My Honkai: Star Rail System Arrived Early

She said in a small voice, tears starting to well up in her big eyes.

Seeing this, Ji Yuan immediately flipped over and scooped her up into a princess carry. At the same time, he looked at her twitching, abnormal right foot and carefully avoided touching it.

A tail then flew out from behind Huohuo, warily eyeing Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan glared back at the tail.

He didn't want to be misunderstood as a lolicon. Wasn't he trying so hard just to earn some achievements and save his own life?

He had originally intended to hold her, but a slight misstep sent him tumbling to the ground.

[At the critical moment when the Ten-Lords Commission's Chief Adjudicator Huohuo was in danger, your selfless act protected this vital figure of the Celestial Ark from harm. You are now specially rewarded with the [Suiyang Identification Codex].]

In an instant, Ji Yuan felt a flood of memories enter his mind.

They were all about the Suiyang tribe, containing information from their names and abilities to their personalities and, most crucially, their weaknesses.

However, because there was so much information, Ji Yuan didn't immediately organize it after receiving the memories, only giving it a brief skim.

The codex he now possessed even recorded the Suiyang tribe's Firebringer.

Of course, he only knew about it.

If Ji Yuan actually dared to approach the Firebringer and claim he could control it, he'd likely be possessed before he even got close.

The difference in power was simply too vast.

"But if the Firebringer were caught off guard, and I had time to prepare, then combined with the subjugation technique, there's a non-zero chance I could trick it."

Ji Yuan thought to himself.

However, after a moment's thought, he figured that if he did that, the first people to come after him wouldn't be the Firebringer, but the generals of the Zhu Ming Star-skiff.

"If I get the chance in the future, I might be able to use such methods to trick some powerful Suiyang."

Ji Yuan mused internally.

But he didn't know where to find such powerful Suiyang, nor could he guarantee they'd allow him the time to prepare.

In any case, saving Huohuo this time had yielded immense benefits. If he wasn't afraid of being misunderstood as a lolicon, Ji Yuan would have loved to plant a big kiss on her face right now.

At this moment, Tingyun and Sushang also entered.

Seeing Huohuo whimpering in pain in Ji Yuan's arms, Sushang immediately rushed forward.

She anxiously asked, "What happened to you? Are you injured or sick? Should I take you to a doctor right now?"

Chapter 28: Ji Yuan: Is the System Asking Me to Be a Technician?

You can doubt Sushang's intellect, but you can never doubt her enthusiasm.

In fact, Sushang was so popular on the Yaoging Star-skiff back then, not only because her 'excellent' academic performance made everyone else look bad, but also because her helpful attitude endeared her to everyone.

Jiu Wuling Yi Ba Kui Jiu Ling Jiu

A few years ago, the Interstellar Peace Company on the Yaoging Star-skiff even approached Sushang about playing the role of a naive and lively junior disciple in their drama. The producer at the time told Ji Yuan that Sushang had the natural look of a junior disciple.

Of course, Sushang didn't get the part because she couldn't understand her lines.

Seeing Huohuo's pained expression, she leaned in to ask.

"My foot... it cramped," Huohuo whispered.

"So that's what it is," Sushang nodded, then looked at Ji Yuan.

"Big brother, this is up to you now. When I was little and twisted something while playing outside, he always massaged it for me."

Sushang said the latter half to Huohuo.

"Hey, hey, hey, you're helping a lolicon!"

The tail immediately protested loudly upon hearing Sushang's words.

"A fox person's tail... it can talk?"

Sushang's clear, innocent eyes were filled with curiosity.

She turned to Tingyun and asked, "Sister Tingyun, do the fox people on the Luofu Starfaring Vessel do this?"

"Generally, they don't," Tingyun replied, also a bit curious.

Ji Yuan explained to Sushang, "This isn't Huohuo's tail. It's a Suiyang that resides within her. Huohuo came to me because she wants to learn the techniques for subjugating Suiyang."

"Suiyang... Mother mentioned them. They're very terrifying creatures. Big brother, when did you learn the techniques for subjugating Suiyang?"

"I learned it from books. If you read more, you'd know these things too," Ji Yuan said, glancing at his sister.

Hearing this, Sushang's twin tails immediately shook in fear.

"Then forget it, forget it. I'll just stick to practicing my swordsmanship. Leave the thinking to you and Sister Tingyun."

This struck a chord with Tingyun, and she immediately nodded, assuring Sushang, "Don't worry, I won't let anyone bully you."

"Great!"

Sushang nodded happily.

Turning to look at Huohuo, whose expression was still in pain, Sushang quickly urged Ji Yuan.

"Brother, don't wait, hurry and treat her."

"Mm," Ji Yuan nodded, then asked, "Is it okay? Or should I take you to the Alchemy Commission for treatment?"

"No, no need, it's too much trouble," Huohuo said softly, then she glanced at Ji Yuan and said shyly, "Still, still, Teacher, can you rub it for me?"

