"No, listen to me first. There are practically no snakes as big as Rui in this world anymore. Where are we going to find a mother snake?"

"Where do they snakes live? Why can he transform into human form while other snakes can't? Stop talking nonsense. What will happen to him if he can't find his mother snake?"

"Cough, explode, die from body explosion!"

"So, in your previous life, even if Rui hadn't been shot to death, he would have eventually exploded and died, right?"

"That's probably a fair assessment."

Why didn't he kill Ye Xiangwan?

"Well, snakes also look for mates by smelling each other's scents. If the scents match, then..."

"Xiao Qi, you'll die if you don't trick me, won't you?"

Xiang Wan's face darkened, and her tone grew increasingly cold.

"No, I just happened to come across this while I was helping you find the soul fragments. It was definitely not intentional, you have to believe me!"

"007, do you know what your expression is like when you feel guilty?"

"What? This system is not guilty at all. This system is the best system in the world for you, Xiang Wan."

"Alright, let him explode if he wants. It'll be perfect for getting the soul fragments back, saving me from having to wait so long."

The system choked, then said angrily, "Xiang Wan, how can you be so heartless? He saved you and helped you a lot. How can you bear to watch him die like this?"

"He would have died anyway if I hadn't come, so why must I be the one to sacrifice myself?"

"You...you...you're really infuriating this system. If he explodes and dies, his soul fragments will scatter. Don't you want to collect them?"
