All Worlds Beg the Villainess to Act Like a Human

"At this moment, if I propose to forgive Lann Zhen, I’m afraid you will be angry and won’t follow my wishes. Tell her not to worry too much, just take care of Xuan Shuang, there’s no need for anyone else."

The woman rarely smiled, and this smile was serene, as the past scattered like the wind.

Regret? All regrets are nothing but dissatisfaction with previous choices. If you were satisfied, who would regret?

System 666 felt, perhaps it was an illusion, that the demonic qi from the woman’s body was diminishing.

System 666: [Host, go ahead and do what you must, the Venerable is not an indecisive person, I feel she understands, the demonic qi on her body is dispersing. Haha, I think it has something to do with the experiences with Host in recent times. She said she wouldn’t pay attention to this side, I still released it. Her ears are sharp, hard not to notice.]

Qiann Yan: "You’re such a clever little thing."

System 666 was overwhelmed with joy, being praised once by the Great Rong Empress wasn’t easy.

He’s been praised now, could he be worthy of being called the Commander?

Among the myriad of talents surrounding Host, he was the only Commander.

He would keep on striving, enriching himself, improving himself, not letting those minor commanders overshadow him.

Qiann Yan had no idea that System 666 had gone through a rich process of self-supplementation, and had self-positioned as Commander.

Qiann Yan’s trace of consciousness still lingered on the wooden deity statue, feeling Lann Zhen’s aura weakening, likely nearing its end, and did not withdraw the consciousness temporarily.

Approximately the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Lann Zhen, who was lying on the ground, breathed her last.

The Underworld Messenger was already waiting on the side, immediately shackling Lann Zhen’s soul. Lann Zhen did not struggle, but quickly looked toward the statue’s position, and said sorry once again.

The two Underworld Messengers bowed toward Qiann Yan’s statue: "We were ordered to capture Lann Zhen’s soul for its return to the Underworld, and hereby depart, sorry to disturb the Venerable."

"Gentlemen, may I take the statue with me?" Lann Zhen asked, "If left here, it might not be properly cared for."

The Underworld Messenger naturally agreed, this was not a difficult task, if something happened here, it might implicate them.

Lann Zhen embraced the statue as she was escorted away by the two Underworld Messengers. Just then, the door was pushed open, her two children, whom she raised, learned she was gone, and cried bitterly against her, admitting their wrongs.

These two children were not foolish, much smarter than her, and had quickly discovered the truth.

But she had long since let go of this connection, and faced with their remorse, she was not deeply moved.

Lann Zhen was momentarily stunned, her soul trembling incessantly, though souls rarely shed tears, yet she did at this moment.

The two Underworld Messengers quickly asked, "Lann Zhen, what’s wrong?"

Tears from a soul are indeed rare, and they were rather concerned, besides this person was much gentler than the previous ones, still holding onto the Venerable’s statue.

Perhaps someday the Venerable might remember this person and want to take her back.

Lann Zhen then began sobbing, deeply sad, as she turned to look at her two children, embracing her corpse and crying bitterly.

"Parting in life and death is commonplace," said the Underworld Messenger, "there’s still time now, I can allow you to take a longer look."

Crying so heartbreakingly, shows the depth of emotion.

Lann Zhen: "No need."

"You two, let’s go."

She wasn’t crying for the two children she had lovingly raised, not that she couldn’t bear them.

She indeed poured her heart and soul into them, and there was emotion. Yet, this emotion faded with the subsequent events.

What mattered more to her were those years spent beside her elder sister.

She cried because her elder sister, perhaps, was like her now, indifferent to the children’s remorse.

Therefore, she cried for forever losing her sister.

That place, she cannot return, not even a chance to apologize to her sister in person.

In the Underworld, Lann Zhen encountered three others. Her relentless crying upon arrival attracted the contentious trio.
