Chapter 522: Chapter 410: Clash of the Causality Law!

Shen Xiujun put down her phone.

Just after she had reached "Half-step Silver," she immediately checked the related level descriptions.

It had to be said—

Humans were quite capable of wasting time.

But was her time meant to be spent on such meaningless things?

As the Master of Cultivation, being dragged into a prolonged task was already a loss of face.

...No.

Shen Xiujun thought for a moment, and then picked up her phone again, opened the gaming interface, and selected "Log out."

She opened the gaming forum and began to search for the information she needed.

It wasn’t long.

Under the "Account trading" section, she found what she needed.

"Very well, let’s complete the transaction as quickly as possible."

Shen Xiujun murmured softly.

She turned her head to look outside the window, only to see that it was already very late.

Time was of the essence!

After all, after acquiring a King’s account, she also needed to familiarize herself with the operation of various characters, and get a handle on all sorts of maps and items.

Then she could settle accounts with that young man.

Shen Xiujun turned her head back and looked at the blank wall—

On the other side of the wall.

Wu Xiaode was lying in bed, already deep in sleep.

Dreams.

He stood atop an arena built of countless corpses, unable to help sighing.

The Feeding Demon Master’s power was so great it drove people to despair.

He was dismembered by this beast hundreds of times, until this time, faced by an extremely powerful human expert—

He was still dismembered by those hairs.

It was truly disheartening.

Wu Xiaode shook his head, feeling that his mental endurance had reached its limit.

He had never encountered a completely insurmountable opponent before.

But this time, he knew that no matter what method he used to fight, he could not win.

"So..."

"The only hope I have is that Causality Law Skill related to the task..."

He murmured to himself.

The Feeding Demon Master needed to carry out a task in order to kill someone with Merit.

He too survived only by carrying out the task of "grinding reputation," so as not to be killed on the spot.

What should he do?

What kind of "emergence" would help him?

Wu Xiaode fell into deep thought.

Thanks to these hundreds of brutal deaths—

They made him more cautious, more reluctant to immediately undertake an initiation task.

Some things needed to be thought through clearly; otherwise, if he advanced in the wrong direction and failed to affect the Demon Lord, it would all be pointless.

Suddenly.

Lines of ice crystal letters emerged, floating in mid-air:

"You have already died hundreds of times and cannot enter ’Death Experience’ for now."

"You can now activate ’Return to Dream’ and play as Li Chengfeng to search for the secrets of that era."

"Do you wish to enter Li Chengfeng’s era?"

Wu Xiaode nodded, "Enter."

With a flash of light.

He disappeared from the spot.

...

In the center of a destroyed city.

Wu Xiaode held the Butterfly Soul blade, humming a tune, and walked slowly.

Finally.

He stood before the soaring flames.

"The Death God has already been taken care of by me,"

He said with a smile.

Within the devouring Fiery Flame, a colossal figure emerged, buzzing:

"Well done!"

"You are truly my minion, able to do much on my behalf; I shall now fulfill my promise."

A strand of fire flew out, landing on Wu Xiaode and eventually converging on the back of his hand, turning into a blazing flame pattern.

The Demon Lord’s voice spread in all directions:

"From today onwards, you and your organization are my subordinates."

"No Demon Lord will harm you!"

"This pact will always be effective!"

Wu Xiaode listened intently, a smile gradually spreading across his face.

"Thank you, my lord, we shall always follow by your side, providing you with all manners of Destruction services—"

"What tasks are there next?"

He asked respectfully.

"None," said the Demon Lord in the flames.

"None?" Wu Xiaode found it hard to believe.

According to the memories of Li Chengfeng’s body, over the years, in order to verify his true allegiance, the Demon Lord had continuously tested him, setting him on various Destruction tasks to complete.

Now there were none left?

Inside the flames, the Demon Lord’s voice grew more somber:

"Just now, the Time Law committed suicide, and from this moment, all time has become disorderly."

"The flow of time in all worlds operates on its own."

"We can no longer kill all the Heroic Spirits, only retreat and wait, or slip into slumber."

"Li Chengfeng, take good care of the All Worlds, wait for the retaliation of all beings to come, or for a change in the Laws to occur; at that moment, we will wake up again."

"Then, we will completely destroy everything!"

The Fiery Flame soared into the sky, tearing through the heavens, its destination unknown.

Only Wu Xiaode stood alone where he was.

Li Chengfeng had died, the Death God had died, and time had died.

All the strong ones from the All Worlds had died.

...What an era this was.

He shook his head, about to leave, when he suddenly saw figures gradually appearing in the darkness.

These people knelt on one knee, looking up at him with reverent eyes.

—They were all minions.

"My lord, have you gained the Demon Lord’s pact?"

An old man asked excitedly.

Wu Xiaode raised his hand, showing everyone the flame pattern on the back of his hand.

"We have successfully allied with the Demon Lord."

Wu Xiaode said indifferently.

The crowd erupted into cheers, their faces showing a relieved expression.

Wu Xiaode observed the people and understood in his heart.

