Yuanyuan did not feel much about the words "First One," instead asking casually, "Why quit?"
"I've already delayed things like getting married and having children. Now I just want to reach Supreme."
She was still as carefree as ever, daring to say anything. All those years of hardship had not changed her much.
However, she truly was not young anymore. She was even a little older than Zi Jiuxian, already in her seventies.
On Blue Star, she would be considered a middle-aged woman past her prime. In the Empire, women her age without children were even rarer.
Qinghu reminded her again, "You'll still have to go through fighting and killing. You never know when you might die."
"Then I die," Yuanyuan answered very casually. "I don't like a life where you can see the end at a glance."
"Fine, then." Qinghu raised her head and waved to Hua Xiezhi. "Take her to see First One. I still need to observe the tillering."
The Spirit Grain she had planted had yet to produce a harvest. At most, it had sparsely borne a few grains, but she was already very close to success.
Yuanyuan still felt a bit pressured around Qinghu. After all, when they had first met, the aura of a Supreme had been overwhelmingly oppressive.
But facing an A-rank like Hua Xiezhi, the pressure was much less. "You only just bought this villa, right?"
She was practically half a native of Sky Hook and knew the villa's origins very well.
"I didn't ask about that," Hua Xiezhi replied casually. "Lord Nutrient Solution arranged it."
"Lord... Nutrient Solution?" Yuanyuan pondered it, then nodded. "A nickname. That's normal. Are there many Supremes in the team?"
Hua Xiezhi turned to glance at her. "Lord Nutrient Solution is Above Supreme."
"Above... Supreme?" Yuanyuan muttered
