Chapter 201 Reward: Sky-Mending Stone
"Younger brother, I now formally pass the throne to you."
Inside the main hall, civil and military officials gathered.
Empress Lin Daiyu personally placed a brand-new imperial crown, symbolizing imperial power, on her younger brother Lin Ziyu's head.
"If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight!"
"Ziyu, remember this: the world is vast, you must be diligent!"
Lin Daiyu gave her a solemn instruction.
"Sister~~" Lin Ziyu's eyes reddened, and tears streamed down her face.
He didn't want to succeed to the throne, but his sister beat him with a ruler.
I reminisced about my childhood again.
Today she officially ascended the throne, and the Empress announced her abdication.
"The empire is in your hands now. How far you go in the future depends on yourself. Your sister can't help you; she can only watch silently."
After Lin Daiyu finished speaking, she took a step back.
He glanced at his younger brother one last time, then turned and strode away.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty the Empress!"
"Congratulations to Your Majesty the Empress!"
Among the civil and military officials present, there were already several female officials.
They watched the Empress leave with faces full of reluctance.
Next, Lin Ziyu inherited the throne, ushering in another golden age.
As for Lin Daiyu, who would dare to disrespect her as the founding empress?
Even after abdicating, his prestige within the empire remained unmatched.
Lin Ziyu has destroyed several small countries and has considerable prestige. If he can govern well, he can conquer a vast territory in the surrounding areas.
His reputation would definitely reach the level of his sister, Empress Lin Daiyu.
After leaving the palace hall, Lin Daiyu returned alone to her own empress's chambers.
This place will be preserved as a palace that belongs solely to her.
I stood once again before that broken bronze mirror.
Lin Daiyu stared blankly at her reflection in the mirror.
She gently stroked her cheek, as if she could touch that unseen person.
"are you still there?"
She called out softly.
"Thank you, I'm so happy~~"
As Lin Daiyu spoke, tears began to fall.
Since waking up, the scenes I experienced in my dream and the ending of another story have deeply moved me.
The unseen person, the one who paved the way for all of this for her.
Now she will answer the other party.
"But you're no longer here."
Lin Daiyu let her tears flow, staring blankly at herself in the mirror.
"I am happy now, but I want to be even happier—"
"So you must wait for me."
No matter where you are, I will find you.
As Lin Daiyu spoke, she stroked a heavy close-in weapon system (CIWS) beside her.
This is a gift that Su Ming left for her.
It's unique; when I'm unhappy, I fire a few shots, and then I feel happy again.
... ...
In the villa.
A light fell.
Su Ming lay sprawled on the bed, completely relaxed.
"Settle the reward."
He opened the system interface.
[Ding, settlement in progress.]
Your cameo role is 500% complete.
Please choose one reward: (i) Nuwa's Sky-Mending Stone, (ii) All the abilities of the guest character, (iii) The Mirror of Love and Lust.
Choose from the rewards you receive for completing this task.
Su Ming's expression shifted as he stared at the first reward option.
"The Nuwa's Mending Stone?"
He was somewhat surprised that after the Spirit Jade was destroyed, the spiritual stone abandoned by Nuwa when she mended the sky transformed into a mysterious energy that merged into Lin Daiyu's body.
That power significantly enhanced his primordial spirit.
There's actually a Nuwa patching up the sky stone?
Looking at the second and third rewards, I simply gave up.
Lin Daiyu's abilities were basically all cultivated with his help. The third option, the Mirror of Love and Lust, is a treasure in Dream of the Red Chamber.
However, this thing wasn't of much use to him.
"Pick one."
Without a doubt, it must be the stone used by Nuwa to mend the sky.
This is a five-colored stone for mending the sky, refined by Nuwa; it contains the power to mend the heavens.
Buzz~!
As soon as I made the choice, a dazzling array of colors suddenly appeared in my mind.
A five-colored stone fell into the sea of consciousness.
It is the stone that Nuwa used to mend the sky.
As the Sky-Mending Stone appeared, Su Ming's primordial spirit trembled slightly, and a wisp of multicolored light surged from his body, resonating with it.
