Chapter 317 : It’s Not Easy Being the Head of Household 1 (1/2)

Shi Sheng lived for a long time in that world. Just as she felt like she could continue living, Xi Yin suddenly kicked the bucket. Because they had a blood contract, Shi Sheng naturally died too.

Having returned to the System Space, Shi Sheng drew her sword and charged over to the screen.

[Host… Host, calm down!!!] System’s cold robotic voice contained a hint of anxiety.

Shi Sheng hacked at the screen with her sword.

Kacha!

Cobweb-like cracks spread across the screen, though it stubbornly remained lit.

[Host, calm down!!!] ‘MASTER, PLEASE COME! HOST HAS GONE CRAZY!’

‘Calm down my arse!’

“Speak! How’d Xi Yin die?!” ‘His body was perfectly fine until it suddenly wasn’t!’

System spoke weakly, [Host… it’s not good for you to stay in a world for too long.]

“Bollocks! Why didn’t you kill me off in the cultivation world then?!”

‘I knew it was this damned system’s doing!’

[……]

Shi Sheng once again hacked at the screen with her sword.

[Host, please do not damage public property.]

“So what if I do, huh? What can you do to me?” Shi Sheng chopped the screen in front of her to bits.

[……] ‘NOTHING…BUT I CAN REPAIR MYSELF.’

The broken screen vanished before Shi Sheng’s eyes, as a perfectly new one appeared in its place.

Shi Sheng’s eyes narrowed and, after a slight pause, the anger on her face vanished.

[……] ‘THERE’S SOMETHING OFF WITH HOST’S EXPRESSION!

FORGET IT, LET’S QUICKLY SEND HER OFF. I(BXT) CAN’T HANDLE SUCH A SCARY HOST.’

Shi Sheng’s stats flashed on the screen.

‘My morality points are really going down the gutter…

Come on! I(bbb) DID create a new era! Aren’t you supposed to reward me for this? Really now…

There’s a problem with your logic!’

[But you disrupted the world’s development.]

“I was just making them evolve faster!”

[……] ‘FORCED LOGIC!’

‘HOST’S CONDITION APPEARS TO HAVE WORSENED…INTO SOMETHING TERMINAL.’

[Do you wish to enter the next mission?]

[Initialising transfer…]

“Fuck, wait a mo—” ‘—ment, I’m(lz) not done talking!’

But Shi Sheng didn’t get a chance to finish her sentence before darkness overtook her vision and she vanished from the System Space.
