The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

In the real world, as soon as Xu Yiyu opened his eyes, the occasional palpitations in his chest seemed to have lost the power to restrain him. The overwhelming pain instantly filled his entire heart, and Xu Yiyu subconsciously bent over in pain.

In order not to worry his companions in the treasure hunting team, Xu Yiyu pretended to bend down to tie his shoelaces, quietly put his left knee against his chest, lowered his head to hide the expression on his face, and silently adjusted his state.

She couldn't see what she looked like now, but she could guess that her expression wasn't very good. If she looked up and talked to her companions before adjusting herself, her expression would definitely betray herself.

Xu Cheng originally thought that her sister was just tying her shoelaces, so she didn't pay much attention to it. But after nearly a minute, when she turned her gaze over here again, she didn't see Xu Yiyu stand up.

She turned her gaze in the direction of Xu Yiyu again and found that although Xu Yiyu was squatting and her expression could not be seen clearly, her whole body was trembling slightly, as if she was enduring something.

She also noticed something at that moment, and then squatted down silently and quietly approached Xu Yiyu.

"… Honka, are you okay?"

As they got closer, Xu Cheng could also see a little of the hidden expression of this cousin sister from the side. When he found that even her long, thick, black eyelashes were trembling, he couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

After adjusting for a while, the severe palpitations in Xu Yiyu's heart finally eased a little. She turned her head slightly to look at Xu Cheng and forced a smile.

"To be honest, it's not very good."

Noticing that Jiu was discussing with several members of the Jingda group about how to get closer to the mountain, Xu Cheng simply pulled Xu Yiyu aside while everyone was busy and carefully questioned her about her situation.

Xu Yiyu raised his head and glanced at the mountain that was very close to him, with a sense of loss that he could not suppress in his eyes.

"After we set off, please ask your son to pay more attention to the situation. My son has just triggered the conditions for an update and upgrade. From now on, he will not be able to respond to anything I say for 12 hours."

Xu Yiyu explained the situation calmly, but when Xu Cheng heard it, he was shocked beyond words.

She didn't dare to waste time, and called her own system in her mind to confirm the situation of the chosen system on her side.

"Host, I really can't contact the Chosen System right now. It lost its connection with other systems during the upgrade and can't make any response."

The Class B wealth system that Xu Cheng was bound to tried several times using the unique communication channels between systems, and when it came to this regrettable conclusion, it chose to inform its host immediately.

Although it doesn't understand why the Chosen One, who already has an S-level system, would update and upgrade at this time, their system update process is irreversible and uninterruptible, so it can only wait patiently for the version update to be completed.

After hearing the answer from his own system, Xu Cheng also understood the cause of the abnormality in his family just now. He lowered his head and pondered for a while, then spoke to Xu Yiyu again.

"Updating is a good thing. A system as powerful as your Tongzi will definitely be of more comprehensive help to you after the update. It has helped you optimize and improve so many properties in the past two months. It is certainly enough for you to survive these 12 hours with ease."

Xu Yiyu listened to the encouragement from his cousin Xu Cheng, closed his eyes, took several deep breaths, and then opened his eyes.

What Chengzi said was right. At this moment, she must absolutely believe in the saying "System products must be high-quality". Relying on the golden finger that Tongzi has given her during this period of time, she will confidently and cautiously proceed to the next step of this mission, and will not delay her work while waiting for Tongzi to finish updating.

Only four or five meters away from the two Ms. Xu, Tan Taihong had been squinting her eyes and observing the two sisters for a long time. She found that they had been communicating in voices that she could not hear, and she really could not guess what they were talking about.

However, she noticed that Sister Yi Yu's condition was not right just now, but after Sister Chengzi spoke to her for a few words, Sister Yi Yu's expression became obviously much brighter than before.

How should I put it? Although she was very curious about the secrets of her two sisters, she still chose to respect them.

Tianlin, who had been patrolling on both sides of the team, also noticed that something was wrong with the host's family. After calling for the chosen one in vain, he also understood why Miss Yiyu was in an abnormal state.

He walked over to Xu Yiyu with a normal expression and spoke to her in a very low voice.

"Don't worry, Miss Yi Yu, I'm still here."

Xu Yiyu turned his head, looked at Tianlin who came to comfort him with gratitude, and smiled at him slightly.

The violent palpitations just now were like a gust of wind that came and went without a trace, and were finally covered by the warmth that spread from the bottom of my heart to my whole body, disappearing as quickly as a nightmare that was quickly strangled in the bud.

Xu Yiyu adjusted his state, and Jiu and the five-member group from Jingda reached a consensus. After the two sides looked at each other and nodded to each other, Minghong and Jiu walked towards Xu Yiyu who was standing not far away.

For an unknown reason, Xu Yiyu's eyes involuntarily drifted to Jiu's left leg, which seemed to have difficulty walking. The eyelid of his right eye twitched a few times as if giving some sign.

Ever since she unlocked the luck value attribute, Xu's premonitions have never been wrong.

There is a 99% chance that the dangers and traps that everyone will face next are set for Jiu, who is returning to his old place.

"Ms. Xu, I just asked Mr. Jiu, and he said that the entrance he discovered when he came here last time was located at the foot of the mountain."

When Minghong informed Xu Yiyu of the situation, he also noticed her hesitant look. After turning back to observe Jiu's current expression, he continued speaking.

"But when he was rescued by Master Gu, the entrance was covered by rocks. If we still need to go through that entrance now, we must consider whether we can break open the tightly sealed cave with our combined strength."

As Minghong spoke, he looked at the five members of the practical team who were well equipped with tools, as if asking with his eyes about the specific feasibility.

Jiu had already prepared himself mentally in advance, so there was nothing unnatural about his expression at this moment.

"We have to look at the specific situation on site first to see if we can solve this problem in the most efficient way."

Qi He exchanged glances with the other four members of the practical group and answered the question very cautiously.

"Okay, Mr. Jiu will still be at the head of the team to guide the direction. Let's go to the scene to see the specific situation before making a decision."

Xu Yiyu, whose condition had fully recovered, did not continue to be trapped in his emotions. He simply nodded to Jiu who was standing at the head of the team, indicating that he still had to rely on him for the next step.

Tian Lin, who had the best eyesight in the treasure hunting team, glanced in the direction that Jiu pointed. His expression suddenly became complicated. He quickly glanced with sympathy at Jiu, who did not show any obvious negative emotions.

He came up behind Xu Yiyu and said a few words in a voice that only the host could hear. Xu Yiyu looked back at Tianlin in surprise, as if to confirm the truthfulness of what he had just said.

After Tianlin nodded at her with a very affirmative look, Xu Yiyu's gaze involuntarily drifted towards Jiu.

Her premonition was correct. From what Tianlin had just told her, she knew that the two traps their large group was about to encounter were set up against Jiu, who was coming here for the second time.

When he thought about who was the person who had made the arrangements in advance, Xu Yiyu's brows began to turn cold uncontrollably.

If it was a head-on confrontation, Xu Yiyu was not afraid of that man and his men targeting her, because she was confident that she could easily resolve it with her own abilities.

But she still underestimated how vicious that man was. She didn't expect that he would try to break through Jiu's psychological defenses in this way.

Thinking about how he held back because of his manners when they fought last time, Xu Yiyu couldn't help but feel truly regretful.

If she had known this would happen, she should have given him a more severe lesson.
