Quick Transmigration: The New City is the Main System
Within the spacetime rift, all was dim and motionless, and everything seemed to stand still, including the human body suspended within it.
Cen Ji's eyes were tightly closed, his sharp-featured face expressionless, as if he were completely immersed in a dream.
But for him, this dream had been too long ago, and it wasn't that wonderful.
He always played with that world with an arrogant attitude, and his so-called chosen one, his junior brother, ultimately ended up being banished and dying a miserable death.
He has taken control of the sect and is about to marry Qi An'an.
Joyful music played, and red silk lanterns adorned the scene. It was clearly a festive day, yet not a single person on the entire Xianfeng Peak was smiling.
Even his bride walked towards him numbly.
Cen Ji used his sword to lift her veil, revealing her pale, puppet-like beautiful face.
He was disappointed. How could she have become like this?
Isn't she the one who loves to laugh the most?
He grabbed her chin, forcing her to look at him.
The faces were familiar, yet they seemed so strange.
His hand moved to her slender neck, his fingertips gently caressing it, as if he were petting his own little pet.
In stark contrast to his gentle movements, he exuded an uncontrollable aura of malevolence.
"Are you trying to kill me?" Her voice was weak, and she blinked gently, but there was no fear in her eyes.
She seemed to have known this outcome all along, and was simply facing it calmly.
Cen Ji's expression changed slightly, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
Qi An'an had asked him the same question, but her eyes now held a hint of mockery, as if she had seen through him.
He disliked the way she looked at him, as if she had always treated him like a toy that could be discarded at will.
Cen Ji leaned down, their faces almost touching.
Qi An'an tried to back away, but he tightened his grip on her neck and pulled her back.
Lightly, his lips landed on the corner of her mouth.
"Qi An'an" did not move again.
Cen Ji was also stunned.
The feelings he had never understood and had resisted all along suddenly expanded and swelled.
He recalled that when he was still Ji Yu, he was often swayed by such feelings.
That's possessiveness.
He becomes wary and angry when he sees a man around her, and wants to keep her firmly by his side so that she only has eyes for him.
But Ji Yu was different from him. Ji Yu was young and impetuous but sincere, and he was not afraid to lay his heart bare in front of her.
Cen Ji buried those thoughts under the snow where the sun never shines, and he himself was afraid to admit it.
He likes Qi An'an.
Back when they were still in the sect, he, like the other junior brothers, would find his gaze unconsciously drawn to her.
A pretty young girl was obsessed with beggar's chicken. She stayed up late into the night and almost burned down the whole mountain just to have a meal with it.
Her master was furious, but many people still begged for her mercy.
While she knelt in the Discipline Hall like a kitten, he stood outside all night, driving away those who tried to save her.
As the night deepened and the dew grew heavier, Cen Ji's white robes were soaked through, and the fabric on his back was faintly tinged with blood.
His gaze remained fixed on that slender figure until dawn broke.
The person inside slowly got up, and he turned and left.
The man who had been kneeling all night quickly caught up with him, spreading his arms to block him. His cheeks were still covered in soot, which made his eyes look even darker and brighter.
"Senior brother, thank you for pleading for me."
Cen Ji remained expressionless. "I didn't."
But she suddenly attacked him. He instinctively dodged to the side, and the branch she was holding pressed against his back. She smiled innocently, "Senior brother, you're bleeding."
Cen Ji suddenly stepped back, his face still showing a serious indifference and distance. "Go back and reflect on your actions."
"Alright, thank you for your hard work, senior brother." She didn't linger for a moment, dropping the branch and running away.
After her figure disappeared, Cen Ji withdrew his gaze. More and more blood seeped from the wound on his back, and the excruciating pain made his face turn ashen.
The trouble she caused last night, if really investigated, can't be forgiven by kneeling all night.
He took the blame, so naturally he would be punished...
Cen Ji recalled countless times that day when he was being whipped without a trace of hesitation or resentment; he was even grateful that he could still protect her.
He felt a secret joy and satisfaction.
