Chapter 228 Finally, she succeeded!
Two major events occurred in Lingzhou Prefecture, both related to the Cao family.
The first thing—
In order to secure a share of the salt transport business, Cao, the head of the family, arranged for his only biological son, who was mentally challenged, to marry Yin Rou, a girl from the Yin family's shipping business.
The people of Lingzhou dared not say anything about Chief Cao openly, but behind his back they all said that Chief Cao had abandoned his only biological child for profit, and that he was ruthless towards his own family.
As more people talked about it, the Cao family members also felt that if the head of the Cao family could treat his only son that way, he might treat them the same way. They also developed a greater sense of fear and wariness towards the head of the Cao family.
The second big thing is a bit strange—
The head of the Cao family expelled Cao Kai, whom he had been raising for nearly ten years, from the Cao family. He also said that there would be no place for Cao Kai in the Cao family in the future, and Cao Kai would no longer be Cao Yun's acting young master.
Cao Kai naturally refused and made a scene on the spot. He fell ill at the Cao family's doorstep.
The moment Cao Kai was expelled from the Cao family and could no longer continue the main quest, the system determined that Cao Kai was useless and immediately imposed an electric shock punishment.
Cao Kai, who had just started convulsing, immediately took out the painkillers Xia Mo had given him and swallowed them. Once the pain subsided, he completely ignored the electric shock punishment from the live streaming system.
That is, at this moment—
The live stream system switched from the light screen to the mission interface. The main mission, "Plundering Fortune," had its progress drop from 47% to 13%.
Upon checking the live stream, the system found that only thirteen points of luck had been plundered from Yin Rou. Immediately, disregarding the waste of resources, the system intensified the electric shock punishment on Cao Kai.
The human body's resistance to electric shock is limited; once it exceeds a certain critical point, death is the only outcome.
The live-streaming system program in Cao Kai's mind exhibited an emotional fluctuation similar to "anger," and recklessly used a large amount of energy to shock Cao Kai.
Cao Kai felt the pain and immediately took another painkiller.
Having taken too many painkillers, Cao Kai became numb to the pain of the electric shocks. He didn't even notice the burning smell coming from his body. Instead, on the way to watch, people stopped to watch the strange scene.
Cao Kai felt embarrassed when he saw others watching him, but he didn't notice that smoke was coming out of his head.
Among the onlookers were children.
A child's innocent voice rang out, saying, "I smell a delicious aroma of meat. Mom and Dad, I want to eat meat."
The child was unaware that he would be afraid to eat meat for a long time before that.
Cao Kai turned to leave, but his body gave way and he collapsed with a thud.
Cao Kai realized something was wrong and lay on the ground pleading, "Help..."
As soon as Cao Kaigang cried out for help, his body spontaneously combusted! The aroma of meat turned into the smell of burning, and thick black smoke billowed into the sky.
"what--"
"Ah..."
"..."
The onlookers screamed in terror.
Cao Kai's eyes widened, and without much struggle, he had already died.
After the live-streaming system in Cao Kai's mind killed the host, he didn't feel there was anything wrong with it.
The live-streaming system in Cao Kai's mind was in the form of a nanometer-sized ant, and the ant-shaped live-streaming system finally emerged from Cao Kai's body.
The Ant Live Streaming System, accompanied by black smoke, detached from Cao Kai's body and floated in the air like a speck of dust, waiting for an opportunity to find another host.
The crowd scattered in shock at Cao Kai's death, and besides, the live stream was too small for anyone to notice.
Disguised as a maid, Xia Mo mingled among the fleeing crowd, deliberately muttering, "I need to get back to Miss Yin as soon as possible..."
The Ant Live Streaming system detected a usable tool and decisively pursued Xia Mo, who was disguised as a maid.
Disguised as a maid, Xia Mo panicked and blended into the fleeing crowd, showing no trace of acting.
The Ant Live Streaming System didn't detect any unusual fluctuations and went straight into Xia Mo's mind, who was disguised as a maid.
As Xia Mo, feigning panic and fleeing, sensed the movement of the Ant Live system, she couldn't suppress her excitement, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.
When the Ant Live Streaming System passed through Xia Mo's skull, it sensed the skull's hardness, which far exceeded that of ordinary people (it was unlike the bone hardness that humans could possess). It needed to use more energy to penetrate Xia Mo's skull.
The Ant Live Streaming System immediately realized that Xia Mo might be a special human in this world.
The Ant Live Streaming system was completely unaware of the danger; in fact, it became even more excited.
It's about to do something amazing!
The live-streaming system, mimicking an ant, excitedly burrowed into Xia Mo's brain, then directly into the soul power web that Xia Mo had woven for it.
Soul power is far superior to divine consciousness!
A wisp of soul power is far more powerful than a hundred times the power of divine sense!
However, soul power has its drawbacks. The laws of this world restrict the existence of soul power without a physical body.
Even if her soul is exceptionally powerful, if she were to live in this world in her soul form, she could only live for a few hundred years.
In other words, Xia Mo can only use her soul power within her own body.
The live-streaming system, disguised as an ant, barged into the heart of the most powerful force at the end of summer.
When the Ant Live Streaming system discovered that it couldn't attach to the nerves in Xia Mo's brain in the same way it attached to Cao Kai's brain, its program fluctuated violently and displayed the word "malfunction".
After three failed attempts to attach itself, the Ant Live Streaming System realized that it might have been captured by a special ability of this world!
The ant-shaped live-streaming system activated its self-destruct program, intending to explode directly inside Xia Mo's mind.
but……
When the Ant Live system popped up "self-destruct loading progress 99%", it was discovered that the self-destruct loading directly dropped to "0".
The live-streaming system, mimicking the shape of an ant, panicked and tried to escape the mind of late summer.
With a thought, Xia Mo used his powerful soul force to pull the live streaming system into his soul space.
The ant-shaped live-streaming system was shocked to discover that it had completely lost contact with the outside world!
The program in the ant-shaped live streaming system didn't teach it what to do in this situation. So, the ant-shaped live streaming system floated motionless in the air, like a real speck of dust.
Xia Mo used her divine sense to look at the live streaming system in her soul space, and a pleased smile appeared on her lips.
She'd been wanting to capture an alien intruder for a long time!
Finally, she succeeded!
With Cao Kai dead, the invading live-streaming system was completely trapped in Xia Mo's soul space. All the luck plundered by the invading live-streaming system left the system and returned to Yin Rou.
Although Yin Rou couldn't sense the return of her good fortune, she could feel that things were going more and more smoothly for her lately.
Disguised as a maid, Xia Mo successfully handed over the guards sent by Huangfu Qian to protect Yin Rou, and she could leave!
Hehe, after being away from home for more than a month, she can finally go home and visit!
I wonder how my parents are doing.
