"Xiao Ba, do you have any ideas?" Nan Wusi was overjoyed and couldn't help but shout out. She never expected that Xiao Ba would have a solution.
“However, this will require the host to pay a price,” Xiao Ba emphasized.
“I’m willing to pay any price,” Nanwu said without hesitation.
"Even if it means turning back into that ugly monster from the beginning?" Xiao Ba asked.
“Yes, that’s fine. What good is beauty if it’s worth it to save Second Brother’s life.” Nan Wusi said firmly.
"Then I will now remove all of the host's beauty bonuses, and then the system shop will display something that can save Nan Wuyu's life." Xiao Ba just didn't want to see her host so depressed. Although she had only used a little bit of her authority without permission, as long as the price was high, it was feasible.
Sure enough, Nan Wusi immediately reverted to his appearance when he first transmigrated.
In Nan Wuyu's eyes, Nan Wusi, who had been shining brightly before, had now become dim. He truly felt that change in that instant.
Immediately, a pill appeared in Nan Wusi's hand.
"Second brother, take this quickly." Nan Wusi took a glass of water from the table and then mixed the pill with water for Nan Wuyu to take.
"Little sister, what is this?" Nan Wuyu asked after swallowing it, as the pill seemed to have appeared out of thin air.
"Shh, Second Brother, go to sleep for a while. I'll tell you when you wake up." Nan Wusi didn't tell Nan Wuyu, mainly because she didn't know how to explain it.
After taking the pill, Nan Wuyu did feel sleepy and soon fell into a deep sleep.
After Nan Wuyu fell asleep, Nan Wusi checked her attributes and found that all her appearance attributes had dropped to level zero. Nan Wusi shook her head with a wry smile; it seemed she would have to start all over again.
This feeling of going back to square one is really unpleasant, but fortunately, she has this opportunity to save her second brother.
"Xiao Ba, thank you." This was the first time Nan Wusi had sincerely thanked Xiao Ba.
"You're welcome." Xiao Ba's tone seemed to carry a hint of warmth.
"Host, keep it up!"
"I will," Nan Wusi said silently in his heart.
After learning that her second brother was alright, Nan Wusi felt much better, but now her anger was burning again.
It's all the fault of the person behind it all, who made her lose so much beauty points. She can't swallow this anger until she gets justice.
After Nan Wusi opened the door, Ye Zi exclaimed with some surprise, "Miss, you've finally come out!"
"Yes, I'm sorry to have worried you, Ye Zi." Nan Wusi smiled at Ye Zi.
Ye Zi looked at the young lady in front of her and had a strange feeling. It seemed that the young lady should look like this, but she shouldn't look like this, which confused her.
Nan Wusi noticed the strange look in Ye Zi's eyes and sensed something was wrong. So he asked in his mind, "Xiao Ba, my appearance has changed so much. I feel like the people around me have noticed."
Logically, this situation shouldn't occur; the system should adjust how people around her perceive her based on her appearance.
"Host, when Xiao Ba just exchanged the pill, in addition to extracting your appearance value, it also used some of the system's energy, so its perception of other people is no longer as perfect." Xiao Ba's tone was somewhat listless.
"Will they really notice?" Nan Wusi's heart tightened. If someone did notice, she was afraid she would be arrested as a monster.
"I'm not so sure about Xiao Ba. If it's someone who is particularly familiar with and sensitive to the host, they might notice something. So the host needs to work hard and get their appearance back as soon as possible."
"Okay, I understand." Nan Wusi nodded. It seemed she needed to find a way to make money now.
At this moment, the female doctor from before came over carrying a bowl of medicine.
"Miss Nan, this is the medicine I prepared for Lord Nan. It has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying."
"Could you please feed my second brother for me? I need to go see His Highness Prince Yi now," Nan Wusi said to the female physician.
"Okay, Miss Nan." The female doctor said and then took the medicine inside.
Nan Wusi walked through the courtyard without any hindrance, but she didn't know where Xiao Yi was.
"Oh no, I forgot to ask where Xiao Yi is." Nan Wusi said with some annoyance.
Nan Wusi looked at Ye Zi, who could only shake her head. She had been guarding the door the whole time, so she naturally didn't know where Xiao Yi was.
Fortunately, Nanwusi ran into Xuanli on the road.
After learning that Nan Wusi was looking for her master, Xuan Li took her to the interrogation room.
"Your Highness, Miss Nan has arrived," Xuan Li announced inside.
Upon hearing the incessant screams, Nan Wusi realized where he was.
After Xuan Li finished announcing, the door opened, and Xiao Yi came out, wiping himself with a handkerchief in his hand.
Nan Wusi saw that his hands were still covered in blood. The snow-white handkerchief was instantly stained crimson.
"Wu Si, what are you doing here?" Xiao Yi was momentarily flustered.
"May I take a look?" Nan Wusi also wanted to know how Xiao Yi interrogated these assassins.
"Are you sure?" Xiao Yi didn't actually want Nan Wusi to see these things.
“Yes.” Nan Wusi affirmed. These people were closely related to the mastermind behind the scenes, and she wanted to hear them tell her who it was.
Upon entering the room, Nan Wusi was met with a strong stench of blood. She saw the assassin hanging in mid-air, looking like a man, and felt a wave of nausea.
However, she forcefully suppressed this feeling. She walked step by step toward the assassin and asked coldly, "Who exactly sent you to hunt us down?"
The assassin remained silent, pretending not to hear.
"You won't talk, huh? You're being stubborn, aren't you? Very well." Nan Wusi circled the assassin a few times and continued.
"Have someone find some honey."
"What do you need honey for?" Xiao Yi asked, somewhat curious.
"Find more, so you can cover this guy's whole body with it, and after half a day, ants and insects will surely come attracted by the fragrance."
"When the time comes, such a big piece of food here will definitely keep these little cuties happy for a long time."
"Just imagine what it would feel like to be covered in ants. It must be both painful and itchy. If you make a lot of cuts, they might even crawl up your ears, your mouth, and your wounds to your internal organs."
"Don't you think this is interesting?" Nan Wusi patted the assassin on the shoulder as he watched him tremble.
Turning around, he saw Xuan Li looking terrified and Xiao Yi looking astonished.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go!" Nan Wusi said to Xuan Li.
"Oh, okay, I'll go right away, I'll go right away." Xuan Li didn't expect Miss Nan to be so ruthless; he couldn't bear to even hear about it.
"No, no!" The assassin struggled violently and shouted, "I'll confess, I'll confess everything."