Seeing that she was unharmed and still laughing and joking with her junior brother without a care in the world, he felt inexplicably annoyed again.
She maintained good relationships with most people; perhaps in her eyes, he was just an unimportant senior brother who seemed very strict.
After realizing that his emotions were easily influenced by her, he never gave her a kind look again.
Even after discovering her identity as a demon, he felt anger and disappointment, but he finally had a legitimate reason to face her.
For ten years, he did nothing but cultivate and search for her.
That period was very boring, but it remains etched in his memory.
It wasn't until after his death that he realized Qi An'an actually knew everything; she even knew how much he cared about her.
This is what Cen Ji finds most difficult to accept.
As an outsider, she watched him take care of her in what he thought was a discreet way, watched him be sacrificed as cannon fodder, and finally said lightly, "Anyway, you're dead now, so let bygones be bygones. You can stay with me from now on, and I'll treat you well."
From then on, he completely suppressed his feelings for her, and only felt resentment towards her.
Cen Ji thought to herself, if only she had explained it to him back then, he would have listened...
But she didn't say anything, and she didn't care about his feelings.
Only after tasting the tears did Cen Ji come to his senses.
That familiar face was so close, it felt as if he could pull her into his arms at any moment.
Actually, this wasn't the first time he had married her.
He had traveled through this world many times, and he knew clearly that the person in front of him was not the Qi An'an he loved.
This isn't even a real little world.
It's just an illusion.
001 was trying to trap him here in this way.
But this trick was successful.
Even though Cen Ji knew she was fake, he chose to stay and relive this false world again and again.
"Then kill me." Qi An'an's eyes were wet with physiological tears, and her voice was no longer as clear as before.
"I will grant your wish."
Cen Ji lowered his eyes, no longer looking at her face, and suddenly tightened his grip on her neck!
A faint sound of bones breaking came from behind. Cen Ji pulled the limp woman into his arms, buried his handsome face in her neck, and whispered, "I'm sorry, Qi An'an."
The person in my arms grew lighter and then disappeared, and the bright red before my eyes gradually faded away...
Cen Ji opened his eyes and saw only endless darkness.
Quick Transmigration Scheme.
Qi An sat solemnly on the throne, surrounded by a huge crowd that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Everyone was gathered here because they were to be moved to the new city today.
"Does it really need such a big fuss?" Nangong Xin leaned against the armrest like he had no bones. "It's just changing the location, isn't it? ...Can't we just change the setting for our tender moments?"
He wasn't used to being called Wen Cun.
But if it doesn't bark, it's bound to be unlucky for a while.
Under pressure, he reluctantly admitted that the other party was a person.
They unanimously agreed that Wen Nian was narrow-minded.
Qi An'an: "It's a new city, after all. It can't be built casually. To prevent people from being accidentally treated as junk data, it's more convenient to transfer them collectively."
Nangong Xin: "..."
The others also fell silent.
The main system is not omnipotent. At least for a while, they all thought that Cen Ji might be able to control the Quick Transmigration Situation.
Qi An'an sensed something, and then saw a red light flash and a figure appear beside her.
Qi An'an never expected Wen Cun to appear; he had never shown his face in public before.
She asked, "What happened?"
Wen Cun shook her head, her light blue eyes shimmering with an inorganic light, but her voice was gentle and cautious, "An An, should I not have shown myself?"
Shi Jing glanced at him sideways, then slowly turned her gaze away, the muscles at the corner of her mouth twitching slightly.
Because he needed to communicate with Wen Cun about the management rules and regulations of the new city, he had a lot of communication with him and was well aware of his skill in playing the victim.
He wasn't the only one who thought this way; apart from Donna, they all shared the same view on tenderness.
But Donna said it was their prejudice.
Upon hearing Wen Tsun's words, Qi An'an immediately smiled reassuringly, "How could that be? This is your territory too. You can do whatever you want here."
Wen Cun was relieved and smiled back, "Mm."
Nangong Xin: "Tch, what a green tea b*tch."
Then Qi An'an and Wen Cun both glanced at him.
