Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!-Chapter 599 - 547: Purification Tree Seeds! (Part 2)
Before leaving, Jia Lan ultimately couldn’t suppress the emotions of parting, stepped forward, and tightly embraced Shen Tang in his arms. His thin lips were close to her ear as he affectionately said, "Tangtang, I love you!"
At the same time, a system broadcast sounded in her mind—
[Congratulations to the host, Jia Lan’s affinity has skyrocketed, deeply in love at 99!]
Shen Tang, "Why is it stuck at 99? Didn’t it break through to a deep love of 100?"
She felt that Jia Lan already loved her to the extreme.
The dog system was also quite regretful, [Jia Lan’s love for the host is full, but unfortunately, Liu Ye hasn’t fallen in love with the host yet.]
Shen Tang was utterly puzzled, "What does this have to do with Liu Ye?"
The system regretted, [Although the two are vastly different personalities, in the end, they are both split from one entity, and Liu Ye is also part of the main body.]
[Either completely eliminate the other personality or have Jia Lan and Liu Ye both fall in love with the host to reach a deep love of 100.]
Shen Tang was filled with confusion, remembering Liu Ye’s disdainful attitude towards females! 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
He considered a female’s love to be hypocritical and contemptible, and even though he had so many concubines in the original work, it was only for satisfying personal desires and progeny, without investing any genuine feelings towards those females. If they slightly annoyed him, he would kill them without hesitation.
Even in the original work, when Liu Ye fell in love with Shen Qingli, that wasn’t her.
Shen Tang shook her head; making Liu Ye, that damn merman, fall in love with her was simply impossible in this world; it would be easier just to kill that dog man!
Unfortunately, he couldn’t be found now.
Forget it, stop thinking about it.
As long as Jia Lan could remain safe and sound, she would be content.
Jia Lan personally sent an envoy to escort them away.
The priest couldn’t leave the Divine Hall without permission.
He stood tall and straight, standing at the entrance of the palace, gazing into the distance where that familiar beautiful figure disappeared from view, never showing any intention to leave for a long time.
A servant walked over to remind him, "Master, we should head back now."
Jia Lan looked at the even darker sea area beyond, as if covered in ink, filled with an ominous aura of death. His eyes darkened as he received the Divine Staff handed over by the servant and turned to the main hall.
He had more important things to do.
...
After returning to the Imperial Palace of the Night Glow Empire, Shen Tang called Hu Yun over, "How have things been domestically over this past half month?"
The young man respectfully replied, "Rest assured, Your Majesty, no major incidents have occurred recently in the Empire. On the rebellion side, they have kept their promise and haven’t broken the agreement to start another war."
Shen Tang was somewhat surprised by the rebellion’s compliance, "Not even once?"
Hu Yun, "Many of those who joined the rebel army were notorious beastmen, and they had secretly harassed the borders as they were unhappy with the upper orders. But I heard that their leader directly executed them, and the deaths were quite miserable, serving as a warning. After that, no one dared to harass anymore!"
He scratched his head, puzzled, "It’s truly baffling; it’s like the rebel army suddenly became someone else. Did they really find their conscience and abandon evil for good?"
Shen Tang felt somewhat complex, recalling Necro.
He actually kept his promise.
Hu Yun worriedly said, "Now, with the Empire growing stronger day by day, the neighboring countries dare not attack recklessly. However, the spread of the contaminated land hasn’t improved. If this trends continue, most of the Empire might be devoured in a few years."
The system reminded, [Host, the reward for "discovering the pollution secret" has been issued to the system backpack. As long as the Purification Tree Seeds are planted, the land can be purified to prevent the spread of contaminated land!]
Shen Tang took out the Purification Tree Seeds.
A half-palm-sized red-brown seed, with some seemingly artificially carved dark patterns on it, but were actually naturally formed, looking very beautiful.
"You mean this little thing can purify contaminated land?" Xiao Jin took the seed from her hand, squinting his golden eyes for a long time, seeing nothing unusual.
"Female Master, is this also something given by that system?" Lu Xiao looked at Shen Tang.
Shen Tang nodded.
Xue Yinzhou frowned, "What exactly is the origin of this system?"
That was also what Lu Xiao and Shen Li wanted to know.
If these seeds could indeed purify contaminated land, they would have to carefully consider what this so-called system’s origins were to produce such treasures?
The dog system, seemingly sensing the murderous intent from the beast husbands, nearly cried out in fear, [Host, save me. I’m really a good boy, boo hoo!]
Shen Tang, also somewhat at a loss, smiled, "To be honest, I don’t know where it comes from either. I’ve asked it before, it’s just a tool for issuing tasks and doesn’t know its origins."
"But at least for now, everything the system has given me is useful and meant to help me... If not for the system’s assistance, I might not be alive today."
She could not refuse the system’s help.
The beast husbands, listening to her words of helplessness, felt a sour feeling in their hearts, realizing how difficult her journey had been.
If only they had fallen in love with her and protected her earlier.
Xue Yinzhou, recalling his past actions, was extremely guilt-ridden, also realizing that her miraculous escape from death on the cliff was likely due to the system.
In that sense, he should thank the system, as his gloomy killing intent slightly subsided.
Shen Li was also curious about whether the Purification Tree Seeds were as miraculous as claimed. Though he had delayed his return to the Yiyuan Empire, he decided to stay a little longer to observe the situation.
Anyway, the situation in the Yiyuan Empire was stabilizing, with a double and Qiu Yang watching over things, he didn’t need to keep an eye on it daily.
The Imperial City Ruins, once desolate, had completely transformed, with lush mountains and forests everywhere, and the newly dug river channels flowing with clear water that hadn’t completely frozen over in winter. You could still see many river fish swimming around.
Everywhere you looked, there were beastmen bustling around,
and people building simple stone houses along the river, living there with their families.
As the environment here improved, many animals came, including common herbivores like birds, sparrows, rabbits, and deer, as well as carnivores with stronger attacks like wild boars, wolves, and jackals.
Yet, the overall number of animals in this area was still relatively low, still in a protective stage, and hunting was not allowed.
Luo Fei and the others had to go to more distant places to hunt every time.
