Chapter 8 Birds of a feather flock together
Ms. Qiu Ling looked quite satisfied and replied affirmatively, "What a handsome young man!
"Yan Zhao, sitting on the rooftop of the seventy-sixth branch of the Interstellar Sanctuary Library, saw this message and a sarcastic smile appeared on his lips.
He thought, "Now, this is probably the only thing he has left to show off.
"Only men without sufficient strength would have people focus on their appearance.He looked at the 99.
1% compatibility score between the two on the data, his finger tracing over Ms. Qiu Ling's name.
A glimmer of light seemed to appear in his grey-blue eyes.
"What kind of woman could have such a high compatibility score with him?
"And he was still the one with the lowest compatibility score among the three matches the System provided for Ms. Qiu Ling!
"Wu Yan, Shang Qi? Heh," he couldn't help but chuckle softly.
It seemed the other two were even more miserable than him.
"Geniuses falling into the mud, tsk, are they going to huddle together for warmth?
"Yan Zhao lazily replied, "If Ms. Qiu Ling likes him, then it is truly my honor.
"Back home, the Qiu Family members were all dizzy and went back to their beds to sleep.
According to their usual dream experience, they would wake up the moment they opened their eyes again.Ms. Qiu Ling chuckled softly and ignored them.
After washing up and changing into comfortable loungewear, she settled down to play with her light brain.When Mental Energy Cultivates to a certain level, it can condense into a physical form.
Therefore, when her Nascent Soul touched the Mental Energy testing stone, the displayed value was the highest Rank, SSS.Her high Mental Energy value made it normal for her to be matched with Geniuses.It was just that these three, with their exceptional talents but unfortunate Acquired luck, were left behind and occupied the top three spots on her matching list!
As long as they weren't missing limbs, weren't foolish, and had above-average looks, Ms. Qiu Ling was confident she could send them back to the Divine Altar.After three games of battling with her Little Follower and getting MVP in all of them, she finally covered her head and fell into a deep sleep.The Nascent Soul in Ms. Qiu Ling's Sea of Consciousness continued to work diligently, showing no signs of fatigue.By the time she opened her eyes the next day, it was already noon!
After washing up, she strolled to the dining room, where a note from Mother Qiu was left: "Ling Ling, I've kept the food warm in the microwave.Your father and brothers have gone to the trading market to deal with the spoils of this hunt.Yesterday, I saw a part-time job advertisement on the community bulletin board, so I'm going to check it out.
"Ms. Qiu Ling opened the square microwave, which contained two hard-boiled eggs, a plate of sandwiches, and a cup of goat milk.Most of the land on the Gulan Star Body was barren, and people were not good at breeding and planting.
Whether it was farmed poultry and livestock, or cultivated grains, fruits, vegetables, and medicinal herbs, the taste was very ordinary, so ordinary that it was like consuming nutrient solution, somewhat difficult to swallow, though it had a physical form.Ms. Qiu Ling ate an egg and a sandwich with a look of resignation, then quickly chugged the strongly gamy goat milk, immediately pouring herself a glass of water and gulping it down to suppress the nausea.After eating and drinking her fill, she stood in front of the spacious and bright floor-to-ceiling window, stretched her limbs, and after a little digestion, she reclined on a lazy sofa, opening her light brain to watch a movie.It was then that she saw a friend request from Wu Yan at around two in the morning: "Ms. Qiu Ling, I apologize, I was leading a mission just now and didn't see it.
I am Wu Yan."After Ms. Qiu Ling accepted the verification, she created a Family group, naming it: "Ling Tian Sect.
"Currently, there were only three members in the Family.Yan Zhao: Is everyone here?
Shall we have a video conference?Wu Yan: I just finished a mission and returned with my team.
I'm available anytime today.Ms. Qiu Ling: You decide, I'm flexible!
As soon as her message was sent, Yan Zhao initiated a holographic video call.This was the first time Ms. Qiu Ling had used this function since her Rebirth.
