The Two Hundred and Eighty Pound Fat Girl and Her Five Husbands C.332: Return to the System

"I must curse myself with the Curse Split-Body Technique and become Xi Luo's system again to restrain that demoniac's movements.

However, my split self can only restrain him until the day my Eldest Sister comes of age. Once she becomes an adult, that cursed demoniac will appear again to harm her."

"Xi Luo, your body has already reached its limit. If you split yourself into two, aren't you truly leaving no hope for your own life?"

"There's no other choice, Gu Shan. That damned demoniac is lurking within my Eldest Sister's soul. He strikes swiftly each time, always catching us off guard.

I will meet my demise sooner or later, but even if it means suffering, I must ensure my Eldest Sister lives safely until adulthood. At the very least, I want her to regain the memories of this life.

For this, I need your help. After my Eldest Sister comes of age, tell her the truth.

Let her kill that system, and escape from this cycle of rebirth."

After speaking, Xi Luo used his sharp nails to scratch open his forehead, lowering his head to touch foreheads with the sleeping Lin Zaozao.

In Gu Shan's shocked gaze, Xi Luo's face grew paler and paler, with beads of sweat constantly dripping down his forehead.

When Xi Luo's clothes were drenched in sweat, to Gu Shan's astonishment, Xi Luo's single body split into two parts.

One part was a real person, while the other became a ghostly apparition.

That apparition nodded at Gu Shan before disappearing into Lin Zaozao's forehead.

Xi Luo's soul could barely maintain human form, yet he was still desperately trying to save Lin Zaozao.

This Xi Luo was risking his life to rescue Lin Zaozao.

No wonder he said that his split self could only last until Lin Zaozao came of age.

Meanwhile, the sleeping Lin Zaozao remained oblivious to everything happening.

Deep within her mind, Xi Luo, dressed in white priestly robes, appeared before the demoniac, whose eyes filled with terror.

"Xi Luo, you have a death wish. We've been entangled for so many lifetimes, and my power is about to be exhausted.

And you still dare use the Curse Split-Body Technique to restrain me.

Do you really not want to live? Aren't you supposed to love your Eldest Sister the most? Yet now, you're not leaving yourself any way out?"

Facing the demoniac's bitter questioning, Xi Luo calmly looked at the red-robed youth before him.

He was a fallen celestial!

If he had not fallen, this red-robed youth would have been a true deity protecting a realm.

Unfortunately, he was now a demoniac covered in demonic energy, only able to survive by leeching off the luck of a blessed child. 𝑓𝓻ℯ𝑒𝑤𝘦𝑏𝑛ℴ𝓋ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝓸𝓂

"We've fought for so many years. Can you tell me your name?"

Xi Luo calmly asked.

"Wan Jie! My name is Wan Jie!"

The red-robed youth replied after some thought.

"How did you become a demoniac?"

"For humans to ascend to celestial beings, they must journey through ten thousand small worlds and experience ten thousand tribulations.

I failed, and was demoted by The Way of Heaven to become a system that experiences ten thousand tribulations.

Those punished by The Way of Heaven are called demoniacs.

I was unwilling to accept it. I put in so much effort, only to be denied everything because of a single tribulation I couldn't pass.

So I took advantage of my position and forcibly separated two small worlds. One is this world.

The other is your Eldest Sister's next life. I originally planned to use the two souls from different worlds to steal your Eldest Sister's luck, allowing me to start over and regain the chance to become a celestial being.

But I didn't expect that in this same world, besides your luck-blessed Eldest Sister, there was also you.

Xi Luo, you're not a blessed child, yet you've been able to entangle me for so many years.

It's been so long, our struggles repeated lifetime after lifetime.

I harmed your Eldest Sister, you risked your life to harm me, slowly draining the demonic energy from my body.

Until now, you're about to drag me to my demise."

The red-robed youth laughed bitterly.

"You deserved it! The Way of Heaven was unjust to you, but you shouldn't have jeopardized my Eldest Sister's life to make up for your mistakes.

In our struggles lifetime after lifetime, how many people have you killed in these two small worlds? Can you even count?"

"Xi Luo, these two small worlds, or rather, they're merely a book being read by someone else.

The people in the book are just paper characters briefly mentioned. They died, so what's there to be so angry about?"

"Nonsense! Wan Jie, even at this point, you're still making excuses for the mistakes you've made.

Even if these two worlds are just a book you speak of, the people living in them have flesh and blood, they laugh and cry, they have the seven emotions and six desires.

They are living, breathing humans, not the paper characters you claim. My Eldest Sister is not, I am not, Gu Shan and the others are not, and those innocent civilians who died by your hand are not."

"Xi Luo, what use is your anger? You can't kill me now, you can only restrain me with your broken body.

With your current battered state, you can only hold me back for a dozen years at most. When the time comes, you'll disappear completely from this realm.

Once you're dead, no one will be left to protect your beloved sister. I'll claim her luck for sure."

After speaking, the originally fair and handsome face of Wan Jie became covered in blackened lines, making him look terrifying.

"Indeed, I'll die in a dozen years. But you won't fare much better. At the very least, with your extremely weakened body, you'll no longer be able to control those two souls from different worlds."

Hearing Xi Luo's words, the red-robed youth burst into frenzied laughter.

"Xi Luo, after all these years, how have you not grown a single brain cell? It was never my power that controlled those two souls from different worlds, but their own greed.

They desired power, wealth, eternal life, to possess countless beautiful men.

All those desires had already bewitched them, making them lose their way home. You'll see!

Even in this final life, they would still choose to slowly immerse themselves in endless desires as before.

"Obey my words, help me seize your Eldest Sister's destiny, so that I can rid myself of the demoniac's status and have a chance to regain the qualifications of an immortal."

Hearing the demoniac's manic laughter, Xi Luo's eyes held only endless disdain.

This life was different from before.

Because Gu Shan, as a nightmare, would help his Eldest Sister escape that sacrificial fate.

Amidst the red-robed youth's insane laughter, Xi Luo slowly raised his hand.

In an instant, an invisible wall confined that red-robed youth—Wan Jie, inside.

"Xi Luo, you can only trap me for a dozen years. Once your Eldest Sister comes of age, and you disappear, I will still use those two souls from other realms to seize her destiny.

Hahaha...

Everything you've done will be in vain. After all these years, the ultimate victor can only be me!"

Ignoring the demoniac Wan Jie's frenzied laughter, as Xi Luo turned away, his body slowly transformed into a small furball, calling out to Lin Zaozao's mind in a mechanical voice.

[Host, little host, wake up quickly, there's a mission!]
