This villain has become a ghost

【Because...someone helped me.】

[The previous system died due to destiny, and many rulers were unable to sit still.]

Several rulers who were on good terms with the previous system joined me in attacking this world and forcing Destiny to compromise. Otherwise, we would destroy this world and make Destiny disappear completely.

Qiu Shuangwan was stunned when she heard this and said, "...Six, that's too much."

Jingtan asked: [Miss Yue, do you have any other questions?]

Of the three, Yue Liuyun was the most resistant to giving up. Her furrowed brow made it clear she wasn't going to be easily dealt with.

"Yes," Yue Liuyun glanced at Nangong Mingzhu calmly and asked, "First, why us?"

"Secondly, what's the matter with the mission you gave me?"

"Third, why do Nangong Mingzhu and I share the same soul?"

Jingtan took a deep breath and slowly answered her:

[You were chosen because... just like blood types, souls also require matching and compatibility.]

Wanqing and Brother Liu's souls meshed perfectly, almost seamlessly, while their original souls were temporarily taken in by Heaven's Fate.

"And Miss Yue is a typical example of a soul and body that are not in harmony. To be honest, this is because of my mistake, so..."

Jing Tan hesitated for a moment, then continued:

[Adding to the constraints of destiny, leaving aside the two of them, their souls won't be in any major trouble, but Miss Yue, that's not necessarily the case.]

Qiu Shuangwan and Nangong Wanqing both turned their gazes towards Yue Liuyun, a sense of foreboding rising in their hearts.

Yue Liuyun held his forehead with one hand and listened to Jingtan's next words.

[Your soul is slowly weakening until it dissipates. From now on, Nangong Mingzhu's time occupying this body will become longer and longer, while your time will become shorter and shorter...]

Her soul was slowly weakening until it dissipated... No wonder she couldn't take control of her body. It turned out that her soul had weakened earlier than she expected.

Yue Liuyun said expressionlessly, "You should know that Ling Chaomian also said this."

【I know. 】

Yue Liuyun said sadly, "At that time, I thought that with the power of the system, you would be sent to my world before I dissipated. Now don't tell me that you can't do it."

【Feel sorry. 】

Yue Liuyun: “…”

Don't rush to apologize.

Let her take a break first.

This apology had already chilled her heart.

[Your guess was actually not wrong, but that was the capability of the previous system, and I can't do it for the time being.]

"According to this world's time dimension, I've only been the new Ruler for seven years, and my abilities are still... very weak. Even your soul and Brother Liu's have traces of the previous system's influence."

If the soul is intact, I can return it safely, just like Wanqing and Brother Liu. However, Miss Yue, your soul is damaged. I'm sorry, I really can't do that.

Yue Liuyun: “…”

Okay, now that’s it.

It's not just a matter of dying immediately, but also of being utterly horrified, the kind that even the Bodhisattva can't save.

What a big surprise.

I'm afraid her broken little heart can't bear it.

"...System, you lied to me. You said that after I completed the task, you would send me back to my original world." She said with despair.

As a result, her soul is now becoming weaker and weaker, and may even dissipate.

If you have lost your life, what conditions are you talking about or what mission are you carrying out?

There was a hint of uneasiness in Jingtan's voice. Although he tried to soothe her, he could hardly hide his inner guilt.

[I only found out about your situation later. I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry. I'll find a way.]

After all, it was his mistake that led to all this, and he would definitely find a way to solve the problem.

Yue Liuyun said: "Thank you."

Qiu Shuangwan's eyes were filled with tears, thinking back to Yue Liuyun's reliability and protection for him since she traveled through time, and thinking that she might die, she felt even more upset.

He reached out and patted Yue Liuyun's shoulder, comforting her: "Don't worry, the system will definitely find a way to save you."

Jingtan: [……]

Don’t say that, actually this is not necessarily true.

Yue Liuyun nodded perfunctorily at Qiu Shuangwan, his heart as dead as death and his face expressionless.

System, destiny, what should we do with you two naughty little goblins? She can be reduced to ashes in the midst of chatting and laughing.

Nangong Wanqing sighed deeply, stared at Yue Liuyun, and asked Jingtan in a deep voice: "Atan, is there really no other way?"

[…Sorry, I’ll definitely try harder.]

Jingtan felt both guilty and remorseful, and started brainstorming, hoping to come up with a solution as quickly as possible.

The three time travelers were communicating with the system in their hearts. Nangong Mingzhu could not hear what the system said, nor could he hear the content of the conversation between them and the system.

But Qiu Shuangwan's words "I will definitely find a way to save you" were said to Yue Liuyun, and Nangong Mingzhu heard it clearly.

His pupils suddenly shrank, and his hands that were hugging his chest dropped. There was a hint of unknown emotion in his eyes, like the dark ink before a rainstorm. His thin lips were tightly pursed as he stared at the moon and clouds.

"Yue Liuyun, what do you mean by 'I will definitely find a way to save you'? What's wrong with you?" he said in a deep voice.

Yue Liuyun shrugged, raised his eyes, and sighed casually, half-seriously, half-pretendingly, and said, "The system says I will die."

It will still disappear until not even a trace of it is left.

There was no way to prepare in advance to collect her body, because there was not even a decent corpse, just to say how miserable it was.

The lazy smile in Nangong Mingzhu's eyes was no longer there. Instead, anger was hidden in the bottomless emotions, approaching her directly, as if he was looking through the body and directly into the soul.

He closed his eyes, the scene of their conversation in the hexagonal pavilion vividly in his mind. He spoke word by word, "What Ling Chaomian said at that time... was it true?"

"Is it that the system can't save you?"

Yue Liuyun didn't say anything.

Nangong Mingzhu narrowed his beautiful eyes slightly, and the coldness in his eyes made him look very dangerous, as cold as the moon in the sky, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry in his tone.

He said in a low voice, "Or is it that ridiculous destiny?"

Fate had made his life miserable, half his life drifting in a sea of blood. Fate had left him with no choice, and Fate had burdened him with an undeserved fate...

Now, destiny is about to destroy a soul from another world, one that harbors no ill intentions and even wishes only to save him...

"If... I destroy this world directly, can I defy fate and save you?"

There was a bloodthirsty look in his eyes, and his pupils were red, just like the expression he had when he swung a knife to kill people. There was even a violent smile at the corner of his lips.

Yue Liuyun's eyebrows twitched, frightened by these earth-shattering and soul-stirring words. He quickly soothed her, "...Calm down."

What a dangerous statement.
