'Xiao Ba, could this Gu Die set be a defective product?' Qian Yuelong expressed deep doubt.

Even if the sun rises in the west, the main system wouldn't be that generous.

886 flatly rejected it: 【Impossible!】

[System product, absolutely top-quality! Host, you can doubt the main system's wickedness, but you absolutely cannot doubt the goods we produce!] It declared indignantly: [I guarantee with the dignity of my system that this "Gu Butterfly" set is absolutely flawless!]

Any product with defects will never appear in the system shop's catalog. We only list qualified products.

'Really? What if there are flaws?' Qian Yuelong was skeptical.

886 confidently declared: "If the set has any flaws, I'll cover the cost of the faith points you spent, okay?"

Each system has its own private treasury—system points, which can be exchanged for "currency" needed by different types of hosts.

Qian Yuelong raised an eyebrow slightly: 'Alright, you said it. I'll order it, okay?'

【point! 】

886 has absolute faith in the goods they produce.

The understated, luxurious Gothic black dress was put away in her wardrobe, replaced by clothing full of exotic flair.

It resembles a swallowtail butterfly perched on a blue petal.

The blue-purple butterfly wings formed the hem of the skirt, and the silver armbands hung down from the flowing sleeves. The butterfly and flower totem outlined in purple and gold embroidery was faintly visible among the fluttering hem of the skirt.

The Miao-style clothing, pieced together from top to bottom, exposed her lower abdomen, revealing a glimpse of her fair waist.

A strange, ethereal fragrance spread, like the scent of a poison, a blend of floral and medicinal aromas.

Qian Yuelong looked down at the Gu Butterfly Set she was wearing.

'It seems there really isn't a problem.'

886 smugly commented: "I knew it! Even if the main system is unscrupulous, it wouldn't go so far as to secretly list defective products."

[Alright, host, hurry up and transform into a butterfly to enter the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. This mere poison array won't corrode your clothes in butterfly form.]

Clothing that is inherently toxic and corrosion-resistant.

Even Shen He was moved to tears upon hearing this.

Qian Yuelong nodded and activated the passive skill "Butterfly Dream All Night".

The next second, a line of glowing red text popped up, and a cold, mechanical voice entered Yi Tong's ears:

[This skill is missing the crucial component "Crimson Flower Burial." Forcibly activating the passive effect will result in your Butterfly Transformation skill losing its wings. Confirm activation?]

Qian Yuelong: "......"

A butterfly without wings can no longer be called a butterfly; it's a reptile.

With a blank expression, she conjured two hands with her mental power, kneading and squeezing the dumbfounded 886 in her mind's eye, then gave a mocking smirk: 'This is what you meant by flawless?'

886 managed to speak with difficulty under the torment of the two energy minions: 【How can this be considered, host? Hmm... anyway, we still have over five thousand faith points... Aww! You could make another "Crimson Flower Burial," it wouldn't be a loss, it can even summon Gu butterflies... I heard Gu butterflies can both attack and poison, it's definitely a win-win situation.】

Qian Yuelong chuckled twice, coldly squeezing the useless system that only knew how to talk nonsense to her, and made handheld parts.

There will be no next time.

Current Faith Value: 4305

A bone flute, entirely purple and translucent, carved with thorns and adorned with a butterfly pendant at the end, appeared out of thin air in Qian Yuelong's hand.

The next second—

[This skill is missing the crucial component "Dawn Butterfly". If you forcibly activate the passive effect, you will transform into a regular butterfly after your transformation, lacking any poison or immunity. Are you sure you want to activate it?]

Qian Yuelong: "......"

She reiterated that the butterflies in the Gu Butterfly Swarm are not poisonous and cannot be called "Gu" at all.

She made the headdress with a blank expression, and her already meager faith points dwindled even further.

Upon reactivation, the glowing red pop-up window that sends blood pressure soaring reappears.

[This skill is missing the crucial component "Mountain Mist and Cloud Shadows". Forcibly activating the passive effect will cause the summoned swarm of butterflies to treat you as an enemy. Confirm activation?]

Silence is the essence of Qian Yuelong tonight.

A dangerous curve appeared at the corner of her lips, carrying a hint of coldness.

The mental energy materialized into a large hand, grabbing the dizzy ball of light and shaking it up and down like shaking a blanket.

'886, now, check out.'

The two black bean-like eyes of the numbered item 886 squinted like mosquito coils, and it stubbornly whimpered, "[How can this be considered a defect? ​​qAq The parts themselves are perfectly fine.]"

886. Sophistry is invalid.

Finally, under duress and enticement, he split the cost of the entire Gu Die set's faith points with Qian Yuelong 50/50.

Yes, the whole thing.

Cheap and good products, but they are sold in a bundled, knock-off style.

Current Faith Value: 4455

Having lost most of his savings, 886 became withdrawn and isolated.

It will never trust the main system again, sob sob sob.

Qian Yuelong, who got a freebie from 886, replaced all the parts.

The newly created little Gu girl from the Miao region of another world wore a crown adorned with silver ornaments and held a translucent purple bone flute. With a light tap of her feet, she once again leaped into a terrifying poison array composed of various mixed poisons.

The swallowtail butterflies, emitting a bluish-purple glow, danced gracefully in the swirling poisonous mist, rising with the mist and flying higher and higher, until finally plummeting into the heart of a secluded valley, a veritable paradise.

The damp air dampened the shimmering butterfly wings. Qian Yuelong, having broken free of her butterfly form, stepped barefoot onto the rugged ground, a faint smell of sulfur wafting through the air.

The cone-shaped pools of milky white and vermilion boldly enter the field of vision, like the yin and yang fish of Tai Chi, one yin and one yang, interdependent and mutually restraining.

Near the pool, countless rare and precious medicinal plants surround the spring, with the closer the plants are to the spring, the more exquisite they are.

Qian Yuelong did not switch back to the Assassin's outfit.

Because the poison gas wasn't just outside the valley.

The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, where various priceless medicinal plants grow, also contains toxic gases that are harmful to human soul masters and soul beasts.

Without taking any protective measures, one might easily set foot here, not only failing to take away a single medicinal plant, but also potentially perishing on the spot.

Qian Yuelong squatted down, poked the adorable, top-quality snow silkworm with her fingertip, and her eyes sparkled with admiration.

Since we're already here, it's not unreasonable to take some local specialties with us before we leave, is it?

Qian Yuelong took out a small shovel from the gold bracelet on her wrist and began sharpening it as she headed towards the medicine valley.

Star anise ice grass? Break off a bud branch.

Are the apricots, delicate and sparse, ripe for fire? All the small fruits have been picked.

A fragrant and exquisite delicacy? I've picked the flowers and fruits, just in case I need to pry up some roots.

Tulips? It's not unreasonable to dig up some roots and seeds.

......

Two hours later, Qian Yuelong, whose golden bracelet was filled with roots and seeds of rare and precious materials, left the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye with great satisfaction.

Even Yangquan and Yinquan didn't forget to temporarily make two handheld parts to take the two bottles away.

She's not some kind of devil. Harvesting herbs is unethical, but harvesting seeds and fruits is a different story.

Even if Dugu Bo returns to the valley and realizes this later, he won't care too much about those seeds that have to grow from scratch.

—A side note—

I feel much better after lying down for two days. I feel like I've never slept so well before.

The next chapter will begin with time-jumping techniques; I know you all want to see some friction.
