So much had happened that day that Su Ling’s sleep was restless that night.
‘Where am I…?’
Su Ling looked at the familiar surroundings and murmured to herself.
It was Earth.
However, unlike before, she could clearly feel that the scene of Earth before her eyes was fake.
She wandered through the familiar campus and saw her old classmates, a sour feeling rising in her heart.
The people passing by seemed unable to see her.
She was like a ghost, passing through them one after another.
She saw her mentor, Jiang Yin.
“You wanted to keep me here before, so you made her my girlfriend, right?”
Su Ling sighed.
She had figured out many things.
Previously, she thought the Original Owner had used her own body to win over Jiang Yin, but now she realized that Jiang Yin was her mentor.
The woman had her own pride; how could she have been so easily won over?
Behind her, a figure identical to her stood there.
“Yes.”
Su Ling turned around and looked at the person with the exact same appearance as her.
A look of realization flashed in her eyes.
“The Original Owner?”
“Heh, it seems you’re living quite a comfortable life using my body,” the Original Owner said with a sinister smile.
However, her eyes were filled with malice and jealousy.
A dead end that had been completely unsolvable in her eyes had actually been resolved by Su Ling.
“It was just good luck.”
It was true.
If it hadn’t been for good luck, how could that debt of five million or so have been paid off?
Su Ling smiled faintly.
“Don’t forget, you said with your own mouth that I could use your body however I wanted.”
“You bitch!” the Original Owner spat.
Su Ling simply shrugged.
It didn’t matter.
She could call her whatever she wanted; at least she had protected Miao Miao and her mother.
“Go ahead and use that rotten body, you slut who everyone’s ridden.”
“Aren’t you just insulting yourself?”
Su Ling was somewhat speechless.
The Original Owner was a lunatic.
Her intelligence also seemed a bit off.
“Also, I haven’t settled the score with you yet.”
At that moment, Su Ling’s expression suddenly darkened.
She took a step forward, and the surrounding scenery instantly shattered, turning into a pure white space.
“You intended to sell Miao Miao before, didn’t you?”
“So what if I did? Don’t forget, she’s my sister, not yours! I can do whatever I want with her!”
The Original Owner roared frantically.
By now, Su Ling had walked up to her, her face as cold as frost.
*Slap!*
A crisp sound of a slap echoed in the pure white space.
The Original Owner clutched her face in disbelief.
She screamed crazily.
“You trash! You dare hit me!”
“Don’t think you’re invincible just because you broke through **[The Confusion]**! I’m telling you, I am the only one who can be the Empress! You’re just a tool I’m using to break the Four Calamities!”
*Slap!*
Another slap.
Confusion, Four Calamities, Empress—she was just babbling nonsense.
Regardless, Su Ling was swinging left and right now, and it felt great.
The Original Owner was beaten until she scrambled away with her head in her hands, her mouth still spewing vitriol.
“Ahhh! You bitch! How dare you!”
At that moment, a certain existence seemed unable to watch any longer, and the surrounding scene suddenly splintered.
The ground beneath Su Ling’s feet broke apart, and she felt a sensation of extreme weightlessness.
The Original Owner stood at the edge of the hole, looking down at the falling Su Ling with malice.
“Why don’t you just kill her already!”
**[The time has not yet come]**
“What do you mean the time hasn’t come? I am the future Empress; you promised me yourself! I don’t care! That trash, that bitch—you have to torture her severely for me!”
“Heh, doesn’t she want to be ridden by ten thousand men? Fine, let **[Humiliation]** torture her ruthlessly!”
**[…]**
“Don’t forget, we are one. If she becomes the Empress, heh, you know our fate better than I do, Oez,” the Original Owner laughed sinisterly.
Oez suppressed the urge to strike this creature dead.
After all, this thing was something He had created with His own hands.
When Su Yao was preparing to implement that plan, He had fabricated this will, seizing the original will’s place since the moment of Hatching.
He had thought the original will had been completely wiped out, but to His surprise, over the past twenty years, the will that should have been erased would occasionally reappear.
Truth be told, He had been somewhat panicked at the time.
It was the first time He had seen such a powerful will.
To completely trap that will, He extracted its memories and built a fake world for it called Earth.
Earth truly existed, but what Su Ling didn’t know was that she had been repeating those twenty years of life on Earth over and over again within a playground carefully constructed by the Hive Mind.
Su Ling had completely fallen for it; she had entirely forgotten her identity as a Witch.
As long as nothing unexpected happened, Su Ling would be completely trapped in that fake Earth, never to escape.
But that idiot!
That idiot had absolutely no resistance to pressure.
Seeing that her family owed so much money and people were coming to the door every day to collect debts, that idiot actually collapsed!
When that idiot learned that Su Ling was living a comfortable life on the fake Earth, she actually grew jealous.
Are you serious, lady?
He had almost been laughed into a rage at the time.
He had maintained that illusory bubble every single moment for twenty years, and this idiot was jealous?
Then, while He wasn’t paying attention, this idiot recited the Zerg Forbidden Curse and pulled Su Ling back into her original body!
He had also completely broken down.
A pig of a teammate!
A complete pig of a teammate!
That idiot had even started living like a local tyrant in the Earth simulation, hitting on beautiful mentors and spending every day eating, drinking, and gambling.
She was having the time of her life.
Fortunately, a bottle of a Great Witch’s wine had sent Su Ling’s consciousness into a slumber, allowing Him to forcibly swap Su Ling and that idiot back.
Su Ling was fine, but the idiot was the one who collapsed first.
It just so happened that the debt collectors arrived, and that idiot actually tried to sell Bai Miao.
This directly triggered Su Ling’s underlying code.
Su Ling had actually broken through His layers of blockades on her own and returned directly to her original body!
For the first time, He was shocked and, simultaneously, felt a deep sense of fear.
Su Ling was definitely not someone He could control!
To that end, He seized the opportunity a second time to drag Su Ling back to Earth.
This time, He directly activated the first calamity, **[The Confusion]**.
He wanted to use Su Ling’s original mother from Earth to restrain her.
However, He hadn’t expected those damned Imperial Guards to shatter all of His plans.
He felt an unprecedented rage.
Why?
Why was nothing going according to His plan?
He was the Insect Hive, the supreme existence of the Zerg.
The Zerg were His most obedient puppets.
Why!
What drove Him most mad was that Su Ling had relied on herself to break through **[The Confusion]**.
And the reason was absolutely ridiculous.
Love.
Su Ling stopped obsessing over who she truly was; she realized that she only needed to love her family.
No, what era is this?
How can such an absurd reason even exist!
This isn’t how you’re supposed to play with the Four Calamities!
You should be struggling in agony within them; you should be constantly questioning yourself and wandering in hesitation, then seek His help and surrender to Him.
That was how you were supposed to clear the Four Calamities.
He was tired.
He looked at the idiot He had created with His own hands—the one who was supposed to replace Su Ling but was currently spewing trash talk—and wished He could kick her to death.
There was nothing He could do.
He had fabricated this idiot Himself, so He had to deal with the consequences.
He looked toward the falling Su Ling and sighed softly.
“Enjoy the taste of **[Humiliation]**.”
