Chapter 98 - Mineral Vein

Huanhuan quickly dragged Shuang Yun into the kitchen and explained the origins of the lotus flower from beginning to end.

Shuang Yun expressed his mixed feelings.

1

His wife had not cheated on him, but she had a son with another ferocious beast. What should he do?

1

When Bai Di and Sang Ye returned, they saw Xue Ling smiling and greeting them. “You’re all back. Sit down and rest!”

Why did he make it seem like he was the master of the house?!

1

Sang Ye remembered Huanhuan’s instructions. He glanced at Xue Ling and walked away expressionlessly.

1

Bai Di walked over and asked politely, “Why are you here, Elder Xue Ling?”

“I brought my son to look for his mother.”

1

“May I ask who the mother is?”

“It’s Huanhuan!”

Bai Di was speechless.

Huanhuan had just walked out of the kitchen and almost fell when she heard this.

She rolled her eyes at Xue Ling. “Can you stop saying such ambiguous words? We don’t have such a relationship!”

1

Xue Ling said, “I’m telling the truth.”

“Is that how you tell the truth? Do you want others to misunderstand?”

Xue Ling raised his hand and released the little flower bud. “Your mother despises us. What should we do?”

1

The little bud nuzzled his palm, then stretched out in front of Huanhuan again. It wrapped itself around her wrist and pulled her to Xue Ling. It put their hands together.

“Mom! Dad!”

Xue Ling touched the small bud and smiled. “Son, you’re so smart. I don’t dote on you for nothing!”

1

Bai Di looked at Huanhuan with a forced smile.

Huanhuan raised her hand weakly. “Let me explain…”

1

“Go ahead. I’m listening.”

Having experienced it once, Huanhuan explained it more clearly and quickly this time. Bai Di quickly understood where her and Xue Ling’s ‘son’ came from.

Bai Di was surprised that Xue Ling could think of such a way to approach Huanhuan.

1

It seemed that he was really interested in Huanhuan.

Unfortunately, Huanhuan did not seem to accept this.

Bai Di saw everything and said nothing.

1

He wouldn’t stop her, but he wouldn’t deliberately add fuel to the fire.

Everything depended on Huanhuan’s decision.

It was not until after dinner that Xue Ling slowly got up and left under Huanhuan’s urging. He took the skullcap with him too.

In his words—

“It’s hard enough being alone in the house. Fortunately, my son can be with me.”

Well, when he said this, he deliberately looked at Huanhuan as if she was a heartless person.

2

The corners of Huanhuan’s mouth twitched as she laughed dryly. “As long as you’re happy. Hehe.”

…

Sunflower seeds sold well, but Huanhuan had no intention of planting them on a large scale.

After all, it was not a primary source of food. Everyone was buying some because they were something new. In the future, when the novelty wore off, the sales of sunflower seeds would definitely slow down.

She would want to plant something else, preferably potatoes or rice. Not only could they use it to stave off hunger, but they could also last long.

Unfortunately, her level was too low. She could only buy sunflower seeds and long bean seeds in the crystal mall.

Even if her level was high enough and the other seeds in the crystal mall, she was so poor that she wouldn’t be able to afford a single seed.

Huanhuan called the system out.

“Little Brat, why haven’t you given me any missions recently?”

System 438 said, “The host did not trigger a random mission. The system will not automatically issue a mission.”

Huanhuan couldn’t help but ask, “Are there no other missions apart from random missions?”

“There are also special missions that the host can choose from.”

Huanhuan’s eyes lit up. “What special missions are there?”

“The difficulty of special missions is divided into beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels. The higher the difficulty, the more generous the reward. May I ask what level of mission the host wants?”

Upon hearing the words ‘generous reward’, Huanhuan couldn’t help but want to pick up the highest-level reward, but rationality stopped her from doing so.

1

She should take on a beginner mission first. If the beginner mission was simple, she would consider the intermediate and advanced missions.

After a while, System 438 said, “Three primary missions have been refreshed. They are related to planting, mining, and hunting.”

Huanhuan eliminated the hunting mission.

She was pregnant now. It was better for her not to do such bloody things.

After hesitating for a moment between planting and mining, she felt a little inclined to plant. After all, the foot of the mountain was already filled with vegetable and fruit forests. She was more familiar with this line of work. But just to be safe, she chose to ask tentatively, “Little Brat, which mission do you think I should choose?”

“After a comprehensive evaluation, the system suggests that the host accept the mineral mission.”

“Why?”

The system replied, “This mission is relatively simple for the host. Moreover, the host needs crystals very much now.”

Huanhuan was stunned. “Crystals? You mean I can dig crystals from mines?!”

“Of course!”

Huanhuan was so happy that she almost jumped up!

She originally thought that mining could only produce metals and the like, but she didn’t expect it to also produce crystals!

If she could dig out a crystal mine, wouldn’t she be rich?!

System No. 438 interrupted her fantasy. “Does the host want to accept a beginner mining mission?”

Huanhuan nodded without hesitation. “Yes, yes! I want to take on this mission!”

“The host has successfully accepted a beginner mining mission! You can’t give up on the special mission. You have three months to complete it. If the mission fails, the host will be punished!”

1

Huanhuan’s excitement cooled a little. “Why is there a time limit and punishment?”

“Before completing the special mission, the host will not be able to trigger any more random missions. I hope the host can complete the mission as soon as possible!”

Huanhuan endured it, but she still couldn’t suppress her doubts. “If the mission fails, what will the punishment be?”

“The punishment for a beginner mission is lighter. You’ll only be unconscious for seven days. If it’s a high-level mission, you’ll probably lose your life if you fail.”

2

Huanhuan broke out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, she wasn’t obsessed with accepting a high-level mission!

1

If the mission couldn’t be completed, it would kill her! It was terrifying!

Ever since she obtained the compass, Huanhuan did not have much of a chance to use it. Now that she could finally use it, Huanhuan expressed her excitement.

She followed the system’s guidance and twisted the mechanism in the middle of the compass.

Three rounds to the left, three to the right, then she let go.

The needle slowly began to turn.

Huanhuan stared at the needle without blinking. It spun faster and faster until it couldn’t stop!

She quickly asked, “Little Brat, is this compass broken? Why does it keep spinning?!”

System 438: “The treasure-seeking compass is not broken. Its needle is constantly spinning because the host is right above the mineral vein.”

Huanhuan was stunned.

There was a mineral vein under her feet?!
