The slightly cool evening breeze brushed past the street.
Chen Ling brushed the sleeves of his Theatrical Robe. His slender fingers gently folded the fully written single-page script, placed it in his pocket, and calmly continued to walk forward.
Seeing this scene, Li Laide opened his mouth to ask sothing, but ultimately didn't speak, silently following behind.
Just now, Li Laide witnessed Chen Ling writing sothing on a piece of paper while walking. Li Laide's eyesight was quite good. Although he pretended to be completely uninterested, in reality, he had already seen most of the content on the paper from the corner of his eye.
That seed to be a... script?
Li Laide repeatedly saw Li Shangfeng's na in it, as well as a few roles without nas, only replaced by Boss, Second Brother, and Third Brother. There also seed to be so Power Plant...
Li Shangfeng's younger sister was abducted, yet he didn't do anything, just unhurriedly writing so inexplicable fanfiction script here?
What kind of sick hobby was this?
Could it be that these things he casually wrote could turn into reality?
Of course, the life or death of the Li Shangfeng siblings had nothing to do with Li Laide. He touched the Gold Bar in his embrace, still sowhat unable to understand what Chen Ling exactly wanted him to do...
"Where are we going?" Li Laide finally opened his mouth.
"Taishi Division."
Chen Ling responded faintly.
"...Then what about ? I can't go with you. Xuanwu Great Avenue is too prosperous. The mont I show my face, the people from the Chengtian Prefecture will co to encircle and suppress ... At that ti, the scene will be very chaotic."
This wasn't Li Laide wanting to run away again. What he said was the truth. There were Chengtian Prefecture patrols on Xuanwu Great Avenue. If a wanted criminal like him showed his face, he was afraid the situation at the Cot Hotel would repeat itself.
"It's fine." Chen Ling didn't even turn his head back. "In a while, the scene will be even more chaotic than you imagine... Absolutely no one will notice you."
Even Li Laide was startled by this sentence. He spoke in astonishnt: "What exactly do you want to do??"
Chen Ling didn't answer.
A dull deathly silence once again enveloped between him and Li Laide. The latter silently clenched his hands...
It was like this again.
Encountering this kind of difficult-to-answer question, he wouldn't speak...
"Since you don't want to know anything, why must you tie to your side?" The Young Li Laide was sowhat annoyed. "What am I? Your accessory? Or a mascot?!"
"If you wanted to find a mascot, that Li Shangfeng who obeys you in every way should be more suitable! At least he wouldn't endlessly cause trouble for you! At least he is more like a normal person! Instead of soone like ..."
Li Laide clenched his teeth tightly. The dream from just now surfaced in his mind again, and he finally spat out those two words personally:
"...Heretic."
Chen Ling suddenly stopped in his tracks.
The gentle evening breeze brushed past the hem of the Theatrical Robe. He looked back at that stubborn and awkward youth's face. Those eyes emitting a faint scarlet in the night silently narrowed...
"Do you feel..."
"You, are a Heretic?"
"Am I not?" Li Laide sneered. "You've read my diary, you should know that I'm different from you people... In this era, people like are Heretics."
Chen Ling shook his head. "I understand what you an... but you are only sowhat special, far from the point of being a Heretic."
"I'm just special?" Li Laide clenched his fists tightly. Those ugly figures carved into his childhood mories, and that bearded figure who almost killed him just now, surfaced in his mind again. "You are just like them, enjoying equality from birth. You haven't experienced the contempt of others, you haven't seen the fear in others' eyes, what right do you have to understand ?!"
The youth's angry questioning echoed in the wind. Those pains he tried so hard to conceal were like scars that could never heal, all exposed in front of Chen Ling at this mont, showing him his own savagery.
Chen Ling just looked at him quietly like this, silent for a long ti...
Before slowly opening his mouth:
"Follow closely..."
"Very soon, you will know."
Chen Ling continued to walk forward without looking back.
Li Laide didn't understand Chen Ling's aning. He also knew that trying to escape right now was aningless. He took a deep breath, tried hard to calm his mood, and silently followed behind Chen Ling.
The dim street continuously extended before the one red and one black figures...
At the end of the silence and darkness,
A Xuanwu Great Avenue pointing straight to the Chengtian Dynasty was bustling with extraordinary liveliness.
...
Chengtian Imperial Palace.
Imperial Study.
"Your Majesty, Chong Zhiqiu has already received the decree and left the Chengtian Domain."
Outside the blurry curtain, a youth's figure stood respectfully. His figure was obscured, unable to see his appearance clearly, but vaguely, a few strands of gray hair could be seen falling on his shoulders.
"Mm." A calm voice sounded from behind the desk. "How is the matter I asked you to pay attention to?"
"Your Majesty asked to pay attention to strange occurrences happening within the Chengtian Domain recently, regardless of size... This humble subject naturally rembers." The youth smiled bitterly. "But the population of the Chengtian Domain is too large, countless strange occurrences are happening every day. This humble subject sifts and identifies them every day, and can only barely cope..."
"However..." The youth changed the topic,
"Yesterday on the Chengtian Prefecture's side, there was indeed a strange matter worthy of attention."
"Speak."
The figure behind the desk spoke faintly.
"Yesterday the Chengtian Prefecture received a report, saying they discovered a fugitive wanted criminal, and thus sent people to encircle and suppress... But later, everyone from the Chengtian Prefecture who went to encircle and suppress seed to have forgotten about this matter, and ca back on their own."
The figure behind the desk didn't express an opinion on this, still maintaining silence...
The youth hadn't finished speaking, continuing to say:
"Originally, this humble subject didn't feel this was anything strange, it was nothing more than the 'Heart Python' exerting its power. That wanted criminal was originally of the Path of the Thief, having this kind of thod is not strange..."
"But what's bizarre is, even if mories can be stolen, the traces left by battle shouldn't be able to be erased... That hotel that was encircled and suppressed with force by the Chengtian Prefecture was unexpectedly still completely intact afterwards. Not even a cup or a table and chair was damaged..."
"It was as if soone not only stole everyone's mories, but also restored the entire scene."
The figure behind the desk suddenly paused.
"...Your Majesty?" The youth seed to sense His Majesty's abnormality and asked tentatively.
"Imdiately transmit my decree, have the Duke of Chill set off for Lingxu Prison to guard against a Calamity attack." The tone of the figure behind the desk beca solemn.
"Patrolling the security?" The youth spoke in astonishnt. "But Your Majesty, the Duke of Zhao has already been dispatched by you. If the Duke of Chill also leaves, apart from you, the Chengtian Domain won't have a Demigod holding the fort... Moreover, I haven't heard of Lingxu Prison being attacked by Calamities recently either?"
The figure behind the desk didn't answer, but a highly oppressive gaze swept out overwhelmingly from behind the curtain, abruptly pressing onto the youth!
The youth instantly broke out in a cold sweat all over his head, hurriedly saluting: "It was this humble subject talking too much... This humble subject will go do it imdiately!"
"Wait."
Just as the youth turned around, he was stopped. When he looked back, a piece of paper fully written with nas lightly floated through the curtain and landed in front of him.
"A few months ago, the Chengtian Prefecture submitted a morial, feeling that the security arrangents of Xuanwu Great Avenue were sowhat inappropriate... I thought it over repeatedly, it's indeed ti for a change."
"Just..."
"Change to these people on the list."
The youth received the list and only swept a glance at it, and those nas made him break out in cold sweat... He took a deep breath and spoke respectfully:
"This humble subject... accepts the decree."
