When system cheat becomes rampant!-Chapter 476 - 3)
"Let’s put this reward away for now, we need to think about how to unseal the Dou Constellation first."
The Dou Constellation had originally unsealed two seals. During the last confrontation with Liu Shenghui, another two were unsealed, leaving three seals remaining.
The system items of Wei Tong naturally needed to be retained for future use, as they were for the early phase of orifice transforming and could not be wasted here.
Xiang Beifei had trapped the souls of Eternal Sleep and Keshi. In theory, he could just hand these two over to Dou Constellation, but after pondering for a moment, he ultimately decided against destroying their souls directly.
The two were from Su People. The Su People not only knew the secrets of Su Alliance’s covert operations, but they also had knowledge about the Unrestrained, making them useful to retain, perhaps to pry some secrets from them.
However, Xiang Beifei still planned to obtain the spiritual power crystals from Keshi and Eternal Sleep in the early stage of God Refining!
Though they only had their souls remaining, they still possessed a system interface and could still undertake system tasks in their soul state.
Unfortunately, even though Xiang Beifei had participated in Keshi’s system rewards, Xiaohei was unable to directly receive parcels without the other party actively spending system values.
As Xiao Sheng had mentioned before, the Su People are loyal to the alliance and only obey orders from Zhu Yiji, and would not divulge secrets even in death, so expecting them to willingly trade system values was definitely not feasible.
Therefore, Xiang Beifei decided to try another method.
—
The souls of Eternal Sleep and Keshi were quickly brought out by Xiaohei.
They were trapped in a blue bottle, like little sprites in a message bottle, and were furious when they were released.
"Don’t waste everyone’s time, it’s better for both of us," Eternal Sleep said fiercely, staring at Xiang Beifei.
"We won’t reveal anything," Keshi also said coldly.
"That’s quite manly," Xiang Beifei nodded slightly.
"To kill or to slash, as you wish. Enough of the nonsense!" Eternal Sleep said through gritted teeth.
Xiang Beifei contemplated for a moment and said, "Then I’ll take you to a place."
He left the cultivation space. There was no one in the dormitory, and Xiang Beifei didn’t care; he stepped out from the balcony and disappeared into the void.
Traversing the void!
This was a mode of movement known to most God Refining martial artists. The soul itself is born from nothingness, and to move instantly through the void, one relies on the power of the soul.
However, the distance that the soul can travel through the void is limited and highly consumes the soul, especially for those in the early stages of God Refining. If not absolutely necessary, most people would not choose this way of traveling.
Xiang Beifei’s current speed was about five kilometers per step, which wasn’t very fast, but it was adequate as he sped above the vast sea of people, feeling as if the entire earth was beneath his feet.
Shortly after, he stopped at the entrance of a neighborhood.
"Do you recognize this neighborhood?" Xiang Beifei asked Eternal Sleep.
"I don’t," Keshi replied calmly.
"You are from Liangzhou. Although you, as a Su Person, use code names to hide your identity, it doesn’t mean others can’t find out your information," Xiang Beifei said slowly as he looked at Keshi.
There was a flash of panic in Keshi’s eyes, but his expression remained unchanged. He still said, "Do you think the alliance doesn’t have protective measures for us Su People while we carry out missions outside?"
Su People also have families, but their families are closely protected. The alliance has special methods to safeguard the families of Su People. Those intent on investigation would not be able to find any information because they don’t even know the real names of Su People.
But Xiang Beifei calmly said, "Just with those UR-level protections?"
Keshi frowned and said, "That’s quite bold of you to think UR-level protection is a joke."
Xiang Beifei didn’t speak but instead looked around at the neighborhood entrance and then walked towards a nearby park.
It was the weekend, and many children were playing in the park.
A little girl with adorable pigtails was playing with sand in the sandbox. She seemed about three years old, lively and cute with baby fat on her clean little face, looking very endearing.
Keshi could no longer keep his composure upon seeing the little girl.
"You... how could you..."
Keshi looked at Xiang Beifei in disbelief. The little girl by his side had strong UR-level protection making it impossible for even acquaintances to associate anything related to Su People with her, yet Xiang Beifei— he had ignored that layer of protection.
He knew the little girl’s identity!
Xiang Beifei paid no mind to what Keshi was saying, instead walking up to the little girl and squatting down, asking, "Niuniu, what are you holding in your hand?"
The three-year-old girl, without any wariness, blinked her big eyes and happily waved a small toy, proudly saying, "This clay figure is Brother Beifei! I am also a little option!"
Ever since he became famous, many related products about Xiang Beifei had been designed by various toy manufacturers and were selling extremely well, although it seemed no one had considered paying him royalties.
"This toy does look quite like him!" Xiang Beifei laughed.
