Crying While Filling the Pit I Dug - Chapter 33

System Oppa: [The exchange is successful. 500 points have been deducted, and the current points are 1500. The location of the Demon Princess has been marked in blue on the map, situated in Yangmei Town. Your location is marked green on the map.]

On the electronic map, the blue coordinate point representing the Demon Princess was far away from the red coordinate point of Ling Qianyi. Obviously, the two of them did not meet each other. So what was Ling Qianyi doing there?

Song Miaomiao waited for another whole day, but Ling Qianyi was still motionless, and there were only five days until the deadline for the final mission. Therefore, she decided to go down the mountain to see for herself.

She tidied up her luggage, left a letter for Aunt Cuihua, explaining that she was going down the mountain by herself, and headed towards Ling Qianyi’s location.

It didn’t take long for Song Miaomiao to walk from the foot of Jianshan Mountain, but within a few hours, she found Ling Qianyi in a cave. Ling Qianyi’s chest was stained with blood, and he lay unconscious in the cave alone. Song Miaomiao touched his forehead; it was hot.

Song Miaomiao: [System Oppa, please exchange me for fever-reducing, bleeding-stopping, and anti-inflammatory medicines.]

System Oppa: [The exchange is successful, 400 points will be deducted, and the current points are 1100 points. The medicines are in your purse; please check it.]

Song Miaomiao opened her purse, took out the pills, and helped Ling Qianyi by giving him water and medicine. Probably because she touched Ling Qianyi’s wound, he subconsciously groaned. Seeing Ling Qianyi like that, Song Miaomiao was very anxious. She didn’t dare to touch his wound, trying to move as lightly as possible.

System Oppa: [Song Wanyu’s character’s three-dimensionality has been improved, and the bonus points are 100 points. The accumulated points are 1200 points.]

How did the three-dimensional improvement of the character come about? The previous time, she found the motivation of the character who went to the Wanshan Sect, but this one had nothing to do with the motivation. Song Miaomiao couldn’t figure it out. After she confirmed that his life was not in danger for the time being, there was only one problem left: how to lure the Demon Princess to save him.

Yangmei Town? What kind of place was that? Why wasn’t the Princess in the Demon Sect’s main altar? Song Miaomiao opened the electronic map again, but unexpectedly discovered that the coordinate point of the Demon Princess was constantly moving, and the movement was very fast, like a galloping horse. However, she did not run in a certain direction but ran here and there, as if she was hiding or confusing others and diverting their attention.

Even if Song Miaomiao wanted to find her, it would be difficult. It was also impossible to take the sleeping Ling Qianyi to find her. Another day later, Ling Qianyi’s fever subsided, but he was still unconscious. Song Miaomiao fed him some water and was shocked to realize that the coordinate point of the Demon Princess was heading towards her.

Hopefully, she would actually run in their direction. Song Miaomiao had been closely monitoring the coordinates of the Demon Princess. Although she still took one step east and half a step west, her overall direction was indeed correct. Song Miaomiao moved Ling Qianyi to a slightly conspicuous place and quietly waited for the Demon Princess to pass by.

Sure enough, at noon, the Demon Princess, wearing a veil and riding a horse, followed by more than twenty disciples, arrived. Song Miaomiao hid herself in the grass and witnessed the Demon Princess personally killing the disciples before rescuing the male lead on the roadside. 

System Oppa: [Task 6 completed. Reward points are 3,000 points. Current points are 4,200 points.]

The task was completed, but Song Miaomiao felt like there was an empty space in her heart. From then on, Ling Qianyi should officially accompany the Demon Princess, and they would fall in love over time or fall in love at first sight. In short, it would be a romantic plot.

Song Miaomiao didn’t know where to go. After Song Chaowang’s death, the Wanshan Sect would take her in because she was alone. However, she was not willing to return to the Wanshan Sect. Firstly, the memories with her brother and Ling Qianyi left that place filled with nothing but sadness. Despite harboring hatred towards whoever killed her brother, she still felt a profound sense of sorrow.

Song Miaomiao lived like that for another three years. During that time, she heard many legends about Ling Qianyi in Jianghu. After the Demon Sect suffered a severe defeat at the hands of the righteous court, internal strife erupted, leading to the demise of the Demon Sect’s leader. Ling Qianyi, a disciple of the righteous sect, joined the Demon Sect. Seizing the opportunity, he became the right-hand man of the Princess, helping her regain power and executing many disciples who had been indiscriminately killing ordinary people. In the initial two years, Ling Qianyi faced various insults from people. However, he later assumed power and abolished the original violent practices of the Demon Sect, such as forcing people to fight fiercely with tigers, bullying neighbors, exploiting common people, kidnapping, and extorting money. In recent months, the reputation of the Demon Sect had somewhat improved.

Over the past three years, the Wanshan Sect underwent significant changes. With the death of Yuan Buluo, the sect was left without a leader. Despite temporary replacement leaders, including Master Fang, Wang Rui, and Yuan Diening, the lack of a definitive leader posed challenges. Following everyone’s recommendation, Master Fang became the new head of Wanshan Sect and married Yuan Diening. Despite Master Fang’s attempts to avenge the former leader Yuan Buluo by sending troops to encircle and suppress the Demon Sect multiple times, all efforts ended in failure.

Song Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief. The overall trend of the plot seemed to be proceeding according to the outline she had imagined but not written.

The system had not released any new tasks, indicating it was waiting for the male lead, Ling Qianyi, to complete the plot on his own. Song Miaomiao anticipated retiring once the final chapter was finished.
