Question: You transmigrated to become the evil big boss of a murder mystery game right after the final scene. What kind of ending will you face?
Yu Ling: Thanks for the invitation, I know thi...
But it's not good for your own things to keep running away.
Nan Yuxiu also cares about his reputation. His thoughts are so complicated that they could fill a book. He doesn't show it on his face or say it out loud. On the contrary, Yuling feels that he likes that he doesn't bother her, so she goes back even less often.
Zhang Xiaofan, who was used as a communicator between the two sides: Life is tough, but he endured it so that he could obediently follow this devil and do practical things for him, instead of harming innocent locals.
Zhang Xiaofan has started systematically making trouble for the wild host, while Yu Ling has focused more on Lan Si. She treats Lan Si as her little brother, who is responsible for providing her with money, effort, and ideas, while she just needs to have fun, since he is not without pay anyway.
He sold the things he got from Lan Si to Xiaomi as his own, and then bought things from Xiaomi that the protagonist didn't need and gave them away to Lan Si, making a fortune.
Yu Ling liked to profit from the difference between the two sides, and he even managed to trick both sides into buying a lot of his dusty ghost candles. The energy he accumulated was increasing, and he could even condense a virus entity without using his own body.
However, the minimum time limit for the year's mission has not yet been reached, so Yu Ling wants to keep a low profile and wait until she has had enough fun before making any decisions.
With the addition of Lan Si and Ke Lao, the spending level of the five-person group has been raised to another level. However, his casual remark has really had an impact. Looking at their destination, Yu Ling seems to be heading more and more towards the Shanghai Kingdom, which is ruled by Guan Yue in name only.
Lan Si didn't know who started it, and he only realized belatedly that the group had gone astray. Further ahead was Cangyang's territory, where a fight was said to be taking place. If they took a detour to a more distant place to stay, the only option was Hu Kingdom. However, Guan Yue, who was the Empress of Hu Kingdom, had already been sidelined by the transmigrators of the pirated version of the system. They couldn't really help her become the real emperor again, could they?
Although it's not that he can't do it, this isn't a privilege that the natives can experience for free, unless... the other party is the beauty Yu Ling.
Lan Si seized an opportunity to ask Yu Ling, "Hey, are you really going to 'rebel' for Guan Yue? She can't afford to pay us for ordering us around."
Moreover, this empress seems to enjoy life, with a kind of carefree and nonchalant attitude, somewhat like she's been infected by Yu Ling's ways.
"I think she doesn't want to be the emperor anymore. Wouldn't it be more fun to be a rich wanderer and live a carefree life?"
Yu Ling and Guan Yue hadn't chatted much, but the reason they hadn't broken up after being together for so long was simply because Guan Yue hadn't shown even the slightest hint of ambition.
Moreover, although Lan Si and the Kryptonite spent the majority of the money, she didn't take any advantage of it. She was just as eager to spend money, leaving herself no way out.
"So what you mean is?"
The kryptonite is really serious about the rebellion. Lan Si has so many favors to offer, so it's not easy for him to confront the situation directly. Even if he did, Yu Ling would have to explain. With his top-tier looks in the cultivation world, and even in women's/androgynous attire, Lan Si is confident that the kryptonite won't be angry with him at all.
Yu Ling was very carefree: "If we're going to rebel, then let's rebel! The four of us will draw lots, and whoever draws the winning lot will become the emperor."
He's not going to take such a demanding job anyway. In this world, none of the three thousand beauties in the harem are as good-looking as him. The main characters are all ordinary, and Lan Si is a system without any emotions. Only his inherited host, Nan Yuxiu, is pleasing to the eye.
Lan Si didn't care at all; whether he became emperor or not wouldn't affect his ability to make money. Besides, eliminating the piracy regime was also a way to earn extra income. Yu Ling could just be a participant if she wanted to: "Let's do it your way."
With Yu Ling unwilling to get involved in making decisions, Ke Lao, Lan Si, and Guan Yue all unanimously assumed that Yu Ling was the one who wanted to rebel and become emperor.
Guan Yue, in particular, firmly believed that her country was in complete chaos. It desperately needed capable ordinary people to rescue the people from their dire straits!
The transmigrators with the wild system didn't care about the reputation of the ancient world, but they used cheats to control a bunch of people with real power and give them backdoors to play infrastructure games. The empress identity couldn't be chosen, which is how she escaped a disaster.
This country is doomed sooner or later. Even if such a beautiful emperor like Yu Ling ascends the throne, it won't tarnish the reputation of their Hu Kingdom. Besides, I can return to my own country without having to confront them alone. It couldn't be better!
Most importantly.
She's always shipped Yu Ling and Lan Si as a couple. If Yu Ling becomes the emperor, won't Lan Si become the prime minister? Wow! How exciting!
Guan Yue learned the art of ruling from a young age and was extremely sensitive to matters of the court. She would contribute her strength in return for the two wealthy men who provided money, determined to settle scores with the otherworldly people in Hu Kingdom who lacked martial ethics.
When Yu Ling saw how enthusiastic Guan Yue was, she unexpectedly went to help her out.
Such an enthusiastic and capable subordinate deserves our full support. Once Guan Yue has real power, he won't need to help Nan Yuxiu and Zhang Xiaofan deal with Cangyang anymore. He can just relax and do nothing.
He helped me with that!
Little did they know that his kind offer only made the three of them more certain of one thing.
Yu Ling! She wants to be the emperor!
We don't usually see him wanting anything in particular, but he suddenly asks for something this big, though we have the means to support him.
Moreover, their attraction to Yu Ling was primarily based on her looks, but they were captivated by her talent. They were happy to have such a talented and charming person as emperor!
This plane is experiencing another upheaval.
The first time was when Zhang Xiaofan and Nan Yuxiu fought fiercely, but it affected many pirated and genuine versions of the game, which were all destroyed, and the transmigrators were forced to return.
The second time is when Zhang Xiaofan and Nan Yuxiu jointly attacked and conquered Cangyang Kingdom. They are currently fighting, and there is no result yet; it is ongoing.
The third time...
You might not believe it, but this time a group of wealthy people launched a vicious attack on Shanghai's economic market. All issues related to buying and selling collapsed into chaos, and those who were "manipulated" to deal with the matter basically never returned.
The wild players couldn't sit still. They came from interstellar space, so of course they knew the whales. But the whales didn't discriminate against pirates. They'd been getting along peacefully for so long, so why were they suddenly causing trouble?
Those hosts can die and go back to the interstellar plane to live a carefree life, but the system can be gone in an instant. The life of a wild system is also a life. It's not their fault that they were created by a black-hearted workshop, so why target them!
These wild leaders are all very principled. Except for a few unlucky ones who were tricked by their hosts, they helped Yu Ling complete the side quest and leveled up the progress to (3/10). The other leaders all banded together to face Yu Ling together.
Then, they went to find Yu Ling together in a menacing manner... and quite forcefully sent their respective hosts away by themselves.
Yu Ling, who thought she was about to show off her skills and make a name for herself: ? ? ? Internal strife?
