Chi Yanhuai pursed his lips and said softly, "You have your own ideas. I probably know what you mean without you saying it."

He squatted down and touched her cheek, pinching it a little harder. Under Tang An'an's stunned gaze, his expression was serious, "It's just that doing this is too dangerous. If you must do this, please discuss it with me first, okay?"

Tang Anan stared blankly at the young man in front of her who seemed to be glowing. Suddenly, she smiled and said in a gentle voice like a clear spring, "Okay."

"Then it's settled. You can't do dangerous things without telling me anymore, okay?" His gaze fell on her face, his deep eyes reflecting her features, serious and solemn yet with a hint of tenderness.

"I understand." Tang Anan replied obediently.

"Okay, let's go home." He took her hand and passed on the warmth of his palm, gentle and hot, just like the breath of the boy himself.

"Um."

Tang Anan listened carefully to the system's location report, a sly glint in her eyes. She was afraid she was going to disappoint her brother.

They can't go home for the time being.

-

[Since the host has bound his first soul beast, the system will unlock a new skill for you.]

"What skills?" In fact, for the current environment, the skills unlocked by the system are enough for her to use, but she will not be the only one who becomes stronger in the future, so more skills are always better, and she will never complain about having too many skills.

[Unlocked Skill: Faith]

[Faith power can be used to increase the host's own luck bonus, which is very helpful for recruiting talents, recruiting teammates, etc.]

[In addition, injecting faith power into the soul beast can nourish the spirit body and strengthen the soul beast's skills.]

"Does this mean that I don't have to get acquainted with those talented people in the future and I can still recruit them into the team smoothly? But then again, can't soul beasts just use zombie crystal cores?" Tang Anan asked doubtfully.

[That's right, Faith Power is also the host's own reputation. The higher the reputation, the more powerful the talents you recruit will be. These talents will come to you after you successfully establish a base.]

[In addition, the zombie crystal core upgrades the soul beast's level limit, slightly improving the soul beast's ability, while the faith power can strengthen the soul beast itself.]

"I understand." Tang Anan thought for a moment and asked, "What is our next mission?"

[Rescue the Deputy Mayor's long-lost daughter, Li Yingying]

"Li Yingying? What does this have to do with my goal and mission?" Could it be... developing personal connections?

Tang Anan asked the doubts in her heart, and 007 answered.

【Yes】

"Why not rescue the children of all important officials?" But where should they be temporarily placed?

007 was speechless for once at her question, "Do they have so many long-lost children?"

"Maybe, I think it's possible." Tang Anan's face showed 'It must be possible!'

[Even if there is, it is not important. Li Yingying's identity is different from theirs.] 007 couldn't help but correct her.

"Is there a difference between legitimate and illegitimate children?" Tang An'an's expression became more vivid with curiosity, causing Chi Yanhuai to repeatedly cast puzzled glances at her.

Tang Anan blinked obediently and looked back at him innocently, "Brother, what's wrong?"

"It's okay." Chi Yanhuai retracted his gaze and looked forward.

[In short, you don't have much time left. You need to find her and settle her down as soon as possible.]

"no problem."

Tang Anan stopped and Chi Yanhuai, who was pulling her towards the back door, asked softly, "What's wrong?"
