Everyone's all smiles on the surface but secretly cunning, but the junior sister only wants to

"Lord God, you have finally returned from the main space! Since you left, the host has been looking forward to discussing some important matters with you." The system appeared impatiently, its face full of urgency. It quickly organized its thoughts and prepared to report to the Lord God in detail on the various situations the host had experienced in the past two months.

At this moment, Jiang Moqi was gently placing Jiang Shiliu on the bed, his movements extremely careful, as if handling a rare treasure. After settling Jiang Shiliu in, he thoughtfully cast a cleansing spell on himself and the still-sleeping Jiang Shiliu, instantly sweeping away their fatigue and dust.

However, when Jiang Moqi tried to help Jiang Shiliu put down the talisman she was clutching, he was surprised to find her hands covered in wounds, the crisscrossing cuts a shocking sight. He frowned, a surge of indescribable pity welling up in his heart: "How did she get these injuries? You know, she usually hates practicing swordsmanship the most, how could her personality suddenly change like this?"

Faced with Jiang Moqi's question, the system quickly explained, "It's like this, Lord God. Since the main plot of this novel is about to begin, the host knows that if she is not as good as Su Luoluo in swordsmanship, she will be at a disadvantage. Therefore, in order not to fall behind, she has been training desperately for more than two months! Not only that, the host also hopes to do business with you. The reason is nothing more than that magnificent fireworks display you spent a lot of money to set off for her, which made her smell unlimited business opportunities."

"Okay, I understand." Jiang Moqi nodded slightly, his voice soft and gentle, like a spring breeze rippling across a lake. "Has she been having nightmares lately?"

"No, Lord God. Ever since you gave her that ring containing mysterious power and had your avatar guard it, she has never been troubled by nightmares again," the system replied respectfully. Its tone was calm and mechanical, but it could not hide its awe of Jiang Moqi.

Jiang Moqi nodded gently, a relieved smile playing on his lips. "That's good. Take this bottle of ointment and give it to her at dawn. Tell her it's a reward for her excellent completion of the mission, given to correct the plot. As for the rest, I don't need to say more; I believe you know how to phrase it." With that, he took out a small, exquisite jade bottle from his pocket and handed it to the system.

The system carefully took the jade bottle and nodded solemnly, replying, "I understand, Lord God. Please rest assured, I will handle this matter properly."

Jiang Moqi waved his hand, signaling the system to step back: "Alright, you've worked hard too. Go and rest first. Looking at how tired you are, if you don't rest soon, you'll probably complain behind my back that I, as your leader, am too strict and don't even care about my own system. You've turned yourself into that stingy and mean 'Zhou Bapi'."

Upon hearing this, the system quickly bowed and said, "Thank you for your concern, Lord God. I will take my leave now. I wish you and Miss all the best." With that, it turned and left, its figure gradually disappearing from the room. (ps: Jiang Moqi has slightly upgraded the system; it can now appear beside Jiang Moqi in a human form the size of a cotton doll.)

Jiang Moqi felt utterly exhausted, both physically and mentally. He had spent two whole months in this mysterious and dangerous forbidden land. During this time, he had hardly gotten any real rest. Every day, he was either engaged in fierce battles with the ferocious and savage monsters within the forbidden land, or racking his brains to coax the legendary ancient phoenix.

Strangely enough, this ancient phoenix, despite possessing immense power and an ancient bloodline, was ridiculously naive. Jiang Moqi discovered that with just a little thought and a few tricks, he could easily fool it, leaving it completely disoriented. Of course, most of the time, Jiang Moqi was the one who initiated the teasing of this silly phoenix, since such amusement wasn't something that could be enjoyed all the time.

In contrast, Jiang Moqi's older sister, Yan Moli, was having a much harder time. She was constantly battling various demonic beasts, relying on her exceptional combat skills and unwavering will to persevere. It wasn't that Jiang Moqi was unwilling to help; it was simply that this god had been in poor health since birth, appearing somewhat sickly.

Unlike other imposing gods who charge into battle, Jiang Moqi excels at strategizing behind the scenes. His exceptionally intelligent mind is filled with all sorts of ingenious ideas and intrigues, always able to solve problems in unexpected ways. Even when facing the most powerful enemies, he can use his cunning to set up numerous traps for them, ultimately bringing them to their deaths.

Jiang Moqi sat quietly by the bed, his eyes slightly closed, seemingly resting, but his mind was in turmoil. Time passed silently, and as a faint glimmer of light began to appear on the distant horizon, he keenly sensed something amiss—Xiao Shiliu was about to wake up. In a flash, he vanished without a trace, and the next moment he appeared in the mysterious Qiankun Pavilion that he had created himself.

The moment Jiang Moqi stepped into the Qiankun Pavilion, an unprecedented wave of exhaustion washed over him. He had been in a state of high tension and busyness for some time now, and it was indeed time for him to get some rest. Besides, with the powerful system Xiao Anzi here, he didn't need to worry about many trivial matters.

Meanwhile, Jiang Shiliu slowly woke up. The moment she opened her eyes, the terrifying experience of encountering "White Impermanence" the previous night flooded her mind like a tidal wave. Terrified, she leaped out of bed, her panicked state so intense she didn't even bother to tidy her disheveled hair, and frantically began calling out to the system: "System, tell me quickly, was that the real White Impermanence I saw last night? Why didn't you tell me beforehand that ghosts existed in this world?!"

Hearing Jiang Shiliu's panicked voice, the system quickly responded, "Host, please calm down. In fact, every world has supernatural beings like ghosts and monsters to some extent. And it should be noted that what you know is not the legendary Black and White Impermanence, that's just a name people use based on hearsay. In Fengdu City of the underworld, they are called Yin Messengers or Officials."

"Was what I saw last night really a ghost?" Jiang Shiliu's eyes widened, ignoring all other factors, only wanting to find out if she had really encountered a ghost.

Faced with Jiang Shiliu's persistent questioning, the system had no choice but to bite the bullet and lie: "Oh, of course not! It's just a little illusion on your part. Think about it, you've been training day and night to improve your swordsmanship lately, and your body and mind are exhausted, which is why you're having this hallucination. If you don't believe me, then there's nothing I can do. However, as a reward for your hard work, here's a plot correction for you. Here, take this, it's a treasure, it has miraculous effects on treating some superficial injuries."

Jiang Shili frowned slightly after hearing this, and after thinking about it carefully, she felt that what the system said seemed to make some sense. After all, she had indeed been working too hard lately, immersing herself in swordsmanship practice almost day and night. Fortunately, all the effort had been worthwhile, and through persistent efforts, her swordsmanship had made significant progress.

Now, among cultivators at the Golden Core stage, she already possesses a considerable advantage. Although she hasn't yet reached the point of overwhelming opponents of a higher level, she is more than capable of handling challenges from her peers. Especially when she thinks about how she can thoroughly humiliate Su Luoluo, Jiang Shiliu's lips can't help but curl into a smug smile.
