What, a Red Envelope? The Boss is So Generous!

"Mimi, Mimi..."

In the Aili Secret Pavilion, the pink fluff-ball Mimi floated in mid-air, tilting her head with a puzzled expression as she watched Ye Qiong sitting cross-legged on the ground.

She didn't quite understand what Ye Qiong was doing right now.

And what were those yellow and purple halos circulating around his body?

"Mimi?"

Suddenly, a surge of power poured into her body. She felt an incomparable sense of comfort, and at the same time, it seemed as if some wondrous knowledge was flooding into her mind.

Soul Skill? What was that? It seemed... very impressive.

Mimi waved her little fists rapidly, feeling quite excited.

The soul rings had been fully absorbed, and Ye Qiong slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was Mimi in the air, excitedly waving her little fists.

Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but smile.

Mimi was as adorable as ever.

"Mimi?"

Seemingly sensing Ye Qiong's gaze, Mimi immediately stopped her movements and turned to look over.

Seeing Ye Qiong stand up, she excitedly flew into his arms.

"Mimi!"

Ye Qiong rubbed her little head and asked with a smile, "Mimi? Did you learn some kind of soul skill?"

Mimi blinked her large, round eyes and nodded excitedly.

Seeing this, Ye Qiong immediately summoned his soul rings.

Two yellow and one purple; one yellow was five hundred years, the other eight hundred, and the purple one was one thousand years.

For now, he didn't need to worry about the so-called soul ring configuration.

In any case, his soul rings could accumulate age; to him, the configuration didn't matter as long as he could successfully break through his level.

After absorbing the three soul rings, his level had successfully broken through to thirty-two. After that, he only needed to work hard on cultivation...

Ye Qiong froze, because he suddenly remembered another use for emotional points.

Leveling up!

Damn it, then why bother cultivating? Wouldn't it be better to just use emotional points to level up?

Cultivation was impossible; he would never cultivate in this lifetime.

However, his emotional points were a bit insufficient right now. It seemed he would have to interact more with the group members.

As for the soul skills of the three rings, Ye Qiong was very familiar with them.

They were all skills he and Mimi had used together when fighting in Omphalos in his past life.

What Mimi had just displayed should be his current third soul skill.

Third Soul Skill: Bad Guy! Trouble!

He remembered this skill was extremely powerful, especially in the currency wars developed by the Interastral Peace Corporation. Once cast, Mimi could directly transform into Platinum Mimi.

To the enemy, it was ora ora ora...

"Mimi, remember this soul skill. When we go out on adventures and encounter bad guys, you use it on them to protect me, understand?"

"Mimi! Mimi!"

Hearing Ye Qiong say this, Mimi looked at him and nodded earnestly in agreement.

Mimi would help Ye Qiong beat up the bad guys!

Seeing Mimi's well-behaved appearance, Ye Qiong's mood became even more pleasant.

He carried Mimi to a giant tree.

This was the place he had visited most often while accompanying Xi Lian.

The small pond, the giant tree, the swing...

He had consciously kept everything here the same over the years, and there hadn't been any major changes.

Look at those two little seals; they were still keeping each other company in the pond to this day.

"Mimi..."

Mimi looked at everything here, feeling a sense of familiarity, yet she couldn't recall anything. She could only look up at Ye Qiong for help.

Ye Qiong lowered his head, gently stroked her head, and said, "It feels familiar, but you can't remember what this place is, right?"

"It's okay, take your time. One day, you will remember. I believe that day will come."

With the chat group, he only needed to work hard to earn emotional points. One day, he would be able to turn Mimi back into Xi Lian and have her remember everything from the past.

And after that, he could take Xi Lian to adventure across the Douluo Continent, And then, return to the Honkai Star Rail World, and continue to Trailblaze toward tomorrow!

Two days later, Ye Qiong held the pink fluff-ball Mimi, his fingertips tapping lightly to reopen the chat group that had been silent for two days.

"Mimi?"

