Pretending To Be A Boss
Chapter 876 - 48: Where there's a will, there's a way

"This statement is as playful as saying it takes three steps to fit an elephant into a refrigerator; the only person who could say that the lord of Eden is not unsolvable is Qi Yuan."

However, Tang Xian didn't want to hear the Order Enforcer show off here, he said:

"Where is the ruins of Eden? Since you have been there for a long time, do you know the movement trajectory of the ruins?"

"I don't know that, does your statement imply you have figured something out?" The words of Qi Yuan left the other two listeners somewhat confused.

Tang Xian nodded and said:

"Figured it out. I must go."

Tang Xian understood that Qi Yuan was referring to whether to continue searching for the Beast God's heritage.

This was a great contradiction.

If he continued to search for the Beast God's heritage, Tang Xian indeed did not understand the concept of 'unified twin form', but one thing he was sure of was that whatever benefits he gained, the Lord of Eden would also gain.

But if he did not collect the heritage of the Beast God, not to mention the Lord of Eden, the current Order Enforcer, and the judge who, though schemed against, was also not weak, could easily kill him.

So after some thought, Tang Xian still needed to find the heritage of the Beast God.

"Does it feel helpless knowing that your opponent is waiting for you to make your move there, yet your next move can only be exactly there?"

The voice of Qi Yuan carried a light tone of mockery.

Tang Xian nodded, it now seemed fighting against the Lord of Eden was like fighting against fate, and losing to fate wasn't something shameful.

Qi Yuan continued:

"You want to search for the ruins of Eden, that is a dead move."

"I must go."

"Why?"

"My mother is there."

Tang Xian's attitude was resolute, causing Qi Yuan to falter slightly.

Zhong Yao. Thinking of this person, Qi Yuan's expression grew even stranger.

"I always thought, that you and the couple Zhong Yao and Tang Wen had only a relationship of mutual use."

"You outsmart me, but you don't match me as a person."

"..."

Qi Yuan was silent for a few seconds, finding some truth in these words.

"Did she leave you a message?"

"She asked me to go to the ruins of Eden. Perhaps to settle things there once and for all," Tang Xian said.

"Perhaps it's a trick to get you there to complete the fusion?" Qi Yuan said.

Unified twin form, fusion.

These concepts were unclear to Tang Xian, after all, the process of Qi Yuan turning humans into Judgment Knights or Angel Envoys was too advanced for this era.

And the Heart of Eden, is a technology even more advanced than the Order Enforcer.

"You should think about what I said, why fight against a lesser enemy and seek the tiger's skin?"

"Our standings are different."

Tang Xian knew that this conversation would likely diverge here.

Currently, he was the strongest under the Beast God, but whether it's the judge who was the Beast God, or Qi Yuan as the Order Enforcer, they were both stronger than him.

And it was certain that the Lord of Eden had already acquired human resistance, so as a human, could he still harm the Lord of Eden?

Had Qi Yuan previously tried to turn exceptionally talented humans into mechanical life, besides seeking a container, perhaps also considering this point?

So considering all this, currently, Tang Xian couldn't beat any of the three biggest enemies.

So it might be better to embrace the mistake; there was at least a chance to surpass the other two.

...

This is the deadlock point of this conversation.

The Order Enforcer Qi Yuan wanted Tang Xian to stop searching for the Beast God's heritage, and instead focus on dealing with the judge and searching for the Lord of Eden.

Then by her, the current strongest, to end the Lord of Eden.

Tang Xian decided to continue searching for the Beast God's heritage, at least not letting the human race be the lowest, easily slaughtered force.

But the risk of this action is that the Lord of Eden might become a truly unsolvable existence.

"I have millions of hostages in this place, you should know you don't have any negotiating chips," Qi Yuan warned Tang Xian.

"I used to think the ultimate big boss was you, so you had the right to speak, but at least for now, I am that ultimate big boss. You've already become human, you wouldn't want to go back to being a dog for the Lord of Eden, right?"

Tang Xian was not afraid of threats.

When both parties have the potential to destroy each other, the one who is the most forceful, reckless, and irrational holds the power of speech.

Qi Yuan, initially human and the most rational being, did all she did hoping she could live longer and more securely.

So she stepped back.

"The ninety days pact is dissolved. I can promise you that I won't touch Baichuan City until the Lord of Eden is killed."

"Sorry, I'm quite stingy, I don't agree to anything," Tang Xian stood up, ready to leave the room.

The conversation broke off here.

But whether it was Tang Xian, Tang Jing, or Li Xiaoyu, they all knew this was just a delaying tactic.

...

...

Tang Xian and Li Xiaoyu left Baichuan City and headed for the eastern outskirts.

The two weren't going to meet Bai Shuang, just habitually taking a walk. So they didn't walk the vegetation-covered road in the east suburb but went to the lake on the edge.

The early spring wind still carried some of the chill of winter.

Li Xiaoyu said:

"During the days you were gone, I learned quite a few different dishes from Bai Shuang; are you not going to the mines lately?"

"All answers and destinies are in the ruins of Eden, I'm a bit scared, maybe I won't come back after going there."

Tang Xian and Li Xiaoyu squatted by the lakeside.

This scene was somewhat reminiscent of the lakeside lodge in the mines.

"Then don't go," Li Xiaoyu said.
