Long Shiyan was speaking with Zi Linglong in the guest room and no one bothered them. It was needless to say that Long Shiyan also figured out that Long Aotian and Long Yuqing had most likely already gone to the slave market together by now. Perhaps Long Pingtian also went with them, but it was highly unlikely that he did.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After a series of discussions, Long Shiyan confirmed that Zi Linglong was the same as the original work’s Zi Linglong. But the only difference was that her owner had changed from Long Aotian to Long Shiyan. However, Long Shiyan had to convince the old men of her house to accept Zi Linglong as her personal maid.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The identity of a personal maid was very useful. The most important point was that personal maids were completely loyal to their master. The family will probably not object to whatever Long Shiyan wanted to do. She will secretly guide Zi Linglong in magic or douqi, help her obtain free will and thought, and guide her worldviews. Zi Linglong will not become the same as the original one. The one that chose to live and die for a man.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This time, Long Shiyan had won against Long Aotian’s protagonist power and was able to help Zi Linglong. She believed that she now had a very important position in Zi Linglong’s heart.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This was good enough.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At this moment, Zi Linglong had already fallen asleep, lying peacefully beside Long Shiyan. Meanwhile, Long Shiyan was leaning on the bed, only a single blanket covered her pair of legs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the air, there was a pearl floating around; it flashed a blue glow. A little girl’s voice sounded from it. “Evil! Long Shiyan, you’re terrible! You actually ravaged a little girl.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Long Shiyan closed her eyes and did not look at the pearl. She just said faintly, “Don’t say anything else. Also, you should call me master.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“I don’t want to. The action of calling you master is like some kind of shameful play. I refuse to throw away my moral integrity in order to do so,” the pearl spoke with a tone filled with self-righteousness.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“This disobedient child needs to be punished,” Long Shiyan whispered. Her small hand reached out to grab it. She pinched it between her index finger and thumb. She then tossed the pearl up into the air, allowing it to fall back into her palm before repeatedly chucking it back into the air.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Boohoo, the host shouldn’t abuse the system. I protest! Protest!” The pearl, Qian Qian, screamed loudly, thinking about how other systems wouldn’t have to receive this type of bullying. Unlike itself, the other systems must have been treated very well by their hosts.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But it had no choice but to live through this. Well, it could be worse.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Long Shiyan snatched it from the air and clenched it within the palm of her hand. She frowned. “You spoke. If you dare act noisy in front of Zi Linglong, then I will dump you into the manure pit for three days.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Groan, you sure do care a lot about her!” The pearl’s voice fell as Long Shiyan proceeded with twirling it in the air.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Long Shiyan, beat it! You better watch out, you idiot! When I leave, your parents will never be revived. Goodbye!” The pearl’s tone was filled with malice, clearly showing that it was displeased with Long Shiyan.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Long Shiyan’s facial expression finally changed. She was frowning, glaring at it. “You shouldn’t assume that I don’t know the real purpose of your sudden appearance. The extent of our relationship is taking advantage of each other. Ah, you can leave now. I don’t care at all,” she said, continuing to play with the pearl with one hand.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“As a matter of fact, maybe I will. How would you know if you don’t need me in the future?” The pearl sounded smug. It didn’t have a body, so Long Shiyan could only judge its emotions based on its voice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Really?” Long Shiyan’s heart sunk, but on the surface, she did not expose her true thoughts. “I can find another way without you. You are just an immature guinea pig and everything you do is suspicious.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Boohoo, this woman is dreadful, but this might also be a positive aspect. The more terrible she is, the stronger she will be. The more powerful she is, the easier it will be to complete tasks. But that doesn’t change the fact that you still need me.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Therefore, you should call me master.” Long Shiyan pinched the pearl. Although her face seemed innocent, her mind was solemn. She was just acting based on her feelings, but she didn’t expect that she really did guess portions of its true purpose correctly. Although she did not completely know its true purpose, she must take the initiative. Otherwise, if it suddenly became her enemy, she wouldn’t know what to do.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But after seven months of getting to know it, Long Shiyan understood a majority of the system’s role. At the very least, it was different from the systems described in novels. Instead, it was more like…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“I won’t call! I won’t call! I won’t call! I won’t call!” the pearl shouted. “I already told you. If you need to talk, then whisper.” Long Shiyan grabbed it and once again, spun it within her hand.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Hmph, you underestimated me far too early. Zi Linglong cannot hear our conversation. Just now, I already successfully upgraded. So the conversation between the two of us can’t be heard by anyone.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“You can upgrade?” Long Shiyan was slightly surprised.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Of course, I can!” The pearl’s words were filled with pride. “But it depends on your merits. You have successfully prevented Long Aotian and Long Yuqing from shopping alone, which limited their development, and you have successfully captured Zi Linglong. From these achievements, you earned a lot of points, so I was able to upgrade.