I Declare the System My Real Big Brother

Chapter 7: I Declare the System My Real Big Brother

"Senior Brother, are you really not going to eat it?"

Seeing how adorable she looked, Chen Yao could not bear to make his Junior Sister sad. He quickly took the Qi Nurturing Pill she had been holding up all this time and swallowed it.

Although the Qi Nurturing Pill was useless to him, useless was useless—eating one did not matter.

"It's okay, Junior Sister. Look, I've already eaten it. The Qi Nurturing Pill you gave me is delicious."

[Congratulations, task completed: Reward—one drop of Earth Divine Ape Essence Blood, delivered!]

[Refining Earth Divine Ape Essence Blood can strengthen the physical body. The host has already cultivated the Supreme Heavenly Demon, so increasing cultivation can be delayed for now.]

[Prioritize strengthening the body first, so you can better withstand lightning tribulations.]

Jiang Wan immediately beamed with joy. Wonderful! She currently had five-element trash spiritual roots, meaning all five of her spiritual roots had uneven aptitude. Once she made up for all five, would that not make them Chaos Spiritual Roots?

Suddenly, she thought of a question.

"System, are there any spirit stone rewards?"

[Yes. Please look forward to subsequent tasks.]

She gave Senior Brother Chen Yao a huge smile.

"Senior Brother Chen Yao, you're so nice!"

Chen Yao smiled and took out a bottle of high-grade Qi Nurturing Pills, along with a protective jade talisman, and gave them to her.

"This is my greeting gift for our first meeting, Junior Sister."

She needed the protective jade talisman.

She immediately accepted the jade talisman and thanked him, making Jiang Yao, who stood nearby, nearly bite her back teeth to pieces.

She silently comforted herself. It had to be because she was still too young. Once she grew up, Senior Brother Chen Yao would know who was good and who was bad.

Her eyes suddenly darted about, and she lifted her little face to look at Chen Yao.

"Senior Brother Chen Yao, I want to go to the Immortal Peach Garden and pick peaches for my little sister. She has never eaten immortal peaches before!"

As Jiang Yao spoke, she turned to look at Leng Feng and Fairy Xueyun. The two immediately nodded when they heard this.

Fairy Xueyun was very gratified. She hoped the two little girls would grow up close together, rather than with swords drawn and bows bent.

Thinking of Madam Li, who had stirred up discord between the two little girls, filled her with disgust. Let her stay on Meditation Cliff!

"Alright, let Senior Brother Chen Yao take you there. Be careful."

Chen Yao had entered the Foundation Establishment Realm. Logically speaking, his cultivation should not have allowed him to ride a sword within the sect, but his status allowed him to fly on a sword within the sect.

The young man carried the two little girls onto the flying sword, one on each side, then flew them to the Immortal Peach Garden.

It was truly Jiang Wan's first time riding a flying sword, and it was terrifying. She clung directly to Chen Yao's calf and refused to let go.

Chen Yao stood on the flying sword with both legs hugged by the two little girls, unable to help but laugh.

"Don't worry. I won't let you fall!"

They arrived at the Immortal Peach Garden in no more than a moment.

[Back then, you destroyed the entire Myriad Talisman Sect. Not a single Spirit-Infused Immortal Peach tree within it remained; all were burned to ash. Travel across the Myriad Worlds to find one Spirit-Infused Immortal Peach of the same variety as those on the back mountain of the Myriad Talisman Sect, and give it to your father to heal the old injury you inflicted upon him.]

[Task difficulty: Supreme]

[Task reward: Talisman Dao Comprehension x10.]

Jiang Wan looked at the peach grove before her. To be fair, when the System needed to be blind, it was truly blind.

Chen Yao brought the two little bean sprouts steadily to the ground.

He looked at them, one on each side, with amusement.

"Alright, we're already on the ground. Could I still make you fall?

Come down quickly. I'll take you to pick peaches."

Jiang Yao walked over to Jiang Wan and took her hand.

"Wanwan, I know where there are big, delicious Spirit Peaches. I'll take you to pick them!"

Chen Yao watched the two children with a smile on his lips. They had only barely completed Qi Induction and were not even as tall as the peach trees, yet they wanted to pick peaches.

