Chapter 53 [053] Don’t Try to Control

The earth was shaking violently, as if a giant beast that had been suppressed for a long time was slowly rising up and breaking through the mountain that had been pressing on it for a long time.

The Red Blood Sealing Formation has been sealing off ferocious beasts for tens of thousands of years, and is now extremely fragile. That is why it can be easily broken from the outside.

The surrounding mountains seemed to feel the surging force from the bottom. They began to shake violently, and hard rocks and dry branches rolled down like rain.

The ground emitted bursts of deafening roars, sand and rocks flew everywhere, and the sky collapsed and the earth cracked.

For a moment, the entire Bald Stone Ridge was filled with the smell of dust and stones, making it almost impossible to breathe.

The dead trees swayed, and harsh friction sounds continued. The evil energy in the strong wind flattened a mountain in an instant with its overwhelming force!
From the moment you step into Bald Rock Ridge, everything around you is an illusion.

Including the inability to use spiritual power.

It's all because of the influence of hallucinations, which have tampered with consciousness and made people think that spiritual power is ineffective.

But in fact they could have used it all the time, otherwise when Shi Qing saved Zhongli Jin for the last time, he would not have been able to break the magic circle.

The seal cannot be broken without spiritual power.

That's why Zhou Wu tried to use the spiritual power of the monks to destroy the final sealing formation.

Shi Qing had no time to continue blaming himself and attacking Zhou Wu.

There are more important things now.

Since Zhou Xiaowu is just a lie, what about Liu Xitong?
She must rush back to the cave to find Junior Sister Cangying and Junior Brother Xu!
"Let's go!" Shi Qing grabbed Zhong Lijin. After the illusion disappeared, the white bandages around her body suddenly danced wildly, "Look for Cangying!"

A transparent white sword appeared in front of the two men. Shi Qing jumped onto the sword, and Zhongli Jin followed closely behind.

The young man knew what Shi Qing meant, and he was also worried about the situation with Senior Sister Cangying.

Liu Xitong - the woman who behaved strangely from the moment they met, was most likely a demon.

But - the situation here is also serious!

[Junior! The Red Blood Sealing Array can still be repaired! You can take out the basic array disk you carry with you and carve a new one to repair it before Fei Yi completely breaks the seal!]

[Carving array?! But I have never seen the pattern of the Red Blood Sealing Array! How to start?! ]

The old man was startled. He blurted out the words just now, but he forgot that the young man in front of him did not know how to carve the magic circle.

However, he felt that Zhongli Jin should be able to do it, as if the same thing had happened before!

[No problem!] The old man said: [The core of this magic array is under the valley, and it is in a damaged state. Hurry up and let this girl take you down the mountain and rush to the crack. I will give you guidance!]

This is the only remedy now.

Zhongli Jin looked solemn and clenched his fists and said: [Okay! ]

"Shi Qing, take me to the crack!" the young man whispered in Shi Qing's ear.

"Hmm? Where do you want to go?" Zhou Wu suddenly made a move, with a mischievous smile on the handsome boy's face.

With a wave of his sleeve, the demonic energy that had been circling around him condensed into a giant black wolf. "Your fellow disciples should have all died after you left the cave."

"So now, stay," he narrowed his eyes, and his seemingly innocent and well-behaved face showed a wicked and arrogant smile, and he said word by word: "Play with me."

"Ow-!!"

The demon wolf howled, and the earth shook even more violently.

Shi Qing waved her hand, and a piece of the bandage wrapped around her arm was cut off. It carried her spiritual power and turned into a long sword, rushing towards the demon wolf and fighting with it.

Taking advantage of this gap, the white sword under her feet suddenly slid out an arc and flew rapidly down the original path up the mountain!

"Want to escape?" Zhou Wu blinked, smiled and snapped his fingers lightly. Suddenly, a huge rock rose from the ground, blocking Shi Qing's way to fly away.

Zhongli Jin took out the Mountain Breaking Talisman from his sleeve, injected spiritual power into it and launched it halfway like a dart, chanting: "The universe is reversed, yin and yang are in harmony! Shatter mountains and crack rocks, and all laws are broken!"

The talisman was attached to the huge rock, instantly blasting a huge gap in it!

Shi Qing rushed out of the gap on his sword, and in a blink of an eye he had put a long distance between himself and Zhou Wu.

The young man stayed where he was, seemingly not intending to continue stopping them.

The strong wind blew up his clothes and hair, and there was a look of playfulness and interest on his pretty face.

The demon tiger beside him rubbed his head like a cat. Zhou Wu stretched out his hand and scratched the demon tiger's chin. Like a bad boy, he murmured with a smile: "Oh, yes, there are still important things to do. I can't play around."

"Anyway, if they hadn't died here, we would have met again."

