After running for a while, Shi Sheng realized that something was wrong.
When she saw Ye Qingqiu carrying the male lead and rushing towards her, she didn't know what was wrong with her, but she immediately ran.
'Why am I running?
It's not like they're after me. My IQ has dropped after meeting the female lead. '
Just as Shi Sheng was about to turn and run, the huge creature chasing them rushed forward and blocked their path.
"Hiss …"
Shi Sheng: "…" 'What happened to the dragon?
Why did it turn into a snake? '
This was a python that was more than fifty feet long, and its waist was at least as thick as three people. It raised its head and stared at them covetously. Its tail swept left and right, and the trees around them suddenly fell down with a crackling sound.
Ye Qingqiu was puzzled. She clearly saw a dragon, so how did it turn into a snake?
'Could it be …'
'My luck can't be that good, right?'
"Rumble!"
As if to prove Ye Qingqiu's guess, the white and blue sky suddenly turned dark. From the dark clouds, there seemed to be an army charging towards them. A deafening sound echoed through the sky.
"F * ck!" Shi Sheng cursed and turned to run.
'Damn, this snake is about to undergo tribulation!'
'How can a mere Foundation Establishment trash like me withstand the lightning tribulation? I have to run!'
As soon as Shi Sheng ran, Ye Qingqiu ran with her. She was carrying the unconscious male lead, but her speed wasn't any slower than Shi Sheng's.
Most importantly …
'That huge snake that's about to undergo tribulation is right behind us!'
In the original plot, although the original owner participated in this mission, she didn't stop midway. Naturally, she wouldn't have encountered this situation. But in the original plot, the female lead only saved the male lead here. She didn't experience being chased by a snake!
'I only chopped the male lead twice, but the plot has already collapsed beyond recognition?'
Shi Sheng carefully observed the huge snake behind them. She realized that it was staring at Ye Qingqiu. Even if she was a step slower, the snake wouldn't attack her. Instead, it would stare at Ye Qingqiu.
"…" 'Did I take something from the snake?'
'Based on the female lead's character, that might be the case …'
[Hidden Quest: Sovereign's Descent]
'I've been waiting for you for a long time. At this moment of life and death, you actually issued a quest. Do you still have any humanity?'
[Host, this system is not alive. Naturally, it has no human nature.] The System answered Shi Sheng's question seriously.
So, what's with the Sovereign's Descent?
"Let Feng Ci ascend to the throne of the Immortal Emperor."
Feng Ci?
Damn!
Another f * cking villain!
Are all the hidden quests you give out related to the villains? And they were all the ultimate villains?
[During the mission, the host is not allowed to take advantage of the situation or change the concept of the mission. I hope that the host will not seek death and take the mission seriously. Friendly reminder: If the host directly causes the death of the male and female leads, all missions will be considered as a failure. The corresponding amount of the host's HP will be deducted. When the HP reaches zero, the host will be erased.]
Shi Sheng: "…"
This rule … Why did it seem like it was made at the last minute?
If I can't do it directly, I can do it indirectly!
No!
What's with the HP? Why wasn't it here before? System, don't randomly add strange settings!
[Friendly Reminder: Host only has 10 HP left. If we fail this mission, our HP will be reduced to zero.]
Shi Sheng: "…"
'System, you're so reckless. Are you going to manufacture it?'
[…] 'Who is it doing this for? Isn't it all because of you? '
Shi Sheng quickly cursed the system's entire family in his heart.
The hidden missions issued by the system had a pattern. The ultimate BOSS, and that person was near her.
In other words, Feng Ci was here?
… …
More and more dark clouds appeared in the sky, almost covering the entire Forest of Death. The spirit beasts in the Forest of Death all hid in safe places, so the entire forest was terrifyingly quiet.
It was in such a quiet forest.
A man in a moon-white gauze robe was walking slowly. Everywhere he passed, bright yellow flames would wreak havoc. With every step he took, flames would appear, but those flames were unable to burn the plants around him. It was an extremely strange sight.
The flame that stepped out was at least ten meters long.
Beyond that, the flames would slowly extinguish and disappear.
The man slightly raised his head. The dark clouds in the sky were reflected in his dark red pupils. His facial features were not particularly good-looking, but when put together, they had a soul-stirring beauty.
He was like a white lotus blooming in karmic fire, pure and untainted.
He had a sacred feeling that could only be seen from afar and could not be profaned.
"Bang!"
The man slightly tilted his head. What he saw was a petite figure madly running towards him. Behind her was a Shadow Serpent.
So it was the Shadow Serpent.
The man took a few steps to the side and opened up a path for it.
Seeing the burning flames, Shi Sheng knew that this was Feng Ci.
Without even thinking, he directly rushed towards him and shouted, "Handsome, lend me your fire."
Feng Ci's expression did not change. He calmly watched Shi Sheng rush over and then stood in the flames beside him.
The Shadow Serpent sensed that the flames were not something it could withstand, so it quickly braked. However, its tail swept towards Shi Sheng and Feng Ci due to inertia.
Feng Ci gently raised his hand. A flame without heat shot out from his hand and easily deflected the Shadow Serpent's tail.
Shi Sheng: "…" 'Oh my, as expected of a villain.'
With this strength, it would be no problem for him to instantly kill the female lead!!
Ye Qingqiu also came from the other side. When she saw Feng Ci, she was clearly stunned. Then, she calmly looked away.
'As expected, the female lead doesn't have any feelings for villains.'
The Shadow Serpent let out two indignant growls. However, it was afraid of Feng Ci's flames and did not dare to approach. Ye Qingqiu, who came from behind, was in a miserable state. She instantly became the Shadow Serpent's target.
"You don't feel anything from these flames?" Feng Ci ignored the fight between Ye Qingqiu and the Shadow Serpent. Instead, he focused on Shi Sheng.
His eyes were dark red. Under the illumination of the flames, not only did they not appear dark, they were actually very bright and clear. They were like rubies in a display case, overflowing with light and vibrant colors, dazzling the eyes.
Shi Sheng lowered his head and looked at his feet. The flames quietly burned around her, but she could not feel any heat. However, she did not like it.
After all, she had an Ice Spirit Root.
Fire and water were incompatible.
Feng Ci reached out and carefully touched Shi Sheng's cheek. When he touched Shi Sheng, the flames suddenly sprang up and blocked Shi Sheng's vision.
However, she still could not feel any heat from the flames.
Even though the flames were so close to her, she was not hurt at all.
A trace of a smile flashed through Feng Ci's eyes. "You're very special. Follow me from now on."
Shi Sheng: "…"
What? I (bbb) haven't even said anything yet?
But wouldn't hiding anything conflict with the Host's final wish? If she followed Feng Ci, what would happen to Yu Xiao? That stupid system said that as long as she failed a mission, she would be finished.
Wait a minute …
In the Host's final wish, she seemed to have said that it was possible to accompany Yu Xiao?
In other words, as long as she didn't let Yu Xiao die, she would complete the mission!
