Chapter 79
The system was almost hopelessly caught by Li Yunzheng.
The magical powers of a strong man in the Tribulation Period are unimaginable. The system is tied up by an invisible object and cannot move.
Li Yunzheng was walking in front, humming an unknown tune, looking leisurely and in a very good mood. The direction she was heading with the system was the Tianyun Sword Sect.
The system has controlled Nan Xi for so long, and this is the first time it has been controlled. However, no matter how hard it struggles, it cannot shake Li Yunzheng's power in the slightest.
In addition, the energy used to move in this world has been used up, and the system is completely unable to fight back.
The current situation was too unbelievable, so even when the system saw that Qi Qian's luck value had dropped to 30%, it was not disturbed at all.
It only cares about its own present destiny.
How will Li Yunzheng deal with it?
No one knew how Li Yunzheng would deal with the system, but Nan Xi had ruined the plot again this time, so while waiting for Luo Tingyun to recover, she could only wait for the system to deal with her.
As a result, after waiting for a long time, the system didn't even make a sound, let alone punishment.
Although Nan Xi can feel that the system is not with her now, she still has to wonder whether this reaction is a bit slow or not.
While Nan Xi was deep in thought, Luo Tingyun slightly opened his eyes, his vision went from blurry to clear, and then he slowly sat up.
When she sits up, her soft hair falls naturally, and the luster is like the finest satin. When her eyes move slightly to look at people, she looks both cold and a little seductive.
Nan Xi happened to see this scene and was stunned.
【Thank you for the invitation. I am so impressed by the beauty. 】
When Luo Tingyun heard Nan Xi's words, his still somewhat fuzzy mind instantly became clear. There was a hint of sadness on his face, and he pursed his lips slightly.
He asked, "Why are you here, Senior Sister?"
"I just came out of a space that can devour spirits and consciousness, and I saw a giant python in the infant stage. You are outside."
Nan Xi smiled, "Fortunately I came out, otherwise if Qi Qian was the only one left, I'm afraid..."
Halfway through the words, Nan Xi suddenly realized her character and shut her mouth abruptly. She blinked at Luo Tingyun, then chuckled as if to cover up the truth.
Luo Tingyun looked at him with a smile in his eyes, but he also remembered what happened before he fell into a coma.
He did see Qi Qian at that time, and then he remembered some of the plot that Nan Xi had revealed before, but it was too late. Soon he fell ill and passed out.
Thinking of this, Luo Tingyun's eyes dimmed.
"I am useless and I need my senior sister to save me."
"Hmm?" Nan Xi looked over with some confusion. "What are you talking about? I'm your senior sister. Isn't it natural for me to save you?"
"Oh, yes, are you okay? This disease is really hateful. It has to follow you."
Nan Xi wrinkled her nose seriously as she spoke, looking natural and without any blame. She naturally included Luo Tingyun in her circle of protection and did not cause any further trouble because of Luo Tingyun's illness.
Either a reaction of sympathy or disgust.
But there was nothing, and it was said lightly, which made Luo Tingyun feel relieved. His brows were calm, and he said softly: "Thank you, Senior Sister."
Nan Xi smiled at him again, her smile was very bright and beautiful.
"How are you feeling now, Junior Sister? Is there anything unusual? I have put a lot of medicinal food in my storage ring. It is nourishing and delicious. Would you like to try it?"
Luo Tingyun responded.
"I want it." He paused and looked at Nan Xi, "I want to try it."
Nan Xi always felt that Luo Tingyun's words were very pleasant, so she was not stingy and took out all the preserved dishes. She added a small table, heated them up a little, and then they could start eating.
"This formation will become ineffective in a few hours. We can't waste it."
"You should tell me what's going on here. There's always a lingering smell of blood."
Luo Tingyun nodded, "Okay."
The origin of this danger is unknown, but it is extremely dangerous. Not only are there ferocious beasts, but anything here, including seemingly harmless plants, land, and even small flying insects, can kill people.
Over the past six months, they have gone through many hardships and have finally figured out a way to get out of this dangerous place, but every step has been extremely difficult.
"For a while, I was traveling with Ji Huizhou and several fellow apprentices, but we all got into a maze together and couldn't find anyone after we came out."
Then, Luo Tingyun accidentally got hit and fell into coma, and Nan Xi appeared to save him.
Nan Xi looked at the land beneath her feet thoughtfully.
She didn't feel good about this land, but the protection of the formation was all-round, so she and Luo Tingyun could now leisurely take medicinal food to recuperate their bodies.
When Nan Xi had put away all her things, she suddenly felt the stone wall not far away move.
The two of them became alert instantly, and Nan Xi thought about it for a moment and suddenly became confused.
It seemed that there wasn't such a pile of rocks when she came out.
Before she could figure it out, the pile of rocks shook again, and soon a dusty man emerged from it.
After seeing who that person was, Nan Xi asked: “?”
[No, the plot doesn't say that Qi Qian will work as a miner.]
But obviously, there was a formation in place, and Qi Qian couldn't see Nan Xi and Luo Tingyun now. He stood there for a while, then suddenly sat back down, leaned on the pile of rocks, and slowly looked up at the sky.
