Chapter 262: Chapter 257: Zhou Xu’s Visit

"Mystery and ambiguity? Did you just say mystery and ambiguity?"

"Strange as in mysterious, and ambiguity as in hanging ambiguously."

Yang Qizhou suspected he’d misheard, and repeated himself incredulously.

Seeing how skeptical Yang was, Ding Xiaolan puffed up in indignation, "Of course it’s mystery and ambiguity, Brother Qizhou. I might be young, but I know plenty of words. If you don’t believe me, I would show you—uh, but my phone’s my mom’s, and I can’t take it out now. Anyway, it’s definitely those two characters, ’mystery’ and ’ambiguity’."

Clearly, he hadn’t misunderstood.

Yang Qizhou took a deep breath and recalled what ’Big White’ had just told him...

"Mom also mentioned that you can try to win over ’Original Darkness’ and ’Shiny,’ but be cautious of ’Mystery and Ambiguity.’ He’s an enemy."

"Hey, hey, Brother Qizhou, are you alright? You look terrifying right now." Ding Xiaolan’s voice carried a hint of anxiety. She had played with Yang Qizhou for quite a while, but it was her first time seeing such a grim expression on his face.

Yang Qizhou shook his head. "It’s nothing. I just thought of something. Don’t worry about it."

Suddenly, Yang Qizhou remembered something and began scrutinizing the ’Little Bean Ding’ before him. Under his gaze, she shivered and stepped back two paces in fear. "Brother Qizhou, you, you, you, why are you looking at me like that? Just say what you want. You’re scaring me!"

"By the way, Little Bean Ding, your game character has already entered the ’Mysterious Town’ and become a saint of the ’Master of Millions,’ right?" Yang Qizhou double-checked his question.

Ding Xiaolan hesitated. "Uh, I think... probably... maybe... should be correct..."

"So, it’s correct."

Yang Qizhou slapped his thigh and responded earnestly, "Brother Qizhou has a favor to ask you. From now on, regarding the plot of ’Mysterious Town,’ including the movements of divine entities and strange phenomena there, could you keep me informed?"

Ding Xiaolan’s eyes widened, "You’re asking me to be a spy?"

"Don’t make it sound so harsh. It’s just exchanging plot details. Yeah, exchanging, that’s all." Yang Qizhou attempted to feign innocence.

Ding Xiaolan wasn’t easily duped. She firmly shook her head, refusing outright. She even added a remark for good measure.

"Unless there’s food involved, it’s impossible."

Yang Qizhou was speechless. Good grief, kids these days—unyielding unless bribed with food. "What a coincidence, Little Bean Ding. I’m about to move into a big villa, a wealthy lady’s place, where normal folks only dream of seeing the food. Interested?"

Instantly, Ding Xiaolan started drooling...

"Really?"

But soon, the little girl caught on to something, widening her eyes to ask, "Brother Qizhou, wait, you—you’re saying you’re moving away...? Mom! Hurry up! Brother Qizhou is abandoning us!"

Before Yang Qizhou could even respond, Little Bean Ding turned around and bolted away, crying loudly. The sound—it was as if she’d been abandoned by a heartless philanderer.

Hey hey hey, Little Bean Ding, you still haven’t agreed to my request!

Yang Qizhou sighed helplessly...

Ten minutes later.

"Xiao Zhou, are you really moving out?" Zhao Xin’s expression was calm. Although she often cared for Yang Qizhou, a tenant was just that—a tenant. Coming and going was normal, so she wasn’t particularly fazed.

Yang Qizhou nodded. "Yeah, Sister Xin. I have a... uh... friend who found me a place. I’ll be moving in this afternoon."

Zhao Xin replied, half-smiling, "It’s a woman, isn’t it."

"Uh-huh."

"Alright, then. That’s not bad. Even if it doesn’t sound too dignified, at least you’ll have a foothold in the Capital City—it’s less tiring for you this way. Come back and visit often; Xiaolan really enjoys playing with you."

Oh, come on, Sister Xin, don’t use that tone with me. I’m not living off a woman!

Yang Qizhou reluctantly agreed.

To give credit where it’s due, the doll ’Wu,’ made from two quasi-legendary miraculous items, didn’t disappoint. In just half an hour, it finished packing up all the luggage, called a moving truck, and provided the driver with the address.

"Hey, little brother, are you sure this address is correct?" The driver, an elderly man, scrutinized Yang and then the address again, his face full of doubt.

Yang Qizhou waved dismissively. "Just deliver it where I told you to. Even if something’s wrong, it’s not like I’ll ask you to compensate."

Eventually, the driver loaded and drove off with the luggage. Before leaving, he bizarrely commented, "The War God returns home, finds his five-year-old daughter sleeping in a doghouse, and commands an army of ten thousand to march back?"

Yang Qizhou stared at the driver, thinking, ’What nonsense are you spouting?’ freewēbnoveℓ.com

"Not ’Dragon King Returns’? Then, if you’re moving to ’Sky Mountain Garden,’ why were you renting an apartment here? Playing dumb? Rich kid living rough? Sudden wealth?"

