Liu Bing jolted, inwardly grumbling that Empress Nuwa had been caught red-handed again. He gave an awkward smile, as if Empress Nuwa were right in front of him, hoping she could see how sincere it was.
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: Hehe, well, Empress Nuwa, I wouldn't dare talk behind your back. I was complimenting you on how youthful and lively you are.
[Hong Huang Melon King]: Oh? You think I believe that?
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: Empress Nuwa, um, is there some deeper meaning behind this arrangement of yours?
Liu Bing changed the subject at once. It was best not to dwell on this sort of thing or say too much. Just let it pass, and Nuwa usually wouldn't pursue it. She just liked to trade barbs and tease people, then watch them struggle to smile awkwardly.
[Hong Huang Melon King]: Why did I send you back?
Liu Bing's mouth twitched. Hadn't he come back of his own accord to save the world? How had it turned into Nuwa sending him back? Still, he couldn't say that.
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: Empress Nuwa sent me back to save the world.
[Hong Huang Melon King]: What the hell do you mean, "save the world"? Look at my username and say that again.
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: Uh, didn't I come back to save the world?
[Hong Huang Melon King's Eldest Disciple]: Bing, why are you so dense? Her Majesty wants to enjoy the drama and watch the show.
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: Uh...
[Hong Huang Melon King]: Look at the mess you've made! You actually wanted to play some behind-the-scenes mastermind? If you do that, what am I supposed to watch? And in the group, you need to step in, show off your power, and act cool a little more often. Give me some fun. Do you expect me to show off by myself?
Liu Bing stared at Nuwa's message, completely dumbfounded. As expected of the Melon King. She'd probably stepped in from the start just to find some entertainment.
After all, when you'd lived too long, everyone became a drama addict.
Liu Bing thought of all the people in the Primordial World. Every one of them was a serious drama addict, always looking for something to gossip about. Otherwise, why would Luohu have started some entertainment business?
And Houtu—she was supposed to be a merciful, mighty being who governed reincarnation, yet she loved to fan the flames.
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: Your Majesty, I've become an immortal. Isn't showing off in a spiritually barren land a bit much?
[Hong Huang Melon King]: So you're saying I, a Grand Unity, should go show off in the Spiritually Barren Land? Do you know why so many people joined the group?
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: They didn't all join to watch me show off, did they?
[Hong Huang Funeral Services]: Of course they did!
[Heavenly Law Enforcer]: +1
[Hong Huang Entertainment Pioneer]: +1
[Hong Huang Three Swordsmen · Man-Sword]: +10086
Liu Bing looked at all the people who'd popped up at once, and his mouth twitched. So he really had become the entertainment. But at least he wasn't the kind of entertainment who got his soul searched. He was the one being sent off to show off across the myriad worlds and slap faces, creating entertainment for everyone.
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: All right, I get it.

[Hong Huang Melon King]: Mm, you're a quick learner. Do a good job, and we won't treat you unfairly.
Liu Bing left the inner chat group, then sent a message to the main chat group.
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: You need to become the ruler of your world before you can open the Chat Group Store. I'll send you a world map for now. Work hard to become the ruler of your world as soon as possible.
After saying that, Liu Bing sent a detailed world map to the group.
The map not only showed the locations of each country and region, along with the distribution of mineral resources, but also adjusted itself to the actual conditions in everyone's world, clearly marking the territories held by different factions. It was, without a doubt, a real-time map!
When Ying Zheng received the world map, his normally placid expression changed slightly. He frowned, staring at the tiny area belonging to his Great Qin Empire, his face full of disbelief.
His Great Qin Empire occupied such an insignificant sliver of land! The discovery left Ying Zheng rather displeased.
Although Great Qin had fallen after only two generations, Ying Zheng had always thought its territory was vast. Even if it hadn't conquered every last piece of land, he'd believed it had claimed at least six or seven tenths of the world.
But now he realized that it was nowhere near six or seven tenths. It didn't even cover a tenth.
Ying Zheng, with nowhere to vent his pent-up frustration, suddenly called out, "Guards! Give those men outside the hall twenty extra lashes each!"
"Yes!" A palace attendant hurriedly acknowledged the order and left.
Before long, piercing screams rang throughout the palace.
After reading the Qin History Liu Bing had sent, Ying Zheng had ordered a platform built outside the palace. Then he had Hu Hai, Zhao Gao, Xu Fu, and the other alchemists tied to it. Whenever Ying Zheng was in a bad mood, he had them dragged out and whipped.
Listening to the men who had directly or indirectly caused Great Qin to fall after only two generations howl like ghosts, Ying Zheng felt quite satisfied. Everyone already knew he was a tyrant, so he didn't mind adding a few more lines to the record.
Ying Zheng looked at the map again. After thinking it over, he still sent a message to the group.
[First Emperor of Great Qin]: Sir, becoming the ruler of the world seems rather difficult. I've considered it, and I doubt I can accomplish it in my lifetime. Great Qin has only just emerged from years of war. We're facing troubles both at home and abroad, and we need to recuperate for now.
[Zhu of Great Han]: I don't think Great Han can do it either! Also, how do I change my name? Why is my name Zhu?
Liu Che hadn't spoken in the group because he'd been looking for the option to change his name, but he hadn't found it. He only spoke up now after seeing the world map and learning that he had to become the ruler of the world to open the Chat Group Store, where he could buy a way to live forever.
For an emperor, that was a very tempting prospect. So he spoke up.
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: For now, follow the histories of your countries that I gave you, and do your best to improve things. If you need anything, come to me. I'll help.
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: Emperor Wu of Han, I can change your name for you. What would you like it to be?
[Zhu of Great Han]: I want to change it to Emperor Wu of Han Liu Che.
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: All right, I've changed it.
[Emperor Wu of Han Liu Che]: Good. Thank you, sir.
[Yang Chan]: Little Shrimp, could you give me a few more game consoles? That jerk Nezha stole mine. Angry.jpg
[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: Nezha dared to steal your game console? Get your second brother to beat him up. If that doesn't work, take the Precious Lotus Lantern and block the gates of the Heavenly Court. Don't tell me you can't find Nezha. He's in the wrong, so he won't fight back.
[Yang Chan]: Um... I'm a proper lady, okay? I don't know how to fight. My second brother is busy chasing down some demons causing trouble lately. He doesn't have time.
