Chapter 191 People’s hearts are unpredictable
The little bean-shaped creature that the system had transformed into had already received instructions from the supreme intelligence.
"Are you really going to do this? Isn't this against the rules?" The little white bean sprouted hands and feet, and now it looked rather cute.
The supreme intelligence appeared in mid-air as a golden ray of light, shimmering: "This is a very interesting research topic, so be sure to do it."
"Yes, sir!" The system obeyed the command.
The little system didn't know why the Supreme Intelligence had set its sights on Lu He, or what was so special about this guy that was worth studying.
"Go and make the arrangements; start the next round of testing as soon as possible!"
"What about the scrolls here?"
"Find a way to end this. I've expanded your permissions. In future tests, I'll grant you even more permissions to handle unexpected situations. Don't misuse them." The golden light flashed and then went out, indicating that the person had left.
During this time, Lu He was locked in a fierce battle with Qing Yu at Illusion Moon Lake. Just as the Supreme Wisdom departed, she also took Qing Yu's inner core.
He was still pondering whether he should hurry back to the underground spiritual veins of Longevity Mountain to absorb the inner core and complete the task of obtaining the Phoenix Power and ruling the Spirit Beast Mountain.
With a "ding," a voice that only Lu He could hear rang out: "System notification: You have completed Task One. Task Two is about to be completed..."
"Huh?" Lu He paused for a moment after hearing the prompt: "Eh?"
Before they could even react and utter a question, they were teleported away.
At Illusion Moon Lake, only Gongzhan and Yunyi, who had returned after retrieving the Fire Feather, remained, staring at each other in bewilderment.
Gongzhan was silent for two seconds before he came to his senses: "No way! Qinwu! You're just leaving like this? Leaving me with all this mess?" He couldn't help but shout at the sky: "You're not being fair!"
Seeing Lu He disappear, Qingyu, who was kneeling on the ground, knew that she had no hope of turning the tables and could no longer regain her original power.
She gritted her teeth silently in her heart, "Xiao He, you lied to me this time, so consider this my repayment. From now on, we owe each other nothing. If we meet again in the future, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
In the milky white space, Lu He was still in a daze.
The system's little bean sprout jumped in front of her, stretched out its tiny hand and waved in front of her eyes: "Hello? Lu He? Wake up!"
"Huh?" Coming back to her senses, looking at the familiar space, Lu He knew she was completely safe. She looked left and right, scratching her head in confusion.
"Why did I suddenly finish the mission? Wait, I clearly haven't finished it yet..."
"Uh, of course you did. Didn't you obtain supreme power? That means you've accomplished it." The system stammered, changing the subject.
"At most, I'll only complete the first mission, right? What about the second one? I haven't even gone back to Spirit Beast Mountain yet!" Lu He gestured, trying to imply that he hadn't even absorbed Qingyu's inner core.
The little boy shrugged, spread his hands, and pretended to be calm: "Oh, that means it's done, isn't it? Once you absorb her inner core, you can open it with the power of antiquity. What's the suspense..." He forced a lie.
"No, why haven't you gone this far before? This time, you're just assuming I've done my job if you can finish it?" Lu He stared at the little boy with a suspicious look on his face.
The system, looking guilty, turned its face away: "Anyway, you've already finished it, it's not a bad thing, why are you asking so many questions?"
Although she still felt something was off, since the outcome wouldn't harm Lu He, she stopped digging into the reasons.
Fearing she might press for more questions, the system quickly dismissed her, saying, "You'd better get ready to go and read a comic book."
"Huh? So urgent? Don't we need to check the list or something?"
"Go!" Before Lu He could finish his question, the system released a force that threw him into a spacetime vortex.
Lu He fainted as soon as everything went black, and before he could even curse the system, he didn't have time to say a single word.
When she regained consciousness, there was a girl supporting her from behind, and three other girls surrounding her.
"Boss, what's wrong?"
"Big Sister, are you alright?"
The concerned greetings left Lu He at a loss. How did she suddenly fall into such a tender embrace?
As the blurry vision cleared, upon closer inspection, the girls were wearing matching school uniforms and appeared to be students.
She held her head, steadied herself, and looked around: "Where is this... Huh?" This was the women's restroom. In front of them, a long-haired girl was being held down by two other girls and forced to kneel on the ground.
What kind of scene is this? Lu He was stunned. She looked up with a puzzled expression, as if questioning the system why it hadn't transferred her memories yet.
The system stammered for a moment before apologizing, "Sorry, I don't have any character memories this time. Basically, you're the villainous female supporting character who bullies the female lead, kind of a school bully..."
No memory? Then who am I? What's my name in this comic?
"You...you...you hold on...I'll go check what's going on," the system's voice betrayed its guilt.
"You better not talk nonsense!" Lu He couldn't hold back his anger and pointed at the bathroom ceiling to curse.
The other girls were stunned.
"Boss... what's wrong?" One of her close followers asked her tentatively.
"Uh, no, no." Lu He then realized her lapse in composure: "I am, I..."
None of them called her by name, so she couldn't confirm her identity. Oh well, she'd just have to play it by ear and see how things unfolded.
"Boss, what should we do with this guy..." The girl pointed at the struggling girl who was being held down on the bathroom floor, wanting to ask Lu He what to do, just as the class bell rang.
"That was just in time," Lu He thought with a sigh of relief. "Never mind her for now, let's go to class..."
"Huh?" Several girls exclaimed in surprise at the same time, "Boss, you actually have to go to class?"
Huh? Why is this character a delinquent girl? Does she skip class? This is a bad example... Oh right, I'm the villain, Lu He thought to herself.
"You go first, hurry up!" she pretended to be angry and shooed them away from the restroom.
Sure enough, the girls all left in a flash.
The girl sitting on the ground was trembling, and tears were streaming down her face.
Lu He reached out to help her up, but she instinctively curled up and avoided him.
"Class is about to start, get up first?" His gaze swept over the girl's bare arm, which had many burn marks on it.
Did "I" do all of this? Isn't this bullying?
Lu He was shocked; she hadn't expected to injure someone so severely. It was too much. She gritted her teeth.
"Are you... are you alright?" Lu He didn't know how to talk to her. "Your injury..."
"Please, I won't do it again, I'll never do it again, please stop hitting me." The girl frantically slapped away the outstretched hand, desperately begging for mercy.
Left with no other choice, Lu He took two steps back: "Okay, I won't come any closer to you, don't be afraid..." Perhaps leaving the restroom now was the most effective way to help her: "I... I have to go to class, you go by yourself..."
As Lu He was walking out of the bathroom, someone suddenly burst in and shoved her aside, causing her arm to hit the sink: "Ouch... Who is it..."
She looked up and saw a girl with a delicate, leading lady-like face brush past her, wearing the same style of school uniform.
This must be the female lead, right?
Lu He guessed that the person on the ground was probably a friend of the female lead.
The female lead helped the trembling girl up and gently wiped away her tears: "Rongrong, are you alright? Are you okay? Did they bully you again?"
To everyone's surprise, the girl pushed the female lead away forcefully. Unlike the timid and trembling lamb from before, she changed her tune and lashed out at the female lead: "Who wants you pretending to be all sympathetic! Get out of my way!"
