Qin Luo understood.
Su Muwan also understood.
In simple terms,
their current goal was...
The two exchanged a glance.
A phrase popped into their minds:
[Hunt the Chosen Ones]?!
Outside the mental hospital,
Qin Luo looked up at the sky, which was gradually returning to normal.
The thunder and dark clouds were slowly dissipating.
"Long Long! I still want to eat a lollipop!"
"No... no... this is my last one!"
Jiang Xueqi and the others were chasing and playing in the yard after watching TV.
Before leaving,
Qin Luo turned to Doctor Ya and asked, "So, my system is also an embodiment of the Heavenly Dao's will?"
"And the tasks inside are all predetermined?"
"Exactly,"
Doctor Ya nodded.
"How do you know so much?"
Qin Luo was puzzled.
Doctor Ya replied calmly, "Because I, too, am an embodiment of the Heavenly Dao's will."
Qin Luo's mouth twitched. "You're the Heavenly Dao's will, the system is the Heavenly Dao's will... who else is the Heavenly Dao's will?"
"Not sure,"
Doctor Ya shrugged. "The Heavenly Dao went mad, the world fell into chaos, and who knows how many fragments of its will were scattered. It's hard to say."
"However..."
She tapped her head and said, "[I] told me that as long as we contain all the protagonists, everything will return to normal."
"The world will be restored and set back on the right path."
Qin Luo nodded in understanding, then suddenly thought of something. "What about those system users in the alliance? Are they..."
"System users?"
Doctor Ya looked confused. She shook her head. "I don't know. All I know is that I need to contain the Chosen Ones."
Qin Luo: ?
Just as he was about to leave, Qin Luo suddenly had a question mark pop up in his mind.
He turned to look at Jiang Xueqi, who was snatching someone else's lollipop, and pulled out a lollipop from his system space. He called out, "Hey! Jiang Xueqi, come here for a second!"
Jiang Xueqi, upon hearing Qin Luo call her, immediately brightened up. "Director Brother!!"
She ran over with a patter.
"Thank you, Director Brother!"
"Xueqi knew Director Brother would be the best to Xueqi!"
Jiang Xueqi happily munched on the lollipop.
Su Muwan's eye twitched as she watched.
Good heavens, why do you still keep calling him "brother" even when you're crazy?
Qin Luo asked, "Do you remember when you were little and you tried to steal my family's young lady's doll?"
Jiang Xueqi, while eating the lollipop, closed her eyes and thought carefully. Then she opened her eyes and said, "Oh, yeah, I think so."
She pointed at Su Muwan, her face full of dislike. "I just wanted to play with the doll!"
"But she wouldn't let me! She even hit me!"
"And then I didn't get the doll."
Su Muwan was speechless. "Excuse me, you do realize you were trying to steal someone else's stuff, right?"
But...
Now that she thought about it, Su Muwan frowned. The bronze cauldron really could alter the timeline.
But...
Why wasn't Qin Luo mentioned in this version?
After all, it was Qin Luo who had protected her back then.
Su Muwan's doubt was also Qin Luo's doubt.
He pressed further, "Wasn't I there? Or was there someone else who helped Su Muwan protect the doll?"
"Hmm..."
Jiang Xueqi thought hard, then opened her eyes and said, "No."
Tsk... why is that?
Qin Luo turned to Doctor Ya. "Do you know why this is?"
Doctor Ya shook her head. "All I know is that I need to contain the Chosen Ones."
Qin Luo: "......."
Come on, can you at least give me something constructive here?
"Of course, while I don't know what you've done by using the bronze cauldron's power to enter dreams,"
Doctor Ya said seriously, "I must remind you that when you alter one timeline, other timelines will also change accordingly."
"This might have an impact on you later."
Qin Luo and Su Muwan exchanged a glance.
Wow, so by changing two timelines, we've already indirectly altered a lot of things??
Su Muwan blinked. "It shouldn't be that big of a deal, right?"
