Chapter 118: The ‘Fickle’ [king of involution system]

At this moment…

The System notification sounds in Li Changsheng's mind crackled and popped non-stop, like firecrackers…

"Ding… Ding… Ding… Dong!

Ding… Ding… Ding… Dong!

System's required energy has reached its limit!

System upgrading…

System upgrade successful!

Ding… Ding… Ding… Dong!

Ding… Ding… Ding… Dong!

System's required energy has reached its limit!

System upgrading…

System upgrade successful!

Ding… Ding… Ding… Dong!

…"

After an unknown number of chimes…

The System notifications finally quieted down slowly…

Li Changsheng stood frozen on the spot, letting out a long breath. After a long while, he finally recovered…

At this moment, Li Changsheng looked at the System interface again.

He saw a string of suffixes added to the System's name…

Li Changsheng couldn't help but read the name slowly: '[king of involution system] +99!'

Looking at the System interface in his mind, which was shining with golden light and was even a bit glaring, Li Changsheng muttered in disbelief, 'This… this… this is too ridiculous!'

At the same time…

Standing to the side, Li He looked at Li Changsheng, who was clutching his chest and gasping for breath, and couldn't help but mutter in confusion, 'Does… does this guy… have asthma?

It shouldn't be contagious, right?'

Just as Li He slowly backed away to put some distance between himself and Li Changsheng…

A voice rang out in Li He's mind!

"Hehehe!

Honored Host, you are overthinking it!

Li Changsheng's state is eighty percent likely because he was shocked by the changes in his System!

Although I only gave that low-level System a tiny sliver of my Origin energy, who am I?

I am the top-tier System in the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, one that has upgraded a whopping 17,008 times!

Just a random leak of energy from between my toes is enough to feed those low-level Systems to their fill, with plenty to spare!

Li Changsheng's System is probably laughing its head off right now!

After all, involution-type Systems don't upgrade easily!

Unlike me, who can just snap my fingers and go around robbing…

Pah, pah, pah—I mean, go to the Myriad Realms System Alliance Center to upgrade and advance!"

Hearing the System's smug voice, Li He couldn't help but roll his eyes at it…

At the same time…

Li Changsheng's [king of involution system] was currently…

going wild!

Just a second ago, the [king of involution system] had been sneering at Li Changsheng's actions and strongly condemning them.

Now, it was spamming a message across the System interface at a rapid speed…

Without exception, the entire System interface was filled uniformly with: [Go hug his thigh right now!!!! If you don't, I will!!!! If you still don't go, I'll run away and do it myself!!!!! Go hug his thigh right now!!!!]

At this moment… a storm raged in Li Changsheng's heart!

Looking at the System interface in his mind, Li Changsheng couldn't help but marvel, 'It really has to be you, System!

Don't call yourself the [king of involution system] anymore. Why don't you just rename yourself to the [King of Face-Changing System]!

After all, you're so good at changing faces!

With how fast you change your face, let alone me, even if my Master were here, he wouldn't be able to keep up with you!'

Li Changsheng's System coughed twice and said with a hint of embarrassment in its tone, 'Host, how can you say that!

I remember an old saying: those who understand the times are wise!

Besides, even though we have a low starting point, we have great luck!

As soon as we stepped out, we ran into such a top-tier thigh with immense potential, even when placed in the All Heavens and Myriad Realms!

He's already treated us like this, what more could we ask for?

Host, we must deeply remember this saying!

Being born humble is no disgrace; knowing when to yield and when to stand tall is the mark of a true man!

As long as we cling tightly to this thigh, trust me, one day we will follow behind him and reach the Peak of our lives!'

Listening to the System's patient advice, Li Changsheng suddenly felt like cursing!

…

Meanwhile, Li He also received a message…

"Ding-dong!

The [king of involution system] wishes to sign a followership treaty with your System, and has attached a message:

Big boss, please carry me! I'm willing to do anything!

Although my host got the script of the destined protagonist, he definitely can't beat you.

The gap in strength between the two sides is simply too vast…

After discussing it with my host, we have officially decided to surrender unconditionally!

Furthermore, after some discussion between my host and me, Changsheng has resolutely surrendered his destined protagonist destiny, [Person of the True Dragon]!

Please have a look!"

As the System's voice faded, a ball of energy emitting a golden glow slowly appeared in Li He's mind!

Before Li He could react…

the golden light seemed to be attracted by something and tried to fly toward Li He's Dantian…

Seeing this, Li He's expression instantly changed: 'This is bad!

A protagonist's destiny—even dogs wouldn't want it!

Just the background conditions required for a protagonist's destiny to take effect are a literal bottomless pit!

Whoever uses a protagonist's destiny gets hit with bad luck!

Get out of me!'

Li He's brow furrowed slightly!

A few breaths later…

A ball of golden light appeared in Li He's hand…

Li He looked at the golden light representing the protagonist's destiny in his hand and took a deep breath!

Using all his strength, Li He threw it far away!

The moment Li He threw it, the ball of golden light instantly merged into the Void Realm and disappeared…

…

At this moment…

In a mountain range within Wanshou Prefecture…

A golden light suddenly appeared and merged into a small figure…

At the same time…

As Li Changsheng surrendered his destiny, he suddenly felt a sense of lightness all over…

Since coming here, this was the first time he had felt so relaxed…
