Upon receiving the signal, Mo Xiyuan was speechless, and the corner of her mouth twitched involuntarily.
On the other side, Nan Xiao nodded upon hearing this.
He took a few steps closer to Nan Xunran and whispered, "Ran'er, hold back your strength, don't kill anyone."
His eyes gleamed with a deep, unfathomable light, revealing the shrewdness of someone who had experienced the ways of the world.
He secretly pondered: After this assassination attempt, Mo Xiyuan will surely become the future Palace Master of the Golden Flame Palace, so there's no need to antagonize her.
She has no ill intentions and is clearly in love with Ran'er, so we might as well make good use of her.
Nan Xunran, and then replied with a soft "Mm."
A relieved smile appeared on Nan Xiao's face. He then turned and left with Mo Quan.
After the two left, only silence remained.
Mo Xiyuan's gaze involuntarily drifted towards Nan Xunran in the distance.
She opened and closed her mouth, as if a thousand words were swirling on the tip of her tongue, but then swallowed them back down.
She was so embarrassed she practically dug a castle out of the ground with her toes, trying to ease her inner tension with this little gesture.
A gentle breeze stirred Mo Xiyuan's heartstrings.
She stood there, her hair fluttering in the wind, a hint of unease in her eyes.
She pursed her lips, raised her eyes, looked at Nan Xunran, and began to start a conversation. "Divine Son Xunran."
Upon Nan Xunran turned his head, his gaze settling peacefully on her, and replied, "Mm."
Mo Xiyuan's heart skipped a beat. After a moment's hesitation, she asked, "Do you know Hou Qingnuo?"
Nan Xunran shook his head indifferently, his silver hair swaying with his movement.
Mo Xiyuan was taken aback and subconsciously asked, "You don't recognize him?"
Her body involuntarily leaned forward, getting closer and closer to Nan Xunran, trying to glean more information from his expression.
Nan Xunran frowned slightly. "What?"
Mo Xiyuan quickly waved her hand, forcing a stiff smile, and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing."
At this moment, her heart was in turmoil, with all sorts of thoughts colliding with each other.
Nan Xunran doesn't even recognize Hou Qingnuo, the main character?
The main storyline has already begun, yet they still haven't met!
Why was Hou Qingnuo so determined to kill Nan Xunran?
To label someone an enemy without ever having met them?
This is absolutely outrageous!
The game's plot is so flexible that some parts are completely inexplicable!
Beside him, an invisible fluctuation suddenly flashed past Nan Xunran.
Immediately afterwards, a series of messages appeared before his eyes.
[Hou Qingnuo, the Child of Destiny, has been detected]
[The second young master of the Hou Family, the protagonist of the Shenglong Game]
[Mid-stage Void God Realm]
[Master: Earth-Splitting Venerable (Soul State)]
[Heaven’s Mandate Points: 4000/4000 points]
[Danger Level: 0.0000001%]
[Availability: Low]
[Current favorability: -45 points]
The System Light Orb's voice, tinged with confusion, drifted into his ear. "Host, this Child of Destiny has never seen you before, yet for some reason harbors deep hostility towards you!"
After a pause, it speculated, "It's most likely a game setting."
"Ever since the problem occurred, the game's storyline has become disjointed."
Nan Xunran narrowed his eyes slightly, "Why is the game's storyline disjointed?"
The System Light Orb paused for a moment, as if organizing its thoughts, before slowly saying, "Because of you."
"Your presence has disrupted the game's flow; many key characters have been killed by you, naturally halting the plot's progression."
Nan Xunran chuckled softly after hearing this.
On the other side, Mo Xiyuan's expression suddenly changed drastically.
A flicker of panic crossed her eyes. She lightly touched the ground with her toes, and her hands involuntarily waved wildly in the air.
Her head bobbed back and forth as she said urgently, "That... that... Divine Son Xunran!"
Nan Xunran his attention back to her and asked, "What is it?"
Mo Xiyuan hurriedly clasped her hands together, blinked her eyes, and pleaded, "I might faint later, please don't leave me here."
Nan Xunran looked at her like this and nodded in response, "Mm."
Mo Xiyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Her gaze remained fixed on what was in front of her, where game prompts were flashing wildly.
"Sizzle... sizzle..."
[Player's login time has been too long in the last two days]
[You will be forced to log out in three seconds]
[3]
[2]

[...]
The next instant, without any warning, Mo Xiyuan felt her legs suddenly go weak, as if all her strength had been drained away.
Immediately afterwards, everything went black, and her body plummeted straight down.
In the moments before her consciousness faded, her mind was filled with rage and nothing but curses.
"This game is awful!"
"I'm not a minor, why are you restricting my gaming time?!"
"I'm going to report you!!"
