Perhaps it was because Xi Luo looked too much like her younger brother Lin Luoluo that Lin Zaozao's affection for him went up sharply as soon as she saw him.
"Sister, let's go."
"Okay, let's go in now."
Awkwardly pulling her hand back, Lin Zaozao smiled at Xi Luo before turning around and pushing against the tightly closed palace gate.
She mischievously gave it a push, but it didn't open.
She pushed again, but it still didn't open. It seed soone had locked the door from the inside.
"Xi Luo, be a good boy and stand aside. Sister needs to ram the door."
She reached out to push Xi Luo aside, but her hand went right through his waist.
Oh dear! She had forgotten again that Xi Luo was just a virtual character created by the System.
To cover her embarrassnt, Lin Zaozao stepped back a couple of paces and ramd against the palace gate with all her might.
But when her body bounced off the gate, it remained tightly shut without even a crack.
"Damn! I put quite a bit of force into that, but I still can't break this door open."
Lin Zaozao rubbed her slightly sore arm from ramming the door and pushed against the huge crimson gate.
When her hand touched the door, she clearly felt the tallic temperature transmitted to her brain.
This gate was made of tal. But to avoid making it look out of place, a layer of crimson paint had been applied on the outer surface.
What to do now? Even if she ramd herself into a at pancake against this tal gate, she would never be able to break through.
"Xi Luo, what should we do? I can't break down this gate. If I can't get through, how can I kill the Female Emperor of Fengshuo Country?"
"Sister, why don't you set a fire outside the palace and burn it down, forcing the Female Emperor to co out?"
"Burn it? With what? There's nothing here except rubble. Do you expect to turn into the legendary Nezha and shoot so divine fire at the tal gate to lt it?"
"Um, well..."
Xi Luo stared at the gate, stumped for a mont.
He did have a way to open it, but everything in the System required an exchange.
But what could he ask his elder sister to exchange?
As Xi Luo frowned worriedly at the gate, Lin Zaozao hiked up her dress and started climbing up towards a small window above the door.
"Sister, where are you going?" Xi Luo's virtual body floated up to get a better view of the small window above the gate.
That tiny window was probably ant for ventilation, so it wasn't very big. With Lin Zaozao's current figure, there was no way she could squeeze through.
[System, I want to redeem three vials of level 4 beauty essence!]
Lin Zaozao clung to the window fra, frantically calling out to the System in her mind.
"Sister, I'm right here..."
Lin Zaozao turned to see Xi Luo floating beside her like a ghost, his feet dangling. She almost lost her grip on the windowsill at the sight of his pretty boy looks that the damn System had given him, making her too embarrassed to even scold properly.
"Xi Luo? System?"
"Sister, host, I'm here."
Xi Luo obediently nodded at Lin Zaozao.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Zaozao said to the adorably obedient Xi Luo, "Xi Luo, redeem three vials of level 4 beauty essence for . One vial can make lose 8 pounds, so three vials will shed 24 pounds. Once I'm thin enough, I'll definitely be able to squeeze through this hole."
"But sister, losing that much weight all at once will severely damage your body."
"It'll be fine, it's just so at. I'll gain it back after eating a few more als. Xi Luo, stop wasting ti and quickly redeem the beauty essence for . I need to get through here."
Seeing the narrow window, Xi Luo hesitated for a mont before nodding agreent.
It was best to avoid using things from the System if possible. Using too much had no benefits.
But in this urgent situation, they had to resort to extre asures.
After Lin Zaozao drank the three vials of level 4 beauty essence, her body rapidly beca thinner before their eyes.
Though she didn't look in a mirror, just glancing at her bony wrists told Lin Zaozao she must look ghastly thin.
Damn, being too fat was frustrating.
But being this scrawny was even worse!
This frail body could probably get blown away by a strong wind. Even if she managed to squeeze through, could her petite fra overpower the Female Emperor in this state?
It would be disastrous if the Female Emperor ended up killing her instead.
Though inwardly grumbling, Lin Zaozao didn't slow her efforts to climb through the hole. Fortunately, her drastic weight loss allowed her to squeeze through the small ventilation opening.
When Lin Zaozao's feet landed on the other side, they splashed down into a pool of blood. Her brows furrowed deeply at the sight and stench of so much blood.
What in the world was this? No wonder she had slled such an overpowering bloody stench from outside.
Swallowing her nausea and fear, Lin Zaozao waded through the blood to pass through the screen, only to gag again at what she saw.
Good lord! Was this wretched Female Emperor really a dinsional traveler?
If she truly was, how could she have done sothing so vile?
As far as Lin Zaozao's eyes could see, there was an enormous pool of blood. The pungent, coppery stench confird that the sea of red liquid was undoubtedly real blood, not tomato sauce.
And floating in the blood pool was a huge lump—a corpse?
