Liguang was, surprisingly, actually recharging on her own…
Fang Qi stared blankly, chewing on a piece of canned meat.
“Master, master!”
Liguang suddenly called out!
“Liguang knows why now!”
…?!
Fang Qi nearly choked!
He hurriedly swallowed, then looked up at the silver-haired girl before him.
Liguang was standing by the lab table, the white gauze over her right eye slightly askew, her single amber eye sparkling as she gazed at him!
That expression — smug and proud.
…And also kind of silly!
Fang Qi looked at her like that, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
“…You know what?”
The silver-haired girl immediately puffed out her chest!
“Master, Liguang thinks…”
“This place right now, it’s like a big ‘wishing pool’!”
Fang Qi was stunned.
A big wishing pool…
“Master, do you remember?”
Liguang then began counting on her fingers, pretending to recall in a serious manner:
“Back when the rules were chaotic, when Master wanted water, he got teleported to the water dispenser.”
“When he wanted something, he got sent to the supply area!”
“Doesn’t that mean…”
Her amber eye sparkled as she looked at him:
“These rules are actually fulfilling Master’s ‘wishes’?”
…Huh?
Fang Qi stared back at her, eyes wide.
Wait, that’s how you interpret it?
Wife, your imagination is way too wild!
But…
Fang Qi’s eyebrow twitched.
Actually… that kind of makes sense?
…Huh?
He tilted his head.
“So!”
Liguang stood up!
Hands behind her back, she leaned forward slightly and blinked at Fang Qi:
“Those strange rules have learned their lesson now.”
“Liguang thinks they’re now…”
“Using gentler methods to fulfill Liguang’s wishes!”
Fang Qi stared at her, dazed.
Fulfilling wishes…
The silver-haired girl continued confidently:
“Because Liguang wants to always have power, so she can always stay with Master!”
“So Liguang’s battery isn’t just staying the same — it’s going up!”
Then she nodded firmly!
“That’s right, exactly that!”
“The rules here are really great people!”
Fang Qi: “…”
He looked at her smug, proud little face, and for a moment…
He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry!
Wife, you look pretty silly right now!
She was clearly just guessing!
With her current processing power, she had to squint at a can label from up close just to read it — there’s no way she could come up with any solid conclusion!
But…
Fang Qi stroked his chin, staring at the half-eaten can in front of him.
You know what?
Now that you mention it…
What she said actually made some sense!
Maybe this was the cause of the benign bug?
Want something, and it comes; lack something, and it’s provided!
Sure, it was always a bit off before…
But the general direction was in their favor.
Hmm…?
Fang Qi blinked.
Was that really true?
Hmm.
Forget it!
Fang Qi shook his head firmly.
Whatever the reason, the bottom line is —
Liguang’s battery running in reverse is a good thing!
“So, Master!”
Liguang kneeled down beside him again, leaning against him and tilting her face up:
“Liguang won’t eat the canned meat. Let’s leave it all for Master… Mph!”
Her eyes went wide as she looked at Fang Qi, her mouth —
stuffed with a piece of canned meat!
Because Fang Qi, while she was talking, stabbed a chunk of meat and shoved it right into her mouth!
Forget leaving it for him — eat up!
Mainly because Liguang was being so adorable right now, he just couldn’t resist that urge to…
tease her!
Liguang was caught completely off guard, her little mouth stuffed so full it puffed out!
Her single eye went wide, and she protested in a muffled voice:
“Mastahhh…!”
“Hahaha!”
So cute!
Full and satisfied.
Fang Qi took Liguang’s hand and stood in front of the safe room door…
Taking a deep breath.
This time, he actually felt a bit relaxed and excited!
Looking at the slightly eager, yandere-ish girl beside him…
Fang Qi smiled!
“Liguang, let’s go!”
“Mm!”
…
The hallway outside the door was no different from yesterday.
The mosaic walls were still slowly squirming, the multicolored, murky patches of color still wriggling.
The floor was still that pixelated swamp.
The two walked side by side, until…
They turned a corner.
Fang Qi’s eyes suddenly lit up!
The passage ahead had completely changed!
The mosaic was still there, but it no longer writhed in that nauseating way!
Now it flickered steadily, like stars!
The colors were much brighter than before — the dark, dull metallic tones were gone, replaced by pale blue, soft pink, and gentle purple intertwined!
It was as if…
someone had shattered an entire starry sky and sprinkled it across the walls!
“…Wow!”
Liguang peeked out from beside him!
Her amber eye reflected those shimmering lights, sparkling!
“Master, it suddenly got so pretty here!”
Indeed!
So pretty!
With one glance, there was no end to the colorful sight!
If this were an amusement park, they’d charge a fortune just for the entrance to this corridor!
Fang Qi unconsciously curled his lips into a smile!
He was already more relaxed than yesterday, and now, seeing such “scenery,” his mood immediately lifted!
The two walked hand in hand through the starlit corridor.
Fang Qi looked up at the pixel lights flickering in a regular rhythm, feeling a sense of calm he hadn’t known since entering this maze.
The silver-haired girl beside him also looked up at the lights, her amber eye full of curiosity and delight.
Without thinking, Fang Qi tightened his grip on Liguang’s hand…
Then broke into a run!
“Ahh!”
The silver-haired girl was tugged along, jogging to keep up, the woven bag swaying gently behind her!
“Master, slow down a bit!”
The silver-haired girl’s laughter rang out behind him.
“It’s so pretty here — let’s walk slowly!”
…
For the rest of the day, following the plan they’d made the night before, they headed in the direction where the corruption was lighter.
