The Two Hundred and Eighty Pound Fat Girl and Her Five Husbands C.346: Blood Pool

Lin Zaozao had always known about that Sacrificial Drawing that could open space and time.

It required sacrificing the lives of those with the strongest fate in this world to open the gates of space and time.

But the people with the strongest fate in this world were right by her side - all her closest friends and family. How could she possibly sacrifice their lives to return home?

These loved ones she protected with her life - how, how could they be treated as sacrificial offerings by others?

Lin Zaozao opened and closed her mouth. She was in agony, grief-stricken, heartbroken to the point of death. Yet not a sound could escape her lips.

Her mouth opened and closed several times, but she could only sit helplessly in the Sacrificial Drawing formed by corpses.

"Zhuzhu..."

"Zaozao..."

"Elder Sister..."

Hearing these faint voices, Lin Zaozao quickly turned her head to see Han Ye, Han Xibei, and Xi Luo lying in pools of blood.

They weren't dead yet!

Lin Zaozao crawled over to Han Ye, Han Xibei, and Xi Luo, using what little strength she had left to tightly grasp their hands.

She dared not let go, fearing that if she did, her remaining family would die.

"Zhuzhu, I'm sorry I couldn't protect you," said Han Ye, lying in the pool of blood. He wanted to raise his hand, but severely wounded as he was, he couldn't lift it at all.

He saw the bloody tears at the corners of Lin Zaozao's eyes. Though in pain, he was helpless to do anything.

"Zaozao, it was a man in red clothes. He took Ye Hui and Qian Xue and vanished into thin air."

"Little Xibei, don't die. Wait for me, my medical skills are good, I can save you. Really, I beg you. I really can save you."

"Don't... don't try to save me. Zaozao, I like you."

Lin Zaozao reached out to wipe the blood that kept flowing from Han Xibei's mouth. She wanted to speak, but couldn't utter a single word.

"Elder Sister!"

"Luo Luo, I'm here! Luo Luo..."

Lin Zaozao crawled over to Xi Luo's side. Seeing his body covered in blood, her eyes instantly filled with bloody tears. 𝘧𝘳ℯ𝓮𝘸𝓮𝑏𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"I'm... I'm sorry... you had to suffer. I... I just realized, he is a demo..."

Lin Zaozao watched as the hand slipped from her palm. In her eyes, only deathly stillness remained.

The people she had protected with her life were all dead...

Killed by that damned System.

Lin Zaozao put Xi Luo down and struggled to her feet. She turned to look at Gu Shan, who had been by her side the whole time. Her eyes were filled with deadly stillness...

"Zaozao..."

The last image was of Gu Shan rushing towards her. The suffocating pain made Lin Zaozao feel like a fish about to drown.

To stay alive, she could only gasp for air in big gulps.

"How was it? Did you see the ending of your previous life? What do you think?"

Hearing the familiar voice beside her, Lin Zaozao slowly turned her head to look at the red-clad youth before her.

The hatred in her eyes was almost palpable.

"Don't look at me like that. Lin Zaozao, no matter how much you hate me, you can't do anything to me.

I showed you what would happen in your previous life because I wanted to warn you to obediently listen to me and cooperate in sacrificing yourself.

If you dare to team up with that damn nightmare and Xi Luo to cause me trouble again, I'll kill them right now."

Lin Zaozao stared at the red-clad youth standing before her. She gazed at him for a long while before finally speaking slowly.

"Gu Shan said you're not really a System. At most, you're just a Fallen Immortal, a demoniac who has entered the path of evil, isn't that right?"

Faced with Lin Zaozao's questioning gaze, the red-clad youth was taken aback.

The next moment, he raised his hand to slap Lin Zaozao's face. But just as his hand was about to touch her face, she caught it.

Feeling the cold skin in her hand, Lin Zaozao couldn't detect even a hint of a pulse from his wrist.

The person standing before her was dead.

A lifeless corpse, yet here he was pretending to be a System, even attempting to control her entire life.

"I didn't see the end of that scene just now. That scene wasn't really the ending for me and Han Ye and the others in this life, was it?"

"How could it not be? They all died, and you were at the end of your rope. What could you possibly change?"

The man in red clothes wrenched his hand free from Lin Zaozao's grip and spoke with hatred.

"The scene you showed me was fast-forwarded. I think you must have skipped over parts that were unfavorable to you.

More importantly, how come some of the events in the scene you showed don't match up with what happened after I transmigrated?"

"Of course they don't match up. Because Han Ye and Han Xibei and the others, they all..."

Before the man in red could finish speaking, he was enveloped by a transparent barrier and disappeared from Lin Zaozao's sight.

"Elder Sister, Elder Sister, wake up quickly, Elder Sister!"

Hearing the anxious calls, Lin Zaozao slowly opened her eyes. When she did, she saw Xi Luo's worried gaze.

Lin Zaozao stared at Xi Luo's lively face, momentarily stunned. She hadn't yet fully emerged from the scene the System had shown her.

In the final moments of that scene, Xi Luo had been lying before her, covered in blood, losing his life and becoming a senseless corpse.

"Elder Sister, how are you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Xi Luo helped Lin Zaozao sit up and asked anxiously.

"Luo Luo, am I in the dream world you all created right now?"

Lin Zaozao's sudden question startled Xi Luo. When he met her determined gaze, he wanted to evade but didn't know how to answer.

"Luo Luo, just now, a man in red clothes calling himself the System forcefully made me watch what would happen in my life."

"Impossible, didn't I seal him away? How did he get out?"

"Luo Luo..."

Faced with Lin Zaozao's shocked expression, Xi Luo realized he had let something slip in his haste.

"Luo Luo, tell me, where exactly is this place? Am I in reality or in a dream?

And the scene that red-clothed man showed me, was it real or fake?

At the end of the scene, except for Gu Shan, all of you were killed by that System. Were the events in that scene real?"

"El-Elder Sister..."
