【Ding! 】
[The evil beast Mojiao in the Cyanwood Forest has done many evil things and harmed innocent people. Many people in my sect have also died at its hands! As the number one master in our sect, how can we allow this ferocious beast to go unpunished? 】
[The system releases the latest mission: kill the ferocious beast Mojiao and obtain the ferocious beast crystal core in its body! 】
[Task completion reward: top-quality spiritual weapon fragments +1 (10 can be synthesized into top-quality spiritual weapons), points +10. 】
[Mission failed: 30% of the host’s cultivation level will be deducted! 】
…
In the main hall of Netherworld Mountain, Gu Changqing, who was lying on a chair while reading a book and eating fruit, suddenly saw such a task issued by the system.
Regarding this task, he was speechless. He rolled his eyes and said to the system: "System, are you addicted to cheating people? My reward for completing a task is only such a small amount? It's still a fragment! The task failed. Thirty percent of my cultivation is going to be deducted?! Is this what you call fair? It’s not fair at all!”
The system said: "Host, this is fair! If the top-grade spiritual weapon fragments are synthesized, it will be a top-grade spiritual weapon! In this world, top-grade spiritual weapons are very rare and expensive! Use the host 100% Thirty years of cultivation as collateral, the system feels that the system still suffered a big loss!"
Gu Changqing: "..."
A eloquent speaker...
I really doubt whether your system is a fake!
He raised his eyes and looked at the latest tasks on the system panel. As he looked at them, his brows suddenly furrowed.
Greenwood Forest?
Why does this place look so familiar?
He thought about it carefully, and suddenly, he thought, isn't this place in the Greenwood Forest the only way for the protagonist in the original book to go up the mountain to become a disciple?
In the original novel, Ye Qing sets out from his hometown and prepares to go to Qingyun Sect to study under his master, passing by Qingmu Forest.
However, he encountered bandits in the Greenwood Forest, and all his luggage and money were robbed!
At this time, he met several inner disciples of Qingyun Sect, and that was how he became a disciple of Qingyun...
Thinking of this, Gu Changqing subconsciously held his chin with his hand and analyzed himself: "The inner disciples of Qingyun Sect suddenly appeared in Qingmu Forest. I did not mention this in the novel. I just mentioned casually that they are Go down the mountain to eliminate evil...evil? All evil beasts? Could it be that those Qingyun disciples went to Qingmu Forest to kill the evil beast Mojiao?"
"possible!"
Gu Changqing's eyes lit up, and he couldn't hide the excitement on his face: "If this point in time is the beginning of the novel, then maybe you can really meet the protagonist Ye Qing when you go to Qingmu Forest!" As he spoke, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "If I can change the fate of the protagonist Ye Qing, can I change the main plot? Can my ending also change?"
Thinking of this, Gu Changqing's thoughts gradually became clearer, and he knew what he should do next.
In order to change the final outcome, in order to change the fate of the villain Demon King's death... we must start with the protagonist!
If the protagonist had not gone to the Qingyun Sect, or the protagonist had not cultivated immortality, or the protagonist had died... then, wouldn't there have been that final battle?
Then am I saved?
"Warning! Warning!"
At this moment, the system panel suddenly turned red and issued warning sounds.
"It has been detected that the host's current thoughts are very dangerous, and the system is hereby issuing a warning!"
"The warning content is as follows: During the validity period of the system, the host cannot do anything to harm the protagonist of the original book! Let alone influence the decision of the protagonist of the original book!"
"If the system finds that the host violates any of the above, the system will have the right to deduct all the host's cultivation! Including rewards!"
"What?!"
Gu Changqing's eyes widened instantly, and he stood up from his seat. He pointed at the system and was speechless for a long time.
"Is there any mistake?"
"There are actually restrictions on this kind of thing?"
"You don't want me to hurt the protagonist of the original book? Do you think this is possible? I am the Demon Cult, and he is the right way!"
"It's only right for me to kill him!"
"Why do you want to stop me from doing this?"
The system panel flashed twice and explained: "If the host acts according to the plot of the original book, then this system will naturally not punish it. But if the host violates the rules, the protagonist of the original book will be killed before he has grown up, or forced to If you change the protagonist’s route, you will be punished!”
To put it bluntly, the protagonist is still very weak and has not grown up yet. Have you ever seen a villain kill the protagonist at the beginning? In other words, if Gu Changqing is not the book wearer, then he doesn't know who the protagonist of this book is! Not to mention killing the protagonist when he is weak!
In response, Gu Changqing sighed helplessly, gave it a roll of his eyes, and asked, "What if the protagonist changes his route? Or what if the protagonist commits suicide? Will I be punished too?"
"Won't."
"What if the protagonist accidentally chokes to death, or chokes to death from drinking water?"
"No."
"In other words, as long as I kill the protagonist or forcefully change his fate, I will be punished?"
"correct!"
Gu Changqing held his forehead and sighed, this system is really enough! Neither this nor that will be allowed, and my cultivation level will be deducted at every turn!
Since I can't hurt the protagonist, nor can I change my hands to change the protagonist's fate, I can only watch from the other side.
"Now, let's go to Qingmu Forest and take a look! If I don't complete the task, 30% of my cultivation will be lost again!"
While complaining, Gu Changqing stood up helplessly, tidied up his appearance and went out.
Qingmu Forest, located dozens of miles away from the foot of Qingyunmen Mountain, is the only way to Qingyunmen.
Looking from a distance, the green forest is like an ocean, connected together; the trees grow lush and green, exuding a comfortable coolness.
The sunlight is like strands of golden sand, passing through the layers of branches and leaves and falling on the grass.
Winding along the mountain road, you can enter the depths of the dense forest, where you can hear the sound of pine waves, dense branches and leaves, green trees, and a mountain spring flowing through the forest ravines, leaving a string of tinkling melodies.
Gu Changqing walked through the air, and in just twenty minutes, he arrived directly above the Qingmu Forest.
Fortunately, he had systematic navigation, otherwise he would have gotten lost flying in the sky by himself.
But I have to say, the feeling of flying is so exciting!
Standing in the sky, you can't feel gravity at all, and your body is as light as a feather!
Looking down, even though Gu Changqing had flown on an airplane, he still couldn't hide the fear of heights in his heart.
If it weren't for the fact that he had traveled through time constantly popping up in his mind, then he would definitely not dare to stand in the sky now.
At this time, the system responded: "According to the system scan, there are traces of the evil beast Mojiao in the lower left corner! It is less than three miles away from the host. Please complete the task as soon as possible!"
Gu Changqing glanced at the lower left corner and asked, "System, have you scanned any traces of people?"
"No!"
