Treasure(2)

Qin Yue'er saw Qiao Yang go.

Qin Yue'er was surprised.

She started becoming more and more interested in Qiao Yang.

'With the knowledge I have, I know that there are some storage rings capable of storing living beings but they have too little space and are truly impossible to find....yet this 'Silversurfer' master has such a big storage space for living things!'

Qin Yue'er didn't know that the "living beings" she was thinking about were actually robots.

The robots were that realistic that even a cultivator who is in Qi Foundation Realm, intermediate(7) couldn't differentiate between humans and robots.

The thing is the higher the cultivator's realm is, the higher their 5 senses are heightened.

'After I go back, I will do my best to surely check his background. I have to know about him'

Qin Yue'er thought with determination and blushed so much her face looked like a tomato.

Oblivious to Qin Yue'er's thought, Qiao Yang had already run 20 km.

He was amazed that he wasn't even breathing heavily.

'So this is what nourishing the body means'

The excited Qiao Yang still continued to move forward.

The journey was a boring one.

There was no beast or human who had intercepted him.

Just when he was about to reach the destination, he saw a kid of about 7 or 8 years old looking lost.

The kid looked innocent with wavy brown hair, a small petite body, and big brown eyes.

When he saw the kid, he was confused as to why such a small kid was in a forest full of beasts.

But the message by the system shocked him:

[System has detected another system...Host, please extract the other system so this system will be upgraded...After this system upgrades, the advantages to host will also increase.]

Qiao Yang was shocked.

Who would have thought that the small kid in front of him was actually a system user?

Qiao Yang asked the system, 'Does that mean that the kid is also a transmigrator?'

[Affirmative, host]

The first thing Qiao Yang wanted to talk with the small kid about where the kid is from but he needed to act like he was a normal cultivator from this world.

Qiao Yang put on a confused look and approached the small kid.

"Hey kid, are you lost?"

The small kid turned Qiao Yang with a cute face.

Qiao Yang wasn't pitying the small kid, but just for show, he put a face indicating he was pitying the kid.

The small kid replied, "This daddy here is not lost. I am just here because I wanted to explore this area. Got a problem?!"

Qiao Yang, "..."

Qiao Yang was speechless.

'WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS GUY?!! This guy is just a mortal but acts so smug!! Does he really think he is some immortal?!!'

Qiao Yang's face darkened.

When the small kid saw this, he laughed internally.

'I know you are also someone who transmigrated here. So stop acting so stupidly. At least change your clothes and act.'

Qiao Yang was thinking why the small kid was acting so smugly when he remembered that he was not wearing the robes the cultivators wear in this world.

He cursed himself for it and promised himself that he would buy robes and always wear robes whenever someone was around.

"Yes, I got a problem", Qiao Yang said and released his aura of Qi Gathering realm-intermediate(8).

The small kid was only a mortal so under Qiao Yang's aura, he fell to the ground.

Qiao Yang started walking towards the frightened kid.

Although Qiao Yang's steps were light, the kid saw each step as heavy as Mt Tai.

After few seconds, Qiao Yang stood right in front of the kid.

Qiao Yang could instantly come in front of the kid but he wanted to scare the kid for his smug behaviour from before.

To the small kid, Qiao Yang looked like a demon wanting to slaughter him.

Qiao Yang asked the kid, "What is your name?"

The small kid replied, "L-L-Li B-B-Ba-Bao"

"Li Bao?"

Li Bao nodded with all his power.

Qiao Yang thought, 'Well it does suit him. He is a *treasure to me after all.'

'System how do I extract the system from Li Bao?'

[The host has to physically touch the boy and say extract]

Qiao Yang was stunned.

He thought he would have to do something hard but it was way too easy.

'Alright, easy for me'

Qiao Yang bent down and wrapped his fingers around Li Bao's wrist and said, "Li Bao, don't ever act smug before anyone. You might not know what will happen to you then."

Before Li Bao could ask what Qiao Yang meant...

"Extract"

[Extraction starting....1%...5%....25%.....75%.....100%....Extraction complete]

It took a few minutes but it was done.

Li Bao felt something leave from inside him and fainted whereas Qiao Yang felt some external force had entered his body.

[System will be upgraded when the host sleeps tonight...System advises the host to sleep somewhere safe]

'Alright'

Qiao Yang looked up and saw the orange sky.

Qiao Yang somehow knew that the sun was about to set so he told all his bots to wake him up if someone appears near him and kill the beasts who appear near him. He also told them to monitor secretly.

After that, Qiao Yang climbs one of the thick branches of a tree nearest to him.

He climbed so high that he could see a lot of trees around him and the orange rays of the sun set on the leaves with mountains in the background.

It was a beautiful and peaceful scene like a scene right out of a picture.

'Maybe this world isn't that bad'

Qiao Yang smiles.

He puts his back to the trunk of the tree, sits down, keeps his legs straight and crosses them.

He closes his eyes and sleeps when the system silently said:

[The host has slept....upgrade starting.....1%..2%...3%...4%...]
