262 5.5 – No World Story – The Sleepless Elite’s Wife
+—- Author’s note —–+
IMPORTANT
There are many sides of Xuan Mu. Bad and Good. Ru Quan and Ziek are mostly bad sides exaggerated by their circumstances. And then, you realize that Lu Kai is actually the side of Xuan Mu that Bing Shi fell head over heels with.
Ziek + Ru Quan + Lu Kai = Xuan Mu
About Bing Shi’s bad sides. They are very hard to point out. She is addictive, compulsive, gossipy, manipulative, stubborn, and controlling? At times, I find her psychotic moments pretty scary. What do you think?
World law – a “non-living” being that is related to nature, science. Imagine being moved to another planet with its set rules. Do you know when MCs are struck by lightning during their cultivation? It’s something like Heavenly Dao, which is never fully explained. It’s different from Gods that could turn bad and go rampant. It functions in a mystical inhuman way, like nature and its physics.)

Double update, yay!??

Current time...
If the HQ planned to use Bing Shi only inside of one universe, they wouldn’t mind if she became a female lead or not, they would still receive SE due to the worlds being a part of one universe, which had its own set of souls and rules. However, they were sending her to different universes. The world law bond was incredibly fragile, once broke, it couldn’t be reversed back. Mao An would lose her bond with the world law, forever. Before it could happen, they summoned Xuan Mu back.
It usually took a lifetime to decide on new leads. In most cases it was doable. The HQ didn’t know the pattern, but the worlds would always be able to find new leads.
The biggest problem was... the world law would set its standards higher. Only those on the same pair or above the previous leads would be able to create a world law bond.
In Xuan Mu’s case...
This man...
As soon as his soul broke, the world law cut its bond with him. This ex-male lead’s actions in his first lifetime caused his world to not have a single male lead afterward!
They couldn’t let it happen again!

As soon as Kuro finished, the connection with Bing Shi was cut off. Confused, Kuro flew around the empty space, looking for its host that just disappeared before its eyes.

A few moments later...
“Is she alright?” The chief asked while looking at the report, gasping in surprise when he saw the high amount of healed souls, among them, were Cheng Young and Mao An. Seatbacks and challenges were often needed for a soul to grow. The leads in that world were the proof that love wasn’t a solution to everything, sometimes it would create more problems than it could solve. Yes, Bing Shi failed a mission where Zhao Rong fell in love with her, but they couldn’t find any irregularities in him, the opposite, his soul seemed more stable. A few more reincarnations and he would fully recover.
“Her condition stabilized,” the assistant answered. Bing Shi’s soul suddenly evolved, thus the reason why her soul cut every connection with Kuro.
“Upgrade Kuro to accommodate her current soul.” The chief ordered.
Thanks to the two last missions, Bing Shi’s presence grew in intensity, tremendously. It would be impossible for her to go out unnoticed without catching anyone’s attention. She didn’t know how to hide it completely. If this continued, it would stand in her upcoming missions. She’d have to learn how to control her presence and aura better, but how? She wasn’t suited to train in the training hall. They couldn’t inject this knowledge into her soul like some other hosts either.
While Kuro was being upgraded, the HQ decided to nurture this new, rare soul. They’ll give Bing Shi a well-deserved vacation, with a little side quest to help her train her presence. She was able to accomplish the unthinkable, this little mission should be a walk through a bed of roses for her, right? They thought...
“Chief. Which world should we send her to?” The assistant asked.
Anything but cultivation worlds with deities and gods, thought the chief.
Which world would that girl appreciate the most? The chief decided, “The one most similar to her original world. Warn her about other hosts residing in that world without revealing their identities. Also...”
The chief rubbed his long white beard. Xuan Mu wouldn’t make a good chief like him, who was obsessed with a soul’s growth, “Hm... Bing Shi, that girl would be a great chief.”
The assistant stopped his superior, “The Proxy wouldn’t let us go if he knew we overworked his wife to death.”
“No... How many times do I have to remind you... It’s his wife who wouldn’t let us go,” the chief answered. Why was everyone warier of Xuan Mu than Bing Shi? That girl made one loss after another. She risked the success of her future missions, just to acquire a connection with the HQ. She wasn’t blinded by that one wish. Unable to depend on it, she searched for other routes to acquire what she wanted. The cherry on the top, she killed a veteran Host with her bare hands. She was breaking the rules and nobody cared.
How?!
Because they allowed her to!
Why?!
Because it was worth a try!

Levitating in the middle of never-ending, star-filled space, where time flowed slower, Xuan Mu, in his astral form, unfolded his right hand. A lustrous screen materialized above his palm, unfolding a scene on the other side.
This universe had its own heaven and hell. Gods, and Goddesses. The god’s souls he was about to shatter belonged to a category ‘rare’. Thirty thousands of years after, and they still didn’t evolve... They needed a little push, and he was here to do that push... By playing the bad guy.
Xuan Mu raised his right arms above his head, closing his eyes, he created an imaginary reality, a decoy – a new System Headquarters. Around him, a great hall appeared. Humanoid robots, one after another, scattered to their assigned posts.
When all was done and ready, Xuan Mu opened his eyes and disappeared on the spot. Reappearing above a heaven’s main palace, he flicked his fingers, a little black hole materialized. Growing in size, it devoured the first God. Repeating the process on the hell’s side, his black hole devoured the second God.
Staring at the small fragments that remained of the first God’s soul, Xuan Mu kept one and sent the rest to each world.
The reason why Xuan Mu was summoned so suddenly, was understandable. Because the HQ couldn’t see the situation in that world, they inserted a command into Kuro. Whenever a certain situation occurred, it would activate and notify Xuan Mu. When they saw what that pair caused in a span of a few years through Kuro, they feared one thing: The world law choosing a new male and female lead, Xuan Mu and Bing Shi.
Above the soulmate bond, was the world law bond. The world law – a spiritual energy that came from the core of a planet, would bond with one pair of souls, giving HQ the highest source of soul energy. While each world could contain only one leading pair, the universe included all the leading pairs of every world.
“How was it?” Xuan Mu asked the icosahedron whose job was to overlook the souls in that universe. This was the reason why he was moved out the moment he chose his body. Looking at the time, he compared it to the time in Bing Shi’s next world. Two weeks should have passed there.
A massive icosahedron covered in bright red runes answered back. “Next time, put the blame on someone else, not the HQ.”‘
“Those two were bored to death. They need a last BOSS to defeat.” Xuan Mu gave the rest of the god fragments to ‘System #92645’ that was now connected to the fake HQ.
