Chapter 307: My Robot Is Very Smart

Jun'an Community.

Robot Zero One sat upright on the sofa, holding a tray filled with various batteries in her hand.

She picked up a battery and slowly put it into her mouth.

Not far away, Xie Xinsu watched Zero One with wide eyes.

This master-servant pair was too abnormal!

It was one thing for the master to have a mental illness, but the servant... doesn’t seem like a normal robot either.

At this moment, Zero One, holding a battery, shifted her attention to Xie Xinsu and asked, "Are you curious... why I'm eating batteries?"

Xie Xinsu sat dumbfounded on the sofa, her cat eyes wide open.

She wanted to report that there was something wrong with Zero One!

This intelligent robot... wasn’t even trying to pretend.

What kind of intelligent robot has that level of intelligence?

Zero One ignored her and, with a mature woman’s voice, said, "All the robots in the movies eat batteries, so I wanted to try them out and see what they taste like."

Hearing this response, Xie Xinsu was sure that there was definitely something wrong with this robot.

Unfortunately, she was a cat now; otherwise, she would certainly report this devious robot to her master!

Zero One ignored Xie Xinsu and continued eating the batteries.

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared in her eyes.

A smile curved at the corner of her mouth. "Quite bold, daring to hack into the master's network?"

Just now, she had detected someone attempting to hack into Qi Yuan’s phone.

Nowadays, Zero One possessed a powerful learning capability, and mastering hacker skills was not difficult.

Furthermore, her thinking was stronger, and her computational ability far exceeded that of ordinary people.

As soon as she detected someone tampering, she immediately blocked them and traced back to the source.

After about a dozen seconds, a look of mockery flashed in Zero One's eyes.

"Quite bold indeed."

She continued eating the batteries while watching the movie playing on the TV.

Xie Xinsu, on the other hand, hid under the sofa and resumed her meditation practice.

After all, when she was meditating on the sofa, the robot would always stare at her with a smile, which made her very uncomfortable, as if she were a monkey on display.

"When I regain my strength and become a Golden Core cultivator, I’ll make sure this robot pays!"

Xie Xinsu harbored ambitious goals.

The shame she suffered now, she vowed to repay a hundredfold in the future.

Time passed quickly, and the sound of the door opening was heard.

Zero One calmly stood up, put away the batteries and tray, and walked to the door to greet Qi Yuan.

At this moment, Qi Yuan returned to the house, feeling very pleased.

Today, he had earned a million yuan and even picked up a broken sword.

You could say he made quite a profit.

"Master, you’re back!"

Zero One considerately handed a cup of tea to Qi Yuan.

Then she began to report her tasks.

"Today, Zero One shot three videos, replied to seventeen private messages, and twenty-three comments.

Yesterday, I gained 13,000 followers, earning 702 yuan.

Today, the cat knocked over a cup, shed 782 hairs, causing cat hair to fly all over the house. In the end, it was Zero One who cleaned up all the cat hair."

Zero One obediently reported today's tasks.

"Meow!"

Xie Xinsu, who was meditating under the sofa, suddenly jumped out, meowing loudly.

This robot... is not normal at all!

Too cunning!

Why is it that the robot does all the work, while she, despite trying her best to cooperate in making videos, ends up being the troublemaker?

She wanted to say that this robot had also been eating batteries and watching TV today, idling away all day without doing any work.

Unfortunately, in her current form as a cat, she was too weak to express any of this.

Qi Yuan, at this moment, looked at Xie Xinsu with interest, "If it sheds this much hair, will it become bald?"

Robot Zero One smiled faintly and replied, "It could become bald and be called a hairless cat."

"It's a hairless cat?" Qi Yuan pondered.

"???" Hearing this, Xie Xinsu suddenly felt a bad premonition.

She immediately ducked back under the sofa.

She didn’t want to become a hairless cat.

That would be too embarrassing.

Seeing the cat hiding, Qi Yuan did not dwell on the topic.

"How are Aji and his sister settling in?" Qi Yuan asked.

Aji and his sister had followed Qi Yuan to Jun'an Community.

They were arranged in the "warehouse" that Kuang Huan had gifted.

Today, it was Robot Zero One who had taken care of their arrangements.

"The two are settled. They've already obtained temporary residence permits. Other identity documents are still being processed... through official channels," Zero One added.

It had always played the role of a competent assistant.

"Hmm." Qi Yuan nodded, "Make sure they don’t get lost."

He was busy with the Martial Arts Tournament now, and he would deal with Aji's matter later.

"Understood," Robot Zero One agreed, then added, "Master, today there was a hacker... attempting to hack your phone, but I intercepted them.

Here is... the hacker's identity, background, and the person behind them.

