Feng Xiao suddenly transformed into human form, led the bewildered Qi Yu to a place, and reached out to grab something invisible to the naked eye.

"Here."

Qi Yu reached out and touched something hard. She patted the donation box that was still struggling to move away and wiped away non-existent sweat from her forehead.

This thing...

This magical artifact becomes invisible once it has spiritual power to support its movements. It is quite intelligent, so there is little need to worry about it being caught and destroyed.

But the problem is, even she, the owner of the magical artifact, can't find where it is. How can it be retrieved later?

Qi Yu grimaced, cursing Yan Shi, who was so inconsiderate, eight hundred times in her mind.

There's nothing I can do; it's her choice to pick such an unreliable guy.

Qi Yu exhaled a breath from his nose, reluctantly opened the system shop, and painfully spent ten points to buy an item.

[Tracking you across vast distances—no matter where you are, I can find you. Only ten points required, a truly worthwhile investment!]

After attaching the prop to the invisible donation box, Qi Yu released the magic artifact, letting it search for people who met the criteria.

Qi Yu stood there for a while, watching the little red dot on the system panel keep moving as it added new data.

Besides the small red dot on the donation box, there is another small red dot on the system panel that remains stationary, quite far from the small black dot that marks Qi Yu's location.

That was the "Thousand-Mile Tracking" sticker that was attached to Yi Xiangfeng.

Although she always felt that Yi Xiangfeng had already discovered this little thing, this little red dot that had never been moved might just be a prop that Yi Xiangfeng had casually thrown into some corner.

However, Yi Xiangfeng didn't seem like an enemy, so it didn't matter.

Feng Xiao couldn't see the system panel and didn't know why Qi Yu had suddenly stopped moving, but he waited quietly in place.

Suddenly, the little red dot stopped.

Qi Yu held his breath and grabbed Feng Xiao, rushing in that direction.

No one knows how Yan Shi set it up, but the donation box flew to a dilapidated temple outside the city.

The dilapidated temple was crowded with people in tattered clothes.

After searching for a while, the donation box selected the person who looked the weakest and spat out a piece of silver.

The man seemed to be in extreme pain; his face was pale, he was panting heavily, and his eyes were half-closed, as if he were about to die.

The silver coin rolled into her arms, eliciting a surprised glance from her.

Upon discovering this shiny object, which seemed almost unreal in this dilapidated temple, she nervously grabbed the silver and stuffed it into her bosom.

She desperately suppressed the cough that threatened to burst from her throat, her eyes scanning her surroundings warily. She stepped over a group of sleeping people and ran toward the city.

Qi Yu silently followed behind the woman, watching her stumble into a clinic that was still lit up.

"Doctor! Doctor..."

At the same time, a system notification also sounded in Qi Yu's mind.

[Congratulations on successfully completing the "Do a Good Deed a Day" task! Your actions saved a woman suffering from poverty. You are awarded 10 points as encouragement!]

As soon as the mechanical notification voice finished, the system became even more human-like, and one could even say a bit speechless, voice followed.

[Host...you really do have some truly ingenious ideas...]

"Of course, don't you know who I am?"

Qi Yu accepted the system's "praise" without blushing, secretly flicked a few pieces of silver into the woman's arms, and then swaggered towards the Flying Star Sect.

"System, you're still too young. This is what they call 'when there are policies from above, there are countermeasures from below! The devil is always one step ahead of the saint!'"

system:【……】

Is this phrase still valid to use...?

Qi Yu returned to the Flying Star Sect with light and quick steps.

After entering the small thatched hut, she took out "The Chaotic Spirit Body" and waited for a while.

It was already the time she had agreed to meet with the shooting star, but the boy had not yet appeared.

Given Meteor's personality, he always arrives early when he makes an appointment with someone, and now a little while has passed, but he is still nowhere to be seen.

Qi Yu frowned, thinking of the unease that had been creeping into her heart lately, and quickly took out her communication jade talisman to send a message to Liu Xing.

No longer sitting idly waiting, she set off towards Meteor's residence.

She had only taken two steps when someone called out to her from behind.

"Senior sister! The shooting star is here."

Qi Yu turned around and looked at the undamaged meteor before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

Meteor stood on a small hill behind the thatched hut, waving shyly at her.

To Qi Yu's surprise, there was a shorter little boy standing next to Meteor.

Yun Gui, wrapped in a fox fur coat, was still pale, but he didn't look as weak as Qi Yu had seen him last time, as if he were about to ascend to heaven.

Qi Yu walked over and asked, "Master, how have you been lately?"

Yun Gui coughed a few times, still speaking in a nonchalant manner, "Not dead."

He turned and walked towards his cave, saying as he went, "Weren't you going into seclusion? This dilapidated house isn't safe. Come here instead."

Qi Yu blinked and looked at the shooting star.

Meteor pointed to the communication jade scroll in his hand, gesturing to her.

[Senior Sister, while I was waiting for you, I ran into the Sect Master and told him about my seclusion, but I didn't tell him about Master.]

I see.

The sect leader's cave dwelling must be better than hers.

After all, the last time she was in the little thatched hut, she was almost attacked.

Entering Yun Gui's cave dwelling, which was covered with a velvet carpet once again, Qi Yu found a place to sit down with ease and said, "Master, Xiu Zhu can adjust the flow of time. I plan to go into seclusion there and try to break through to the Golden Core stage before the sect competition."

Just as the weary Yun Gui was about to collapse into bed, she suddenly stopped upon hearing this.

He paused for a moment, then said, "Oh, that's a good thing."

Qi Yu looked at him and said, "Master, do you really not want to see Xiu Zhu?"

Yun Gui lay down on the bed, propping her tender face up with her right hand, and said calmly, "In my current state, if I really go in, I might just be laughed at by him. Let's just forget about it."

He had no intention of bringing up the matter again, only saying, "You can go in now, I'm going to sleep."

Qi Yu then stopped trying to persuade him and took Meteor into the "Chaotic Spirit Body".

As soon as I entered the space, the gray ball flew over and hinted, "My good disciple, you haven't forgotten what you promised your master last time, have you?"

Qi Yu understood and took out another large pile of storybooks from his storage ring.

Zhu Xiuzi swayed his body with satisfaction, a gray light flashing across his body. "Alright, now the flow of time here will be ten times slower than outside. You can begin your cultivation."

After saying that, he stopped rambling and happily immersed himself in the world of the storybook.

Qi Yu closed his eyes and sensed it for a while, but didn't find anything wrong.

Meanwhile, Meteor, whose worldview had been shattered, stared in disbelief at the stacks of storybooks that had fallen to his feet.

The book that had already covered his boots was "I Can't Stand It Anymore, I'm Running Away with the Cold and Aloof Snake Lord's Baby!" The one open on the right was "The Untold Stories Between Me and the Cunning Immortal Lord", and not far away was "Ugh! The Domineering Demon Lord Is Always Haunting Me".
