Another thought silently surfaced in his mind.

’If you don’t work hard...’

’Who’s going to earn those points for me?’

Fortunately, Leng Shuang naturally could not hear his inner thoughts.

Otherwise, all her touching emotions would probably freeze on the spot.

After standing up again, Leng Shuang looked at Su Mo quietly. A rare smile slowly appeared on her face.

"I feel fortunate, Master."

"The day I decided to assassinate you...was the best decision of my life."

"If not for that... I would never have met you."

"Nor received these blessings."

Su Mo’s lips twitched. "At least think before speaking."

Who describes attempted murder like a romantic encounter?

Only Leng Shuang could say such strange things with a calm face.

Leng Shuang herself also seemed to realise her wording sounded slightly odd.

A faint embarrassment flashed through her eyes briefly.

Before the atmosphere could become any stranger, Su Mo directly changed the topic.

"Get familiar with the system first."

"I’ll head back with Li Mei."

"After you finish... Make arrangements for Qian Lian and let her settle down properly."

"Leave it to me, Master." Leng Shuang nodded immediately.

Qian Lian suddenly jumped into the conversation excitedly.

"Master!"

"Your Little Lian also won’t disappoint you!"

"Just watch my performance!"

Her eyes practically sparkled.

At this moment, she already looked completely immersed in her future cultivation dreams.

Su Mo’s brows twitched, watching this fawning, eccentric girl. But he nodded nonetheless and encouraged her.

"Work hard."

"You’ll naturally receive rewards too."

The moment those words entered her ears, Qian Lian almost jumped up in excitement.

"Really?!"

She immediately attempted to rush toward Su Mo emotionally again.

*Bonk!*

She directly hit the invisible spiritual wall surrounding him.

"Ow..."

Qian Lian rubbed her forehead aggrievedly.

Meanwhile, Su Mo remained expressionless.

This girl had already ruined his jeans with her snot.

There was absolutely no way he would let her approach freely again.

Li Mei quietly watched the entire scene from Su Mo’s side. Then silently looked toward Qian Lian with pity once more.

This elder sister... really seemed mentally unwell.

Qian Lian, herself, completely ignored the rejection.

Instead, she looked toward Su Mo with sparkling eyes full of admiration.

"So amazing..."

"Master is even using invisible barriers casually..."

Seeing that dangerous fanatic look appear in her eyes again, Su Mo decisively chose to retreat.

Without another glance backwards, he carried Li Mei and immediately left the office.

Honestly, it almost looked like he was escaping.

"Master..." Qian Lian muttered emotionally.

While she stood there staring at the office door with sparkling eyes, completely immersed in her own cultivation fantasies, Leng Shuang’s cold, mocking voice suddenly sounded beside her.

"Alright, stop gawking. He has already left."

Qian Lian finally snapped out of her daze.

However, the excitement on her face still hadn’t faded even slightly.

Leng Shuang crossed her arms and looked at her speechlessly.

"Although I already knew you were shameless..."

"I still underestimated you, Lian."

"To think you could go to such lengths."

Her gaze became increasingly strange.

"It seems all those years of being a world-class hacker still didn’t make you arrogant at all."

Most top geniuses had pride.

Especially someone like Qian Lian, who stood at the peak of the hacking world.

Yet this woman, the moment she learned about the cultivation world. She immediately threw away all dignity without hesitation.

Qian Lian did not care about the mockery whatsoever.

Instead, she maintained that dazed expression while quietly asking:

"Shuang..."

"Tell me honestly."

"Do you think Master might actually be a god?"

Leng Shuang paused slightly.

Then subconsciously lowered her gaze toward the golden system interface still floating inside her vision.

Even now, it still felt unreal.

A faint smile unconsciously appeared on her face.

"Who knows..."

She spoke softly.

"We only need to know that he’s our master."

Qian Lian fell into thought briefly. Then, suddenly, her eyes lit up again.

"True..."

"But don’t you think—"

Her voice became increasingly excited.

"If Master is really some hidden god..."

"Then wouldn’t we become god maidens?"

"Isn’t that awesome?!"

Leng Shuang looked at her strangely. Then nodded lightly.

"Yeah. It is."

"Don’t be so perfunctory!"

Qian Lian immediately became dissatisfied. Then she quickly moved closer, excitedly.

"Tell me about your gift already!"

"Is it really like the systems from novels?"

"Are you the Chosen One now?"

"What kind of system is it?"

"What abilities does it have?"

"Can it make you fly instantly?"

"Can you summon divine beasts?"

"Can you live forever now?"

Her questions came out nonstop, like machine-gun fire.

Leng Shuang silently pressed her forehead.

"Stop talking for a moment."

"Let me check it first."

"Oh, right." Qian Lian immediately shut her mouth obediently.

However, the sparkling anticipation of her eyes became even brighter.

Meanwhile, Leng Shuang quietly focused on the system interface before her.

The first thing she saw was the Mission Board.

Three categories existed within it.

[Mission Categories:]

[Normal Missions:] Randomly generated according to daily work and responsibilities.

[Special Missions:] Difficult missions involving special rewards and rare opportunities.

[Event Missions:] Series-type missions triggered by special events and circumstances.

Leng Shuang immediately understood the rough structure.

The rewards clearly depended on mission difficulty and importance. That’s perfect for her, who used to work as a hitman. With her years of experience, she was already familiar with this kind of thing. Only the missions now might be more broader than during her interval as a hitman.

Soon, her gaze shifted toward the currently available tasks.
