So satisfying! The Great Demon King wiped out everyone equally!

As soon as Instructor Wu left, a group of girls immediately gathered together, chattering and gleefully discussing how Instructor Wu's face had turned as black as charcoal.

"He always looks down on us girls, now he's completely humiliated."

"That's right. My mother told me to learn martial arts well so that I can marry a scholar and be the one to beat him."

The princes and scions of noble families looked at each other, sighed helplessly, and then began to swing their swords a hundred times.

They all looked worried, and the swords in their hands seemed to weigh a ton, making each swing seem so difficult.

The news spread like wildfire, even reaching the Emperor and Empress.

The emperor, upon hearing that a boy who had practiced martial arts since childhood could not defeat a girl who had only studied swordsmanship for three months, narrowed his eyes slightly, stroked his beard, and showed a look of admiration on his face, exclaiming, "Women are just as capable as men."

In response, Instructor Wu's face darkened, his lips pressed tightly together, and he said nothing. He secretly resolved that from now on he must intensify the training of the princes and scions of noble families.

The emperor issued an imperial edict, bestowing upon Xie Canglan the title of Princess Wuling, and rewarding her with one hundred pearls, fifty bolts of silk and satin, and one thousand taels of gold. She was also granted the fief of Lingzhou, with a fief of one thousand households.

The entire General's Mansion was immersed in this sudden glory, and everyone was happy for Zhaohua.

From then on, daughters of prominent families followed suit, and the trend of learning martial arts flourished.

Xie's father was still on his way back to the capital and was completely unaware of this glorious event.

..........................................

Time slipped by quietly, and summer arrived in the blink of an eye. A gentle breeze blew by, and Canglan lazily nestled on a deck chair, stretching and yawning from time to time, looking quite content.

"Summer is here, the lotus flowers are blooming, and the strategy girl and the system should be arriving soon!"

[Host, if I'm not mistaken, it's today!]

"Okay, I'm going to take a nap. Call me if anything comes up!"

The next moment, Canglan closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.

Xiao Bai thought to himself: Do teenagers love to sleep so much?

An hour later...

"Drip~"

A mechanical voice came through, "Host, that is Xie Zhaohua, the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion. Your mission is to win over the male lead Li Yu and help him ascend the throne. Gaining the favor of key figures will also earn you points to unlock the system shop. Becoming a beauty will no longer be a dream!"

After completing the mission, you can choose whether to leave the world. If you choose to return to the real world, you will also receive a cash reward of five million and a luxury villa.

Xiao Bai thought to himself: Only five million! No, he should wake up the host.

Startled, Xiaobai grabbed a megaphone and started shouting, "Host, the Favorability System is here! Host, wake up!"

Canglan, who had been sleeping, woke up the moment the system appeared. "Why the hell are you shouting like that! Do you need to speak? I can hear you!"

Xiao Bai said, feeling wronged, "I know I was wrong!"

Xie Xing'er wore an innocent expression, blinking her eyes. "System? If I transmigrate into this girl's body, will she die?"

After saying that, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, revealing a sinister smile.

"Please don't ask questions you already know the answer to. I know exactly what kind of person you are."

The system's voice was cold and devoid of emotion. This host, who clearly chose Xie Zhaohua's body, was acting as if she were being forced. Is this what human pleasure is?

"Tch, I was just asking casually. Once I use her body to become empress, she'll be at peace in the afterlife! No, she should be grateful to me!" With that, Xie Xing'er glanced at me sideways, her face full of contempt and arrogance, as if the whole world was beneath her notice.

Xiao Bai: Host, she's such a faker!

Favorability System: "Mission initiated, 100 points deducted!"

"Are you kidding me? Deducting 100 points?" Xie Xing'er frowned, her face showing displeasure and confusion.

"Xie Zhaohua is as strong as an ox. You must enter her body when she is weak. It will cost 100 points to make her fall into the water and die accidentally."

Xie Xing'er frowned, her expression as if she had eaten an extremely sour fruit, and reluctantly agreed to the system's decision.

Little White popped out of the space, tilted its head, and asked, "Host, do you want to jump into the river now?"

Cang Lan slowly opened his eyes and responded to the system in his mind: "100 points and you want me to commit suicide? This system might as well just kill me outright."

"That's right, this system is obviously a knock-off. It's not as cute as me, not as powerful, and definitely not from the same place as me." Little White puffed out his chest, looking smug.

Half an hour later...

"What's going on? Why hasn't she gone to the pond yet?"

Xie Xing'er was already impatient. If she weren't a soul now and didn't need the system to intervene, she would have pushed her into the water herself.

The system hesitated and said, "Wait a little longer, the 100 points won't take effect so quickly!"

A very, very long time passed, so long that Canglan lost patience.

She decided to give them a chance to see how they would get themselves into the water, so Canglan slowly walked towards the pond.

System: "I knew there would be a delay in points accumulation. Look, she went to the pond!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..." A level 5 gale blew by, strong enough to blow a person away.

Cang Lan crossed his arms, secretly chuckled, and remained motionless, as steady as Mount Tai.

The system was taken aback: "What? I'll try again."

"Buzz buzz buzz—!" A powerful gust of wind swept in, blowing everything around them into disarray, and even snapping a tree in half.

Canglan remained unfazed, standing firm against the wind, and turned to leave with light steps.

The Favorability System was even more shocked: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, who is she?"

Xie Xing'er stomped her feet in anger: "Are you asking me?"

Favorability System: "One hundred points have been deducted. If the points fall below -500, the penalty mode will be activated. Host, would you like to change the candidate?"

"No replacement!" Xie Xing'er gritted her teeth. She refused to believe it! If once wasn't enough, she'd try twice; if twice wasn't enough, she'd try three times. She was determined to have this body.

In the evening, after Canglan finished her meal, took a bath, read some comic books, and then prepared to go to bed.

She had been waiting for the system and Xie Xing'er's next plan, but they hadn't spoken. If they disturbed her sleep, she wouldn't mind sending them to meet their maker immediately.

[Host, go to sleep. I'm here. If they try anything against you, I'll shoot them with Cupid's arrow.]

"Hmm, okay then!"

In the middle of the night, Chunxia quietly pushed open Canglan's door. Her expression was blank, as if she had lost her soul. She slowly walked towards Canglan, clutching a silver hairpin tightly in her hand.

[Murder! Murder! Host, wake up!] Xiaobai's urgent voice rang in Canglan's mind.
