Quick Transmigration: Help, The Male Leads Are All Broken!

Su Tang didn't turn back, but inwardly she breathed a sigh of relief.

It was better for her to reveal things herself than to have this guy question her bit by bit. Her self-revelation, with just the mention of Yun Qingchu, would be enough to shock him for days. But if she were questioned, she feared that not only Yun Qingchu, but also the Clown Freak, the System, and even the missions would be exposed.

Then, what would be the point?

The System looked at the lonely male lead behind them and sighed sympathetically. "Sigh, this is the first time I've felt sorry for the male lead."

Su Tang, "Was he pitiful when the entire Yun family was killed?"

The System choked, "Well… considering everything, when his Mo family was annihilated, many parties were secretly involved, and the Yun family also played a part. Moreover, he was later assassinated, and if it weren't for your help, he might have died long ago."

Su Tang watched the True Dragon split the waterfall and murmured, "This debt… it's impossible to calculate."

The waterfall split open, revealing a hidden world within. The only thing worth complaining about was the decor inside – it was truly too flashy!

Su Tang squinted from the glitter, while the True Dragon laughed boastfully, "How is it? Beautiful, right?"

Su Tang couldn't bring herself to lie, so she could only offer an awkward yet polite smile. "As long as you like it."

The True Dragon, "She used to love my treasures. Before, I looked down on her, thinking she was just a pathetic snake, shamelessly clinging to me. But now…" His gaze turned melancholic as he finished, "As long as she wakes up, I'll give her anything she wants."

Su Tang vaguely remembered the System mentioning his story with a snake, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What happened to her?"

The True Dragon, "She lost a piece of her soul and has been in a deep sleep ever since. I asked the Medicine King, and he said that for someone who has lost a piece of their soul, one must stay at the place where it was lost, light soul-summoning incense, and call her name every two hours."

Su Tang was slightly stunned. "So you've been guarding here for seven hundred years?"

The True Dragon didn't think seven hundred years was anything significant. What he cared about was never time, but her.

"Maybe she's still angry with me. When her anger subsides, she'll come back."

Su Tang opened her mouth, almost asking him, "If she never comes back, will you keep waiting?"

But in the end, she didn't ask.

Because the question seemed too superfluous.

"She will come back."

The True Dragon, "Young lady, I appreciate your kind words."

Having guarded for seven hundred years, the True Dragon had gone from a hot-tempered Dragon King to a shut-in Dragon King. It truly wasn't easy. Now, having finally found someone to talk to, he couldn't help but start gossiping.

"What's going on between you and that boy outside?"

Su Tang briefly explained their situation. Seeing the Dragon King's jaw drop lower and lower, she couldn't help but laugh. "Is there a problem?"

The True Dragon expressed that although he had lived for thousands of years, he had never encountered anything like this. "Humans really know how to play games."

After the small talk, it was naturally time to treat the injuries. Healing the meridians wasn't difficult, but the core was. The core was powerful, but a shattered core was extremely fragile. During the healing process, the slightest carelessness could cause the cracks to widen, leading to a complete collapse and turning one into a cripple.

Su Tang remained calm throughout the process. Things couldn't get any worse.

However, an accident still occurred during the treatment.

A month passed quickly. Su Tang's meridians recovered, but her core showed no signs of healing. Even worse, the crack was larger than before.

The True Dragon seemed to have never encountered this situation, stroking his chin with a puzzled expression. "This shouldn't be happening."

Su Tang was also confused, and finally, the System provided the answer.

The System's voice was small and timid, a clear sign of guilt.

"Tang Tang…"

Su Tang raised an eyebrow, recognizing the familiar cowardice, the familiar feeling of being tricked.

"Tell me. I can handle it."

The System, "I just detected that the core can't be repaired because there's a soul fragment inside. And if I'm not mistaken, it's the very soul fragment the True Dragon is looking for."

Su Tang: …

She truly was a child of destiny. Just look at all this mess!

The System, "Now the core has fused with her. If you force the core out, it won't be our problem anymore."

Su Tang once again felt the urge to vomit blood. She took several deep breaths.

Forget it. This body was originally hers, and the core was also cultivated by her. She could just cultivate it again.

Cultivate my ass! This body was already sixty years old. Without the core, she would instantly become an old woman! A sixty-year-old woman on the verge of death, how could she complete her missions?!

Her forehead throbbed, and she felt so agitated that she wanted to hit someone.

But strangely, perhaps because she had learned the truth, the core, which had always been quiet, suddenly became active.

"Your Excellency, True Dragon." Su Tang felt like she might have awakened Immortal Chu Yue, who was now clamoring to go home.

The True Dragon was confused. "What's wrong?"

Su Tang, "There's been a slight issue with my core."

She didn't elaborate, as an outsider, she couldn't possibly know so much. But the True Dragon could see, and the soul fragment on the core would also seek its owner. With the soul-summoning incense lit here and the True Dragon's heartfelt calls every two hours, the soul fragment finally sensed something and left.

The core had previously remained in her body, and although it was practically useless, it still had some effect. Now, not long after it left, she visibly aged.

Her skin began to wrinkle, her vision became cloudy, but the True Dragon clearly wasn't paying attention to her anymore because the core was moving towards the inner chamber.

That was where the Snake Woman slept.

The Snake Woman was above all else; the True Dragon wouldn't neglect her.

Su Tang sighed and struggled to find a chair to sit down. For the first time, she felt a sense of helplessness.

"Damn it…"

The System, having known her for so long, could easily guess what she was thinking and immediately said, "Don't even think about it. The last tasker was you. Unless this world completely collapses beyond saving, you're still the maintainer."

Su Tang thought about everyone at the Heavenly Sword Sect, and then about the True Dragon whom she had only recently met, and she shakily reached out a hand.

"Help me up. I think I can still be saved."

The System was a bit puzzled. "Kid, there's something I don't understand. Why didn't you tell him about the Clown Freak?"

Su Tang straightened up, and upon hearing this, she suddenly lowered her eyes. "The male lead killed the Yun family, but if the Clown Freak is a member of the Yun family, he'll fall into deep self-blame and conflict, and he won't know how to face it." She sighed again. The leaders of the Yun family deserved to die, but there were still many innocent people among them. They didn't deserve to die.

But did the innocent people of the Mo family deserve to die?

Just as she had said before, this debt… it simply couldn't be calculated.

"Old dog, what's the blackening value now?"

The System, "The current blackening value is 58%."

Su Tang, "Fine, if all else fails, I'll just drop another identity. I have to finish the mission."