"You two can't reach them. Tell me which ones you want, and I'll pick them for you!"

Jiang Wan no longer regarded Jiang Yao as an innocent three-year-old girl.

She directly shook off her hand.

"No, I want Senior Brother Chen Yao to help me pick peaches."

Jiang Wan ran up to Senior Brother Chen Yao on her short little legs and tilted her head up at him.

"Senior Brother, carry me so I can pick peaches."

The little girl Jiang Yao's face completely darkened.

Chen Yao smiled, revealing a little canine tooth. He reached beneath Jiang Wan's arms and lifted her high.

Jiang Yao had a Storage Ring, while she had a Storage Bag. She hung the Storage Bag around her neck, then used both little hands to twist off peaches almost as big as her head.

One twist, one peach. One twist, one peach. Jiang Wan: Hehe.

Jiang Yao: Not hehe.

"Senior Brother Chen Yao, I want to pick peaches too."

Chen Yao answered.

"Alright. Once she finishes picking this one, I'll take you to pick peaches."

After Jiang Wan picked the peach in her hands, Chen Yao set her down.

"Senior Brother Chen Yao, can you put me on the peach tree? I promise I won't fall."

Chen Yao truly did not dare put her on the peach tree.

"That won't do. What if you accidentally fall?"

Chen Yao set her down, then lifted Jiang Yao to start picking peaches.

Jiang Yao pointed into the distance.

"Senior Brother, I want to pick from that peach tree."

As Jiang Wan watched them walk farther away, she shuffled sideways, one step, then another, then another.

As she shuffled, she left Chen Yao's line of sight. But she had forgotten that in the novels she had read before, after reaching the Qi Refining Third Layer, as spiritual power was released outward, divine sense could be released as well.

To prevent anything from happening to her, Chen Yao's divine sense had been watching this side the entire time.

Seeing her shuffle sideways with such a sneaky air, Chen Yao held back his laughter, though the corners of his lips simply would not stay down.

He even cooperatively walked farther away, wanting to see what exactly the little girl was going to do.

What could Jiang Wan do? She merely wanted to complete her task.

The System told her to pick peaches, so she would pick peaches.

But so she could pick more at once, she found a peach tree, climbed it, and picked them herself.

So she only wanted to climb a tree and pick peaches. Chen Yao let out a breath of relief.

The facts proved that he had relaxed too soon.

After picking more than a dozen peaches, Jiang Wan slid down from the peach tree, wandered around the peach grove, then found another peach tree and climbed up. After picking a peach, she began eating it herself.

With a peach bigger than her head, who could resist taking a bite?

His divine sense saw her eating a peach. Chen Yao smiled, feeling even more reassured.

Jiang Wan was full after eating half a peach.

By now, Jiang Yao had deliberately pestered Chen Yao into going far away. Jiang Wan simply sat on the peach tree and began fusing the Earth Divine Ape Essence Blood.

The fusion process hurt a little.

[Detected that the host fears pain. Pain-blocking function activated.]

Jiang Wan: System Bro, really, you've moved me to tears.

I declare that from now on, the System is my real big brother.

Time passed bit by bit. Baby Jiang Wan looked as if she had fallen asleep in the tree, peaceful and serene.

When she opened her eyes again, heaven and earth had dimmed in splendor.

"So it's evening already. Looks like I slept for a long time. Huh, did Jiang Yao lure Senior Brother Chen Yao away?"

In any case, she looked around and did not see anyone, so she continued eating the half-finished peach.

She kept picking peaches. She had already picked so many—why had the System still not reminded her that the task was complete? It seemed she had to give them to daddy.

Jiang Wan slid down from the peach tree and walked beneath a peach tree still laden with many peaches. Who knew what she was thinking, but she reached out, hugged the trunk, and pulled with all her strength.

Then she pulled that ten-meter-tall peach tree—out, of, the, ground!

Even she was stunned by her own strength. As expected of the Great Earth Divine Ape's bloodline—it was incredible!

She carried the peach tree for two steps. At a glance, it looked as though the peach tree itself were walking.

Fortunately, she put the peach tree into her Storage Bag, avoiding too great a commotion.
