【The Goddess loves all living beings and is the strongest existence in the world. There are no lovers or romance, only believers. However, there will be unrequited feelings from others—the sentiment of 'resenting the bright moon for hanging high and not shining solely upon me.'】
Yun Shu stood on a barren slope.
Beneath her feet was hard-packed yellow earth, parched and cracked like a tortoise's shell, with a few withered stalks of grass poking through the crevices.
After glancing around, she reached out her hand, and a white jade bowl appeared out of thin air in her palm.
The bowl was filled to the brim with white porridge.
“Host, we’ve transmigrated into a novel set in a chaotic era. The danger index is extremely high. If you weren't going to pick an initial outfit that boosts beauty, you should have at least chosen one that increases combat power.”
A floating sphere of light with a face spoke in a human voice. “Instead, you chose the most useless one. The only skill this 'Scent of Plain Snow' outfit has is 'Infinite White Porridge.' What use is that...”
“Who said this outfit isn't good?”
Yun Shu swallowed the last of the porridge. The white jade bowl in her hand silently shattered into points of light and scattered into the wind.
“This outfit is fantastic!”
During the Three Kingdoms period, the Great Teacher Zhang Jiao managed to get tens of thousands of people to risk their lives for him with nothing more than a bowl of rice water and talisman water.
Her bowl of white porridge was far more enticing than simple rice water.
In that case, why shouldn't she follow his example?
After all, acting was her forte.
As for combat power, she possessed it naturally. If she encountered any emergencies, she could handle them.
Feeling confident, she smoothed her sleeves. According to the book's description, she turned and walked toward a valley stream ahead.
“Host, our mission is to conquer the male lead of this chaotic era novel, General Shen Jue of the Yong Dynasty.”
“He is currently being assassinated in a small grove eight hundred meters to your front-left. You’re going the wrong way.”
The system light ball floated beside Yun Shu. Aside from her, no one could see it, hear it, or touch it.
Yun Shu continued walking without stopping. “When did I ever say I was going to find the male lead?”
Why bother conquering a male lead when being a world-saving Goddess was much more satisfying?
The system followed her, completely confused. “Host, didn't you choose to transmigrate at the male lead's lowest point specifically to save him and farm favorability?”
“All my previous hosts did that.”
“They took the support route. During the male lead's low point, they gave him warmth, talent, money, technology...”
“That is the optimal strategy for conquest.”
Yun Shu said nonchalantly, “System, desperate offers don't sell. I want him to come and beg me.”
Half an hour later.
Standing by the stream, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing a section of forearms as white as jade, and then began pouring white porridge into the water.
The 'Infinite White Porridge' skill attached to the 'Scent of Plain Snow' outfit had its limits. Bug-like behavior, such as drowning someone in porridge, was definitely not allowed.
The number of bowls she could manifest depended on how many people were present, and each person could only have one bowl at a time.
Only after the person finished the porridge and the white jade bowl vanished could she manifest a second bowl for them.
“Host, what are you doing?” the system asked, puzzled.
Yun Shu continued pouring porridge into the water. “Didn't you say there were fish in this stream? I’m trying to use the porridge as chum.”
“Drinking just white porridge is a bit bland,” the system said, rummaging through its system inventory.
“Host, I have a bottle of seasoning powder here. Once you catch a fish and roast it, sprinkle this on. It smells crazy good.”
“Crazy good? Are you a Northeast System?” Yun Shu smiled as she took the seasoning powder.
The system said wistfully, “My previous host was from the Northeast. She loved having little barbecues whenever she could. She left this seasoning powder for me.”
As it spoke, scenes from the past flashed through its mind.
One host after another had found survival in this chaotic world too difficult. They deemed this dress-up system useless and unlinked from it.
“Host, do you want a grilled fish tutorial?” It was unusually attentive to Yun Shu, its tone even carrying a hint of flattery.
Yun Shu shook her head.
She wasn't catching fish to eat them.
Heaven rewards the diligent.
After chumming the water for two days, the surface finally showed movement today. First, the water rippled slightly, and then red shadows began to emerge from the depths, more and more of them appearing.
Yun Shu calmly held up a bowl of porridge. With her other hand, she took a pill from her sleeve and crushed it between her fingers. The pill turned into a fine powder and drifted into the porridge.
“Host, you...”
Before the system could finish, it saw Yun Shu pour the spiked porridge into the water.
In an instant, the fish went into a frenzy, splashing water everywhere as they scrambled to devour the rice grains.
The system was stunned for a moment.
The next second, its voice cracked. “Host, that was a Favorability Pill! A Favorability Pill that adds ten points! You didn't use it on the male lead, but fed it to a bunch of fish?!”
“Aaaaaah!” It let out a sharp, piercing shriek. “You spendthrift!”
“I practically begged on my knees to get that from the Mary Sue System, and you actually fed it to fish...”
“It’s over, everything is ruined...”
Yun Shu looked at the near-collapsing system. “I’m doing this to conquer the male lead. As the saying goes, you can't catch a wolf without a lure.”
The system remained skeptical.
The fish had eaten every grain of rice in the water, but they didn't leave. Instead, they swam back and forth by the bank, trying to get closer to Yun Shu.
The Favorability Pill had worked.
“Hmm, the effect seems pretty good.”
Yun Shu looked at the red carp swimming toward her and lightly tapped their heads with her fingertips. “System, how much longer until the male lead's brother, Shen Yu, passes through this valley?”
Shen Yu was the second legitimate son of Shen Xiao, the Marquis of Ningyuan. He had been well-read since childhood and was a paragon of a noble young master.
The plot of the book mentioned that Shen Jue had been punished by the Emperor for demanding the execution of a group of alchemists who were causing chaos at court. He was exiled to a cold, desolate region. Upon hearing the news, Shen Yu left home to follow him, becoming Shen Jue’s chief strategist. He provided the counsel needed to overthrow the corrupt Yong Dynasty and establish a new one.
He was a true talent capable of assisting a king.
The system replied listlessly, “Thirteen minutes.”
“System, you’re the best.” Yun Shu was not stingy with her praise.
The only way to obtain outfits from the dress-up system was through a gacha pool using Shock Value collected from people.
Relying on the plot alone, she wouldn't have been able to time her carefully prepared performance for Shen Yu.
Fortunately, she had the system to cheat for her.
It was time to harvest the first wave of Shock Value.
Yun Shu found an open space by the stream and sat down, her moon-white plain silk skirt spreading across the blue stone.
System outfits came with a self-cleaning function, so there was no need to worry about getting them dirty or wet.
She tilted her chin slightly, exuding the aura of a Goddess.
Compassionate, distant, yet possessing a touch of majesty that looked down upon all living beings.
“Host, he’s here.”
Upon hearing the system’s words, Yun Shu lightly lifted her hand, and a bowl of white porridge appeared in her palm.
【Shock Value from Shen Da +20】
【Shock Value from Shen Er +20】
【Shock Value from Shen Yu +5】
“Young Master...”
On the forest path, Shen Yu pulled the reins and raised his hand, silencing the guard behind him.
The two guards first exchanged looks and then stared toward the stream together, their eyes filled with both amazement and fear.
A woman in white sat upon a blue stone, holding a white jade bowl. The morning light cast a halo around her, making her cold, elegant face seem even less like that of a mortal.
They had seen the scene just now quite clearly.
That bowl of white porridge had appeared out of thin air!