After leaving that corridor, everything seemed to sink back into darkness.
But the two of them were in much better spirits!
Unfortunately, they didn’t make it back to the B1 level.
Along the way, they came across a few doors, but opening them only revealed pixelated ruins, devastated everywhere.
The corruption seemed to have worsened.
On the way back, Liguang wasn’t the least bit discouraged.
“Master, the heavier the corruption, the more likely there are loopholes — we’ll get out sooner!”
She lifted her face to Fang Qi with complete confidence.
Fang Qi couldn’t help but pinch her nose!
By the time they returned to the safe room, it was already evening.
Fang Qi had just sat down on the yoga mat, thinking that another day had passed…
When a soft, warm body pounced on him from behind!
Slender arms wrapped around his waist from behind, and a small silver head pressed against his back, nuzzling hard!
“Master, we already rested yesterday — no resting today!”
Mm…
That’s right!
Very, very right!
It was time to explore the meaning of life!
And so…
The yoga mat bore more pressure than it was ever designed to handle!
…
When he woke up, Fang Qi could feel the soft warmth in his arms.
Mm.
Such a good girl.
Just like she’d promised.
He looked down at Liguang, curled up against his chest, gazing at him.
The silver-haired girl’s eyes curved into a smile…
She’d been watching him like that all night again.
“Master’s awake! Liguang will make breakfast!”
After breakfast, the two of them headed out again.
Fang Qi tested the temperature of each door with the back of his hand as usual, and behind most of them lay nothing but ravaged pixel ruins.
Then, around another corner, a door far more intact than the rest appeared before him.
He reached out and pushed it open…
And immediately his eyes went wide!
"This is—!"
"Oh my goodness, Master!"
Both of them gasped at the exact same moment.
Because what lay before them was a room completely consumed by mosaic—but unlike the other ruins with their squirming pixels, the walls here were made of soft white and pale yellow tiles!
Every single pixel was uniform in shape, crisp in edge, and…
Reflective!
Like a wall of tiny mirrors, each one clearly reflecting the two figures standing there.
Even stranger, the shout they'd just let out was now echoing through the corridor in layered waves!
Liguang's "Oh my goodness, Master" was still bouncing around their ears, over and over!
Fang Qi held Liguang's small hand and strolled through the room, a little dazed.
So even a place like this existed…?
This "mosaic erosion" felt more and more wondrous by the day…
So beautiful…
"It's really beautiful…"
Beside him, the silver-haired girl murmured again.
Her voice was soft, but—
"So beautiful… so beautiful… so beautiful…"
The echoes still rippled outward, stacked upon each other!
She blinked, and then her eyes lit up!
Then, in an even quieter voice, she said:
"Master, I like you…!"
Instantly, the corridor rang out with countless gentle reverberations!
"I like you," "I like you," "I like you"…
Some near, some far, some loud, some soft, crashing in from all directions!
It was as if the entire world was confessing on her behalf!
Oh man!
Fang Qi actually shivered a little!
His ears felt like they might melt!
And Liguang turned to look at him, then proudly gave him a little chin-up.
Fang Qi raised an eyebrow!
He wasn't about to lose!
So he took a deep breath…
And shouted down the corridor:
"Liguang, I love you!"
The echoes came back fierce and unrestrained!
"I love you! I love you! I love you!"
The tiny mirrored tiles on the walls trembled!
The silver-haired girl immediately turned rosy-cheeked, eyes curling into happy crescents.
The echoes set off a new change.
The mosaic floor began to shimmer, lighting up patches of soft, glowing spots like pressure-sensitive lights being stepped on.
Even more, they drifted slowly with the rhythm of the echoes!
The spots rippled outward from beneath their feet!
Ring after ring!
The two kept walking.
The ground beneath them was growing soft—they couldn't afford to stop.
And the glowing patches chased their footsteps, dragging shallow trails of light across the pixel-tiled floor.
Fang Qi's gaze went slightly unfocused.
A place like this…
"Master!"
His hand was suddenly squeezed by a smaller one!
"This place is so pretty—let's dance together!"
Fang Qi: "…Huh?"
Dance?
He turned his head and looked at that silly grinning face in front of him.
He opened his mouth.
She looked a little clueless, but…
So happy.
…Well, of course he wouldn't say no!
"…Let's do it!"
So there they were, in this corridor filled with nothing but their voices and the shifting light, clumsily wrapped in each other's arms.
Fang Qi had no idea how to dance.
His hands didn't know where to go, and his feet were utterly beyond his control.
He tried to take a step, and the sole of his shoe landed right on Liguang's toes.
"Master, you're so clumsy—you stepped on Liguang's foot again!"
"…I never learned to dance, you have to teach me!"
"Hehe, but Master can't stop moving, or we'll sink right down!"
…
…
He woke up again.
Fang Qi stared at the ceiling for a few seconds, then reached over to brush aside the white veil askew across Liguang's face.
After a canned-breakfast meal, they headed out once more.
The mosaic outside was still flickering. The erosion seemed…
A little worse than before.
But Liguang was still bouncing ahead, full of energy!
She swung his hand back and forth, humming that off-key little tune!
Around another corner, they came across a metal door far heavier than any they'd seen so far. Fang Qi tested it with the back of his hand—cold, and solid all the way through, heavy enough that he had to put some effort into shoving it open.
The view beyond made them both freeze!
"Whoa!"
"Wow!"
They cried out in unison again!
Behind the door lay a mosaic-formed ocean that stretched beyond the reach of sight!
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter.

When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on...
