Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Thanks to Q Yue’s Babies for 140 Monthly Tickets, Adding 7 More Chapters

"These are the seeds of the Ice Sea Flower. Will the Female Master accept them?" Shi Xie smiled and said, "They’re useful for practicing control over Ice Element Superpowers."

"Your remark has genuinely piqued my interest." Xiao Jinsheng took the box.

She found the Moon White Shell Box quite exquisite, and the Ice Blue Pearl Seeds were mesmerizing as well.

She casually placed them into her Space.

Thinking she would try cultivating them herself, she hoped the flowers would grow and surprise Shi Xie.

But giving one Beast Husband a surprise meant she would need to surprise the other six Beast Husbands as well.

Equal attention was Xiao Jinsheng’s key to maintaining family harmony.

Counting the seeds, Xiao Jinsheng realized there were exactly seven of them.

She then looked at the bouquet in her arms, worrying aloud, "Are the seeds of the Ice Sea Flower very rare?"

"Each seed can bloom five to seven flowers," Shi Xie explained.

His fingertips rested lightly on a seed, a subtle smile curling his lips. "I gave you precisely seven because, for some reason, I’ve always been drawn to this number."

The first time he participated in a lottery draw, his assigned number was seven.

The second time in a matching game, both he and Xiao Jinsheng ended up with the number seven.

The first time he cultivated an Ice Sea Flower, it took him seven years.

The second time, thanks to Xiao Jinsheng’s help, it only took seven days.

And yet another "seven" connected him to the depths of the sea...

Lost in thought, Shi Xie’s gaze at Xiao Jinsheng was filled with greedy longing.

He held Xiao Jinsheng tightly against his chest, his voice a mixture of affection and grievance: "Female Master, I thought from the beginning that you were merely deceiving me."

You said that when the flowers bloom, we would meet again.

But... why did you leave?

Why did you remain away for so long?

So long that he almost believed he could never see her again.

Luckily, the flowers bloomed, and she, too, appeared.

"When did I deceive you?" Xiao Jinsheng scoffed, lifting her head from his embrace to question him.

"You didn’t deceive me, but I missed you." Shi Xie lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips.

"We meet every day," Xiao Jinsheng replied with a chuckle.

"Mm, but I can’t be apart from you anymore. Not even for a moment." Shi Xie murmured huskily.

Xiao Jinsheng was dazed by his kisses, giving up on trying to decipher the nuance of his words and choosing instead to enjoy the moment.

In Xiao Jinsheng’s household, life was peaceful and idyllic.

Next door at Bai Yan’s, however, a heated argument was taking place between her and the Insect Brain.

Bai Yan: [Where’s the promised medicine? A whole afternoon wasted on this!]

Her target was Chen Yunji. This entire afternoon, she had been observing his movements.

Watching him plant trees despite being blind, and seeing him plant farther and farther from the correct location without Xiao Jinsheng intervening, Bai Yan grew increasingly agitated.

Wasn’t this the perfect opportunity for her to act?

But at the critical moment, the Insect Brain failed her.

Despite promising a potion to confuse Chen Yunji, the Insect Brain had yet to deliver.

Insect Brain: [I forgot. Your current Level doesn’t allow you to exchange for a confusion potion.]

Bai Yan: [Are you the system or am I? It was your idea to use the potion at the start, yet you’re now telling me my Level isn’t enough?]

Bai Yan: [Are you messing with me?]

Bai Yan: [As a system, don’t you have any professionalism?]

Something Bai Yan said must have struck a nerve because even the Insect Brain became irritated.

Insect Brain: [Fine. It’s my fault this time. I’ll make it up to you, alright?]

Bai Yan wouldn’t relent: [I’m the Host, and you’re the system. It’s your job to serve the Host.]

Bai Yan: [The functions of your system—if my Level were high enough—should be accessible to me anyway.]

Bai Yan: [If you want to compensate me, you better offer something truly helpful that I don’t already have.]

Frustrated, the Insect Brain retorted: [Alright, alright! I do have something that can help you. The question is, do you dare to use it?]

