Chapter 2953: Onlookers Absent?
All the resentment value he had collected since his debut had been poured into this progress bar, including even the badmouthing that Lan Bao'er usually gave him—all of it was here!
All of it combined, yet only one-tenth of the progress?
You see, in the later period, Jiangnan had tried every possible means to collect resentment value, provoking almost every race in the entire starry sky, and the resentment value he obtained was undoubtedly massive!
And yet it was only one-tenth?
Jiangnan finally understood what Li Bing meant by an astronomically huge amount of emotional power!
Even if one exhausted all the people of a starry sky world and farmed them wildly, it would only be one-tenth?
Moreover, with Jiangnan's current status and level, he could no longer get the various races to generate a large amount of resentment value for him.
To fill this progress bar in this starry sky was nothing short of a fantasy; who knew how long it would take, maybe until the Year of the Monkey and Month of the Horse?
But to bring Lan back, no matter how difficult, Jiangnan had to fill this progress bar.
If this starry sky wasn't enough, then go to other starry skies to do it. There were so many starry sky worlds; he didn't believe he couldn't collect enough resentment value.
Jiangnan wasn't afraid of difficult tasks; he was only afraid of having no solution.
But emotions were also a kind of power; he just didn't know if collecting resentment value in other starry sky worlds would break the balance or something...
If that didn't work, then he would become Cosmos and try again; there would always be a way.
Looking at the progress bar, Jiangnan slowly clenched his fist.
"Let me first ask those two big-eyed guys to see if it works."
Calling a Starry Sky Eye over wasn't that hard, right?
Without another word, Jiangnan directly activated Black Hole Devouring Star, transforming into a black hole, but no Starry Sky Eye appeared.
Unwilling to accept it, Jiangnan even manifested the Black Hole Heavenly Emperor form, running wildly through the starry sky, and even teleporting.
"Come on, come on! Quick, come watch the show! This time the pumpkin is not poisonous, won't dazzle your eyes, come quickly!"
However, Jiangnan called out for a long time, but still no Starry Sky Eye appeared.
Jiangnan's face darkened. Was it because he hadn't shown enough strength?
So Jiangnan directly started using big moves: things like the Cold Southern Wind, the Hyperdimensional Slash. Jiangnan even blew up an entire uninhabited galaxy, absorbed all the matter in the galaxy, unleashed a wave of Black Hole Jet, swallowed a whole bunch of black holes, and even performed a Blazar Variability.
He made a huge commotion, but those two Watchers just wouldn't come.
Jiangnan looked furious and frustrated:
(งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง "What's going on? I'm making such a racket and they still don't show up?"
And Jiangnan suddenly recalled that he hadn't seen the Watchers' shadows recently, had he? Logically, the stunt that Xiao Yeye pulled earlier was absolutely astonishing and unprecedented!
It could be considered a major event that influenced the direction of the starry sky. Xiao Yeye was also a Cosmos-level talent, no worse than himself, yet the Watchers still didn't come to watch the excitement...
"Could it be that those two big-eyed guys are busy watching drama in other starry sky worlds and have no time to bother with this side?"
"Hah, pfft! Ungrateful! How can other people's drama be as interesting as ours here? Is my collection of tricks not attractive enough?"
Jiangnan was a bit sulky, but since the Watchers wouldn't come out, he had no choice.
He could only wait until the next time They came out and seize the opportunity to ask for Their help.
Fortunately, the system item development time was relatively generous; Jiangnan could afford to wait...
Having no other choice, Jiangnan no longer dawdled and directly went to the Star Farming Clan's home star domain to find Qing Ke.
On the Shennong Star, in Qing Cong's experimental field.
There was Qing Ke wearing a sun hat, sitting under a huge rock at the edge of the field, and under her butt was precisely that small stool left by her grandfather.
At the moment, she was supervising the situation in the experimental field.
Actually, Qing Ke didn't need to wear a sun hat at all, because there was always a cloud lingering above her head, shielding her from the sunlight and preventing her from being scorched by the scorching sun.
Qing Ke put her hands on her hips and said seriously:
(ོ･ˇ～ˇ･) "Qing Cong! Farm properly, farm quickly! There's still half a planet's worth of land to plant! Quickly improve your abilities well!"
"These grown Sword Scallions will also need to be sent to Sister Li Bing's lab later!"
In the experimental field, Qing Cong was holding a hoe with both hands and frantically digging soil, raising so much dust that it was a rolling mass, even creating afterimages, directly digging long furrows.
Then she turned her head, constantly pulling at her two twin ponytails, and with a flash of spiritual light on her hands, she pulled out tender green scallion seedlings.
Then she buried them one by one into the ground, then turned back to fill the soil, planting row after row, her pretty face covered in dirt.
It was truly a case of facing the earth and turning her back to the sky!
Qing Cong was almost crying:
ᥬ(#꒦ິ﹏꒦ີ)᭄ "Sister Qing Ke! Can you let me rest a while? The entire experimental field of the Shennong Star, all for me to plant Sword Scallions? Are you two devils?"
"I, the esteemed Qing Cong Sword Saint, will be exhausted to death! Let me sleep a bit, just ten minutes!"
Qing Ke said sternly:
(ོ◦`~´◦) "You're young, the land hasn't been planted yet, how can you sleep? Quick, farm!"
