Chapter 31: Husband’s Black Card at Will

Chapter 31: Chapter 31: Husband’s Black Card at Will

"You don’t believe me?" Xiao Jinsheng chose to throw Yu Yunxiao into the space first.

She quickly stepped forward, grabbed Yu Yunxiao, and the two figures instantly disappeared in front of everyone.

"She really has a space?" Mo Jiao glanced toward Que Zelian. Que Zelian nodded slightly.

Yu Yunxiao looked around at the vast plains he was now standing on, his cat ears standing upright.

He turned back, shocked, "You really have a space."

But upon turning around, Xiao Jinsheng’s figure was no longer beside him.

Soon enough, Que Zelian was also pulled into the space by Xiao Jinsheng.

After that, Mo Jiao, Huaiqing, and Su Ye were brought into the space as well.

"Look here." Xiao Jinsheng stood by Crescent Lake, raising her hand to point at the four mountain peaks in the northeast, southeast, northwest, and southwest, each representing a different season. "This is my kingdom."

"Bald Mountain." Mo Jiao interjected.

"Can you just keep your mouth shut?" Xiao Jinsheng turned to glare at him.

She knew her space was very empty.

No soil, no grass, no trees, no fish in the water.

You could say that the only breathing life forms in the space, excluding plants and animals, were the six of them.

"Mo Jiao, I just mentioned that your current divorce score is negative 59 points, which is also related to this space." Xiao Jinsheng stated, "Given the relationship between the two of us, it’s genuinely difficult for you to gain points while interacting with me."

"Although you harbor murderous intent toward me, I’m someone who doesn’t hold grudges, is magnanimous, and has great vision and an excellent sense of kindness..."

"Enough flattery." Mo Jiao interrupted her directly. "Just get to the point."

"You see those four mountain peaks, right? They’re not that big. You’ll be responsible for planting the trees there. One hundred trees will earn you one point. They must be at least five years old, and the survival rate needs to be 100%, okay?" Xiao Jinsheng replied with a smile.

"You’re such a skinflint, Xiao." Yu Yunxiao exclaimed in shock.

Xiao Jinsheng immediately fixed her gaze on him. "You’re starting at negative 5 points, and after all this time, you’re still at negative 5 points. You’re barely holding it together yourself, so what are you even chiming in for?"

Yu Yunxiao’s ears lowered instantly, and he snorted coldly as he looked away.

"You don’t have to plant trees, though." Xiao Jinsheng declared confidently, "If you choose not to, just stop opposing me in the future. Obey me, treat me well, and I’ll naturally increase your points."

"I’ll plant trees." Mo Jiao chose without hesitation.

Mo Jiao opened the divorce group and glanced at his current score.

Negative 59 points. To reach 100 divorce points, he needed to gain 159 points, which meant planting 15,900 trees.

Humph!

Planting trees is no big deal!

It beats having to endure Xiao Jinsheng’s obnoxious attitude and trying to appease her.

Xiao Jinsheng, just you wait!

Once he finished planting all the trees and divorced her successfully, it would be the end of Xiao Jinsheng!

Mo Jiao enthusiastically volunteered to take on the task of tree planting for the four mountain peaks.

Meanwhile, Xiao Jinsheng discussed her plans for the space: building houses, farming, raising fish, and even breeding livestock.

Clearly, it would be difficult for her alone to handle all these tasks.

But currently, there were still four free laborers at her disposal, weren’t there?

If the space was properly constructed, in case of emergencies, she could simply hide in the space and lie low.

As long as she stayed inside and didn’t show her face, who could find her and harm her?

Staying home was effortless for someone like Xiao Jinsheng.

After planning out the space’s construction, the only thing missing was the collection of various building materials, seeds, saplings, and small animals.

Saplings could be dug out from the forest—it was easy enough.

Small animals could be hunted, although it would be more convenient to buy them from Moon City.

Thinking about the universal currency of this world—crystal cores—Xiao Jinsheng wondered aloud, "How many crystal cores do we have left?"

