"Xu Mu, you're right!"
Misty spoke to Xu Mu.
Xu Mu's arrival had snapped her out of it.
Otherwise, she would still have been trying to outdo Jessie.
She would still have been stewing in helpless rage.
Seeing how sensible Misty was,
Xu Mu couldn't help smiling.
Then he carried the Ice Cream he had prepared for Cynthia into the bedroom.
Cynthia saw Xu Mu come in.
She hurried over to him.
Beaming, she said,
"Xu Mu, you're the best!"
With that, Cynthia took the Ice Cream from his hand and sat down to one side.
She began eating it slowly.
Just then, the system's voice sounded in Xu Mu's ears.
[Ding! The system has issued a quest!] [Explore a new world!] [Quest reward: The essence of Xingyi Fist!]
Xu Mu froze when he heard it.
The system had been showing up a lot these past two days!
Then he focused on the quest.
What new world?
Xu Mu hurriedly asked the system,
"A new world?"
"What new world?"
The system's voice sounded in his mind.
[Ding! It's the new world discovered during the last exploration of the Space-Time Rift!] [The host is tasked with exploring it!]
With that, the system fell silent.
A little helplessly, Xu Mu said to it,
"I accept the quest!"
The moment he spoke, the entire world froze!
A Space Gate slowly appeared before him!
Puzzled, Xu Mu asked the system,
"Why has time stopped?"
The system spoke again.
[Ding! This world is very complicated, so the exploration will take a long time!] [For the host's sake, the system has decided to stop time in this world!]
A question suddenly occurred to Xu Mu.
He asked the system,
"How can you stop time now?"
"I remember you couldn't before!"
