Void, and more Void!

Cheng Shi was stunned. He felt as if he had not entered a dream, but had come to pay homage to the gods.

I had been thinking that it had been a long time since I had seen my other Lord of Grace, and here he is.

However, the other party's attitude...

Cheng Shi's heart skipped a beat. Standing ramrod straight under his Lord of Grace's gaze, and seeing that the other party remained silent for a long time, he immediately spoke:

"Praise..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by those cold eyes.

Why would a traveler of the Nothingness step into Chaos?

It was a very short question, but it completely stunned Cheng Shi.

At this moment, the gale in the Void regained its warmth, reminding Cheng Shi of the scene when he was wantonly kneaded by that terrifying pressure at the Path of Fate's Beginning.

Oh no, I've been sweating more and more frequently lately.

Am I weak?

Hmm? [Nothingness] can indeed be considered a kind of void, which makes sense.

!!

Cheng Shi, now is not the time to let your mind wander to these nonsense things. You need to find a way to fool, no, deal with, no, respond to your Lord of Grace!

He's watching you right now, so get your brain working!

Cheng Shi's CPU was overclocked. At this moment, he racked his brains to think of a reason to justify himself. In order to find a good excuse, he instantly recalled all the processes related to his fusion with [Chaos].

The Memory flooded back so quickly that he was momentarily disoriented. His thoughts suddenly drifted to an additional question: was he qualified to be a darling of Memory again?

But this inexplicable idea quickly dissipated, and another thought entered his mind.

He suddenly remembered the ambiguous words that Katarro had said to him before he left the Temple of Chaos: "..."

"My lord, the only advice I can give you is: I don't know."

Cheng Shi had never understood the meaning of those words until this moment, when he suddenly realized what it meant!

His expression suddenly changed, instantly transforming him from a fearful "blasphemer" into a helpless victim, lamenting with grief and despair:

"Lord of Grace benefactor, I... I don't know!"

Cheng Shi spoke these words with conviction, but the hesitation and unease in the corners of his eyes betrayed his lack of conviction.

He wondered if his Lord of Grace would see through him, but how could [Destiny], as the [Nothingness] Dominion who sees through the essence of the Cosmos, not know Cheng Shi was thinking?

He saw everything clearly.

Although it was all a trap set by his own Twin Gods, Cheng Shi's greed made him willingly jump in.

Therefore, His will did indeed deviate from the "Nothingness" for a moment, and in the future He could see, His Believer should not step into the "Chaos".

Now, Change has once again taken over Destiny, and the self-destructive effects of [Prosperity] continue, causing [Destiny] to furrow its brow slightly.

However, He did not punish His Believer for this, but instead returned to His Indifference, saying without joy or sorrow:

"[Chaos] is intended to prevent the essential from becoming clear; they themselves do not even know what they are doing."

Walking on a path of chaos will only lead you further and further away from Destiny.

"!!!"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi's legs went weak, and he almost collapsed into the Void.

This is no longer a subtle warning; it's practically an open intimidation!

He didn't want to get close to chaos.

But! But these three [Chaos] talents are just too good to pass up...

If I never had it, I wouldn't want it; but this talent is already in my pocket, and now you want me to take it out and throw it away... I'm sorry, I can't do it!

Cheng Shi swallowed hard, deciding to stand up for the coins in his pocket.

He racked his brains, pondering the logic of sophistry, and after a moment took a deep breath, his eyes resolute as he said:

"My Lord of Grace, I..."

"Wrong."

The gale in the Void suddenly stopped, but the chilling temperature still lingered.

The starlight in those Starry Eyes stopped twinkling, and the spiral stopped spinning. He quietly looked at Cheng Shi, at this Believer who was overly influenced by his own Twin Gods, without saying a word.

He was not moved by Cheng Shi's sincere attitude; He just wanted to hear what else his Believer would say.

