In the mall.
Jiang Junyi walked into a highly recommended five-star computer store.
All the reviews uniformly praised it as "conscientious."
"Boss, I need a computer."
A head suddenly popped up from behind the counter, staring wide-eyed at Jiang Junyi.
Jiang Junyi wiped his face. Why did he run into him everywhere?!
"You... you have this skill too?" Jiang Junyi's expression was complex.
"Hehe, this humble one is not..."
"Humble your head!"
Jiang Junyi interrupted the second person: "Three top-spec computers. Deliver them to the Wan Family later."
He had expected it to be fast, but not this fast!
The second person sighed, "Understood, Young Master."
Damn it, today was a waste.
Jiang Junyi was about to leave, then turned back: "One more thing, find an empty room and convert it into an e-sports room."
"Understood!"
"One more thing! If I don't see results when I get back this afternoon, you're dead."
"Understood, Young Master!"
Rest for a bit, then take a loss.
After leaving, Jiang Junyi rushed to Xingluo Daycare Center without stopping.
Information about Wan Qingyun's legs needed to be relayed to the Black Palace.
At Xingluo Daycare Center, everyone in the Black Palace was busy with their own tasks.
Feng Liuliu was checking the drinks, and Liang Qiqi was eating snacks.
Aries was feeding the pigeons, and A Tiao was making a cake.
Virgo and Wang Hao were wiping tables together; everywhere they passed was dazzlingly clean.
Leo, this time, was not sleeping but intently looking at her phone.
Some chuunibyo-style, passionate anime was playing on her phone.
"Everything is fated. If you must blame someone, blame your destiny for being on the same boat as the God of Plagues."
Leo's eyes shone brightly, and she murmured, "If I change this, wouldn't it be... 'Everything is fated. If you must blame someone, blame your destiny for crossing paths with Leo.' Ho ho ho! Save, save."
Just then, a voice came from above Leo's head—
"All beings must look up to me; no one is an exception."
A strand of hair on Leo's head stood up, and she looked up: "Shadow! Damn it, have you updated your quotes again?!"
Jiang Junyi hung upside down from the chandelier, arms crossed, exuding an intense chuunibyo aura.
"Thud."
After landing, Jiang Junyi, with his arms crossed, said, "I received news that Lord Wan Qingyun's paralysis was intentionally caused."
At this moment, everyone in the Black Palace collectively turned their sharp gazes toward Jiang Junyi.
"Tell us," Virgo said coldly.
"His name is currently unknown, only that in the previous era, he alone was enough to stir up trouble."
"He stole Yaowang Valley's ultimate technique, the Soul Severing Lock, and Lord Wan Qingyun's legs were affected because of this."
"Known achievements include escaping the Dragon King Palace unscathed and being slightly superior in multiple encounters with Night Raven's bounties and the War God."
Jiang Junyi, arms crossed, scanned the crowd.
"Do any of you have any impressions?"
Virgo and the other Star Lords, including A Tiao, frowned in thought.
Many figures stirred up trouble in the previous era, but they had never heard of the things Shadow mentioned later.
After a while, everyone shook their heads.
Jiang Junyi frowned. It seemed those things were secretly done by that fated old man.
"At least we have a direction now. We just need to investigate based on these clues."
"There's no need to rush; the clues are a bit vague, and we can't force it for a while."
Everyone in the Black Palace nodded.
"Shadow? You're still alive too?" Aries spoke up then.
Jiang Junyi raised an eyebrow: "You're talking about my master. I am the new Shadow."
Aries frowned: "Then where is he?"
"He has already passed away."
Aries paused, then sighed: "Don't tarnish his name."
Jiang Junyi raised an eyebrow. Shadow wasn't a Star Lord, but he seemed very strong?
Virgo and Leo's mouths twitched slightly. They felt that the new Shadow seemed even more outrageous.
"The information has been delivered. I won't stay any longer; there are some things I still need to confirm."
With that, Jiang Junyi walked towards the door, but before he reached it, his figure transformed into a shadow and vanished.
