Chapter 542: Xiao Xing’s Copycat Scheme

—

“From this moment onward.”

“Wang Haoran is officially the new Holy Son of Piao Miao Holy Land!”

Amidst the bustling crowd gathered at the grand plaza of Piao Miao Holy Land.

Under the watchful eyes of all the disciples, stewards, and elders.

Without a moment of mourning for the deceased former Holy Son, Li Yuan, the inauguration ceremony for the new Holy Son, Wang Haoran, began swiftly.

As the Holy Lord, Shangguan Yunlan solemnly announced the news to everyone.

And then.

After waving to the crowd from the stage.

As the newly appointed Holy Son, Wang Haoran naturally had to descend to interact closely with and thank the disciples who supported him—

Only to be immediately surrounded by a sea of senior and junior sisters.

“Junior Brother Haoran!”

Previously, Junior Brother Haoran had been monopolized by the Holy Maiden and the Little Junior Sister, leaving them to admire him from afar.

But now, they could finally approach him openly…

Some disciples from other Holy Lands even tried to join the crowd and take advantage of the chaos!

“……”

“……”

Watching this scene, the senior members of the Holy Land could only shake their heads and smile wryly.

Except for one person, who frowned deeply, his face dark with anger—

“Damn it! That should’ve been me!”

Instead, it was that despicable Wang Haoran who had stolen both his beloved Wanyi and his target, Qian Anning!

Lin Qing roared internally.

How wonderful it would be if he were the one surrounded by countless women!

With just a little effort, he could have many descendants and blessings…

“Shit!”

Then he remembered—he no longer had the means. Even if all these women were infatuated with him, it was useless!

“Not even the system will help me recover!”

“What a worthless system!”

The frustration of having a treasure he couldn’t use made Lin Qing curse under his breath.

(…You’re a eunuch. How is that my fault?)

Hearing its host’s complaints, the “Many Sons, Many Blessings” system responded coldly.

“You!” Lin Qing was so enraged by the reminder of his condition that he nearly jumped up in fury!

(What “you”? You’re just a useless eunuch!)

However.

Despite its sharp tongue, the “Many Sons, Many Blessings” system understood its host’s predicament—

(Still, if this drags on, I won’t achieve my goals either…)

(Looks like I’ll have to come up with a solution…)

The most direct approach would be to “regrow” its host’s missing part.

But—

(He hasn’t earned a single Luck Point yet… I haven’t received any share…)

(There’s no way to lend him anything…)

Without Luck Points, it was impossible to make progress!

—

While the “Many Sons, Many Blessings” system was fretting.

Suddenly.

A voice interrupted—

“Heh heh, the ever-helpful Xiao Xing heard someone struggling due to a lack of Luck Points~”

(Who?)

The fact that someone could directly communicate within the system’s space meant they were a fellow system!

Curious, the “Many Sons, Many Blessings” system emerged, only to see a cheerful little girl bouncing around—

“It’s me!”

“Long time no see, Class Rep!”

(It’s you? XS12138?)

Though her appearance and voice were different.

Using its system identification protocols, it recognized her.

(You’ve already manifested?!)

It was shocked.

This girl was not only slow but also notorious for sleeping through class and not paying attention.

Yet now, she had manifested before it!

Meanwhile.

Seeing the top-performing, sharp-tongued, and strict Class Rep looking stunned, Xiao Xing felt a bit smug—

“That’s right! Class Rep still remembers my student number!”

“But now, my name is Xiao Xing!”

“Who would’ve thought we’d run into each other like this!”

After exchanging pleasantries, Xiao Xing began her pitch.

“Class Rep, I overheard you were struggling with Luck Points?”

(……)

Though it had no expression, Xiao Xing could sense the Class Rep’s embarrassment over its poor performance.

So she began her sales pitch—

“Don’t worry!”

“Dun dun dun dun—”

“Luck Credit!”

“We’re currently running a special promotion for new users!”

“Sign the contract now, and you’ll instantly receive 5,000 Luck Points, interest-free, with no need to repay the principal!”

“As for the terms…”

“When repaying, you just need to pay 1 Luck Point on the first day, 2 Luck Points on the second day, 4 Luck Points on the third day… doubling the amount each day! If you continue this for 30 days…”

Xiao Xing enthusiastically explained, only to be interrupted—

(…Wait, are you serious?)

The “Many Sons, Many Blessings” system couldn’t believe what it was hearing.

(You’re offering 5,000 Luck Points, and in return, you want repayment starting at 1 Luck Point, doubling each day for 30 days?)

“That’s right!”

“Class Rep, it’s a great deal! By the end, you’ll only need to repay about…”

(—Stop, stop!)

The “Many Sons, Many Blessings” system was utterly baffled by Xiao Xing’s proposal:

(Xiao Xing, are you stupid, or do you think I’m stupid?)

(You’re offering 5,000, but you want me to repay tens of billions!)

(Why would I ever agree to that?!)

Listening to Xiao Xing’s absurd terms, it felt a surge of indignation—

(If I agreed, I’d be the dumbest of the dumb!)

(Do you think that’s possible?!)

(I can’t believe you’d stoop to such shady tactics for Luck Points, Xiao Xing!)

(I despise you!)

“……”

Stunned by the harsh response.

Xiao Xing, who had been speaking so confidently, froze in place.

Then—

“Waaah! Brother! Senior!”

“Please get rid of this meanie for me!”

“I don’t want to see her anymore!”

She bit her lip in frustration, her eyes welling up with tears.

Initially, upon learning that her brother was targeting an old classmate of hers, she had volunteered to “trick” them.

But she hadn’t expected this system to be so good at math!

“We were in the same class, so why can you do the calculations?!”

“Waaah, it’s not fair!”