Just as Lin Zaozao stared at the floating mass, fighting not to vomit, the supposed corpse opened its eyes.
When Lin Zaozao t that familiar gaze, she realized in horror that the "corpse" was none other than the Female Emperor she had been searching for.
What was going on?
Sure, back in Border City she had used the System to make the Female Emperor gain hundreds of pounds. But that was months ago—even if the weight didn't drop, there was no way she should have beco this grotesquely obese!
Just as Lin Zaozao was frowning and scrutinizing the Female Emperor of Fengshuo Country, who remained silent, the voluptuous Female Emperor floating on the surface of the blood spoke first.
She did not look directly at Lin Zaozao, but instead cast her gaze upon Xi Luo behind her.
When the Female Emperor's gaze t Xi Luo's golden eyes, she was so shocked that her mouth opened and closed repeatedly.
She opened her mouth many tis, but could not utter a single word.
So in this awkward atmosphere, Lin Zaozao spoke first.
"Little... little aunt? My dear little aunt? What happened to your breasts and butt? How did they beco XXXXXXXXXL size?"
"Mingzhu, we've co this far, you don't need to pretend anymore."
The Female Emperor dragged her body, as round as a ball, and slowly crawled towards the edge of the blood pool.
But she was too fat. Even after crawling for a long ti, she couldn't crawl out of it. Panting from exhaustion, she could only lean her bloated body against the side of the blood pool.
"Female Emperor, are you really a dinsional traveler?"
"That's right."
"Were you a fetus transmigrator?"
"I guess so!"
"Do I have a grudge against you?"
"Yes, a deep hatred!"
"What deep hatred is there between you and , or between you and the Female Emperor of Canglan Country, that is so serious that it would drive you to commit such an unforgivable act?"
Hearing Lin Zaozao's indignant voice, the Female Emperor's swollen face couldn't help but break into a smile.
Her muddy yellow eyes stared fixedly at Lin Zaozao, those snake-like eyes seed as if they wanted to bite Lin Zaozao to death.
"Mingzhu?"
The Female Emperor said softly.
"What is it?"
"Do you really think you are Mingzhu now? Or Lin Zaozao?"
"What do you an?"
Lin Zaozao asked in confusion.
"Two lifetis, we've been entangled for two lifetis. I can't tell if I'm a dinsional traveler nad Zhao Xue, or the princess Qian Xue from my previous life, or the current Female Emperor of Fengshuo Country."
"Female Emperor, we knew each other in our previous life. Can you tell what hatred existed between you, , and the Female Emperor of Canglan Country in the past that would drive you to take so many lives for revenge against ?"
"Ha, hahaha..."
Upon hearing Lin Zaozao's words, the Female Emperor couldn't help but burst into laughter. She started with a hearty laugh, but ended up laughing so hard that her eyes were filled with blood.
At this mont, what was the difference between her and a true demon?
"Mingzhu, if I and the Female Emperor of Canglan Country could say it, we would have said it long ago. We wouldn't have waited until now.
After all, as long as we drive you insane, or directly kill you, it would be all benefits and no harm for and the Female Emperor of Canglan Country.
Did you know, we cannot speak of our previous life's events. Or rather, we are afraid to speak of our previous life's events.
Otherwise, when you and I t in Border City, I would have told you everything about our previous life.
Mingzhu, why do you think I dared not tell you that we knew each other in our previous life, or even make an attempt on your life, when we t in Border City?"
"Because Brother Han Ye was there at the ti. As long as he was present, you naturally wouldn't dare harm casually."
"Hahaha... Han Ye! That damned bastard, he was supposed to be my man.
But because of you, he let and the Female Emperor of Canglan Country end up in that situation.
Mingzhu, you are just a self-righteous bitch. Why did you have to XXXXXXXX"
Watching the Female Emperor's opening and closing mouth, Lin Zaozao's frown deepened.
She now seed like the wizard who had automatically muted her when telling Lin Zaozao sothing.
But here, apart from her and the Female Emperor, there was only Xi Luo, or the System, constantly floating by her side.
Could it be that the one who muted the Female Emperor's voice was the System?
Probably realizing that she simply couldn't speak, or that even if she did, Lin Zaozao wouldn't be able to hear her.
The enraged Female Emperor promptly closed her mouth. She took a long breath and looked at Lin Zaozao, saying:
"Mingzhu, don't you have your own sense of morality? Don't you always love to do good deeds for others? You're so good to everyone else, so why are you so cruel to !"
"I'm cruel to you? Dear little auntie, what have I done to you? All this ti, hasn't it been you who has done unforgivable things to ?"
Faced with Lin Zaozao's bewildered gaze, the Female Emperor soaking in the blood pool couldn't help but laugh.
She looked at Lin Zaozao, then at Xi Luo, who was still hovering behind her. Closing her eyes, she murmured:
