Chapter 24 This Male Lead is Really Hard to Kill (First World Complete) Finally...
Upon hearing this, Fu Li's eyes lit up slightly.
He took the Soul-Separating Nail, lowered his eyes and fiddled with it. Gradually, a plan that would allow him to escape smoothly and take revenge on the scoundrel before leaving took shape in his mind.
After a while, he composed himself, his cold expression vanished, and he looked up at Qi Yue, asking, "Why did you help me?"
But then his face flushed red, and he coughed, his right hand clenched into a fist near his mouth, as if somewhat embarrassed, and said, "You may not know, but I like you."
Fu Li said expressionlessly, "Shao Ye also told me he loves me. Are your feelings the same as his?"
The young man, eager to distance himself from the man, shouted, "Of course not! I'm different from him! I just want to help you, unlike him who doesn't respect you at all!"
Fu Li smiled, narrowing her eyes, and remained noncommittal: "Is that so?"
Confessing his feelings under these circumstances, Qi Yue seemed a little embarrassed. "Um... after we leave, maybe you can consider me. I know Shao Ye hurt you, but I will be good to you."
Fu Li said calmly, "Perhaps."
He neither agreed nor explicitly refused. However, Qi Yue interpreted it as encouragement, his face immediately lighting up with a radiant smile, even as he left. He didn't forget to instruct Fu Li to use the Soul-Separating Nail only when Shao Ye was away.
But they failed to notice the silent indifference hidden deep within Fu Li's eyes.
Seeing this, the system couldn't help but click its tongue and say, "[You're such a troublemaker! You've ruined such a perfectly good male supporting character!]"
Fu Li replied with unusual indifference: "I never tried to seduce him. He was the one who got lustful at first sight. What kind of good thing could he be?"
That's not wrong, but seeing how innocent Qi Yue is, the system feels a little pity for him.
After he left, Fu Li hid the Soul-Separating Nail in a secluded spot within her sea of consciousness.
The system asked: "Are you really sure you want to leave now?"
Fu Li spoke calmly, almost to herself, "Such a good opportunity to leave, we can't miss it."
Immediately, Fu Li opened her eyes and looked up to see Shao Ye's cool and serene face. His eyes were gently closed, his breathing even, and he was holding her tightly in his arms as they lay down on the recliner together.
Noticing that Fu Li had woken up, his dark pupils regained focus, landing on the young man's handsome and alluring face, and he immediately smiled, "Ah Li, you're awake? Did you have a good dream?"
Fu Li also grinned and said in a cheerful voice, "Yes, sweet dreams. I dreamt about you."
"Really?" This answer clearly surprised the man even more, and a look of pleasure appeared deep in his usually cold eyes.
The young man sat up from his lap, two blushes rising on his cheeks. His eyes were gentle and tender as he tugged at the man's collar.
"Shaoye...I want to---"
This expression means that you want it.
Shao Ye held his hand, his heart softening as if it had melted into a puddle of water. He raised his hand and set up a barrier around them, then removed their outer garments as he wished.
Fu Li let out a satisfied sigh, and whispered in Shao Ye's ear in a soft, husky voice, "I want to have a divine communion with His Excellency, quickly."
Shao Ye readily granted all of his requests. He channeled his entire consciousness into Fu Li's sea of consciousness, finding the alluring flower that brought him unparalleled pleasure, and teased and tantalized it relentlessly.
Shao Ye was engrossed in his lover's intimacy, enjoying the mental climax fueled by his gentle and proactive advances. He failed to notice that in the young man's hand, a crystal-blue cone was gradually materializing.
Just as he was about to share the ultimate pleasure with Fu Li, a sharp icy blade flashed, and without the slightest hesitation, the young man drove a long nail into his own chest. Instantly, blood gushed out, splattering onto their jade-like skin, like a bloody painting of white and red intertwined.
Shao Ye immediately recognized the Soul-Separating Nail and thought that Fu Li wanted to separate her soul from the body. He shouted frantically, "You want to leave me again?! I'm telling you, that's impossible! I will never let you go. Even if you're just a soul, you will stay by my side!"
Fu Li simply smiled slightly, "Leave? No, I don't plan to leave."
After saying that, he did not separate his soul from his body. Instead, he made a fierce slash with his hand, and the long nail went straight into his dantian, finally breaking a crack in the seal.
At this moment, Shao Ye finally realized what he was trying to do. He let out a desperate and angry shout, and a surge of spiritual energy poured in, trying to stop everything from happening.
However, Fu Li acted even faster. He used all the spiritual energy he could absorb to shatter his meridians inch by inch. The immortal power on the seal finally turned into a death warrant and exploded in his dantian.
Blood blurred his vision, and all he could see was the man's usually cool and gentle face gradually twisting into a ferocious madness.
With his last ounce of strength, he said in a mocking tone, "Take your love, I don't care. In my eyes, you'll always be just a... stupid dog."
Feeling the person in his arms gradually lose body temperature, and their soul gradually perish in the exploding immortal power, Shao Ye let out a desperate scream like a madman.
In an instant, the world changed color, the sun and moon lost their light, and the entire Thirty-Three Heavens felt a tremor as if the heavens and earth were collapsing.
Shao Ye remained undeterred, continuously channeling his immortal power into the youth's meridians in an attempt to repair his damaged body. He also took out the Soul-Locking Chain, hoping to preserve the youth's soul.
However, just as he took out the Soul-Locking Chain, he suddenly felt a shattering pain in his heart meridian—the Co-birth Curse Seal had taken effect.