“Hahahahaha…hahahahahahahaha!”
His laughter was extremely wild, totally inconsistent with his usual cold and stern appearance, and Nan Xi was stunned.
[This guy seems to have lost his character, right? ]
Qi Qian had already stopped laughing, and his whisper turned into a loud voice, "God help me... God help me, God help me!"
Even though Qi Qian was not clear about his condition when he was unconscious and invaded by his inner demons, after he regained consciousness, he was able to recall the previous danger and the power that emerged after the danger.
This situation happened more than once, and each time I saved him from danger and gave him better opportunities.
Even if he was not very sensitive, he could still feel as if he was being helped by God.
He is the one destined by heaven.
After Qi Qian laughed for a while, he looked at the situation around him, and his wanton smile finally subsided. He returned to his previous cold and distant look. When he passed by the giant python's corpse, he didn't even look at it and just walked straight past it.
His arrogant look already bears the resemblance to the cold and aloof immortal in the drama.
Without the system urging her, Nan Xi naturally chose to wait until Qi Qian left before coming out. She glanced at Luo Tingyun and then gave him an eye dropper, "I didn't expect that Qi Qian was so crazy behind his back."
Isn't it just madness? Plus that wolfish look, there are some signs of being possessed by a demon.
The purpose of putting on eye drops is to prevent Luo Tingyun from having any favorable impression on Qi Qian. People like Qi Qian should not be contacted if possible.
Luo Tingyun nodded in agreement, "Senior Sister is right."
Afterwards, the two of them recuperated for a while, and after the formation was broken, they started to walk outside.
Let’s not talk about how difficult it will be afterwards, at least we can get out.
…
Tianyun Sword Sect, and Sword Cave Mansion.
Li Yunzheng walked around the yard, "What do you think is the best way to deal with it? Kill it directly?"
The third elder looked at the red nail polish on his fingernails nonchalantly and chuckled, "It would be a shame to kill it. What if this little thing has other ways to survive? It's better to imprison it in the abyss of sin in the back mountain. After a few hundred or a thousand years, it will naturally die."
"This one is not bad either." Li Yunzheng nodded in agreement.
The Great Elder shook his head and said, "It is used to punish the most evil people. It is unclear whether it is useful to the system. It is inhumane to treat it like this. I think it is better to destroy it directly."
"The fire of karma that I control can burn everything to ashes. It's perfect for that."
Li Yunzheng nodded again, "That's fine. The system is so small, it shouldn't be difficult to completely burn it down."
At this time, the system was trembling with fear, hiding in a corner and not daring to speak. It was still imprisoned and could not run away. It could only listen to people talking about how they wanted to take its life.
The system's body is only about the size of an adult's head. Except for an electronic screen, the rest of the body is soft and translucent. Its material cannot be seen, but it can flexibly change into various shapes.
At this moment, they were huddled together in a corner, with a horizontal line on the screen as if the system had frozen. The whole system looked completely weak, pitiful, and helpless.
But in stark contrast to its rotten appearance, the system's CPU is running frantically, trying to find another way to survive besides running away.
Just when everyone unanimously decided to destroy the system with fire, the mechanical sound rang out urgently.
"I! I...I have something to say!"
Everyone's eyes turned to the system.
It stuttered and flew up, looking at everyone at eye level. The mechanical voice had an intense tone, but it was still hard to tell what the emotion was, "You should know your fate, right?!"
"Although Nan Xi was brought by me from another world, she inherited this body, and thus also inherited the fate of this body!"
"Even without me, she still has to follow the plot. If she doesn't, the countless branches in the future will lead her to that path until her destiny is fulfilled! Only then will her true future be revealed."
"But at least my plot is clear and controllable! If I am killed and the plot doesn't go as planned, there's no telling what Nan Xi will encounter in the future!"
After it finished speaking, there was silence.
Li Yunzheng walked in front of it and narrowed her eyes slightly. "How can you prove that what you said is true?"
The system was silent, and finally said: "You can disbelieve me, but you will never know what the consequences will be. If you believe me, I can sign a master-servant contract with you. You are the master and I am the servant. I will obey your orders completely and tell you everything I know."
The people present looked at each other.
The system really has a grasp on their minds, and they want to capture the system in order to help Nan Xi break free from the plot and constraints and make her life easier.
But now the road before them has a different direction.
Should Nan Xi go towards the unknown, with the same ending as in the plot, or should she choose to break down and then rebuild?
He Jian closed his eyes slightly.
Fate does exist. Some disasters are present from birth and cannot be avoided. If you want to avert the disaster, you have to face it.
Luo Tingyun was just waiting for the calamity, but he didn't expect Nan Xi to also...
He finally said in a deep voice: "Since we have to sign the contract, the content and method of the contract will be determined by us. If you have any thoughts in the future, you will be dealt with according to the method discussed today."
This choice is not difficult.
What Nan Xi herself hopes for is to get the life she wants after completing the plot. She adapts to the current situation and handles it with ease. If she chooses the unknown, she will suffer real pain when she faces the calamity.
And the same despair as the heroine in the plot.
