"Host, it seems so. The Main God contacted me privately, saying that this seal absolutely must be retrieved." The system directly threw the Main God under the bus.
Now, in its heart, the host was far more important than the Main God. After all, only by clinging tightly to the host's thigh could it maintain its top ranking.
"I don't want anything," Lin Yan replied to the system.
Lin Yan didn't feel she lacked anything, especially since she would soon return to her own world. In that world, her family was harmonious, her parents were healthy, and her circumstances were excellent, meaning she lacked nothing.
The only regret was her childhood sweetheart fiancé, Liang Minghao. Once they accumulated enough points, this regret would also be resolved.
To her, her life was perfect, and she didn't need immortality.
She had once existed as a god in the previous world and had tasted the feeling of immortality. In this world, as a cultivator, her lifespan was also very long.
But a long lifespan meant watching her loved ones grow old and even die. Therefore, she didn't want it at all.
"It must be a divine artifact. It seems my ancestors truly were magnificent." Lin Yan touched the seal with her finger, sensing its purpose.
"That would be my honor," Zi Che Shao Hao leaned his face against Lin Yan's cheek. "A family with inherited divine artifacts is never simple."
"How could the Zi Che family be simple?" Lin Yan said with a chuckle.
In this cultivation world, these families with double-character surnames had been passed down for tens of thousands of years. Some families had declined, while others remained prosperous.
The Tan Tai family belonged to the former, and the Zi Che family to the latter.
As for Wan Si Rui, he also came from a prominent family, albeit a collateral branch that had fallen from the Central Continent to the Southeastern Region.
However, judging by his name, he was not an heir of the main lineage but a collateral branch, or even a son born from a concubine.
Among these families with double-character surnames, the main lineage all had double-character given names, as did the legitimate heirs of collateral branches, though their characters might be different but pronounced the same. Only sons born from concubines had single-character given names.
This was also one of the male protagonist's face-slapping plots. After Wan Si Rui arrived in the Central Continent, the Wan Si family was a very important location.
It was just unknown if he would still return to the Wan Si family as in the original work and, little by little, rise up and become the new leader of the Wan Si family.
However, until the end, he was merely a tool of the Wan Si family. Later, after he ascended to immortality, the Wan Si family's prosperity lasted for many years, leveraging his influence.
"So we are well-matched," Zi Che Shao Hao knew that many people felt Lin Yan was not good enough for him, but in reality, it was he who was not good enough.
Yan Yan's talent was exceptional, astonishingly so. Coupled with her immense merit, no one in this world was worthy of her.
"Yes, we are well-matched and deeply in love," Lin Yan said, her smile sweet. She turned and kissed Zi Che Shao Hao on the cheek.
"System, tell the Main God that I will consider it. But don't worry, I will return this seal. As for what reward the Main God will give me, I won't be polite."
Lin Yan felt her life was still very happy. She had no conflict with the Main God, and her own system had always accompanied her.
The Main God valued this seal so much, it seemed to be very important to Him. Therefore, the system that retrieved it should also receive a reward.
"Alright, host, I'll go tell the Main God right away. I'll also search the system store thoroughly to see if there's anything suitable for you," the system said obsequiously.