"Right! It really does! I really like Brother Beifei! Do you like Brother Beifei a lot too?" Niuniu naively asked.
"Me?" Xiang Beifei glanced at Keshi, whose soul was trembling in shock, then smiled and said, "Yes, I am also a part of the choices."
"As long as you say you like Brother Beifei, then we’ll be good friends!" Niuniu happily extended a pinky finger.
Beifei smiled and also extended a pinky finger, hooking it together with Niuniu’s.
"Let her go!" Keshi roared through clenched teeth.
Beifei ignored him, still earnestly saying to Niuniu, "Niuniu, when you’re outside, don’t trust strangers easily, even if he claims he is a choice, he might not be a good person. Little kids must learn to protect themselves."
Niuniu blinked her big eyes and said, "But I feel that big brother, you are not a bad person!"
"Me?"
Beifei gently touched Niuniu’s head and said, "Then tell me, if someone wants to frame Beifei for no reason, who could he be?"
Upon hearing this, Niuniu immediately became indignant, "Definitely a big villain! Brother Beifei is so brave, who would want to frame him without any reason?"
"Yes, who would want to frame him without any reason?"
Beifei muttered to himself as he stood up, glanced at the red-eyed Keshi, then left Niuniu and sat down on a nearby chair.
In the distance, a young woman was watching Niuniu. That was Niuniu’s mother, but she seemed unaware of Niuniu’s peculiarity, nor did she see him. Because in her eyes, Niuniu was still playing with sand, not talking to someone else.
"Your daughter is very cute, I didn’t even know she was my little fan." Beifei said.
Keshi trembled all over.
"She is still just a kid! If you have something against me, come at me, don’t involve family members! How could you target such an innocent child!" he said, clenching his fists in shock and anger.
Beifei glanced at him carelessly and said, "Before you came to kill me, did you ever think that I too am someone’s child? What have I done to deserve death that you had to send three God Refining stage people to kill me? You know the principle of sparing family, so why did you try to attack my grandfather while fighting with someone else? Your daughter is innocent; isn’t my grandfather innocent too?"
"I..."
Keshi was rendered speechless by Beifei’s words.
That day, when he and Xiao Sheng were fighting, they were at a standstill, so he swung his knife at the unconscious Xiang Qingde, trying to divert Xiao Sheng’s attention by attacking Qingde.
Beifei had never forgotten this incident.
After a long while, Keshi deflated like a pierced ball and pleaded, "Please... spare her! As long as you spare my daughter, you can kill me however you want, I won’t have any complaints, please..."
"I’m not as tasteless as you."
Beifei stretched lazily and glanced again at Niuniu playing. The child was adorable, and he couldn’t possibly harm such a naive little one, but he had to teach these two a lesson.
"I’m only telling you a principle, your family is your last line, and my family, is also my line! It’s better to leave some leeway in what you do!"
Beifei’s voice was very calm, yet it echoed in Keshi’s ears, making him involuntarily shiver.
"I’m sorry..." Keshi gritted his teeth and said.
He was a Su People, with his own duties, but he was also a father to a three-year-old child, and his job was too dangerous, always living on the edge. He had hoped to work a few more years and then retire to spend a peaceful life with his family.
However, circumstances were unpredictable.
When he fought with Unrestrained, he did so without reservations, as the alliance would protect his identity. Yet, he suddenly realized he had provoked someone far more frightening than Unrestrained!
This person had only awakened the system a year ago, yet his talent and methods exceeded many URs in the alliance!
He regretted provoking such a person without cause.
"Whatever you want to do, I will cooperate wherever possible, but there are many secrets I can’t disclose. We Su People have our own ways of behaving, and the possibility of leaking information is zero. I went to kill you just following orders. They told us you were Unrestrained and had to be eliminated; we just cooperated, that’s the truth. I’m not lying."
Keshi’s psychological defense was completely shattered by Beifei’s words. He wasn’t afraid of death, but there were things scarier than death, like his daughter, his family. Now he could only comply with this young man before him and disclosed all he could.
"You think I am Unrestrained?" Beifei asked.

Keshi shook his head in panic, "You don’t have the characteristics of Unrestrained."
They had been chasing Unrestrained for years and knew how to identify him, but Beifei clearly had nothing to do with Unrestrained.
"Good to know."
Beifei turned the breath soil in his hand into a sharp mud knife and swung it twice in front of Keshi, asking, "How do you like this knife?"
[Beifei showed you a sharp and rare mud knife, knife intent value +500]
"Good knife," Keshi said, surprised in his eyes.
He was a knife user; anything related to blades enhanced his strength. This knife, from his perspective, was quite powerful; just one look had increased his system value by 500 points!
