Chapter 54: Unstoppable Momentum, the Chat Group Administrator
"It's fine."
Su Yan controlled his martial soul and replied calmly, "It's our first time cultivating a Martial Soul Fusion Skill. Of course I'll be careful."
"We're starting."
"Mm."
"Second Martial Soul—Kunpeng Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Unstoppable Momentum!"
"Hell Spirit Martial Soul Fusion Skill—Blood-stained Battlefield."
"Second Martial Soul—Kunpeng Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Unstoppable Momentum!"
"Hell Spirit Martial Soul Fusion Skill—Falling Flowers Flowing Water."
"Second Martial Soul—Kunpeng Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Unstoppable Momentum!"
"Hell Spirit Martial Soul Fusion Skill—Welling Spring of Retribution."
"Second Martial Soul—Kunpeng Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Unstoppable Momentum!"
"Hell Spirit Martial Soul Fusion Skill—Flooding… Seven Armies."
...
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: I'm so mad!!]
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Aaaaahhhhh!!!!]
[Everyone: ???]
Zhu Zhuqing: Why are you screaming on my behalf?
Next Room.
Ning Rongrong pressed her ear stubbornly against the wall, eavesdropping for ages, yet hearing absolutely nothing. Unable to accept it, she vented her frustrations wildly in the chat group.
Xiao Wu and the Little Monkey gnawed on carrots beside her, helpless.
"Rongrong, stop listening. Su Yan definitely isn't doing anything proper there."
"You see? He doesn't even want the Little Monkey anymore."
Little Monkey: ???
[Yan Zi is Not Swallow: Little Princess, what happened to you? Why are you so triggered?]
[Hu Liena: You just can't handle it, girl!]
[Bibi Dong: Don't give up. This Pope believes in you.]
Ning Rongrong was about to respond, but suddenly—
A system notification appeared in the chat group.
["Cat in the Shadows" has been promoted to Administrator. Each group upgrade will now add an Administrator-exclusive reward.]
[Everyone: ???]
[Carrot Lover: Meaning what??]
[Yan Zi is Not Swallow: I don't know! Looks like the administrator gets an extra reward. Wait! She's the only administrator, so the reward will definitely go to her!]
[Group Member No.9: Huh??]
[I Am an Orphan: No, we're all sisters in the chat group, Kitty, why did you suddenly get promoted?]
[The Moon of My Childhood: How did you do it??]
[Liu Erlong: Kitty, come out immediately and explain yourself!]
[Bibi Dong: Su Yan, why did someone suddenly become an administrator?!]
This time, Ning Rongrong was truly crying.
Others didn't understand.
But she did.
Administrator?
That was clearly the group leader's wife!
She had known Su Yan earlier— yet Zhu Zhuqing had snatched the position first?!
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Waaaahhh… Brother Su Yan, I don't want to live anymore! Why isn't it me? Why isn't it me?!]
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Wuuuu…]
[Yan Zi is Not Swallow: I'm lost. Su Yan, get out here and explain!]
[Group Member No.9: Su Yan, you… You lied! You said you hadn't met Kitty. You two must've done something!]
[I Am an Orphan: This is too much. You secretly did things behind our backs?!]
[Carrot Lover: Excuse me—how do we apply to become an administrator?]
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Wuuuu…]
Meanwhile—
It was already past the third watch of the night. Group messages flew nonstop like fireworks.
But Su Yan and Zhu Zhuqing were still hugging at zero distance, completely unbothered by the chaos exploding in the chat group.
Zhu Zhuqing whispered with guilt:
"Su Yan… am I too useless? When we cultivate the Fusion Skill together, I can only last for such a short time."
Su Yan smiled.
"Silly girl."
"You're only just starting to learn the Fusion Skill. Of course, you're not used to it yet. You'll definitely improve later."
Zhu Zhuqing lowered her head, guilt deepening.
"But… I don't want to ruin your cultivation experience. I don't want to slow down your progress."
Su Yan withdrew his martial soul and said:
"Then let's switch to a different method of cultivating the Fusion Skill."
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Wuuuu…]
[I Am an Orphan: Little Princess, why are you crying nonstop?! Do you know something we don't?]
[Group Member No. 9: Something's wrong. With how things look right now, the Little Princess definitely knows what's going on. Little Princess, hurry up and tell us!]
[Bibi Dong: So, how exactly does one become an administrator?]
[Yan Zi is Not Swallow: Melon-melon-melon! Kitty, let me have a bite too!]
[Liu Erlong: This is maddening. Can everyone please act like normal group members for once?]
[The Moon of My Childhood: Su Yan and Kitty were acting strange. They were lurking the whole night yesterday, and today they're lurking all night again.]
Next door.
Xiao Wu watched Ning Rongrong sobbing her heart out. The girl looked so lost and confused that Xiao Wu couldn't help but try to comfort her.
"Rongrong… you really don't need to be this heartbroken, do you?"
But Ning Rongrong was devastated.
"Xiao Wu, you still don't get it?"
"Zhu Zhuqing… she became a chat group administrator!"
"Which means Zhu Zhuqing became the group leader's wife! I clearly met Su Yan first, so how did their relationship progress so fast?!"
"Wuuuu…"
"Huh?"
Xiao Wu was stunned.
"Good heavens…"
"So that's what this is about? No wonder there was suddenly an administrator… Turns out it actually means 'group leader's wife'!"
"Wait, wait—"
"If anything, I should've met Su Yan first. I've been Su Yan's classmate for six full years! Look, Little Monkey is my best friend!"
"Pft—!"
Ning Rongrong, who had been crying miserably, suddenly burst into laughter. Xiao Wu's words were just too silly.
"Xiao Wu, promise me something."
"From now on, eat more walnuts and more fish. They're really good for the brain."
"Six years! You guarded a treasure for six whole years, yet you couldn't match Zhu Zhuqing's one day. If I didn't tell you, you still wouldn't even know Su Yan's true identity."
Xiao Wu slumped in defeat.
"Am… am I really that dumb?"
"No."
"I still have Little Monkey. Little Monkey, we're best friends, aren't we?"
Little Monkey nodded vigorously.
Ning Rongrong once again couldn't help laughing at Xiao Wu's innocence.
"Tell me, which is more important—being the mistress or being a good friend?"
Xiao Wu: ???
[Carrot Lover: Wuuuuu…]
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Wuuuuu…]
[Administrator "Cat in the Shadows" has muted "Seven Treasures Little Princess" (5 minutes).]
[Administrator "Cat in the Shadows" has muted "Carrot Lover" (5 minutes).]
[Cat in the Shadows: No crying allowed!]
[Everyone: ???]
Seriously?
Next door.
Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu were completely dumbfounded.
They tried typing in the chat group and realized—they were actually muted.
She ate your food.
She got promoted.
She claimed all the benefits.
And now she won't even let you cry?
Too much!
The two clenched their fists in anger and slammed them against the wall with two loud thuds, shouting furiously:
"Zhu Zhuqing!"
"You've gone too far!"
Inside the room.
Zhu Zhuqing was using her greatest advantage to help Su Yan cultivate their Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
For her…
Today was the happiest day of her entire life.
Crying? Why cry?
Everything was wonderful.
Su Yan was wonderful.
Being an administrator was wonderful.
Feeling joyful, Zhu Zhuqing threw herself even harder into assisting Su Yan's cultivation. She even went as far as to directly swallow Su Yan's second martial soul.
And Su Yan's power surged forward once again—unstoppable as ever!
