Chapter 130: The System Reveals Itself
At this moment, the figure that had reappeared, although bearing Qi Hao’s appearance,
the aura and soul fluctuations on his body were completely different from before, as if he had already become another person entirely.
Hearing Lu Xueqi’s questioning voice, Qi Hao let out a sinister laugh and said, “Do you think I am still Qi Hao?”
Lu Xueqi was slightly stunned, then honestly shook her head and said, “I feel that you are no longer Qi Hao.”
Qi Hao did not refute her, merely saying in a deep voice, “If you say I’m not, then I’m not. That useless trash became so pathetic after being bound by me—since he lived such a failure of a life, dying is no great loss.”
A trace of shock instantly surged in Lu Xueqi’s heart, and she exclaimed, “You’re actually the system that bound Qi Hao!”
Hearing this, Qi Hao paused slightly, then asked in astonishment, “You actually know about systems? Who are you? Could it be that, like this idiot Qi Hao, you also think you’re some so-called transmigrator?”
As he spoke, Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu below also recovered and, upon hearing this exchange, were both surprised.
Zhang Xiaofan did not understand what “transmigrator” meant, but Lin Jingyu knew very well.
He cast a subtle gaze toward Qi Hao and Lu Xueqi, wanting to know whether Lu Xueqi was truly a transmigrator.
Lu Xueqi shook her head and said, “I’m not some transmigrator.”
Qi Hao did not believe her and said coldly, “Is that so? In that case, let this lord properly investigate you!”
As soon as his words fell, a strange fluctuation rippled from Qi Hao’s body, instantly sweeping across Lu Xueqi’s form, as though it intended to probe her soul and flesh.
However, at the instant this strange force touched Lu Xueqi’s body, a faint white light suddenly burst forth from her, enveloping her within it.
When the strange black light emitted by Qi Hao met the white light, it immediately produced a dull “sizzling” sound, as if it had encountered a natural enemy.
Seeing this, Qi Hao exclaimed in shock, “I didn’t expect you to have such an opportunity—bound to a chat group!”
Lu Xueqi was also somewhat surprised and said, “You’re quite capable yourself, to actually see that I’m bound to chat group.”
Qi Hao laughed eerily and said, “Chat groups may be peculiar, but they’re also one of the classifications of our systems. However, they are not of the same faction as us, and you are not the master of that chat group either.”
Lu Xueqi nodded in acknowledgment.
“Correct.”
Hearing their conversation, Lin Jingyu’s eyes lit up.
He finally understood the origin of the changes in Lu Xueqi.
So she was not a transmigrator, but rather a native who had obtained the opportunity of a chat group.
After thinking this through, he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Lu Xueqi looked at Qi Hao and asked, “Did you seize Qi Hao’s body?”
Qi Hao sneered.
“Seize his body? No, no, no.Qi Hao is still the same Qi Hao. At first, I merely refined his soul and implanted new memories, making him think he had transmigrated. And now, I directly erased his will and occupied this body.”
After hearing this, Lu Xueqi felt a chill run through her entire body.
She asked in disbelief, “Aren’t systems like you supposed to help transmigrators rise and grow stronger? Why would you do something so evil?”
Qi Hao burst into sinister laughter.
“That’s just your understanding. Why would we systems do thankless work? Most of the time, we simply treat transmigrators as pigs to be fattened. Once they’re fat enough, we devour them. This Qi Hao was far too useless. After so long, he still couldn’t grow, so I could only harvest him in advance.”
“All right, you’ve learned everything you wanted to know. Now you can die!”
As he spoke, the strange black light around Qi Hao continued to spread, forming layer upon layer of light wheels behind him.
Terrifying might pierced through the void, and energy instantly flooded the surroundings, pressing down toward Lu Xueqi.
Feeling this power, Lu Xueqi’s expression also turned solemn.
Above, Lu Xueqi listened to the system’s words, her expression unchanged.
But Lin Jingyu, lying below, was utterly horrified.
He had never imagined that in the eyes of systems, transmigrators like them were merely “pigs” waiting to be fattened.
This made him involuntarily begin to question the system within his own body.
Was he also being raised like livestock, destined to be harvested once fattened?
At this thought, Lin Jingyu felt a chill down his spine, shuddering involuntarily.
As for Zhang Xiaofan, he was completely baffled by the exchange above between Lu Xueqi and Qi Hao, utterly unable to understand what this “system” they spoke of even was.
Just as Zhang Xiaofan was confused, Lu Xueqi looked at the system charging toward her with killing intent, her eyes instantly turning sharp.
