It's Her, It's Her (First Update)

Following Ah Rou's instructions, Xiao Wu came out to meet this uncle. Though she had never met him before, that magical carrot had already made her very interested in this suddenly appearing uncle. But after seeing him, she suddenly felt that something was off about him. He reminded her somewhat of a Mole that had gone mad many years ago.

"Mom, what's wrong with Uncle?" Her use of the word "Uncle" was thick with suspicion.

"I don't know either. Does Lord Qing Di often act like this?" As she spoke, Ah Rou cast a doubtful look at Xiao Qing. On the way here, Xiao Qing had built Ye Qing up into an extremely lofty figure, but the image Ah Rou had just formed in her mind was now crashing down.

At that moment, Ye Qing was rolling around in the snow, letting out strange roars. In short, he was extremely excited. After transmigrating for so many years, he had thought he could remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed before him. But he had discovered that he was wrong. When this good news appeared before him, he was still too excited to contain himself.

Just now, Ah Rou had led Xiao Wu out. Xiao Wu had still been considering how to greet this uncle when Ye Qing suddenly burst into wild laughter, because he had heard the sound he most wanted to hear from Self-Discipline No. 3.

GOOGLE searched TWKAN

"Ding... Special individual detected... Scanning."

"Results confirmed: Soft Bone Rabbit, Xiao Wu, world protagonist. Marketplace unlocked. Quest system officially unlocked."

Ye Qing opened the so-called Marketplace. The items within were not particularly abundant, but Ye Qing still saw what he needed most.

"Rainbow Fruit Seeds... roasted meat pine tree seeds. So all those randomly awarded items from before are listed here." Aside from all sorts of seeds, even the upper and lower volumes of those books were there.

"Hmm, Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, Ink Jade Bamboo, Earth Dragon Golden Melon, Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew... these are all Immortal Herbs, right? Self-Discipline No. 3, was your previous incarnation some kind of farming novel system?"

"Combat memories... techniques for using Soul-Suppressing Roar... Here! Found it. Detailed explanation of the Heaven-Swallowing Hou Shape Transformation method."

"System, give me this Shape Transformation method."

"Insufficient self-discipline points. Unable to unlock."

"...What did you say?! Didn't you say it would unlock when I encountered a key person?!"

"Yes, it has been unlocked. Your purchasing eligibility has been unlocked."

"Then explain why I only have 500 self-discipline points. Look, your daily quest clearly says: complete the self-disciplined schedule for 5 points each day, and each additional companion grants 5 more points, up to 2 people. So many years have passed, and Xiao Qing has been with me too. I should have hundreds of thousands of points by now."

"Yes, but a large amount of self-discipline points was used to activate the Marketplace. These 500 points are your remaining balance."

"You're ruthless." Already familiar with this system's personality, Ye Qing did not continue arguing. He looked at the prices instead. The seeds were not bad, costing 5 points each. The books were practically wholesale-priced; random ones only cost 1 point and came in ten-pound bundles. The more detailed they were, the more expensive they became. Among the Heaven-Swallowing Hou-related categories, the cheapest was the Shape Transformation method, priced at 55,000 points.

Aside from the dispensable items, Ye Qing could not even afford a lucky bag, because even the system's random lucky bags sold for 5,000 points each.

"Fifty-five thousand points... five points a day, with two people that's times three, fifteen points a day, 5,475 a year..."

"It's fine, Host. In just over ten years, you'll be able to unlock it. For a Spirit Beast, that amount of time is nothing. And haven't quests already been unlocked? So you don't even need ten years."

"Really? You pissed me off so much I didn't notice. Let me see."

Quest: Key Individual Xiao Wu, Series One: Help Xiao Wu dominate the Seventh Dormitory (5,000 points), (an additional 5,000 points for crushing Tang San)

Prevent Xiao Wu's sacrifice from occurring (100,000 points)

Ah Rou's cultivation reaches over 100,000 years and she survives (100,000 points)

"Tell me, which of these quests can be completed? Can I pour energy into Ah Rou until she reaches a hundred thousand years?"

