CHAPTER 169: NEW LEVEL UNLOCKED

Ruan Chanchan didn’t know the trails leading in and out of the mountains. There was a very good chance that if she went up the trail, which she was unaware of, she might never return. Because while the treasure hunting map did show her a way up the mountains, it didn’t show her a way down, and this – well, it did put a small, teeny, tiny obstacle in her path. Ruan Chanchan didn’t fancy getting lost in the middle of the wild, so bringing Xie Daiyu with her was a perfect plan for her. For the time being, at least.

Anyway, for some reason, Xie Daiyu cared about her a lot, so she could leave her back with him.

"Sure," Xie Daiyu now believed in Ruan Chanchan and was very curious about what kind of new food she might find. It would be nice if they could get more of the mushrooms and eggs, as he didn’t want Ruan Chanchan to push herself. The beast goddess took her blood in exchange for salt. He wondered if Ruan Chanchan had to give something in exchange for the instant noodles as well.

Ruan Chanchan was overjoyed when she saw that the mer had agreed. She patted him on the shoulder and said to him, "Let’s go; I will bring the wicker basket, and we can go to the mountains. The sooner the better." Maybe if she found something good, then she would be able to sell it in the supermarket. Who knows, maybe she might find something good?

Then, without waiting for the mer to respond, she turned around on her feet and headed to her cave.

"Today is a really good day." Ruan Chanchan was really happy when she saw the goodwill points that were being accumulated. Earlier, she was thinking that it was really hard for her to accumulate points, but now, she had a feeling that it was not that difficult!

That’s right, darling. As long as you work hard, collecting points will become a piece of cake for you,

though Xiao Xi knew that it was not that simple. He pursed his lips and sent a small apology to Ruan Chanchan because he knew that he was lying. In the future, collecting the goodwill points would only get harder.

[Ding.]

[You have collected 50,000 goodwill points.]

[Congratulations on unlocking 71,290 points. Would you like to open the next level of the supermarket?]

Of course!

Ruan Chanchan had been waiting for this for a long time. She immediately agreed with the notifications to unlock the second level of the supermarket.

As soon as Ruan Chanchan unlocked the second level of the supermarket, the space around her changed, and she found herself standing in the middle of a gigantic floor that resembled a shopping mall. With a white marble floor and luminous lighting all over the ceiling. Her eyes lit up, and she turned to look at the many shelves that were in front of her. From salt, sugar, flour, rice and dried beans to soap, matches and simple knives, everything was cleanly placed on the countless shelves that were in front of her.

Although there was no soy sauce or anything, Ruan Chanchan was not going to complain. At least she had shiny, glutinous rice! Her precious rice.

Ruan Chanchan walked over and reached out to pick up the sack of rice.

"Oh my dear, how I have missed you." Ruan Chanchan hugged the rice sack and sobbed silently. Honestly, she was getting really tired of eating meat and meat and meat every day. Now that she had rice, she would be able to make a few more dishes.

She then looked at the soap that was lined on the other shelves and almost burst into tears. These soaps! She never imagined that one day she would miss having soaps as much as she did now. Finally, her long wait was over, and she could take a nice, relaxing bath.

Ruan Chanchan was overjoyed with this sudden, unexpected reward. After all, the supermarket’s rewards were completely random. There was no control over these rewards. Thus, how could Ruan Chanchan not be happy?

Not only did she happily accept the reward, but she also placed the soaps on sale in the supermarket system for people from other dimensions to purchase.

Once she was done taking a look around the new level, she returned to the cave and picked up the wicker basket. With the wicker basket on her shoulders, she turned around on her feet and patted her butt before heading out of the cave.

When Xie Daiyu saw Ruan Chanchan walking over, he noticed that she looked quite happy.

Did something happen when she returned to her cave? Xie Daiyu thought. Though he was curious, he didn’t ask Ruan Chanchan anything. Instead, when she came to a stop in front of him, he smiled at her softly and questioned, "Are you ready?"

"Yeah."

Upon hearing her response, Xie Daiyu didn’t even bat an eye and turned into his beast form. He shook his brown fur and crouched down enough for Ruan Chanchan to climb up on his back. Ruan Chanchan was now used to climbing up and down the back of the brown bear; she calmly climbed up and sat down on his back.

Xie Daiyu glanced at the woman who was sitting on his back. Once he was sure that she was sitting securely on his back, he turned around and started marching up the mountains. "Hold on tight; the trail is quite rocky." Xie Daiyu relayed when he saw that Ruan Chanchan wasn’t holding him. "You can fall down if you are not careful."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ruan Chanchan reached out and curled her arms around his neck and tightened her hold on him. She was worried that she would really roll off his back and fall to her death.

While she was worried about her death, she had no idea that the sly bear was smirking in delight.