Qin Luo nodded in agreement. "Isn't there supposed to be a world's corrective force? How much trouble could two small players like us cause?"
"Exactly!"
Doctor Ya shook her head.
She hoped everything would work out.
But...
She lay back on the recliner. So far...
She still didn't understand how the Heavenly Dao had gone mad, causing the world to fall into chaos and merge together.
It couldn't be...
Doctor Ya glanced at the odd pair of Su Muwan and Qin Luo walking away.
She thought for a moment, then looked away.
Heh.
No need to scare herself.
....
.....
On the way back,
inside the car.
Su Muwan leaned against the window, her hand propping up her chin as she gazed absentmindedly outside.
The amount of information she had learned today was overwhelming.
Thankfully, she had always been into novels, anime, and TV shows, so she wasn't too shocked.
In fact, she had often fantasized about such things before.
But now that it was actually happening to her, Su Muwan felt a bit dazed.
What's going on? I always thought I was the world's ultimate villain.
But now you're telling me that I might have to save the world with Qin Luo?
"Miss."
At that moment.
Qin Luo moved from the driver's seat to the back.
"Oh, Qin Luo... Huh?"
Su Muwan was startled. She looked at Qin Luo, who had suddenly sat next to her, and exclaimed, "You're here? Then who's driving the car?"
As she spoke, she glanced forward and saw...
A pair of arms and two legs operating the steering wheel.
Hey, hey, hey!
Is this how you're supposed to use the power of shadows?
But whatever.
Su Muwan took a deep breath and reached out to hug Qin Luo tightly, burying her head in his chest.
She held on firmly, refusing to let go.
After a long while.
Su Muwan looked up at Qin Luo's face, her lips lightly pursed, and said, "Qin Luo, promise me that no matter what happens, we won't be separated, okay?"
Qin Luo stroked Su Muwan's head, sensing her unease, and replied with a serious expression, "I promise."
"Miss, I will never leave you for my entire life... Mmm!"
Before he could finish.
Su Muwan quickly leaned up and kissed Qin Luo.
After what felt like an eternity.
Smack~!
Su Muwan let go of Qin Luo.
The latter was slightly stunned. "Miss?"
"I told you," Su Muwan blushed and glared at Qin Luo, "Don't set up such weird flags!"
Then, she leaned against Qin Luo's chest and said earnestly, "A lifetime is too far away."
"I just want to be with you for four days."
"That would be... spring, summer, autumn, and winter."
Qin Luo was momentarily speechless.
After a long pause.
"Miss."
"Hmm?"
"Where did you learn such cheesy pickup lines?"
"Ahem!! What's wrong with that? I learned it from the male lead in The Blind Fiancée! What's it to you?"
"Haha, nothing."
Qin Luo chuckled. Alright then.
Even though there were still many things he didn't understand, at least he now knew their current goal.
And that was to contain the protagonists.
But...
Qin Luo tilted his head.
He patted Su Muwan and asked, "Wait a minute, Miss."
Su Muwan was puzzled. "What's wrong?"
"Doesn't knowing this mean we're back to square one?"
"Weren't we already provoking and containing the protagonists before?"
As soon as he said that.
After thinking for half a second.
Su Muwan strongly retorted, "Nonsense! That was me being forced to provoke them! I never wanted to mess with the protagonists in the first place!"
"So, now that we're actively provoking them, isn't that a bit too much for you, Miss?"
"Not really."
Su Muwan looked at Qin Luo's surprised expression, cleared her throat, and explained, "Before, I didn't understand. I just wanted to stay away from the protagonists and live a peaceful life."
"But now, since I know that containing all the protagonists is the only way to restore this world to normal..."
Su Muwan's lips curled into a smile. "I no longer have any reservations!"
"Those so-called 'chosen ones'? Let me handle them! I'll suppress them all!"
...
...
That night.
Boom—!
Streaks of golden light appeared all over the world.
Majestic buildings and breathtaking landscapes materialized out of thin air.
Ancient forces began to emerge one after another!
...
...

e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1.
