Qin Dynasty: They've all turned into zombies, what's there to fear about a rebellion?

The copper wire with the yellow talisman attached and the eerie red light flickering was like a venomous snake leading to the unknown, slowly approaching Xiaomeng's brow.

Xiaomeng instinctively held her breath, her long eyelashes trembling violently like the wings of a startled butterfly. She wanted to dodge, to draw her sword, to use "World Loses Color" to freeze this frivolous man into an ice sculpture.

But Su Ming's dark eyes were like two bottomless whirlpools, firmly sucking into her soul.

"Relax, don't resist."

Su Ming's voice was deep and magnetic, like a wicked doctor coaxing a child to get a shot, "This is high-tech. If you resist, the signal will easily get scrambled. I won't be responsible if you end up as an idiot."

"you……"

Just as Xiaomeng was about to curse, the cold copper wire tip touched her smooth forehead.

"Sizzle—"

A cold, slippery current, yet carrying a strange, tingling sensation, instantly burrowed into her consciousness through her brow.

That's not just the aura of corpses.

That was a "data deluge" specially created by Su Ming using the system.

In an instant, Xiaomeng felt a darkness before her eyes, followed by a flood of green characters, jumping code, and rotating models rushing into her mind like a burst dam.

"ah--"

Xiaomeng couldn't help but let out a short gasp, her body trembled violently, her legs went weak, and she involuntarily fell into Su Ming's arms.

With lightning speed, Su Ming grabbed her slender waist, while his other hand remained firmly pressed against the copper wire, not daring to loosen his grip even slightly.

"Hold on! This is an assault of knowledge! A baptism of truth!"

Su Ming roared in her ear, his hot breath spraying onto her sensitive earlobe, sending shivers down her spine.

To onlookers, the scene was simply unbearable to watch.

In the dimly lit alchemy room, a lone man and woman embraced tightly. The man's face was flushed with passion, while the woman's body trembled, her eyes were glazed, and she occasionally let out a few intriguing moans.

"Ugh...it feels so full...something's come in..."

Xiaomeng closed her eyes, her brows furrowed, and her hands unconsciously gripped Su Ming's clothes tightly.

She felt like her mind was about to explode. Those strange symbols, those never-before-seen images, were frantically raping her perception and reshaping her worldview.

It hurts, but it's also pleasurable.

This kind of spiritual communication is more profound, more direct, and also more... shameful than physical contact.

"Is this... spiritual communion?"

Xiaomeng was in a daze when she realized that the pure Taoist energy within her body had been assimilated by the domineering corpse energy, becoming more condensed and profound.

And on the ruins not far away.

Wei Zhuang carried the still-burning chainsaw sword, looking on with an expression of anticipation.

"Tsk tsk tsk."

He shook his head and said to Shao Siming, who was equally dumbfounded beside him, "Look, this is your Grand Preceptor's 'scientific research.' This isn't preaching; it's clearly flirting."

Shao Siming didn't speak, but the few leaves that were originally floating in her hand were crushed to pieces with a "snap".

She stared intently at the hand Su Ming had wrapped around Xiao Meng's waist; if her eyes could shoot daggers, Su Ming would have turned into a hedgehog by now.

"alright!"

Just as Xiaomeng felt she was about to faint from "data overload," Su Ming suddenly pulled out the copper wire.

"call……"

Xiaomeng's body went limp, collapsing completely into Su Ming's arms, panting heavily. Her face, which had been as pale as snow, was now as red as a ripe apple, and even her translucent earlobes were tinged with rouge.

"What...it's all the aura of corpses?"

Xiaomeng weakly raised her head, looking at Su Ming with resentful eyes, "This isn't data, it's clearly... you're just forcing your anger on me!"

"You just don't understand."

Su Ming chuckled, released her hand, and even straightened her disheveled collar. "The corpse energy is just a carrier, like a delivery guy's electric scooter. The important thing is the cargo on it! How about it? Can you feel something new in your head?"

Xiaomeng closed her eyes and felt it.

The next second, she suddenly opened her eyes, and a stream of green data flashed in her pupils!

