Reminded by Jia Xitong, Shang Yanting recalled what happened yesterday.

Something unknown was currently swirling in his mind. He frowned slightly. "Your purpose?"

Upon hearing the male protagonist's question, she had already prepared her response.

"Hello, host. I am the system, from a higher plane. My mission is to help you level up and become the supreme god of the Aotian Continent."

It's the same old excuse again.

Unfortunately, Shang Yanting never believed in free lunches. "What do you want from me?"

"The system will be upgraded based on your progress."

Jia Xitong tried her best to imitate the tone of the Savior System and said to him, "If the host has any doubts, we can sign a contract in the name of the God of Martial Arts."

Upon hearing this, Shang Yanting pondered for a moment, and amidst Jia Xitong's anxious waiting, agreed, "Okay."

——

To be honest, compared to Shang Yanting's concern that Jia Xitong might have ulterior motives, Jia Xitong was more afraid that he might take her life at the slightest provocation.

Verbal agreements are unreliable; a signed contract is much better.

The setting sun shone on Shang Yanting's pale face.

In his mind, Jia Xitong, with a rigorous attitude, intervened and provided technical guidance on the traditional contracts of the Aotian Continent. Several hours later, an equal contract, which took into account various unforeseen circumstances and background information, was completed from a few dozen words to several thousand words under the witness of the God of Martial Arts.

The bond has been formed successfully!

At the same time, Jia Xitong heard the pleasant voice of the Savior System.

[Congratulations to the mission participant for gaining 60 trust points from the male lead. Current trust points: 60/100]

[Soul cultivation unlocked; the quest participant can use their soul to study the "Book of Records" within their sea of ​​consciousness.]

Two pieces of good news in a row!

If she were a physical being, Jia Xitong would be absolutely radiant right now.

In contrast to Jia Xitong's smugness, the male protagonist, hailed as a once-in-a-century genius, had vacant eyes and unsteady steps. He slowly moved to the entrance of the cave where he was hiding, and only the cold wind hitting his face managed to keep him barely awake.

Is that really a traditional contract?

It feels like the wound on my chest that had healed has reopened.

##

As a reader, you may not believe in the protagonist's character, but you must believe in his healing ability.

After spending two days in the wilderness, the male protagonist's injuries were almost completely healed.

Having evaded his pursuers, Shang Yanting finally returned to the city lord's mansion unharmed.

Upon seeing the gilded characters "Shang Mou" on the city lord's mansion, Jia Xitong, a fan of the original novel, instantly understood the timeline—

The original story begins after the male protagonist has had his innate talent destroyed and been expelled from his family. Shang Yanting is currently still the young master of the Shangmou family, so this should be before the beginning of the novel.

At this time, the Shangmou family was still the head of the eight great families. As the young master, Shang Yanting was at the center of the power struggle, so it was only natural that he would be assassinated.

Now that news of Shang Yanting's return has spread, all the forces that were still plotting have backed down, fearing his ruthless methods. His subordinates have been dispatched to investigate, and the assassins remaining in the mountains and forests have either been eliminated by their masters or captured and tortured.

...

Day 3 of creating the fake system.

Jia Xitong felt a little embarrassed in front of the steamy bath.

The steam from the hot spring obscured her senses, but it couldn't obscure her memories. In the novel's plot, Shang Yanting had sex with multiple women in one night, and there were palace secrets...

It's all the author's fault for describing things in such a sensual way.

Who would have thought that beneath such a serious and aloof exterior, the male protagonist was actually so dissolute?

The missionary tasked with saving the world in the future keeps looking down with an ultra-wide-angle lens, trying to see something through the swirling smoke.

Then, she saw...

Mosaic?

What is that?

A censorship mode has been designed for task participants.

The sudden appearance of the Savior System left Jia Xitong speechless. "Dear System, you should be more generous to your host."

As those tasked with saving the world, we should possess integrity, courage, and kindness.

joke!

She just wanted to verify whether the male lead was exceptionally talented, and how he could be considered dishonest, brave, and kind.

Whether he's upright or not, I don't know, but the male lead suddenly felt a bit cold.

He quickly put on his undergarments and strode out, still damp with moisture. The silk clung to his back, outlining the taut contours of his muscles. In the candlelight, his face seemed to be bathed in light, the lines of his features possessing an aloof and exquisite beauty.

She hadn't paid much attention to the male lead's appearance before because he was so down on his luck. But now, looking closely, he truly deserves to be called the most handsome character in the original work.

Unfortunately, being handsome can't put food on the table.

Jia Xitong sat in Shang Yanting's sea of ​​consciousness and took out the book "The Register".

"Dear host, your first task is as follows: Collect 1000 sheets of cinnabar red paper, 5 taels of rock graphite, and 2 writing brushes."

Quest completion reward: 1 "Migration Talisman"

As the saying goes, a new president makes three bold moves upon taking office, and she's been holding back these moves for several days now.

Upon hearing the voice, Shang Yanting looked up from a book titled "The Record of Treasures of the Five Continents" and asked, "What do you need these for?"

"Since I'm part of the system, I definitely have to do tasks."

Jia Xitong answered confidently, "Humans should mind their own business when it comes to system matters!"

——

On the continent of Aotian, everyone values ​​martial arts, resulting in low productivity. Items used by cultured people, such as cinnabar paper and rock ink, are extremely expensive.

Her asking price was equivalent to half a year's expenses for an ordinary family. However, as the lord of a city, the Shang family was not exactly a rare breed.

Shang Yanting waved her hand and had it delivered, and it was all the best quality; the cinnabar paper and rock ink were more than she had requested.
