"Finally planning to call in reinforcements..."
Chi Xiao's lips curled upward, forming an exaggerated arc. Excitement flickered in his eyes. "Interesting! Truly interesting!"
"Whether they're Order-aligned like Sword Head Lin Qiubai and Red Lotus Lord Ye Fengqing, or Chaos-aligned like Demonic Son Zhang Kuang and Xuan Immortal Zhao Guanlan."
"If you think you're qualified, then come!"
"This is exactly the variable I want!"
"Variables are what make things fun!"
In Chi Xiao's eyes, the outcome of this Family Cultivation competition with Ma Ran didn't matter. Winning or losing was irrelevant. What mattered was the process.
As a high-level god who would remain immortal even when the sun and moon decayed, and endure even when heaven and earth were destroyed, Chi Xiao had seen far too many people and things throughout his long life.
Unlike those geniuses who feared failure, he had long since lost most of his desire to win or lose.
Those ordinary cosmic giants and pinnacle civilization leaders would lose everything after suffering a single defeat.
But Chi Xiao...
As one of the seven "Supreme Rulers" under the Great Cosmic Will, he could lose countless times and would always have another chance to start over.
In fact, at a certain point in his life, in pursuit of amusement, Chi Xiao had divided his mind and manifested countless incarnations, descending into countless civilizations and having his clones personally taste the bitterness of failure many times.
That process kept Chi Xiao from feeling quite so bored.

At first, failure could bring Chi Xiao a novel experience. Later, failure became just as dull and tasteless as victory.
Only interacting with beings of the same level could stir