She only managed to find one Three-Star crystal core in her room, which she sold to Mo Jiao through a black-market transaction.

As soon as she asked, the five men fell silent.

"Don’t tell me... none of you have money." Xiao Jinsheng hesitated.

"I don’t have money," Mo Jiao answered first.

Yu Yunxiao avoided her gaze and looked elsewhere.

Que Zelian and Su Ye simultaneously handed Xiao Jinsheng a black card. "My crystal cores are all stored in the terminal’s crystal core card."

Xiao Jinsheng lived in Moon City, and the city’s management was similarly fully controlled by the terminal.

"Black cards!" Xiao Jinsheng exclaimed, grabbing one of them excitedly. "Weren’t we so broke we were eating jerky and canned food every day? How do you guys still have so many crystal cores?"

To put it into perspective, crystal core savings needed to exceed ten billion for the terminal to issue a black card.

"Ahem." Su Ye rubbed his index finger against his nose and lowered his head.

Que Zelian, meeting Xiao Jinsheng’s suspicious gaze, had no choice but to explain, "They’re just old savings that... we haven’t had a chance to use."

"Same here," Su Ye replied.

"I have one too," Huaiqing said, pulling out his own card.

Xiao Jinsheng was now so stunned by the hidden wealth of these three men that she had become numb.

She didn’t even think to question how easily Huaiqing—given his superpower and Star Level—could produce a black card.

Turns out, she’d been surrounded by three wealthy men all along, while she was the only broke one with a measly Three-Star crystal core?

Que Zelian, however, glanced at Huaiqing discreetly.

Huaiqing adjusted his glasses and offered him a refined smile.

"Take it." Yu Yunxiao stopped hiding and handed Xiao Jinsheng another black card.

"Did you kill that many zombies?" Xiao Jinsheng asked, puzzled.

"Do you need to kill zombies to gather crystal cores?" Yu Yunxiao sneered, revealing a warm-colored glow in his palm. "I’m a Healing Superpower, after all."

"Honestly, it’s just you who keeps opposing me. Take a look outside—what Beastman isn’t polite to me?" Yu Yunxiao muttered.

Most Beastmen on Mist Continent would save crystal cores before marriage.

This was so they could properly support their female counterparts after getting married.

Yet when they arrived with their luggage looking for Xiao Jinsheng on the first night, all five men were kept outside her courtyard gate and denied entry.

This unexpected situation led to the five strangers quietly hiding their dowries out of mutual understanding.

From then on, the resources used in daily life were always sought out on the spot.

If they found resources, they ate; if not, they starved—never touching their savings.

Holding four black cards, Xiao Jinsheng’s hands trembled from sheer excitement.

Soon enough, another black card was handed to her.

Xiao Jinsheng looked up and saw it was Mo Jiao.

Mo Jiao’s purple eyes lowered slightly, and he sneered, "Selling one black card for a single Three-Star crystal core? Xiao Jinsheng, you really know how to strike a bargain. You’ll be a commercial genius one day."

"Didn’t you say you were broke?" Xiao Jinsheng ignored his sarcastic tone.

After all, the first—and the only—one to claim poverty had been Mo Jiao.

Initially, she’d felt somewhat comforted knowing Mo Jiao would join her as a penniless companion.

Who knew this man also had a black card?

"Don’t overthink it." Mo Jiao directly shoved the black card into her hand. "I just don’t want to eat, wear, live, or travel on your dime—or your men’s—for fear of being entangled after the divorce."

"Heh." Xiao Jinsheng chuckled coldly.

She fanned herself with the five black cards stacked together, sighing, "The thought of someone who hates me having no choice but to hand over his money—for me to spend—it’s just so satisfying."

Mo Jiao: ...

"Let me out. I want to plant my trees," Mo Jiao urged.

He didn’t want to stay a single second longer in this household.

Divorce! He needed a divorce!

Though Mo Jiao, who was normally the most vocal about divorcing Xiao Jinsheng, suddenly noticed how quiet Yu Yunxiao had been lately. Suspicious.