The next second, the Sky-Mending Stone flew into his primordial spirit.
Upon merging with his primordial spirit, a wondrous energy spread, causing his primordial spirit to radiate multicolored divine light, and a sky-mending stone appeared between his brows.
This thing can actually temper the primordial spirit. Even if the primordial spirit is shattered, it can still be repaired with the help of the energy of the Heaven-Mending Stone.
If even the heavens can be mended, then a mere shattered primordial spirit can be repaired in an instant, right?
Therefore, after obtaining the Nuwa Mending Stone, he could immediately repair his primordial spirit and even his physical body if they collapsed.
This is equivalent to adding another bug that allows for unlimited self-repair.
"Tsk tsk, now it's probably difficult for me to die even if I want to."
Su Ming said with a sigh.
It's like having an insurance policy: even if your physical body is reduced to dust, you can still repair it and restore it using the Heaven-Mending Stone.
In addition, his physical body can regenerate itself with just one cell, and with the Sky-Mending Stone, it's practically telling him that he can do whatever he wants.
"We can't be reckless."
Su Ming quickly dismissed the idea.
The worst thing a person can do is to be arrogant and conceited; those who are arrogant will surely be punished by Heaven.
"Master, you're back?"
The door opened, and Ah Li walked in sweetly, throwing herself into his arms and acting coquettishly.
"Master, Ahri misses you so much."
Ahri, acting coquettishly, became more and more charming and alluring.
Su Ming patted her and comforted her, "Isn't it back now? Perfect timing to play a fun little game with you, Ah Li."
Ding~~!
A graceful figure in red entered through the door.
Xiao Li, Nie Xiaoqian, and Xiao Qing flew out from the Emperor's Banner.
"Come on, come on -"
"Xiaoli, turn on the air conditioner."
"Xiaoqian will play music, and Xiaoqing will dance for the young master~~"
Su Ming looked at Nie Xiaoqian and the others who flew in and immediately gave them instructions.
He started enjoying life as soon as he got back.
Damn it, why do you get to enjoy yourself like this?
... ...
The next day.
Su Ming slept in.
No matter how hard Ahri tried, she couldn't wake him up.
"Ah Li, stop busying yourself."
Nie Xiaoqian said helplessly, "Young Master once said that you can never wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep."
"Yes, yes, let's go back inside the Emperor's Banner and take a nap."
Xiaoqing yawned and pulled Xiaoli along as they floated into the Emperor's Banner.
The woman in red nestled quietly beside him, her eyes silently watching the sleeping Su Ming.
"Okay, then I'll go surf the internet."
"Go help the kids quit the internet."
Ali was bored, so she lay in his arms, closed her eyes, and went online to surf the internet.
She's now obsessed with games and has created many game accounts online. It's really fun to abuse kids.
During this period, Ali successfully helped many children quit the internet.
The merit is immeasurable!
Su Ming slept until the afternoon before finally waking up.
"Home is the best, it's so comfortable."
Upon waking, Su Ming stretched and kissed Ah Li in his arms.
Then he hugged the woman in red for comfort.
Meanwhile, Nie Xiaoqian had prepared chilled drinks and a table full of food.
Nie Xiaoqian is truly a woman who can grace a grand hall and descend to the underworld.
"Young master, it's time for your meal."
Xiaoqian served him the meal.
"Xiaoqian, you've spoiled me rotten."
Su Ming lay lazily in the arms of the woman in red, expecting to be waited on hand and foot.
He's been made to look like a giant baby.
Nie Xiaoqian smiled gently and said, "Xiaoqian just loves serving you, young master."
"Sigh, you must cultivate the soul cultivation method that I created for you properly, and transform into the Yang God state as soon as possible. When Yin and Yang are united, you can truly achieve immortality through the derivation of flesh and blood."
Su Ming affectionately rubbed Xiaoqian's cheek and gave her some instructions.
"Okay, Xiaoqian has it."
Nie Xiaoqian nodded seriously and took note.
Su Ming spent some time with them before heading out to Tokyo Bay.
Because the little witch over there is praying and calling for him.
"I have something to do, I'm going out for a bit."
After saying that, he disappeared into the room.