These people were all gathered around Li Chengfeng for their own selfish gains, hoping to live in trepidation.

Li Chengfeng used them as a front, deceiving the havoc-wreaking demons into thinking the entire Destruction Council was comprised of human traitors.

However—

That wasn’t important for now.

"Go."

Wu Xiaode gave his orders, "You must search through the many worlds for any unusual traces, and notify me immediately once you have any news."

"Is this the latest mission, Chairman?"

"Indeed it is."

"Understood!"

The group of people respectfully bowed to Wu Xiaode, then disappeared into the darkness once again.

Only he remained, still standing in the same spot.

—According to Li Chengfeng, the last Destiny Fruit of this era was about to emerge.

Having dispatched all his manpower, it was the perfect opportunity to probe for the signs of the Destiny Fruit’s appearance.

Next—

Wu Xiaode was preparing to return to the Destruction Council when a sense of alarm suddenly surfaced in his heart.

The voice of Ulysses echoed:

"Boss, wake up. Someone’s knocking at the door, it’s that monster."

Wu Xiaode immediately left the dream state.

In bed, he opened his eyes.

Knock, knock, knock—

The knocking continued.

"Who is it?"

Wu Xiaode rubbed his eyes as he slowly got ready.

If it was coming over this late, it must have found some way to boost its reputation with him.

He couldn’t afford to be careless!

"It’s me, Little Wu." Shen Xiujun’s voice came from outside the door.

"What is it?"

"It’s something very important. Please open the door."

Wu Xiaode remained silent for a moment.

He couldn’t avoid it.

He had to confront it head-on and resolve the issue; only then would the monster give him a break.

"Let me get dressed."

He stood up, draped on a coat, slipped on some shoes, and went to open the door.

He saw Shen Xiujun standing at the doorway, holding a mobile phone and smiling, "Want to play a game? ’Stubborn Commoner’—it’s really fun."

Wu Xiaode also smiled back at her.

"No thanks."

Bang.

The door closed.

—This wouldn’t do; he had expressed his stance about that game during the day, and now taking a completely opposite action could mess up the mission. If he did, the monster could kill him outright!

Wu Xiaode took a deep breath and reopened the door.

"Just kidding, Xiujun. I really like this game. Do you play it too?"

He asked curiously.

"Yeah, I’ve always been playing this game, and my level is pretty good too."

Shen Xiujun showed off her game level on the screen to him.

Wu Xiaode stared at the level, momentarily stunned.

—She had already reached "Strongest King" status!

How did she do it?

No way, how could it be so fast!

Wu Xiaode felt his heart sink to the bottom.

Shen Xiujun smiled proudly, adopting the tone of a cute girl, "I remember someone said before, that the girl he would truly admire must be a hero in a game, her level being that of the Strongest King—"

"That’s the girl you would take a second glance at!"

Wu Xiaode nodded stiffly, "Yes, I did say that."

Suddenly, a line of ice crystal text appeared, floating before his eyes:

"The other party’s Causality Law Magic has taken effect, their reputation in your regard is about to rise, and unless you have a sufficiently convincing reason, the other party will gradually become a girl you fancy."

"Take notice."

"This is the power of Causality Law. If her reputation really starts to rise, you’ll like it, no matter if you know it’s a monster!"

Wu Xiaode froze for a moment.

He suddenly understood the terror of this Causality Law Magic!

Once she boosted her reputation, he would genuinely fall for her.

The monster would gain everything he had!

Wu Xiaode felt a chill spreading up from his spine to the top of his head.

His only hope...

Was actually this same Causality Law because the magic was based on reason.

Otherwise, the monster would’ve killed him long ago!

Anger surged within him.

Son of a bitch!

You’ve dismembered me in dreams hundreds of times.

And after I wake up, you still expect me to love you?

—Never underestimate the power of us ordinary humans!

"That’s fantastic!"

Wu Xiaode clapped, "I’ve never before seen a female player at the ’Strongest King’ level; you really are extraordinary, I’m completely in awe of you."

"I must do one thing; just wait—"

Without waiting for Shen Xiujun’s response, he dashed out of the room, running toward the backyard downstairs.

Shen Xiujun was startled.

Was he thinking of running away?

At that thought, a look of vicious intent briefly crossed her face, but her voice remained gentle, "Hey! Where are you going, Little Wu?"

"Just wait for me, I’ll be right back!" Wu Xiaode called out.

After a few seconds,

Wu Xiaode indeed returned.

He was carrying a big rooster in one hand and a bowl and kitchen knife in the other, as he walked back into the room.

"Xiujun, come in," Wu Xiaode said.

The murderous intent on Shen Xiujun’s face had completely vanished, and she asked with curiosity, "Little Wu, what are you doing?"

Wu Xiaode pinned the rooster to the ground, using the kitchen knife to gesture by its neck without looking up, "You’re too strong, Xiujun."

"I’m in absolute admiration of your gaming skills, so I’ve made a decision—"

"Let’s become sworn siblings!"
