Chapter 84
The next day, Qin Zhao was woken up by the cries of 502.
She was the only one left in the room.
502 had turned into a shameless little person, crying and whimpering while repeatedly pulling up the slipped fabric on her shoulder.
"Wuwuwuwu (nasal congestion sound) wuwu......
Qin Zhao impatiently said, "I'm the one who was slept with, not you, why are you crying?"
"Wuwu." 502 continued to cry, "These are tears of envy......
Envy?!
Qin Zhao asked in surprise, "What do you mean?"
502: "The female protagonist of this world is too beautiful!
She's the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. I really want to become the host and take on this task for you!"
It turned out that the woman who had forced herself on Qin Zhao last night was the female protagonist, Qi Yan Su Luo!
Last night it was too dark and she couldn't see the woman's appearance clearly.
Plus, having just crossed over, she hadn't been able to overcome the fatigue of the original body in time, so she was powerless to resist Qi Yan Su Luo.
But why did she do that?
Qin Zhao asked 502, "What happened to the female protagonist last night?"
502 replied, "Yesterday was the Lantern Festival. The female protagonist was forcibly brought onto the painting boat by the Sixth Prince Qin Hong and drugged by him.
The female protagonist escaped into your room, Princess Zhao Yang's room, with her last bit of sanity.
What happened after that was probably beyond even her control."
Qin Zhao: "Although she had difficulties, I'm not someone who takes things lying down. I will definitely find her and settle accounts for this!"
502 trembled: "Host, don't be impulsive. Why not first understand the storyline of this world and the task before making a decision?"
"Hmm."
502 loaded the story into Qin Zhao's mind.
The female protagonist Qi Yan Su Luo was a princess from the Western Grasslands kingdom of West Lin.
The male protagonist Huo Chengjin was the youngest and most valiant general in Yue Country, known as the Asura King. He was ordered by Emperor Qin Zheng of Yue Country to conquer West Lin, resulting in the annihilation of Qi Yan Su Luo's entire tribe.
The reason why the male protagonist didn't kill the female protagonist was because she was too beautiful. He couldn't bear to kill her, so he took her prisoner and brought her back to the capital.
To demonstrate his benevolence and magnanimity, the Emperor did not imprison her in the Imperial Harem, but allowed her to retain her title of princess and live freely in the capital.
But a powerless princess whose country had been destroyed was simply an insult to Qi Yan Su Luo!
The nobles in the capital clearly thought the same, so Qi Yan Su Luo suffered all kinds of humiliation.
Hatred took root and grew wildly in her heart!
Qi Yan Su Luo endured everything and planned carefully, lurking in the capital and looking for opportunities to take revenge for herself and her clansmen and country.
Her number one enemy was the Emperor, followed by the male protagonist!
But the only resource she could utilize was her own beauty, so she made a breakthrough with the male protagonist, who had shown her mercy before, and succeeded in making him fall in love with her.
After that, the male protagonist rebelled at her suggestion.
It must be mentioned here that when the original Princess Zhao Yang was 17 years old, the Emperor married her off to the male protagonist.
Their marriage was in name only, and Princess Zhao Yang pined for his love but could not obtain it, remaining depressed for half her life.
And when the male protagonist rebelled, he beheaded her and used her head as proof to declare war on the Emperor!
What a pitiful original host!
When the male protagonist succeeded in his rebellion and trampled the former Emperor of Yue Country under his feet, the female protagonist discovered that she had also fallen in love with the male protagonist and could no longer bear to kill him.
After a series of entanglements, remorse, and mutual harm and dependence between the two, they lived "happily" together.
But after the end of the original book, the female protagonist discovered letters between the male protagonist and the Emperor of Yue Country in his secret chamber.
The letters mentioned that the Emperor of Yue Country had told the male protagonist not to massacre cities, in order to avoid too much sin that would affect the fortune of Yue Dynasty.
But the male protagonist could not conceal his bloodthirsty nature, and massacred over half of the people of West Lin Country, thus pushing his reputation as the Asura King to its peak!
The female protagonist was thus driven to darkness. While the male protagonist was sound asleep, she slit his throat.
She then committed suicide herself.
This caused the collapse of the small world!
502: "The host's task is to sever the red thread between the male and female protagonists, prevent the female protagonist from turning dark, save the small world, by any means necessary."
After a pause, 502 added: "This task is harder than the last one. The male protagonist's martial arts power is extremely high, and the female protagonist is also gifted with both beauty and wit.
So the Main God has increased the points for successful completion of the task to two million!
Does the host accept?"
Qin Zhao: "Of course."
"Then 502 wishes the host success here!"
"Alright."
Because of the female protagonist's outrageous actions beforehand, she had provided Qin Zhao with ideas. Qin Zhao had already decided to pursue the female protagonist!
Qin Zhao got up to get dressed, but as soon as she moved, she felt sore all over her body. Her ankles in particular had a piercing pain.
Looking down, she saw two neat rows of teeth marks branded on her ankles!
That female protagonist had actually bitten her!
Qin Zhao cursed her from head to toe, then got out of bed gingerly and sat down at the dressing table. Seeing her appearance clearly in the bronze mirror, she couldn't help letting out a low roar!
It was still her familiar foxy face, but from her cheeks to eyelids, a large red patch covered it!
Although it wasn't ugly enough to horrify both humans and gods, it was still frightening enough to make children cry.
Qin Zhao thought speechlessly, the female protagonist really has peculiar tastes to be able to go down on such a face!
The dim light last night must have helped her a lot.
Not long after mocking herself, Qin Zhao found the cause of the red patch from the original host's memories.
The original host was a flawless, beautiful little child when she was young. But after her mother, the Empress, passed away, her treatment plummeted.
It wasn't until she turned 13 that the outside world was shocked to find that Princess Zhao Yang had regained the favor of Emperor Qin Zheng.
Of course, this was just superficial.
At that time, Qin Zheng had fallen seriously ill, and after recovering, he worried that his time was running out. He became obsessed with cultivating immortality and alchemy, vainly attempting to achieve longevity.
In the process, he used the helpless original host to test medicine, resulting in her disfigurement!
To make up for the original host and express his guilt, he rewarded her with countless treasures and tolerated all her wilfulness.
The original host's wilfulness was also an indirect expression of her resentment towards the Emperor.
Because she did not have the power to rebel against the emperor of this dynasty.
She didn't even have the courage to directly show her anger, even though Qin Zheng appeared to dote on her so much in the public eye.
But it was all fake. For many years, Qin Zheng had never stopped using the original host to test medicine!
The original host's health had become very poor. She was hale and hearty on the outside, but frail on the inside. What Qin Zhao felt last night wasn't fatigue, but weakness.
How miserable!
After receiving the original host's memories, Qin Zhao almost cried. How could there be such a tragic princess?
Princess Zhao Yang had already tried very hard to live until now.
She had been self-studying medical books to regulate her body, so she had quite good medical skills.
She was also looking for ways to eliminate the red patch, just hadn't found it yet.
Qin Zhao held back her tears and thought, she would help the original host complete those unfinished tasks.
As for that emperor obsessed with cultivating immortality through alchemy, it was time for him to abdicate!
There was a golden mask on the table that could just cover the red patch. It was a reward from the Emperor to the original host.
502 said, "Host, if you want to get rid of the red patch, it will cost 1,000 points."
Qin Zhao said, "Then thank you very much."
A few seconds later, the red patch disappeared without a trace.
Qin Zhao felt slightly relieved of the frustration pent up in her heart.
She put on the mask and said to the door, "Come in."