He laughed happily, then lowered his eyes to look at his feet. A crack spread from the foot of the mountain all the way upwards.

The winds and clouds surged, and the world changed suddenly.

The young man narrowed his eyes, staring at the giant beast surging in the crack, and said, "Let's go."

Then the demon tiger turned into a ball of thick demonic energy again, wrapped him up, and finally disappeared with him in the world.

*
The monsters in the mountains fled in all directions, and the monsters could use their magic energy to devour each other.

If they don’t want to be eaten by the ferocious beasts at the bottom of the mountain, even they have to flee from here.

The crack gradually widened and finally formed a chasm, dividing the continuous Tushiling Mountains into two!
When this mountain range completely splits, a giant fat snake will rush out from the bottom of the valley and bring severe drought to the world.

The speed of flying on the sword was very fast. In less than half a cup of tea, the two returned to the foot of the mountain.

Zhong Lijin immediately jumped off the sword and ran towards the chasm, saying, "You go find Senior Sister Cang and the others, I'll go take a look at the forbidden formation!"

Just like in the Magic and Martial Arts Secret Realm, the young man approached the most dangerous place without thinking.

Shi Qing probably knew what Zhongli Jin was going to do, although he didn't say it, he understood.

"Be careful." After she reminded the boy, she took out a talisman from her waist, injected spiritual power into it, looked serious, and then shattered it, calling out a name in a deep voice - "Sanqing Mountain, Cangying."

*
Ten minutes ago.

Shen Xiang turned over in her sleep and hit her back against a stone, which woke her up immediately.

"Hiss——" She frowned, opened her eyes, and sat up with difficulty.

But as soon as she came to see the world clearly from her sleepiness, she was stunned by the scene in front of her!

Cangying fell to the ground covered in blood, breathing weakly, and already unconscious.

Disciple Xu was nailed to a rock with a long sword, bleeding like a waterfall, dying. When he saw Shen Xiang wake up, he spoke with difficulty, intermittently and hoarsely: "Run... quickly."

After saying those two words, he finally couldn't hold on and passed out.

Shen Xiang's eyes widened. The girl, who had never seen such a tragic scene before, was frightened and speechless. She collapsed to the ground, trembling all over.

"Cang, Cang...Xu...you guys..."

"Awake?"

A woman's light laughter came from her ear. Shen Xiang's limbs were stiff and cold, and her heartbeat was abnormal. She smelled a strong smell of blood and an unpleasant stench, as if something was rotting.

"I say, you are such an idiot." The woman stood beside her, lowering her eyes and staring at Shen Xiang with contempt, her red lips slightly curled, her tone cold and mocking: "It's a pity that the halo on you is equivalent to waste here!"

"Oh, of course." Liu Xitong smiled and said, "You are also a waste."

"!"

Chen Xiang felt a chill in his heart, and the chill spread from his heart all the way to his limbs!

what did she say?
Halo?!
Shen Xiang suddenly raised her head and looked at Liu Xitong. The woman seemed to have known her for a long time and looked down at her condescendingly, "You are so disappointing. Why did I choose such an idiot host like you?"

this moment.

Shen Xiang's guess came true!
Liu Xitong.

Xitong.

--system!
No wonder it disappeared after the quarrel at Lingshen Mountain. No matter how I called it, it didn't respond!

It turned out that he had gone and got himself a body, pretending to be a person from this world!
"What do you want to do?!" Shen Xiang roared in fear.

Liu Xitong raised an eyebrow: "Me? My goal is very simple, which is to complete the plot of this world, have a happy ending with the male protagonist, and complete the world line."

"Of course, the one who ascends with the hero Zhongli Jin in the end will no longer be you."

There was a morbid admiration and possession in the woman's eyes.

Chen Xiang was shocked. She finally understood why the system's words directed at Shi Qing were so familiar!
——What a shock.

A system that takes the host to do tasks.

I actually fell in love with the male protagonist of that world!

Liu Xitong leaned close to Shen Xiang's ear, his eyes full of ruthlessness, and said proudly: "It was my fault for giving you hope in the past."

"In the future, I will correct this mistake."

"I didn't expect that even though I made you lose your memory, I couldn't stop you from liking Shi Qing, so I have to find another way." She smiled: "Replace you and accomplish all this."

When Shi Qing was mentioned, Shen Xiang suddenly looked up and looked directly into Liu Xitong's eyes, "Where's Shi Qing?!"

"Her?" The woman said disdainfully, "A vicious female supporting character in the original novel who is afraid of death and loves life. Are you still thinking about her?"

Shen Xiang retorted angrily: “She is not such a person!”

The fear he felt when he saw the tragic scene after waking up disappeared without a trace after he discovered that the woman was a system.

