Chapter 45
"What? Your Highness, must I also swear an oath?"
"Alright, is there anything else you want to ask?"
Shen Shuan spoke in a nonchalant tone, which was very pretentious.
Qiao Pingsheng remained silent for a moment, then hesitated before asking Shen Shu'an, "Sister, is there anything else I should know?"
Is he asking or not asking?
Based on past experience, knowing too much is not a good thing.
But what if I actually want him to ask me something? Otherwise, why would I ask him?
Shen Shu'an: "?"
Shen Shuan silently turned her head and looked at Qiao Pingsheng.
No, bro, I'm asking you a question, why are you asking me?
Are you putting it here?
"It's okay, don't be nervous. Brother, ask whatever you want, and don't worry about anything else."
Qiao Pingsheng blinked. "Sis, do I have something to ask or not?"
Shen Shu'an: "..."
"If there's nothing else, let's eat. I'm a little hungry."
As she spoke, she touched her stomach; just now, when she was showing off, she had seen the sun setting outside the window.
Upon hearing this, Xuan Yi immediately nodded and naturally followed up, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
He had noticed long ago that the guy who had never gone hungry on Dragon Island was really suffering after leaving the island.
However, she was mindful of her image when out in public, and didn't complain about her stomach rumbling for food.
Qiao Pingsheng: "?"
He looked at the two who seemed to have perfect chemistry, then looked at Xuan Yi with a puzzled expression.
No, fellow Daoist, you've finally spoken up?
However, Qiao Pingsheng himself was also a little hungry. He stood up and said to the two of them, "How about I arrange something special for tonight? After all, I know this town well."
Shen Shuan nodded happily and stood up with a smile.
That's great! Being transmigrated into a book is like going on a trip, and I can even enjoy local specialties.
At the dinner table, the three of them began to exchange contact information.
However, Qiao Pingsheng took out a communication stone, while Xuan Yi and Shen Shuan took out a teleportation stone.
The three looked at each other, and Qiao Pingsheng felt a pang of envy in his heart.
Wow, they're so rich.
At this moment, Xuan Yi noticed Qiao Pingsheng's gaze, silently took out another transmission stone from his storage ring, and handed it to him, saying, "For you?"
Judging from her expression, she seems to really want it.
Qiao Pingsheng: "!!!"
Qiao Pingsheng's eyes widened immediately. He carefully took the transmission stone with both hands and respectfully asked Xuan Yi, "May I ask which major sect Fellow Daoist Xuan comes from?"
Which major sect is so arrogant? How come he's never heard of them?
Xuan Yi: "?"
Xuan Yi was puzzled for a second, but quickly realized that the other party had misunderstood, and said calmly, "I am a dragon."
In an instant, Qiao Pingsheng's eyes became clear.
"Oh, I see, that explains it!"
He suddenly realized what was happening, his expression returned to normal, but he was still filled with envy.
Wow, the dragon race is truly arrogant!
At this moment, Shen Shu'an, who had been devouring the dishes on the table, finally stopped eating and chewed and swallowed the food in her mouth.
He innocently pointed to himself at Qiao Pingsheng and said, "Brother, I forgot to mention, I'm also a dragon."
Qiao Pingsheng: "???"
He narrowed his eyes; this matter was not simple.
How did Wanqiu's younger sister become a dragon? Oh, was today just a dream?
Qiao Pingsheng was momentarily dazed.
But just then, Xuan Yi spoke up: "Fellow Daoist Qiao, are you still going to eat? If you don't eat soon, she'll finish it all."
Shen Shu'an paused with her chopsticks, glaring angrily at Xuan Yi. What did he mean? Did he think she ate too much?
However, when I looked up, I only saw a handsome man with his eyes down, studying the menu.
Xuan Yi didn't even look up, and asked Shen Shu'an, "Shen Shu'an, would you like two more dishes? Sweet or savory? And how about a fruit bowl for tea?"
Shen Shu'an's fierce eyes immediately returned to their big, cute look: "Mmm, I want sweet and sour pork, and this shredded chicken, it's delicious."
Xuan Yi nodded in response, then politely looked up at Qiao Pingsheng again and asked, "Fellow Daoist Qiao, would you like to order some food?"
