When Ning Ruoxian returned, Chen Sui was already studying what jewels were in her main hall.
Ning Ruoxian stepped forward and grabbed Shen Sui's hand, panting and said, "Do you have it, that Tongzi?"
What bucket?
Chen Sui looked bewildered, and said carefully, "It's the thing that guides you."
Oh, the system.
Chen Sui casually took out Xiao Ba, who was good at forming a barrier, and Xiao Ba enveloped Chen Sui and Ning Ruoxian.
Then Shen Sui shook his head and said honestly: "Actually, I came here to save a little girl who was stabbed three times by a drunk gangster. The hospital couldn't save her."
Ning Ruoxuan was stunned.
Shen Sui sighed: "I finally graduated from college, and I've saved myself the pain of working. What about you?"
"I'm not as good as you," Ning Ruoxian whispered, "I was in high school... I accidentally fell into the river."
Shen Sui narrowed his eyes slightly: "Really?"
Ning Ruoxian hesitated for a long time before she said in a nearly hushed voice, "...I was pushed down by my best friend at the time."
Shen Sui was very calm: "So that's how it is, is there anything I can help you with?"
Ning Ruoxian smiled bitterly: "It's too late, my mission has failed."
Chen Sui's expression froze. She remembered that Ning Ruoxian's mission was to conquer Mo Yanlin. And she remembered that before she left, the relationship between Ning Ruoxian and Mo Yanlin was pretty good?
"I will stay here forever," Ning Ruoxian said dryly, her eyes numb. "I've been here for over twenty years, even longer than I was in that world. I've almost forgotten what my parents look like. If it weren't for the system, I'd feel like I was dreaming."
Shen Sui was silent.
Then she held out her arms: "Would you like a hug?"
Ning Ruoxian threw herself into her arms and began to sob softly. Chen Sui patted her back gently to help her breathe.
After an unknown amount of time, Ning Ruoxian finally stopped talking. She whispered, "I know who you are, but you didn't tell me before, so I thought, can't you tell me?"
Chen Sui hummed, "Because she's dead, you can just call me Sheng Qinian."
"good."
Ning Ruoxian murmured, "I never thought I would meet you again, and when you asked me if I was from that world, I was really happy, because the moment I saw you, I knew you were different, but I didn't dare to ask you."
"Is your system still there?" Shen Sui asked.
Ning Ruoxian nodded: "Yes, even though I failed in my mission, it is still with me."
"In fact, if you didn't have it, you wouldn't have a chance to survive." Shen Sui smiled faintly.
Ning Ruoxian's lips curled up slightly: "Yes, at least I'm still alive."
"Isn't being alive hope?" Chen Sui asked inexplicably.
Ning Ruoxuan was stunned.
She looked into the girl's eyes, and the girl's eyes were as calm as ever.
However, Chen Sui knew that Ning Ruoxuan was in a state of long-term collapse, and the collapse of not being able to return home could almost crush and swallow her up.
"Let me talk to your system," Shen Sui said, "Can you pass the message on for me?"
Ning Ruoxian looked at her steadily, then nodded slowly.
Shen Sui cleared his throat and said, "Is this a book or the real world?"
This is the question that Chen Sui has always wanted to ask. If this is a book, then everything is destined and there is no way to escape it. But if this is the real world, it means that it can establish connections with other worlds.
Then, after hearing the system rustling in Ning Ruoxian's mind, Chen Sui replied, "I don't know."
"It...it said it didn't know..." Ning Ruoxian replied in a low voice.
Shen Sui frowned slightly. This answer did not surprise her, because at the beginning it could be said that this was a world constructed by several books, but slowly as the timeline went on, some plots and character personalities that did not belong to the books were revealed.
More real, and more... powerless.
"What exactly is the Demon Fairy Lotus?" Chen Sui continued to ask.
After another rustling sound, the system said, "The Demon Immortal Lotus is a sacred object in the demon world. Legend has it that it can grow flesh from bones, and it also seems to have miraculous psychic effects."
Ning Ruoxian told the system what it said, but Chen Sui fell into deep thought.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Sui slowly said, "Ning Ruoxian, do you think the Demon Clan Temple has a passage to another world?"
Ning Ruoxian suddenly opened her eyes wide, perhaps because she felt that what Chen Sui said was a bit too absurd, but Ning Ruoxian was also very clearly aware that what Chen Sui said was actually not without reason.
Chen Sui murmured, "Hundreds of years ago, a powerful human broke into the demon clan's temple and never came out again. If, and I mean if, this world has not completely become the world in the book, but still retains a bit of reality, then there must be a door to another world."
Ning Ruoxian opened her mouth wide.
After a long moment, her nails dug into her flesh, and she said in a hoarse voice, "I understand. I must go and inherit the position of Demon King this time."
Shen Sui looked at her quietly: "Maybe she will die? Your system must have saved you with great difficulty."
Ning Ruoxian laughed, but her smile was extremely ugly: "System, what do you think?"
This time, there was a long rustling sound. After a long while, the system replied: "I will always support you. Otherwise, I would not have stayed by your side after your mission failed. I have thought so since the moment I saw you.
"I think you should live."
Ning Ruoxuan smiled again, but this time she smiled happily, like a child who had been recognized.
Shen Sui patted her shoulder and said, "Okay, let's first think about how to assassinate your cheap father."
Ning Ruoxian got a headache when she heard this: "It would be fine if you didn't say anything. As soon as you said it, my head started to hurt. You saw it too. I have arranged four people in the palace, and the two at the main hall door are my cheap father's men."
"What about the palace entrance?" Shen Sui thought for a moment and asked.
Ning Ruoxian said in a muffled voice, "One was given by my cheap brother, and the other was given by my cheap sister. They said it was to help me guard the door."
Shen Sui: “…”
"Everyone outside said that the Demon King was seriously injured, and you served by his bedside without taking off your clothes?" Chen Sui asked.
Ning Ruoxuan rolled her eyes.
"God knows how this rumor got out. I stayed in this palace and never left. If someone from outside had come in to take a look, the rumor wouldn't have spread so far."
