Chapter 10 You were going to die
Ruan Qi looked at the white-haired old man in confusion.
The old man flew down from the sky and landed in front of her.
He swung his wide sleeves and waved to Ruan Qi: "Little sister, Anihasayo! (Korean: Hello)"
Miss Ruan Qi: "..."
Ruan Qi stared blankly at the old man who was speaking H language to her, and suddenly closed her eyes.
"I must be dreaming."
"Well, it must be a dream."
Ruan Qi muttered to himself, then opened his eyes again.
...The old man wearing ancient clothes and speaking a foreign language is still in front of me!
Ruan Qi's little mouth slowly opened into an 'o' shape.
"Mom...I really was hallucinating because of the chamber pot!"
The old man's kind and gentle smile gradually turned to stone.
The corner of his mouth twitched.
He glared at her unhappily.
"Little girl, I'm not a chamber pot, old man!"
Ruan Qiru was in a dream: "...Mom, the chamber pot can talk!"
Old man: “…”
The old man, who had lived for who knows how many years, almost fainted from anger.
He gritted his teeth in frustration and reached out to flick Ruan Qi's head.
"You little bitch, come back to your senses! This old man is not a chamber pot! If you don't believe me, just look!"
He flipped his wrist and a white object appeared in his palm.
...It was the chamber pot that knocked Ruan Qi unconscious!
Ruan Qi stretched out his hand to grab it, but when his hand was about to touch the chamber pot, it passed through it.
This is an illusion!
"This is the phantom of my true body. Little girl, of course you can't catch it." The old man boasted proudly, "My true body is called Bai Li, and it was transformed from the essence of heaven and earth tens of thousands of years ago. Little girl, I am a spiritual weapon with very powerful functions."
"Little girl, it was an accident that I hit you today. But it was also because your fate was doomed that you were crushed to death."
"Even without me, you would have died in your sleep the day before your twentieth birthday."
"My appearance has brought your death forward. This is my fault, old man. As compensation, I have taken the initiative to bind myself to you and resurrect you."
Ruan Qi: "...So, I won't die when I'm twenty?"
"How can it be that easy?" Old Man Bai Li sneered. "Resurrecting a dying person is against the will of heaven. I almost exhausted all my spiritual energy to save you.
As long as you live, my spiritual energy will continue to be depleted. So, whether the two of us can survive now depends entirely on you."
Ruan Qi didn't say anything.
She tried to digest the overwhelming amount of information and make sense of it.
"So, the current situation is: your spiritual power may be gone at any time, and I may die at any time. If you want to survive, you have to restore your spiritual power?" she concluded.
"That's right. You're quite right." Old Man Bai Li gave her an appreciative look. "I've lived a long time and met many people, but you're the first kid to stay so calm even when he knew he was going to die."
Ruan Qi smiled modestly, while rolling her eyes in her heart.
I don't feel happy at all to receive such praise when I'm about to die.
"Then what should I do to continue living?"
"Help me increase my spiritual power." Bai Li waved his sleeves, conjured up two chairs and pulled her to sit down.
Bai Li: "I used to often visit other planes and communicate with the spiritual instruments there. Oh, by the way, the spiritual instruments in those planes are not called spiritual instruments, they are called systems. You have heard of them, right? The kind described in novels."
Ruan Qi shook his head blankly.
…She doesn’t read novels.
"...Alright." Bai Li wiped his face speechlessly. "To put it simply, what I want to say is: I'm not an ordinary spiritual weapon system, but an extremely outstanding god-level system that has been to other worlds and dimensions, and traveled through the past and the future."
"After binding with you, I researched the background of this era and came up with a method to restore spiritual power the fastest—the power of faith."
"Faith?" Ruan Qi's eyes flashed with two question marks. "So... do I need to worship you like a Buddha, burning incense three times a day?"
Bai Li: “…”
Who gave birth to this child?
What a weird train of thought!!!
"Who asked you to bow down?" Bai Li collapsed. "I wanted you to become a star in the entertainment industry!"
