Chapter 420 New System Functions
"Then we should pay more attention. Perhaps there are some surprises waiting for us along the way," Su Siyi said with a soothing smile. She had complete faith in the system, convinced it wouldn't give such directions without reason. In her mind, the system was like a mysterious partner, each mission imbued with deeper meaning. Perhaps this winding route was meant to help them discover the surprises hidden deep within the forest.
"Well, then we should pay close attention to the situation on the road." Nangong Jingming nodded, his heart also full of anticipation. He knew very well that in this mysterious forest, any accident could happen, and what they had to do was to stay vigilant at all times and not miss any details.
"However, if Siyi is truly in great danger, you must remember to immediately enter the space and take shelter." Nangong Jingming, still worried, reminded her again. Although he knew that Su Siyi's cultivation had significantly improved after the battle with the Ji family and her strength should not be underestimated, the danger level of this forest was truly immeasurable. He did not want Su Siyi to fall into danger due to a momentary carelessness and regret it later.
"Don't worry! Even if there's danger, my cultivation is still very high and I can protect myself," Su Siyi said confidently. Recalling the fierce battle with the Ji family, she not only accumulated rich experience in actual combat, but also gained a clearer understanding of her own strength. She believed that with her current abilities, she was more than capable of handling any possible dangers in the forest.
"Brother Nangong, you are by my side. I believe you will not let me get hurt." Su Siyi raised her head, her eyes fixed on Nangong Jingming, her eyes full of trust and dependence. Her clear eyes were like a clear spring, reflecting Nangong Jingming's figure.
"Siyi, when you look at me like this, I feel like kissing you." Nangong Jingming's heart trembled at her bright and fiery gaze, and an irrepressible emotion spread in his heart. He stared at Su Siyi and felt that she was extremely cute at this moment, like a docile little deer, innocent and charming.
"You..." Su Siyi opened her mouth slightly, her cheeks flushed instantly. She turned her head away shyly, secretly complaining in her heart, do I need to say this idea out loud? If you want to kiss, can't you just do it directly?
As if he had seen through her thoughts, Nangong Jingming could no longer suppress his inner impulse. He slowly lowered his head and gently pressed his lips against the place that had haunted his dreams. Su Siyi had never expected that he would actually take action. She widened her eyes and looked at the face so close to her in surprise. At this moment, she could even clearly see Nangong Jingming's long eyelashes. They were like two small fans, trembling gently. Even when closed, it was difficult to hide their beautiful curves.
"Siyi, do I look good?" Nangong Jingming felt her staring gaze and a hint of shyness welled up in his heart. He slowly let her go and asked with a gentle smile on his lips.
"It looks good!" Su Siyi answered subconsciously, her voice as gentle as the spring breeze, with a hint of shyness that had not faded.
"Then when will you marry me? I will show you myself 24 hours a day, and I can also show you places that will attract you more." Nangong Jingming took her into his arms and whispered softly in her ear. His warm breath sprayed on her neck, causing her to feel numb.
"Are you proposing to me? Here in the wilderness, there's nothing here!" Su Siyi struggled slightly, feeling both angry and amused. She felt that something as important as proposing should be at least a little more formal, and it was too hasty in this dark forest.
"Okay, then this time doesn't count. When we get back, I will definitely give you a grand proposal ceremony." Nangong Jingming nodded quickly, his smile growing wider, his eyes full of longing for the future.
"No, who asked you to propose!" Su Siyi suddenly realized that she seemed to have fallen into Nangong Jingming's "trap" unknowingly. She slapped her head in annoyance, wondering why she had just followed his words.
"You're right, you didn't ask for a proposal, I asked for it myself." Seeing her annoyed look, Nangong Jingming quickly agreed with her, fearing that he would make her unhappy.
"I won't talk to you anymore!" Su Siyi glared at him angrily, struggled to break free from his arms, and ran forward like a frightened little rabbit.
Nangong Jingming looked at her back, smiled dotingly, and then quickly followed her.
The two of them played and joked along the way, happily making their way through the Black Forest. An hour later, they understood more and more why this forest was called the Black Forest. It was clearly daytime, but the forest was as dark as night.
"It's so dark now! I wonder what kind of trees these are? How come they're so big and thick? They're blocking out all the sunlight." Su Siyi tugged tightly at Nangong Jingming's clothes, a hint of fear in her eyes. She looked around, only to see the trees surrounding her were tall and sturdy, blocking out the sun. The dense branches and leaves overlapped, almost blocking out all the sunlight. A chilling aura followed her everywhere, giving her goose bumps.
"Let's turn on the lights and go!" Nangong Jingming noticed her fear and patted her hand gently, then turned on a flashlight. The dim light swayed in the darkness, barely illuminating the path ahead.
"Brother Nangong, please turn off the lights." After walking for half an hour, Su Siyi suddenly stopped and said nervously. Her eyes were fixed on the front, as if she had noticed something unusual.
"What's wrong?" Nangong Jingming was a little confused, but he turned off the lights without hesitation as she requested.
"Look, isn't there something glowing in front?" Su Siyi pointed to a place with a faint light in front, with a hint of excitement and curiosity in her voice.
"Let's go and take a look!" Nangong Jingming looked in the direction she pointed and also discovered the strange light.
The two approached the glowing light cautiously, taking every step with extreme caution, fearing to disturb the unknown creatures hidden in this mysterious forest. When they finally got closer, they found that the light was actually coming from a plant emitting a faint green light.
"Ding, lantern grass found, reward is a random gift package!" Just as Su Siyi's hand touched the plant, the system's crisp prompt sound suddenly rang out.
"What do you mean?" Su Siyi looked confused, her heart full of doubts. She had never expected that her sign-in system could have such a reward. Could it be that the system had been upgraded?
"Master, the system has been upgraded recently. If you find rare plants or precious things, you will be rewarded with random gift packages." The system seemed to notice her confusion and jumped out to explain in time.
"No wonder you didn't show up when I looked for you recently. It turns out you went to upgrade!" Su Siyi suddenly realized, and a hint of surprise surged in her heart.
