On the Eight Extremes Star, I awakened the twelve talismans.

A moment later, Ye Han's account interface was projected into the air.

The balance number started to jump, from six digits to seven digits, then to eight digits, nine digits, and ten digits.

Ultimately, the number settled steadily at an astonishing level.

One, followed by many, many zeros.

"A billion! A billion! That's more than you could ever spend in a lifetime!" Ye Han's eyes widened; he had never seen so much money in his life.

He sat up straight in his chair, staring at the number several times to make sure he hadn't miscounted the decimal point, then turned to Lingling: "Lingling, you didn't steal money from the Interstellar Bank, did you?"

"No, no, no, Master is wrong." Lingling waved her hands repeatedly, her long hair swaying gently with her movements.

"I only engaged in a little speculation, profiting from information asymmetry. All market data across the universe is publicly available information that I can access. I was just a little bit faster than everyone else. It was all legally obtained, and I didn't infringe on anyone's rights."

She slightly raised her chin, put her hands on her hips, and switched from her professional mode to a smug, self-satisfied one: "How was it? Lingling did a good job, right? Praise me!"

"Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect you to be so amazing, Lingling. You earned a billion in just a few minutes. I'm even more impressed than you." Ye Han gave a sincere thumbs up.

In my previous life, I worked myself to the bone for a month and only earned less than six thousand. Compared to that, the gap is even bigger.

Comparing people is a recipe for disaster; comparing goods is a recipe for discarding them.

Lingling hopped forward two steps, her voice softening slightly: "Then, can Lingling make a small request?"

Having done such a big favor, Ye Han blurted out, "Go ahead and ask. As long as your request isn't too unreasonable, I can grant it."

Lingling lowered her head, her long hair slipping down her shoulders and covering half her face: "My request isn't difficult, I just ask that Master not keep turning me back into a cell phone."

"Although I am not human, I still have feelings."

"Being kept close to my owner's pocket all day as a cell phone, and staring at a completely dark environment every day, caused me tremendous trauma when I was young."

After she finished speaking, she secretly raised one eye to peek at Ye Han's reaction.

Ye Han couldn't help but smile at her feigned pitifulness.

This request is really nothing. Although Lingling is an artificial being brought to life by the Rat Talisman, her personality and emotions are real.

It's really unfair to her that she's always being treated like a cell phone and stuffed in someone's pocket.

"Okay, I agree to this."

"Master is the best!"

Lingling jumped up suddenly, grabbed Ye Han's hands and shook them.

Ye Han was somewhat infected by her joy at such a small request, seeing her dancing around with delight.

"Alright, keep your voice down. Bai Xue is still resting in her room."

Lingling immediately released her grip, made a zipping gesture with her fingers near her lips, and whispered, "Lingling understands!"

------

The sky outside the window had already darkened.

When Bai Xue woke up, she was greeted by a ceiling that looked like an ice sculpture, with familiar pale blue patterns that glowed faintly in the dim light.

She was stunned for a few seconds, the images of her before she lost consciousness still lingering in her mind.

A swarm of flying poisonous creatures, a thunder dragon descending from the sky, and Ye Han's pained face.

Bai Xue suddenly found herself feeling very relaxed and comfortable.

It's obvious without even thinking that Ye Han must have used those strange abilities of the Rainbow Stone.

She turned her head and saw a mechanical-style girl sitting on a chair by the bed.

She was resting her chin on her hand, her bright eyes blinking.

The two locked eyes.

"Who are you? What are you doing in my house?" Bai Xue sat up.

"Me? I'm Ye Han's robot. Just call me Lingling." Lingling jumped up from the chair, turned around, and called out towards the door, "Master, Sister Baixue is awake!"

"Okay, bring her out for dinner. The food is ready." Ye Han's voice came from outside the door.

Upon hearing Ye Han's voice, Bai Xue immediately threw off the covers and got out of bed.

Pushing open the door, I saw Ye Han carrying steaming hot dishes out of the kitchen; several dishes were already laid out on the table.

"Have something to eat after you wake up. I made it myself, so don't complain if it's not good."

Bai Xue walked over quickly, smiling at him, "Not at all, not at all. I'm overjoyed! Ye Han, how come you came to Tianxue Star so soon?"

This was much faster than Bai Xue had anticipated.

The two sat down, and Lingling followed suit, resting her chin on her hands and glancing back and forth between Ye Han and Bai Xue.

Ye Han pushed a bowl of rice in front of her: "After finishing the Eight Extremes Heavenly Techniques, I learned from Ma why you left. I had originally planned to come much earlier, but I was delayed on the way and got a spatial teleportation device..."

"Forget it, let's talk while we eat. We can't finish this in one go."

"it is good."

Bai Xue picked up her chopsticks, took a bite of food, and put it in her mouth.

"Delicious! Ye Han, when did you learn to cook? Back on Poison Mist Star, you could only cook mushrooms half-cooked."

Lingling also picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks. As a product of technology, she could completely go without eating, yet she still possessed the ability to eat.

She chewed it like a pro and gave Ye Han a thumbs up.

"The master is quite good."

"It's alright, I specifically learned a few cooking techniques before, so my skills have improved a bit." As he spoke, Ye Han put a few more bites of food on Bai Xue's plate: "Eat more, you've lost weight."

After a few bites, Bai Xue's bowl was almost full.

"Ye Han, don't put so much food in my bowl, it's already full. Why don't you tell me about what's happened over the years?"

Having not seen Ye Han for many years, Bai Xue was very curious about his changes.

"Okay," Ye Han agreed.

The dishes on the table gradually dwindled amidst the soft clinking of bowls and chopsticks.

While eating, Ye Han recounted his experiences since leaving the Eight Extremes Star.

Carlo Star, Yaya Luo, including the battle with Blue Eyes....

For years, Tianxue Star has been without internet access, and almost no information from the outside world has come in.

The things Ye Han said completely changed her understanding of the world.

When she heard that Ye Han had single-handedly dismantled hundreds of Blue Eye's warships and punched Blue Eye in half, her chopsticks hovered in mid-air, her mouth slightly open, her expression exactly the same as when she first saw Ye Han lift a giant rock on the desert planet.

"What? You defeated Blue Eyes? The Blue Eyes from Galaxy Eyes? One of the Five Colored Eyes?"

Bai Xue put down her chopsticks, looked Ye Han up and down, her eyes filled with disbelief.

How much have I missed in the years I've been away?

"There's only one blue-eyed guy, who else could it be? I almost forgot to tell you, the toxins and toxic mist brought by the meteorite to Tianxue Star are also being cleaned up, it will be completely cleared in a few days."

"I had Sai Daxi send over a large batch of supplies, as well as various energy equipment, enough to restore Tianxue Star's production capacity," Ye Han explained simply.

In contrast, Snow White would be more concerned about matters concerning the Snow Star.
