Working: Start by earning the boss a hundred million!

Chapter 156 Are you sure the mountains and rivers will remain unchanged?
"This vast expanse of land, where countless living beings will live in the future, must have some rules." Shang Xingjian stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed on the still empty mountains and rivers.

Cheng Mai: "It is said that the spirit world values ​​strength above all else. Who can surpass your strength?"

Shang Xingjian chuckled softly, his fingertips tapping the back of his hand behind his back.

“You’ve been acting a bit pretentious lately,” Cheng Mai suddenly said.

"Hahahaha..." Shang Xingjian burst into laughter instantly, as if all his somberness had vanished. He sat down on the ground and pulled Cheng Mai's hand to make her sit down with him.

Cheng Mai was reluctant, but he still sat down.

But after sitting down and looking at the clouds and mist below, Cheng Mai felt a sense of familiarity.

"The ferocious beasts of this world also belong to this world, why do you insist on capturing them all?"

"So, you're like me, doing nothing all day?"

"No, no, when I have something to do, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle this cursed bell."

"What is your mission in the void?"

The sounds around him gradually faded away. Cheng Mai looked at Shang Xingjian, who was lying beside him, and asked, "What exactly is your mission in the void?"

She spoke suddenly, without warning.

After she finished speaking, she realized what she had done, but she didn't know why she had asked the question.
Shang Xingjian seemed to smile slightly, "It's been too long, I forgot."

Cheng Mai: "What kind of fish also stole your memories?"

"No, it's just that I'm getting old and my memory isn't good." Shang Xingjian clearly didn't intend to answer the question directly.

"Is everything Cheng Ming said true?"

"What do you think is real and what is fake?" Shang Xingjian turned to look at Cheng Mai, but seemed impatient for her answer after asking the question.

"Well, he's not wrong. If I fail and anger the new creator god, the human world will enter purgatory. The world that should have disappeared in an instant will become a place of misery, where everyone will suffer endless torment before they can be freed, leaving behind endless resentment. The future world will be boundless in darkness, and evil will breed without restraint."

"What if you win?"

"The new creator god has vanished, the void realm has returned to normal, the supreme god has returned to his position, and the world is at peace." Shang Xingjian said, looking at Cheng Mai with a smile, "Don't you think I'm great?"

"Your chances of winning..."

"zero."

Cheng Mai: "...Jian from the Merchant Guild, you really are..."

“Lawless.” Shang Xingjian added, “I think so too.”

"So it's not unreasonable for them to stop me. They have to give an explanation to that person in the Void Realm who refuses to show himself. If I fail, at least the gods will protect the living beings of the world and let them leave in peace." Shang Xingjian put his hands behind his head. "But we haven't reached the final step yet. Who can guarantee that zero won't turn into one?"

"What can I do to help you?" Cheng Mai asked.

"Aren't you afraid?"

"Defeat without a fight is not my style."

The merchant remained silent, listening to the wind.

Cheng Mai turned to look at Shang Xingjian, "Have you always been this irritating?"

"Wait until you regain your memories and judge for yourself. Maybe you'll find me incredibly cute and love me to death."

"Show some face."

"These days, if you have any sense of shame, you'll lose your wife," Shang Xingjian said confidently, continuing to watch the clouds drift by.

Cheng Mai's mind was filled with a thousand thoughts, yet she felt she had sorted them out. She looked intently at Shang Xingjian, her unease growing stronger.

"Boss Shang."

Jinlong's voice suddenly rang out, interrupting Cheng Mai's thoughts. Shang Xingjian seemed somewhat annoyed, but still slowly stood up, "You've come at just the right time."

Upon hearing this seemingly casual remark, Jinlong let out a confused "Ah," wondering why it didn't sound like a compliment.

"What Boss Shang said..."

"I'm praising you," Shang Xingjian said with a fake smile.

Jinlong paused for a moment, then said it was more like he was being scolded.

"Young Master Cheng." Jinlong stopped talking to Shang Xingjian and greeted Cheng Mai. After greeting him, he said, "We've searched everywhere we can in the back mountain, but we haven't found what Boss Shang is looking for, and Sanze..."

"Can't find it?" Shang Xingjian looked up and down at Jinlong.

"Boss Shang, you didn't even specify what you wanted. I've searched every nook and cranny of the back mountain with Sanze." Jinlong said helplessly, "We've dug every corner and every inch of the place."

The main problem was that Boss Shang only told him to take Sanze to look for something, without specifying what, which put him in a difficult position.

"Dig three feet into the ground?" Shang Xingjian raised his hand and closed the barrier, and they returned to the back mountain.

"You see, the place is only so big. I searched the mountain many times last night, and I really didn't find anything strange." This mountain is very big to ordinary people, but it is not that big to him. If he revealed his true form, he could take over the entire mountain.

"Could it be buried too deep?" Shang Xingjian muttered to himself.

Cheng Mai happened to overhear this, and she turned to look at Shang Xingjian, "You buried it yourself?"

"Hiss, this..."

"You buried it yourself and expect others to find it?" Cheng Mai was shocked; this person's shamelessness was still being pushed to new heights.

"It's mainly because it's been buried for too long, and I don't remember where it was buried," Shang Xingjian said, blatantly trying to shirk responsibility.

So what exactly was buried?

Jinlong didn't ask, but gestured for Chengmai to ask, since he was the one in charge of this matter, but only Chengmai could get the answer.

"The divine consciousness of the Supreme God." Shang Xingjian did not hide anything and even gave the answer quite readily.

Cheng Mai: "..." He moved his lips, but held back the urge to curse.

Her stamina is really good now.

Jinlong was stunned for a moment, even doubting that he had heard correctly.

"What Boss Shang means is..."

"It's exactly what you think." Shang Xingjian's tone became increasingly irritating, but he was also somewhat embarrassed. This mountain didn't look very big, and he had hidden his things here because the spiritual energy was suitable and the timing and location were perfect. He didn't expect it to be so hard to find now.

"Is Boss Shang referring to the divine consciousness of Lord Yunting?" Although it had already been confirmed, Jinlong still wanted to clarify and confirm it.

Lord Yunting, the master of clouds and rain, is said to be able to transform into a dragon.

But it is not a dragon.

After all, dragons are divine beasts, and there is a fundamental difference between them and supreme gods.

The reason why the Cloud Pavilion God could transform into a dragon was probably because he felt that the dragon was powerful.

What is the relationship between Yunting Shenjun and Sanze?
“When the gods perished, those who went to heaven and the sea always needed to be given some kind of identity.” Shang Xingjian finished speaking and happened to make eye contact with Cheng Mai. He immediately added, “Except for you.”

Cheng Mai's involvement in General Meng An's love triangle was indeed unexpected, and since the God of Annihilation had disappeared so quickly, he had no time to make any arrangements.

"After so many years, are you sure the place where you were buried is still here?" Cheng Mai asked.

"Time flows on, but the mountains and rivers remain unchanged; perhaps..."

"Digging through mountains to build roads, filling in the sea to create a new sky, are you sure the landscape will remain unchanged?" Cheng Mai coldly reminded him.