The latter wore a smile, but Nangong Xin sensed a surge of killing intent, and the curve of his lips froze.
A faint commotion could be heard from below, and the bolder ones couldn't help but look up.
Suddenly, a person appeared beside the bureau chief. He had silver-white hair and seemed to be glowing. His face was obscured, but his icy aura was terrifying.
Upon seeing Wen Cun's figure, Lin Yuan was the most shocked.
That's him!
She looked at Fu Cailiang, "It's that man."
Fu Cailiang was also staring intently at the man. He wasn't wearing a badge, so it shouldn't be Cen Ji.
Who is he?
The ninth level of the Quick Transmigration Bureau has always been shrouded in mystery, but now it seems that it is about to be revealed to them.
As if sensing Fu Cailiang's presence, the man seemed to glance in his direction.
Although there was some distance between them, Fu Cailiang could clearly feel the cold gaze, which seemed like a warning, or perhaps a complete disregard.
Just as Lin Yuan described, this man possessed terrifying strength.
Fu Cailiang lowered his eyes, avoiding the piercing sharpness.
Almost without giving anyone time to react, a net-like red light spread throughout the entire hall, or rather, surrounded everyone.
Out of conditioned reflex, some people resist in order to protect themselves, but they find that after being hit by the red light, all the attack power is absorbed completely.
"Everyone, don't move! This is the main system!"
It was as if something was breaking apart, with square white squares falling down, but they didn't hit them.
As the surroundings grew darker, the light shining on Qi An'an became increasingly prominent, and the warmth beside her was an undeniable presence.
The energy field surrounding them was vigorous and powerful, clearly emanating from the man.
At this moment, everyone remembered Lin Yuan's prophecy.
This isn't what she'll see.
It did look very eerie; the destructive energy field oppressed everyone, making it hard for their hearts to calm down.
"He is the main system."
Someone in the crowd murmured.
Although it's absurd, this isn't the first time it's been this absurd. If Qi An'an can be the director, then the main system could also have a human form.
After the White Pagoda was dismantled and completely disappeared, they saw the outlines of an even grander building gradually forming around it.
"Look, it's the city wall!"
Turning to look at the towering city wall, Fu Cailiang realized that Lin Yuan's prophecy had come true.
However, what Qi An'an destroyed was the tower, not the quick transmigration game.
His cheeks were burning, and he felt that he had been ridiculous for clinging to the prophecy.
He turned back to look at the two figures enveloped by the beam of light, and gave a self-deprecating smile. He never thought that the phrase "worrying about nothing" would one day apply to him.
His understanding of the Quick Transmigration Bureau was too limited, and he still carried his previous narrow-minded thinking.
But in fact, Qi An'an had already brought him a whole new world.
This new world is so bizarre and wonderful.
The world he once lived in seemed so small, and he suddenly didn't know why he was still so determined to go back.
What can he change after he goes back?
How many people can he save in a small world destined for destruction?
"I'm starting to look forward to it..."
"This is a bit like the city I used to live in!"
"We still have to look to the main system!"
"The bureau chief is awesome!!"
"The bureau chief is my goddess! Ahhhhhh~~"
"I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I'm hungry."
"I don't want to retire, I want to travel to a few more worlds!"
...
A lively and excited discussion erupted from the crowd. Compared to the cold and impersonal white tower, everyone was filled with anticipation for this new city.
This is what a proper place to live should be like!
Amidst the commotion, a golden figure suddenly appeared in the sky, drawing everyone's attention.
Who is that?
"I feel like I've seen him before!"
"He has a gold badge; I think they said he was the bureau chief..."
"No, judging from this situation, he should be Cen Ji."
"Cen Ji, you're not dead yet." Donna was pulled back by Colin as soon as she opened her mouth, and he covered her mouth.
Since the system stopped suppressing her and her true nature was unleashed, Donna's mouth has become even more venomous.
If the person she was implying was someone else, Colin wouldn't care.
But Cen Ji is ruthless, so he still has to keep her mouth shut.