This Cheng Shi, Cheng Shi did not choose to use flowery language and sophistry. He felt that the argument that "since it is Predestination, it should be able to accommodate Change" was Predestination. Moreover, using the same reason repeatedly could easily arouse the resentment of those who were being fooled. Although it was essentially a kind of offering to Him, shouldn't the devoutness of offering be approached with a different mindset and constantly refreshed?

So this Cheng Shi chose not to be a pious person who was not sincere, but to be a sincere person who confided in others!

He started having a heart-to-heart talk with "Destiny".

"Your devout Believer, I must admit that I am sometimes a little Greed, but I do not want to attract the attention of [Chaos], but rather to gain some benefits from the game between Him and [Order].

Furthermore, the Faith Fusion has only just begun. I believe I have already merged with Faith. Under the influence of "Nothingness," I don't know if I can merge with other Faith. That's why I confidently and boldly gave Him some responses with hidden intentions.

But I never imagined that it wasn't a confrontation between Him and "Order" at all, but rather that He was playing the role of...

Just as he finished speaking, Cheng Shi fell silent—a physical silence.

Another Nothingness of wind suddenly blew out from his mouth, blowing all the words he was about to say back into his stomach.

At the same time, a pair of playful eyes opened above Cheng Shi's head, and their appearance immediately filled the entire Void with a Yin-Yang atmosphere.

"Let me see which petty person is trying to intimidate my Believer?"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi wished he could bury his head in the deepest Nothingness. He stood there trembling, not daring to utter a sound.

His Indifference eyes glanced at the amused eyes, his gaze growing even colder. "Looks like you really want to fight."

"Hey you, stop talking the talk, do you even have time now?"

The words had barely left his mouth...

"Boom!!!"

Cheng Shi has flown away.

[Nothingness] The aftermath of the civil war was devastating, and the entire Void collapsed in an instant. Endless Nothingness energy erupted from the deepest part of the void like a revived volcano, making the pitch blackness even more Nothingness.

Even though this terrifying power spread at a speed beyond the comprehension of Mortals, annihilating everything in the Void, it did not harm this poor Mortals in the slightest.

Cheng Shi only felt a tremendous force coming towards him, and then he was hit hard like a golf ball and sent flying.

The person flies ahead, while the soul chases behind.

He didn't know how long he had been flying, but when his consciousness finally returned to his body, he found himself in a stable and An Jing new Void, and then plunged headfirst into the "ground" at an extremely fast speed.

"Bang—"

The Clown crashed.

After he sat up in a disheveled state, he realized that there was also a pair of eyes staring intently at him in this Void.

Cheng Shi was first surprised, then delighted.

"Hey, Dragon King, we meet again. Were you also forced in?"

Indeed, the owner of these eyes was not any of Him, but Li Jingming, who was standing in the Void, devoutly awaiting the summons of his "Lord of Grace".

But [the Deception] left after bringing him here, and then, Cheng Shi fell down.

Cheng Shi was very observant. He noticed the doubt in the Dragon King's eyes and, considering the Dragon King's demeanor, quickly guessed that the Dragon King's audience had not yet begun.

Then, his eyes darted around, and he coughed twice, saying:

"Ahem, well, my Lord of Grace asked me to pass on a message to you."

Li Jingming frowned the moment he saw Cheng Shi, and hearing Cheng Shi's words now, he was even more puzzled. "[Destiny]?"

"Oh, your Lord of Grace, [Deception]." Cheng Shi quickly corrected himself, these little tricks were very familiar to him. "Sometimes speaking too fast makes it easy to swallow words. Besides, [Nothingness] is one family, loving each other, why distinguish between each other, right?"

"?"

Li Jingming's eye twitched. He felt that the other party's words were completely unbelievable, but there was nothing else to do here. So he nodded and signaled Cheng Shi continue, wanting to see what this Believer in "Destiny" was up to this time.

Cheng Shi rubbed his hands together, his expression turning strange:

"To be honest, I was a little shocked because it was the first time I had ever encountered this method."

Dragon King, don't disbelieve me. Your Lord of Grace said this was a cash-on-delivery message, so before you listened, didn't you...?

"Shall we pay the postage first?"

"..."
