The new policies were to first lift all seals, continue to restore the Ascension channels of the Starry Land, allowing all cultivators who met the requirements, regardless of whether they originally belonged to the Vast Land or the Chaos Land, to choose to ascend.
An Arbitration Court was also established, with representatives from all the God, Immortal, Human, Demon, Devil, and Underworld races. For major events, a joint vote would be held.
Furthermore, a part of the Chaos Land with the harshest conditions was converted into a prison, where truly heinous cultivators were incarcerated. These prisoners included criminals from the Chaos Land, the Vast Land, and the Starry Land.
The living conditions there were harsh, with scarce spiritual energy. They were made to engage in construction and reforestation, working off their crimes with labor and enduring immense hardship.
Now, everyone knew that these policies were primarily proposed by a great figure of the Demon race, Bai Qiushui (Xiao Wenqiang). Since then, cultivators who had gained sufficient spiritual energy were deeply grateful and looked up to her as an idol. However, the criminals hated her to the bone but were powerless. Of course, she cared none of this!
"Qiushui, are you sure you won't come and settle in the Starry Land with us? The spiritual energy there is truly super abundant!" Mao Peilan hugged her, reluctant to part.
"I plan to travel around and see the sights. I'll come find you when I reach the Starry Land!" Bai Qiushui (Xiao Wenqiang) patted Mao Peilan's back.
"Stinky cat, don't cling to Qiushui all the time. She likes to wander. Your personality is different from hers, who is content to stay in one place." Jin Lang pulled the other party back, placing a hand on her shoulder and feigning annoyance. "It's me and you who are like-minded. I'll reluctantly accompany you to the Starry Land!"
"Stupid dog, who wants to go with you? Don't be so presumptuous!" Mao Peilan pushed his hand away, acting haughty.
"It's me, it's me... It's me who wants to go with you. Can I?" Jin Lang put his arm back on her, grinned, and then looked at Feng Qinghuai, "What about you? Where do you plan to settle?"
"Wherever Bai Bai goes, I go!" Feng Qinghuai's eyes locked onto the beloved woman, and a doting smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.
Everyone then looked at Bai Ruzhen. Before they could ask, she proactively said, "I also plan to travel around. There are so many places I haven't been to yet! But I won't go with you guys. A single snake can't handle it!" She grinned and pointed at Feng Qinghuai, Bai Qiushui (Xiao Wenqiang), and the two couples, Jin Lang and Mao Peilan.
They looked at each other and then burst into laughter.
Bai Qiushui (Xiao Wenqiang) looked into everyone's eyes, imprinting their faces deeply in her heart, and then, together with Feng Qinghuai, she set off to wander the world...
The surroundings shifted from black to white, and the system's cheerful voice rang out again. [Congratulations Wenqiang, you have completed another new mission. The customer satisfaction is also very high!]
Back in the familiar system space, Xiao Wenqiang was still a little dazed.
The mission of the original host, Bai Qiushui, had actually been completed when she began living a free and easy life wandering the world with Feng Qinghuai. However, she chose to use the energy of the soul artifact to extend this life a bit longer because the divine beast Egg Egg had not fully grown.
Since cultivators in Bai Qiushui's world had long lifespans, the extended lifespan translated to about eight thousand years in that world. She used this time to travel to many places with Feng Qinghuai, and they often meditated in scenic spots to cultivate and feed Egg Egg.
In the last hundred years of her life, Feng Qinghuai had already sensed something was amiss. Xiao Wenqiang didn't explicitly say she was dying, but how could someone as intelligent as him not notice her weakness!
Xiao Wenqiang closed her eyes again, and her memories returned to the moment Bai Qiushui was about to breathe her last.
"Bai Bai, you are so powerful, how could this happen? Did you get poisoned by something special? I'll take you to a spirit doctor, we can definitely save you!" Feng Qinghuai could not believe it, tears streaming down his face.
Bai Qiushui (Xiao Wenqiang) touched his face and said weakly, "Qinghuai, it's useless... No one knows my physical condition better than I do. My time is coming... You must live well after I'm gone, and do many good deeds..."
In this novel world of "Peach Blossom Bloom," Xiao Wenqiang's last impression was of Feng Qinghuai's face contorted in grief. She couldn't help but wipe away her own tears, and suddenly a voice echoed in her spiritual consciousness, "Mama, Egg Egg is still here with you, don't be sad!"
Hearing Egg Egg's voice, Xiao Wenqiang suddenly opened her eyes, looking around but couldn't see it.
[Wenqiang, are you looking for something?] Number 86365 saw her looking around and also glanced, finding nothing.
"No, I was just checking if the system space had changed since I've been gone for so long." Xiao Wenqiang, knowing the system couldn't see, deliberately changed the subject. Internally, she said to Egg Egg, "Egg Egg, did you really follow my soul out? Hide yourself well so the system doesn't find you."
"Okay, Mama, Egg Egg will protect you forever! It's just that there's no spiritual energy here, so I need to sleep to reduce consumption. Mama, call Egg Egg when you need me, and Egg Egg will wake up immediately."
[The system space won't change. Anything you need must be purchased with points and from the system mall!]
Number 86365 and Egg Egg answered almost simultaneously.
Xiao Wenqiang quickly agreed to Egg Egg in her spiritual consciousness, and then asked the system, "86365, how many points do I have this time?"
[Reporting the latest news immediately.] The small orb of Number 86365 emitted white light, flickered three times, and then stopped, saying, [Wenqiang, this is your fourth perfectly completed mission. Additionally, Bai Qiushui was very satisfied with the later tragic fates of Jiao Long and Tao Yaoyao, so she gave you extra energy. After converting all of this into points, this mission has earned you 30,000 points.]
"Then I've paid off all the points I owe you, right? I remember I only had 30,000 points left." Xiao Wenqiang confirmed.
[Yes, Wenqiang. Congratulations on paying off everything. Any missions you complete after this will be pure income. However, if you want to redeem other things, you will still need the corresponding points!]
"As long as I don't owe anything, that's fine. I don't need anything else for now. Let's proceed to the next mission quickly!" Xiao Wenqiang felt a burden lifted from her shoulders. Moreover, with Egg Egg bound to her soul, she felt even more confident.
[Uh... Wenqiang, don't you need to rest? This mission took so long.]
"No need. Earning points is important. What kind of novel world is the next mission?" Xiao Wenqiang's spirit was renewed with vigor.
[Then please wait for me for a moment. The last mission was snatched. I'm still negotiating the final requirements with the original host for this mission.] Number 86365 had no choice but to tell the truth and then fell silent.
Just as Xiao Wenqiang was thinking of lying down for a bit, she heard the system's voice again. [Done, departing!]
Without giving her a chance to speak, it took Xiao Wenqiang to a new novel world...
