Chapter 94: Yesterday Once More

Er Miao's voice was full of worry, "Host, are you alright? Your emotional data line has already dropped below zero!"

Su Xi paused slightly, "Can you even calculate that?"

"Yes, the host's current mood is extremely low. Is there anything Er Miao can help you with?"

"Thank you, Er Miao, no need. Once I finish the task, I'll be fine after a sleep. Where is this, and what is the task?"

"Time-Limited Task Treasure Box: The host needs to help the Mechanical Race find 20 jin of Mechanical Blue Crystal within one hour."

"What is Mechanical Blue Crystal?"

"One jin of Mechanical Blue Crystal can provide core energy for 1 million mechanical soldiers. The Blue Crystal exists within the Sea Stones at the bottom of the Yellow Sea. The Yellow Sea water is highly corrosive and is fatal to the Mechanical Race."

"Then let's head down quickly; one hour isn't very long."

"Yes."

At the bottom of the Yellow Sea—

As soon as Su Xi arrived, she saw a ball of white, fluffy something burrowing into a rock.

"What is that?" Su Xi curiously leaned in and opened the System Map.

"The host has encountered it before; it is a little white fox," Er Miao replied.

Su Xi immediately remembered; it was the one she had met during the very first task Treasure Box she had completed.

"Hi~ Hello, little white fox!" Su Xi called out.

Xiao Huanbao stuck his butt out as he crawled out of the rock, blinking his large, dark, glistening eyes at Su Xi, "It's you."

"Yes, we really are fated!" Su Xi laughed, "Beautiful little fox, what are you doing?"

"Digging for Blue Crystals; I can sell them for money," Xiao Huanbao replied.

"Oh~ Is this thing easy to dig?" What a greedy little fox.

Xiao Huanbao replied, "Easy to dig."

As he spoke, his little paw reached into the rock and pulled out a handful of small blue bugs.

Those bugs were scrambling to escape from Xiao Huanbao's little paw.

Su Xi looked at the small bugs, "These are Blue Crystals?"

"Yes, extract the blue blood from their bodies, then let it settle in seawater, and it becomes Blue Crystal."

"……That's so complicated. I thought Blue Crystal was just something like a stone."

"After settling, it turns into small beads like pearls." Xiao Huanbao took a net out of his Small Storage Bag and caught all those little blue bugs.

Su Xi, however, stared at his Small Storage Bag, stunned, "This of yours…… it's exactly the same as my sister's Small Storage Bag."

Xiao Huanbao's tail instantly puffed up!

In the family group chat—

【Xiao Huanbao: Aaaaaah, Su Xi sister recognized my Small Storage Bag, what do I do? Should I tell her that Xiao Mi and I are sisters…… no, wait, are we brother and sister?】

【Xiao Duo'er: My silly brother, you've finally realized your own gender.】

【Xiao Mianmian: That's only because of you; when he was little, you always called him a little sister……】

【Xiao Huanbao: Are you guys even looking at my problem?】

【Xiao Thirteen: Just admit it. Otherwise, you'll have to keep making up lies later; how troublesome.】

【Xiao Seventeen: Introduce me to her, bro.】

【Xiao Yi Yi: Let's spar.】

【Pu Tao: Do you need help?】

【Xiao Seventeen: Haha, just kidding…… I have something to do, I'm leaving.】

【Xiao Yi Yi: Xiao Huanbao, you help me keep her company and play games. Uncle Ya Bo asked me to go over there.】

【Xiao Zhou Zhou: What does Dad want with you?】

【Karl: It wouldn't have to do with the Reversal System, would it? I can modify it for you right now, bro.】

【Xiao Yi Yi: It has nothing to do with the system. There's been an uprising in the Que Te Luo Star System. I'm more familiar with that place, so I'm going over to see if it can still be saved. If not, I'll just reclaim it directly.】

【Xiao Zhou Zhou: I'll go; you go chase your wife.】

【Xiao Yi Yi: ……How did you manage to chase down your wife back then?】

【Xiao Zhou Zhou: Does that even need chasing? It was your sister-in-law who insisted on marrying me.】

【Xiao Bei Er: Everyone's fate is different, Xiao Yi Yi, don't ask him. Follow your heart; if it's true fate, cherish it well and don't miss out.】

【Xiao Yi Yi: Thank you, sister.】

【Xiao Zhou Zhou: Right, what matters is what you want, whether you want to accompany her and walk hand in hand.】

【Xiao Yi Yi: I know now. Bro, you go to the Que Te Luo Star System for me.】

【Xiao Zhou Zhou: Already arrived.】

【Xiao Yi Yi: Reliable!】

……

Xiao Huanbao replied, "This Small Storage Bag is just a common gift bag in my family. There are differences in color and material; the more valuable the bag, the better the things it usually holds. A normal Small Storage Bag, like mine, just holds more daily necessities."

"Then is Xiao Mi your sister?" Su Xi looked at Xiao Huanbao in surprise.

