Yao Yishui's Gu worms were used to kill people, but his Gu worms were taught to him by Yao Yishui to save him.
It's fed ginseng and lingzhi mushrooms; it's no exaggeration to say that it can be saved as long as it has a breath left.
It devoured the stagnant blood inside Ye Jiu's body and roamed within him. Whether it was psychological or not, Ye Jiu's complexion looked much better than before.
Yun Jia grabbed Ye Jiu's hand and placed it on his face, "Xiao Jiu... wake up soon."
I miss you so much, full of energy!
And then there's Ji Huali, she won't live past this year, and it seems she wants the throne? How about I just let her watch another princess sit on the throne?
He snapped out of his reverie and chuckled softly, "Won't Xiao Jiu think I'm too vicious? But she's the one who caused Xiao Jiu all this." He gripped Ye Jiu's hand tightly, "Even if she dies a thousand times, ten thousand times, it wouldn't be a pity."
"I'm still waiting for you to buy me the new products from Shangshifang, Xiao Jiu."
——
Ye Jiu's only thought before falling off the cliff was: "Damn it, I'm going to take you down with me!"
He immediately coughed up blood after falling off the cliff, managed to stand up and take a few steps before losing consciousness completely.
When Ye Jiu regained consciousness, she was already a ghost, in a pure white space, with a black ball in front of her.
Just as Ye Jiu was wondering where she was, the black ball of fur suddenly spoke.
"Hello, mission taker, it's nice to see you again." A familiar mechanical voice, a familiar greeting.
Ye Jiu rolled her eyes and raised her fist in front of it. Finally, she caught it!
He threw a punch, but his body passed right through the dumpling's figure, achieving nothing.
The black ball of fur remained silent for a long time before finally speaking, "Tasker, you are currently in the system space. Due to the severe damage your body sustained during the 003 mission, the protection mechanism was triggered, and your soul was pulled into the system space to avoid further harm."
Finding himself unable to harm the system, Ye Jiu waved his hand dismissively, "So what?"
"003's body is severely damaged. If the mission taker dies an unnatural death, their soul will also be harmed. Therefore, I have brought your soul here."
Ye Jiu suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem, "You mean... my other body will die, right?"
"Yes, the mission participant lost too much blood, and a broken rib pierced his internal organs, causing massive internal bleeding. He also suffered multiple fractures, and with the medical technology available at the time, it was impossible to save him." The mechanical voice remained as ruthless as ever, stating the facts.
Ye Jiu sighed, realizing how serious it was. He really wouldn't survive; even in modern times, this situation would be dire.
"What about me? What about Yun Jia? I haven't finished my 003 mission yet!!"
"Searching... Searching in progress, search complete! 003 mission objective is not doing well, blackening progress bar... buzzing, information retrieval failed."
Ye Jiu: "...You're still such a waste, which is why Yun Jia turned evil. You don't even know how evil she's become?!"
System: "...Yes."
Ye Jiu: "You still dare to admit it?! How shameless!"
System: "The system has no shame."
Ye Jiu refused to engage in a meaningless conversation with it; her frail and helpless senior brother was still waiting for her to save him!
"Alright, enough of that! Hurry up and figure out a way to get me back to continue my mission!" Ye Jiu said, then realized something was off. She was clearly forced to do this mission, wasn't she?! Why was she so anxious when the system wasn't?!
After a few mental steps, I realized, oh right, my man is in his hands.
hateful!
The system started playing dead again. The black ball was so dark that even its eyes couldn't be seen, so Ye Jiu naturally couldn't tell what the system was thinking.
After a long silence, Ye Jiu couldn't help but ask, "So? You... can't?"
“Tasker… I’ll try my best… but not yet.”
Ye Jiu strangely detected the difficulty in the mechanical voice. Fine, fine, this system is still as useless as ever.
"If I could hit you, I would have crippled you."
The black ball of fur blushed, then tapped and typed the command: "Unless there are unforeseen circumstances, the tasker must absolutely not be allowed to re-enter the system space."
"So what do we do now?" Ye Jiu sat down cross-legged, forced to accept reality.
"wait."
"Waiting for a day is the same as waiting for a year." Ye Jiu closed her eyes; she really couldn't rely on it.
"I don't know, the deadline is uncertain."
...She knew it.
Ye Jiu wailed, "Aaaaaah, what if Yun Jia destroys the world?! You chose this mission target yourself, don't you have any idea how dangerous he is?! If the world is destroyed, you'll definitely not get away with it either."
System: Aba aba... (Dementia.jpg)
Ye Jiu sat up straight, cursing without expression, "Damn it, I can't even finish this lousy task in a day."
She simply lay flat on the ground, closed her eyes, and began to sleep.
Since we can't change it, let's just wait to die.
She's not bragging, but if she were to kill Yun Jia, she would definitely make sure Ji Huali dies, and her death would certainly not be pleasant.
She had seen him feed the Gu worms, and the sight of the Gu worms burrowing back into his body after they were full startled her. Seeing the wounds torn open by the Gu worms and the effect through his skin was indeed a completely different experience...
The system space was too quiet, and Ye Jiu had a good sleep quality. Not long after she closed her eyes, her consciousness began to wander, and then she fell into a deep sleep.
The black ball of fur wiped away imaginary sweat, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Phew, thank goodness I fell asleep. This calming incense worked well; I can use it again next time..." Wait! There won't be a next time!! Next time, I absolutely won't let any mission takers into the system space!
Ye Jiu's soul drifted in the air, swaying gently, like a fallen leaf from a tree, fluttering for a long time without landing on the ground.
She started dreaming about Su Qingyue, dreaming that he kissed her forehead and said good morning to her.
She dreamt of Xin Mao and Shen Que, dreamt of her being entangled with them passionately, vines wrapping around her tightly and then suddenly releasing her, followed by cold tentacles wrapping around her.
Well, everything about them is fine, except they're too unsatisfied, and they're both beginners who are progressing too quickly. Ye Jiu thought to herself.
It seemed like a long time had passed, yet it also seemed like not long. Nearly 150 years of memories were blurred in her mind, and only vague impressions remained of the details of her interactions with them, sealed away in her heart.
The black ball of fur glanced at Ye Jiu, who was still fast asleep, and quickened its pace. Almost done, almost there! It would be time to send her away!
It even allocated a portion of its backup energy to expedite her departure!
If the 003 mission world had any problems, it wouldn't have survived either! Luckily, the expedited processing worked, otherwise it would have really crashed to its death.
Ye Jiu was sleeping soundly when she suddenly felt as if she had landed on the ground, her soul no longer wandering, but had found a place to belong.
She slept so comfortably that she turned over and continued sleeping, pulling the blanket up to wrap herself up tightly.
Huh? A blanket? Where did this blanket come from? Never mind, I'll just go to sleep.
The servant pointed tremblingly at the bed and ran out shouting, "My...My Lord!!! Lord Ye has moved!!"