"Sorry, no. Spirit Beasts below a hundred thousand years cannot withstand energy infusion. Even diluted energy can only be absorbed once."

"So these quests, not! A! Single! One! Can! Be! Done! At this rate, I'll have to wait nearly a hundred thousand years. After a hundred thousand years, I could just grind daily quests myself. What would I need these quests for?!"

"Keep looking. There are still quests you can complete. It's not just that one series."

Quest: Key Individual Xiao Wu, Series Two: Help Xiao Wu comb her hair (5,000 points)

Teach her common knowledge of human society (5,000 points)

Raise sons poorly, raise daughters richly (5,000 points)

Quest: Key Individual Xiao Wu, Series Three: The True Sister Xiao Wu (??? ten thousand points)

"Does combing fur count as combing hair?"

"It does not."

"Then cross that quest out. Teaching her common knowledge of human society is simple enough, and I roughly understand the part about raising sons poorly and daughters richly. But tell me, what does the true Sister Xiao Wu mean? And what do all those question marks mean?"

"The question marks represent a random number. The program does not permit me to reveal more. Just treat it as a hidden quest. You merely know in advance that it exists."

After casually scanning through the Marketplace list again, he closed it. He could not afford anything, especially the most expensive Gate of Time and Space. Its price of one hundred million points was beyond what he could accept, especially the word "random" after Gate of Time and Space. Who knew what kind of mysterious world lay on the other side?

"But with these two quests, it looks like I'll have to bring these two back to live in the Castle."

When Ye Qing made this request to Ah Rou, she agreed very quickly, without the slightest hesitation.

"The weak rely on the strong. There's nothing wrong with that. We used to have a clan too..."

"But later, everyone was gone. After living for so long, Mom was the only one left. Uncle, do you really have lots of carrots over there?"

"Of course. Even if you want to build a nest out of carrots, that's no problem."

And so, when they returned, there was one more new Rabbit. The number of Castle members had grown from two to four. Ye Qing, however, was pondering a question. Whether it was the Qianjun Ant Emperor, Soul-Devouring Spider Emperor, Titan Giant Ape, or Sky Azure Bull Python, all of them were outstanding members of their respective species.

Sea Spirit Beasts went without saying, while those supreme Spirit Beasts that could become Ferocious Beasts all possessed exceptional bloodlines. Ye Qing had also seen quite a few Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, but among them, carnivorous Spirit Beasts outnumbered herbivorous ones. Plant-type Spirit Beasts were also rare varieties. Even Ah Yin was the unique Blue Silver Emperor among Blue Silver Grass.

In other words, for an ordinary Spirit Beast to cultivate to one hundred thousand years was nearly impossible. Yet Soft Bone Rabbits were among the most ordinary Spirit Beasts. Lightning Rabbits, Dragon Rabbits, Feather Rabbits, and Waijiao Rabbits were all far stronger than Soft Bone Rabbits. Waijiao Rabbits in particular were incredibly powerful. Yet both Ah Rou and Xiao Wu had reached one hundred thousand years of cultivation. Ye Qing guessed that the opportunity must have come from Ah Rou.

Just like King of Ten Thousand Demons, who had once merely been a very weak Demon Eye Magic Tree. But it had been lucky enough for an Immortal Spirit Grass to grow beside it. The Demon Eye Magic Tree Devoured that Immortal Herb and only then entered the ranks of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts.

Since that was the case, Ye Qing wanted to search for it. Perhaps he might find some unexpected gains. The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was in Sunset Forest, so perhaps the Star Dou Great Forest also contained such a precious place. Ye Qing simply did not know about it yet. He had already decided that he would ask Ah Rou later whether she had experienced any extraordinary encounters.

It was not because he was reluctant to spend self-discipline points to grow them himself. He simply felt that good things ought to be collected. If they were left outside, it would be bad if they poisoned some very weak humans or Spirit Beasts to death. After all, every medicine had some toxicity.
