As soon as the System's voice faded, Lin Zaozao heard the anguished cries of Qian Duoduo and Mi Mi from within the Sacrificial Hall.
Thinking of the cruel punishment methods of the deadly System, Lin Zaozao quickly scrambled to her feet and ran towards the back hall.
When Lin Zaozao reached the back of the Sacrificial Hall, she saw Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo, who had always accompanied her, lying in pools of blood, their bodies covered in wounds.
Seeing this scene, Lin Zaozao's legs gave way, and she collapsed to the ground. Hearing Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo's whimpers, Lin Zaozao crawled towards them on her hands and knees.
"Qian, Qian Duoduo, Mi Duoduo, what happened? You were fine just a moment ago, how did you get hurt?"
Lin Zaozao cradled Qian Duoduo in her arms and reached out to cover the bleeding wound on Mi Duoduo's neck. Watching their bodies convulse, Lin Zaozao's tears fell unceasingly.
"Master, it hurts!"
"I'm in so much pain, Master!"
Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo cried out to Lin Zaozao for help as their bodies continued to twitch.
On the day Xi Luo, Qian Duoduo, and Mi Duoduo were brought back to the Sacrificial Hall, the System had used ten years of her lifespan as an offering to grant her the ability to understand wolf language.
Lin Zaozao had no complaints about that sacrifice to the dog System. She had already lost the will to live under the System's oppression, let alone care about ten years of her lifespan.
Moreover, during all these years she had spent in the Sacrificial Hall, if it weren't for Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo's constant companionship, she would have long been driven mad by that damned System.
"Qian Duoduo, Mi Duoduo, don't worry, I know medical skills. I traded my own health with that System for superior medical expertise. My skills can save you. Trust me, I can definitely save you both."
Lin Zaozao covered Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo's wounds with her hands, frantically preparing to suture their injuries.
But before she could take action, Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo breathed their last in her arms, one after the other.
Lin Zaozao looked at the two giant wolves who had stopped breathing and reached out with trembling hands to touch them.
Since she and Luo Luo had brought them back from the pack of giant wolves, they had been tiny little things.
With great difficulty, she had managed to raise them to the size of small calves.
Those two lively wolf cubs had accompanied her through her manic episodes and had stayed with her during her periods of depression in this empty Sacrificial Hall.
Every night, in the quiet hours, they would accompany her to gaze at the moon in the sky. When she was in unbearable pain from the System's punishments, they would silently lick the tears from her face.
They had spent so much time together, more than she could count.
But now?
Her Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo had been cruelly killed by that damned System. The reason? Simply because she had defied that cursed System.
[Host, these two wolf cubs are the consequence of your defiance against this System. If there is a next time, this System will punish your dear brother Xi Luo.
Xi Luo is a Wolf-born Child, his curses come true, and he is also the child of destiny in this world.
Or rather, the destiny on him is stronger than yours, Host. If you don't cooperate with me in matchmaking Princess Yehui, Princess Qianxue with your Han Ye brother and Han Xibei, next time, this System will directly cut off Xi Luo's tongue, taking away his ability to curse people. Let him change from the currently revered young Priest back to that despised Wolf-born Child.]
[System!]
[What? Has the Host agreed?]
[I will kill you!!!]
Lin Zaozao silently stroked Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo's wolf heads, her black eyes now a bloody red. Even her black hair, which reached her ankles, turned silver in an instant. A layer of black energy swirled around her.
[What? You're angry? So what if you're angry. In this world, you have people you care about.
As long as I have leverage over you, you can only obey my commands and work for me.
If you dare to disobey, I will kill the people you care about, one by one.
I'll make them beg for life but unable to live, beg for death but unable to die!]
The System's sinister voice caused Lin Zaozao's eyes to quickly change from black to blood red.
[You dog, you deserve to die! You should have died long ago...]
As soon as Lin Zaozao's words fell, the energy swirling around her converged into a single point and shot towards the center of her forehead.
In the next second, the System, which had just been swaggering, let out a miserable scream.
"You deserve to die, you deserve to die, you deserve to die! Since I can't live on, you'll die with me. You bastard, you scum, I'll kill you..."
[Damn it, you dare to hurt me. Wait until I recover, I won't spare Xi Luo, nor will I spare that man around you.]
[No need for you to spare anyone, I'm killing you right now! Once you're dead, it's all over. Don't worry, I'll die with you.]
With Lin Zaozao's curses, the golden light in her eyes intensified, and her silver hair moved without wind.
It made her look like an immortal, or perhaps a demon.
The System, enveloped by that energy, screamed even more painfully.
Just as Lin Zaozao was about to perish together with the System, Ye Hui and Qian Xue's triumphant voices came from behind.
"Mingzhu, this is what you get for not obeying. Your System has punished you, hasn't it? These two wolf cubs are your lesson!"
"Qian Xue is right. Still dare to disobey? Did the System turn your hair silver too? With silver hair, you must look like an ugly monster now. Haha! Mingzhu, you deserve it!"
Hearing Ye Hui and Qian Xue's smug voices, Lin Zaozao, her body full of murderous intent, slowly turned around.
When her blood-red eyes met Ye Hui and Qian Xue's scornful gazes, they were frightened by the killing intent emanating from Lin Zaozao and immediately stepped back.
"It was you, it was you who caused the death of my Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo. If it weren't for you two, my Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo wouldn't have died!
You two are as evil as that dog System, equally shameless. You self-righteous bastards, you both deserve to die!"
"No, it's not our fault. It, it was the System that made us do it."
"That's right, go find the System. It told us to do this, go find it."
Ye Hui and Qian Xue hurriedly tried to defend themselves.
Due to the deaths of Qian Duoduo and Mi Duoduo, Lin Zaozao, on the verge of collapse, directly reached out and violently gripped Ye Hui and Qian Xue's necks.
The force in her palms was so great that one could hear the cracking sounds of the bones in Ye Hui and Qian Xue's necks.
