The Merit Points Ledger appeared in Chen Xiaobei’s mind in the form of a giant glimmering picture book.

The book opened at Chen Xiaobei’s command and revealed a page that resembled an online shopping site.

Chen Xiaobei had seen it before so he knew what to expect.

“I want to exchange for a Good Luck Charm.” Chen Xiaobei thought.

Immediately, the page displayed the information and details about the Good Luck Charm.

[Good Luck Charm: Made by the G.o.d of Luck himself. Increases luck.]

[Exchange rate: 100,000 merit points for one piece.]

[Please select the amount to exchange!]

“F*ck! Sheng Gongpao! That a.s.shole! It was supposed to be 10,000 merit points for one piece! Thanks to him, I have to pay ten times the price!”

Chen Xiaobei was angry but had to fizz out the flames. Right now, even if it cost him an arm and a leg, he would have to swallow his dissatisfaction and suck it up.

He now understood how important Qi Yun was. Had his Qi Yun been in better condition, he would not have had to spend this gratuitous money.

Thankfully, he had an abundance of merit points. Spending that little bit would not do much harm.

Thinking about how frustrated Sheng Gongpao must be made Chen Xiaobei feel much better.

“I want to exchange my points for thirty pieces!” Chen Xiaobei thought.

Ding!

[Exchanging for thirty pieces of Good Luck Charm. The amount to be deducted is three million merit points. Confirm the exchange?]

Chen Xiaobei did not need to think twice. “Confirm!”

Shen Gongpao had used thirty Bad Luck Charms to curse Chen Xiaobei. It would only make sense that Chen Xiaobei needed at least thirty Good Luck Charms to counteract the bad effects and redeem his lost Qi Yun.

In fact, he might even need to exchange a lot more than that in order to turn his luck around and change the situation.

Ding!

[Three million merit points have been deducted in exchange for merit rewards.]

Ding!

[Your current total merit points are 32 million. You are 13 million merit points away from the next level.]

[Charm: 3,200,000; Luck: 3,200,000]

Ding ——Congratulations! You have received a merit reward’s Red Envelope! Thirty pieces of Good Luck Charms have been stored inside your Treasure Chest!]

“Withdraw!” Chen Xiaobei took out the yellow papers which burned on the spot at his instruction.

Qi Yun could neither be seen nor touched. Lady Nuwo had said that everything was connected and everything works according to fate!

These links, except for unusual circ.u.mstances, were closely related to a person’s luck.

When a person’s Qi Yun had reached a certain extent, all these connected dots would become evident and affect the person.

As the flames ate away at the charms, Chen Xiaobei’s Qi Yun began to rise slowly.

But there was no way for Chen Xiaobei to know how much.

He was ready to exchange for more Good Luck Charms.

The thing was, Chen Xiaobei’s Qi Yun had increased to a point where it was enough to change the situation.

Ding Ring Ring!

Chen Xiaobei was not in the mood to pick up any calls but he knew that Bai Linsu would not contact him unless it was something important.

After a moment’s hesitation, Chen Xiaobei decided to pick up the call.

“Sister Bai! What is it?” Chen Xiaobei asked.

“There’s big trouble!” Bai Linsu sounded nervous. “Wei Zhonglie has returned from Apocalypse Starfield and has brought a lot of powerful people with him from Heaven Dominating Faction!”

Green Hill’s Prince Regent, Wei Zhonglie!

Chen Xiaobei had fought with this man back in Green Hill Starfield and managed to inflict serious damage on him. Under the circ.u.mstances, Wei Zhonglie sacrificed his left arm and managed to escape.

It had been two months since.

During this period, Wei Zhonglie had returned to Heaven Dominating Faction to recuperate. His return did not surprise Chen Xiaobei.

But of all the times he could have returned, Wei Zhonglie had chosen to come back at this inopportune time.

Lin Xuanxin was still in danger – where would Chen Xiaobei find the time to confront Wei Zhonglie?

This was just one disaster after another.

Chen Xiaobei even began to wonder if the Good Luck Charm he had just used was actually a Bad Luck Charm in disguise.

“Sister Bai!” Chen Xiaobei said. “I have something even more urgent that I need to attend to here! It’s a matter of life and death! Could you just do what you can for the moment? I will come as soon as I can!”

“No! Listen to me!” Bai Linsu said. “Wei Zhonglie didn’t come for me. He’s bringing his people to the Northern Wilderness Starfield!”

“Northern Wilderness? Why?” Chen Xiaobei asked.

“Wei Zhonglie had not been idle these past two months. He had been busy using his contacts and network to find out about you! He managed to trace Shuang’er to the Northern Wilderness Starfield where she met you!”

Shuang’er was Bai Linsu’s disciple, Ling Hushuang.

Bai Linsu continued, “If I’m right, Wei Zhonglie is heading towards Silver Plume planet to take on your friends and family. No matter what, you have to get back there as soon as possible!”

“What?!” Chen Xiaobei’s face was now chalk-white. “Sister Bai, I have to go! I have to contact my family!”

“Alright, you’d better hurry! I’ll try to get there as quickly as I can!”

Chen Xiaobei hung up and dialed his mother’s number. Again, there was no signal, no connection.

He called Wenren Muyue, the Northern Wilderness Overlord, and Ning Yuchen… all to a frenzy of disconnected calls.

“Could Wei Zhonglie have reached the Northern Wilderness… and he’s already… capturing… maybe even killing…” Chen Xiaobei was mumbling to himself, his eyes wild with fear for his people’s safety.

This was not just adding hail to snow, it had turned into a blizzard!

If Liu Xuanxin was in danger, his family must be in danger too!

Chen Xiaobei could not cut himself in two! He had to choose saving one and giving up the other!

No matter what he decided, he would be torn with grief! The pain of his decision would haunt him for life!

No matter how strong he was, he would not be able to control the despair and devastation he was afflicted with!

He was on the verge of breaking down when a sudden thought popped into his mind, “I couldn’t get through to Liu Xuanxin either! No signal – like the others!

At this sudden insight, Chen Xiaobei began to feel a surge of hope.

He would find a way out of this impa.s.se!
