"Bai Su, get some rest. You'll be busy tomorrow."

"Alright, you should rest too." Bai Su said with a smile to another maid before pushing open the door to her room.

Congratulations! Prince Yuansheng's courtyard is spacious, and maids of second rank and above all have their own rooms, though they are smaller than those of first rank.

Bai Su was very satisfied; she didn't have to work the night shift today and could get a good night's sleep.

In fact, Prince Yuansheng is very easy to serve. They don't need to keep watch at night; once he falls asleep, he sleeps soundly until dawn.

The prince has extraordinary energy, and he only sleeps three or four hours a night.

Sometimes they even work through the night.

Therefore, the people who stay overnight also work in three shifts. Just because the master doesn't need you doesn't mean you can leave your posts. If you encounter a master with a lot of energy, everyone has to cooperate with her.

Bai Su expressed his admiration, saying that all great figures are so energetic.

The people around her must also be very capable, such as the four Sister Meis, whose daily working hours are admirable, almost 24 hours a day without rest.

Anyway, she's a lazy bum, and she can't handle that kind of hardship. She's content as long as she can be a quiet and safe lazy bum and keep the live stream running normally.

Imagining the carefree and wealthy life she would enjoy upon returning home, Bai Su washed her face and body with hot water, hummed a little tune, climbed into her warm bed, said goodnight to everyone, closed her eyes, and fell asleep.

She had no idea when the live stream screen went black.

In her hazy state, she vaguely saw candlelight in her room and someone sitting at the table...

Um?

Someone's there?!

Bai Su instantly snapped back to reality, nearly fainting from fright. She scrambled to her feet, thankfully remaining cautious and refraining from screaming.

The tall, slender figure turned his head slightly, his features stunningly beautiful in the candlelight. "You're quite alert. Come here."

Bai Su thought she was hallucinating.

A prince? Huh?! Why would a prince come to my room?!

She pinched herself hard, and tears streamed down her face from the pain. Waaaaah, it wasn't a hallucination!

She was immediately terrified. Had she given herself away?

Otherwise, why, why would the prince come to see me alone?

Oh my god, save your child!

She was terrified when she faced the head of the Huiga people alone for the first time.

"Aren't you coming over here? Do I have to come and fetch you myself?" The familiar voice lowered a notch.

Bai Su immediately snapped out of her daze, rolled off the bed, and knelt down with a thud, "Your Highness..."

Her eyes darted around frantically, not daring to meet the gaze from above.

Xiao Zhixing chuckled and got straight to the point, "I've been seeing some kind of live stream lately that's been giving me a headache. I only recently confirmed that it's with you."

a bolt from the blue!

Thunderstruck!

Bai Su's soul instantly left his body.

Thunder roared in my mind.

It’s over, it’s over, it’s over——

How could the prince see the live stream?! Ahhhhh!

After a long and difficult journey, her soul finally returned to her body, only to hear the prince say, "I am not curious about who you are or where you come from, but to prevent you from slipping out of my control, you must follow me from now on."

Bai Su was completely stunned, nodding blankly.

"Oh, I am very interested in your medical skills. Since you have some expertise, then put it to use. I do not keep useless people around me."

Bai Su nodded stiffly and mechanically again, but she hadn't actually heard a word he said.

"Also, there's no need to tell those... subjects that I can see the live stream."

After everyone left, Bai Su was soaked to the bone, her legs numb from kneeling. She trembled and crawled onto the bed on all fours, pulled the blanket over her head and covered herself, crying and frantically calling for Xiao Jiu.

As a result, only one message popped up:

"Ahhh, Susu, I've been inexplicably driven away from this world. This is the last time I'll contact you. Take care. Also, I have some bad news for you. You need to accumulate a lot of merit and good fortune to successfully return to interstellar space after death. Otherwise, you might be stuck here forever."

"So, my buddy, keep going, I'll be waiting for you in space!"

Bai Su's vision went black, and she completely lost consciousness.

Xiao Zhixing: You're still a bit timid; you need more experience.

She naturally wouldn't tell her that she controlled everything in the live stream; just a gentle scare would suffice.

The more ambiguous and nonchalant she was, the more wary and fearful the girl became.

Putting Xiao Jiu's system into hibernation and getting a working donkey is still a pretty good deal for now.

From now on, we'll see how Bai Su behaves. If she doesn't behave, she'll ruin Xiao Jiu and completely cut off any possibility of her going back.

If she listens, she will naturally be allowed to return safely after her death.

See, she's actually quite soft-hearted and generous towards useful and loyal subordinates.

"Bai Feng, come back here. We're going to the Northern Frontier tomorrow." There's no time tonight; we don't have enough time.

"Alright, I'm coming back. Coincidentally, that mysterious person led Feng Mo on a roundabout way to Xia Prefecture. I guess they were probably heading to the Northern Frontier as well."

Then she definitely needs to go there. If there's a subsystem over there, it must be a different subsystem.

Then, recalling what the man in black on the celestial steps had said about the Snow Sand Valley, everything began to make sense.

Xiao Zhixing checked the time. She didn't plan to sleep tonight. Once the people who needed to settle accounts had done so, she could go to Beizhou in peace.

Not long after, she sneaked into the palace and appeared in a side hall of Feixia Palace.

Zhang Xiu did not sleep well. She woke up from a nightmare again, covered in sweat. She sat up irritably, threw back the curtains, and said angrily, "Where have you all gone? Bring me some hot tea."

In the dim candlelight, someone walked up to her and handed her a teacup.

Zhang Xiu frowned, took the tea, moistened her lips, and angrily said, "This is aged tea? You bastard—"
