The system remained silent for a long time before continuing, "There are currently two options to send the host back to your original world."

"The first option is to win the forgiveness of Lu Mingzhao, the woman of destiny in this world."

Without a second thought, Liu Yuyao rejected the option.

How is that possible?

Lu Mingzhao hates her to the bone, keeps her locked up here every day to torture her, and wishes he could kill her. How could he possibly forgive her?

She then asked, "What's the second option?"

"The second option is: you die in this world, but under certain conditions, you can be reborn in your original world."

After the system finished stating the conditions, Liu Yuyao's eyes suddenly lit up.

She had already lost hope, but the system gave her such a big surprise.

It seems that this system is not solely focused on killing her, nor is it entirely on Lu Mingzhao's side.

At least for now, she still has a way to survive.

The next day, Zhao Xianglan suddenly found Lu Mingzhao and said that Liu Yuyao from the backyard was requesting an audience.

This was the first time in several months that Liu Yuyao had asked to see him.

In the past, when Zhao Xianglan sent messages back, she would only say that Liu Yuyao was shouting in a hoarse voice all day long, "Let her out, give her her freedom."

But this time, she seemed to have calmed down completely and was ready to tell the truth.

Lu Mingzhao quickly arrived at Liu Yuyao's courtyard.

Liu Yuyao has lost a lot of weight.

She voluntarily explained how she came into this world and why she wanted to complete these tasks.

Lu Mingzhao listened quietly without saying a word.

Only after she finished speaking did Lu Mingzhao slowly open his mouth: "So, the world I live in is a storybook, and you are the one who created this storybook, right?"

"That's right." Liu Yuyao nodded, then frowned slightly, her eyes sincere.

"I now truly realize that I made a mistake. Your life is not easy, and not everyone in your position can have the happiness you have. But in the end, it's all the system's fault."

"If it hadn't forced me into this world to carry out this so-called mission, I wouldn't have occupied your body for fourteen years, nor would I have disturbed your life."

"This is an undeserved disaster for both of us; I am a victim as well."

Lu Mingzhao remained calm, undisturbed by Liu Yuyao's words. She looked at her and asked, "You never told me these things before, even when you suffered greatly. Why are you suddenly willing to tell me now?"

"Because I want to make a deal with you." Liu Yuyao lowered her voice, looked directly into Lu Mingzhao's eyes, and said, word by word, "A deal that only you and I can make."

"What kind of deal?"

Seeing that Lu Mingzhao's interest had been piqued, Liu Yuyao subtly curled the corners of her lips and continued:

"You must be very curious as to why I can always produce some amazing things, such as poisoned arrows that can harm Zhou Ningchuan and mind-altering drugs. Actually... these things all come from my system."

"It's hard for me to explain exactly what the system is. Based on your understanding, you can think of it as a god."

"It can offer many things that ordinary people cannot understand, and I think you will need it."

Upon hearing this, Lu Mingzhao naturally thought of Li Xuanzhou, who was terminally ill.

Liu Yuyao had previously written about this in a letter to Li Xuanzhou. She claimed to possess a miraculous medicine that could cure Li Xuanzhou's incurable illness.

Perhaps it came from this so-called system.

Lu Mingzhao really wanted this system; if she had it, she could save Li Xuanzhou.

But she didn't believe Liu Yuyao would be so kind.

Liu Yuyao naturally noticed the other party's concerns.

She gave a self-deprecating smile. "I know you're wondering why I proposed this deal."

"The reason is simple. The system originally gave me another path, which was to have you forgive me so I could live. But I think I'm probably the person you hate the most, right? You would never forgive me, so I had no choice but to choose this path."

"I'll give you the system, and in return, you must kill me with your own hands."

"The system says I came into this world as the creator, and it's meaningless for anyone else to hurt me, except for you."

"Only if you, the woman of destiny, kill me will my sins be absolved and I can return to my own world."

"I know I've done a lot of wrong things, but since things have come to this, why not have a win-win situation? If you kill me, you can fulfill your own wish and get the system. As for me, I've suffered a lot and am reaping what I sowed."

"After returning to my world, I will definitely change my ways and will no longer hold the same thoughts as before."

Lu Mingzhao stared at her for a while.

Liu Yuyao met the other person's gaze with a natural expression, but the sweat on her back had already soaked through her inner clothes.

After a moment, Lu Mingzhao withdrew his gaze and said calmly, "Okay."

Liu Yuyao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but remained calm on the surface: "That's good. I'm ready to offer my neck for execution at any time."

Lu Mingzhao smiled and said, "I need to make some preparations."

Liu Yuyao nodded.

The next morning, Lu Mingzhao arrived with his men.

Liu Yuyao was ready. As she watched a group of people walk towards her, she only had eyes for Lu Mingzhao.

She's about to succeed.

The second option the system gave her yesterday was for Lu Mingzhao to kill her himself.

If Lu Mingzhao, the woman of destiny, kills her with her own hands, she can obtain the other party's destiny and use it to return to her original world and reshape her body.

Of course, she wasn't lying; Lu Mingzhao would indeed inherit her system.

But she was hiding some things.

For example, as soon as she dies, no matter who kills her, the system will automatically transfer her to the woman of destiny in this world—that is, Lu Mingzhao.

Unfortunately, Lu Mingzhao will not live long after obtaining this system.

Because this world is, after all, derived from the world created by Liu Yuyao.

Liu Yuyao is still one of the creators of this world.

By killing her with his own hands, Lu Mingzhao violated the cycle of Heaven and would be punished by the laws of Heaven.

However, Lu Mingzhao will never have the chance to find out about this.

Lu Mingzhao walked up to Liu Yuyao, holding a dagger that gleamed coldly in his hand.

Liu Yuyao stood up impatiently and took two steps toward her.

But the next moment, Liu Yuyao was stunned.

Because another woman took the dagger from Lu Mingzhao's hand and walked straight towards her.

"Wait, who are you!"

The woman sneered, "You don't recognize me? Didn't you remember me when you pinned all the blame on me?"

"My name is Lan'er, 'Miss'."