As the host, the system coexists with her, so this woman doesn't dare to do anything to herself!
"Do you really believe it?" Liu Xitong raised his eyebrows: "Do you know what the original plot of this part is?"

She looked at Shen Xiang as if she was looking at something that couldn't be any stupider. "In the original story, because of Shi Qing's recklessness, the Red Blood Sealing Formation that suppressed the Feiyi beast in Tushiling was destroyed. At the critical moment, she abandoned Zhongli Jin and fled alone. Later, you can see if she comes back alone."

Shen Xiang was so angry that her tone was a little unstable: "If it was just to correct the plot, why did you do it to Cangying and Xu Zhongtian?! Did they die here in the plot?!"

"That's not the case." Liu Xitong shrugged, his tone extremely cold, "So I left them with a breath."

“But—” She narrowed her eyes slightly: “Cang Ying is a second female lead. In the original novel, I saw that she was open-minded and willing to let go of Zhong Li Jin, so I didn’t intend to target her at first. But you also saw during the day that she liked Zhong Li Jin. How dare she make me so unhappy in front of me.”

"What about Senior Brother Xu?" Shen Xiang's eyes were red as he stared at her.

"Him." Liu Xitong said coldly: "I like Shi Qing, but he actually likes that woman. I am even more upset."

"..."

Shen Xiang looked at her quietly.

After a while, he suddenly seemed to understand something and spoke with a sneer.

"That's it."

"So - you are really jealous of Shi Qing, jealous to the point of going crazy."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Xitong's eyes suddenly became sinister and dark!

"Shut up! I'm not jealous of her! I just hate! I hate everything that's out of control!" She angrily said, "A vicious female supporting role should be a vicious female supporting role! How can she be different from the original?! I thought it was just a change in the female supporting role's personality and it wouldn't have any impact on the future plot, but in the end-"

She stared at Shen Xiang: "You actually like it?"

"You still want to give up the mission! Give up going home! Stay in this world?!"

So it found a way to erase Shen Xiang's previous memory of Sanqing Mountain, allowing her to return to the state when she first traveled through time, and guided Shen Xiang to hate Shi Qing, use Shi Qing, and frame Shi Qing.

In the end—she still liked it!
Liu Xitong suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Shen Xiang's neck tightly, his eyes gloomy and cold, "You useless waste! I really want to kill you!"

Chen Xiang's nails tightly gripped Liu Xitong's wrist, and he smiled slightly crazily, staring at it with wide eyes, and taunted with difficulty: "Kill me... do you dare?"

Liu Xitong really didn't dare.

She is bound to Chen Xiang. If the host dies and the mission fails, she will be sent back to the Space-Time Administration. If her actions in this small world are known during the review, she will definitely be sent to be destroyed!
But not killing Shen Xiang doesn't mean she can't torture her.

Liu Xitong sneered, "I've had enough of being a system. I thought you could complete the mission and let me share a body with you and Zhong Lijin, but since I knew you were a fool, I decided to keep him all to myself. Your only role now is to stay alive. I don't expect you to follow the plot. Anyway, in the end, as long as Zhong Lijin successfully ascends, I can occupy your body and live with him forever."

"The Spacetime Administration can't find out either. After all, no one would have thought that the system could actually take over the host's body."

After saying that, she let go of Shen Xiang before she almost fainted.

Liu Xitong stood up and straightened his clothes.

Shen Xiang started coughing violently. Her eyes were bloodshot due to lack of oxygen caused by being strangled. The whites of her eyes turned red. "Cough, cough! Shi Qing... Shi Qing will come back later and see this... She won't let you go!"

"Oh?" Liu Xitong didn't care at all, "Then come and kill me."

When this body dies, she will only return to the system space. People in the small world cannot kill her at all.

After saying that, a long whip appeared out of thin air in Liu Xitong's hand, "I'm still angry, you have to bear it."

She smiled, looked at Shen Xiang with an unfriendly expression, raised the long whip in her hand, and said: "I really hate stupid hosts like you who don't follow the plot."

"Snapped!"

The long whip fell and hit Shen Xiang hard!
However, she said nothing and continued to look at Liu Xitong with those hateful and mocking eyes.

"Don't even think about controlling me." Chen Xiang said with a smile, "Before I lost my memory, I must have hated you to death, right?"

The host and the system are fed up with each other.

This mission is doomed to fail.

Liu Xitong was so angry that he whipped her hard for the second time!

But this time—a flash of white light suddenly appeared in the cave, blindingly bright.

The familiar voice finally rang in Shen Xiang's ears—"Sanqing Mountain, Cangying."

Here we go! Zhongli Jin and Chenxiang are both going to recover their memories! ~~~ From now on, they will be the two generals who are jealous of each other and compete for the favor of the heroine!
