Zhen Xiaoyu was lying on the sturdy wooden bed, her eyes shining as she looked at the bracelet that had returned to her wrist.
In the novel, the spatial bracelet Zhen Xiaoyu obtained contained spiritual spring water, a divine tool for farming!
With such a divine tool in hand and the system mall where she could exchange for all kinds of crop seedlings, why be a vicious female supporting character? Wouldn't it be great to just focus on farming?
Although the system setting of obtaining killing intent seemed quite suicidal, with such a huge reward at stake, so what if it was suicidal?
A man will risk his life for wealth, just as a bird will risk its life for food!
After playing with the spatial bracelet for a while, she murmured, "But how do I activate it?"
[Only after you drip your blood on it to recognize the owner can others use it, and that's only if the owner is dead.] A mechanical voice rang out in her mind.
Zhen Xiaoyu quickly got up from the bed. After rummaging through the room, she found an embroidery needle. She pricked her finger to get a drop of blood and quickly brought it to the bracelet.
When the drop of blood seeped into the bracelet, she faintly felt a connection.
"System, system. How do I check and use the spatial bracelet?" she immediately asked.
[You can check it by a mere thought. After touching an item, you can store it in the spatial bracelet by thinking about collecting it.]
Following the system's instructions, she thought about checking the space, and then she sensed a dark space. It didn't seem very large, and there was nothing inside.
"Where's my spiritual spring water? Didn't it have spiritual spring water?" Zhen Xiaoyu was extremely disappointed.
[You can upgrade the spatial bracelet and obtain the spiritual spring water once you obtain one thousand points of killing intent at once.]
The maximum killing - intent value of a single person was one hundred points. To obtain one thousand points of killing intent at once meant that she had to offend at least ten people to the point of them wanting her dead.
This was too suicidal!
Zhen Xiaoyu couldn't help but ask, "What kind of system are you exactly?"
[My full name is (The System of the Vicious Female Supporting Character Who Is Suicidal Every Day), abbreviated as the Suicidal System.]
Sure enough, it was a suicidal system...
"I'll just call you Xiaozuozuo from now on," Zhen Xiaoyu said.
The system didn't respond.
Zhen Xiaoyu stopped teasing the system and didn't study the empty spatial bracelet anymore. Instead, she closed her eyes and materialized the "System Mall Exchange Catalog" in her consciousness as she had done before.
This time, she could finally flip through it without any interruptions.
After flipping a few more pages, she saw some items that had nothing to do with seeds.
Good grief! This beauty pill actually cost one hundred points of killing intent. Why not just rob people?
However, women were naturally unable to resist beauty - enhancing products. She checked her killing - intent value. She still had four hundred and twenty points, which was enough!
Should she exchange for one and give it a try?
She hardly hesitated before exchanging for a beauty pill. Then she searched all over the bed for it. Finally, after asking the system, she found out that the exchanged items would directly enter the spatial bracelet.
She wasn't in a hurry to take the beauty pill. Her rationality told her that if she became extremely beautiful overnight after taking it, people would think she was a monster.
There were all kinds of strange items in the exchange catalog. It was obviously impossible to finish looking at them all at once. She casually flipped the exchange catalog to the last page, the page with the highest exchange value -
One could exchange for a return ticket with ninety - nine thousand nine hundred and ninety - nine points of killing intent.
Zhen Xiaoyu was shocked.
She actually had a chance to travel back!!!
"Xiaozuozuo, can I return the beauty pill to the system mall? I don't want it anymore!" she thought of the beauty pill she had just exchanged for with one hundred points of killing intent.
[Once the exchange is successful, it cannot be returned.] The system responded to her coldly.
Zhen Xiaoyu tossed and turned in regret and was extremely excited because of the words "return ticket". It was not until dawn that she finally fell asleep exhausted.
In the morning, she was awakened by a noisy crying sound.
She got out of bed, put on her cloth shoes, and staggered out of the door. She saw A Hua practicing with a stick in front of the house.
"Why is it so noisy outside?" she asked hoarsely.
"All the members of your Zhen family are here. They're mourning for Lord Fu," A Hua replied casually.
Zhen Xiaoyu frowned and said in confusion, "My father is just missing. No one has seen his body. Why are they mourning for him?"
"Since Shopkeeper Qian said that the villains chased him off the cliff, Lord Fu has absolutely no chance of survival. Miss, you should think it through. Everyone will die eventually. Maybe we won't even live as long as Lord Fu."
Zhen Xiaoyu glanced at A Hua faintly. Thinking that the old man was bearing all this alone, she lifted her feet and walked outside.