"Okay."

Ji Yuan carried Huohuo to the living room. After letting her lie down on the sofa, Ji Yuan took off her bubble socks.

Huohuo's feet were small and cute, and every detail exuded the unique innocence of the stage from loli to young girl. Her pink toes were like five small pearls, neatly arranged. The skin on the instep was as delicate as silk, and her heels were also small and exquisite, appearing even more delicate in Ji Yuan's hands.

Seeing Ji Yuan examining her small feet, Huohuo became so shy that her feet turned pink.

However, due to the cramp, she dared not move her right foot forcefully.

Ji Yuan quickly retracted his gaze and silently chanted to himself that he was not a loli-con.

He reached out and rubbed it hard.

"Ugh!"

Huohuo let out a high-pitched wail, her small face contorted in pain.

"It hurts so much! Teacher."

Ji Yuan put her foot down.

A slight sensation still lingered in his hands.

"So soft, soft and fluffy like squeezing a cake."

"Alright, Huohuo, you can get down and walk around now," Ji Yuan said to Huohuo.

At this moment, Huohuo had just recovered from the pain. Hearing Ji Yuan's words, she subconsciously placed her foot on the floor.

"Huh?" Huohuo looked puzzled.

It doesn't hurt anymore?

She stood up and moved around.

"I'm better?" Huohuo asked Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan nodded, "Mm, you're better, but don't overexert yourself. Tonight, you'll sleep with Sushang, my sister, for one night. Don't wander around."

"Mm-hmm."

Huohuo nodded shyly.

At this moment, Ji Yuan heard an exaggerated cry of "Ouch!" from the side. He turned his head and saw Tingyun clutching her ankle with a look of 'pain'.

"Ji Yuan, my ankle seems to be sprained too. Why don't you give me a massage as well."

Ji Yuan covered his forehead.

This is too fake.

Even Sushang, who was standing nearby, could tell.

Ji Yuan looked at Sushang with concern and found that she had the same expression as him, which put him at ease.

It's fine, she's just not very smart, there's still hope.

Although he knew she was faking it, Tingyun still stayed at Ji Yuan's house.

Tingyun's reason was very sound.

She had just moved in today and there were many places that needed organizing. By staying here, she could help Sushang organize.

Sushang and Tingyun went to organize the rooms, and Huohuo also went to help after resting for a while.

Ji Yuan sat on the sofa to rest.

At the same time, he began to accept the 'spoils of war' in his mind.

Huohuo was a treasure trove of a girl, and there were indeed many things to discover about her.

However, all the items she dropped were skills, so it was best not to repeat things.

Moreover, although Ji Yuan was eager to survive, he still had his morals and would never intentionally bully Huohuo.

He was still planning to cultivate Huohuo into one of the 'Ten-Lords' of the Ten-Lords Commission, thereby reaping a big harvest.

[The Chief Adjudicator of the Ten-Lords Commission suffered physical damage, which miraculously recovered after your skillful hands. Now, you are specially rewarded with [Advanced Fox-folk Massage Technique].]

Ji Yuan received the memory, and his expression instantly became speechless.

Rewarding me with this, do they want me to be a technician?

This advanced massage technique, specifically for the fox-folk race, was intended for him to use when massaging Huohuo.

It covered full-body massages, identifying comfortable spots and areas that could relax her body.

However, Huohuo was still a loli, and if Ji Yuan were to give her a full-body massage, a swarm of Cloud Knights would likely show up at his door.

"But what about Tingyun?"

Ji Yuan thought to himself.

A jumble of chaotic scenes flashed through his mind at that moment.

Shaking his head quickly, Ji Yuan put such thoughts aside.

Just then, he felt a weight on his thigh. Looking up, he saw a slender, nimble foot resting there.

Ji Yuan looked up and saw that the owner of the foot was his sister, Sushang.

"Come on, big brother, smell it. It really doesn't have any smell."

Sushang, still thinking about what had just happened, said loudly to Ji Yuan.

Hearing this, Ji Yuan immediately grabbed her calf with disgust, pushed her aside, and quickly stood up to move away.

This sister, if she's no good, I should just get rid of her.

Seeing herself tossed aside, Sushang immediately refused to accept it. She rushed towards Ji Yuan, intending to pounce on him again.

Unfortunately, as her brother of over a hundred years, Ji Yuan easily subdued Sushang.

Chapter 29: Tingyun: Yes, we stayed together last night!

Watching Huohuo, dressed as a cook with an apron on, her fluffy green hair tied into a ponytail, and wearing fuzzy slippers on her small feet, diligently cleaning, Ji Yuan couldn't help but smile.

Well, he didn't have to worry about the house cleaning for the next couple of days.

"Let's go, big brother, don't delay me from reporting." While Ji Yuan was deep in thought, Sushang grabbed his hand and pulled him outside. At the entrance of the courtyard gate, Tingyun was standing there, waving at the two of them.
