Unlike the previous times, this time, the white world was riddled with numerous black cracks. Dark light seeped through the fissures, devouring the surrounding whiteness.
Feng Guang blinked and innocently asked, “Did you renovate?”
“Erasing emotions.”
With that cold voice from the system, Feng Guang paused. A fleeting moment of confusion flashed in her eyes before clarity returned, and the black cracks in the space slowly filled with white once more.
In no time, it was a pure white world again.
“What happened to me?” Feng Guang rubbed her temples, her throbbing headache making her uncomfortable.
“The host’s corruption value was too high. To ensure the normal progress of the mission, all memories from the world of Rebirth: The Brilliant Path to Stardom have been erased.”
“What? I was in some… Brilliant Path to Stardom world?” She tried to recall but came up empty. Gritting her teeth, she demanded, “System, shouldn’t you ask for my opinion before deleting my memories?”
“To maintain the order of each world and prevent collapse, I have the authority to erase the host’s memories.”
“Then what does it mean that I accumulated a high corruption value?”
The system remained silent.
“If you can delete my memories so easily, does that mean you’ve done it before?” She scoffed. “Of course, if you had, I wouldn’t remember it, would I?”
The system coldly replied, “Selecting a new script.”
Feng Guang ignored the books that appeared beside her. This time, she refused to let the system change the subject. “I’ve wondered for a long time why you chose me. You only said my brainwaves matched yours, but now I have my doubts. Everything I’m seeing—it’s all fake, isn’t it?”
“No matter what the host suspects, you cannot erase me from your neural system. Therefore, I truly exist.”
“So what you’re saying is, you can deal with me however you want, but I have no way to deal with you? That’s ridiculously unfair.”
“We were never equals. This is a contractual relationship. You are merely my contract holder, not my master.”
Feng Guang sneered. “Heh.”
What she didn’t know was that even an unrestrained system like this could only exist as long as she acknowledged it. In other words, if she ever ceased to believe in its existence, the system would also fade into nothingness.
This so-called space was entirely supported by her consciousness.
“It’s time for the host to execute the mission.”
A random book floated in front of Feng Guang. This time, she wasn’t even given the right to choose her world. Before reaching out to take the book, she asked, “If I collect one hundred points, can I return to my world?”
“Yes.”
“Fine, I’ll trust you one more time.” Because, in this bizarre and inexplicable space, she had nothing else to rely on.
Mad Love for the Adorable Fool: Demon Lord, Spare Me!
Feng Guang’s hand trembled slightly when she saw the title.
It was an xianxia (immortal cultivation) novel. Where there were immortals, there were also demons. The female lead, Li Qing, was the youngest disciple of the Celestial Sect. Her talent for cultivation was mediocre at best, but she had a lovable personality—everyone adored her. Even if her magic was weak, she had countless people willing to protect her.
The male lead, Ye Jin, was the ruler of the demonic path. As expected, demons and righteous cultivators like the Celestial Sect were sworn enemies. Ye Jin had killed countless people, and his reputation for being ruthless made others steer clear of him. Yet, this very man fell for Li Qing.
As for the second male lead—the one Feng Guang needed to win over—his name was Chu Yu. He was the only ghost cultivator across the three realms. Seven hundred years ago, Li Qing’s past life, Mu Ning, had loved Chu Yu. However, due to a misunderstanding, they ended in tragedy—one dead, the other severely wounded.
Mu Ning was reincarnated as Li Qing, while Chu Yu remained in the desolate and lonely Ghost Realm, waiting for her for seven centuries.
He never expected that when they met again, Mu Ning—now Li Qing—would already have another lover.
“This plot… is brutal.” Feng Guang’s face remained expressionless, showing no excitement whatsoever.
She had no confidence in winning over a man who had waited for the female lead for seven hundred years.
“A friendly reminder: before completing the mission, the host should avoid any physical contact with the target.”
“Why?”
Because it would trigger instincts that had been etched into his very soul.
The system did not answer. Instead, it simply stated, “Mission start.”
Hopefully this time when he does inevitably remember her, he’ll be more careful and remember her words to him last time
