A useless person with five spiritual roots? I sacrificed the proud daughter of heaven.

Zhao Yanran didn't think that far ahead; all she knew was that the bigger the better, so she was sure she would fall for it.

Sheng He secretly glanced at the Azure-Eyed Serpent, and seeing that it showed no signs of waking up, he quickly ran away from the swamp.

Sheng He hid behind a large tree not far from the swamp. All she needed to do next was ensure that Zhao Yanran was the first cultivator to reach the swamp.

As for how to guarantee it?

Ao Shuang will provide the answer.

After Sheng He swiftly dispatched the third cultivator who came to pick the Green Wood Vine with a single sword strike, Zhao Yanran finally arrived late.

Sheng He raised an eyebrow and quietly watched Zhao Yanran.

Just as Sheng He had expected, Zhao Yanran had indeed come alone. She held the concealment bead and occasionally looked back to check on Tengshe's situation.

When she arrived at the Green Wood Vine and saw that the Teng Snake was still asleep, Zhao Yanran breathed a sigh of relief and then reached out her hand to the largest Green Wood Vine without hesitation.

“Host, don’t you find it strange? The other green vines are only an inch long, but this green vine is as big as a palm.”

"What's so strange about it? It just means this green vine is growing well."

Zhao Yanran ripped the green vine off.

Sheng He: A smug smile appeared on his face.

The next instant, a puff of poisonous smoke drifted out from the green vine in Zhao Yanran's hand. At the same time, Sheng He gently twisted his wrist, and a dagger shot out swiftly from Sheng He's sleeve, heading straight for Zhao Yanran's face.

Zhao Yanran cried out in alarm and immediately dodged to the side. Unfortunately, the poisonous smoke had already numbed her senses, so she did not notice that a silver needle had been inserted into her right leg at some point.

Zhao Yanran suddenly crashed onto Tengshe's body.

Sheng He crossed his arms, looking like he was about to watch a good show.

That's good, Tengshe will have to wake up whether he wants to or not.

"hiss!"

Tengshe opened its eyes, its emerald green vertical pupils staring unblinkingly at Zhao Yanran, and its coiled body gradually relaxed.

Zhao Yanran stared at the enormous creature before her, its huge snake eyes fixed on her. She felt a chill run down her spine, and her body seemed frozen in place, unable to move an inch.

Even though he was surrounded by so many wolf demons at the auction, at least Chu Heng was there.

And now, there is no one here except her.

"System, system, what should I do? I don't want to die here! Please kill this snake for me!"

"Aaaaaaah! It's coming right at me! What should I do?!"

The bright red snake tongue kept approaching Zhao Yanran. Zhao Yanran screamed. She tried to stand up and run away, but her right leg had completely lost feeling and she fell heavily into the swamp.

Watching Zhao Yanran struggle and thrash around in the mud like an eel, the system sighed helplessly.

"Host, have you forgotten that Master Xuanxiao gave you a life-saving magical artifact?"

Yes, her master gave her many life-saving magical artifacts, how could she have forgotten them for a moment?

Zhao Yanran stopped struggling, took out a jade ring from her storage bag. This jade ring contained a wisp of sword energy from Master Xuanxiao, and Zhao Yanran hurled it at Tengshe.

The moment the jade ring touched the Teng serpent, it emitted a white light, and the sharp sword energy instantly shattered the Teng serpent's scales.

The scales are the hardest part of the Teng Snake's body. It took it thousands of years of cultivation to develop these scales, which are as tough as copper walls and iron walls. But now, they have been shattered by Zhao Yanran's sword.

The serpent roared in pain and opened its blood-red maw to bite Zhao Yanran.

"Why...why isn't it running away?"

Zhao Yanran panicked and threw the treasures in her storage bag out like crazy, but Tengshe's speed did not decrease at all.

Zhao Yanran watched in terror as the gaping maw drew ever closer.

"System, please save me! Didn't you need me to help you complete the mission?"

"System! System, please save me! I promise I'll do whatever you say from now on!"

"system!"

Zhao Yanran received no response whatsoever.

With a look of despair in her eyes, Tengshe swallowed her whole.

In her narrow esophagus, Zhao Yanran clearly heard the sound of her skull cracking.

It’s over.

It's all over.

She died again.

He died such a pathetic death, so... unknown to anyone.

Perhaps people like her are destined to achieve nothing and remain unknown their entire lives.

The excruciating pain returned, and Zhao Yanran completely lost consciousness.

After devouring Zhao Yan, Tengshe still seemed unsatisfied. Its massive body rolled around in the swamp, its huge tail sweeping everywhere, turning the surrounding trees into dust in an instant.

Seeing that the snake's tail was about to sweep towards the tree where he was hiding, Sheng He quickly dodged backward.

Although she witnessed Zhao Yanran being swallowed by the Teng Snake, she couldn't guarantee that Zhao Yanran was completely dead.

After all, she was capable of even switching spiritual roots. Despite her questionable character, she managed to win over most of the disciples in the sect, and there was also that mysterious system.

Zhao Yanran is such a strange woman.

Sheng He believed that she should stay here for two more days to make sure that Zhao Yanran was really dead.

The system looked at Zhao Yanran's body, which had been completely crushed and deformed, and sighed to the heavens, feeling that its mission would never be completed.

Three years ago, it was sent to this world and told that its mission was to make the villainous female supporting character Zhao Yanran a heartthrob and to make all the important male characters in the book have a 90% or higher level of affection for Zhao Yanran.

Therefore, it specifically chose Lin Xue as its host.

Lin Xue was the second child in her family. She had an older sister named Lin Zhaohua and a younger brother named Lin Jinshu. She was named Lin Xue because it was snowing when she was born.

For the twenty years that Lin Xue lived, she was the most inconspicuous person in life. She had average grades and average looks. She was the second child in her family. Her mother liked her older sister and her father liked her younger brother. No one paid attention to her and she had no friends.

Even half a month after she drowned, no one noticed her disappearance.

The system assumed that someone as ordinary, unremarkable, and utterly useless as Lin Xue must be extremely eager for the attention of others.

Therefore, Lin Xue would likely spare no effort and use any means necessary to help him complete the mission.

It was right; Lin Xue did indeed crave attention and affection from others, to become the "heartthrob" the system spoke of.

The only thing the system hadn't anticipated was that Lin Xue was incredibly stupid.

Stupid and arrogant.

He thought that by coming back from the dead and possessing the system, he would be invincible.

She refused to kill Sheng He.

She was told to avoid Sheng He, but she didn't.

When asked to buy the Fire Pearl, she insisted on buying the useless Void Soil.

Lin Xue had ignored all his advice, and now that she was dead, he had to clean up her mess.

The system let out a very long sigh.

Why did it bind itself to such a host in the first place?!
