"Village Chief Handsome, the village is being rebuilt. Is there anything you need us to do?"
To accept a quest, you had to praise the Village Chief; this was the custom in Novice Village No. 88.
Zhang Pingfan looked at his quest list. Indeed, there was a task to rebuild the novice village, but there were no rewards for him.
"No, go look elsewhere!"
When Zhang Pingfan said no, it meant there was definitely no need. So the players didn't dare to ask any further questions. They all knew this Village Chief held grudges.
However, some players were unwilling to leave. After all, they had seen how powerful Dou Youyou was, and that was because Dou Youyou was the Village Chief's disciple.
"Village Chief, do you still need disciples?"
"That's right, Village Chief, do you still need disciples? I'm willing to become your disciple!"
"I'm willing too. I've been waiting here for you for a long time, Mr. Village Chief. You've finally come out!"
They all wanted to become Zhang Pingfan's disciples, but Zhang Pingfan currently had no quests for taking disciples, so he couldn't accept them.
"Not considering disciples for now!"
The players all looked disappointed, having witnessed Dou Youyou's might.
As long as one wasn't an idiot, they knew that aligning themselves with the Village Chief would definitely be beneficial.
Zhang Pingfan walked around the village and saw that the players were actively cooperating with NPCs to repair the village.
Zhang Pingfan was quite satisfied with this.
"System Sister, what's the next quest?"
"Ding! The host has not yet met the conditions to trigger a quest, so no quest is currently available."
"Damn it, where am I supposed to trigger a quest? Are you the system or am I the system? You're useless!"
"Ding! If you really want one, I can issue you a quest to kill a level 999 super boss. Do you want it?"
The system's tone changed when it said this.
Zhang Pingfan quickly shook his head. It was clearly that System Sister, who held grudges even more than him, and had a fiery temper.
"No, no, I was just kidding. You're busy, so I'll be going to eat now!"
"Ding! Watch what you say next time!"
"Understood, I'll definitely be careful next time!"
I don't know who the system is, but all I know is that Zhang Pingfan is very timid.
Zhang Pingfan took off his helmet and said fiercely.
"Damn system, don't let me catch you. I'll show you why flowers are so red!"
It was already approaching noon.
Zhang Pingfan took out the last pack of instant noodles from his box!
"That's all there is. Looks like I have to work harder to make money!"
Dou Youyou took off her helmet and took a deep breath.
A big face was staring intently at her, startling Dou Youyou.
"Ah!!! Sister, you're going to scare me to death!"
Dou Junwan said enviously, "Let me see if our family's female warrior is still the Youyou I know!"
"Oh, Sister, don't tease me. How can I be so powerful if it's not because of the cleaver my master gave me!"
Dou Junwan asked, "What are the attributes of that cleaver? It's all over the internet. Tell me quickly, I'm so curious! Is it a divine artifact like they say?"
Dou Youyou said, "I'm starving to death, can I eat first?"
"Don't rush. Aunt Wang is still cooking, it's still a long way off. Hurry up and tell me!"
"Oh, it's just a cleaver the Village Chief uses. There are no descriptions, and it's not a divine artifact. It's just very powerful when fighting monsters. I don't know why!"
"Powerful is an understatement, it's simply monstrous! And your body is really tough!"
Dou Youyou pinched her skin, looking displeased.
"It's very soft, okay? Where is it tough?"
"Hmph, playing dumb. Now that you're powerful, you dare to fool your sister, right?"
"No, no. Once I leave the novice village, I'll definitely introduce you to my master so he can take you as a disciple!"
Dou Junwan shook her head and said, "Are you sure you can return once you leave the novice area? The beta testers said that they can't return to the novice village. That means if you leave Novice Village No. 88, you'll never see your master again!"
"Ah, how can it be like this?"
Dou Junwan spread her hands in helplessness.
"It's no use, it's the rules. After all, it's a novice village!"
Dou Youyou was very worried. If this were true, then she wouldn't be able to become a disciple? Wouldn't she be unable to learn new skills in the future?
"I don't want this! If that's the case, won't this account be wasted! I'll never be able to learn skills again! Wuwu~"
Dou Junwan rolled her eyes at Dou Youyou.
"Oh, please. You're now known as the Goddess of War in mythology. Even if this account is wasted, you've had your moment of glory. Sister will probably never reach your current height. I'm too envious to complain, and you're here crying poor and being picky!"
Dou Junwan put on a look of disdain.
Just then, the butler arrived at the door of the two sisters' room.
"Young Madam, Second Young Madam, Young Master Ji Liu from the Ji family is here! He said he's looking for you both!"
Dou Junwan frowned and said, "Didn't I tell you to send him away if he came?"
"Young Madam, this time he refuses to leave no matter what. You should go out and see him."
Dou Youyou said, "Sister, let's go out. I'm really too hungry to stand it. If he insists on staying, we can't keep staying here, right?"
"Hmph, this persistent nuisance. He shouldn't be called Ji Liu, he should be called Ji Pi Gao Yao (like sticky plaster)!"
Dou Youyou covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Haha, Ji Pi Gao Yao. His name, Ji Liu, is funny enough. If you call him Ji Pi Gao Yao, will he still want to live?"
Dou Junwan: "He probably saw your combat video. Otherwise, this guy wouldn't be so eager to leave the game!"
"Why?" Dou Youyou was a little confused. What did her fame have to do with him?
"Let's go. I can't let my dear sister go hungry."
The two walked out of their second-floor room. On the spiral staircase, they saw Ji Liu sitting in the living room on the first floor.
As soon as Ji Liu saw Dou Junwan, the previously cold Ji Liu became as enthusiastic as a lapdog.
"Junwan, you're here. Do you know how happy I was when I saw Youyou's combat video online? So I rushed here to your house, wanting to share this joy with you!"
Dou Junwan didn't give him a good look and said coldly.
"This is Youyou's business, what does it have to do with you?"
"How can it have nothing to do with me? Youyou is now the newly acclaimed Goddess of War. As a good friend, it's natural for me to come here to congratulate her!"
Dou Junwan said, "Alright, we've heard your congratulations. You can go back now."
Ji Liu had no intention of leaving at all.
"What's the hurry? Isn't it time for dinner? As your future fiancé, isn't it okay for me to eat here?"
Dou Junwan's face contorted with anger.
"Shut up! You know you're the future fiancé, but our relationship hasn't even begun. I don't want to see you right now, so get lost!"
