Chapter 52: Cruel Prince

Cruel Prince 1

After Tang Yitong lost his life, Tang Wan looked at his blood-covered face with reddened eyes and muttered softly, “Honey... goodbye.”

So this was how painful it felt to part with someone you loved...

Seeing her like this, the little cutie hurriedly comforted her. “Don’t be sad, Host! Since this husband is gone, we’ll just find you another one! If you cry every time someone dies, won’t you cry yourself to death sooner or later?”

Tang Wan: “...”

Her sadness shattered instantly because of this little guy.

She really didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

After that, the little cutie quickly said, “Host, prepare to leave the mission world!”

A moment later, after a wave of dizziness, Tang Wan’s consciousness returned to the familiar pure white space.

“Now beginning emotional separation from the host!”

Soon, Tang Wan felt her memories of Tang Yitong gradually becoming blurry, until only a vague silhouette remained.

Not long after, a crystal sphere appeared before her.

“Alright, Host, let’s head to the next mission world!” the little cutie said cheerfully.

Tang Wan stared blankly for a moment before quickly returning to normal, as though the heartache and sorrow she had felt earlier had only been an illusion.

“Mm! Let’s go!” she replied with a nod.

...

“Space-time shuttle activated... Suitable energy body detected. Dropping... Transfer successful!”

As the cute mechanical voice faded, Tang Wan regained consciousness.

The next moment, a thick smell of blood rushed into her nose.

When she opened her eyes, she saw several eunuchs and palace maids on the ground ahead of her, their bodies brutally dismembered.

Tang Wan had never witnessed such a horrifying scene before. She immediately suppressed the nausea churning in her stomach while beginning to receive the world’s storyline.

“Plot reception complete! The target of this mission is to capture the villain Feng Qitong and prevent him from slaughtering Zhao Kingdom’s two hundred thousand soldiers!” the little cutie announced.

After hearing this, Tang Wan instantly felt immense pressure.

This mission was far more difficult than the novice one.

“Little Cutie... did you do this on purpose? Why is this world even scarier than the last one?” Tang Wan asked weakly.

Those miserable corpses on the ground had obviously been killed by the villainous prince, Feng Qitong.

Could she really”attack”—no, win over—someone this terrifying?

At least Tang Yitong had once shown signs of redemption, but the villain in this world was a cold-blooded, violent, war-loving murderer!

Forget influencing him—she might get killed just for brushing against the corner of his sleeve!

Where was the “perfect husband” she was promised?

She wanted to cry.

...

Hearing Tang Wan’s complaint, the little cutie felt somewhat guilty too, but quickly said, “Host, don’t worry! Look at his appearance first! Just his face and figure alone are worth taking the risk for! I’m not lying!”

Tang Wan silently twitched her lips.

Was she really the kind of shallow person who only cared about looks?

Still, she cautiously and curiously raised her eyes to look toward the man not far away.

At that moment, Feng Qitong was lazily reclining against a wide chair. His expression was indifferent as he accepted a handkerchief from an attendant and slowly wiped the blood from his sword, as though he had merely crushed a few ants to death.

Tang Wan was instantly slapped in the face by reality.

Because after just one glance, she nearly stared at him in a daze.

Fine!

She admitted it!

She really was someone who cared about appearances!

But who could blame her when this man was so ridiculously handsome that people couldn’t even find flaws in him?

His facial features were exceptionally exquisite, his profile flawless from every angle, and his imposing aura naturally commanded reverence. In all her memories, she could hardly think of a man better-looking than him.

At that moment, Feng Qitong suddenly lifted his eyes and looked toward Tang Wan.

His gaze was cold and sharp—

—and met directly with her stunned expression.
