Mimi, Just Like the First Meeting

In front of the screen, Liu Erlong stood frozen in place, her entire body turning ice-cold.

She refused to believe everything before her eyes, no matter what.

This was completely different from what Yu Xiaogang had told her back then!

Yu Xiaogang had told her that it was Bibi Dong who had abandoned him for the sake of power within Spirit Hall, and that he was the victim in that relationship.

Yet, the truth in the video was so subversive to her perception.

She loved Yu Xiaogang deeply, so she naturally chose to believe his words, and because of that, she had hated Bibi Dong for twenty years.

But now, this so-called "truth" made her twenty years of hatred and obsession look like an absurd joke.

No, it can't be true! This Group Owner must have forged it! Xiaogang wouldn't lie to me, would he?

Crown Prince Residence.

"Clang!"

With a crisp sound, a teacup was smashed violently onto the ground, shattering into pieces.

Qian Renxue's body trembled violently, her face as pale as paper, and her emerald eyes filled with bloodshot veins.

Shock, fury, humiliation!

This was... her origin?

She was not the crystallization of love, but a sinful, filthy product?

The mother she had always hated had actually... actually...

The man she had always thought was her father, whom she had even secretly admired, had actually done such a base and shameless thing!

"Ahhhhhhh!"

Qian Renxue roared silently in her heart, an unprecedented wave of violence shattering all of her reason.

(Monstrous hatred emotion points from 6G Sky Wing +300!)

Meanwhile, the bedchamber in Spirit Hall was already in complete disarray.

Bibi Dong was like a madwoman, grinding everything in the room into dust.

Her most unbearable, most painful scar had been ripped open and exposed to the public in such a bloody fashion.

Her dignity and her pride were crushed into pieces at this very moment.

[Most Beautiful Pope: Group Owner!]

[Most Beautiful Pope: I. Want. You. Dead!]

(Extreme resentment emotion points from Most Beautiful Pope +500!)

"Holy cow!"

Ye Qiong watched the two massive influxes of emotion points that had instantly maxed out, and he was so excited he nearly jumped up.

This wave was an absolute windfall!

Ye Qiong completely ignored Bibi Dong's death threat and cleared his throat.

It was time for the final harvest.

[Face-Tanking Ultimate: Everyone, let's review the entire incident now.]

[Face-Tanking Ultimate: Qian Xunji was a demon. He used the most despicable means to destroy a genius girl. He is the primary culprit, without a doubt.]

[Face-Tanking Ultimate: But, what about that so-called 'Grandmaster'?]

[Face-Tanking Ultimate: When his lover suffered a tragedy and needed him the most, where was he?]

[Face-Tanking Ultimate: He chose to escape, he chose to retreat, leaving a woman to face hell alone, and later, he even accepted another woman's love with a clear conscience.]

Ye Qiong's words were like a heavy hammer, smashing hard into the hearts of Liu Erlong and Bibi Dong.

That's right, what about Yu Xiaogang?

Why did he just walk away back then?

[Face-Tanking Ultimate: So, looking back now, this man is not just a liar, but a coward.]

[Face-Tanking Ultimate: A coward through and through.]

(Grief and indignation emotion points from Fire-Breathing Dragon +280!)

(Despair emotion points from Most Beautiful Pope +200!)

(Hatred emotion points from 6G Sky Wing +150!)

Another massive wave of emotion points poured in.

Ye Qiong watched the silence fall over the group, knowing that this harvest was about as good as it would get.

[Face-Tanking Ultimate: Alright, that's all for today's revelations. I'll share more in a couple of days.]

The tea spilled today was enough; any more would be pushing it.

Leeks must be harvested crop by crop, so one has to give them some time to settle their emotions.

Closing the group chat, Ye Qiong looked on with satisfaction at his surging emotional points.

At this moment, the emotional points displayed on the system interface totaled over three thousand!

"Inject all six hundred and twenty emotional points into my first martial soul!"

He decided to resolve the issue of the seed's evolution right here, right now!

Ye Qiong summoned the seed, and it immediately began to glow brilliantly, starting to stir restlessly.

[Martial Soul: Seed of Immaculate Purity (Evolution Progress 48%)]

[Martial Soul: Seed of Immaculate Purity (Evolution Progress 53%)]

Watching the progress bar climb steadily, Ye Qiong felt incredibly excited, a faint sense of anticipation beginning to stir within him.

[Martial Soul: Seed of Immaculate Purity (Evolution Progress 69%)]

[Martial Soul: Seed of Immaculate Purity (Evolution Progress 77%)]

Under the infusion of energy from the emotional points, the seed spun continuously, its pink radiance growing brighter and brighter until, a moment later, it transformed into a dazzling ball of light.

[Martial Soul: Seed of Immaculate Purity (Evolution Progress 98%)]

"Change! Change! Change, damn it!"

Seeing that the progress was about to be completed, Ye Qiong was beside himself with excitement; he stared at the ball of light without blinking, almost forgetting to breathe.

It was close, it was about to appear!

The little one he had been longing for for over five years was finally about to emerge.

As the light swirled, it gradually condensed into a familiar silhouette.

[Martial Soul: Seed of Immaculate Purity (Evolution Progress 99%)]

Seeing this outline, Ye Qiong had already automatically filled in the appearance in his mind.

[Martial Soul: Seed of Immaculate Purity (Evolution Progress 100%)]

The light gradually faded, and a figure slowly revealed itself.

Long ears, a fluffy tail, chubby little hands, and plump little legs...

Seeing this familiar figure, Ye Qiong almost instinctively blurted out her name.

"Mimi..."

Hearing Ye Qiong's voice, the little one tilted her pinkish head, her large, round eyes opening wide, filled with curiosity.

"Mimi?"

It was still that reassuring and familiar cry, just like their first meeting.

"Long time no see, welcome back, Mimi..."

[Name: Ye Qiong]

[Group Nickname: Face-Tanking Ultimate (Group Owner)]

[Age: 12 (???)]

[Martial Soul: Mimi, Void Archives (Main functions temporarily sealed)]

[Level: 30]

[Spirit Ring: None]

[Emotional Points: 330]

On his personal panel, emotional points were still trickling in, but Ye Qiong had no interest in checking what the people in the group were chatting about.

He was currently holding Mimi, carefully examining the system's exchange shop.

Mimi had been awakened, and one hurdle on the path to becoming stronger had been cleared. As for the Void Archives, he had no use for its main transformation functions for the time being, so he had no intention of unsealing it.

Next, it was time to add a spirit ring and break through the level shackles.

As it happened, the system's exchange shop could exchange for spirit rings.

The spirit rings in the exchange shop were priced by age; the higher the age, the more points required.

A ten-year spirit ring cost ten emotional points, a hundred-year ring cost one hundred, a thousand-year ring cost one thousand...

The highest reached one million years, requiring one million emotional points to exchange.

Priced this way, it seemed quite reasonable.

However, looking at his balance of only two thousand-plus emotional points, Ye Qiong couldn't help but show a troubled expression.

If he wanted the optimal spirit ring configuration of yellow-yellow-purple, that might not be difficult.

However, he, Ye Qiong, was at least a Rank 30 innate soul power genius; wouldn't using this specific configuration be a bit of a waste?

Just as Ye Qiong was struggling with the dilemma, a line of small text caught his attention.

[Note: This soul ring can be absorbed cumulatively.]

"Cumulative absorption!" Ye Qiong's eyes widened in disbelief.

Could this cumulative absorption mean that after redeeming and absorbing one soul ring, he could stack another one on top of the original to increase its age?

Holy crap, this wasn't just a soul ring—it was a cheat code!

"Then I'll choose..."
