“It’s been so long since we last met – you’ve become a phoenix!” He was indeed the lovechild of a dragon and a phoenix. He could change between all three forms. Lonemoon patted Yi Qing on the shoulder.
Yi Qing swayed and then collapsed. Shen Ying caught him and held him up. “Chef!”
Lonemoon jumped back in shock. It was only then that he noticed that Yi Qing’s face was drained of colour. Beads of perspiration were dripping down his face. “Holy shit, are you alright?” He quickly helped to support Yi Qing’s other side.
“I’m alright.” Yi Qing shook his head and smiled wryly, as if trying his hardest to assure Shen Ying. “Don’t worry, Master. I’m just extremely worn out.”
Shen Ying frowned. “Are you sure?”
“Yes.” He nodded.
Shen Ying looked at Father Niu, who nodded as well. Lonemoon sighed, “His meridians are indeed fine.” He really did use too much God Power. “We have to quickly destroy this planet. What should we do next?”
“We should buy a bomb and throw it down there.” Shen Ying turned back to the screen and tapped on it. Suddenly, it flickered. All around, they saw bombs being put in place. “There just happened to be many on sale in the Star Network’s black market.” She scanned her surroundings and selected the cheapest one among them. Immediately, an alert sounded in the room.
[Ding! You don’t have enough funds to make the purchase!]
Lonemoon: “…”
Yi Qing: “…”
“Er…” Shen Ying hesitated. “I forgot to fill up my game currency.”
Fill what f*cking game currency? Didn’t you always hack into networks?
“How should we change accounts?” Lonemoon pursed his lips and sighed.
“Huh?” Shen Ying stared blankly back at him.
Lonemoon was already stepping forward and tapping on the wristband that he still had on. The next moment, there was another alert. A screen appeared in front of him. The words “Shen Ying” changed to “Father Niu”.
Raising his hand, he picked the most expensive type of bond.
There were a series of beeps and a familiar alert sounded.
[Ding! Purchase successful! Please visit us again next time!]
A moment later, a luxury explosive device which was all blue in colour appeared in front of the group.
Shen Ying: “…”
Yi Qing: “…”
(⊙_⊙)
Shen Ying raised her head to look at the screen and was almost blinded by the number of zeros she saw on Father Niu’s account.
“Father Niu, did you hack the Star Network’s bank?”
“Hack what bank?” Lonemoon rolled his eyes at her like a true CEO. “Wasn’t this the money we earned from playing that game earlier on?”
“Er… didn’t we get wiped out?”
“They wiped out my points,” Lonemoon explained casually. “But the corpses that we killed were still under my name. I took the chance these couple of days to tidy things up.”
“Then… you sold those beasts?” Wasn’t that rubbish? How were they so valuable?
“I checked the industry chain in the Star Network as well while I was at it. I sent the corpses to a recycling company and split them into their respective parts before selling them. I’ve only just received half of the amount I sold them for. I’m still waiting for the other half to come in!”
As he spoke, he scanned the number in his account. Indeed, the huge number was still increasing. They listened to the sound of the number rising.
Shen Ying: “…”
Yi Qing: “…”
“Why are you staring at me?”
“No… Nothing. It’s just that we feel the sudden urge to call you Daddy!”
“Get lost!”

With Father Niu’s huge financial support, the three of them managed to finish their task in just one day. Shen Jing kept to her word and retrieved two pieces of paper, on which she wrote the words “Plane Permit”. She handed those pieces of paper to her.
Lonemoon looked at the A4 paper in front of him and did not react for a long time.
This was too freaking careless, wasn’t it? Didn’t she say that she would not hand out the permits so easily? The permits were just pieces of paper! Lonemoon shot a look at Shen Ying beside him and resisted the urge to vomit blood.
Yi Qing, on the other hand, was beyond shocked. He did not realise that anything was wrong. From the moment he landed on Earth, he had been feeling like something was dragging him back. Suddenly, that feeling was gone.
“That’s right – you said earlier that there’s a problem with Shen Ying’s body. What’s the problem?” Lonemoon asked.
“Little Ying…” Shen Jing turned to the woman next to her, her expression softening. Her gaze was overflowing with love and affection as her eyes welled up. “Every time I think of my cute Little Ying being dragged into a foreign plane to suffer, my heart hurts! But don’t worry now, I will surely settle scores with those bastards!”
Shen Ying: “…” There is nothing worth living for.
Yi Qing: “…” Did Master’s older sister activate some kind of special characteristics?
Lonemoon: “…” This woman is obsessed with her younger sister, isn’t she? She must be!
What’s more, this cheat Shen Ying did not even suffer!
“I can’t find out what’s wrong with her body, but i’ve already found a similar plane as the one you all described!” As if recalling something, Shen Jing pulled out a screen and began tapping away on it. “I’ve already contacted the manager over there. She will send a permit over here soon. After that, I’ll go over and check things out for you. I’ll find out exactly what’s wrong with your body.”
“A similar plane.” Lonemoon hesitated. “Is there another immortal cultivator plane?”
“Yes.” Shen Jing nodded. “There’s no way of estimating the plane’s coordinates. Apart from our plane and the plane that you all went to, there are several other planets that are very similar to both.”
“Can you really find out the problem with Shen Ying?”
“I can’t say for sure.” Shen Jing sighed and frowned. “But I have to try.”
Once she finished speaking, an alert sounded throughout the house.
“They’ve sent over the permit!” Shen Jing stood up as yet another screen popped up in front of her. On the screen was just one word written in red: Permit. Shen Jing raised her head and swiped the screen. The word split open and a gate opened right in front of her. A long white path began to form right before their eyes.
“Let’s go.” Shen Jing nodded toward the group of them. She took one step forward, then disappeared.
The few of them exchanged meaningful looks. This was the first time that all of them, apart from Shen Jing, were going to meet another manager. It was understandable that they were a little nervous. What’s more, they had no idea how the other manager was going to look.
Lonemoon sucked in a deep breath and took a step forward as well. There was a flash of white, and immediately, they found themselves in a whole other environment.
They heard the familiar sound of.. cooking!
Then, there was a young woman’s voice.
“You’re here? Give me a moment. Let me clean up and I’ll be right over!”
Shen Ying: “…”
Lonemoon: “…”
Yi Qing: “…”
What the hell?
