A New Member Joins the Group: Those Closest to the Water Get the Moon First...

Qian Daoliu stood up and looked at Xiao Xue'er.

"I never expected the Ancestral God to approve of you and even bless you, little one!"

His eyes held affection, and a faint smile rested on his face.

"Of course! The Ancestral God is super amazing and super beautiful!"

Xiao Xue'er pursed her lips, excited and proud.

"Then tell Grandpa, what made you think of hunting a Golden-Eyed Thunderstripe Lion? Don't tell me the Ancestral God told you to? And an eighteen-thousand-year-old one, at that!"

Qian Daoliu lowered his head and asked Xiao Xue'er.

"Yes, the Angel Ancestral God told me."

Xiao Xue'er answered directly.

Then a Chat Window appeared before her eyes.

[Spirit Hall Saintess: Has Qian Daoliu gone stupid? @A Leaf Knows Autumn?]

[Love-Starved Little Angel: Hmph, my grandpa is very smart, not stupid. The Group Owner must be lying.]

She stared at the Chat Window and lavished praise on Qian Daoliu.

[I Am the Angel God: I'm curious.]

Li Qiu finished breakfast with the Shrek Seven Devils.

Flender walked over. "All right, today is the day we start actual combat at the Soto Great Soul Arena. Let's go!"

"That's right. Time for hellish training. Run there!" Yu Xiaogang said, his hands clasped behind his back.

"Then I'll wait for you at the Soto Soul Fighting Arena!"

Li Qiu took out the Soul-Guide Car, opened its door, and got in.

"I want to ride too!"

Ning Rongrong ran over and darted into the Soul-Guide Car.

Zhu Zhuqing followed her inside.

"Get out, both of you! You have no respect for your elders! Disobeying your teacher's orders-do you believe I'll expel you?"

Yu Xiaogang barked at Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing.

His face was stern.

Then he looked at Li Qiu and said, "I wasn't talking about you..."

"Tch... you washed-up old geezer... how dare you yell at me? Do you believe I'll buy Shrek Academy, become the dean, and make you run every day?"

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Ning Rongrong immediately unleashed her money power.

She left Yu Xiaogang speechless.

Then he said, "Even if you want to buy it, Flender won't sell. Besides, this village is only rented!"

"Then I'll buy the village!"

Ning Rongrong huffed.

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong get into the Soul-Guide Car, Xiao Wu was filled with envy. She wanted to ride too, but in the end, she didn't get in.

"All right... if they don't train, they don't train. As long as they can grow stronger later!"

With that, Flender led the group running forward. "Let's go!"

Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Dai Mubai had no choice but to miserably run after him.

[Ding, you may randomly invite one member to the group.]

Li Qiu froze, not expecting a pop-up from the group all of a sudden.

He immediately selected [Invite].

The next moment.

[Little Cat Who Loves Fish has joined the Past and Present Chat Group.]

[Love-Starved Little Angel: Welcome, @Little Cat Who Loves Fish! Another new member! This is great.]

[Spirit Hall Saintess: Welcome, @Little Cat Who Loves Fish.]

[I Am the Angel God: Welcome to the Past and Present Chat Group.]

[Moon Palace: Hello, little kitty. I'm Little Dragon.]

[A Leaf Knows Autumn: Welcome, new member @Little Cat Who Loves Fish. I'm the Group Owner.]

Zhu Zhuqing stared blankly at the Chat Group window before her,

her cherry lips gaping wide,

What was this?

What was going on?

Why was something like this appearing before my eyes?

She was so excited that her ample chest rose and fell.

Still, she pretended to be calm.

[Little Cat Who Loves Fish: Hello, everyone. Why are there two angels and a Spirit Hall Saintess? Are you all from Spirit Hall? And there's a Moon Palace too. So many halls and palaces! Who are you all?]

[Love-Starved Little Angel: Yep, I'm from Spirit Hall. @Spirit Hall Saintess, you can tell at a glance that she's from Spirit Hall too. @I Am the Angel God, this is my Ancestral God, the Angel God!]

