Him
"I said, I don't know."
The Grey King helplessly closed her eyes, "He's always like this. He doesn't say anything and hides everything in his own heart... Really... annoying."
When she said the last two words, Chen Ling could feel that the Grey King's tone carried a trace of complaint. But that didn't truly carry any malice, it was just the "hating iron for not becoming steel" kind of complaint one would only have towards soone close and trusted.
Chen Ling frowned tightly. He looked at the Red King's corpse in the Coffin, and in his mind, that figure he could never see through surfaced once again...
"..."
"The Bewildernt in your heart is already too deep, it's very difficult to completely dispel. However, my Ancient Vault of the Drama Path has a secret technique that can anchor your mind and help you resist Divine Path Backlash... Will you learn it or not?"
"..."
"Old Six, no matter what, you have to use a basin like your Master."
"..."
"Old Six... so things are not that your Master is unwilling to be frank with you, but that the ti hasn't co yet... Knowing everything in advance is of no benefit to you."
"..."
"You are your Master's Disciple, if I don't do it for you, who else? In this era, the only one who can suppress the Calamity of Mockery for you and accumulate experience is your Master... While your Master is still here, I have to do more things for you... However, your Master can only help you with this kind of thing once. In the future when your Master isn't around, you must not try it easily."
"..."
"Controlling the Calamity of Mockery is more important than anything else."
"..."
"Reverse the Era, Reboot the World. Whether it's you or your four senior brothers and sisters, first you should all advance towards this goal... After that, we can talk about master and disciple again."
"..."
"No, I don't believe it!" Chen Ling gritted his teeth and spoke,
"The dignified Red King of the Dusk Society, a Demigod of the Path of the Actor, how could he die so easily? He is most likely secretly laying out plans again. Maybe this corpse is also sothing he prepared in advance, while he himself is hiding sowhere on the Red Star or Earth, waiting to observe everything that happens next!!"
The Grey King looked at him with a complex expression, "Chen Ling... can't you feel it?"
"Feel what?"
"The Demigod Position of the Path of the Actor originally occupied by your Master... has already returned to heaven and earth."
Chen Ling suddenly froze in place.
What Chen Ling stepped on was the Calamity of Mockery's twisted Path of the Actor. He couldn't sense the changes in the true Path of the Actor... But everyone else on the Path of the Actor in this world besides him had already sensed this change... The return of the Demigod Position of the Path of the Actor to heaven and earth ant that the original Demigod of the Path of the Actor was already dead.
The Red King was truly dead.
"You... how could you just die like this?" Chen Ling looked at the figure in the Coffin, his fists clenched tightly, "You haven't explained all this to yet, you haven't apologized to yet, I haven't forgiven you yet, and I haven't even had the chance to return to the Ancient Vault of the Drama Path again..."
"You just died without a sound like this. Then what about the Dusk Society? What about the Ancient Vault of the Drama Path? What about Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters??"
The Red King in the Coffin remained dead silent.
Chen Ling's emotions beca increasingly agitated. After leaving the Ancient Vault of the Drama Path, he had suffered so many grievances and experienced so many setbacks outside. He originally thought he could eventually wait for a direct response from the Red King. He never expected that what he finally waited for was only a corpse full of secrets...
The anger and annoyance that he had suppressed in his heart during this ti poured out uncontrollably at this mont!
"You created !"
"You taught how to use Paint the Rosy Face!"
"When I was at my most bewildered, you brought back to the Ancient Vault of the Drama Path and gave a ho... But why..."
"Even though you did so much for , why did you dispose of like a Chess Piece! You clearly knew you were going to die, you had First Senior Brother co find , yet you refused to say a single word about wanting to see ?? I really can't figure out, what kind of Role do I play in your heart??"
Thud——!!
Chen Ling's fist smashed heavily onto the Red King's Coffin. A fierce wind swept out, and the originally tranquil lake surface rippled violently.
The Grey King stood quietly in the distance. Liu Qingyan looked at the nearly collapsed Chen Ling, her lips pursed. She wanted to step forward to comfort him with sothing, but was stopped by the Grey King's outstretched hand... The Grey King looked at her and shook her head silently.
Faced with Chen Ling's barrage of questions, the corpse couldn't make any response. Chen Ling's chest heaved violently. After a long ti, he finally cald down a bit...
He turned around and looked at the Grey King.
His voice was extrely hoarse,
"You said you were bringing to see him... was it just to see his corpse?"
"It wasn't who wanted to bring you." The Grey King repeated, "It was him who said before leaving, after he died, for to bring you to find him..."
"..."
Chen Ling's gaze returned to the Red King.
It was the Red King who asked the Grey King to bring him over... Based on Chen Ling's understanding of him, he shouldn't just be having him co to pay his respects to his "remains". But now that he was dead, what was the aning of having him co over?
What exactly did he want to convey to him through this corpse?
Chen Ling was silent for a long ti. His gaze locked onto that sleeping face of the Red King...
Face...
Path of the Actor?
Chen Ling sowhat hesitantly reached out his hand, reaching towards the face of that corpse.
That's right, the Red King was of the Path of the Actor. If his corpse could leave behind any secret, the biggest possibility would be on the "face"... He knew the Red King had always been using a fake face. After all, no matter what, this Demigod of the Path of the Actor, the Leader of the Dusk Society, couldn't really be a youth. Not to ntion he had also experienced a world reboot, his age was at least several hundred years old.
Chen Ling was also indeed very curious, what exactly was the true appearance beneath the skin of this Demigod of the Path of the Actor, the Red King?
Chen Ling's fingertips touched the edge of the cheek, and indeed, he touched a trace of a bump. He suddenly exerted force, forcefully tearing off that face skin!
Riiip——
As the handso youth's face skin dissipated into the air, Chen Ling's pupils abruptly contracted!
That was a face exactly the sa as Chen Ling's.
"How is this possible..." Chen Ling subconsciously took half a step back, "The Red King... is myself?"
A "Chen Ling", a "Chen Ling" draped in a Great Crimson Theatrical Robe, was lying quietly in the center of the Coffin. The facial features were completely identical to Chen Ling's, only the deanor between his brows looked sowhat more weathered.
Chen Ling was briefly in a daze for a mont. He seed to understand why the Nine Monarchs of this era seed to recognize him, yet also seed not to recognize him...
So the previous generation Red King they knew looked exactly the sa as himself?
No...
No!!!
This is wrong!!!
Chen Ling quickly reacted, his breathing extrely rapid.
"I am Chen Ling, but I am fictional!"
"Fundantally, I am the Calamity of Mockery!"
"But you... you can't be the Calamity of Mockery, there is fundantally no Aura of the Calamity of Mockery on you!"
"And this appearance of mine is Yao's appearance!! But... but Yao is of the Path of the Witch God, how could he beco a Demigod of the Path of the Actor??"
"You are not ! You are not Yao either!!"
"You..."
"You............"
"Who exactly are you???!!"
Chen Ling's pupils were covered in scarlet bloodshot veins. He reached out again, touching the Red King's cheek...
He touched another bump.
Beneath "Chen Ling's" face skin, there was still another face skin...
Chen Ling's hand began to tremble, but he ultimately grabbed this face skin, and then... violently tore it off!!
As the face skin gradually disappeared into the air, Chen Ling saw the person's appearance clearly, and his whole body uncontrollably trembled crazily!
His chapped lips parted slightly, struggling to let out a hoarse voice:
"A..."
"A-Yan????"
