“Perfect timing! Host, you don’t want 100,000,000 star coins, nor 10,000,000 star coins. Now on sale, only 9,900,000 star coins!”

Xi Yu: “Go rob it!”

Xi Yu turned away, dismissing the tempting offer.

Constantly enticing offers.

Repair genetic defects!

“I’ll buy.”

It wasn’t just Xi Qi who needed to buy.

She needed it too.

Xi Yu’s deep gaze hinted at unknown thoughts.

“You better pray this works.”

“Host, products from the system are guaranteed to be high quality.”

Despite the mechanical tone still present, Xi Yu detected a hint of pride in it.

“Buy two.”

“Host, I’m sorry, your credit rating does not support such a large debt. You can only purchase one.”

Xi Yu was stunned.

“The item you purchased has been delivered to your space wristband. Please check.”

As expected, Xi Yu found a small cup of green liquid in her space wristband.

It looked no different from those in the Starry Empire.

But the scent had a sweet aroma.

Xi Yu hesitated a bit. However, given the current situation, it couldn’t get much worse!

She glanced at Xi Qi beside her, gritted her teeth, and poured the green liquid into Xi Qi’s mouth.

Perhaps the taste was so good, Xi Qi started to swallow on her own.

Xi Yu anxiously watched as Xi Qi transformed.

In less than ten minutes, the scars on her neck were completely healed.

The speed!

This medicine was truly tempting, but the price was intimidating!

Now, Xi Yu opened the system. A glaring negative ten million yuan debt was displayed.

Carrying Xi Qi, she found a cave and set her down.

Xi Qi woke up immediately.

With eyes like those of a deer, she looked at Xi Yu.

“Sister, is this where we will live from now on?”

Xi Yu’s eyes were sore. In this dilapidated place, Xi Qi looked so delighted.

“Little Qiqi, from now on, it will just be us.”

Xi Qi smiled and comforted Xi Yu, “This place is so nice! No one will bully Little Qiqi anymore.”

Xi Yu forced a smile.

She lifted the corners of her mouth and asked, “Are you hungry?”

The milky nutrient solution appeared murky, not appetizing at all.

Xi Yu took it out, looked at Xi Qi beside her, and asked with a smile: “Little Qiqi, are you hungry?”

Xi Qi shook her head. “Sister, I felt like someone fed me sweet nutrients in my dreams, so I’m not hungry now.”

Her soft and sweet voice carried a cuteness.

Then she pushed the nutrient solution back to Xi Yu and looked at her.

The look in her eyes said, “Sister, you drink.”

“Sister, my voice, my throat?”

She quickly touched her throat, her eyes brimming with tears.

“Sister… such a good medicine can be saved for next time.”

Xi Yu hugged Xi Qi tightly, a slight smile at the corner of her mouth.

“Little Qiqi, I promise I will never let you fall into danger.”

Xi Qi patted Xi Yu’s shoulder and spoke, “If Sister is okay, then Little Qiqi is okay. You don’t have to take care of Little Qiqi.”

Xi Yu ruffled Xi Qi’s hair and looked towards the cave entrance.

“Little Qiqi, you haven’t been sleeping well lately, right? Why not sleep a bit? Sister will guard you outside.”

Xi Qi nodded.

Then she leaned against the cave wall and fell asleep.

“System, there shouldn’t be any danger around here, right?”

“Host, I can only say this is currently the safest place you can find.”

“Can I ask what kind of system you are? Why did you choose me?”

“I am System G519 from the Great Empire, a system serving humanity, an all-purpose system. Here is a system manual that has been translated into the language of the Starry Empire.”

Suddenly, an electronic book appeared in Xi Yu’s hands. It seemed it would take a while to finish reading.

She tossed it into her space.

“How long do you think it will take me to repay this debt?”

System: “Some people in the empire may never repay such an amount in their lifetime.”

A sharp white blade suddenly appeared in Xi Yu’s hand.

“Host, what are you doing?”

In the mechanical voice of the system, Xi Yu detected a slight tremor.

Xi Yu smiled slightly, revealing bright white teeth that looked disturbingly bloodthirsty.

“I don’t know, just want to chop something.”

System: “Host, I suggest you don’t do that, as the smell of blood will attract more star beasts. You might manage to escape alone, but little host would be in danger.”

Xi Yu turned to the system. “Do you have any protective shields or something?”

“Host, please search the store.”

“Due to host’s current low credit rating, you cannot borrow too much. Host currently have only one thousand star coins left. Please use them wisely.”

Xi Yu frowned slightly and opened the system mall.

The items were dazzling, countless in variety.

[Please enter a search term]

Xi Yu clicked on the protective shield category and saw different prices. The one with cheapest price displayed various comments.

She couldn’t help but be amused.

— Only provides short protection for ten days, and its effectiveness isn’t great. A few laser hits and it’s gone.
— Cannot move! Only usable in a fixed location! Trash!

Xi Yu looked at these reviews, unable to suppress her sweat.

Is this considered trash?

A few laser hits?

With current interstellar technology, they couldn’t even withstand a single laser!

And it can’t move?

But protective shields are inherently stationary, right? Xi Yu suppressed her shock.

If she showed too much reaction, the system, which she didn’t know where it was, might laugh at her.

She glanced at the prices.

This is too cheap!!!

Such a price is unimaginable!

Only 100 star coins each.

Excited, Xi Yu prepared to begin her shopping spree, but when she reached the checkout,

She saw insufficient balance.

A bucket of cold water splashed down, and she anxiously bought one.

“100% system agency fee deducted.”

Xi Yu: “??? What is an agency fee? Why wasn’t this mentioned earlier?”

“Host, please read the system manual and usage instructions carefully.”

Xi Yu smiled slightly, revealing a bloodthirsty grin. The system felt an inexplicable chill despite having no physical form.

A 100% agency fee.

This meant that the earlier millions could actually have bought two genetic repair potions.

She could rid herself of this frail body!

Xi Yu turned to look at the sleeping Xi Qi and installed the protective shield according to the instructions and made a testing attack.

The shield even had a slight rebound effect.

So easy to use, yet so many people said it was bad!
Xi Yu took out her white sharp blade and stepped out of the cave.

The system only sensed that something was off with Xi Yu’s brainwaves.

“Host, what are you doing?” It asked, somewhat terrified.

Xi Yu smiled and replied, “Just feeling a bit uneasy, want to chop something?”

Revealing her pearly white teeth, which shimmered slightly, she looked cold and captivating.