Bai Yan dismissed its taunt: [What wouldn’t I dare to use? Stop boasting and show me already.]

A black vortex materialized in front of Bai Yan.

Fortunately, she had been stewing over her anger in her room, alone and away from her Beast Husbands.

Thus, when faced with the black vortex, Bai Yan was momentarily startled but quickly regained her composure.

She asked flatly: [What’s this? Space Element Superpower?]

The Insect Brain sneered: [Space? That’s trivial. This is time. This is a wormhole.]

Insect Brain: [Pass through it and you can return to the past of Mist Continent.]

Insect Brain: [You’ve been wanting to strengthen Xiao Jinsheng’s Beast Husbands, haven’t you? If it’s not feasible now, go back in time and claim them before they develop their powers.]

Bai Yan’s eyes widened. Staring at the swirling black vortex, she was utterly stunned.

Unable to contain herself, she spoke aloud, "Seriously? If you had such a powerful cheat, why didn’t you offer it to me earlier?"

The Insect Brain replied testily: [Do you think time travel is simple? I need energy to activate the wormhole tunnel.]

Insect Brain: [I’ve given you the compensation. Whether you dare to use it is entirely up to you.]

Gazing at the vortex before her—a miniature, glittering universe—the starlight within its dark spirals tugged at Bai Yan’s mind, drawing her deeper and deeper.

Her resolve hardened. She asked: [Can I choose any timeline within Mist Continent’s past?]

Xiao Jinsheng had seven Beast Husbands.

And during this visit to Cloud Island for the competition, Bai Yan had noticed several Beast Husbands belonging to other females with impressive talents.

If she could use time travel to take them all under her wing...

Not only would her strength soar, but controlling a powerful army of Beast Husbands while bypassing the Terminal’s surveillance could also secure her dominion over Mist Continent.

In that moment, Bai Yan envisioned herself standing atop Mist Continent, revered and admired by all.

The Insect Brain abruptly interrupted her fantasy.

Insect Brain: [Do you think my energy is limitless? The furthest I can take you back is ten years.]

Insect Brain: [The farther back you go, the more energy I expend. That also shortens the time your body can remain in the selected past timeline.]

Insect Brain: [Furthermore, you can only choose one area as your entry point.]

Even with these constraints, Bai Yan couldn’t resist the allure of such a cheat capable of altering the future.

Her immediate thought was to go back in time and kill Xiao Jinsheng.

But knowing the Insect Brain would never agree to such a thing, she dismissed that idea.

If she couldn’t eliminate Xiao Jinsheng, she would target her Beast Husbands instead.

Xiao Jinsheng had seven Beast Husbands, and Bai Yan closely examined their names on the list.

Seven candidates, and yet she found herself struggling again with the decision.

However, when her gaze landed on Shi Xie’s name, her fighting spirit was instantly ignited.

She clenched her teeth at the thought of Shi Xie, who had once taken two of her lives.

If she could, she would kill him right now.

But contemplating the idea of capturing Shi Xie in the past and binding him with a Contractual Totem, she realized she could not only enhance her spiritual power but also exact her revenge on him whenever she pleased. The satisfaction filled her heart.

Bai Yan: [I choose Shi Xie.]

Insect Brain: [Alright. Which timeline will it be?]

This question put Bai Yan in a difficult position.

She didn’t know much about Shi Xie.

The only information she had was that Shi Xie’s Beastification resulted in a mermaid form—a detail revealed by the Insect Brain.

Bai Yan asked in return: [You’re the system. Don’t you have a full plan to analyze which timeline would be most advantageous for me?]

Insect Brain: [Fine, fine. I’ll calculate it and place you in the timeline where he’s at his weakest—perfect for you to act.]

Insect Brain: [Since you’re traveling to the past, the flow of time is different. One day there equates to one minute here.]

Content with the answer, Bai Yan smiled.

Without hesitation, she stepped into the swirling black vortex.

As the vortex closed, Bai Yan’s figure disappeared from the room.

The moment she emerged from the black vortex, a wave crashed onto the beach, slamming her into the sand and filling her stomach with the salty bitterness of seawater.