Name: Xiaomeng

Race: Human (Slightly zombified)

[Realm: Harmony between Man and Nature (Data Progress 1%)]

[Skill: The World Loses Its Color (Upgradeable to 'Holographic Projection Field')]

"this……"

Xiaomeng was stunned.

She could clearly "see" every detail of her body, the flow of her meridians, the flow of her vital energy, and even the frequency of her heartbeat became precise numbers!

This absolute sense of self-control is even stronger than her ten years of arduous training!

"What...what kind of evil magic is this?"

Xiaomeng was shocked, but she refused to admit it. She shoved Su Ming away, staggered back two steps, and cried out in utter shame and indignation, "You actually put this weird thing in my head! You...you're shameless!"

"What kind of evil magic? This is called the system panel! It's a cheat code bestowed upon you!"

Su Ming rolled his eyes. "So many people beg me to install these for them, and I wouldn't even do it! You're getting a good deal and you're still acting innocent?"

Just as the two were struggling, one filled with shame and indignation, the other righteously asserting her position.

"Hahaha! Excellent! Excellent tactic!"

A hearty and domineering laugh suddenly came from the broken gate.

Everyone turned around and looked.

Ying Zheng, dressed in a black dragon robe, strode in, surrounded by a group of civil and military officials. His green, corpse-like eyes swept over Su Ming and Xiao Meng, finally settling on Xiao Meng's still flushed face, where he gave her a "I am very pleased" smile.

"The Imperial Advisor is indeed formidable!"

Ying Zheng clapped his hands heavily and pointed at Xiaomeng, saying, "I was worried that this little girl from the Heavenly Sect would be a tough nut to crack. I didn't expect that she would be subdued by the Imperial Advisor in such a short time!"

"Look at that complexion, look at those eyes... tsk tsk, Imperial Advisor, you've worked hard, you've worked hard!"

As Ying Zheng spoke, he winked at Li Si and the others behind him.

Li Si and his gang of old foxes understood immediately, stroking their beards and smiling knowingly.

"Congratulations, Imperial Preceptor! Congratulations, Imperial Preceptor!"

"The Imperial Preceptor is truly awe-inspiring! He can even subdue the leader of the Heavenly Sect. He is indeed the Casanova of our Great Qin!"

"That's great! The Taoist Heavenly Sect is practically our Qin's 'in-law' now!"

Xiaomeng: "..."

Looking at this group of Qin rulers and ministers whose minds were filled with lewd nonsense, she felt a surge of heat rush to her head and almost fainted on the spot.

Take it down?

Casanova?

relatives by marriage?

What are these people thinking?!

"No! You've misunderstood!"

Xiaomeng stamped her feet in frustration, pointing at Su Ming as she tried to explain, "He...he only transmitted some energy to me! We were discussing the Dao! We were discussing the Dao!"

"I understand, I understand."

Ying Zheng waved his hand, adopting a tolerant demeanor as if to say, "We've all been there, so how can a discussion be considered in-depth if it doesn't escalate to the bedroom? Master Xiaomeng, there's no need to be shy. Now that you've become the Imperial Preceptor's woman, you're my sister-in-law. From now on, you can walk sideways in Xianyang Palace!"

"puff--"

Su Ming almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Sister-in-law?

Your Majesty, has your ability to fill in the blanks evolved as well?

"Your Majesty! It's not what you think!" Su Ming cried out in despair, "It's a misunderstanding! A purely academic misunderstanding!"

"Alright, alright, stop explaining."

Ying Zheng ignored him completely, waving his hand dismissively, "Issue my decree! Grand Preceptor Su Ming has rendered meritorious service in subduing the Daoist Tianzong sect for Great Qin, and shall be rewarded...rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold! Furthermore, have someone prepare the side hall next to the alchemy room for Master Xiaomeng...oh no, for the Grand Preceptor's wife to reside in!"

"Furthermore, prepare a banquet tonight! I wish to welcome the Imperial Preceptor and Master Xiaomeng back!"

"Um... remember to tell the imperial kitchen to prepare more oysters and tiger penis for the Imperial Preceptor to nourish his body."