"Where are you going, Miss?"
"I have to go and take a look."
"Miss, you should wash up first. There's still sleep in your eyes. It's too embarrassing to go out looking so sloppy."
Zhen Xiaoyu: "..."
A Hua directly pulled her back into the room. Like taking care of a helpless invalid, she wiped Zhen Xiaoyu's face, combed her hair, helped her put on her outer clothes, and tidied her up before leading her to the front yard.
The front yard was full of people. Many teenagers were being forced by their parents to kneel on the ground.
"Old Master, my Fubao also has the character 'fu' in his name. He has such a good fate with Lord Fu. Let my Fubao wear mourning clothes for Lord Fu!"
"Pfft. Your Fubao can't even read a single character. How can he inherit Lord Fu's family business? My A Gui has been praised by the private - school teacher. Old Master, you should adopt my A Gui instead!"
"Pfft, pfft, pfft. Who doesn't know that your A Gui is a sickly child? If you adopt him to Lord Fu, will it be the young burying the old or the old burying the young..."
"How dare you curse my A Gui! I'll tear your mouth apart!"
The yard was in complete chaos.
Zhen Xiaoyu was stunned.
"Stop it all!" a thunderous shout rang out.
The people who were pushing and shoving in the yard seemed to have been pressed on the pause button and stopped.
But this silence was only temporary. When they saw Old Master Zhen coming out of the house, a fat woman shouted at the top of her voice, "Old Master, you have to stand up for me! I kindly wanted to adopt my well - educated A Gui to Lord Fu, but this son - of - a - bitch actually cursed my A Gui to have a short life..."
"You're the son - of - a - bitch. Your whole family is a bunch of son - of - a - bitches!"
"You..."
"Shut up!" Old Master Zhen scolded with a cold face. "If you keep on making noise, get out of here!"
"Lord Fu has always been kind to you. If it weren't for the silver he earned from doing business to help you, could you have such a peaceful life today? Now that Lord Fu's life or death is unknown, it's fine that you don't pray for him, but you actually wish for his death. Do you have any conscience?!"
Old Master Zhen leaned on his walking stick and looked at these clan members in front of him with disappointment on his face.
"Of course we hope that Lord Fu can come back alive. But Lord Fu rolled down the cliff and was chased by those villains. Even if he didn't fall to his death, he would be killed by the villains. We're just out of good intentions, wanting Lord Fu to know that he has a successor so that he can go in peace."
"Yes. Lord Fu only has two daughters. He always needs a son to hold up the family. Old Master also needs someone to take care of him in his old age and bury him after his death!"
"How about adopting my youngest son? When the two elder sisters get married in the future, the youngest son can carry them out of the door."
"Rubbish. Your youngest son is only five years old this year. By the time he can carry someone, the girls will be old maids. How can they get married?"
"Then adopt my second son. Adopting the eldest son is also okay. Anyway, I have many sons in my family."
"I pfft. Do only you have sons?"
The scene became noisy again.
Old Master Zhen looked at these shameless people, and his old face flushed with anger.
Suddenly, someone supported his trembling hand, and a hoarse voice came from beside his ear, "Grandpa, don't be angry. It's not worth getting sick over these people."
Old Master Zhen turned his head and saw his precious granddaughter. He slowly let out a puff of turbid air and said, "My dear, go back to your room. Don't let these people sully your eyes."
"No. I want to advance and retreat together with Grandpa!" Zhen Xiaoyu said firmly.
A faint smile finally appeared on Old Master Zhen's face. He patted Zhen Xiaoyu's hand, feeling quite gratified.
The next moment, he straightened his face, raised his walking stick, and knocked on the doorframe. After the quarreling clan members quieted down, he said, "I forgot to tell you that my granddaughter already has a son - in - law who will move into our family. You outsiders don't need to worry about taking care of me in my old age and burying me after my death."
The old master's words caused quite a stir in the crowd.
"A son - in - law who will move into the family? Who is it?"
"Why don't we know that someone is going to marry in?"
"Old Master, you're not kidding us, are you?"
Old Master Zhen squinted his eyes and turned to instruct A Hua beside him, "A Hua, go and invite your son - in - law out!"
A Hua was stunned for a moment. "Where do I have a son - in - law..."
"Cough, A Hua, have you forgotten that I promised to marry A Man last night in front of Grandpa?" Zhen Xiaoyu whispered.
"Oh, right. I'll go and invite the son - in - law out right away," A Hua reacted.
"I'll go with you," Zhen Xiaoyu said worriedly and quickly followed A Hua.
