He Tiantian didn’t an to say Zheng Nianer was wrong; people have greed and will enjoy the fruits of others’ labor—that’s human nature.
Zheng Nianer might have resisted, but in the end, she succumbed. At most, she just wasn’t determined enough.
... Forget it, forget it. As for how Zheng Nianer really is, He Tiantian doesn’t judge.
She’s just a writer, not the Heavenly Dao judging everyone. As long as she can act with a clear conscience, that’s enough!
He Tiantian continued to unobtrusively absorb energy. She had almost absorbed all the energy belonging to the novel world that the Wild System had "entrusted," as well as the energy she siphoned after coming into contact with Emperor Yongcheng.
Boom!
Though the amount of energy wasn’t much, it caused a change in He Tiantian’s Divine Sense.
She discovered that she seed to have awakened the "Heavenly Eye," allowing her to clearly capture the colors of the energy flows in the air.
It’s not that He Tiantian couldn’t sense them before.
She had been cultivating the Junior Master Uncle’s Wuji Technique, and her Divine Sense had gradually beco stronger.
He Tiantian could clearly sense the various energy gases around her, be they Spiritual Energy, yin energy, Evil Qi, etc.
But she couldn’t "see" the colors and shapes of those gases like in comics or movie effects.
Because gases are inherently colorless and formless.
Things like Spiritual Energy and Evil Qi are just feelings people have.
But now, having absorbed the Wild System’s energy, it’s as if He Tiantian had been enhanced with movie effect buffs, allowing her to see all the energy clusters clearly.
White, yellow, red, and glittering gold.
The energy of ordinary people was mostly white, sotis mixed with a hint of yellow.
Those who had done wrong, or succumbed to greed would have yellow energy, with more serious transgressions, even showing hints of red.
People who had killed or committed heinous acts had purely scarlet energy.
As for the glittering gold energy, it belonged only to Zhao Gui, the male lead in this small world.
This was approximately the so-called "Dragon Energy."
As both the male lead and the Emperor, Zhao Gui naturally had a protective golden aura.
This golden light might be accumulated from past good deeds or directly enhanced by the world’s consciousness as a protagonist’s aura.
But no matter the situation, it’s a very potent energy.
The Wild System’s goal must be to steal the Dragon Energy.
But Zhao Gui is the Emperor and the male lead; his Qi Fortune is closely tied to the Dayuan Dynasty.
Once his Dragon Energy is largely stolen, the Dayuan Dynasty will beco unstable.
The novel world will follow suit in its chaos.
Eventually, perhaps it’ll even collapse!
Thus, even if not for the task, but for the countless people in this novel world, He Tiantian must defeat this Wild System!
He Tiantian continued to operate the Wuji Technique, and strands of black energy were slowly being extracted by her, transford into her own Spiritual Power through the cultivation technique.
This process was not noticed by the Wild System, nor by Zheng Nianer, whose mind was full of missions.
"Counter the Empress Dowager He? Face-slapping success?" Zheng Nianer realized that her tasks had beco increasingly difficult since returning to the Capital City.
In the past, she only needed to cooperate a little to easily complete her tasks.
But now... Counter Empress Dowager He? Successfully face-slap her, seriously?
Did the system think it was joking?
Who is Empress Dowager He?
She is a ruthless person who killed the late Emperor and took control of the court.
Zheng Nianer is not the original owner; she wouldn’t be conceited to think that Lady Hu beat Empress Dowager He, making her soone easy to bully.
Ha, just because the Emperor shows favoritism to Lady Hu, does it an Lady Hu truly succeeded against Empress Dowager He?
Zheng Nianer is very conscious; in the face of the little Emperor getting close to Lady Hu and distancing from her, Empress Dowager He chose to back down.
She didn’t really concede but rather was just being cautious.
Or maybe she didn’t care at all, rely viewing Lady Hu as a minor nuisance.
Empress Dowager He is definitely not a pitiful old woman who had her son taken by a bad wet nurse; she’s the Regent Empress Dowager, wielding great power with the world in her grasp.
Although now Empress Dowager He has returned power to the Emperor and stepped back from the previous dynasty.
But Empress Dowager He hasn’t completely disappeared; she established the Bowen Academy and uses it as an opportunity to gradually infiltrate the court.
When Zheng Nianer was on her estate, she closely followed the developnts in the Capital.
She may not have political insight, but she’s read a lot of online ti-travel novels.
So high-quality court intrigue novels vividly describe intricate power struggles.
Even if Zheng Nianer hasn’t fully comprehended their essence, she has gained so insights.
