Home!

Long time no see, big cup~

A reunion inexplicably turned into an apology session.

After venting her anger, Hong Lin said "I'm sorry." She pulled up Qin Xin, who had a pig-headed expression, and stared at him for a long time with a strange look before raising her head and saying:

"I didn't deliberately use excessive force because I can't beat you in the future, I just..."

As she spoke, her expression shifted, and she looked into the distance, letting out a soft sigh:

"Never mind, there's nothing to be ashamed of admitting it, I'm just terrified."

In this True Universe, even gods are so insignificant, so what are we?

Qin Xin, call back. You saved me; I should thank you.

Qin Xin coughed twice, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and smiled:

"The Hong Lin I know isn't that pretentious."

He patted Hong Lin on the shoulder, then looked at Cheng Shi and sighed helplessly:

"It's good that you're back."

What was discovered?

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi's expression turned solemn, and he recounted everything he had seen. However, he dared not mention that he had brought the Divine Throne back, as such an action was far too frightening.

It's uncertain whether the Divine Throne holds secrets or dangers; perhaps we should wait until we have a better understanding before bringing these things up with them.

Qin Xin and Big Cat were both terrified when they first heard about this, and kept wondering who would have created such a thing in that place.

"Since all the gods are dead, is it possible that a human was the one who built that Divine Throne?"

Qin Xin looked at Cheng Shi, her words unfinished, but her expression clearly asked, "Is it possible that this is another... you?"

Cheng Shi, but he had indeed guessed it that way.

Previously, countless Cheng Shi, including the Scarred Cheng Shi, had declared war on [Origin] in a righteous and passionate manner. Therefore, Cheng Shi could not imagine what kind of Cheng Shi would piece together such a thing in such a place, expressing his covetousness for that Divine Throne in such a "dark", "distorted", and "secret" way.

Making baseless guesses was obviously futile, and the three of them quickly gave up.

They had lingered in the True Universe long enough, and they didn't know how much longer this spacetime bridge would exist. After experiencing so many unexpected events, they knew it was time to leave.

Their bodies may be fine, but their exhausted spirits and minds, along with the ever-present fear, prevent them from exploring any further. The True Universe is vast, and they can't become fat overnight.

After a brief discussion, the three of them refocused their attention and headed towards home, preparing to leave this terrifying place.

Cheng Shi looked down into the Abyss below the bridge, his previous eagerness to go home gone, replaced only by doubt about God of Merriment's motives.

Will the Fear Faction unite in fear upon their return this time, as they have done in the past?

He didn't know.

The three exchanged glances, their expressions varied, and after counting down from three, they jumped together into the distorted stream of light beside the long bridge.

And so, the True Universe returned to silence...

Yeah, right.

There's never a shortage of excitement here.

Just after the three left, Jie Shu had disappeared earlier, and another hooded man reappeared on the long bridge.

They looked in the direction the three had left, remaining silent for a long time, their expressions varied.

After a long while, another hooded figure clenched his fist nervously and asked, "Why is he so strong in every world?"

Jie Shu scoffed, "Otherwise, why would we be searching for a world without him?"

The hooded man hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Can't we just take his opportunity away?"

"Opportunity?" Jie Shu scoffed. "Do you think the gaze of the gods is weightless?"

Along this journey, you've seen countless Fate Weaver crushed by adversity.

When you see something, you shouldn't only see its strengths and ignore its weaknesses. It is the one chosen by [Nothingness], so what are you?

"..."

The hooded man was clearly dissatisfied, but when he thought of that scene, he loosened his clenched fist.

"I'm really nothing, I just want to live. Let's go, it's time to get going."

Just as the two were about to leave the Space-Time Dolphin Bridge and head to another world, two more figures suddenly appeared beside them.

The appearance of these two figures startled the hooded man behind Jie Shu. Fortunately, Jie Shu remained relatively calm. Looking at the two identical faces before him, he frowned, thought for a moment, and then chuckled:

"It seems that we are not the only ones who want to pursue a 'beautiful home'."

Unfortunately, you're too late; that person has already gone home.

Upon hearing the word "home," the two figures visibly paused.

They looked at each other and both saw disbelief in each other's eyes.

I've been scammed again!

But this time, it wasn't the small one who fooled me, it was the big one!

Indeed, those two figures are Cheng Deception and Cheng Destiny.

They had come here to collect their due reward, but unexpectedly heard that Cheng Shi had returned home safely. Suddenly, the "vagrants'" sky seemed to "collapse."

The True Universe is so vast that even a wanderer who has been drifting for many years may not be able to find even a trace of it in his lifetime.

Therefore, there are many beings like them who have lost their original world and are wandering in the True Universe, but some people may never meet them in their entire lives.

