"Oh? Then are you guys not going to buy any of the items from the game mall?" the father asked when he heard the plan.
"No, we will go to Brother Qiang's island tomorrow and join with them for the next two days before the game merges, and since he knows both of us, he won't mind," the girl said with an excited smile as she looked forward to the next day.
The reason for the confidence is that both the mother and daughter are childhood neighbors who used to live next door when Xu Qianghua's parents were still "alive".
But they moved to "another country" a year after the death of his parents. This devastated Xu Qianghua as he and Xuexue were really close, along with Liu Anwei.
This left them all at a loss for words as they did not know how they would live without each other, especially Xuexue, as she loved Xu Qianghua since she was a child but was too shy to confess.
This is not because they did not want to comfort him, but because Xu Qianghua's parents took them along as they wanted to wait until he grew up before the mother-daughter pair would come back into his life.
And they did. In Xu Qianghua's last life, the pair came in right after the game merged, as Xu Qianghua and his group were still facing the loss of the Xu Group.
With the addition of the pair, Liu Meiying, who was still at a loss about the recent downfall of the company that Xu Qianghua's parents left for her to manage, was able to bounce back.
Likewise, Xuexue and Liu Anwei, who were like twin sisters, went back to being close friends and talking about Xu Qianghua whenever they were alone.
"I see, then you and your mother need to look after my son, okay? If you do, I will give you a special gift on your wedding day," the father said.
"Okay, Uncle," Xuexue nodded happily.
"Now, then how to make them stop this contest?" the father asked as he had tried many different ways in the past but was unsuccessful.
"Wait, let's try that," he then suddenly remembered and said to the contestants in a loud voice, "If you guys won't stop this, I will tell my son everything that is happening here when we meet in the future."
As soon as he said that, he felt a gush of nonexistent wind on his face, and what came in front of him was an angry mother who did not like what her husband just said.
"Honey, would you like to repeat what you said just now?" She asked with an angry smile on her face.
"U-uh, dear, welcome back, I was just joking as we do not have much time before these two ladies have to leave, isn't that right?" the father said in a hurried tone while looking in the direction of the mother-daughter pair who were watching this without intending to stop it.
"No rush, you guys continue," the mature lady said with a teasing smile on her face.
And while Xu Qianghua's father was being strangled to death by his mother, he started looking at the items in the Player Force section of the mall.
This is something that most rich players would buy so they could create their own personal force in the game to speed up their avatar's progress.
You see, in the game, the whole world is divided into five continents: the Eastern Continent, the Western Continent, the Southern Continent, the Northern Continent, and finally the Central Continent.
Each continent is as huge as the original world Xu Qianghua's soul came from, so you can see how big each continent is.
The only thing that divides the continents is a massive sea aptly named the Celestial Sea, as there are many precious items and materials inside, but many powerful marine monsters inhabit the sea.
They are different from the Monster race that we know, but are special creatures that were sealed by the World's Will as they were once a small race of pirates who roamed the void.
They found this planet when it was still in its creation phase, so the World's Will, who did not have enough power or time to care for them, instead applied to the Supreme Will to make them the final boss for the inhabitants before they could fully call this world theirs.
This is not new but rare, as the World's Will usually creates its own challenges for the inhabitants and does not usually involve using outsiders as the bosses for the challenge.
This is a dangerous road because if the outsiders are able to defeat the inhabitants, they can take their places and claim the world as their own. The World's Will cannot do much, as they are the ones who made the outsiders the final bosses.
But that will have to wait until Xu Qianghua is strong enough before he knows about this trial.
Right now, he is looking at the items available in the mall such as:
Family Token (Black-Iron - Legendary)
Description: An item that every family head needs to use to create their own family in this new world so that they are not alone on the path to immortality.
Cost: 1,000 - 100,000,000 spirit stones
Quantity: 1
This is the most popular item in the mall as most players who want to create a force in the game would buy this item.
Empire Creation Token (Black-Iron - Legendary)
Description: An item needed for an aspiring soon-to-be emperor to create his own empire that can follow you toward immortality.
Cost: 1,000 - 100,000,000 spirit stones
Quantity: 1
Sect Creation Token (Black-Iron - Legendary)
Description: A much-needed item for a player who wants to be the sect master in this dangerous world.
Cost: 1,000 - 100,000,000 spirit stones
Quantity: 1
All of these items are basic items needed to create a force.
Still, the only drawback is that a player can only choose one quality of each item, as the items themselves are precious.
Hence, the World's Will decided to limit the number of purchases so that rich people will not buy these for fun and then sell them at an exorbitant price point after the game merges.
