"Xiao Qi, how much longer can this body live?"
"...no more than a week."
"Okay, I understand."
Yunqi returned to her body, slowly opened her eyes, and gently touched Su Yi.
"Qiqi! You're awake?!" Su Yi looked at Yun Qi with surprise.
"Okay, please process my discharge."
"But your body..."
"Xiao Yi, you know I used forbidden techniques, and my body can't hold on much longer. I want to go back to Maoshan..." Yun Qi smiled gently at Su Yi.
Even though Yunqi's smile was gentle, Su Yi felt like crying.
"Okay! I'll get discharged right away, and we'll go home right away!"
Chu Yanchen and Feng Yuan got a motorhome and took Su Yi and Yun Qi back to Maoshan.
After learning the whole story, Yun's father rushed back to Maoshan. He had been mentally prepared for this; being a Taoist priest meant either exorcising ghosts or being harmed by them. He was simply not expecting to outlive his son...
When Yunqi met her parents, her mother hugged her tightly and cried so hard she couldn't speak.
Yunqi patted her mother's back comfortingly: "Mother, don't cry. Life and death are predestined. This is Qiqi's fate."
Yunqi spent the rest of her time making arrangements for her funeral. She talked with her father, her mother, and Su Yi.
Yunqi said: Xiaoyi, I'm so reluctant to leave you, but I no longer have the strength to walk with you any further. I'm sorry, I have to go now...
Su Yi cried.
Yunqi said: Xiaoyi, you must be happy. Even if I'm not here anymore, you must still be happy. I love Xiaoyi when she's smiling. Seeing Xiaoyi smile makes me happy.
Su Yi nodded vigorously.
Yunqi said: "Xiaoyi, don't hold grudges. Resentment is too painful. I hope Xiaoyi will always be happy. The ghost messenger said that Xiaoyi possesses the Heavenly Eye, so do more good deeds."
"Yes!" Su Yi nodded vigorously.
Yunqi said: Xiaoyi...you must take good care of yourself...take good care of yourself...
Yunqi closed her eyes in Su Yi's presence. A smile remained on her lips, suggesting she had no regrets.
"Ding... Exiting the mission world."
Yunqi returned to the system space, feeling somewhat saddened. She took a deep breath and said, "Check my attributes."

"What is this merit all about?"
“You forcibly opened the Gate of Hell, which cost you 1,000 merit points. Since Su Yi offered her soul in the transaction, the 124 merit points she earned from doing good deeds in this life will naturally be credited to you.”
"Will Su Yi disappear after offering up his soul?"
"Yes. Su Yi will disappear after this life. She is very satisfied with this life and gave you an extra thousand points, so you have three thousand points this time. In addition, she gave you the Heavenly Eye. Do you want to see Su Yi's life after you leave?"
"...Yeah, see."
Xiao Qi played footage from that world, where Yunmu later gave birth to another boy named Yun Chu. Su Yi treated him like his own child. Su Yi became the next leader of Maoshan Sect, taking it upon himself to educate Yun Chu, and devoting most of his time to exorcising demons, catching ghosts, and doing good deeds. It was thought that Su Yi would end up with Feng Yuan, given their seemingly bickering relationship… but unexpectedly, Su Yi remained unmarried his entire life. Feng Yuan later married a woman arranged by his family and lived a normal life. Chu Yanchen took over the Chu family business, established a charitable foundation, and did good deeds with Su Yi. He remained unmarried, underwent IVF abroad, and brought back a baby boy to be raised by his parents. Meanwhile, the twin brothers, Han Enkang and Han Enze, whom the female ghost He Jiaren resented, rapidly emaciated within a year, perhaps due to some past actions by the ghost. They died like mummies, their last breath coming in. The Han family was quickly swallowed up by several other families… such an ending could be considered a fitting punishment for their evil deeds.
Recalling all the times she had spent with Su Yi, her heart softened, and then she looked at the empty system space... a touch of melancholy...
Yunqi sat cross-legged and tried to cultivate the soul technique "Heaven and Earth Technique". She felt something surging into her soul, and her soul became more solid. She continued cultivating until she could absorb no more before stopping.
"Xiao Qi, check the store."
"Okay. You can check out the Merit Mall."
"Merit Mall?"
"Yes. The points mall uses points, while the merit mall uses merit."
"Tell me the difference between these two."
"Items purchased with points in the points mall are stored in the system space, while items purchased with merit are stored directly in your soul. In special mission worlds, items purchased with points cannot be used. Items purchased with merit, however, are directly associated with your soul, are available by default, and will not be rejected by other planes."
Yunqi quickly browsed the items in the Merit Mall. It was basically the same as the Points Mall, except it was paid for with Merit Points. The furniture available in the Points Mall was the cheapest option in the Merit Mall, costing only 1 Merit Point. "Why didn't you tell me about the Merit Mall before?"
"...I don't want you to misuse your merits. Merits are a good thing. If you have a lot of merits, you will have less trouble in the mission world. To put it simply, God favors those with merits."
