[ Identity: Daughter of the Forbidden Zone ]
[ Height: 158cm ]
[ Measurements: 82, 55, 83 ]
[ Special Physique and Bloodline: Innate Superhuman Strength ]
[ Overall Rating: 96 points ]
Xu Chen looked at these few lines of text, the muscles at the corner of his eyes twitching uncontrollably.
96 points!
The high-score coordinate that had been flashing on the System radar was actually this super-strong loli before him, who had just punched a quasi-emperor's head into smithereens!
Xu Chen felt a sense of absurdity rush straight to his brain.
He had originally thought that what was hidden in the depths of this Forbidden Zone of Life was some sleeping goddess or a sealed Fairy.
Who could have imagined that the second blind box the System had picked for him would actually be a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Along with that sense of absurdity, the feeling of being on high alert in Xu Chen's heart instantly dissipated.
Since she was a high-score beauty with a 96-point rating certified by the System, she could not be a mindless killing machine.
This was the future wife appointed by the System, a supreme treasure meant for propagating the Family lineage and earning critical hit rewards.
The icy guard in Xu Chen's eyes receded like the tide.
Replaced by a fiery and benevolent look, as if he were gazing at his own rare treasure.
He relaxed his tense muscles, his expression returning to that calm and composed demeanor.
On the ruins in the distance.
Tuoba You tilted her head, her eyes as clear as a deer in the forest, staring straight at Xu Chen.
She moved.
Her legs bent slightly, and she exerted force suddenly like a spring.
Accompanied by a dull sonic boom, the giant bone spur beneath her feet turned directly into powder.
Tuoba You's petite body was like a cannonball, crossing a distance of several hundred zhang, and landed steadily less than ten steps in front of Xu Chen.
The ground was stamped with two deep footprints, and the surrounding rubble was sent flying outwards by the shock.
Ji Qingyun was so frightened that she grabbed Xu Chen's sleeve, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Xu Chen stood motionless on the spot.
His bright red cloak fluttered in the air currents, his entire presence imposing and steady, like an immovable mountain.
After the distance closed, Xu Chen finally saw the girl's full appearance.
She was wrapped in a few pieces of roughly stitched Vicious Beast fur, barely covering her important parts.
Her skin, exposed to the elements year-round, presented a vibrant, healthy wheat color, full of wild tension.
Her face and arms were still splattered with the black, filthy blood of the rotting beast from just now.
That baby-faced visage, with a hint of baby fat, was as exquisite as porcelain carefully crafted by the heavens.
Most eye-catching were her eyes.
They were a pair of eyes without any worldly Impurities, as pure as a pool of clear spring water.
Inside, there was no Killing Intent, no malice, only pure curiosity and a trace of ignorance.
Tuoba You wrinkled her small nose, as if sniffing something carefully in the air.
Her gaze passed over Xu Chen and landed on Ji Qingyun, who was hiding behind him.
The aura of the Creation Green Lotus on Ji Qingyun had an inexplicable attraction for her.
Then, her gaze fell back onto Xu Chen.
From this tall man's body, a better-smelling scent emanated.
That was the unique Origin aura of heaven and earth belonging to the Hongmeng Creation Origin Body, which made her feel exceptionally close and comfortable.
"What... are you things?"
Tuoba You finally spoke.
Her voice was crisp and pleasant, like a lark singing in the mountains, though her pronunciation was slightly stiff, as if she hadn't spoken in a long time.
Ji Qingyun hid behind, not daring to make a sound.
Xu Chen looked at the girl before him, covered in bloodstains but with pure, clear eyes, the smile at the corners of his mouth growing richer.
His expression was exactly like a father looking at his own daughter.
This girl had lived in the Forbidden Zone of Life year-round, accompanied by the undead; she had likely never seen a living human being.
Her mentality was like a blank sheet of paper.
Since it was a blank sheet of paper, it would be easy to handle.
What Xu Chen was best at was drawing on blank paper.
"We are not things; we are humans."
Xu Chen's tone was gentle, carrying an affinity that made people feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze.
Not only did he not retreat, but he took a step forward, closing the distance between them.
"My name is Xu Chen. That big guy from just now kept chasing us. Thanks to you stepping in to save us and driving that bad guy away. Little sister, what is your name?"
Xu Chen said this without blushing or skipping a beat.
He directly defined the quasi-emperor rotting beast that had been punched into smithereens as a bad guy chasing them, logically bestowing upon Tuoba You the title of savior.
For such a simple-minded girl with super strength, using praise and gratitude to build a relationship was absolutely the most effective method.
Sure enough.
Hearing Xu Chen's words, a glimmer of happiness flashed in Tuoba You's pure, clear eyes.
She had grown up in this dark, sunless Forbidden Zone of Life, facing only disgusting monsters that only knew how to kill and devour every day. This was the first time a "person" had spoken to her with such a pleasant voice, and even praised her as a savior.
"My name is... Tuoba You."
The girl lowered the hands she had been clenching into fists, and somewhat awkwardly tugged at the animal skin on her body.
"That big guy was too noisy. It snored when it slept, and it was so noisy I couldn't sleep. I just wanted to make it shut up."
Tuoba You's explanation was simple and crude.
She had no idea that what she had just killed was a quasi-emperor Vicious Beast that could make external Saint Lords tremble with fear. In her concept, it was just a giant nuisance that disturbed her sleep.
Listening to this outrageous explanation, Xu Chen secretly clicked his tongue in wonder. Finding a quasi-emperor's snoring too noisy, she just punched its head into smithereens.
This girl's Innate Superhuman Strength was simply a humanoid extreme dao imperial weapon.
If he could trick her back to the Xu Family, in the future, if he didn't like the look of someone, he could just close the door and release Youyou; that picture would simply be too beautiful.
Xu Chen's abacus in his heart was clicking away loudly.
He looked at Tuoba You, his eyes growing increasingly gentle.
"Youyou, good name."
Xu Chen praised her calmly. He keenly sensed that in Tuoba You's eyes looking at him, there was no hostility, only curiosity about new things.
Ji Qingyun also poked her head out from behind Xu Chen.
Looking at the seemingly harmless girl before her, she really couldn't connect her with the terrifying image from just now of someone who had shattered a mountain with one punch. However, since Xu Chen said it was okay, her hanging heart finally returned to her chest.
The night was deep and heavy with dew, and the temperature in the core of the Forbidden Zone of Life began to drop sharply.
Just as Xu Chen was preparing to continue speaking, to further close the distance with this super-strong loli.
A strange sound rang out on the edge of the silent deep pit.
"Gurgle..."
The sound was extremely loud, like muffled thunder coming from Tuoba You's stomach.
Tuoba You froze. She looked down at her stomach, and on her face, which had originally carried a bit of wildness, a rare, embarrassed blush appeared.
That full-force straight punch just now had consumed a large amount of her body's Qi and blood. Now, her bottomless-pit-like stomach began to issue a strong protest.
She raised her head, looking pitifully at Xu Chen, then looked at the foul-smelling corpse on the ground, her eyes full of disdain. The meat on these monsters was all stinky; she couldn't eat it at all.
Hearing this sound, the smile at the corners of Xu Chen's mouth could no longer be suppressed.
To conquer a woman's heart, one must first conquer her stomach.
Especially for such a simple-minded, hungry foodie loli.
Xu Chen knew that his opportunity had come.
