My Wife Is The Final Boss - Chapter 8

Chapter 8: The System’s Survival Instinct

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the past, Xu Chang’an despised the system for being useless… But once he realized that the system had worked, Xu Chang’an’s attitude changed drastically.

Although he did not completely trust the system, he did not need to exercise caution before he was strong enough. The best solution now was to enjoy the benefits given to him by the system.

Now that he thought about it, the name was, Heavenly Dao System, was very impressive.

When Xu Chang’an discovered that the system could send items to him out of thin air, he thought that since the system’s function had returned to normal, the Heavenly Dao points that had completely overflowed would not be taken back.

Perhaps they would be confiscated or even given a title during a “version update”.

Therefore, Xu Changan wanted to see if he could get the system to update something while the points were still there… After all, if there were no bugs, he might not even have a million Heavenly Dao points in his life.

“System, when is the next update to the mall?” Xu Changan couldn’t help but ask.

“Please wait patiently,” the system said emotionlessly.

“You can give me some missions.”

“Host, please wait patiently.”

“…Alright.” Xu Chang’an sighed. “My golden finger… Although it came a little late, it still came.”

If they didn’t come, they would all come.

He really had nothing to say.

After a moment of silence, Xu Chang’an finally couldn’t help but smile.

He was still too weak now, so he only needed to look at the immediate benefits. After all, the most important thing now was to become stronger and give his wife a better life and sense of security.

“I’m going home.” Xu Chang’an’s footsteps were relaxed, and his sleeves were fluttering.

He had told his wife in the morning that he would not be back for three months. She would be happy if he went back now.

“…”

Xu Chang’an’s house was sometimes very quiet.

The weather was beautiful today. The sun was warm and shone brightly.

The courtyard was empty and covered in grass. Yun Qian, who was dressed in a simple embroidered robe, walked out of the house with a book and lay on a bamboo chair in the courtyard.

The book was filled with neat and slightly inexperienced handwriting.

That was a novel that Xu Chang’an had written for her to kill time when he was on the island. In Xu Chang’an’s words, it was like practicing calligraphy.

Most of the time, life wasn’t full of passion.

Yun Qian lay on the chair and gently turned around to avoid the sunlight that shone on her. Her graceful figure was revealed. Unfortunately, all she could see was the weeds in the courtyard.

After Yun Qian lay down, her cold face moved slightly.

She actually didn’t do anything. The so-called reward was the result of the system on Xu Chang’an operating on its own. She just let go of the suppression of the system.

Yun Qian did not know much about Dharma treasures and cultivation techniques, so she could only let the system do this.

Fortunately, Xu Chang’an liked it very much.

If he didn’t like it, Yun Qian was prepared to completely erase the system. After all… Xu Chang’an had clearly expressed his disgust for the system for the first time this morning.

Heavenly Dao?

Yun Qian felt that it was quite interesting that she had asked her husband for help.

The girl leaned back and reached out her hand, letting the warm light pass through her fingers. She narrowed her eyes and smiled.

Because she had to read, it couldn’t rain, so a slanted cloud floated above Yun Qian’s hand, creating a comfortable shade for her.

Yun Qian narrowed her eyes, a long thought coming from her body.

“Ha-ha…”

She moaned softly and stretched her back.

She was a little tired.

This body was indeed too weak.

She opened the book in her hand and read the story.

She actually didn’t like listening to stories. Even though she had never heard of the story written by Xu Chang’an, she still felt bored. To Yun Qian… Instead of reading the story written in the book, she was reading Xu Changan’s handwriting.

She read for a while. Then she covered her face with the book and smelled the faint fragrance of ink.

Back then, Xu Chang’an wanted to see the outside world, so she chose to bring him away from the island.

But was cultivation such a good thing? Was it worth it for him to be so happy?

Yun Qian didn’t understand, but when she thought of how happy Xu Chang’an was, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

It was good to have something to be happy about, so she would let the youth do whatever he wanted and try not to disturb him.

“Yes?”

Yun Qian was slightly suspicious, and a trace of dissatisfaction flashed across her eyes. As a result, the wind in the entire world suddenly changed.

Time seemed to have stopped. The wind did not dare to intertwine, the water did not dare to flow, and the flowers did not dare to bloom. Only the coldness between Yun Qian’s eyebrows was exceptionally obvious.

A huge crisis enveloped the starry sky.

Time did not stand still. It was still passing.

Suddenly, a cool breeze blew past, fluttering the pages of the book. The fragrance of ink accompanied by the aura of a young man landed on Yun Qian’s face, gradually smoothing her eyebrows.

Yun Qian looked back. The coldness in her eyes dissipated a little. She changed into a comfortable position and continued reading the story in the book.

… .

At the same time, Xu Chang’an had already walked to the long street outside his house. He was not in a hurry to go home. Instead, he prepared to buy some gifts for Yun Qian.

Miss Yun only needed a bowl of noodles.

She was wearing the most ordinary clothes of the Pero residence.

She really did not have any hobbies.

Therefore, Xu Chang’an was very conflicted when choosing gifts for her. However, because Yun Qian would not express whether she liked anything he bought, so… Xu Chang’an would try to bring different gifts back every time.

“Why don’t I buy some wine?” Xu Chang’an felt that today was a good day and worth celebrating. He could have a drink with his wife.

As he was thinking, a gust of wind suddenly blew Xu Chang’an’s hair, causing him to be slightly stunned.

[Emergency mission issued. Please check it yourself.]

‘Emergency mission?’

Didn’t he just complete a mission to kill the green-eyed tiger?

As Xu Chang’an walked towards the restaurant, he narrowed his eyes to check the mission that the system had suddenly issued.

The system used the word urgent. It must be something important.

Xu Chang’an took a deep breath.

However, after seeing the mission conditions clearly, the corners of Xu Chang’an’s eyes twitched slightly. He wiped his eyes to confirm that he was not mistaken.

“What… is this?”

On the mission panel, the mission goal and reward were written.

Mission name: Work and rest.

Mission Objective: Spend half a day safely and relax to your heart’s content.

Mission deadline: Before midnight.

Mission Reward: According to the completion rate, the Heavenly Dao Mall will be updated and random items will be added.

Previously, when he asked the system when the mall could be updated, the other party kept saying to wait patiently. In the end, less than 15 minutes later, he was immediately issued with a mission.

A work-life balance? Are you sure you’re not joking?
