I donāt know whatās happening outside, but Zaxxis suddenly received a message and hurried away. Shen Qingli wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but unfortunately, there were heavy guards outside, even a fly couldnāt get out.
Shen Qingli felt like she was extremely unlucky.
But the next words of the system made her feel like she was struck by lightning, stiffening her on the spot.
[Hereās some bad news for the host. After upgrading to the latest system, I detected that Shen Tang is also a tasker bound to a system!]
Shen Qingli snapped out of her shock and clawed creases into the bedding, shouting in a pale face, "How is this possible? Do you have a malfunction?"
But on second thought, no wonder Shen Tang had changed so much since returning from the polluted land, becoming more beautiful and dazzling, she seemed like a different person, and even took the Beast Husband that should have belonged to her.
Shen Qingli had always puzzled over this, secretly suspecting this possibility, and now that the system confirmed it, it all made much more sense.
But the truth made Shen Qingli even more angry, jealous, and unbelievable!
She aggressively questioned the system, "Why does that bitch also have a system? Iām clearly the protagonist of this world, Iām the one and only female lead, why is she bound to a system? Are you deliberately setting her against me!"
The system was speechless from her yelling, rolling its eyes inwardly, and coldly said, [Sorry, Iām just a system taking on tasks, I canāt answer those questions for you, but can confirm that itās the will of the main system.]
[The main system wants to collect quality genetic data from this world, which is why it delegates systems to bind hosts for the task of strategy.]
[The main system wants to select the most efficient system, so it dispatched two major systems to compete. The winning side will receive the final reward, while the losing side will be downgraded and cleared.]
At this point, a trace of gloom appeared in the systemās cold voice, [Warning to the host, you and I are bound as one. If I get obliterated, you will be too!]
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingliās face turned ghostly pale and screamed, "Why? You clearly didnāt say this back then, why should I also be obliterated like you! This is like signing a blank check! Unfair clauses!"
The system sneered, [Host, thereās no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Iāve secured so many privileges for you, transforming you from a plain country female into the much-admired Empire Princess, naturally you have to bear corresponding risks!]
[Besides, thereās no need to be overly nervous. This condition applies to the other tasker too, as long as you can defeat her, all the glory is yours!]
Actually, if the task fails, the host wonāt be obliterated, just have memories erased and returned. But the system is afraid it will be obliterated, so it said this on purpose, wanting Shen Qingli to speed up the strategy.
After all, her current strategy progress is already below the other taskerās.
It has to administer some strong medicine.
Shen Qingli bit her finger helplessly, and coldly said, "Is there any other way?"
[Of course, as long as the host deals with the other tasker in advance, you naturally become the sole winner!]
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingli calmed her mind a little, as long as that bitch dies.
She was thinking about what to do when steady footsteps sounded outside the door.
Soon, the curtain was lifted, and a tall, slender silhouette walked into the tent.
Zaxxis saw Shen Qingli still obediently staying in bed, a hint of satisfaction flashed across his gloomy and handsome face.
Then, he strode over, sat on the edge of the bed, and cradled Shen Qingli in his arms.
Pretending not to notice the female trembling, he brought his thin lips close to her ear, his cold, forked tongue licking her snowy earlobe, and praised, "Youāve been obedient, such a good female."
"Actually, I was thinking, if I found you secretly trying to escape, Iād chain you up, and get a few male beasts to watch over you, hehe~ guess what they might do to you!"
Shen Qingli got goosebumps all over, cursing pervert in her heart, yet still forced a smile, softly asking, "I like you so much, how could I possibly escape? Right, where did you go just now?"
"Dealing with some small troubles, and eliminated a few clueless ants along the way!" Zaxxis didnāt want to discuss boring topics, he picked up the female and sat her on his lap, raising his hand to pinch her soft slender waist, truly she was the Hui Empireās number one beauty, her appearance was indeed irresistible.
The manās large hands roamed restlessly, his voice deep and tempting, "...itās been so long, when will you give me a brood of little lizards?"
Thinking of that scene, Shen Qingli felt nauseous enough to vomit, but recalling her goal, she smiled forcedly, "You and I arenāt married yet, saying this seems a bit too far-fetched."
"Haha, it is a bit far-fetched, when do you plan to marry me, beauty?" Zaxxisās voice turned dangerous, his pale, slender fingers brushed over her slender and elegant neck, the icy touch surrounded like death. A light squeeze would snap her fragile neck.
Shen Qingli swallowed, a ruthless glint flashed in her eyes, boldly saying, "As long as you kill Shen Tang, Iāll marry you!"
Zaxxis raised a brow slightly, eyes full of interest, surprised that she was really persistent.
Again and again, she kept asking him to kill that female.
Killing a female is no trouble, but those Beast Husbands around her are a bit tricky.
Especially that Ninth Rank Snake Beast, its talent is too bizarre, leaving him somewhat at a loss.
Not that it canāt be killed.
But Zaxxis is sly and cunning, not willing to risk himself for a female, and disdainful to put himself in danger for one.
Seeing Zaxxis hesitating, Shen Qingli gritted her teeth and continued to coax, "Shen Tang is currently in the Imperial City, itās the perfect chance to strike, once you kill her, the Empire will be mine."
Her peach-like cheeks, pretty peach-blossom eyes carried a bit of flirtation, her fingers gently circling on his chest, exhaling fragrant breath warmly, "That Shen Tang is the biggest rival in my inheritance right, as long as sheās dead, all the major aristocratic families and the army will obey my commands. Then you and I jointly enjoy the Empireās prosperity, isnāt that good?"
These words clearly pleased Zaxxis, he smiled a bit more sincerely, his large hand caressing her exquisite beautiful face, his voice teasing, "Fine, I can help you kill that female, but...if you deceive me, Iāll destroy you."
"Youāre the one I love most, how could I deceive you." Shen Qingli said this while kissing his lips, boldly flirting and provoking.
Zaxxisās eyes suddenly darkened, flipping her over and pressing her onto the bed, indulging to the fullest.
Soon, the tent was filled with suggestive sounds, stirring the blood of the nearby single male beasts, prompting the guards stationed at the doorway to quickly steer clear, not daring to disrupt the leaderās pleasure.
By the next morning, Zaxxis emerged from the tent, satisfied, and personally assembled his army to lead an attack on the city.
This time the rebel army was determined to seize the Imperial City.
The previous dispatch was merely a reconnaissance force, which had badly weakened the Imperial Cityās group of ants. This Empire was indeed rotten from the inside out, could be easily conquered!
The cat and mouse boring game was enough.
Itās time to completely devour this piece of fat meat!