[Little Cat Who Loves Fish: The Angel God really exists?]

Zhu Zhuqing frowned at the contents of the Chat Window.

Could this be a scam?

Were they trying to trick me?

But I didn't have anything worth swindling.

[Spirit Hall Saintess: She exists, but not in the Group Owner's space-time. She exists in a past space-time. Which space-time are you from, and what's your name? Little kitty-does that mean you're cute?]

[Little Cat Who Loves Fish: Guess!]

[Spirit Hall Saintess: How could I possibly guess without any information?]

[Little Cat Who Loves Fish: I'm from the Star Luo Empire, and I'm currently level twenty-seven.]

[Spirit Hall Saintess: No idea. @A Leaf Knows Autumn, Group Owner, you should know, right?]

[Love-Starved Little Angel: @A Leaf Knows Autumn, Brother Qiu, tell us who she is and which space-time she's from.]

[I Am the Angel God: Yes, let the Group Owner tell us.]

[A Leaf Knows Autumn: She should be Zhu Zhuqing. Her martial soul is the Hell Spirit Cat. She's twelve this year and level twenty-seven.]

[Spirit Hall Saintess: Damn it! She's a woman from the same space-time as the Group Owner!]

[Love-Starved Little Angel: Heehee... Young Stepmother is jealous! Young Stepmother is jealous! Everyone, come look...]

[I Am the Angel God: Oh, I think I understand now!]

[Spirit Hall Saintess: Take a photo and show us. Here's how...]

[Little Cat Who Loves Fish: Oh, [flattering photo]...]

She took a photo of herself with Ning Rongrong and the person driving up front.

Naturally, she leaned diagonally toward the front passenger seat to take it.

[Spirit Hall Saintess: Great Heavenly Creation Palm...]

Young Bibi Dong's eyes widened. This Fish Who Loves Cats-no, Little Cat Who Loves Fish-was actually Zhu Zhuqing.

She was in the same space-time as Group Owner Zhi Qiu, and even at the same academy.

An inexplicable fire began spreading through her heart.

[Love-Starved Little Angel: Haha, heehee, Young Stepmother is getting anxious! Young Stepmother is getting anxious! What's that saying again? Oh, right! Those closest to the water get the moon first. The rose's thorns pierce your heart, little by little...]

[Spirit Hall Saintess: @Love-Starved Little Angel, you little brat, shut up, shut up, shut up...]

Young Bibi Dong sped off in the Soul-Guide Car and nearly crashed into a tree.

Elder Lion jumped in fright. "Whoa... Saintess, be careful!"

Whoosh...

Young Bibi Dong immediately turned the steering wheel.

She steered the Soul-Guide Car aside.

And sped toward her destination.

Meanwhile, the Angel God Statue where Little Qian Renxue and Qian Daoliu had been was surrounded by consecrators and elders.

Qian Xunji had come too.

The adult Bibi Dong stood nearby, watching.

They were all tremendously excited.

None of them had expected the Angel God to manifest.

Meanwhile, Little Qian Renxue drove the Soul-Guide Car, carrying Qian Daoliu as she flew into the distance.

The Soul-Guide Car filled the consecrators with envy.

[Love-Starved Little Angel: Piercing your heart, little by little... those closest to the water... those closest to the water...]

[Little Cat Who Loves Fish: ??? What are you talking about? By the way, what's this group for?]

[Love-Starved Little Angel: Just read the group announcement.]

Zhu Zhuqing immediately read the group announcement and understood its contents. So that was how it worked.

In this group, leveling up and meeting activity requirements earned lottery draws, and items could even be sent across space-time.

[A Leaf Knows Autumn: @Little Cat Who Loves Fish, you can obtain the Angel Meditation Technique by placing your faith in the Angel God.]

[Spirit Hall Saintess: Don't give it to her...]

[Little Cat Who Loves Fish: Loyalty, loyal orange!]
