Xie Zhou was still immersed in the beautiful dream she had created for herself when suddenly, a disheveled face with almost bald hair and only a few fuzzy hairs appeared before Xie Zhou's eyes.
"My goodness!"
Xie Zhou was so startled by his reflection in the mirror that he took three or four steps back.
"No, no, no, this isn't me! I used to be incredibly beautiful!"
Xie Zhou angrily moved the mirror that the system had specially prepared for her aside.
"No, no, no, this is you. Although your appearance is unkempt, your heart is even more wicked."
The system's words were simply unacceptable to normal humans.
"What the hell? What are you saying! Not only do you not do anything, but you're also making sarcastic remarks to me! How can your system do this?!"
Xie Zhou was so angry that his nose was crooked, and he wished he could drag the system out and beat it up to vent his anger.
"My God, are humans really this unreasonable? I was telling the truth, and you actually tried to deceive this innocent young virgin's feelings and then abandoned him!"
The system suddenly became righteous, leaving Xie Zhou speechless.
"What work am I supposed to do! I'm working myself to the bone just to complete the tasks of this lousy system of yours! And you, you're blaming me? Die!"
Xie Zhou rolled his eyes. It was clearly this damn system that was causing the bad things.
"If you say that again, I'm quitting! I'll just let things take their course."
"You can't do that. That's unprofessional."
"Dedicated? I haven't even said anything about you yet, and you're already criticizing me!"
Xie Zhou started arguing with the system again. In his mind, Xie Zhou was arguing with the system, but in reality, the Xie Zhou that others saw was standing still, baring his teeth, looking terrifying, just like someone who had gone mad while practicing martial arts.
"Xie Zhou! Xie Zhou, what's wrong with you! What happened!"
Suddenly, Xie Zhou heard an anxious call.
"Um?"
Xie Zhou stopped arguing with the system and his consciousness returned to his body.
"I'm fine. What brings you here? Are your wounds better?"
The person who came to visit was Luo Fantian.
"Phew... That really scared me to death. I thought you had gone mad from practicing cultivation."
Luo Fantian carefully circled Xie Zhou, looking him over from the left and right, even from above, and only felt relieved after confirming that Xie Zhou was indeed alright.
"Don't worry, I'm really fine."
Xie Zhou blushed and felt a little embarrassed.
Were you just showing concern for me?
Xie Zhou took a big step forward, cornering Luo Fantian against the wall. He stared intently into Luo Fantian's eyes, then reached out and touched Luo Fantian's spider leg.
Where's the wall? Why are they spider legs? This isn't the wall slam I imagined!
"Xie Zhou, what... what are you doing? Hahaha... stop touching me... hahahaha... it's so itchy, so itchy..."
Luo Fantian seemed to have been tickled, and couldn't stop laughing.
The spider leg that Xie Zhou had grabbed also began to twitch erratically.
"Quickly...hahahaha...let go of me...hahahaha, it itches so much..."
Luo Fantian was laughing so hard that tears were streaming down his face.
"Ah, this..."
This is not what I imagined.
Xie Zhou reluctantly released his hand, his eyes filled with resentment as he stared at Luo Fantian.
"Hahahaha, hahahaha, oh my god, this is so itchy..."
Luo Fantian used his spider legs to walk around the Frost Palace twice before stopping.
"Sigh, seeing you like this, I'm really worried."
Xie Zhou's resentment had not yet subsided, and her deep eyes continued to stare at Luo Fantian, following him wherever he went.
"Um...hehehe...actually, I don't know either..."
Luo Fantian blushed, scratched his head, and smiled sheepishly at Xie Zhou.
"Laugh! Still laughing! You haven't laughed enough yet!"
As he spoke, Xie Zhou reached out, pretending to touch Luo Fantian's spider leg.
"Oh no, oh no, don't touch me..."
Luo Fantian quickly dodged.
"Let's see if you can be arrogant next time. How about it, I've found your weakness now!"
Xie Zhou smiled smugly.
"Reporting to Miss Xie Zhou, I will never dare to do it again."
Luo Fantian's serious expression made Xie Zhou burst out laughing.
"What Miss Xie Zhou? That's hilarious."
Xie Zhou was still a little embarrassed.
"Exactly, no one is as ugly as you, Miss."
Another discordant voice echoed in Xie Zhou's mind.
"Shut up!"
Xie Zhou also yelled at the system in an annoyed tone.
"You've come here today to..."
"Actually, I came here today because I wanted to..."
The two spoke in unison.
"You go first."
The two of them spoke in unison again.
"Okay, I'll go first."
This was the third time; the two of them said the same thing again.
"Okay, okay, I'll go first, I'll go first."
This time, Xie Zhou spoke first.
"What do you want from me this time?"
Xie Zhou raised a question.
"Haha, that's exactly the question I was about to answer. I came here to thank you."
"Sigh, you don't really need to thank me. What I did was just a small favor."
Xie Zhou felt a little excited, but she still waved happily.
"No, this is very important. If it weren't for your constant encouragement, I might really have become a useless person, and I might have ended my own life soon."
Luo Fantian sighed.
"But things are different now, look at this."
As he spoke, Luo Fantian stretched out his left hand, and a small black flame burned fiercely in his hand.
"See this? This is all thanks to you!"
Luo Fantian's face was full of gratitude.
"Black flames? I remember your primordial fire wasn't originally golden?"
Xie Zhou's eyes showed some doubt.
"Yes, it was originally golden. But ever since I was hurt by that demonic spider, especially now, I've discovered that I possess not only the eight legs of the demonic spider, but also its evolved ability to use poison."
"Watch closely."
Luo Fantian smiled slightly at Xie Zhou, and Xie Zhou returned the smile. The next second, she was stunned because she saw that the stone scorched by the flames turned into water as if it had been corroded by sulfuric acid. Finally, when Luo Fantian burned it, there was not even a drop of foam left.
"This fire... this fire can even have corrosive properties?"
Xie Zhou was so shocked his eyes almost popped out.
"Yes, and to put it simply, it's not just corrosive ability, it's toxic corrosion."
Luo Fantian continued to introduce his skills.
That's why I really want to thank you.
Luo Fantian's smile grew even brighter.
Xie Zhou suddenly felt a pang of regret.
