I only want to win over the fairy.

She's an expert at getting someone to ambush them, kidnap them, and then force herself on them. After all, it's as easy as robbing someone. But if she can't beat the other person, then things will be difficult for her.

To put it nicely, she is a celestial beast born and raised by heaven and earth; to put it bluntly, she is an orphan without parents, who can only live in the world. Therefore, she simply cannot do things in a civilized way.

She used to treat Bai Yi as her brother, so they got along very well and there was no need for any barriers between them. However, ever since their friendship turned sour and she secretly gave birth to Yu Gongyi, she has been afraid to see him, especially since their relationship was not yet confirmed and Bai Yi had not yet accepted her.

Aa ...

Why can't I just use a simpler method, like hitting Bai Yi on the head with a stick, knocking him unconscious, taking him away, and having his baby?

Why is he getting stronger so fast?!

There's no other way; now we can only rely on my best friend Bai Ze's abilities.

[Human Emperor's Palace - Demon Emperor's Mansion.]

[Because the Human Emperor's Palace suffered severe damage under Gui Ming's ravages, it had to be rebuilt. As a newly added force among the human race of the Nine Provinces, the ancient demon race naturally received full respect, and even had a luxurious residence built specifically for the current demon race's common lord, Shen Tu, within the Human Emperor's Palace.]

[Whether allowing this demon ruler to reside in the Human Emperor's Palace signifies house arrest or surveillance, or is simply an expression of gratitude for her contributions, is a matter of much debate among various factions.]

Currently, the human race has three Great Emperors. Unless the ancient demon race has the guts of a bear or a leopard, they would have to hold it in if the humans rode on their heads to relieve themselves.

Although Shen Tu, the ruler of the demon race, can unleash the power of an emperor, he was severely damaged in the battle against Guiming and it is unlikely that he will be able to unleash that power a second time.

No one expected that the suggestion to reside in the Human Emperor's Palace and the human race's main camp was made by Shen Tu himself.

Shen Tu knew very well that after using that move, he had essentially put his life into the gun barrel, leaving him with only one chance to resist. Therefore, rather than living in the planned Yingzhou, he would rather move into the Human Emperor's Palace directly. This was his compromise and also a form of deterrence.

Living under your noses is tantamount to swearing allegiance to your human race, so you can't go too far. If you go too far, and she were to erupt, the damage would be something no one wants to see.

Of course, besides considering the race, another important reason is that Bai, as the Human Emperor, also lives in the Human Emperor's Palace, so he can fight against him at any time.

[Drill Ground.]

A fierce wind howled as the two figures faced each other on the field, their resolute gazes revealing their unwavering conviction. No words were needed; the battle was about to erupt. Shen Tu's sweeping, powerful attacks were a testament to his absolute confidence in his strength, a perfect illustration of the aesthetics of power. Meanwhile, his white longsword rippled with an ink-white mist, its gentle color a symbol of masterful skill.

[In the month since you recovered from your injuries, you have repeatedly challenged Bai, but have not won a single one. The number of reincarnation marks on your body has reached forty-seven, and this time is no exception. You were easily defeated, and a new reincarnation mark has been added to your body.]

After carving a new reincarnation mark on Shen Tu, Bai sighed, "That's about enough, isn't it? There's already too much on your butt, and if this continues, your back will be covered too. You didn't have to carve any more."

"Shut up!" Feeling the intense heat from the newly inscribed Reincarnation Mark on his body, Shen Tu cursed viciously, "Since it's a battle, the loser should naturally be dealt with as the winner sees fit. Today, I was simply outmatched. Once I complete my transformation, I will make you pay tenfold!"

This guy is definitely a masochist.

This was the first time Bai Yi had ever seen someone get so addicted to carving marks on their body after being defeated. Even though Bai Yi had stopped carving marks after losing to Bai Yi for the tenth time, this guy insisted on asking why he had carved marks every time he lost before but not now, implying that Bai Yi looked down on him.

I always feel like everyone I meet has some kind of serious illness.

However, besides Shen Tu, there was another guy who also frequently bothered him.

[On the first day of the first month of the year 1146 in the Wanxian Calendar, Bai Ze presents you with a bundle of colorful phoenix feathers.]

On the tenth day of the first month of the year 1146 in the Wanxian calendar, Bai Ze presented you with a portrait depicting your appearance.

On the 21st day of the first month of the 1146th year of the Wanxian calendar, Bai Ze presented you with a string of tassels...

Bai Ze sends me gifts almost every one or two weeks, and the gifts are all kinds of strange. At first, I would take a look, but after he sent me so many gifts, I became too lazy to look. But now when I look at them, my affection level is already full, and I can even make a vow to him.

emmmmm.

Want to try clicking?

Just as Bai Yi was considering whether to click, a new message popped up.

Bai Ze requests to form a vow relationship with you. Do you agree?