She shouted coldly, “If you want to kill me, you’d better see whether you have the ability!”
Before her words even fell, her figure flashed as she took the initiative to charge forward.
In an instant, two terrifying auras collided violently, and an overwhelming force erupted.
With a thunderous “boom,” Qi Hao and Lu Xueqi both halted, then were forced backward, retreating several steps before stabilizing themselves.
Seeing this scene, Lu Xueqi secretly let out a breath of relief.
Although the Qi Hao before her was powerful, she was not without the ability to fight him.
On the other hand, Qi Hao, parasitized by the system, wore a gloomy expression.
In his eyes, Lu Xueqi should have been nothing more than an ant, not worth mentioning.
Yet now she could actually exchange several moves with him—this was undoubtedly a provocation to the system.
He snorted coldly.
“Hmph, you do have some skill. Your battle strength far exceeds this world’s Supreme Purity Realm. But so what? Before this system, all struggle is useless, and this system can even wield divine power!”
Hearing this, Lu Xueqi felt some concern in her heart, but her face showed no fear at all.
“So what if you can use divine power? I, Lu Xueqi, am not afraid!”
With that, she slashed out with her sword.
A dark azure sword beam tore through the air, streaking straight toward the system.
Seeing this, the system sneered disdainfully.
“You think you can defeat me with this? Delusional!”
Qi Hao swept his right hand, and a vast force burst forth, instantly shattering Lu Xueqi’s sword beam……
However, the destructive power contained within the sword beam still made him suffer.
His sleeve was blown apart by the backlash, and even the supposedly indestructible scales on his arm seeped with traces of blood, leaving wounds.
After exchanging several moves with Qi Hao, Lu Xueqi had already roughly discerned his level of cultivation.
Although Qi Hao was powerful, she could still handle him.
If she were to unleash several of the great killing techniques she had comprehended, it would be enough to annihilate him outright.
Qi Hao, on the other hand, had failed to take down Lu Xueqi after several moves, his expression growing increasingly ugly.
He secretly cursed the original Qi Hao for being useless.
After binding this body for over a year, Qi Hao had neither brought him any fortune power nor accumulated origin power, causing his origin to show no improvement after transmigrating here, making it difficult to unleash much might.
Even worse, Qi Hao was utterly incompetent and had consumed quite a bit of the origin he had previously accumulated.
Seeing that he could not secure victory in a short time, Qi Hao changed his strategy.
When he and Lu Xueqi separated again and faced each other, he spoke, “Lu Xueqi, how about we make a deal?”
Lu Xueqi grew interested.
“What deal? Let’s hear it.”
Qi Hao immediately said, “You become my host. As long as we cooperate, your strength will increase faster, and I can obtain what I want. How about it?”
Lu Xueqi shook her head without hesitation and refused.
“Cooperate with you? I wouldn’t dare. I don’t want to end up like Qi Hao one day, directly devoured by you. Besides, today I will definitely kill you. Don’t waste your effort.”
As she spoke, lightning flashed all over her body, and All-Heavens Divine Thunder manifested once more.
Terrifying golden lightning illuminated the entire Dead Spirit Abyss.
Seeing this, the system was furious, never expecting this “ant” to be so disrespectful.
Qi Hao said coldly, “What a pity. Since you refuse this system, then go die!”
As his words fell, an illusory light burst forth from his body, and in an instant, both he and Lu Xueqi vanished from the Dead Spirit Abyss.
This sudden change left Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu, who were watching nearby, stunned.
The two hurriedly stood up and began searching all around.
Lin Jingyu was curious about who would win this battle, but in his heart, he hoped even more that Lu Xueqi would prevail.
Although Lu Xueqi was bound to a chat group and knew about transmigrators, he had gotten along fairly well with her during this period, and naturally did not wish for anything to happen to her.
As for Qi Hao, who had been taken over by the system, Lin Jingyu only wished for him to be reduced to ashes as soon as possible.
After all, the Qi Hao controlled by the system was far too terrifying—he did not want to be wiped out by him.
Elsewhere, at the instant Lu Xueqi was enveloped by white light, she tried to escape but was a step too slow.
Her figure vanished, and when she opened her eyes again, she found herself in a boundless void.
She saw Qi Hao seated upon a gigantic throne, gazing at her coldly.
Lu Xueqi said sharply, “I didn’t expect you to have such a method, actually dragging me into an illusion!”
Qi Hao sneered in response, “You say this is an illusion? Why don’t you personally verify it?”
