Chapter 644: Butterfly Slave (11)

The male protagonist was somewhat nervous. The next second, he reached out to examine her body and discovered that she possessed the same sealing power as him. Could it be that the sealing power had been absorbed by Wen Wan? How could that be? He remembered what the person who sealed him had said: unless one of his descendants came here, no one could break the seal. Could Wen Wan be that person's descendant? The man reached out and grabbed Wen Wan's neck, clearly intending to kill her.

The next second, Wen Wan grabbed his fingers, "Brother~"

The male protagonist withdrew his power. If this person could really help him break the seal, then he would keep him for the time being.

He was simply using the other person, for no other reason.

Wen Wan had no idea that the male lead was going to kill her. When she woke up again, she was already in her own bed.

Xin Lai was watching over her, and as soon as she woke up, she rushed over, "Sister, you're awake!"

Wen Wan: "How did I get here? Where's my brother?"

"Master went to cultivate. This morning, Master carried my sister back. How come my sister came back with Master?"

Wen Wan recalled what had happened at the bottom of the lake.

"Nothing, I'm just hungry."

"I'll go make something for my sister right away," Xin Lai said and left.

Wen Wan sneered, "System, if you don't give me a reasonable explanation this time, I'm not doing this mission."

That bastard suddenly tricked her. Although she didn't look injured, she was in real pain.

System: [Host, I'm doing this for your own good. This way, even if the female lead comes, she won't surpass your position in the male lead's heart, which is more advantageous for you. Besides, your life is now entangled with the male lead's, so he can't possibly kill you in the future, otherwise he would suffer a severe backlash. Don't you think I'm protecting your life?]

[And this isn't without its advantages; would you like to try examining the Butterfly Slave Seal within your body?]

Wen Wan looked inside her body and found that the Butterfly Slave Seal located in her heart was completely still, just like a stagnant pool of water. It had been occasionally moving a while ago.

Even if the Demon King himself came, he couldn't easily enslave you to work for him. Isn't that the biggest advantage?

Wen Yan: "..."

It seems... that's pretty good, after all, it's better to have your own life in your own hands.

"Alright, I'll forgive you this time, but there will absolutely be no next time. Otherwise, I really won't do any more missions. We might as well die together. It's not like we haven't died before."

System: That day will never come. Give up.

You'll thank it later.

"By the way, what about those disciples from the immortal sects? Did they break through that restriction?"

Xin Lai: "They've broken through, and they're on the second level now. They're quite capable, but the second level might be much more dangerous for them."

Wen Wan nodded.

That means the female lead will get closer and closer to the male lead, so will I be able to leave this place soon?

It was something she had always dreamed of, but for some reason, Wen Wan didn't feel happy about being redeemed; in fact, she felt somewhat depressed.

At this moment, the male protagonist returned.

Wen Wan called out, "Brother, are you alright? I didn't disturb your seclusion, did I? I was thinking of helping you tear off those runes, but I didn't expect..."

Wen Wan felt very guilty.

It's really just an excuse to brush it off.

The male protagonist nodded.

Wen Wan looked at the white porcelain bottle in the male lead's hand and asked, "Brother, what's this?"

The male protagonist handed it to Wen Wan, who took it and opened it. A pleasant medicinal fragrance wafted out.

System: [A medicinal pill, and likely of high quality; it's for healing.]

Wen Wan: "Brother, are you injured?"

The male protagonist pointed at Wen Wan, and only then did Wen Wan realize that the pill was actually for her use, but she wasn't injured.

Wen Wan was about to put it away when she was stopped. "Brother, let me eat it?"

Wen Wan ate one; since it was a healing pill, she might as well treat it as a tonic.

Sure enough, the medicine really worked. Wen Wan felt comfortable all over, as if there was a real power repairing her body.

"Brother, aren't you angry with me? I won't be so willful next time."

Wen Wan looked at the male lead.

Were you born unable to speak?

Wen Wan also asked the system, "How come the male lead is mute?"

The system doesn't know either.

"If only you could talk, you'd be so good-looking. If you could talk, you'd charm countless girls."

Wen Wan had a heart attack just thinking about it.

The Chinese cabbage she grows.

"Brother, what are you planning to do if you break the seal?"

"Forget it, you can't even talk properly. Why should I ask you? Anyway, you have to take me with you wherever you go."

Wen Wan rambled on and on about a bunch of nonsense. During her time here, she had mastered how to talk to herself to pass the time.

Xin Lai quickly prepared a table full of food and brought it over. Wen Wan first served the male lead some food, and then started eating voraciously herself.

Only at this time is it the happiest time.

After finishing her meal, Wen Wan prepared to go check on the situation among the cultivators, but before she could leave, the male protagonist grabbed her wrist. "What's wrong?"

The male protagonist shook his head.

"You don't want me to leave?"

The male protagonist nodded.

Wen Wan: "Okay." We can go tomorrow; not much can happen in one day.

...

After a while, whether it was Wen Wan's imagination or not, the male protagonist spent less and less time in seclusion and became more and more dependent on her, wanting her to follow him around all the time, and even accompanying her to find food, which was just like being a bodyguard.

Wen Wan didn't even have a chance to find out what was going on.

The only option was to have Xin Lai secretly follow the female lead. Xin Lai didn't know why her sister cared so much about a human woman, but she still followed her diligently and didn't let anyone notice.

That day, Wen Wan was practicing swordsmanship outside, while the male protagonist was cultivating with his eyes closed when he received a message from Xin Lai summoning him.

Unless there is an emergency, Xinlai would not use this method to summon himself.

So Wen Wan called out to the male lead, but he didn't respond, so Wen Wan quietly slipped away.

Soon they arrived at the place Xinlai had summoned. Good heavens, a whole bunch of snakes! Wen Wan was terrified of snakes more than anything else in her life, especially so many of them. Even though the male protagonist's prototype was so handsome, Wen Wan was still afraid of them, let alone these snakes that looked so disgusting.

The female protagonist and her group, along with Chen Ling, were surrounded by a swarm of snakes.

"What happened?"

Xin Lai: "Bloodthirsty Serpent, these cultivators are in danger."

"Then hurry and save them!"

Xin Lai: "I can't beat them either, that's why I asked you to come up with a solution."

Wen Yan: "..."

"What's the point of coming if you can't even beat me?"

Xin Lai: "Sister, you can't do it, but Master can. Why don't we ask Master to help us?"

"What do you think?"

Xin Lai: "Impossible."

"What are these snakes afraid of? What are their weaknesses?" Wen Wan looked at the group of snakes below, feeling goosebumps all over her body. However, the most important thing now was to save people. Therefore, if she could find the weaknesses of these snakes, she could save them. Aren't these snakes afraid of realgar? She wondered if these mutated snakes were afraid of it.