The reason they were able to pinpoint Cheng Shi's location in the True Universe so quickly was not only because they could detect spacetime fluctuations, but also because they had been "spoiled" by someone long ago.

Yes, spoilers!

Not long ago, God of Merriment from another world suddenly found them and asked them to cooperate in a play. However, He only provided the Stage, not the script. The play was entirely up to the actors' own interpretation. There was only one thing He insisted on: that the actors say the line, "[Deception] destroys the world, Destiny saves the world."

Originally Cheng Deception and Cheng Destiny didn't want to take on the role, but unfortunately, the [Deception] offered too much, so He said:

"I can assure you that this world will not be destroyed by [the Origin] like yours. As for how to escape from this unsolvable Experiment..."

I can tell you after you finish this performance.

Cheng Deception something no one believed, but Cheng Destiny was so compelling that they wanted to take a gamble.

As it turns out, they lost their gamble.

As Cheng Deception had predicted, the Deception disappeared immediately after defaulting on the debt.

Even though they can use the time-space loophole to travel to that world to "collect debts," what's the point?

Excessive disturbance to another world was never their intention. Besides, they haven't found a successor yet, and they can't leave the True Universe.

And so, the two Clown who had been tricked by Cheng Shi were repainted on the Space-Time Dolphin Bridge and transformed into brand new Clown.

But no matter how Clown, this is ultimately the Clown's "family matter."

So when Cheng Deception heard Jie Shu's Yin-Yang remarks, he scoffed and retorted:

Do you think there's an explanation for your Foolish Deed?

"???"

Jie Shu's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth in hatred.

That's why he wanted to find a world without Cheng Shi. There was indeed a selfish reason involved, and that selfish reason was: he should stay away from this unlucky thing!

Whether it exists or not is none of your business.

Jie Shu snorted coldly and took the hooded man away.

Seeing the Space-Time Dolphin Bridge fall silent again, Cheng Deception and Cheng Destiny exchanged a glance, both seeing the worry in each other's eyes.

They weren't afraid of being deceived because they knew that was the nature of the God of Merriment.

However, they were quite worried about the line that the God of Merriment emphasized. In any case, a benefactor who risked Lord of Grace life to send them out of the world, even if it wasn't the same one, could not possibly commit an act of world destruction.

They couldn't help but wonder, was He, by defaulting on His debts, preparing an even bigger scam for His Believer, or was He Himself a scam in himself?

Did the Lord of Grace wrote so many scripts for Cheng Shi really know the answer?

In reality, a Villa in Unknown Province and City.

They're back! They're finally back!

The moment Cheng Shi opened his eyes again and saw the Big Cat Villa, Cheng Shi relaxed... not even a little bit.

Although he had indeed left the True Universe and returned to his own world, he needed to confirm whether this was the world that belonged to him.

No matter how logical a guess may be, it is never the Truth until it is verified.

On her own turf, Hong Lin became visibly excited and confident. She rushed into her house, quickly checked everything, and then ran out to the two of them, nodding vigorously.

"Absolutely right, this is it, we're back!"

Qin Xin's sharp gaze suddenly relaxed. Clearly, even the strongest-willed warrior would feel some lingering fear when faced with such a terrifying predicament as spacetime distortion, after all, An Mingyu's experience was still vivid in his mind.

Cheng Shi finally let out a deep breath.

For some reason, after the Big Cat confirmed that everything was correct, he suddenly felt some extremely subtle fluctuations, as if the time that had been out of place had been precisely corrected, the Destiny that Wrong Path had returned to its Predestination, and even the urge to lie in his heart became boiling.

At this moment, the restoration of his Faith made him feel deeply "content".

This is the world I know, no longer the True Universe where I feel lost and alone.

However, even the steady Cheng Shi was not completely at ease. He needed to confirm that none of the relationships in this world had gone wrong, so he began to contact the Clown.

He needed to know whether, in the ten days or so since he left this world, these swindlers had managed to find Nose of Discernment amidst their Giggle and Mock.

The first person I contacted was not anyone else, but the Doctor, because the Doctor's rigor was sufficient to provide the most accurate conclusion.

Meanwhile, the other two also began to examine their interpersonal relationships.

Qin Xin nodded goodbye to the two men and returned to the Fire-Keeping Hall with his Divine Authority. Before leaving, he solemnly promised the two men the friendship of the Fire Keeper and pledged that he would always follow his friend into war with his Divine Authority [War].

Hong Lin immediately called Tao Yi, and the two best friends began whispering among themselves. But soon, Big Cat cry came from inside the Villa.

"What!?"

Just then, the Doctor's voice came through Cheng Shi's phone.

"You're finally back."

In the 104 days you were gone, we found nothing. Guess why?

And where exactly did you go?

"Praising Fool's Game."

"!!??"
