Ning Shu stopped thinking about what happened with Gong Luo. Each person had their own fate.

  She sat down on the sofa and started meditating to cultivate. Once she felt about done, she watered the bonsai a little. Although these bonsai would never wither, she still wanted to water them.

  Following that, she read for a while. She wanted to one day finish reading all of the books on this bookshelf, that way she could say that she read extensively.

  There was no sense of time in the system space. After Ning Shu finished reading one of the books, she set it down and traded for some fasting pills, water, medicine, and antidote pills from the system marketplace.

  Once she finished preparing everything, she said to 2333, “Let’s go do the task.”


  “Alright.”


  Ning Shu immediately felt a burst of dizziness. Once her soul merged with the body, she felt all the hairs on her body rise on end. Her muscles were tensed up and her heart was pounding hard.

  It was very dangerous!

  Ning Shu immediately opened her eyes, but before she could check the surroundings, she saw a huge tiger pounce towards her. The vicious air of a beast rushed towards her.

  Ning Shu stabbed the thing she was holding towards the tiger’s eyes. This body was very nimble and the black sword accurately pierced the tiger’s eye. Ning Shu forcefully twisted the sword and scorching hot blood spurted out. The tiger roared as it fell, convulsing on the ground. A few moments later, it was dead.

  Once the tiger died, Ning Shu fell to sitting on the ground. She gasped for breath as she checked the surroundings. This was a cut-out stone room. She was currently locked in an iron cage and all that was in here was her and the tiger.

  It was clear that someone wanted her to fight this tiger to the death.

  The stone door opened and a man dressed in black walked in. Ning Shu looked towards him. When she saw that his hair was up in a bun, she knew that this time’s task was set in the ancient era.

  The man gave off a very cold aura and his face was filled with scars, causing him to look very dangerous.

  “Not bad. You took less time than last time,” said the man. His voice was a little hoarse and very cold. The sound of his voice was like the hissing of a snake.

  It made people very uncomfortable. Upon seeing this person, this body’s heart filled with reverence and fear.

  Ning Shu still hadn’t received the storyline so she just replied, “Yes.”


  “Training will be sped up. Master has a task to assign you,” said the man.

  “Understood.”


  The man glanced at Ning Shu. His voice was firm and slightly sinister as he said, “Remember, you vow absolute loyalty and devotion to the third prince. Master decides our life and death. All we must do is to fulfill our mission even at the cost of our own lives once Master gives an order.”
……

  Was this brainwashing?

  Before Ning Shu could react, she had already reflexively replied, “Understood.”


  The man finally nodded in satisfaction. “Rest a while, there’ll be a new test soon.”


  After saying that, he turned and left.

  Ning Shu directly sat on the ground to start receiving the storyline.
