Chapter 518: Chapter 516: Welly’s Speed
The Cold Frost Virus was eradicated by Xiaomei, and although some of the offspring viruses were still alive, they had no ability to reproduce and would eventually be wiped out by these game players.
[Host, the mission has been completed, and the reward has been received. Do you want to return to Beast World, or continue collecting Holy Grail Cards?]
[Collect Holy Grail Cards.]
Sally looked at the only World Card, which, with Bai Ren’s disappearance, no longer showed the figure on it.
He was just a remnant of Bai Ren, the real Bai Ren must have died long ago.
Qing Linghuan saw Sally’s spirits were down and handed her a painting, “Yanyan, this was drawn by Little Shiwu, it’s for you.”
The paper depicted a little black Heavenly Fox with nine tails, with a little white mouse with black eyes resting on its head, soundly asleep amidst the warm sunshine and flourishing flowers.
Sally’s face broke into a smile, “It’s been almost three months, I really miss them.”
Qing Linghuan then handed her a Storage Bag, “Inside are the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures I’ve collected for you to eat, don’t go hungry.”
“Huanhuan is so nice.” Sally hugged him and tiptoed to plant a kiss on his chin.
Qing Linghuan flashed a smug look towards Welly, who bore a gloomy expression.
Welly approached Sally, “Give me the World Card.”
“…Oh.” Sally handed over the World Card, which only had the image of White Snow Black Tower left on it, to Welly.
Welly took it and then disappeared immediately.
Sally stared in shock and asked Qing Linghuan, “Where did he go?”
“Who cares where he went. Is there any fun place in this world? Yanyan, take me around to relax a bit.”
“There actually is one. Come on, I’ll take you to the Underground City.” Sally put away the painting.
[Urgent Announcement!!!]
Sally’s Game System automatically popped up a virtual window with an announcement for the entire game world.
[The Holy Grail Card Fragment, the only World Card, has been obtained by Squad 9908, which also triggered and eliminated a special SS-grade Boss monster, the Cold Frost Worm. The world is about to upgrade.
All players! All players! Whether virtual or real, you will be logged out.]
[Urgent Announcement!!!]
[Holy Grail Card collection complete! Holy Grail Card story arc has ended, and the game world is about to enter a new chapter—Divine Scroll.]
The only World Card was in Welly’s hands, and his strength wouldn’t be easily defeated—eight or nine out of ten, it was he who completed the collection of the Holy Grail Card Fragments.
“So fast!” Sally was astonished.
“That’s right, he’s fast! Especially in that aspect, even faster!”
“…How would you know?” Sally was speechless.
“Hehe~ It wasn’t you who just said ‘so fast’!”
“…”
Qing Linghuan was about to register for the game system when Sally stopped him, “Don’t!”
“Why? He could accompany you to play, why can’t I?” Qing Linghuan wasn’t pleased.
Sally sighed, “You were summoned by me. Without registering in the game system, without a contract, you’re not considered a player, and if you’re not a player, you won’t be logged out.”
“Logged out? What about it?”
“You’ll die,” Sally replied.
She had completed the mission and could leave at any time.
Welly completed the Holy Grail Card collection and was safe and sound. But if Qing Linghuan signed a contract with the game world, he would be under its control.
The virtual players had no problem being logged out.
But the logout of real players had only one outcome…
The essence of the System was still cold and ruthless. The game world, just like the Holy War, treated human lives as insignificant.
Welly came back.
“Shall we go back?”
“Yes, let’s go back.”
The snowstorm grew heavier, and Sally looked up at the dim sky…
The forgotten you will eventually sleep in darkness.

Beast Emperor’s Palace.
Pei Xuan came to pick up Xiaohao to return to his residence.
Seeing a little white mouse with closed eyes lying listlessly on a garden swing, he approached and tapped her nose, “Xiaoqi is so bored, do you want to come play at Uncle’s house?”
“Yes, Uncle~” Sally opened her eyes, which were full of laughter.
“Why are you so easy to fool?” Zong Silu came out from inside the hall.
“Aside from their eyes, they look exactly alike, I don’t believe you can tell them apart.” Pei Xuan replied.
Zong Silu said, “Yanyan and Xiaoqi are still different; if you look at the tip of her ears, there are a few strands of fur that are slightly longer. Xiaoqi doesn’t have those. Moreover, the contours of Xiaoqi’s eye corners are deeper and the tails of her eyes are more upturned.”
Pei Xuan: “…Xiaoqi—”
Xiaoqi, riding on Little Shiqi, descended from the sky, “Uncle Pei, what’s up?”
Pei Xuan observed Xiaoqi closely, then glanced again at Sally, “It’s true! Just looking at those eyes, Xiaoqi will be even more beautiful than Yanyan in the future.”
“Isn’t that obvious? My daughters, each one of them, will grow up to be big beauties. When it’s time to find sons-in-law, you guys should keep a sharp eye out and watch closely for me.”
“…I get the feeling that marrying your daughter is going to be a very difficult task.” Pei Xuan said with a laugh.
“No matter how much we guard against it, surely some rascal will sweep her off her feet, huh!” Sally looked at Xiaoqi, who had an adorable face and completely clueless about what they were discussing.
Sally transformed back into her human form and stroked Xiaoqi’s smooth back fur, “Go play with your brother.”
“Okay.” Xiaoqi patted Little Shiqi again.
Little Shiqi, carrying Xiaoqi on his back, flew away again.
Pei Xuan remembered Sally’s downcast expression when he arrived, “Was the mission not smooth?”
“It was okay.” Sally stretched lazily, “Tonight, I’ll go to your place.”
Pei Xuan hurriedly looked at Zong Silu, only to see that he had already stood up and left, “Really?”
“Unless you don’t welcome me.” Sally tilted her head slightly, her eyes seemingly sweetened with sugar.
Pei Xuan’s adam’s apple bobbed, “You know well that I couldn’t ask for more.”
…
Jiaoyi Hall.
Zi Qi organized the papers and, seeing Zong Silu enter, pushed them toward him, “Still the same?”
Zong Silu nodded, “Yes, she chose to go to Pei Xuan’s place.”
“When she just came back, I thought she was just tired and feeling low. I didn’t expect her to be consistently gloomy.” Zi Qi said, her exquisitely beautiful brows slightly furrowed.
Zong Silu said, “What about Welly and Qing Linghuan?”
“Qing Linghuan went back to the Divine Realm to hunt again, and both children were also left here. Welly went back to the Asura Realm to cultivate in seclusion, and his son was left here as well.” Zi Qi smiled, “They seem to trust me quite a lot.”
“Because she is here with you.” Zong Silu also smiled, but remembering Sally’s state, he grew concerned, “Can we ask that Offspring System Little Beauty?”
“Little Beauty?”
“I once saw her talking with Putao after Yanyan had fallen asleep. Your Majesty could try asking Little Beauty after Yanyan falls asleep.”
After leaving the Beast Emperor’s Palace with Pei Xuan, Sally looked at Xiaohao hopping around by her legs and Little Fengning, asking, “Has Little Fengning been staying at your place recently?”
Pei Xuan nodded, “He likes being with Xiaohao, and my place is rather quiet, a bit more lively with an extra child.”