Leo gritted her teeth. Damn it, why didn't Lord Wan Qingyun bestow such an ability upon me... So cool!
The departing Jiang Junyi suddenly appeared somewhere, looking around.
Where was this?
Putting on a show comes with a price.
His price was that his appearance location was very random.
"Hachihachi!"
Jiang Junyi suddenly heard movement at his feet. He looked down to see a yellow-headed, white-faced Great Xiao Tu Song looking up at him.
Xiao Tu Song tilted her head, her big eyes sparkling.
"Hey? I don't have any food, go on, shoo."
Jiang Junyi waved his hand and walked towards a certain spot.
After walking for a while...
"Hachihachi!"
Jiang Junyi suddenly turned around and found Xiao Tu Song still following him!
And, seeing him turn around, she obediently sat down where she was.
"Huh?"
Jiang Junyi became interested and picked up the Tuson by the scruff of her neck.
He instinctively checked if it was male or female first.
"Oh? It's a girl."
Xiao Tu Song covered her face with her paws, seemingly a bit shy.
"Look, I don't have any food. If you want to survive, you have to be self-reliant, hear me?"
"Hachihachi!"
"Tsk..."
Jiang Junyi put her down and took off running.
Xiao Tu Song, seeing this, chased after him relentlessly.
Jiang Junyi looked back, saw Xiao Tu Song chasing, and sped up again.
After several twists and turns, Jiang Junyi removed the Shadow Heart and stood at an alley entrance.
Surely he had shaken her off now?
Jiang Junyi oriented himself and called a car to return to the Wan Family...
Just as he arrived at the Wan Family gate, Jiang Junyi was about to open the door.
"Hachihachi!"
My goodness?!
Jiang Junyi looked incredulously at the side of the door—Xiao Tu Song?!
He picked up the Tuson: "What's your deal? You can recognize this place too?!"
"Woof!"
Xiao Tu Song barked, a slight curve appearing at the corner of her mouth.
"Hey, hey, hey! No, no, no!"
During the puppy stage, a dog's smile was too lethal.
"Even if you do this, I can't take you in..."
[Ding~ Detected host has encountered a key figure. Pure Love Points are required to learn detailed information!]
Jiang Junyi was startled, looking left and right. No one!
Then, his gaze gradually shifted to the panting Xiao Tu Song.
No way?
Brother, are you kidding me?
This dog is a key figure?!
"Come, come, let me see what's going on."
Jiang Junyi, still holding Xiao Tu Song, opened the file database—
[War God's Return (Part One)]: 10,000 Pure Love Points
Redeem!
"War God's Return (Part One)": This Xiao Tu Song is the War God's daughter. (That's all)
Jiang Junyi was expressionless. Suddenly, he raised the Tuson high, looking as if he wanted to smash her on the ground.
"Ugh..."
His hand stopped halfway down.
[Come on, dog system, come out, come on.]
[Ding... Host, how may I help you?]
[Ding your big daddy ding! I spent 10,000 Pure Love Points, and you give me one sentence?!]
[Well... the previous top-secret... wasn't it... three sentences for 30,000...]
[I!]
Jiang Junyi nearly choked.
[Phew—Speak properly. I'm not sure what I might do.]
[Ding~ Oh, alright! Because the host is about to interact with the War God, it's not in the file...]
Jiang Junyi sneered: [So you're taking the opportunity to fleece me?]
[No... not really? This system feels... the dog's identity is quite important...]
Jiang Junyi sighed, calming himself down.
Indeed, if he hadn't known, he might have overlooked her.
[Get lost quickly. I don't want to see you.]
[Ding~ Okay~ Host, keep it up~]
Jiang Junyi looked at the "hachihachi-ing" Xiao Tu Song: "Let's go, I'll take you back."
"Woof woof!"
Xiao Tu Song visibly brightened.
Jiang Junyi walked in, carrying the dog, still unable to help but complain:
"What kind of situation is this? The War God's daughter actually lives in a doghouse?!"
