Chapter 2 The Witch Boy 1

Xu Qiuqiu opened her eyes again. She looked around at the scene: a simple bamboo house with some food on the side. She looked at her body and saw that she was wearing a light blue ancient costume.

It's so simple, she's not going to transmigrate into a farming novel, the kind where you get rich by farming, right?

Xu Qiuqiu called out to the system, "003, are you there?"

"Yes, host," an electronic voice rang in Xu Qiuqiu's mind.

"I forgot to ask earlier, what kind of system are you? What tasks do I need to complete? What is the storyline?" Xu Qiuqiu asked.

"Host, I am the Abused Heroine System. All you have to do is go through the story of the abusive heroine once to complete your mission. It's very simple!" 003 said.

"A female protagonist who suffers abuse? What kind of plot is that?" She had a bad feeling.

"Host, I'm sending you the story now. It will hurt a little, but you'll get points for completing missions, which will allow me to upgrade the system. Then I'll be able to shield you from pain!" The electronic voice got a little excited as it spoke.

Next, Xu Qiuqiu felt a severe headache, and she fainted on the ground from the pain. A series of memories and plot events entered her mind.

This is a tragic romance novel. The female protagonist is named Xu Xiaoqiu, and the male protagonist is named Qi Gunan. Xu Xiaoqiu is an outlier in the Hehuan Sect. She is unwilling to learn the Hehuan Sect's techniques because the Hehuan Sect's techniques require a man to perform dual cultivation to clear the channels, otherwise it is easy to go astray and become possessed by evil spirits.

Xu Xiaoqiu was unwilling to learn this kind of martial arts, which resulted in her having virtually no martial arts skills. However, she wanted to see the outside world, and as soon as she went out, she was captured and almost sold to a brothel. Fortunately, the male protagonist, Qi Gu Nan, happened to pass by and rescued her.

Xu Xiaoqiu had little experience, and besides, Qi Gunan was so handsome, so she fell in love with him immediately and insisted on following him no matter what.

Actually, Qi Gunan didn't save her out of kindness. It was just because Xu Xiaoqiu looked remarkably like Wu Qingqing, the white moonlight that Qi Gunan liked, and he was also being pestered by Xu Xiaoqiu. Whenever he looked at Xu Xiaoqiu's face, he would think of Wu Qingqing.

So Qi Gunan made Xu Xiaoqiu comb her hair into the same style as Wu Qingqing, wear simple and elegant clothes, and even speak in the same soft and gentle voice as Wu Qingqing. But Xu Xiaoqiu didn't know this. She thought Qi Gunan liked her like this, so she naturally did as he said.

Actually, the stand-in trope isn't really that big of a deal. The main point is that after Qi Gu Nan learned that she was the Holy Maiden of the Hehuan Sect, he tricked her into taking her home, but in reality, it was to save his beloved white moonlight, Wu Qing Qing.

Isn't the premise of angst novels all about physical and emotional torment? The reason Xu Xiaoqiu was able to become a saintess was mainly because of her special constitution. She was born with extraordinary bones and would never go astray when practicing martial arts. Then, the medicinal ingredient that Wu Qingqing needed was the heart's blood of someone with extraordinary bones.

Qi Gunan tricked Xu Xiaoqiu into returning to the Sacred Medicine Valley. To avoid being discovered by anyone, he placed her in a small wooden house in the bamboo forest of the maze, checking on her from time to time. Qi Gunan planned to trick Xu Xiaoqiu into giving him her heart's blood after he had found all the medicinal herbs, and then use it to save his beloved Wu Qingqing.

Later, he successfully tricked Xu Xiaoqiu into giving him her heart's blood. Xu Xiaoqiu, looking weak and recovering from her injuries, was overjoyed and waited for Qi Gunan to come and marry her. However, she was met by Wu Qingqing, who mocked her for being delusional and said that she was just a substitute.

Heartbroken, Xu Xiaoqiu wanted to leave. When Qi Gunan learned that Xu Xiaoqiu wanted to leave, he felt inexplicably annoyed and didn't want her to leave, so he forced himself on her and slept with her.

When Wu Qingqing found out, she was very angry and would come to torment her from time to time. Qi Gunan knew that Xu Xiaoqiu's injuries were caused by Wu Qingqing, but he watched coldly. Every time he came to find Xu Xiaoqiu, it was to force her to have sex with him. Xu Xiaoqiu was about to have a mental breakdown from being tormented by the two of them. In despair, she burned down the small wooden house.

When Qi Gunan saw the small wooden house burned to ashes, he went completely mad. It turned out that he had always had Xu Xiaoqiu in his heart. He loved Xu Xiaoqiu. Qi Gunan was filled with resentment. He tortured Wu Qingqing until she was unrecognizable, and then went to Xu Xiaoqiu's grave every day to weep bitterly.

Actually, Xu Xiaoqiu didn't die. She was rescued by Qi Chen, Qi Gunan's cousin. Later, Xu Xiaoqiu and Qi Gunan met again, and Qi Gunan began his pursuit of her. Then the two got together.

After reading the entire plot, Xu Qiuqiu was so angry she almost fell ill. "What kind of melodramatic nonsense is this? How can they even be together?"

"003, are you sure I want to go through the whole storyline? Am I crazy? He forced me, lied to me, ripped out my heart's blood, used me as a substitute, tortured me every day, and I'm supposed to forgive him and be with him? I'd rather kill him. Just reading the storyline almost made me die of anger!"

Xu Qiuqiu now feels she's been tricked and is so frustrated that she wants to kill the male lead with her own hands. This system is too much of a rip-off; she'd rather die than follow this kind of plot.

"I'd rather die than follow the plot!"

003 was extremely aggrieved. It didn't tell its host about its system at first because it was afraid the host wouldn't accept it. After all, it was created by the main god, and while other systems could quickly find hosts, no one wanted it. So it had always been an initial system.

It finally managed to sign up with a host, and it felt like its spring had arrived. But now the host would rather die than do any tasks. What should it do?

"Host, I'm sorry..."

For some reason, Xu Qiuqiu was able to hear the grievance in 003's electronic voice.

"Host, you are my first host. I like you very much. Although I know that my system is not popular, I didn't tell you the truth at the beginning. I'm sorry, host."

Xu Qiuqiu was someone who responded better to gentle persuasion than force. Seeing 003's pitiful appearance, she immediately lost her temper. However, she was still unwilling to follow the plot. "Can you change the plot?"

003 didn't want to lose its host, so it hesitated and said, "Host, I'll go ask the Supreme God and see if I can apply for one."

"I hope your god will agree." She didn't know what kind of strange thought process 003's god had. It was one thing to make a system, but to make a system for a female protagonist who suffers in a sadomasochistic novel, and the tasks were also perverted. Following the plot of the book, waiting to be tortured both physically and mentally, she thought it was extremely perverted.

After waiting for most of the day, Xu Qiuqiu picked up a sesame seed cake from the table out of boredom and started eating it. It was quite hard. Is this all the scumbag male lead is feeding Xu Qiuqiu?

Xu Xiaoqiu is still infatuated with him; if it were her, she would have told Qi Gunan to get lost long ago.

Thinking back to her world, where she had never suffered any hardship or loss, Xu Qiuqiu felt that the female lead was incredibly foolish. She was clearly a natural martial arts prodigy, yet she was unwilling to learn.

Although she felt that the martial arts of the Hehuan Sect were not harmonious, had she forgotten that she was born with extraordinary talent and could practice martial arts without the help of men? As a result, she was bullied and powerless, and could only be quietly abused by the male lead and female supporting character in turn.
