Primordial Era: When a Good Guy Awakens a Morally Unethical System

Chapter 14, The Kind Guy Who Delivered Angry Points to Your Door

Jieyin immediately snatched the ginseng fruit from Hongyun's hand and gave Hongyun a provocative look.

Hongyun was so angry she laughed. How could such a scheming and shameless person like Jieyin be so childish as to show such behavior over a ginseng fruit? Even if he was ignorant, he shouldn't have acted like this!

Hongyun didn't pick any more ginseng fruits. Firstly, she still had some in her sleeve, and secondly, even if she picked them, she might not be able to eat them, since there were still those two dogs who would sniff out anything like them.

While watching the two of them wolf down their food, Hongyun kept thinking about how to earn more anger points. This kind of thing needs to be done slowly and steadily, not by squeezing them dry all at once.

It wasn't until Jieyin and Zhunti quickly ate two ginseng fruits and started sucking the juice from their fingers that Hongyun came up with a solution.

With a sincere expression, he said, "Fellow Daoists, there's no need to cherish this ginseng fruit so much. Although it contains a considerable amount of spiritual energy, it's of little use to us innate beings. Don't you two possess any innate spiritual treasures with similar spiritual energy?"

Where would Jieyin and Zhunti get their companion spiritual treasures? Even if they did, they couldn't compare to the Ginseng Fruit Tree, one of the Ten Great Innate Spiritual Roots. Hongyun knew this, which is why he chose to use a particularly annoying tactic from later generations, the one used by Versailles and his group.

Given Jieyin and Zhunti's greedy and petty nature, they would definitely be angry.

Sure enough, the system notification sound came.

Five hundred points, that's a lot!

Hongyun smiled with satisfaction, then pressed on, "Since I took human form, I have been cultivating on this mountain and have never been to the West. I wonder what the West is like, and how it compares to the East?"

"Beings that take human form in places with abundant spiritual energy tend to have stronger natural talents, and cultivation is smoother in places where immortal herbs and spiritual energy abound. May I ask what cultivation levels you two fellow Daoists have reached?"

[Ding! 500 Rage Points have been credited to your account!]

Zhen Yuanzi found Hongyun's words rather strange; who asks about cultivation level upon first meeting someone? However, despite the oddity, he didn't stop him. After all, Hongyun wasn't very bright, so it wasn't surprising that such a thing would happen. He'd consider those ginseng fruits as a gesture of hospitality from the host, asking for their understanding.

However, to avoid embarrassing Jieyin and Zhunti, Zhen Yuanzi offered another way out: "Hongyun, not everyone has an innate spiritual treasure. Don't assume that everyone has your luck."

"Not a single one?" Hongyun stared with innocent eyes.

"That's right. Judging from your tattered clothes, either you're practicing a different path from us, or you're starving."

[Ding! 1000 anger points have been credited to your account!]

Hongyun mentally gave a thumbs-up!

Jieyin and Zhunti exchanged a glance, then began to lament in unison, "Yes, our Western Paradise is extremely poor! Not only is our spiritual energy scarce, but we also have very few spiritual treasures. How can we compare to you two fellow Daoists? This spiritual fruit is nothing more than a casual gift to you two, but to my brother and me, it is a treasure we could never obtain!"

"How could I not get what I wanted? Didn't I just eat two by myself?" Hongyun tasted the sweetness and felt even more that the tongue was a wonderful thing.

These two were not the type to be easily refused. Zhunti said, "My brother and I shamelessly begged at your residence, and we only received two. Yet you two fellow Daoists seem completely indifferent to such priceless treasures. It's a pity that our Western spiritual energy is so scarce that even our cultivation has stagnated!"

Oh, isn't this just handing the message right to her again! Hongyun's inner demons were practically spinning in circles.
