Mo Rufeng stood there circling around, as if searching for something, but ultimately found nothing. He looked up at Lu Jian and said calmly, "Execute him."
...
Is it noon yet? Is he dead?
Su Chen was at a loss.
Just then, a gust of pungent wind rushed towards Su Chen, pungent yet familiar.
Someone grabbed her from the side, "Su Chen, don't go."
Su Chen broke free from him and charged forward recklessly.
"Su Chen! Wake up!" The person grabbed her shoulder.
Is it... Mo Yun?
"Why won't you let me go?" Su Chen was somewhat confused. "Isn't Mo Rufeng there?"
“He…he’s dead,” Mo Yun said.
Su Chen seemed not to understand a single word, but she desperately struggled to break free and headed towards the market.
She saw many people, smelled an even stronger stench of blood, and also saw... Mo Rufeng silently...
Su Chen's heart immediately began to throb with pain, which then intensified, feeling as if it were being squeezed by a hand, as if it were being repeatedly cut by a dull knife, until the pain blurred her vision...
"Su Chen, wake up."
That's the system's voice.
"Su Chen! Get up quickly!"
Su Chen opened her eyes and slowly woke up. Looking at the familiar furnishings in the space, she felt as if she had been transported to another world.
The system, hands on its hips, said, "Su Chen, you're really asking for trouble. You're practically dying from the pain. The Gu worms are going to eat your heart out."
Su Chen was taken aback. "Really?"
"This time it's not that I didn't want you to stay, it's that you brought this on yourself." The system acted as if it were detached from the matter.
After a while, the system asked quietly, "Have you developed feelings for him?"
Su Chen's eyes seemed to be filled with a thick fog that couldn't be cleared.
Moved by emotions? I don't know...
Su Chen shook her head. "I don't know."
Seeing that she was in a bad mood, the system didn't say anything more, but silently handed her a bag of onion rings.
Su Chen didn't answer and collapsed onto the bed.
She thought she wouldn't be able to sleep, but as soon as her head hit the pillow, she fell asleep.
The dream was chaotic, like fragments from a thousand years ago, disjointed, yet each fragment felt strangely familiar.
It was as if everything in the dream had actually happened.
But when she woke up, she had forgotten almost everything in her dream, except for scattered memories of the dagger.
She remembered that the dagger in her dream seemed more vivid and luminous than it was now, and its name seemed to be... Remaining Life.
She called out softly, and a flash of purple light appeared as the dagger vibrated in her palm, seemingly pleased that she had remembered its name.
Su Chen lightly flicked the blade, and the dagger trembled slightly, circling a small circle around her fingertip.
She vaguely remembered that she seemed to have a long sword, but she couldn't remember what it looked like or what it was called.
"Hey, Su Chen, you're playing with a dagger as soon as you wake up, that's kind of scary." The system turned around and saw her holding a dagger, looking like she was about to stab someone. "Are you rested enough? If you are, let's go to the next world."
Su Chen didn't answer, it was unclear whether she was asking the system or herself, "Will the villain keep following me?"
"You mean that bug? It exists for now, but the main system will definitely send someone to fix it, so you don't need to worry about being bothered by bugs."
Su Chen shook her head and asked, "Do bugs have souls?"
The system replied earnestly, "Logically, there shouldn't be one. It was just an error code. Once the code is corrected, it will disappear."
"Has it disappeared..." Su Chen murmured, her eyes lowered.
The system couldn't figure out what she was thinking.
The system quickly interrupted her, "Alright, let's change the world and change our mood. Don't dwell on one world, after all, we still have to complete the mission and go home."
Su Chen nodded: "Okay, let's go now."