Qiao Pingsheng met Xuan Yi's gaze, then glanced silently at the several empty plates on the table, and said with difficulty, "...No need, thank you."
Oh, so he wasn't dreaming after all.
Moreover, Wanqiu's younger sister, his older sister, is actually a dragon; judging by her appetite, it can't be fake.
-
At night, after eating and drinking her fill, Shen Shu'an transformed into a dragon and skillfully rolled herself into a donut shape on the bed.
While subconsciously circulating the "Dragon's Breath Technique," she said to the system, "Duck, report your numbers!"
[Yes! Host, today's total points earned: 1160!]
Shen Shuan felt completely comfortable and couldn't help but bring up the system panel again, looking at the numbers on it with satisfaction.
She nodded affirmatively: "Yes, not bad, not bad, today was a great success!"
[Host, you're a genius! You're absolutely amazing!]
Shen Shuan grinned and said, "Hehe, you're quite knowledgeable! Don't you even know whose system you're hosting?"
[Hehe, as expected, you're the host of the duck!]
One person, one rule, chuckles, and everyone gets a good laugh.
Shen Shuan silently counted her points; she now had over 2600 points.
If I save up a little more, I can get "Cloud Void Chasing Moon Sword" in less than a month.
But now that she's about to return to Qingcheng, shouldn't she start making plans soon?
After all, it's unrealistic to expect someone to unleash their divine power to save the female sparrow from childbirth and Qingcheng from danger without any preparation.
If we're not well-prepared, the shock effect will be greatly diminished.
Thinking it over, Shen Shuan said, "Yaya, give me two solutions to save the female sparrow."
[Host, you finally asked! Duck was prepared!]
【Host, Option 1: Spend 500 points to purchase a high-grade healing potion (spirit beast exclusive version).】
Option 2: Purchase a copy of the Complete Guide to Spirit Bird Care and Medical Treatment for self-study, costing 50 points.
The system, well-prepared and brimming with confidence, humphed, "While the host is busy earning emotion points and credits, this system hasn't been idle either!"
However, Shen Shu'an pondered the choice presented by the system for a while.
"Duckling, is this manual difficult to learn?"
[…Hmm, this is a bit difficult, host.]
But ten seconds later, Shen Shu'an decisively waved her hand, choosing to face the challenge head-on: "Yaya, give me a manual first!"
No way! 50 versus 500, that's a tenfold difference! Her stingy nature kicked in, and the thought of spending 500 made her feel terrible!
Shen Shu'an gritted her teeth: "I'm playing high-level games. I'll save Guiyinque with hard work and sweat. If all else fails, I'll resort to technology!"
[Host, you have guts! We think alike! DuckDuck has even prepared a special discount coupon for this!]
[Use this 60% off coupon to purchase the booklet for only 30 points!]
In Shen Shu'an's mind, the system activated its chip, and after the privileges were upgraded, he even had the strength to fight with his colleagues!
Now, very few things in the entire information network can beat it!
"Wow, Duck, you're amazing!"
Shen Shuan was immediately moved. Ya Ya is now thrifty and good at managing the household. It's not easy!
However, while Shen Shu'an was managing everything harmoniously on her side, on the other side, in Xuan Yi's resting room—
"What? Your Highness, must I also swear an oath?"
Uncle Wu, who had been summoned from the void by Xuan Yi, pointed at himself with a look of surprise.
Faced with Wu Bo's somewhat aggrieved look, Xuan Yi, sitting in the chair, remained expressionless and simply nodded.
"Yes, you should also make the oath."
It's just that Uncle Wang stayed on Dragon Island and didn't come out; otherwise, Uncle Wang would have also made an oath.
Xuan Yi thought about what he had heard today, and recalled the profile of that sunset, a look of seriousness appearing in his eyes.
"Uncle Wu, stop talking and make a vow. I need to get up early tomorrow morning to continue my journey to Qingcheng."
Uncle Wu: "..."
Uncle Wu looked at Xuan Yi with a disappointed and shocked expression.
No, Your Highness, how could you utter such cold words?!
Shen Shuan spoke in a nonchalant tone, which was very pretentious.
Qiao Pingsheng remained silent for a moment, then hesitated before asking Shen Shu'an, "Sister, is there anything else I should know?"
Is he asking or not asking?
Based on past experience, knowing too much is not a good thing.
