Lonemoon became increasingly confused as he looked at the other “manager”. She was dressed in home clothes and slippers. She held a gaming console in her hands and she was clicking on it rapidly. She gritted her teeth as she cursed under her breath.
“The one who destroyed our tower in the middle is coming. Stop dreaming, stop him!”
“Why are all of you still going your own ways? Gather over here!”
“The Big Dragon is out, the Big Dragon is out. Go over and steal it now. Fatty, what are you doing? Go big, go big!”
“Holy shit, what are you pulling onto me for? Do you even know how to play this game!”
The group sat quietly on the couch for over half an hour, yet she still did not stop. Instead, she became more and more engrossed in the game, as if completely forgetting that there were four visitors right next to her.
Didn’t Shen Jing say this was a pretty good immortal cultivator realm? Why was the manager’s place so up-to-date? In fact, it was more similar to their modern world. There were even similar models of gaming consoles back in the modern world where they came from.
Lonemoon was just about to ask if Shen Jing had brought the through the wrong door when a man suddenly walked out of the kitchen. He was dressed in a warm-looking uniform, yet he emanated a certain cold Qi. Just one look at him made them feel cold to the bones. The man looked awkwardly at the visitors, put down the food in his hands, and approached them.
“Yu... Yao,” he called the woman who was still engrossed in her game. He sounded just as cold as he looked. Yet, his expression softened slightly as he looked at the woman and snatched the gaming console out of her hands.
“Eh?” The woman tried to snatch it back. “Master, I’m about to win...”
“Yu Yao!” The man frowned and looked briefly at the group of people seated at the couch.
The woman paused, then turned to follow his gaze. She pursed her lips. “I’m sorry, I forgot you were still here.”
She immediately stood up and cleared her throat. “Little Jing, it’s been a long time since we last met.” She smiled warmly at Shen Jing. When she turned to face Shen Ying, her eyes twinkled. “Is this your Little Ying? She’s so adorable and cute!”
“She is, isn’t she?” Shen Jing smiled. She pulled the other woman’s arm and continued fawning, “You have no idea – she was even cuter when she was a child! I still have a photo of her when she was younger.”
“Do you? Let me see it!” The two of them huddled close together.
“Look, this was taken when she was one. This one was taken when she was two.”
“Whoa! It’s true! Look, she was so chubby. How did you raise her? What milk powder did you use?”
“This could be a science. I did not feed her just any milk powder.”
“You have so much experience – why don’t you share it with me. I could use the same tricks on that little one at home.”
“Alright, alright! Let me tell you...”
Shen Ying: “...”
Lonemoon: “...”
Yi Qing: “...”
The two of them were about to begin sharing all of their experience with rising children. The three people remaining on the couch frowned. Shen Ying pursed her lips and could not help but pull the woman next to her back. “Older SIster...” Do you even remember why we’re here?
Shen Jing paused. Slowly, she kept the gaming console. “Yao Yao, I already told you about my situation awhile ago. This time, I brought Little Ying here to let you examine her for yourself. Your plane is quite similar to hers. I guess you’d be able to tell exactly what her problem is.”
“Relax.” The woman beat her own chest twice. “Your problem is my problem as well. Let me solve it.” She turned to face the group and smiled specifically at Shen Ying. Then, she raised out a hand and said, “Little Ying, how are you? I’m a good friend of your older sister’s. I’m Zhu Yao.”
“Shen Ying.” Shen Ying shook Zhu Yao’s hand.
Zhu Yao turned back to face Shen Jing and asked, “Oh yes, you didn’t explain very clearly in your message – what exactly is wrong with her body?”
“I can’t retrieve her body’s data. I suspect she’s even gone over all the limits,” Shen Ying answered in a low voice. “This only happened after she got dragged into that deviant plane.”
Zhu Yao nodded, then gestured for Shen Ying to stand up. She circled around her and frowned. “That’s strange. I don’t see anything wrong with her!” Immortal Qi aside, Shen Ying did not even have a bit of spirit Qi flowing in her. This was not possible for someone who had been to an immortal cultivator realm.
“You can’t tell either?” Shen Jing’s expression fell.
Zhu Yao pondered for a moment. As if recalling something, she suddenly turned back and said to the cold man, “Master, why don’t you take a look at Little Ying for me?” She turned to explain to the group, “My master knows more about the immortal cultivator realm than I do.”
The man frowned and gestured toward the two men on the couch. “The two of their cultivation levels are not lower than mine. If they can’t see what the problem is, I probably will not be able to as well.”
“Well, we have no choice but to use the system’s Heavenly Eye then.” She activated a screen out of nowhere. “Before the Realm Spirit left, it gave me a detection system. It’s meant to detect any bugs in the plane and alert me to them. Through the system, once can detect anomalies.”
She glanced at Shen Ying and started up the system, explaining, “If there really is something wrong with Little Ying’s data, the system will surely detect the bug. It will also say “BUG” on the screen. This way, if we trace back to the reason...”
“We’ll be able to find out exactly how she turned out this way?” Shen Jing exclaimed in excitement.
“Yes!” Zhu Yao nodded. “But only the manager will be able to read the words on the system.
With a beep, a light flashed onto Shen Ying’s forehead and moved slowly down to her toes. Indeed, Shen Ying’s figure began to blur on the screen that Shen Jing and Zhu Yao were looking at. In its place, words appeared.
The words were getting bigger and clearer. A moment later, one big word was written on Shen Ying’s face: BOSS.
Zhu Yao: “...”
Shen Jing: “...”
(⊙_⊙)
What the hell?
Why did it say “BOSS”? Was it not meant to say “BUG”? And why were the words in gold and not in black?
“Yao Yao, didn’t you say... there would only be three letters?” Why were there four now?
“I... I don’t know either.” She had never seen a situation like that. To the system, a “BUG” could be fixed, but what could be done to a “BOSS”?
“Will it still be able to detect the reason?”
“Let me try!” Zhu Yao paused and sprang into action. She pointed to the screen and began to tap on it. There were a couple of beeps, and then a line of red words bounced onto the screen – Wrong target, error receiving information!
“I don’t think so!” Zhu Yao frowned apologetically. “I’m sorry, Little Jing. I can’t help you.”
“No worries. We only came here to try our luck. In any event, I can’t figure out the problem as well. You haven’t been the plane manager for very long. It’s expected that you would not be able to detect the problem.”
“That’s right, I’m still a newbie...” She trailed off mid-sentence, as if suddenly thinking of something. Zhu Yao’s eyes immediately widened. “Why don’t I introduce you to someone? He would definitely know!”
“Who is he?”
“The manager of the plane where I came from.” Zhu Yao quickly tapped on the screen in front of her and tried to call that other manager. She made three calls, but the other party rejected all three calls. Zh Yao, however, was used to this by now. She attempted to reach the manager for the fourth time.
Immediately, a man appeared on the screen in front of her. He looked ferocious – like he would eat her up any moment. He shouted, “Are you courting death?”
