Many descendants

Xiao Mei seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said to Su Yan: [Reporting to the host, a rebirth card is needed.]

Su Yan was stunned. [A rebirth card?]

Xiao Mei opened the system store for Su Yan to see: "Host, take a look at the system store. There's an item on the last page."

Su Yan flipped to the last page. What was originally only 10 pages of products had now grown to a whopping 109 pages!

Page 109 contains only one product description: 【Rebirth Card – Limited to Reborn Beast Husbands Only.】

The condition is 10,010,010,000. This is more than the points needed to fulfill one's wish!

Su Yan checked her current points: 4,087,492,100.

We are still short 5,922,517,900!

"Can I owe points?" Su Yan asked Xiao Mei.

Xiao Mei replied: "At the host's current level, the maximum debt is 50 billion!"

[Then I need to earn another billion points... Are there any tasks?]

[Yes! The highest-ranking mission score is currently 58 billion! Kill the Insect Virus System.]

Are the Zerg still alive?

[Just like viruses in the human body, there are millions of them.]

[Accept! But before starting the mission, I need to find out who killed Zulu!]

The killer's black clothing completely blocked the system's data scanning, and they likely escaped through a spatial rift, meaning they could have gone anywhere.

Let me watch that video again.

【Good host. 】

Su Yan watched it frame by frame from beginning to end!

Finally, when Zulu killed the giant python, the man in black had already appeared, hiding behind a patch of tall grass and trees.

He teleported behind Zulu only after Zulu began to deal with the giant python's body.

He was tall and thin. Xiaomei accurately measured his height based on the height of the bushes, estimating it to be 1.935 meters, with footprints measuring size 46. However, the black cloak and hood were inflated, so his exact height should only be used as a reference.

"What are the other beastmen doing now?" Su Yan asked Xiao Mei calmly.

Xiao Mei replied: "Yu Hao is currently breaking the divine seal on the treasure vault inside the Dragon Tomb, intending to retrieve its treasures. Qing Linghuan is guarding outside the Dragon Tomb, presumably preparing to ambush Yu Hao. Neither of them has any motive to kill Zulu. Yu Hao currently has no opportunity to descend to the mortal realm, and even with a teleportation portal, Qing Linghuan couldn't pinpoint his location so accurately. Furthermore, Qing Linghuan doesn't even know Zulu."

[Hmm, where are the others?] Su Yan wrote eleven names on the ground and crossed out two.

Pei Xuan doesn't possess spatial mysteries. Zong Sili does, but he's currently teaching a class, and Grape and Xiao Qi are also in class, so he can't be there in person.

Where are Yuxuan, Shishi, and Faser?

They were also there, and showed no unusual reaction.

【Hmm.】 Su Yan crossed out two more names.

[Ming Linyuan is on the Dark Continent, and the day to pay his magic crystals is approaching. He's currently busy collecting them. Also, he doesn't possess spatial mysteries; even if he did, he's only at the late-stage Spirit Rank and can't tear through space.]

You mean tearing through space has limitations based on talent?

Yes, even with spatial talent, one needs to reach the Saint rank to tear through space. But to walk within it without fear of the turbulent currents and blades, one must at least be at the peak of the Saint rank, near-god level, or possess a protective artifact.

Qin Mo is currently hosting a four-nation conference; he also lacks talent.

He goes without saying.

Yes, Zhu Sanlang is currently in seclusion. He should emerge as a god-level being. He will not appear anywhere for the time being.

[Fal is out fishing at sea with his four children. Little Nine is pushed into the water by Little Ten, but because he's too fat, he floats on the surface and is not in danger.]

【…】

[Ziqi is taking a bath alone in Linhai Garden.]

When did he arrive at Linhaiyuan?

[We need to see him in person to trace what he did before. But did Ziqi have a motive to kill Zulu?]

Su Yan rubbed her forehead. "I really wasn't confident that his feelings for me would make him so jealous as to kill Zulu."

[Wen Jin is currently in the Asura Realm; only by seeing him in person can we trace back time.]

[Did Wen Jin have a motive to kill Zulu?] Su Yan looked at the names on the ground. Besides the eight that were crossed out, Zi Qi was circled, Wen Jin was also circled, and the last one was Rong Ruo…

What about Rong Ruo?

[Rong Ruo...] Xiao Mei paused.

"Could it be him?" Su Yan was shocked! Having eliminated all doubts, what remained was the truth, no matter how unbelievable it seemed.

Xiao Mei replied: "Rong Ruo is getting married."

Su Yan's thoughts went blank for a moment.

【marriage?】

Yes, the bride is a princess of the Deep Sea Black Dragon Clan.

"...Hmm, that's good. Since he didn't send me an invitation, I won't wish him well." Su Yan crossed out Rong Ruo's name, making a particularly forceful mark.

"Who else does the host need to investigate?" Xiao Mei asked.

Even if Zulu had enemies in the West District, it was impossible for him to have chased them all the way to the East District, especially given his Saint-level cultivation. Su Yan's gaze lingered on the two circled names.

"No matter who the murderer is, I will resurrect Zulu." Su Yan stood up. "Let's go see Zi Qi."

[Yes, host. 】

Before leaving, Su Yan collected all the blue-gray rabbit fur on the ground and put it into a treasure box.

Finally, they checked the clues on the ground one last time to see if there were any overlooked traces.

However, with Xiaomei's data scanning capabilities, not only on the ground, but even in the air, the slightest difference in scent can be clearly detected, even by mosquitoes.

Su Yan also collected the giant python's corpse.

……

Linhaiyuan.

When Ziqi came out of the hot spring, she found Su Yan standing by the pool with a cold and serious expression, which made her heart skip a beat.

"Yan Yan?"

[Host, Ziqi came here to bathe after leaving Wanfang Inn and hasn't left since.]

【Um. 】

Su Yan turned around and teleported away.

Killing Zulu is certainly not Ziqi's style. Even if he really wanted to kill him, he would use someone else to do it, so as not to get his hands dirty with blood.

Using someone else to do the dirty work? Wait a minute!

Where is Yu Yan?

Yu Yan has just broken through to the Saint Rank and is currently in seclusion to consolidate his cultivation.

[Saint Rank!] Su Yan frowned. She now saw everyone as a suspect and couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Su Yan came and left without a word, her expression icy, which puzzled Zi Qi, but she knew something must have happened.

He immediately returned to the palace.

Su Yan arrived at the Divine Beast Academy.

Zulu's death was shrouded in mystery. Who would harm such a kind, upright, and honest man?

【Xiao Mei, it's not that I'm being petty, but could it be that the system is trying to deduct my points?】 She had just glanced at it and found that Xiao Mei's upgrade points were already zero.

Xiao Mei replied: "No, host. You have completed all tasks 100%, and the main system is very satisfied with you. Moreover, your points are like a drop in the ocean to the main system."

[…Where did your points go?]

[Xiao Mei used all her childbirth points to upgrade the system shop. Xiao Mei remembered that the system shop had a resurrection card for reviving beast husbands. Luckily, the host was fortunate; after ten upgrades, she managed to get the resurrection card.]

[Is this good luck? If you're lucky, you should have gotten it on the first try.] Su Yan felt that she was just unlucky, and even dragged Zulu down with her.

If he hadn't come looking for her, would the danger have been avoided...?
