Now That You Know I Was Right, Why Are You All Apologizing Now?

"Su Nian, you've conspired with the demon clan, murdered fellow disciples, and the evidence is conclusive. Yet you still refuse to repent! For the sake of your contributions to the sect, we...

Chapter 180 Cooperation (Two chapters combined, 4k words)

The soul fire entered Ye Yixuan's body, and she felt a surge of heat all over her body, as if she were about to be burned to ashes, causing her unbearable pain.

She lay on the ground, clutching her stomach and rolling around until she finally recovered, covered in sweat, after a long time.

She stood up again, wiping the sweat from her forehead. "Are you satisfied with these now?"

"Okay, that's fine." Su Nian nodded.

"That's fine then..."

"Now, let's get down to business," Su Nian asked Ye Yixuan seriously. "Do you have any good ideas on how to deal with the Ghost Immortal?"

With the blessing of the Soul Flame, Ye Yixuan was unable to lie to Su Nian.

She thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I don't know."

Su Nian frowned. "Is it that you don't know, or that you don't understand your system well enough?"

“I don’t understand my system well enough.” Ye Yixuan gave a wry smile. “Although my female body came to this world a long time ago, the system came with my male body. Over the years, my cognition, lifestyle, and so on have become more feminine. I am rather unfamiliar with the system and the use of my male body.”

"I don't care about your male body, I only care about your system," Su Nian said calmly.

“Okay, actually there’s another possibility, which I’ve never tried,” Ye Yixuan shrugged.

"What?"

"I will receive a reward from the system if I succeed in the mission, but I don't know if there is any penalty for failing the mission."

Su Nian pondered for a moment and asked, "Have you never failed?"

"No." Ye Yixuan shook her head and said, "The tasks issued by the system are all tasks that I am sure I can complete. No matter how difficult they are, I will definitely be able to do them."

Su Nian found something strange. "Are you sure you can do it? What if you encounter uncontrollable factors?"

"It's the same. As long as it's a task issued by the system, no matter how tortuous the process is, the result is the same." Ye Yixuan helplessly spread her hands.

"I've tried it many times."

"how so……"

Just as Su Nian was reeling and muttering to herself, Mo Rouyun suddenly spoke.

"It's probably because her system determines the process based on the result, right?"

Su Nian frowned deeply, "Give us the results first, then the process?"

Mo Rouyun nodded slightly. "Yes, Ye Yixuan's system is also related to the immortal who controls destiny. Even if she can do things that violate the system, she should be able to complete the task in most cases."

Su Nian frowned and asked, "In most cases... then there are a small number of exceptions?"

Mo Rouyun nodded. "It should be. After all, her system was created by the immortals, so theoretically it shouldn't violate their way of thinking. As long as we can break out of this mindset and find possibilities that even the immortals haven't thought of, we can break this system."

"But... how exactly do I go against the system and fail the mission?" Su Nian asked Ye Yixuan, stroking her chin. "What mission has the system assigned you right now?"

Ye Yixuan answered honestly, "The task assigned by the system is very vague. The task I have received is to advance to the Mahayana stage."

Su Nian suddenly drew her sword and said indifferently, "What if I were to destroy your spiritual root now?"

Ye Yixuan felt as if facing a formidable enemy and retreated several steps.

He was about to make his move, but just as the sword tip touched Ye Yixuan's forehead, the latter suddenly shouted, "It's no use! Even if you cripple my cultivation now, I will trigger a fortuitous encounter and obtain a spiritual root that is no less powerful than my current one!"

Su Nian stopped, the tip of the sword resting on Ye Yixuan's forehead.

He sheathed his longsword, frowning slightly. "How can you be so sure?"

Seeing Su Nian stop, Ye Yixuan breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest, and said, still shaken, "Because I tested it with a male body before."

"Is that so..."

Su Nian fell into deep thought again.

Mo Rouyun walked slowly from behind him, gently patted Su Nian's shoulder, and said softly, "Nian'er, don't be anxious. I have a connection with Su Liuli. According to the information she has sent, the Ghost Immortal has not yet found this generation. We still have some time. We can slowly study the matter of the Destiny System."

Su Nian nodded.

He then raised an eyebrow slightly and asked Mo Rouyun, "How is my master's situation now?"

Mo Rouyun shook her head and said, "Although she is now very strong, she is still no match for the Ghost Immortal. Therefore, she fled after a few rounds of fighting. The Ghost Immortal has been searching for our world ever since, but the universe is vast and it is not easy to find us. Moreover, under Su Liuli's deliberate guidance, he went in the opposite direction and will not be able to find us for a while."

"I see, I understand now."

Su Nian looked down at Ye Yixuan and said sternly, "Your life is now in my hands. With just a thought, you can be reduced to ashes at any time. But you can rest assured that I am a man of my word. As long as you cooperate with us and do not have any wicked thoughts, I will send you home after we have destroyed the evil immortal."

Ye Yixuan leaned against the door and took a deep breath. "Okay...you said it yourself, you have to keep your word!"

"Of course."

...

In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.

The Emperor was extremely pleased over the past month. Since their wedding, Su Nian had been confirmed as the Prince Consort of the Demon Clan and had become the commander-in-chief of the Demon Army's First Army.

At this point, Su Nian was officially branded as a traitor to the human race.