"Xiao Mi is my sister; isn't she cute?" Xiao Huanbao swayed his large, fluffy tail, his eyes squinting into crescents, looking very cunning. But paired with his round, chubby physique, he was exceptionally cute.

Su Xi laughed, "Not just cute, she's especially cute! Just like you."

【Er Miao, we really are fated with the God Family!】

【Yes, host.】

"I'm not a girl baby, I'm a boy baby; you should say I'm handsome," Xiao Huanbao replied.

Su Xi nodded, "The most handsome little fox."

Xiao Huanbao said, "I am a Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox."

"Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox?" Su Xi knew that was a God Tier beast!

As expected, the God clan is already at the God Tier from birth.

Yet she was just a mortal from the Lou Hu World, nothing more than ordinary; perhaps she had a little talent for cultivation, but even with the hardest effort, it was difficult to become a god.

"So amazing!" Su Xi reached out, trying to touch the fur on his back.

Xiao Huanbao did not refuse, "Should I call you sister-in-law?"

Su Xi was just about to touch his fur when she suddenly stopped, "What?"

Xiao Huanbao said, "You and my brother are mated, aren't you?"

Su Xi frowned, "I am not mated to your brother."

【Xiao Yi Yi: My little brother Xiao Huanbao, don't mention me to her!】

【Xiao Huanbao: Why can't I say it?】

【Xiao Yi Yi: Because... anyway, you just can't mention me to her.】

【Xiao Huanbao: 10 Small Storage Bags.】

【Xiao Yi Yi: Deal.】

"I see. Sister~ let's dig for blue crystals." Xiao Huanbao flicked his tail and began to continue catching blue bugs.

Su Xi was responsible for killing the bugs to extract the blue liquid, while Xiao Huanbao was responsible for collecting the blue crystals that had turned into blue pearls.

Before long, they had dug up thirty jin.

Su Xi completed the mission, and Xiao Huanbao received a Light Magnetic Cannon Gun from the Mechanical Race.

Looking at the Light Magnetic Cannon Gun, Su Xi remembered the Light Magnetic Cannon on the Sea God, "This thing is very powerful, be careful and stay safe."

"A gift for sister." Xiao Huanbao gave the Light Magnetic Cannon Gun to Su Xi.

"Ah? No, no, no, this is what you earned by digging for blue crystals with such hard work." Su Xi hurriedly tried to refuse.

But Xiao Huanbao insisted on giving it to her, "I have to go home; my Huan Daddy is looking for me. If I don't go back, he will cry."

Su Xi: "..."

After leaving the space of the mission Treasure Box, Su Xi looked at the small gun in her hand that looked just like a toy, feeling as if she were in a dream.

【Congratulations to the host for completing the Game Treasure Box mission, receiving 500 Game Points, and a D Ji skill — Yesterday Reappears.】

【What kind of skill is this?】

【It allows the target to return to a past memory world for a short time. The effective duration is 1 hour, with a cooldown of 40 minutes.】

【Is it a real scene that is recreated, or is it a fabrication of memory?】

【It is a real scene. Even if the memory is blurred, as long as it is 50% accurate, it can recreate a 100% real scene.】

【Can I use it on myself?】

【Yes.】

【Send me back to the hostel first.】

【Very well, host.】

After returning to the hostel, Su Xi immediately lay down on the bed.

【Er Miao, activate Yesterday Reappears.】

【Yes, host.】

Su Xi closed her eyes, and her memories flowed through her mind like a revolving lantern... Finally, after a flash of white light before her eyes, she arrived at a memory point!

It was the moment after she had consumed the last Tribulation Lightning of Master Yuan Yu's ascension and escaped into the mission Treasure Box.

The residual power of the Tribulation Lightning had blasted the place where she had been into a huge crater!

Rong Shou arrived.

He looked at the giant crater, his face deathly pale!

Everyone else was watching Yuan Yu successfully pass the tribulation and ascend to the Xianjie.

Only Rong Shou stared blankly at the giant crater; his eyes seemed to have lost their light, and his straight shoulders and back were rigid, yet his thin lips could not stop trembling.

Gradually, a pitch-black spot appeared in his hollow eyes, growing larger and larger until it finally occupied his entire eyes!

Seeing this, Su Xi finally understood the abnormality of her Master; he had fallen into demonic cultivation!

Rong Shou suddenly disappeared from the giant crater.

Su Xi wanted to follow, but in her memory, there was only this giant crater, and she could not leave.

She looked in the direction Rong Shou had left; it was the Ling Shou Yuan.

The one-hour time limit was up.