Qing Cong was directly exhausted and fell to the ground:
_(ཀ﹏ཀ#」∠)_ "Then you could come help me too, right? I'm so tired, can you bear to stand idle on the side?"
Qing Ke's eyes darted away, and she pouted:
(ོ◔₃◔ิ) "Who... who's idle? I... I'm not busy polishing the small stool, am I?"
"Besides, the Sword Scallion is your lifebound spiritual plant; I can't plant it. Quick, farm!"
Qing Cong got up covered in dirt, transformed into a humanoid farming princess, and under the rolling dust, that was the passing youth of the Qing Cong girl~
And just then, Jiangnan suddenly appeared beside Qing Ke...
(ﾟꇴﾟ)ﾂ "Yo~ busy?"
As he spoke, he directly tossed Qing Ke a bottle of iced cola.
Qing Ke's eyes lit up:
(ོ❛ัꇴ❛ัོ) "Brother Jiangnan? You're here? That thing Sister Li Bing told me about..."
Jiangnan smiled brightly: "What's the rush? First, have a drink and rest~"
Then he looked at Qing Ke with eyes full of expectation.
Qing Ke didn't suspect anything; she had never drunk this before. A Blue Star specialty?
So she opened the can, tilted her head, and drank a few gulps.
Jiangnan's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
∑(°口°๑) Damn!
As expected of the Child of Destiny; even trying to earn some resentment value from her was difficult!
This bottle of cola had been shaken by Jiangnan all the way; opening it would definitely spray foam, and getting sprayed in the face was the least of it.
But when Qing Ke opened it, there wasn't even a bit of foam?
Damn it!
Earning resentment value is getting more and more difficult, huh?
(ོ⁼̴ꇴ⁼̴) "Hehe~ it's good, thank you, Nan Shen!"
Looking at Qing Ke's innocent smile, Jiangnan's conscience suddenly hurt.
Then he laughed: "Here~ the seeds of the Lucky Cherry Tree have been developed. Just plant it on top of your head and feed it with blood!"
"As the cherry tree grows and bears more and more cherries, your luck and misfortune will be absorbed and taken away by the Lucky Little Cherries, until you no longer have luck or misfortune upon you and become an ordinary person..."
Qing Ke was so excited she almost jumped up, and grabbed the seeds.
(°ꇴ°ོ) "It's already done so quickly? Finally! I can finally stop being the Child of Destiny!"
Jiangnan smiled: "I said before that I would solve it for you. But... have you really thought it through? Once it's planted, there's no going back."
Others would be eager to become the Child of Destiny, but Qing Ke had long been fed up with such a life.
Qing Ke nodded repeatedly: "I'm a person without much ambition, you know? Having luck upon you isn't entirely good. One careless moment can hurt friends around me; I can't even make a joke..."
"Besides... if this continues, I will eventually have a big misfortune. I have already enjoyed the world's favor and a life that others envy. Let me choose my own life from now on."
Jiangnan couldn't help but smile and patted Qing Ke's head: "That's good. Even if you become an ordinary person, no one will be able to hurt you. I'm here."
Qing Ke giggled: "How do I plant this? On top of my head?"
Jiangnan's eyes were full of mischief:
(￢̫￢) "This is simple!"
As he spoke, he directly pulled out the small stool from under Qing Ke's butt and swung it straight at the top of her head.
But before he could strike, the entire Shennong Star suddenly changed dramatically, and a sense of danger surged into his heart.
Jiangnan's movements abruptly froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched:
(•́﹏•̀٥)۶╧╧ "You... you'd better do it. I don't want to have bad luck!"
She still had luck protecting her; if he hit her with this stool, who knew how much bad luck he would incur!
Qing Ke smiled bitterly: "See? It's always like this. I'll do it..."
Qing Ke took the small stool and directly gave herself a knock on the top of her head, opening a small wound. It hurt so much that her eyes turned red.
Qing Ke quickly buried the cherry tree seeds into the top of her head.
The next moment, a tender little sapling grew out from the top of her head.
Qing Ke felt that her luck was gradually decreasing, and correspondingly, more misfortune was also being silently drained away.
This was something she had never felt in her daily life.
Qing Ke's eyes were full of excitement. She grabbed Jiangnan's hand and jumped up happily.
(ོᵒ̴̶̷̥́ꇴᵒ̴̶̷̣̥̀) "It works! It really works! This is great! Nan Shen, since you rarely come to our home, let me show you around. Some places are really beautiful!"
Extremely delighted, Qing Ke dragged Jiangnan off to tour the Shennong Star Domain.
Leaving only Qing Cong, crying while digging and farming.
ᥬ(#´༎ຶ⌂༎ຶ`)᭄ "Wu~ I should be underground, not in the field... no no! Can't sing this!"
"Cough! Ah~ la sao sao~ da li di la di di~"
"La da li geng li sao~ ding dang mao~"
"Na li baba~ da li da li... wu~"
Not only did she have to farm, but she also had to sing and dance for these sword scallions, cultivating their musical cells from a young age...
And in the Star Farming Clan, Qing Cong was not the only one who had become busy like this!
After all, the Star Farming Clan was a major source of system items, right?
Over here, Jiangnan was being taken by Qing Ke to tour the Star Farming Clan.
Meanwhile, at the Finality City, the Silicon race sought out Jiang Fan.
They had important matters to discuss.