Chapter 170 Bai Ze: Sisters, let me check it out for you first

Bai Ze had a lot of fun.

Previously, she treated the cultivation simulator purely as a reward machine. As long as she lived long enough, she would occasionally participate in major events to raise her score, which would result in increasingly generous rewards.

This time, in order to help her best friend Yu Gonghua make a decision, she was experiencing this so-called favorability system for the first time.

At first, she thought it was just a numerical value that expressed the level of affection between two people. Whether it was high or low, it didn't really matter. However, the reality told her that a high level of affection was not just a simple number, but had many other special variations.

For example, if I originally wanted to invite Bai Yi out for a trip, I would have needed to say a few words. However, once I had a good impression of him, I didn't need to say anything at all. I just needed to say, "Could you come with me for a walk?" and he would immediately agree.

Furthermore, the level of mutual affection between the two parties will also affect the voice messages. Currently, my affection level with Bai Yi is full, so there are a lot of voice messages. There are as many as ten different greeting voice messages!

In addition, there will be some special voice triggers in special environments.

For example, on rainy days.

A light drizzle falls, the air is misty. Bai Yi walks in the rain, holding an oil-paper umbrella, quietly listening to the raindrops falling on the bluestone slabs, seemingly simply appreciating the rain. You follow quietly under the umbrella's protection, gazing at the sky. He chuckles softly, "The opening of a play always features flowers and birds, while the end is replaced by dark clouds, storms, and rain. But after the storm, the treasure of happiness will be revealed."

Furthermore, her research revealed that, in addition to these voice lines, there are also special bond storylines when the favorability reaches a certain threshold and the situation is special.

This was something she discovered after quite a bit of trial and error. By clicking the "Review" button in the cultivation simulator, she quickly found the special scene she had previously created and couldn't help but watch it again.

[Triggering a special bond event.....]

The rain grew increasingly violent, the drizzle turning into downpours, disrupting your plans and forcing you to seek shelter in a pavilion.

"What a downer, my clothes are all soaked." You complained to Bai Yi, "With your abilities, you should have been able to sense that the rain was about to intensify, right? Why didn't you help shield me from the rain?"

"If you're constantly paying attention to changes in the outside world, life becomes quite boring," Bai Yi said after evaporating the rainwater from your clothes. "Life always needs a sense of ritual. Right now, if I wanted to, I could easily stop this rain, or even make it rain flowers, but that would take away some of the anticipation."

"You really are strange," Bai Ze remarked. "But now that you mention it, I do feel a sense of anticipation, looking forward to when this rain will stop."

Although Bai Ze's body was weak, she could still manage to ward off the rain and prevent it from getting her wet in the slightest. The reason she got wet was simply because Bai Yi didn't take any action or use his spiritual power to defend himself, so she didn't take any action either.

"It's probably impossible for that period of time, but it's nice to have this kind of leisurely feeling occasionally." Bai Yi sat down. "Besides, don't you think it's a kind of fate?"

"Fate?" Bai Ze asked, puzzled.

"That's right, meeting someone is a kind of fate, but if we don't connect our destinies, we'll eventually remain strangers. That's why people need to communicate and connect to each other. But this kind of predictable thing is ultimately predictable. Always doing the same predictable things brings little sense of anticipation, which is why we need some chance encounters, like this one." Bai Yi looked at the faint smile that involuntarily appeared on Bai Ze's face and couldn't help but tease him, "Before, every time you gave me a gift or asked me out, it always felt like you were on some mission, and I couldn't feel any joy at all. But now you seem quite happy, and that's because of this unexpected chance encounter. My meeting with you was a kind of fate, and the appearance of this rain is also a kind of fate."

"Always focusing on results while ignoring the process can turn you into a rather boring person."

Upon seeing this sentence, Bai Ze immediately held her breath, because she knew that what was about to appear was the most important part of this bond storyline.

The screen, which previously only displayed text, suddenly changed, and a dynamic character illustration appeared.

Inside the rain-shrouded pavilion, a handsome young man approached. His face was incredibly beautiful and refined, his long, jet-black hair tied into a single ponytail and draped over his left shoulder. His eyes shone with a brilliant light, like the sun and the moon. His body was strong and powerful, and the ribbons and colorful tassels around his waist fluttered in the wind.

Just gazing at this stunning scene, she was momentarily lost in thought, becoming completely captivated by it.

The scene continued to change. Bai Yi stretched out his hand, and the power of reincarnation composed of Yin and Yang energies condensed into a seed, which he placed in his hand.

Bai Yi is giving you a Seed of Life and Death Reincarnation. This item may have unexpected effects on the curse on you.

Bai Ze: (￣︶￣)

After reading this storyline about their bond, her feelings of goodwill towards Bai Yi immediately increased significantly, while her contempt and disdain for Yu Gonghua intensified.