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Although the rooms were spacious, they were quiet. Inside, she could only hear Zi Linglong’s breathing. After thinking for a moment, Long Shiyan broke the silence. “So, what function did you obtain after upgrading? Could you obtain treasures? Could you obtain money? In the end, I still need to collect more points for you to be able to do anything. You can’t even save my parents yet. Therefore, you’re useless and you should call me master. You better listen to me, or I will die and everything else will die together with me. Evidently, you won’t have an easy time.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then, the pearl spoke with blatant resentment, “Why should I listen to you? At most, we have an equal relationship. If you don’t treat me as your equal, you will never be able to resurrect your parents!”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“You better stop threatening me by using my parents!” Long Shiyan’s eyes narrowed, but she had to give in. She understood that she was being suppressed by the system because of her parents. As long as it continued to have this advantage, she would continue to be enslaved by the system. But… why did she feel like she was bullying a child?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Under her imposing manner, the pearl couldn’t help but tremble. With a weak tone, it said, “I… I will stop. Please don’t eat me.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Long Shiyan: “…”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“We need to work together,” Long Shiyan said. “Don’t you understand by now? You aren’t exactly reliable. Remember the three months we spent in the Tian Jing Mountain Range? How many times did I almost die because of your incompetence?”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When Long Shiyan said that, the pearl was stunned. It fell silent. Then, it said, “Forget it… I’m extremely competent, so I’m willing to listen to you. As for the things that happened in the Tian Jing Mountain Range, I apologize…”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“You’re so obedient now!” Long Shiyan smiled very sweetly as the burden in her heart temporarily disappeared. The system was extremely mysterious and powerful. To be honest, if it wasn’t because of her own irrational behavior in the past, then perhaps she would have a better relationship with the system by now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Its emotional intelligence and IQ didn’t seem to be high, its personality was weak, it was still shaking, and its ability sucked. As for the resurrection of her parents, she still had some doubts about whether or not it could truly do it. But as long as there was a chance of revival, she would not give up.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overall, Long Shiyan felt like she was bullying a little girl. After half a sigh, she decided to give a carrot instead of the stick. “You know what, it’s not like you don’t have any good points.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“What did you say?” the pearl whispered as its voice gradually became softer. If Long Shiyan didn’t listen carefully, she wouldn’t have been able to hear it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“How should I put it? Uh, you are still very useful,” Long Shiyan did not stop praising it, “Such as your extra-large storage space, your knowledge on everything about Long Aotian, and the ability to resurrect my parents.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Anything else?” the pearl seemed to regain its vigor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Well, uh… you probably have more good points!” Long Shiyan searched carefully in her memories, yet still couldn’t find any more relevant benefits.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pearl: “……”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Seeing the brilliance of the pearl slowly dim, Long Shiyan sighed and added, “Well, okay. You are very useful. If it wasn’t for you, then I wouldn’t have known that this was a world inside of a book.” Watching the pearl become glum made her feel bad.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Huh?” The pearl muttered to itself before suddenly yelling, “In truth, you really are grateful to me? Hahaha…” It screamed with joy, then quickly separated from her palm and rubbed itself on her cheek.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Long Shiyan shook her head and smiled. It seemed this system was…a lot simpler than she expected. It was clearly still a little girl. If only… it wasn’t a system, then what would it have looked like within this world?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For what reason did it exist in this world?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She looked down at the sleeping Zi Linglong, and then glanced at the cheerful blue pearl. She closed her pair of beautiful eyes, no longer thinking about the things that were currently unreachable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Long Shiyan opened her eyes again. Presently, she calmed down and asked, “Qian Qian, how many points do I have now? What can I do with them?”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

System Qian Qian returned to normal and replied, “You now have 65 million points and with them, you can resurrect a snail.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Long Shiyan: “…”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Obviously! Although the points are still useless, you can now see Long Aotian’s fate. It seems to have weakened a lot.” As System Qian Qian’s voice fell, an image automatically floated up in Long Shiyan’s mind. It was a profile image with many dense words.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In fact, the lines that were easiest to understand were these lines.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Name: Long Aotian

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Life: Unparalleled

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fate: ….

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Defiance with nature: ….

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wives: 0

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“What does all this mean?” Long Shiyan knitted her eyebrows and asked.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“It is literally as shown,” System Qian Qian explained to her. “Long Aotian is a foreign entity within this world. With his appearance, many unreasonable things will happen in the world. I’m serious. Even the normal rules of the world will collapse.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“So, what we need to do now is to put an end to Long Aotian’s rule-bending and let the world return to its right track, but this won’t be easy. We must start with his women and get rid of his unparalleled luck,” System Qian Qian explained concisely.
