Shen Qingli instantly realized she’d been plotted against by this bitch, so furious her lungs were about to explode, wishing she could tear that deceitful face apart on the spot!
She never thought in her lifeti that she would be tricked by soone like this!
Necro didn’t even glance at Shen Qingli, who was spitting blood on the ground, as if she were nothing but air. He turned to Shen Tang, his deep voice carrying an unprecedented concern and tension, "Are you hurt?"
Shen Qingli was dumbfounded. Anyone could see who was more injured, right? Necro was so indifferent to her, treating her like a stranger. But clearly before he left, they were entangled in love, and now he ca back, completely unrecognizable?
Shen Tang, afraid that she wouldn’t be angry to death, hid behind the man, pretending to be weak and scared, almost on the verge of tears, "I don’t know why this sister suddenly barged in to threaten , saying I’m just a plaything that won’t last long..."
"I have no grievance or hatred with her, yet she pushed in anger... If it weren’t for the leader’s return, would she, would she have tried to kill ?!"
Shen Qingli’s face turned pale as she hastily defended herself, "Leader, don’t be deceived by her! Clearly it’s her—"
"Enough!" Necro turned to look at her, his gaze icy and terrifying.
He raised his hand, and an invisible force instantly gripped Shen Qingli’s neck, lifting her into the air, his low, cold voice like a hellish demon, "A complete liar, not worth sparing!"
eting his cold and rciless eyes, Shen Qingli’s blood nearly froze.
How could this be?
Wasn’t Necro supposed to love her the most? He’d even kill her for a stranger!
Even if Necro had been under the spell of the True Love Spray, he realized the truth now, realizing he had misrecognized soone these past few days! And this damned female, appearing out of nowhere, dared to impersonate soone to deceive him, and even used him to launch an attack on the Night Glow Empire!
The dignified leader of the rebel army, how could he tolerate being fooled by a female like this? It was a great insult to him! What infuriated him even more was how, if not for this war, his true beloved wouldn’t hate him so much!
Necro was so angered that killing the female before him wasn’t enough to release his fury!
Seeing Necro intent on killing her to vent his anger, Shen Qingli trembled all over with fear.
She tried to use her Space Ability to escape, but such a trick was nothing more than a show of ignorance before Necro.
With a wave of his large hand, the sky filled with blood threads instantly shattered her ability, and Shen Qingli spat out blood again with a "wa" sound.
Shen Tang watched this scene of dogs biting each other coldly; if it weren’t inappropriate for the occasion, she would have laughed out loud and clapped her hands in delight.
But there was still one thing she must clarify.
Shen Qingli could only, and must die by her hand.
The grievances between them must be settled by her personally!
Shen Tang said to Necro, "Can you leave her to to deal with?"
Necro hesitated for a mont; now desperately trying to repair relations with Shen Tang, naturally agreed to all her requests.
So, with a wave of his hand, Shen Qingli was thrown to the ground like trash, her face distorted in pain, barely making a sound.
"I’ll leave her to you to handle. I’ll be outside the door, and if she dares to escape, I’ll kill her on the spot!" Necro’s tone was domineering.
Shen Tang hurriedly added, "Um... I want to talk to her alone, I don’t want anyone to overhear, could you not stand guard outside, and remove the guards at the door too?"
Necro, of course, was unconditionally agreeable to her requests, nodding, "Alright, I’ll withdraw the guards and co back in half an hour."
Shen Tang sincerely said, "Thank you."
Seeing the female’s attitude towards him slightly improve, Necro was in a pretty good mood, nodded, and then strode away.
And with that, the oppressive force vanished too.
Shen Tang breathed a sigh of relief, confirming that Necro and the guards had gone far, she set up an Energy Barrier, ensuring no sound from the tent would leak outside.
Instantly, the tent beca a private space, leaving only her and Shen Qingli, with no one knowing what would happen inside.
Shen Tang approached the female on the ground who was almost in a faint from pain, and bent over to softly say, "Dear sister, long ti no see."
Shen Tang’s voice had been deliberately disguised before, now she reverted to her original tone.
Hearing this familiar voice and greeting, Shen Qingli’s face changed drastically, her eyes filled with near terror.
She scread frantically, "It’s you! It’s truly you, you slut! Shen Tang, how dare you disguise your identity to infiltrate the rebel army headquarters! I will tell Necro that you deceived him! The one who truly deceived Necro is you!"
Shen Tang crossed her arms and watched her breakdown like she was enjoying a clown’s show, a mocking smile forming on her lips, "Still want to struggle on the verge of death? Guess, even if you tell, will he believe you or ?"
Shen Qingli’s pale face flushed with anger, cursing, "You slut, what are you being proud of? Didn’t you rely on that True Love Spray too? Without it, you’d end up like , no... you’d be worse!"
Shen Tang raised her eyebrows, surprised that Shen Qingli guessed it, proving she had so brains.
But...
"So what?" Shen Tang never needed Necro’s love, the so-called spray was purely an accident, if not for Shen Qingli’s antics, she wouldn’t have bothered to co this ti.