Back when he was the Left Protector of the Demon Realm, he placed a life-or-death curse on Fu Li, and was overjoyed, believing that he would be the Venerable One's future Daoist partner.
Who could have foreseen the fickle nature of human relationships, and the cold indifference of his beloved? Even after ascending to immortality, Shao Ye never removed the curse mark. He never even told Fu Li about it. Like a stubborn and solitary believer, he faithfully guarded the last altar he had set up for his master, offering himself as a sacrifice.
But now, it has been activated. This can only mean one thing—Fu Li is really dead.
The Co-birth Mantra Seal: When one's Daoist companion is born, the other is born; when one's Daoist companion dies, the other dies as well.
His heart meridians shattered, and his immortal spirit dissipated. Five hundred years of cultivation vanished into nothingness.
Even if they cannot be mutually in love in life, being able to live and die together is still a good ending.
The young immortal held the corpse tightly in his arms, as if he had found a peaceful harbor to rest in. Two lines of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and he closed his eyes forever.

Inside the system space. Fu Li, having finally finished the messed-up first world, could finally catch his breath. He stroked his chest and lower abdomen, as if he could still feel the excruciating pain when the Soul-Separating Nail pierced him, as if he had truly died once.
The taste was so wonderful, I don't want to remember it.
"How was it, system? I guess I've completed the mission?" After regaining her composure, Fu Li asked with a hint of pride.
After the system reviewed the settlement details, it told him: "[Mission failed. The host still has three hundred years remaining in his sentence.]"
"What?!!"
The system explained: "The male lead placed a 'tethered curse' on you; he immediately committed suicide after your death. As I said, the male lead is a chosen one and cannot die. Therefore, the mission has failed."
Fu Li was both shocked and furious: "What 'Shared Life Curse Seal'?! How come I don't know about it? Why didn't you remind me?!"
The system, feeling guilty, replied: "Um, actually I didn't know about the 'Shared Life Seal.' Every time you guys do something that can't pass censorship, I get blocked. That's probably when he placed the seal on you. You can't blame me if you didn't realize it..."
Fu Li protested loudly: "It's unfair! What kind of lousy system and judgment mechanism is this? I've abandoned all my integrity to complete this lousy task! I ask you, didn't Xue Shaoming ascend to immortality? Didn't the Demon Lord die? Didn't he suffer torture before he died?! All of these have been achieved, so why don't I pass! Besides, the male lead only died after I left the small world, what does that have to do with me! I don't care! I'm going to file a complaint!"
Under his barrage of questions, the system thought to itself: It sounds reasonable, but the plot is just messed up. It's all because you were always thinking about how to kill the male lead in the beginning.
However, feeling guilty, it eventually submitted the complaint. This time, the headquarters responded very quickly. The red "Mission Failed" indicator flashed a few times before finally changing to the green "Mission Successful" indicator.
Fu Li was very satisfied and smugly hummed twice, saying, "I've been in this small world for five hundred years, which is well over three hundred years of my sentence. Now I can finally be released after serving my full sentence, right?"
Actually, he didn't intend to do the mission properly at first, but the plot somehow went smoothly thanks to his endless crazy tricks. Who else could it be but his achievement? He also managed to serve his sentence.
Thinking about it this way, Fu Li suddenly felt that being penetrated by a man in the small world wasn't so unlucky after all.
Ideals are lofty, but reality is harsh.
The system then regretfully informed him: "Sorry, this is impossible. Your sentence has not yet been served."
[As I said before, the flow of time in the small world and the real world is different, but your sentence is calculated according to the real world's timeline, so your sentence hasn't expired yet.]
Fu Li was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "How long have I been taking it?"
System: [Less than three hundred years.]
Fu Li: ......
"How long will it take?!"
"One year." The system said with some reluctance.
Fu Li was furious: "What?! I've been in the small world for over five hundred years! Even Sun Wukong was released after being imprisoned for five hundred years! Your time conversion is ridiculous. Does that mean I have to stay in the small world for... 150,000 years?!"
The system quickly explained: "Host, you're participating in a labor camp. Good behavior can lead to a reduced sentence. However, your attitude towards advancing the plot in the small world is extremely negative, therefore you're ineligible for a reduced sentence. Most people in our labor camp get their sentences reduced based on good behavior; simply staying in the small world basically won't get you released early."
So it let Fu Li indulge in one world in the hope that he would see reality clearly and follow the plot properly in the next world, instead of always thinking about enjoying himself. Does he think the small world is a retirement resort?
Fu Li retorted angrily, "Why should I follow the plot?! If I follow the plot, won't I become cannon fodder?!"
The system, having reached its limit, retorted: "[Because you're serving time! This is punitive labor reform! Not a vacation!]"
After arguing for a while, the system got tired. It could only tell Fu Li:
[Anyway, you won't get a reduced sentence this way. And constantly not completing story missions will also affect my performance evaluation. Host, in the next world, I won't let you do whatever you want. Let's work together to complete the story properly.]
Fu Li was furious but couldn't vent it, so he could only sneer and say, "Fine, come on, let's see who backs down first!"
The system sighed to itself, knowing that sending it to oversee such a tough opponent wouldn't be a good task. But it had no choice. It could only take Fu Li and move on to the next world.
Author's Note: The first world is over! Tomorrow, the second world begins—"How I Became the True Young Master's Canary." The plot revolves around a true and false young master and a vicious beauty. Little Fu Li continues her relentless struggle against the plot and the system. The romance is sweet and tangy, and even the later "dark room" scenes are still delightful. Don't miss it!
