Xavier's eyes lit up; he hadn't expected this upgrade to come at such a convenient time.
But, calculating the time, it was almost due. Now, gaining a million popularity points didn't seem so difficult.
Xavier also took the opportunity to check the system's other functions.
Guest Time: 14 hours (Refreshed)
Invitable People: 0 / 32
Blue Star and Teyvat Two-Way Travel (Can stay for 14 hours)
Now, whether he went to Teyvat or others came to him, they could stay for 14 hours.
This amount of time was relatively quite ample.
Even if they came at 8 AM, they could stay until 8 PM.
As for the number of people, it had now reached 32.
Now, it could be said that he could invite whoever he wanted, no longer needing to worry about insufficient slots.
Ding! Host, please complete a live broadcast in Teyvat within 7 days. Upon success, you will receive a mysterious reward!
Xavier's eyes lit up; he hadn't expected the system to assign him a task, but this task was somewhat demanding.
"You guy, Teyvat doesn't even have internet, how am I supposed to broadcast live?!"
Host, please don't worry. The system has already considered this. Please exchange for a Sky Net Card in the mall!
Xavier really wanted to punch this system. After all that, he still had to use popularity points to exchange for it.
This guy really wouldn't let him exploit even a single hair.
Xavier opened the system and found that there really was a Sky Net Card in the system mall.
He had noticed this thing when he browsed before, but he hadn't looked at it in detail.
Fortunately, this card wasn't expensive, costing only 10,000 popularity points.
Now, Xavier was considered a rich man, so these mere 10,000 points were, of course, nothing to him.
Sky Net Card: Can connect to the internet across planes. Mom no longer has to worry about my internet card!
Although the description was short, its function was relatively very powerful.
This meant that even in Teyvat, he could connect to Blue Star's internet, and it would definitely be quite smooth.
If he had this thing, he estimated he could beat Klinger to death during the trial for wronging him!
"Hey, Xavier, what are you grinning like an idiot about?!"
Furina waved her hand in front of Xavier's eyes, noticing that after Xavier uploaded the video, he just stood there blankly for a few seconds.
"Nothing, I just thought of something happy. You don't need to mind me."
Xavier finally pulled his thoughts back, but a smile still hung on his lips.
"Tch, I really don't know what kind of messy things you think about all day. Just don't have any ideas about me, that's all."
Xavier angrily said, "What do you mean, 'have ideas about you'? Am I that kind of person?!"
"Hmph, your room is full of my merchandise. I don't believe that you wouldn't have ideas about me!"
Furina crossed her arms over her chest, looking as if she had seen through Xavier.
"Alright, then I'll have ideas about you right now and make your dream come true!"
Xavier gritted his teeth; this was a case of Get angry out of shame (being shamed into anger).
"Help, he's hitting me!"
Furina quickly ran away, but unfortunately, Xavier's strength had greatly increased now. How could a small Furina escape him?
In just a blink of an eye, Xavier appeared in front of Furina and pressed her onto the sofa.
Their posture was somewhat strange, a little ambiguous.
Xavier held her shoulders, their eyes meeting.
For a moment, Xavier actually forgot to move and forgot why he was chasing Furina.
And Furina was also a bit stunned, seemingly not knowing what she should do next.
"Ding-a-ling!"
But just then, a phone call interrupted this strange atmosphere.
Xavier cursed inwardly. This kind of feeling was rare and hard to come by. He really didn't know which fellow had interrupted his good thing.
"Hello, who is this?" Seeing it was an unfamiliar number, Xavier was even more annoyed.
"Is that Xiao Xuan?" A strange yet familiar voice came from the phone.
It was strange because he hadn't heard this voice in a long time, and familiar because he had heard it when he was very young.
"Uncle?" Xavier asked tentatively.
The other party's voice came again: "It's me. It must have been 10 years since we last met, right?"
Xavier nodded, expressionlessly saying, "About that. So, is there something you called about?"
Although Xavier originally didn't belong to this world, there was no difference between the two worlds.
In other words, the experiences and memories of this world were exactly the same as his previous ones.
Including his family situation.
"Xavier's great-grandfather passed away. Come back."
Xavier's uncle's words, though brief, were extremely impactful.
He suddenly remembered the white-haired old man, whose smile was so kind.
The reason he hadn't seen his uncle for so long was that the two families had always had a strained relationship.
Originally, Xavier's parents had built a house in their hometown, but his uncle found a way to take the house.
What was even more infuriating was that Xavier's grandfather even helped his uncle speak.
Xavier's great-grandfather was old after all and had no say in the family.
So, Xavier's parents, in a fit of anger, came to Jiangcheng.
Their struggle was relatively smooth, and they gradually started to see some improvement.
Unfortunately, they encountered a car accident, leaving Xavier with only tens of thousands of yuan in inheritance.
"I understand." Xavier remained silent for more than 10 seconds before replying to the other party.
"Xavier, what's wrong?"
Furina saw that Xavier's mood was not very high after he hung up the phone, so she asked.
"Nothing, it's just that I might have to go back to my hometown tomorrow."
"Hometown? Aren't you from Jiangcheng?"
Furina was very surprised by this, as Xavier had never mentioned anything about it.
"No." Xavier shook his head and said, "My hometown is in a village. Sigh, anyway, it's nothing important. You need to be good at home tomorrow and don't cause any trouble for me."
"Hmph! What kind of talk is that? It's clearly Hu Tao who likes to cause trouble!"
"Yes, yes, yes, Hu Tao likes to cause trouble, and you just follow her and cause trouble together, right?"
Xavier couldn't help but laugh. Furina was too easily swayed; she believed whatever Hu Tao said.
"You're not allowed to talk about me! If you do, I'm going to make a fuss!" Furina lay on the sofa, kicking her legs continuously.
Xavier, who had been feeling a bit down, immediately burst into laughter.
No matter how unbearable the past memories were, it was enough that things were good now.
"Xavier." Furina suddenly stopped fussing and sat up straight.
"Hmm?"
"How about I go with you?"
Xavier was startled. He hadn't expected Furina to actually offer to accompany him back to his hometown.
Perhaps it was because she sensed that he had a hint of unease in his heart.