?????

Watching the moving truck disappear into the distance, Yang Qizhou muttered, "Driver, stop overindulging in novels."

"Brother Qizhou, wait up..." An urgent voice rang out. Ding Xiaolan quickly ran to the door. "About the ’Mysterious Town,’ I agree. Any new developments, I’ll keep you posted."

Yang Qizhou was a bit surprised. "Oh, Little Bean Ding, what’s made you change your mind all of a sudden?"

Ding Xiaolan fiddled with her fingers and sheepishly replied, "Well, you mentioned that... Sister’s home would have lots of food ordinary folks wouldn’t get to eat..."

No need to elaborate further.

Predictable—kids never yield, unless it’s for free meals and lodging.

"Alright, no problem. There’ll be plenty of food for you..."

Yang Qizhou was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. After hesitating for a while, he said, "Don’t let your game character get too deeply involved with the ’Master of Millions.’ If there’s a chance, it’s best to break away from there."

Ding Xiaolan wanted to ask why, but seeing Brother Qizhou’s serious expression, she instinctively nodded...

"Okay, I got it."

...

...

Yang Qizhou was riding a taxi to ’Sky Mountain Garden,’ thinking about the two characters "Mystery and Ambiguity."

The ’God of Pleasure and Violence’ is a deity in Mysterious Town who had extended a friendly gesture to the game characters in the Land of Prayer Light, allowing them to retrieve what belonged to them.

However, the ’Mother of Beauty and Fertility’ had warned to be wary of ’Mystery and Ambiguity,’ claiming that He was an enemy.

Comparatively, Yang Qizhou would rather trust the ’God of Pleasure and Violence.’ Their first encounter had been pleasant—He even sold Yang some goodwill and left without dispute. In contrast, the ’Mother of Beauty and Fertility’ couldn’t seem to let go of her fascination with the game characters’ beauty, and she eventually got her way.

But the ’game character’ and the ’Mother of Beauty and Fertility’ had a child in the end. This added weight to her bargaining chip, and Yang Qizhou’s inclination toward the ’Dream Realm’ deity grew stronger.

"Wait, is it possible I’ve misunderstood something? Maybe the ’Mystery and Ambiguity’ my Little Bean Ding’s game character heard of isn’t the same as the ’Mystery and Ambiguity’ mentioned by the ’Mother of Beauty and Fertility’?"

"Ugh, it doesn’t matter..."

"One is the ’Mother of Beauty and Fertility,’ and the other is the ’God of Pleasure and Violence.’ Both are Evil Gods—not trustworthy by any means. Unless I can find concrete evidence, I won’t believe either of them."

Unable to draw a conclusion, Yang Qizhou stopped pondering and refocused on reality.

By now, the taxi had reached the road leading to ’Sky Mountain Garden.’ But right here, the driver suddenly stopped and turned back helplessly to say, "Brother, the road ahead is sealed off. You’ll have to get out here."

Sealed off?

Yang Qizhou glanced ahead, and sure enough, the road had been cordoned off, with three or four police vehicles parked nearby. At the forefront was a man dressed in white with a faint scar on his face. He paced back and forth nervously.

’Zhou Xu,’ why is that guy here?

Yang Qizhou’s eyes revealed a hint of irritation as he figured something out...

At the same time, Zhou Xu spotted the taxi. Initially, he didn’t pay much attention, but he abruptly seemed to realize something and quickly strode over, "Greetings, Lamp Bearer..."

"Alright, this is far enough. Thanks, driver." Yang Qizhou checked the meter and paid before stepping out of the car.

The taxi quickly drove away, with the driver muttering, "Such a grand reception. Wonder who this big shot is... Thought he might be a cleaner heading to Sky Mountain Garden, but turns out he’s a VIP."

Yang Qizhou walked at the front, heading towards building A-16 of Sky Mountain Garden, his face growing visibly irritated...

Having shepherded four divine entities and amassed numerous legendary ’miraculous/ancient objects,’ it would take a Divine Sovereign on the real-world level to pose any threat to him now. As a result, he operated with less caution and more freedom.

This lack of restraint was why he didn’t bother disguising his appearance and met openly with the ’occult practitioners.’

Despite that, Yang still loathed dealing with the authorities. He sensed they’d inevitably bring unnecessary trouble, given their extensive resources for combating the Deceit World’s influence on reality. He had to remain cautious of their depths.

And so, Yang strode ahead while Zhou Xu and a large group followed behind silently.

After what felt like ages,

Yang finally arrived at A-16 in Sky Mountain Garden. A woman dressed as a housekeeper had been waiting for him. She respectfully handed him a key, "The young lady has instructed me to give you this access card—it grants entry to all areas except her room."

Under normal circumstances, Yang would’ve cracked a joke, but today, his mood was far from jovial...

Yang turned to Zhou Xu and said flatly:

"Why is there such a crowd following us? Send them back. Just you come inside with me."