After she clicked "agree," two extremely handsome young men instantly appeared before her.Yan Zhao's silver-white hair and grey-blue eyes were very recognizable.
He was even more handsome than in the photos, dressed in a white shirt and dark blue pants, leaning against the windowsill.
The sunlight from outside the window cast a halo around him, perfectly complementing his title as Former Holy Son.
He possessed a saintly purity, as if he didn't belong to the mortal world, even more so than the male Cultivators Ms. Qiu Ling had seen!
However, Ms. Qiu Ling scrutinized him from head to toe, staring into his grey-blue eyes.
No one, after suffering a fall from grace, could continue to harbor complete goodwill towards this world.Tsk, she really wanted to tear off his disguise herself and see what interesting Soul lay beneath that clean facade.The other person, Wu Yan, had black hair and black eyes like her, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes.
His appearance was very stern and handsome, and he wore a dark blue military uniform that hugged his tall, upright, yet muscular physique.His expression was indifferent.
Even upon seeing his new wife and sworn brothers, there was not much fluctuation, as if this meeting was just one of the hundreds of thousands of ordinary tasks he performed.Ms. Qiu Ling tilted her head.
"This one resists any entanglement with the outside world!
"Holographic video intelligently captures and integrates based on each person's environment, making it seem as if the person on the other side is seamlessly in one's own room.Yan Zhao didn't expect Ms. Qiu Ling to be so beautiful.
Among all the people he had seen, she was the most beautiful.He chuckled and introduced himself again: "Hello, Ms. Qiu Ling, I am Yan Zhao.
I am currently at the seventy-sixth branch of the Interstellar Library, serving as its director.
"Wu Yan nodded to Ms. Qiu Ling: "Wu Yan, a Grand General of the Interstellar Empire, leading the Eighth Legion in collecting supplies.
"Ms. Qiu Ling pursed her lips and couldn't help but smile, pointing to herself: "Ms. Qiu Ling, the former Genius girl of the Qiu Family.
Originally A-Rank Mental Energy, it dropped to C-Rank.
During retesting, the System had a bug and mistakenly judged me as SSS-Rank Mental Energy.
"Upon hearing this, the two men fell silent.
Yan Zhao sighed, "Does this count as 'birds of a feather flock together'?
"Then he changed the subject: "Regardless of how things were before, now we are Family, and we should discuss our future way of life.For example, General Wu Yan, Mr. Shang Qi who is still in a coma, and I—should we move to a Celestial Body to live with Ms. Qiu Ling, or should Ms. Qiu Ling take turns visiting us?
The Interstellar Sanctuary libraries are on almost every Celestial Body, so I can request a transfer.Until Mr. Shang Qi regains consciousness, he should temporarily abide by our decisions.
"Wu Yan frowned slightly and explained indifferently: "Although I am not on the front lines now, the Eighth Legion's task of collecting supplies is quite arduous, affecting the entire Interstellar Empire's military supplies.The collection locations are not fixed, and I need to travel with the Legion, spending more than half the year away.
"Ms. Qiu Ling remembered that the addresses on the information of these three men were all top-tier Celestial Bodies/Planets in the Interstellar space, incomparable to the Gulan Star Body, a small, remote, harsh, and barren Celestial Body.She had not undergone Ascension, but now that she was living in the Interstellar space, it was as if she had Ascended, yet returned to her most humble beginnings.
"I'll go visit you first, and then we can discuss this matter," Ms. Qiu Ling was already eager to broaden her horizons.Wu Yan looked at her with deep eyes, a hint of apology: "I have ten days of leave.
However, traveling from Xingchao Star to the Gulan Star Body by flying shuttle takes three days, so I can't pick you up or drop you off.If you want to come visit, I can contact the Empire's diplomatic mission to the Federation.
They often escort Family members back and forth between the Empire and the Federation. "
