Chapter 1916: Chapter 1595: Talking About Rewards Hurts Feelings (Double Chapter)

“Ding! Congratulations player Skeleton, you have received a special mission to help Bloodsucker Venerable find the Life Core. Mission time is unlimited, reward is none.”

The system prompt sounded, but it didn’t surprise Su Ran. As long as the mission time is unlimited, it was enough. He planned to drag it indefinitely, as long as this Ghost Venerable could wait, then let him keep waiting!

“Undead, this Life Core is crucial for me, don’t get any crooked ideas, or I won’t let you off!”

Seeing Su Ran obediently putting away the token, Bloodsucker Venerable’s expression became much more amiable, reminding Su Ran, “Don’t hold any fluke thoughts. This token contains my cause and effect. Even if you escape to the ends of the earth, I can still find you!”

“Oh come on, this isn’t GPS… pfft, this is a more advanced Beidou Navigation!”

Su Ran felt something was wrong. The token had become a hot potato. With it, it felt like someone was watching him at all times, leaving no privacy.

However, Su Ran wouldn’t be someone so easily manipulated by fate. The first thing he did was check the attributes of the token, but seeing the words ‘Quest item is bound, cannot be dropped, cannot be traded,’ his heart turned ice cold.

Fine, let’s resign to fate.

Life is like being forcibly taken advantage of, since resistance is futile, I may as well try to enjoy it…

However.

Just as Su Ran was about to throw the token into his bladder, his eyes lit up and he directly stuffed the token into the Storage Box, curiously asking, “Ghost Venerable senior, can you still feel the presence of the token?”

“How could it not… huh?”

Bloodsucker Venerable circled around Su Ran twice, a bit uncertainly saying, “Something’s not right, you clearly put it in your crotch, why can’t I feel it at all?”

“No problem, this should be your illusion. You can try sensing it again if you don’t believe me.”

Su Ran quickly and deftly reached into his bladder to take out the token from the Storage Box. After confirming the Storage Box had a function of interfering with signals, he finally felt at ease.

“Don’t tell me, now it’s back to normal. Undead, hurry up and try to bring the Life Core back for me soon, waiting for your good news.”

After giving the task, Bloodsucker Venerable lost its presence, very self-consciously letting Su Ran go.

Upon hearing this, Su Ran couldn’t wait any longer, said his farewell, and quickly left this place. If it weren’t for Drizzling Rain still being here, he would have teleported back long ago.

“Quick, let’s go!”

Su Ran gave Drizzling Rain a look and led the way, the two quickly leaving the Sand Cave Space.

“What happened? What exactly is going on?”

Drizzling Rain was a bit dumbfounded. The plot had developed to this point, and she completely couldn’t understand it anymore. Seeing Overturning Water looking so impatient, she could only temporarily suppress all her doubts and wait to be safe before asking for clarification.

After a while, a few hundred meters away from the sand cave, Su Ran immediately threw the troublesome token into the Storage Box, completely severing his cause and effect link with Bloodsucker Venerable, and finally felt relieved.

“Overturning Water, what are you bending over and fiddling with, that posture is so unbecoming!”

Drizzling Rain was a bit embarrassed by Su Ran’s actions, quickly changing the topic, “Overturning Water, what were you muttering with those two NPCs about so softly that you didn’t even let me hear?”

“Struck a deal, I was afraid if you talked too much, it would let that Ghost Venerable figure out, wouldn’t that be bad.”

Su Ran had long thought of a strategy and smiled as he talked about the Divine Power Potion, especially the haggling part, embellishing it.

“No wonder!”

Drizzling Rain realized, “No wonder that woman destroyed the teleportation array, and the Ghost Venerable went to repair it again. I thought you wanted to release Human Emperor, but turns out this was the case!”

“Release Human Emperor? You really think. Even if my brain was filled with two tons of water, I wouldn’t release him.”

Su Ran shook his head with a smile, “As a member of the Human Race, you’d better abandon the idea of saving Human Emperor. Old Granny has become my subordinate, naturally, I have to think for her. Oh, don’t bother with the teleportation array in the sand cave either, the array stone is already in my hands. If you want to save Human Emperor, ask me first!”