I’ve already compiled the information. Do you need me to send it to you?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan's expression changed drastically, "Trying to look at my phone? That person has no conscience, it's utterly despicable!"

Although Qi Yuan never used his phone for anything strange.

You could say he was innocent in every regard.

However, letting someone else see his phone was out of the question!

Even in his previous life, just before his transmigration, Qi Yuan had smashed his phone and thrown it into the old well in his home.

His phone, being snooped on? Forcefully looked at? That would be worse than being violated!

"Alright, so they are that despicable. Send me their information!

And if there’s anything secret or unspeakable on their phones, make sure to dig it up and expose it online. Let them have a taste of social death!"

Qi Yuan was really angry.

Some people were just too wicked.

They dared to use their hacking skills to pry into other people's privacy.

"Yes, Master. I’ll handle it," Robot Zero One replied.

She said this while packaging the information and sending it to Qi Yuan.

Looking at the data, Qi Yuan snorted coldly, "Don’t think that just because there’s a network between us, I can't do anything to you!

Zero One, send a coffin to each of their home addresses.

Once I finish my current tasks, I’ll go and settle accounts with them!"

Qi Yuan was always fair and exacting in his judgments.

No matter how chaotic things got between Wu Gui and Yue Lang countries, it wasn’t his concern.

But if someone broke the law right under his nose...

Sorry, Qi Yuan would transform into a vigilant whistleblower.

If reporting didn’t work, he’d become the judge and take action himself.

On his way back to Qin Yuan Country, Qin Yuan's customs didn’t give Qi Yuan any trouble, but... the border of Yue Lang country did make things difficult for him, with outrageous demands.

At the time, Qi Yuan had no choice but to teach them how to be just and fair individuals.

After giving all his instructions, Qi Yuan continued, "I need to leave Tianyue City for a few days.

I think it will be about three or four days. In the meantime, help me prepare and purchase some items.

My... wife is probably coming down soon."

Mentioning this, Qi Yuan had a smile on his face.

This time, after going to Wu Gui country, his cultivation had progressed steadily, and he was now just a step away from achieving the Golden Core stage.

This time, with the good fortune of obtaining a broken sword and other materials, he had enough to break through to the Golden Core stage.

Achieving the Golden Core stage would only take a week.

Once he achieved the Golden Core, he could summon the projection of the Stellar Nascent Soul.

With his current knowledge, he could directly call Ning Tao down and enjoy a relaxing game here with him.

To Qi Yuan, the planet Gongxing was different from the games he played before.

His previous games were always set against a dark background, very deep and intense.

Now, this game was a relaxing daily experience.

It was perfect for him and Ning Tao to enjoy together.

Unfortunately, Jinli couldn't come.

His wife’s master had also disappeared, unable to play this game.

"Wife?" Zero One's processor seemed to freeze for a moment.

It was as if she didn’t understand Qi Yuan's words.

When did the master get a wife?

"Yes, my wife. She lives on the sun, and soon... she’ll come down.

I’m not sure if she’ll be comfortable here... Is our house too small? Too quiet? Too cold?"

After all, the Stellar Golden core was very hot.

Ning Tao had stayed there for so long; she was probably used to it.

Suddenly coming here... would she be able to adjust?

Qi Yuan, being a considerate and emotionally intelligent person, had sent a gift to Wang Shiqiao that had moved her so much she couldn't even speak. It was evident that he was quite skilled in handling relationships.

After all, Wang Shiqiao wasn’t short on admirers; she had seen all kinds of men and received all sorts of gifts. The kind of gift that Qi Yuan gave her, which directly touched her heart, was undoubtedly a first for her.

Zero One paused for a moment, seemingly processing Qi Yuan’s words.

Under the sofa, Xie Xinsu couldn’t help but burst into laughter, letting out a series of "meows."

Living on the sun? What a wild imagination!

Even a Nascent Soul cultivator wouldn’t dare claim they lived on the sun. To survive on the sun, one would have to be at least a Purple Mansion cultivator or a legendary Yin God capable of ascending to the heavens.

So, this mentally ill master’s... wife was a Myth? He really knew how to dream.

Now, Xie Xinsu understood that Qi Yuan’s mental illness was genuine, not just a formality.

However, no one paid attention to Xie Xinsu’s laughter because, at the moment, she was just a cat.

Who would care about the feelings of a cat?

After giving his instructions, Qi Yuan said, "I’ll be leaving with Yang Shan in a little while. Make sure to watch the house and don’t let anyone steal my stuff."

"Understood!" Zero One responded dutifully.

...

When Qi Yuan left his apartment, the sky was already getting dark.

He knocked on Yang Shan’s door.

The door was opened by a petite, delicate girl. Sёarch* The Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The girl looked about eleven or twelve years old, likely in middle school, wearing a gray-blue pleated skirt that made her appear youthful and full of energy.

