I Tried to Kill, But the System Made Me Farm - Episode 5

Lord Preston’s men kidnap Lilian, a saintess from the Lunaris Sect known for her supreme cultivation skills, intending to use her as a cultivation tool and to humiliate righteous cultivators. Despite being drugged, Lilian fiercely resists and attacks Lord Preston, who retaliates harshly. In the midst of this, the protagonist receives a main quest from the system: to persuade Lilian to see the hypocrisy of the righteous sects and make her submit willingly. Struggling with how to prove this, the protagonist decides to convince her through dialogue, but Lilian remains skeptical about trusting him, warning that men always lie. The episode ends with the protagonist inviting her to talk elsewhere, setting the stage for the pivotal persuasion attempt.
