Completely impatient with anything irrelevant, Qin Shi Huang stared intently at Tang Sanzang and continued to ask, "So, are you really Tang Sanzang? Can flesh grant immortality?"
After being pressed in the face three or four times, Tang Sanzang finally couldn't take it anymore and cautiously asked, "...Actually, I don't know either. But judging from the immortality pills I sold recently, they should still have some effect, right..."
With his gaze fixed on Tang Sanzang growing ever more profound, Qin Shi Huang calmly nodded: "I understand."
Looking at Qin Shi Huang's expression, Tang Sanzang tightened his body even more, reminding him, "Your Majesty, the Dean said that colleagues are not allowed to kill each other."
Yu Ningning also glanced at Qin Shi Huang indifferently.
Upon receiving their gazes, Qin Shi Huang remained calm, head held high, and said, "I merely asked a few questions out of curiosity. I had no intention of eating this person at this moment. Are you planning to convict me because of this?"
"Don't think I'm unaware of the rules of this world. In case of doubt, I will not admit to anything."
Yu Ningning's expression remained calm as she said indifferently, "Whether you admit your guilt or not, whether you believe it or not, you are now bound to my system. I naturally have ways to deal with you, so it would be best if you behaved yourself."
Hearing the faint threat in Yu Ningning's words, Qin Shi Huang finally fell silent.
Yu Ningning then looked at Tang Seng: "I already know about your situation. Your attitude is very good; you didn't keep hiding your true identity and cause us more losses."
"I have to commend you for this."
Not noticing Yu Ningning's disdain, nor seeing anything unusual on the faces of the others, Tang Seng raised his voice slightly incredulously and asked, "So, you don't mind my presence?"
The little fish asked curiously, "Why would I dislike you?"
Tang Sanzang replied matter-of-factly, "I'm a character in a parody work. Not only am I cowardly, incompetent, and funny, but I can't do anything right either. In the work, I'm practically bombarded with ninety-nine layers of bullet comments..."
Su Daji asked in surprise, "Then I've been cursed for three thousand years."
Jing Ke also said, "I have a lot of criticism in history, and I always appear as a 'loser' without any successes."
Qin Shi Huang raised his head and said calmly, "I judge people by their nature only, and I have never been afraid of their background."
Yu Ningning also said calmly, "Don't worry about that. I only look at people's economic value and labor ability, and I never care about those unfounded and baseless evaluations and backgrounds."
"As long as you can bring me enough economic value, I don't care if you are a character in official history, unofficial history, biography, prequel, or sequel, you are the best person in the world."
"If you can't bring me economic value, even if you are the real Sun Wukong standing in front of me... cough cough... if it is the Great Sage Sun standing in front of me, I will still get excited and I will definitely make him show me how to use the golden cudgel."
“I’ll leave aside the real Tang Sanzang, and I’ll treat all other historical figures the same way.”
Everyone: ...
Yu Ningning, you ruthless capitalist who eats people alive, you truly live up to your reputation.
