Liu Yu paused slightly at the King of King of Qin's words.
To be honest, he seemed to have felt uneasy about Ziyue.
Back then, he and A Li accidentally wandered into the back mountain and were rescued by Ziyue who suddenly appeared. After that, Ziyue took them to travel the world and explore many secrets. Apart from the skills he inherited, most of his abilities were taught by Ziyue.
Logically speaking, Ziyue had done him a great favor, and given the bond the three of them had formed back then, their relationship should have been quite close.
But that's not the case. From the moment Ziyue entered the palace, he kept his distance from her. Back then, he was the first to quietly leave the group of three!
A Li's later indifference towards him was probably due to his own abrupt departure back then, but he had no choice; he was genuinely afraid at the time.
Most of the time, Ziyue gives people a very reliable feeling, like a mountain, seemingly able to solve any problem, but sometimes, perhaps without even realizing it herself, she is terrifying.
The chilling aura he occasionally exuded Magic City he had seen in those ancient tombs.
After finally giving in and sneaking away with Flying Star, he didn't sleep well for several months, fearing that he would be caught by Ziyue when he woke up. But as it turned out, nothing happened, and even their second meeting was just as uneventful.
He once thought he was overthinking things, but now that the King of Qin has said this, Liu Yu knows that his initial feeling was not wrong!
"You knew she had problems from the beginning?" Liu Yu asked suspiciously. "Then why did you still dare to take her in?"
"There's no conflict," the King of Qin laughed. "Having problems doesn't mean it can't be used; it just means we have to be careful. As for Chen Qing, he actually entrusted her with the military power of the entire force. Such trust, just because we slept together?"
"Huh? When?"
"This is none of your concern." The King of Qin shook his head and then left.
"You're leaving already?"
"Why aren't we leaving? It might be too late if we wait until that thing comes out." The King of Qin stretched. "My injuries haven't healed yet. I'm just here to watch the show; I have no ability to get involved."
Liu Yu followed behind, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Can you tell me what it is?"
"I cannot say," the King of Qin shook his head.
Why?
"Because of an agreement," the King of Qin said in a low voice, "This world was written into an agreement from the very beginning. Some people's names cannot be mentioned. Whoever mentions them will be locked down by a certain program. This was Pu Yunchuan's compromise back then, and it is precisely because of this compromise that those guys have not been discovered for so many years."
Liu Yu: "."
"You wouldn't understand even if I explained it to you, but it's coming soon. The fact that those guys have started to move means that some things from the past are bound to resurface."

" Ziyue!"
On the computer screen, Chen Qing stared intently at the monitor, his eyes bloodshot, at Ziyue, who had been beaten to death by Elder Liu!
But there was nothing he could do!
To improve their computing power and to participate more deeply in the transformation of the game world, the team connected themselves to a supercomputer!
However, the network is a local area network, limited to the interior of this building. To prevent technology leakage, the interior of the building is also a chained local area network. In other words, apart from within the game, the only scope I can control is the digital devices connected to this building.
Yes, at this moment, Chen Qing —or rather, Pu Yunchuan —has become the kind of all-powerful artificial intelligence seen in movies. If he wants, he can control almost any connected digital device in the building.
At that moment, due to excessive emotional excitement, the entire building experienced an internet outage, and even the power supply became unstable!
An alarm went off, and the building descended into chaos!
Elder Liu, holding the gun, frowned slightly. He had just committed murder, and the alarm had sounded outside. Was it a coincidence?
Just as I was wondering what to do, the conference room door was suddenly kicked open.
" Elder Liu! Are you alright? Oh?"
The person in charge and security personnel who barged in were stunned. Several security guards instinctively stepped back, drew their guns, and pointed them at Elder Liu. Because they were hired security guards, they had a strong sense of self-preservation when faced with someone carrying a gun, whether it was their employer or someone else.
"Stop!" The person in charge was terrified at the sight. If this man were to be shot dead here, it would be a world-shaking event. He quickly shouted, "Put down your guns!"
Elder Liu remained calm, slowly placing the gun on the table before raising his hands at a very slow pace.
This coordinated action brought a slight sense of relief to the security guards.
Regardless, they didn't want to lay a hand on their employer. Security personnel rely on their reputation; being branded as someone who shot and killed their employer, no matter the reason, would mean they could forget about working in this line of work, especially since the other party was a celebrity.
"Should we call the police?" the security guard asked in English.
"Fuck you!" the person in charge cursed angrily.
"It's nothing." Elder Liu sat down with a wry smile. "Just call the police if necessary."
" Elder Liu, don't joke around!" The person in charge quickly came over and helped the other person sit down. "What exactly happened?"
"She wanted to kill me." Elder Liu looked puzzled. "Are you sure you've thoroughly investigated this person's background?"
The person in charge was taken aback. "Are you kidding me?"
Is this woman an assassin?
That makes sense. Given Elder Liu's status, even if he was carrying a gun, he wouldn't have shot the other person. Something must have happened. Could he really be an assassin?
"It was our oversight. I'll handle this. Elder Liu, you must have been frightened. Let me have someone take you to rest."
"Please make sure to investigate thoroughly, preferably all the designers we hired. This experiment must not be exposed under any circumstances."
"I see"
The conversation between the two was under surveillance. Through the high-definition camera, Pu Yunchuan could see it clearly. An old man who was about to die had killed someone and his acting skills were worthy of Oscar. His puzzled expression didn't seem fake at all. Even though he had watched the whole thing, he still wondered if the old man was schizophrenic.
But it's clearly not that simple.
Pu Yunchuan tried his best to calm himself down. He knew that anger was useless. Although he could control the digital devices in the building, it was unlikely that he could use them to kill someone. Moreover, once he did, he probably would never know the truth about what happened afterward.
Stay calm. This is all history; you can't change it. What you need to do is observe it objectively and find out exactly what happened back then.
And this old man
Pu Yunchuan stared intently at the man who had shot Ziyue. What was that old bastard's background?
Even though Ziyue had the best chance of replicating this game, why did he go so far as to slander her in order to kill Ziyue?
There's only one reason. This old thing doesn't want to be Samsara and copied!
Why?
He's clearly one of the major investors, and he also desires immortality. If that's the case, why try to stop him?
They've seen how complicated this game world is; wouldn't it be a good thing to replicate a simpler world?
What exactly does he want to do?
After calming down, Pu Yunchuan suddenly realized many things. There were no surveillance cameras in that conference room, and the identities of those people on the top floor of the building were kept secret. Did Elder Liu know that he had killed those people above Ziyue?
have no idea.
Pu Yunchuan immediately realized that this Elder Liu was not one of the people above!
No. They might appear to be allies, but that old man has other plans!