From Shen Tang’s fingertips spread invisible Spiritual Threads that firmly bound Shen Qingli, leaving her with no escape.
Watching her pale and frightened face, the smile on Shen Tang’s lips gradually disappeared, her eyes coldly questioning, "What did you an when you said you were forced to escape last ti? What compelled you?"
Shen Qingli knew her ti was near and softened her attitude. Her eyes were red, and she choked pitifully, "Shen Tang, actually, we have no deep-seated hatred for each other and shouldn’t have reached a life-and-death impasse... We’re sisters with blood ties. For the sake of sparing your life back then, please, spare , okay?"
Shen Tang sneered, "Don’t you find it ridiculous to say that? When did you ever spare my life?"
"I, I exiled you to the polluted lands at the ti, it was giving you a way to live! But you ca back anyway... Why did you co back? I had no choice but to kill you..." Shen Qingli clutched her head, hysterically shouting.
Shen Tang couldn’t be bothered to argue over this nonsense. Being exiled to the polluted lands was akin to a deferred death sentence, and who knew when death might co. She keenly caught Shen Qingli’s last terrified words, "I must kill you."
If it were only for the throne and power, Shen Qingli wouldn’t have said this or shown such a fearful and panicked expression.
She seed more like she was afraid of so kind of outco.
Shen Tang pressed, "Explain it a bit clearer."
Shen Qingli seed to fall into a trance, muttering to herself, "We were born the sa, so why are you above ... They said, the rules of the competition, only one of us can live..."
"What rules?"
Shen Tang strained to hear her murmuring as it seed muddled, obscured by so force.
Suddenly, Shen Qingli looked up at her, "Guess, why do you think the system binds the two of us?"
Shen Tang was stunned, her blood ran cold all over.
Shen Qingli got up from the ground, slowly approaching her, her voice filled with a certain eerie allure, "Sister, want to know why? Co closer, a little closer... Sister will tell you—ah!"
When they were less than half a ter apart, Shen Qingli suddenly pulled out a dagger to stab Shen Tang!
Shen Tang reacted faster, grabbing her wrist and snapping it with a "crack."
Shen Qingli howled in agony, rolling on the ground in pain.
Shen Tang coldly said, "Truly incorrigible."
She gathered energy in her palm, forming it into a sharp blade, "There’s no saving you, today is your death day."
Shen Qingli cried, threatening, "No! You can’t kill ! Our lives are tied together! If I die, you won’t live long either! Don’t you want to know the secret? If you spare , I’ll tell you!"
Shen Tang sneered, "I don’t care!"
She had been fooled once and wouldn’t be tricked again.
All she wanted now was to kill Shen Qingli!
Yet in the mont the blade was about to fall, Shen Tang suddenly felt an indescribable resistance, and she couldn’t bring the knife down. She frowned and asked the system, "What’s happening?"
[Host, it seems your fate is bound with Shen Qingli’s, and it’s a one-sided binding,] the system speculated. [After all, Shen Qingli was the original female lead, and her death would affect a large part of the plot. With your blood bond, your relationship is the closest, so you’re heavily influenced by fate and can’t strike her down.]
Shen Tang’s eyes sharpened, "Use the Destiny Scissors!"
[Alright, host.]
In the void, an invisible thread was quietly cut.
Shen Tang imdiately felt the sense of constraint vanish.
Amidst Shen Qingli’s piercing screams, the blade plunged directly into her heart.
"You will regret this... Soday you’ll understand..." Shen Qingli lay in a pool of blood, her breath swiftly fading.
Having learned from past mistakes, Shen Tang worried she might not be thoroughly dead, so she stabbed several more tis.
After confirming Shen Qingli had completely stopped breathing, Shen Tang relaxed her body, as if shedding a heavy burden, "Is she really dead this ti?"
[Yes, host. It’s confird that Shen Qingli’s life signs have completely disappeared. This was her last life, she won’t be resurrecting,] the system reported.
The system celebrated with jubilant firecracker sounds, [Congratulations, host, on winning this competitive ga and successfully defeating the other task executor!]
Looking at the corpse on the ground, Shen Tang thought: It’s all over.
Easier than imagined.
But for so reason, her heart felt empty; she didn’t feel the anticipated thrill and instead had an indescribable bitterness, with her eyes slightly moist, almost bringing tears.
Shen Qingli’s life was both hateful and laughable, pitiful and tragic.
In the end, she was the original owner’s only relative in this world. Without the ddling of the system, maybe they could have coexisted peacefully.
...No, they wouldn’t have.
Shen Qingli’s personality had long been twisted, even without the system, she would still fight Shen Tang to the death for power and profit.
Shen Tang collected her thoughts and asked the system, "Defeating another task executor, isn’t there a reward?"
[The original female lead was the child of destiny. Be glad there’s no punishnt for killing her! But the host will no longer have to worry about Shen Qingli causing trouble—wait, there actually seems to be a reward!]
A golden light erged from Shen Qingli’s body, gently falling into Shen Tang’s palm.