“Tch, don’t try to scare me with words, if I wanted to save him, I would have acted long ago. Human Emperor is just an NPC, he’s not anyone to me, why should I save him?”

Drizzling Rain scoffed, saying indifferently, “What’s with the Human Race? I’m naturally without racial pride, games are meant to be fun, not stifling. Even if the Human Emperor dies, the Earth will still turn!”

“Miss, your thinking is quite elevated, which school did you graduate from?”

Su Ran nodded in satisfaction, this woman’s realization was so high, he didn’t need to brainwash her. This way, there was no need to worry about the Human Emperor being trapped in the Nine Nether Wasteland Ridge being spread out.

“Stop flattering me, don’t think I can’t see through you, you’re just perfunctory with me!”

Drizzling Rain had seen through this man. He had neither the heart nor the guts of a thief. Even if she took the initiative to pierce this layer of window paper, this guy would use two tons of cement to seal it, having no sense of romance at all!

“President Drizzling Rain, I’m in a rush to do tasks, so I’ll leave first. Let’s team up for tasks another time, dog love!”

After explaining things, Su Ran no longer felt like staying, directly tore up the Town Recall Scroll, and teleported away from here, leaving Drizzling Rain alone, left in a daze.

“Overturning Water, in my heart, you are the most important. Do you understand?”

Drizzling Rain gazed at the spot where Su Ran had been, sighed softly, and only then teleported back to the city.

…

Lin Yuting no longer felt like playing the game, so she logged off in the safe zone, but when she pushed open the Nutrition Cabin, she unexpectedly found her little sister sitting by her bed, looking at the ground with a worried expression and a blank look in her eyes, seemingly lost in thought, not even noticing her log off.

“Little sister, little sister!”

Lin Yuting’s brows furrowed slightly. She didn’t know why her little sister was worried. At her age, she should be carefree, right? Really strange!

“Huh? Sis… Sis, when did you log off?”

Yu Jing was brought out of her thoughts by her sister, snapped back, and hurriedly said, “Did you meet Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained in the Desert of Death?”

“Why do you care about this?”

“Me, me care? I’m angry, you didn’t take me to the dungeon, but went to the Desert of Death because of a guy. You’re ignoring your own sister, and you still dare to ask me!”

Although she said she was angry, there wasn’t the slightest angry expression on Yu Jing’s face, and her cheeks were blushing, with her eyes flickering, easily showing that she had something on her mind.

“Little sister, didn’t I ask for your permission? Why are you still bringing this up!”

Lin Yuting wasn’t focused on this issue. She nervously grabbed Yu Jing’s hand, “Little sister, tell me who’s bullying you? Is it that Su Family boy?”

“What nonsense are you talking about, no one’s bullying me, sis. Don’t overthink it.”

Yu Jing then realized she almost let it slip, quickly changing her expression and casually explained, “Isn’t it because the college entrance exam is coming, and also being in a new environment where I’m not familiar with classmates, so it’s inevitable to feel a bit troubled? Sis, don’t overthink it!”

“You sacrificed so much for him, if Sodawater doesn’t treat you well in the future, I’ll be the first not to forgive him!”

Although this explanation seemed a bit far-fetched, it at least made sense, and Lin Yuting stopped doubting, blaming Su Ran. If it weren’t for his sudden move, her little sister wouldn’t have to switch schools!

“Sis, you’re brave enough to mention me. As soon as you heard Overturning Water was in the Desert of Death, didn’t you rush right over?”

Seeing her sister no longer doubting her, Yu Jing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She curiously asked, “Sis, come on, did you see him after you went?”

“Don’t mention him, talking about him just makes me angry!”

Drizzling Rain plopped onto the bed, pouting, “I even sacrificed my looks, but it didn’t stir his heart. He’s truly a blockhead, and knotted at that!”

“No way?”

Although she said that, Yu Jing couldn’t help but feel secretly pleased in her heart about Su Ran’s behavior and couldn’t resist giving him a thumbs up in her mind.

“What’s not true about it? You don’t know, this guy directly said he was impotent, and even wants to become a monk, argh, it pisses me off!”

“Pfft, hahaha…”
