Although this incident sounds a bit horrifying, I have seen so many strange things on the way to Tangxi City that it is not that difficult to accept.

After watching Qin Xuezhen twisting and struggling on the ground for more than an hour, she gradually recovered.

"System, you told me that Tangxi City would like me and treat me very well. Everything I did for him today would be rewarded in the future."

"But you also heard me being held hostage. He actually let them kill me for the sake of the Iron Cavalry. Is that what you said?"

Tang Xicheng couldn't hear the system's reply, and could only gradually analyze from Qin Xuezhen's words that Qin Xuezhen helped him in order to make him love her and cherish her.

If I don't treat her well, will this woman just leave?

"No!"

Tang Xicheng secretly said "no", and then didn't say anything else. He just listened quietly to the conversation between Qin Xuezhen and the system.

[Host, this system has already reminded you that as the heroine of this plot, you will be fine. Even if the hero did this, it's because your emotional value is not high enough. Only when the emotional value reaches a certain level will a sweet love plot appear.]

"Shut up! Even if our affection doesn't reach the specified range, does that mean we don't have any feelings at all? He can sacrifice my life at will. Can't you see that?"

Qin Xuezhen started arguing with the system. After listening to his words, Tang Xicheng, who was hiding in the dark, quietly returned to their residence.

This place is said to be a residence, but in fact it is just a dilapidated cave.

They couldn't go back to Wengcheng, and they didn't dare to enter any cities along the way, for fear that someone was wanted for them.

After sitting in the cave for a while, Tang Xicheng suddenly stood up and went back.

Qin Xuezhen argued with the system for a long time, but in the end she couldn't come up with any results.

However, the fact remains that Qin Xuezhen must stay with Tangxi Cheng, otherwise if the system abandons her, she may die.

Given this situation, Qin Xuezhen had to compromise temporarily. However, the strong electric shock just now exhausted Qin Xuezhen's physical strength and eventually she lost consciousness.

When she woke up again, she found herself tied up in a cave, and Tang Xicheng was sitting opposite her, leisurely flipping the barbecue on the fire.

"Your Highness, why am I here? Why are you tying me up?"

Qin Xue was extremely nervous at this time. He could clearly feel that Tang Xicheng's eyes looking at him seemed to carry some kind of threat.

However, this inference was confirmed the next second.

"What is that thing in your body? Is it related to me?"

Qin Xuezhen knew that he was asking about the system, but how did this person know about the system?

So he was nearby the whole time, listening to the conversation between me and the system?

"Your Highness, what are you talking about? I feel a little...ah!"

Before Qin Xuezhen could finish her words, a sharp dagger flew over and stuck steadily next to her ear.

"I wouldn't ask you if I wasn't absolutely sure. Otherwise, why do you think I kept a piece of trash like you around?"

Qin Xue was a little bit surprised. She didn't expect the man in front of her to say such words.

"Your Highness, I have helped you all along the way, and I didn't hesitate to tear off your status as a rich girl. Are you just using me?"

Tang Xicheng sneered, his tone full of sarcasm when he spoke.

"A daughter of a noble family, well-educated and well-educated, would not abandon her family and flee with a prince of an unknown origin."

"Even a daughter of our family wouldn't be able to possess the skills you possess today. I don't care what you are, but from your conversation, I can tell that everything you do is related to me."

"What I want to do requires more help, and you happen to be able to provide it. I will keep you by my side just to see how much help you can provide."

Qin Xuezhen's dream was completely shattered. She thought it was her destiny and that the male protagonist would spend his whole life in love with her.

But who would have thought that everything was just an exploitation.

"Are you going to betray my sincerity towards you like this?"

"You are so soft-hearted! I am a noble king, born to fight against heaven and earth. How could I indulge in the personal affairs of my children? You know a lot about what's inside you, but you are a waste. If that's the case, hand over what's inside you, and I will make you live a life worse than death!"

As Tang Xicheng said this, the sword in his hand was against Qin Xuezhen's neck.

As the stinging pain came, Qin Xue could clearly feel that her skin was cut and even her blood vessels were injured.

"Don't kill me, Your Highness. I can't take what's inside me out. It's just that it's controlling me all along. I have the right to control it."

Qin Xue was really scared and cried. At this time, she was in a panic and started shouting at the system.

[System, please come out! He wants to kill me! Please help me! System, what good will it do you if I die?]

In response to Qin Xuezhen's repeated calls, the system finally appeared, and it was really able to contact the outside world, and the sound it emitted no longer came from Qin Xuezhen's heart.

[Ding, reminding the hero, you cannot kill the heroine, otherwise this system will not be able to help you! ]

When Tang Xicheng heard his voice, he was stunned for a moment. He looked around privately and found that there was no other person or thing. He could only ask Qin Xuezhen.

"Are you the system?"

[Yes, my mission is to help you achieve your goal with the help of the heroine. As your heroine, if she dies, it will be difficult for you to achieve your goal.]

"So this king wants to keep this stupid woman?"

[This system cannot leave its fixed host. Although it is truly foolish, it can help us connect. The system can remind you that according to the original trajectory, you should have been the emperor who unified all nations. Now that an outsider has disrupted this trajectory, this system is responsible for repairing it.]

Hearing that he could become the emperor who would unify all the countries, Tangxicheng became happy.

"Now that things have come to this, what should I do?"

[Host and the protagonist please go to Wancheng! ]

At the same time, Yao Guangyue, who was lying lazily in the carriage, also received a message from the system.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for reaching a 47% plot collapse value. 3% of this value came from the destruction of the Iron Cavalry Army, which eliminated the core force that led to the Yaoguang Kingdom's final defeat. Please continue your efforts, host.]

Yao Guangyue was extremely happy when she heard the system's voice again.

[System, you're back. I haven't heard from you in a few days. Are you okay?]

[Of course it's fine. The host completed the mission very well. This system has sufficient energy and returned early!]

【Very good!】

[However, I would like to remind the host that the next challenge will be even more difficult. Please keep up the good work!]
