are very expensive, but the Rejuvenation Pill is cheap—only a thousand points. For ordinary people, the Rejuvenation Pill has better cost-performance

Sigong Kaguya: "、‖If one's root bone is lacking, then indeed this pill is cheaper."

Su Xiao: "Since Taixuan-gege has come out, can you tell us whether you're willing to make a move or not?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Sure. It's not a big deal anyway."

Mao Li Lan: "Then can you help Conan return to his original state?"

Zhang Taixuan: "What do you think?"

Su Xiao: "Dying of laughter—Taixuan-gege could never do something that helps the enemy. 【Smirk】"

Xiao Mai: "Xiao Lan-jie, Conan's heart only has his detective dream—why must you keep your mind on him!"

Hu Yifei: "Same here. You can be beautiful on your own; let Conan go investigate cases."

Mao Li Lan: "

Su Xiao: "Something's off—why is everyone today speaking up for Taixuan-gege?"

Hu Yifei: "Are we? We're just stating facts (Nuonuo-hao).

Zhang Taixuan: "I've improved the 【Innate Dao Elixir】 version of the rejuvenation pill — everyone can try it at the shop."

Innate Dao Elixir: Rejuvenates the body, refines an Innate Dao-Approaching Physique, with no hidden drawbacks; the vitality required for rejuvenation is supplied by the elixir itself.

Ying Zheng: "Although this thing is very good, still, I'm not playing anymore — I don't want to turn into a child."

Mao Li Lan: "A hundred thousand points? That's way too expensive!"

Ye Hei: "Not expensive, not expensive. The previous pill could only rejuvenate you, but now it doesn't just rejuvenate you — it also lets you refine an Innate Dao-Approaching Physique. You basically spent a hundred thousand points,"

"and got the effect of over a million points."

Han Paopao: "If my physique hadn't already reached its peak, I'd buy one too. No — buying one for the family's juniors would also be fine."

Su Xiaoxiao: "The cost-effectiveness of this elixir just shot up at once. Bought a few — I'll exchange them to those cultivators later."
