Chapter 2934: Do you want to be happier?

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Moreover, Yu Rouzi’s advancement was just as rapid as Su Clan’s Sixteen, who had the assistance of Senior White Dragon and Fairy Susu.

Advancing quickly meant shorter intervals between her challenges with the “Three-Eyed Senior,” yielding high rewards.

And unlike penniless Song Shuhang, Yu Rouzi was the sole heir to the “Lingdie Island.” From the start, she could offer substantial stakes for her bets with the Three-Eyed Senior.

A good choice indeed.

“Yu Rouzi, after the New Year’s feast, I’ve got a gift for you too,” Song Shuhang said, revealing the “Scattering Wealth King’s Mark” on his hand. “Once the feast is over, I’ll team up with Senior White to conclude my final bet with the Three-Eyed Senior. After that, I’ll hand this mark over to you!”

“Thank you, Senior Song!” Yu Rouzi responded happily.

After putting away the gift for Yu Rouzi, Song Shuhang turned to look at Senior White—finally, the highlight of his New Year’s celebration had arrived!

He looked at Senior White expectantly.

Senior White looked confused.

Song Shuhang was shocked.

Did Senior White forget to prepare a New Year’s gift for me?

After being handed a stack of RMB by the generous Yellow Mountain Senior, Senior White was Song Shuhang’s last hope for comfort within the “Nine Provinces Number One Group.”

“Oh, right.” Senior White, holding Baby Sound Bamboo in his arms, reached into his pocket and pulled out a thin red envelope, handing it to Song Shuhang. “Happy New Year, Shuhang.”

A thin, paper envelope.

But since it was a New Year’s gift from Senior White, it was bound to be something extraordinary.

Song Shuhang believed that no matter how thin the envelope was, it had to be special.

“Can I open it now?” Song Shuhang asked cautiously.

“Go ahead,” Senior White nodded.

Carefully, Song Shuhang slid open the envelope—experience taught him to be gentle, as tearing it too quickly might damage the contents.

After opening it, Song Shuhang pulled out the paper inside.

[A New Year’s Gift for Shuhang: 100,000 Ninth-Level Spirit Stones.]

[Amount deducted from the owed balance.]

[Signed: Ah Bai]

[Date: January 24, 2020]

It was a handwritten note from Senior White, with beautiful calligraphy that matched his appearance.

More importantly, this piece of paper was worth a fortune!

Tears of joy welled up in Song Shuhang’s eyes.

Senior White was always so generous—even for something as small as New Year’s, he gifted 100,000 Ninth-Level Spirit Stones!

This was the most valuable New Year’s gift he had received.

“Are you happy?” Senior White asked.

“Very happy!” Song Shuhang replied, touched—how could he not be? He would carefully store this note in the deepest part of his Core World, treating it like a family heirloom. He couldn’t let anything happen to it—after all, it represented 100,000 Ninth-Level Spirit Stones!

“As long as you’re happy.” Senior White nodded in satisfaction.

Palace Master Chu’s single hair strand peeked at the note and almost choked with laughter—Senior White’s New Year’s gift was entirely unexpected.

“100,000 Ninth-Level Spirit Stones? He owes that much?” Phoenix Saber Master exclaimed in surprise. And it seemed like 100,000 Ninth-Level Spirit Stones were only part of the debt that Tyrant Song owed Senior White.

Senior Red Sky Sword: “Shuhang owes a lot—I’ve lost track of how much exactly.”

Song Shuhang quickly cast “Knife-Nurturing Technique” twenty times on Senior Red Sky Sword to stop it from making any more painful remarks.

“Come on, let’s go see Fairy Snowflake. I’ll hand over the captured Year Beast to her.” Senior White, still holding Baby Sound Bamboo, started toward the Core World.

After taking a few steps, Senior White suddenly squinted, turning back to Song Shuhang. “Want to be even happier?”

“I do,” Song Shuhang answered honestly.

“Then, these two things are for you.” Senior White extended his hand, revealing two small, orb-enclosed miniature fairylands.

This was a technique similar to the “Palm-Sized Buddha Realm.”

The first fairyland was the “Jade Pool Fairyland” that Senior White and Yu Rouzi had brought back.

The other was a small fragment, containing only a “storage palace” and a lake fairyland. It also bore the aura of the Ancient Heavenly Court—a fragment of the Heavenly Court.

This was the second gift Senior White had prepared for Song Shuhang.

“On our way back after retrieving the ‘Jade Pool Fairyland,’ Yu Rouzi and I discovered this Heavenly Court fragment… Yes, Yu Rouzi’s treasure chest from earlier was placed right beside this fragment,” Senior White explained.

Yu Rouzi added, “This Heavenly Court fragment was originally guarded by several Fourth-Level puppets and was well hidden. Since it belonged to someone, we didn’t plan on taking it. But just as we were about to leave, all the puppets exploded, their heads blowing off—it was pretty intense… The fragment became ownerless, so we brought it back.”

“Puppets? Exploding?” Song Shuhang was stunned.

And considering the timing of Senior White and Yu Rouzi’s return, coupled with his own experiences…

Could it be a coincidence?

“What a coincidence?” Palace Master Chu’s single hair strand commented.

“We were just about to rescue Joseph when Song Shuhang’s clone managed to destroy a puppeteer who had previously caused trouble for Song Shuhang—that guy was well-hidden and probably lucky enough to inherit some puppeteering legacy. He had puppet clones stationed in several locations across the heavens and the world. Afterward, Song Shuhang’s clone severed the puppeteer’s root, causing all his puppet clones to explode,” Stone Tablet Senior elaborated.

Yu Rouzi blinked. “So, it’s the same guy?”

She glanced at Senior White—he truly lived up to his reputation as a walking good-luck charm. Senior White’s luck was just inevitable.

“But this small fragment is locked,” Senior White said, picking out the fragment and handing it to Song Shuhang. “To open it, you’ll need a matching key. If you try to force it open, it will trigger the ‘defense mechanism,’ causing the entire fragment to explode and destroy all the treasures inside.”

Upon closer inspection, the Heavenly Court fragment, shrunk down by the “Palm-Sized Buddha Realm” technique, had a circular imprint at the entrance… it needed a specific key to unlock it.

Additionally, Song Shuhang vaguely sensed the presence of the Heavenly Emperor within the palace—could this be related to her, a part of her Heavenly Emperor’s Palace?

“A key?” Palace Master Chu’s single hair strand immediately pointed towards Joseph.

If she remembered correctly, the rough puppet that had captured Joseph earlier had been interrogating him about a “key disk.”

Song Shuhang also turned to his potential disciple.

Under the influence of Senior White’s luck, all the prerequisites seemed to be falling into place!

“Joseph, come take a look at this,” Song Shuhang called.

Joseph jogged over.

“Look at the small circular hole in front of the palace. Does it seem familiar? Do you recall anything that could fit perfectly inside?” Song Shuhang asked.

“Master, I’ve never played with models,” Joseph replied. He was a proper man!

Song Shuhang was speechless.

This is a “Palm-Sized Buddha Realm,” not a model!