Su Xi lay on the bed, tears streaming from the corners of her eyes, 【Er Miao, Master had actually fallen into demonic cultivation.】

【Don't think about it, host.】 Er Miao consoled, 【The Lou Hu World has already disappeared.】

【No, it exists in my memory.】 Su Xi raised her hand to wipe away her tears, 【I must restore the Yunze Dalu! I want the first place in the God-Favored Game, Er Miao, help me!】

【Yes! Er Miao will definitely help the host. There are two months left until the God-Favored Game ends; the host must work hard to complete missions and level up.】

【What is the highest level now?】

【The player's name is hidden, but the level is displayed as 122.】

【What level are you now?】

【Er Miao has not converted any God Point, so I am currently level 11.】

【What if I convert the God Point?】

【It depends on which system the host converts them to. Currently, the host has three game systems that can use God Point: two game systems — Sin Game and God-Favored Game, and one Reversal System.】

If the host converts the God Point to the Reversal System, not only can all skills be unlocked, but you can also be promoted to the rank of Sergeant. If it is the game system, then no matter who it is, the first place will be the host.】

"But it cannot be ruled out that there are others who, like the host, are hoarding God Points without exchanging them."

"Alright, I understand. Then let's keep hoarding them for now; I didn't expect these God Points to be so useful."

"Does the host still wish to erase Xiao Yan's memories?" Er Miao asked.

"We'll talk about that later." Su Xi immediately got up from the bed, "Let's do a mission."

"Host, a bounty mission has just appeared. The reward is 1 God Point, and many players are scrambling for it."

"What's so great about scrambling for 1 God Point?"

"Host, this is the first time a mission with a God Point reward has appeared publicly, isn't it?"

"But that Lighthouse Village mission for Xiao Yan had plenty of God Points."

"Er Miao also finds it strange."

"Yes, actually that mission wasn't that difficult. Not only were there God Points, but also a pair of Treasure Daggers."

"Beep-beep—" Someone sent a message to Su Xi in the chat room.

Su Xi opened the chat room.

Wang Weilin—"Da Miao, do you want to go do the bounty mission and earn God Points?"

Su Xi—"There's only 1 God Point."

Wang Weilin—"After completing the mission, it can be converted into Game Points and split equally."

Su Xi—"Alright, shall we meet up?"

Wang Weilin—"Mm."

Geng Shu—"Count me in."

Wang Weilin—"Haha, are you done with your mission?"

Geng Shu—"Just finished."

Su Xi—"How much did you earn?"

Geng Shu—"."

As he spoke, Geng Shu sent a red envelope to Su Xi.

Su Xi clicked it open—"Received a red envelope from friend player Geng Shu: 5000 Game Points."

Su Xi—"Brother, you are my own brother~ Thank you for the red envelope, brother."

Wang Weilin immediately sent a red envelope to Su Xi as well.

Su Xi clicked it open—"Received a red envelope from friend player Wang Weilin: 3000 Game Points."

Su Xi—"Wang Laoshi, you will always be my dearest and most respected teacher~ Thank you for the red envelope, Wang Laoshi."

Wei Manshen also sent a red envelope to Su Xi.

Su Xi was stunned for a moment, then clicked it open; it was Game Points!

Su Xi—"Are you forcing me to pay my share of the wedding gift money? Thank you for the big red envelope, sister-in-law~"

Wei Manshen—"Soon, you'll all come to drink at the wedding."

Wang Weilin—"Hurry, hurry. This mission life is here today and gone tomorrow; we must seize the day."

Su Xi gave a 'like'.

Geng Shu followed suit.

Wang Weilin—"Old Geng, you should too. A girlfriend in the game, get married in the game, and after the game ends, hold a baby in the real world—how wonderful!"

Su Xi—"I support Wang Laoshi."

After some joking around, they finally arrived at the bounty mission.

Su Xi—"Subjugate a Fallen God!? A mission related to the God race, isn't that too dangerous?"

Geng Shu—"God Points aren't that easy to earn."

Wang Weilin—"Right, God Points definitely have a major use."

Wei Manshen—"Look at the leaderboard quickly, a God Points Leaderboard has appeared! Someone has already obtained God Points! How terrifying!!!"

Su Xi's heart skipped a beat... No way, is she about to be exposed?!

She hurriedly opened the leaderboard.

【God Points Leaderboard】

First place: Baby Who Likes Hide and Seek—6599.

Second place: Xiao Yan—5000.

There are no others left.

Wang Weilin—"Who are these two so overbearing! 6600, 5000, are they even letting others play?"

Su Xi hurriedly asked Er Miao: "Baby Who Likes Hide and Seek... that's the name you gave me, right?"

Er Miao replied: "Yes, host. To change the name for God Points, one has to use God Points. It cost 1, and Er Miao's heart is bleeding now! Host, hurry and comfort me~"

Su Xi laughed: "Alright, I'll earn that point back for you."

Xiao Yan sent a message to Su Xi—"Xixi, where are you? Let's do missions together."

Su Xi's heart twisted painfully, and then she deleted Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan put all the God Points into a red envelope and sent it to Su Xi.

The result—【System prompt: The other party is not your friend, you cannot use the red envelope function!】
