【I’m sorry, Ye Feng. The reason I left without saying goodbye this time is because I can’t bear to see you get hurt again. All of this is my fault...】
【First of all, I apologize for my actions. I failed to keep our promise and caused such a big mess, even putting you in danger for my sake. I’m truly sorry. Yet, you didn’t blame me and even risked your life to come to my side... At that moment, I was really, really happy... It’s so wonderful to have met someone like you~】
【Actually... I didn’t want to leave your side either, but as the saying goes, a temporary parting is just for a better reunion in the future, right? The reason I’m leaving is to take care of some personal matters. It’s definitely not because of anything you did, so don’t think of it in a bad way. If I find out you’re secretly following me, I’ll be mad!】
As she wrote this, Xie Yuyan even playfully added an emoticon.
o(´^`)o
【My phone is just temporarily in your care. Remember to return it to me when I come back! After all, you bought it for me, so it’s mine now! And... so are you! Also, remember to eat the food in the fridge. Don’t tell me you can’t cook just because I’m not around, you dummy!】
Just when Ye Feng thought Xie Yuyan had finished writing, he noticed there was still a small paragraph at the bottom of the memo. She had adjusted the font size to be smaller, and when Ye Feng read it clearly, he couldn’t help but smile.
【Oh, and one more thing! Don’t... don’t forget me... or I’ll really get mad! And if I find out you’ve forgotten me, I swear... I’ll kill you!】
“Sigh.”
After making sure he had read every last bit of Xie Yuyan’s message, Ye Feng turned off her phone. For some reason, he walked out to the balcony, feeling the evening breeze gently brush against his face. His expression turned slightly melancholic.
Maybe this is for the best. After all, staying by my side might be the most dangerous choice for her.
That last line from Xie Yuyan was a joke, right?
Right?
......
In the shadows beneath Ye Feng’s apartment, Xie Yuyan stood, gazing up at his faint silhouette. She whispered softly to herself.
“Ye Feng... wait for me... When I come back next time, no one will interfere with us anymore. Then, I can finally have you all to myself ♡”
With that, Xie Yuyan’s figure disappeared into the shadows, leaving behind a single tear that fell onto the ground where she had stood.
......
“Hmm...”
The next morning, Ye Feng walked out of his room and, out of habit, began to greet someone.
“Good morning, Xie Yuyan... Oh, right. It’s back to the way things were before. Guess it’s time to readjust.”
After collecting his thoughts, Ye Feng sat down on the sofa, lost in contemplation.
So much had happened recently. It all started when Li Mucheng was targeted by a criminal group, and then Xie Yuyan left safely. The timeline was so tight that Ye Feng, already exhausted, barely had time to rest before being thrown back into action. One by one, he had used up his trump cards—first the Limit Capsule, then the Antidote, and even the newly acquired Radar. Now, he was practically back to square one.
Oh, right! I haven’t checked the system in a while. The task should be completed by now. Maybe it’s a good time to see what rewards I’ve earned.
As he thought this, the system interface gradually appeared in his mind. Sure enough, the first thing displayed was an unclaimed task reward.
Following his mental command, the rewards materialized before him.
【Task completed. Distributing rewards...】
【Rewards: 30 days of Life Time, Universal Key】
“That’s... it?!”
Ye Feng had been hoping for some special items, but aside from the Universal Key, there was nothing substantial in his inventory.
“Well, 30 days is better than nothing, I guess.”
Just as Ye Feng thought everything was over, he noticed that after claiming the task rewards, the system informed him there were still unclaimed rewards. Following the prompt, he discovered that something had changed in the Archives.
【Achievement Unlocked: “Narrow Escape.” Host has successfully avoided danger. Distributing progress reward and survival reward.】
“Huh? Survival reward? Narrow Escape? What’s all this about?”
The sudden system notification left Ye Feng completely baffled. He understood the progress reward—it was likely related to Xie Yuyan and Li Mucheng, as they were the only ones recorded in the Archives.
“If it’s a reward related to the Archives, then the source must be in there.”
With that thought, Ye Feng focused his attention on the Archives. After a thorough review, he found that aside from Xie Yuyan’s progress reaching an unprecedented 99%, everything else seemed normal. Even the newly acquired exploration progress showed no changes. But the system had mentioned not only a progress reward but also a survival reward, tied to the “Narrow Escape” achievement. If that was the case, why hadn’t he received such a reward during the dangerous moments when rescuing Li Mucheng? Why did Xie Yuyan’s task have this reward?
Could it be related to that 30% progress? But it hasn’t increased...
After pondering for a long time, Ye Feng still couldn’t figure out why the system had issued this reward. Even when he tried to ask the system directly, there was no response.
Unable to uncover any useful clues, Ye Feng decided to give up for now and shifted his focus back to the task rewards.
After claiming both the progress reward and the survival reward, Ye Feng did a quick tally.
“In total, the rewards add up to about three months of Life Time. Combined with what I had before, that’s almost half a year. Life’s looking better and better. As for item rewards, aside from the Substitute Doll, there’s something called a Fake Death Pill.”
【Fake Death Pill: After consumption, the user will enter a state of suspended animation for one full day. During this time, no matter what happens, the user will not wake up. Use with caution due to its powerful effects.】
Reading the description of the Fake Death Pill sent a shiver down Ye Feng’s spine. While the item sounded impressive, he couldn’t think of a reason to use it. Why would I want to fake my death? That’s just asking for trouble. I don’t know why the system keeps giving me these weird items. I’d rather have a few more Substitute Dolls for extra security.

ose... to cooperate with the protagonist! Shen Yuan: I have a system! Protagonist: What? System: Holy crap, you're just spilling it out like that? Shen Yuan: Let's team up, we'll split the system rewards! Protagonist: Fifty-fifty split? Shen Yuan: No way! Protagonist: What!? I'm the one getting beaten up, and I don't get half?

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)

invincible power, Gu Changge transmigrates into a fantasy world, bound to a sign-in system that grants him cultivation rewards and various peerless treasures daily. While others struggle desperately to break through their cultivation realms, he has long since reached the pinnacle of the Great Dao, becoming a reclusive Emperor whose true strength even he himself cannot fathom. Originally planning to lie low and retire peacefully on Purple Bamboo Peak, the system suddenly issues a new task — take on disciples. With no other choice, Gu Changge casually picks up a few disciples: The eldest disciple, born with a War God Constitution, is thrown a copy of "War God Stratagems" by him, and ends up conquering the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, becoming a peerless War God who sweeps across the cosmos. The second disciple, possessing a Chaos Sword Body, can break all techniques with a single sword, his swordsmanship unmatched throughout history. He points his sword at the heavens: "My master said, the sword and the man stand together. If the sword perishes... my master will give me another one." The third disciple, a reborn Empress who returns to her throne, her elegance and grace overshadowing all beings. And without anyone noticing, his own sect, the Qingxuan Sect, has become the number one sect on the continent. Looking at these unbelievably formidable disciples, Gu Changge, holding the "Primordial Purple Qi" he just signed in for, falls into deep thought: — Wasn't this supposed to be a peaceful retirement? How did I become the ultimate master?!