Mimi tilted her little head, looking curiously at the screen in front of Ye Qiong, her tiny paws even attempting to touch it.

Ye Qiong smiled and gave her furry head a No Petting Cats, discovering that the group already had 999+ messages.

"Are they really that chatty?" Ye Qiong shook his head with a chuckle and tapped the AI summary feature, which was available only to him.

A few seconds later, through the system's AI summary of the group chat logs, Ye Qiong learned that after he logged off the day before yesterday, the argument between Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong in the group had never ceased, providing the other group members with plenty of drama to feast upon.

Furthermore, Liu Erlong's secret identity, just like Bibi Dong's, had been exposed, and the person who exposed her was none other than Bibi Dong herself.

"Sigh~ women," Ye Qiong couldn't help but lament.

However, one had to admit, for Yu Xiaogang to make two powerful women so devoted and so crazed over him, he was quite the achiever.

Of course, none of this changed his assessment of Yu Xiaogang as despicable and incompetent.

[Pagoda Suppresses River Demon: [Wishing you prosperity]]

???

Ye Qiong stared at the message that suddenly popped up on the screen with a face full of question marks, then immediately reacted, tapping rapidly with his finger.

"Holy crap! Thirty thousand gold soul coins!"

The boss is generous, the boss is the best.

"As expected of the young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the wealthiest in the world; her spending is truly lavish," Ye Qiong couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

He hadn't expected them to learn how to use the red packet feature in the group chat so quickly, and Ning Rongrong had taken this opportunity to send one out to show off her financial power.

Although gold soul coins were of no use to Ye Qiong at the moment.

But once he could leave this place and head out into the world, he would definitely need them sooner or later.

Better to save them for now.

[First Cute Bunny claimed your lucky red packet.]

[Begonia Blossoms claimed your lucky red packet.]

[...]

[First Cute Bunny: The boss is generous!]

[Begonia Blossoms: The boss is generous!]

[No Petting Cats: +1]

[I Am Not Swallow: The boss is generous!]

[I Am Not Swallow: The boss is generous!]

[...]

In the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the pink-haired girl looked at the string of "The boss is generous" messages on the screen, her face full of triumph.

She had discovered this red packet feature by accident while exploring the chat functions just a moment ago.

So, she had a sudden whim to see if she could pack gold soul coins into this so-called red packet and share them out.

To her surprise, it actually worked!

Ning Rongrong thought that using money to make friends and show generosity was a fantastic idea.

Look at that, this is the strength of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!

However, she wasn't doing it just to show off her wealth.

It was mainly because the people in this group were all super awesome, they spoke so nicely, and she really loved it here.

In this group, conversing with others while hiding her identity gave her an unprecedented experience.

This was much more interesting than those people in the sect who only knew how to flatter her.

[Your red packet was claimed in 30 seconds, Face-Tanking Ultimate is the lucky winner.]

[First Cute Bunny: !]

[I Am Not Yanzi: ?]

[I Am Not Swallow: ?]

[No Petting Cats: .]

[...]

Well, I'll be...

Ever since the group owner said he would share more revelations next time two days ago, they hadn't seen him in the group for two days.

They didn't expect that a single red packet today would flush him out.

[Pagoda Suppresses River Demon: Group owner, have you resurrected?]

[Face-Tanking Ultimate: @Pagoda Suppresses River Demon, Little Mouth, are you cursing me right here?]

[Pagoda Suppresses River Demon: Tee-hee.]

[Face-Tanking Ultimate: @All Members, hey hey hey, I'm back again.]

[First Cute Bunny: Group Leader brother! Where have you been these past two days?]

[I Am Not Yanzi: I thought you'd gone offline.]

[Fire-Breathing Dragon: Hmph! You bastard, what kind of stunt are you trying to pull now? Let me warn you, don't you dare pull anything on me!]

Watching Liu Erlong's warning, Ye Qiong let out a sinister, cackling laugh.

To think she would dare threaten this group leader?

Heh heh, then you're in for a world of hurt!
