[Although it does sound painful...]

[But you can't be so cruel. Even after cultivating to the level of Immortal Emperor, you still hold a grudge against me, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, right?]

Bai Qiuyuan then continued reading.

{Because this modifier is bug-level, if discovered by the other system, the system may use the form of a task to order the other party to fix the bug, which will eliminate the host.}

{The host needs to avoid the worst possible outcome.}

Bai Qiuyuan: "..."

[You still know you’re a bug…]

Just as Bai Qiuyuan was thinking this, the modifier continued to display.

{This modifier has been completely bound to the host and cannot be separated for life.}

{Currently, this modifier has summarized two tasks for the host:}

{1. Kill Yang Xueqing now while she's unconscious. Once she dies, the system will also disappear.}

{2. If Yang Xueqing is not killed, she may be hunted down by the system she carries in the future.}

{Task reward: None (configurable).}

{Task penalty: None (settable).}

Bai Qiuyuan: "..."

[No mission penalties... No mission rewards...]

[In other words, the editor proposed this task just to remind himself.]

【Instead of actually having a mission? ...】

[By the way, you can set your own rewards and punishments, which makes it seem like you are giving yourself a task.]

Bai Qiuyuan was silent for two seconds and then asked.

"You (Modifier) ​​actually have (self) awareness, right?"

The editor did not answer Bai Qiuyuan.

Bai Qiuyuan: "..."

Just when Bai Qiuyuan was wondering whether the modifier had self-awareness, a girl's voice rang out.

"Thank you, senior, for your help."

"May I ask who you are, senior? Why are you at the bottom of this cliff?"

Bai Qiuyuan was stunned at first, then turned around and looked at Yang Xueqing who was lying unconscious behind him.

Because Bai Qiuyuan had put away the night pearl in order to free up his hands to save people, the bottom of the mountain was dark.

The two were separated by some distance, and Bai Qiuyuan could only vaguely see a person half-kneeling on the ground in the darkness.

Bai Qiuyuan: [He was actually pretending to be dead. I almost got tricked...]

[That was a close call. I almost said "modifier"...]

Bai Qiuyuan: "..."

[Would you like to discuss modern codes...such as "Quiet Night Thoughts"?]

"No, saying it would reveal that I'm also from Earth, which would only arouse unnecessary suspicion and have the opposite effect."

After a moment of silence, Bai Qiuyuan said.

"Ahem, I'm just an ordinary cultivator who entered the secret realm to practice. Who are you?"

After hearing this, Yang Xueqing ignored Bai Qiuyuan's childish voice and began to explain.

"I am Yang Xueqing from the Yang family, a cultivator at the second stage of foundation building. I was just forced to the edge of a cliff by... a demonic beast, so I jumped off the cliff to save my life."

"Thank you, senior, for saving me."

After hearing this, Bai Qiuyuan immediately sighed in his heart.

[When she mentioned the monster, she paused. It seems that the person who forced her to the cliff might be a human.]

[According to the melodramatic plot of the previous life, it's probably because someone in the Yang family disliked this little girl born to a concubine and sent someone to kill her, or maybe she was just too beautiful, so she attracted jealousy on the street, etc.?]

If I hadn't known in advance that this person was from Earth, I might have been fooled by her.

[It seems she has adapted to this world.]

Then Bai Qiuyuan put on a space ring that he had obtained from the Immortal Palace, and then took out the night pearl again.

Light appeared at the bottom of the mountain again. Yang Xueqing looked up and saw Bai Qiuyuan sitting on a rock.

The owner of the childish voice had a face that looked like... a little white rabbit.

Yang Xueqing: “…”

Little white rabbit? ?

In an instant, Yang Xueqing fell into confusion.

To be precise, I saw a small person wearing a white rabbit mask and a feathered robe.

Yang Xueqing looked at Bai Qiuyuan and fell into deep thought.

【? ? ? 】

[Wasn't that a handsome guy who saved me earlier? Who is this person? Why does he look so suspicious?]

[By the way, he actually uses a night-shining pearl as a lamp?? Is he that extravagant??]

Bai Qiuyuan: "..."

(Because few people would bother a child, and because he really wanted to be young again, he didn't change back to his real age.)

Considering that in Yang Xueqing's eyes, his personality is that of a cold and aloof master.

Bai Qiuyuan wanted to add a sense of mystery, so he took out a mask from the modifier and put it on himself.

But at this moment, Bai Qiuyuan suddenly realized that what he was wearing on his face... was a little white rabbit mask.

