The images flooding into Fang Zhou's brain were clearly the memories of Ling Xiaoyue.
The two of them already had a mental connection, and now, with her emotions fluctuating wildly, she transmitted a large number of memory fragments into Fang Zhou's mind.
It wasn't until these images disappeared that Fang Zhou felt the headache ease.
"Huh... what is this..."
Ling Xiaoyue also snapped out of her confusion, looked down at her own eyes; they appeared somewhat vacant, clearly lost in thought.
Fang Zhou didn't wake her up.
Now he could be completely sure that Ling Xiaoyue, like him, was definitely a transmigrator from another world and carried a pay-to-win system with her.
The memory fragments included images of a plane crash, indicating that the reason Ling Xiaoyue transmigrated in her previous life was due to a plane crash.
A very typical way of transmigration, used by most senior transmigrators.
It's just not clear what happened later that caused Ling Xiaoyue to forget her origin and memories of her past life, leading to that kind of confused state.
She might subconsciously blurt out things or languages different from this world, but she couldn't recall her background.
Given her realm, she should logically have a way to access her previous life's memories.
Amnesia in her case might either be due to a seal or damage to her origin power, resulting in memory loss.
Fang Zhou leaned more towards the latter; if it were a seal, Fang Zhou wouldn't be able to see her memory fragments.
Ling Xiaoyue likely lost a significant portion of her previous life's memories due to some accident that damaged her origin power.
From the high and mighty Master of the Moon Palace to a rogue everyone in the Cultivation World wanted to beat up, it might be related to this accident.
Ling Xiaoyue stayed lost in thought for a long time before coming back to her senses.
"Disciple..."
She looked up at Fang Zhou and said seriously, "You reincarnated from another small world, didn't you? Tell your master the details."
Ling Xiaoyue might not have noticed her amnesia before, but Fang Zhou breaking the window paper would surely make her realize she had lost some memories.
The Cultivation World is surrounded by other small worlds, and people or creatures often wander between them.
A transmigrator like Fang Zhou wouldn't seem too shocking instead.
He casually mentioned his origins without going into much detail, naturally omitting the part about the system.
When Fang Zhou described a modern civilization completely different from the Cultivation World, Ling Xiaoyue, though unable to remember, just felt it was very familiar, as if she once knew it.
Just this point was enough; it proved she either experienced it or heard of it, indirectly verifying her memory loss.
"So, does that mean we come from the same world?"
"Perhaps."
After listening to Fang Zhou, Ling Xiaoyue remained silent, making Fang Zhou think she was in a bad mood.
But soon, she cheerfully wrapped her arm around Fang Zhou's shoulder: "Seems like we're from the same hometown, no wonder I felt so close to you at first glance; our master-disciple bond is fated."
Fang Zhou couldn't help but want to roll his eyes at her; this carefree woman truly didn't need worrying about.
"Don't change the subject, quickly tell me, what's up with your pay-to-win system?"
Having failed to change the topic, Ling Xiaoyue could only pout and reveal her Magic Treasure to Fang Zhou.
She told Fang Zhou that the pay-to-win system was an intangible Magic Treasure fused with her Divine Soul, and others could never acquire it, so there was no need to covet it.
This bit about not coveting was clearly directed at Fang Zhou, as she was probably afraid he had designs on her Magic Treasure.
Fang Zhou wanted to shout, "I have my own, I don't need your money-sucking piece of junk, even if you give it to me, I don't want it."
But in the end, he held back; if he spoke of having one too, Ling Xiaoyue might covet his system in return.
The pay-to-win system, as the name implies, is a system where you get stronger by paying money, displaying an unabashed capitalist's face.
However, the system doesn't accept just any amount of money; otherwise, Ling Xiaoyue would simply become a robber, pillaging everywhere, and soon ascend.
The money must be earned by her own hands for the recharge to be most effective; the more she recharges, the more she gets.
Money acquired by chance provides a poorer recharge effect, like treasure hunting or winning a lottery.
Money given by others or borrowed lands in the third tier, with the recharge effect being ten times less than money she earned herself, and using such money only temporarily boosts strength.
Money obtained forcibly offers virtually no recharge effect.
And using money acquired through illegal means can even have negative effects, triggering a "police alert buff" that decreases strength.
The pay-to-win system has its own set of judgment criteria, and there's no way to circumvent it; sneaky behavior even leads to punishment.
Moreover, whatever method Ling Xiaoyue uses to get money, once given away, it all counts as hers, resulting in a decrease in strength.
After listening to this, Fang Zhou finally understood why Ling Xiaoyue was so stingy; most people see money as a small calamity, while for her, it's a matter of life and death.
He also realized why her strength fluctuated wildly, sometimes Innate, sometimes reverting to the Golden Core Realm, likely due to frequent recharges with borrowed money.
No wonder her creditors could be found all over the Cultivation World; she had been borrowing money with the mindset of never paying back.
Fang Zhou suddenly thought Ling Xiaoyue's pay-to-win system wasn't bad; at least it encouraged the host to earn money by themselves, rather than becoming a bottomless scoundrel to make money.
Wait a minute, doesn't that make this pay-to-win system extremely compatible with Fang Zhou?
He's excellent at making money; all of it earned with his own hands.
If, after transmigrating, he had ended up with Ling Xiaoyue's pay-to-win system instead of the one he currently has, wouldn't he have soared long ago?
Thinking of this, Fang Zhou looked at Ling Xiaoyue with eyes full of apparent frustration, as if lamenting the misuse of a treasure.
Given such a good system, you managed to play it like this; it's almost a disgrace to all transmigrators.
It would have been much better in my hands!!
Ling Xiaoyue suddenly became cautious: "What's with that look in your eyes?"
Fang Zhou suddenly moved behind Ling Xiaoyue, ingratiatingly massaging her: "Master, is there really no way to extract your pay-to-win system from your body? Like executing the host upon task failure or something?"
Ling Xiaoyue instantly flared up and kicked Fang Zhou away: "Get lost, I knew you, little rascal, had no good intentions, wanting my system is out of the question, not in this life, or the next, heck, tut!"
Fang Zhou flew back again, seeing Ling Xiaoyue ready to strike, quickly said: "Wait, don't get angry, I have another question to ask."
Ling Xiaoyue raised an eyebrow: "What is it?"
Fang Zhou took a deep breath, putting on a serious expression: "I recently encountered the reincarnated Divine Soul of a Beiming Heavenly Phoenix; it said you were the Master of the Moon Palace. What's going on?"
