The young man’s hopeful eyes became lifeless and he revealed a bitter smile. Ever since he could remember things, he had always been an item to be sold everywhere by his parents. Every time he ran away, they would catch him and continue on to sell him to the next buyer.
They would be counting money, while he would have to endure the beating and scolding.
It was only because they were related by blood that he did not oppose them. This kind of life...when will it end?
The man grumbled and cursed as he locked the door, they were going to go eat now.
The scent of the food floated over and the young man’s stomach growled. He had already been starved for three days, that family’s master completely treated him like an animal.
A scent floated over with the cold air, it did not belong to this poor and brutal place. He looked over with his blurred vision, he seemed to make out the figure of a lady wearing white standing in front of him.
“This child….” The scent of blood that Ling Qingxuan had smelled came from this young man who was curled up into a ball. She sized up the young man, inferior spiritual bones, there is no savior in his life, will suffer a lot.
[Triggered hidden mission: Gain the favorable impression of the villain Feng Jue.]
What is a favorable impression?
[It’s just the good opinion he will have of you, once it reaches one hundred the mission will be completed, currently Feng Jue’s favorable impression of host is at 10.]
Ling Qingxuan continued to size him up.
Feng Jue? This name sounded a bit familiar, wasn’t it the villain that worked with that Qi Yuan lady to kill Ling Qingxuan in the end?
All she did was follow the scent of blood and she has already came across one of her enemies, Ling Qingxuan touched her sword.
Let’s just kill him.
[Host Host, CALM DOWN! Our hidden mission is to gain a favorable impression. You need to save him, if you kill him then the mission will fail, and if you don’t increase the favorable impression now, in a few days he will be saved by Qi Yuan, and will fall in love with Qi Yuan.]
Just because he fell in love with Qi Yuan, he would commit crimes for her?
En, this child’s eyesight sucks.
**En is 嗯 which is like a sound of affirmation.**
Ling Qingxuan got a headache from all the fuss ZZ was making. She just won't to kill him then, she turned to leave, but then her pure white sleeve was pulled on, leaving the area dirtied.
“Save - save me….” the young man’s breathing was very weak, the sound of his voice was so small it could barely be heard.
Ling Qingxuan saw the will to survive in his eyes, he wanted to keep living.
[Calm down, right now you can’t kill him, all you have to do is wait till you complete the mission then kill him.]
[Host, he is about to starve to death.] ZZ reminded, [injured too.]
Ling Qingxuan felt around her robe, she had already cultivated to the point of not needing to eat, she did not bring any food.
She then reached into her storage ring which she kept on her at all times and brought out a bunch of medicine and placed all of them in front of Feng Jue, “Pick.”
The voice of this body sounded very much like her original voice, it was very clear and cool.
However Feng Jue did not respond.
[Host! How can he choose if he has already fainted, I'm pleading with you to feed him.]
As the cultivation world’s top senior, Ling Qingxuan had to feed someone medicine for the first time in the last few thousand years. She reached out to pinch Feng Jue’s cheeks, and stuffed different types of medicine into his mouth.
ZZ was a bit worried, is the Host trying to use a different method to kill the big villain?
The thatched cottage was quiet. By the time Feng Jue woke up it was already night time, he hugged himself and noticed that all his injuries had healed, this... that young lady saved him?
**Not a typo, he referred to LQX as 姑娘 (guniang meaning young lady) instead of 女子 (nuzi meaning woman), I think he sees LQX as someone the same age or younger than him.. or something... probably....**
[Host, this won’t do, you need to wait for him to wake up, so he knows you were the one that saved him, that way you can get a favorable impression.]
ZZ was trying hard to impart its teaching. Initially, it was worried, but it turns out that it did not need to worry about this host. Who would have expected that as things were just starting, she would give it such a big surprise!
[Feng Jue favorability + 20]
This is a bit different from what it expected!
** I'm using "it" to refer to the system because in the raw the author uses 它 which is usually used to refer to animals or items.... but they all sound the same as 他/她 which refers to he and she as in humans. Let me know if you guys want me to use he/him or her/she for the system.... there hasn't been a gender specified for the system.. so I chose "it" by default.**