This girl is indeed a mediocre woman, always acting like a savage, utterly useless, only good at bullying me because she's stronger. How could someone like her give birth to such a wonderful daughter as Yu Gongyi? How could someone like her meet such a good person as Bai Yi?!

Why is it that someone like Yu Gonghua can meet someone as good as Bai Yi?

Sigh, if only Bai Yi had been from the same era as me back then, at least we could have been rivals and friends, and I could have shown Bai Yi my glory days instead of being a sickly person like this now.

Through gift-giving, spring outings, and the bonuses from the bond storyline, she successfully maxed out Bai Yi's favorability.

When the favorability rating reached its maximum, a button called "Oath" appeared after Bai Yi's name, which piqued her curiosity.

This was the first time she had ever seen a cultivation simulator with this kind of function.

An oath is a treaty that must be kept when a vow is made. As a being from the past, Bai Ze has some understanding of oaths. After all, she has seen many soldiers uphold their oaths, fight bravely, and remain steadfast to the death.

However, I always felt that this vow didn't mean what I thought it meant.

Never mind, I'll just click and give it a try.

Meanwhile, Bai Yi stared at the pop-up message and fell into a brief moment of contemplation.

Bai Ze requests to form a vow relationship with you. Do you agree?

I knew it!

From the moment Bai Ze told Bai Yi that she had a friend, he already knew that it would eventually develop into this situation. A girl tells you that her race is about to become extinct and that she wants to reproduce, and she keeps giving you gifts. You can imagine what will happen in the end.

So, should we accept it or not?

Without much hesitation, Bai Yi chose to accept. After all, he had already promised Bai Ze to help him continue his race, and this was just a simulation, so there was no need to worry too much.

After all, the recent rounds of simulations have been ruined by those who possess cultivation simulators, and oaths have become irrelevant. After all, emotions are really too insignificant in the face of a world crisis.

On April 7th, 1146 of the Wanxian Calendar, Bai Yi granted your request, and you became Daoist partners.

[Your relationship has taken a new turn. Initially, you were only trying to help your best friend, Yu Gonghua, and use Bai Yi to get revenge for you. But as you spent more time with him, you began to fall for his charm.]

Bai Ze: ∑( 口|| !!!

So that vow meant becoming Daoist partners?!

Doesn't this mean I've essentially put a hat on Hanamiya Hana's head? I wonder if she'll beat me up when she finds out.

Thinking of this, she glanced guiltily at Yu Gonghua beside her, then immediately pretended to be nonchalant and looked away, afraid that the other party would discover something.

It would be impossible for her to say that she had no good feelings towards Bai Yi. So far, she has witnessed Bai Yi's rise to power many times and has also established a good relationship with him.

Especially during Bai Yi's conquest of the forbidden zone, his fearless and invincible figure, wielding two swords, facing countless supreme beings of the forbidden zone, was deeply imprinted in her heart with just one glance.

Recalling that invincible posture, she unconsciously crossed her hands and began to rub them together, her heart pounding faster.

This immediately put her in a dilemma. First of all...

Yu Gonghua is her good friend. She knew that Yu Gonghua's target was Bai Yi from the beginning, and she had promised to help Yu Gonghua deal with Bai Yi. However, she ended up becoming Yu Gonghua's Daoist partner by mistake. She felt a little guilty about it.

Secondly, my relationship with Bai Yi is more of a collaboration and friendship. Although I admire and respect him, there are obviously people around him who are more outstanding than me. Moreover, as an old man with no competitiveness, my only use is probably to collect gold coins.

If she were young, healthy, at the peak of her strength, and full of vigor, she wouldn't have considered so many things. She would have simply thought, "Beauties are only for the strong. If you, Yu Gonghua, are not good enough, don't blame me for being disloyal." But now it's different. Without the assets of the Innate Holy Spirit Clan, she's just a pretty face, unable to do anything. Instead, she'll only hold Bai Yi back and cause him a lot of trouble.

But since they've already gotten to this point, she feels very uncomfortable choosing to refuse or end the relationship and give him to Yu Gonghua. However, being with Bai Yi only causes him trouble, which puts her in a dilemma.

Bai Ze pondered for a moment, then finally sighed.

Since we've come this far, why not give it a shot? Besides, it's just a simulation, isn't it?

On April 9th, 1146 of the Wanxian Calendar, you found Bai Yi and expressed that you disliked making a fuss, so it was best to keep your relationship a secret. Bai Yi readily agreed.

"You seem to be troubled by something," Bai Yi said.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly felt the pressure. You're so strong, and so young. You haven't even broken through to the Great Emperor realm yet, but you already possess combat power surpassing a flawless Great Emperor. Your future is limitless. Meanwhile, I can't even beat someone at the Radiant Sun Realm. The gap is too big." You poured out your worries.