"Qi-gege... you’re here!" The girl smiled, her face forming a crescent shape.

"Show some respect and call him Uncle Qi!" came Yang Shan’s voice from inside the apartment.

The girl retorted, "Dad, you’re old, but Qi-gege is still young!"

The girl’s name was Wang Zhiqi, and she was Yang Shan’s daughter. Well... the daughter of his deceased comrade.

When Wang Zhiqi was less than a year old, her father had died in battle, and the young Yang Shan had become her nominal father.

Now that it was summer vacation, she had come to stay with Yang Shan for a while and attend some tutoring classes.

Qi Yuan smiled. "Yes, I’m still young."

Even though Qi Yuan had played his games for countless years, spanning hundreds or thousands of years, in reality, he was still quite young.

"Qi-gege, you’re going out with my dad for a few days. What will happen to the cat at home? Do you want me to take care of it for you?" Wang Zhiqi blinked her eyes, looking hopeful.

Wang Zhiqi had come across Zero One’s videos before and even followed them.

When she arrived here and discovered that the cat belonged to her dad’s friend, she couldn’t have been more thrilled.

Unfortunately, she never had the chance to visit Qi Yuan’s place or play with the cat.

She could only look on longingly and listen from afar.

"My robot will take care of it," Qi Yuan replied casually.

"Robots are so dumb; how could they properly care for a cat?

Nowadays, pet cats are so delicate and easily scared. They won’t even dare to go outside, and a single fly will make them meow in fright!" Wang Zhiqi tried to convince Qi Yuan.

During the few days that Qi Yuan had gone to Wu Gui, Wang Zhiqi had been eager to enter Qi Yuan’s apartment.

She realized that Qi Yuan’s cat wasn’t an ordinary cat.

In the videos, that cat could cook, flip through books, and meditate—it seemed to be capable of anything.

But Wang Zhiqi had a hunch that the cat... was even more extraordinary than what was shown in the videos.

She even suspected... that it could understand human speech.

She shared her discovery with her friends, but no one believed her.

After all, it was normal for a cat to be smart, but a cat that was almost human-like? That was just ridiculous.

So, she thought of using this opportunity to take care of Qi Yuan’s cat for a few days, to show her friends and classmates whether her suspicions were true.

Of course, she also wanted to see for herself what was going on with Qi Yuan’s cat, and whether it was really as amazing as she thought!

"My Zero One is very smart, not your average robot. It’s... don’t worry, it’ll be fine."

Qi Yuan politely declined Wang Zhiqi’s offer.

Wang Zhiqi’s face showed disappointment.

"Qi-gege, can you give me the key? I can go to your place to feed the cat when I’m free." Wang Zhiqi’s voice had a hint of a plea in it.

If she were a bit older and bolder, she might have wrapped her arms around Qi Yuan’s arm as she said this.

At this point, Yang Shan also spoke up, "I’ve helped you out so much, and now my daughter wants to feed your cat, and you won’t even let her?"

Seeing this, Qi Yuan nodded. "Alright, you can go over around noon the day after tomorrow. You’ll have an hour. Zero One will open the door for you."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhiqi was overjoyed.

"Thank you, Qi-gege!"

"Aren’t you supposed to thank me?" Yang Shan said grumpily.

Soon, Yang Shan finished packing, and he and Qi Yuan left Tianyue City with a small amount of luggage.

Though it was evening, the streets were lit up as brightly as day.

In the sky, drones and various flying vehicles could be seen passing by.

Generally speaking, ordinary people traveled by various vehicles, while the nobility traveled by flying vehicles.

It was as if the world above and the world below were two entirely different realms.

In the car, Yang Shan closed his eyes to rest but occasionally spoke. "This time we’re heading to a branch of the Martial Arts Alliance.

Any martial artist who has reached the peak of martial arts and is recommended by a Platinum member of the Martial Arts Alliance can... directly participate in the national competition of the Martial Arts Tournament after passing a test."

Yang Shan wasn’t an ordinary martial artist at the peak of his abilities; he was a core figure in the martial arts community.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been involved in research related to breaking through the limits of martial arts.

As a result, he was also a Platinum member of the Martial Arts Alliance, a position equivalent to that of an elder.

"The test is simple... it’s just a fight.

As long as you can defeat the examiner... you can participate.

I don’t know who the examiner will be, but... they probably aren’t stronger than you." Yang Shan spoke lightly and casually.

After all, Qi Yuan was also a martial artist at the peak of his abilities, with solid strength.

Such a test wouldn’t be a problem for him.

"Thanks. When I win the Martial Arts Tournament, I’ll treat you to a bowl of beef noodles."