Bai Qiuyuan put the night pearl in his hand aside, then took out some healing pills from the space ring, threw them to Yang Xueqing, and said.

"My name is Bai Qiuyuan. Here are some healing pills. Take them and heal yourself first."

"I don't know how to heal people. You should treat your wounds yourself."

As he said that, he raised his hand without even looking and aimed it at the Broken Ink Sword stuck in the ground.

click!

In an instant, the Broken Ink Sword flew out of the ground and landed in Bai Qiuyuan's hands!

Then Bai Qiuyuan put the Broken Ink Sword into the space ring.

Looking at the space ring on Bai Qiuyuan's finger and the foundation-building operation just now, Yang Xueqing suddenly took a breath.

[As far as I know, the current market value of a space ring is 80 million spirit stones!]

[Its rarity is comparable to a magical weapon!!]

【And there is no demand for it! 】

[And that Qi-wielding sword just now! Clearly a foundation-building skill!]

[He's already at the same level of foundation building as me at such a young age! Is it true that my aptitude for cultivation is so poor?]

[But it doesn't matter, I have a system to improve my cultivation! ...]

Yang Xueqing found a flat place to sit down and began treatment. While treating the wound, she was thinking about all sorts of things.

[Could this child be the direct descendant of some great family? ]

What was his purpose in approaching me?

【…】

[Alas... I'm truly possessed. I landed here on my own, so why would I suspect someone of ulterior motives?]

When Yang Xueqing thought of this, she didn't want to continue thinking about it. She took the pill that Bai Qiuyuan gave her, swallowed it, and immediately meditated to recover.

Bai Qiuyuan looked up at his head in boredom.

Then, Bai Qiuyuan discovered something...

If he hadn't jumped up to catch Yang Xueqing, she would have fallen directly from the cliff into the pond he had entered not long ago! !

She wouldn't fall to her death! Yang Xueqing might also sink directly to the bottom of the lake due to the huge inertia, and then she might be taken directly to the cave due to the underwater current!

That is where the treasure was hidden before!

Bai Qiuyuan immediately lowered his head and looked at Yang Xueqing with an interested look.

[In other words, this fellow would have stumbled upon the cave by accident, and then directly found the entrance to the treasure!]

[Is this the unique luck of the "protagonist"? I searched for it for a long time before I found it.]

【She's a treasure-hunting rat! 】

[What a talent! It must be fun to be around her!]

Yang Xueqing, who was closing her eyes to heal her wounds, said: "..."

[Why do I feel like I'm being constantly scrutinized by some kind of burning gaze? ]

[It's like the gaze of some monster sizing its prey...]

Yang Xueqing opened her eyes uneasy and looked around, only to see Bai Qiuyuan who had just taken out a string of candied haws from his sleeve.

Yang Xueqing: “……???”

He actually brought candied haws?!

[It’s really great to have a space ring! ! ]

[It's okay, as long as I leave the secret realm alive and complete the mission, I can also have a space ring! ] (sour)

Afterwards, Yang Xueqing stared at Bai Qiuyuan curiously and smiled in her heart.

[You should take off your mask before eating, right? ]

Just as Yang Xueqing was thinking this, Bai Qiuyuan grabbed the part of the rabbit mask below the cleft lip.

Yang Xueqing: “???”

Click!

Bai Qiuyuan gave it a gentle squeeze, and instantly, the lower half of the mask shattered, revealing a mouth.

Yang Xueqing: “!!!”

【There is actually such an operation! 】

Bai Qiuyuan just sat on the stone and ate candied haws leisurely.

"Why are you looking at me if you don't want to heal your wounds?"

"Don't tell me... you want to eat too?"

"Then I'll give you a bunch after you heal your wounds. Just focus on healing."

Bai Qiuyuan, who was in a good mood, saw Yang Xueqing staring at him intently and said with a smile.

Yang Xueqing: “…”

Maybe after coming to this world, many people I meet are here to cause trouble.

This was the first time Yang Xueqing met someone as friendly as Bai Qiuyuan.

Or maybe it was some kind of connection between fellow villagers, but Yang Xueqing always felt that the person in front of her was not annoying.

[Although it's a bit strange, he seems to be a good person...]

When Yang Xueqing thought of this, she revealed a barely noticeable smile and continued to meditate to heal her wounds.

【11】Don’t come over here!!!

[Logically speaking, the protagonist should have an all-knowing, all-powerful grandfather who likes to hide in a ring.]
