I'm not a drama god

After the front-line program in Xuanyu Realm ended, Chen Ling finally turned off the radio and slowly walked towards the palace.

After a few days of stalemate, the Illusion Mountain Range finally launched another fierce attack. Although the real information that can be obtained from this program is very limited, from the words of some people, Chen Ling can vaguely feel that the attack of the Illusion Mountain Range this time may be more fierce than the last time.

Chen Ling actually doesn't care about the life or death of Xuanyu Realm, but the other people of the 6th generation have finally gained a foothold in Xuanyu Realm and have obtained legal identities. If this realm disappears just like that, all their efforts will be wasted.

The Ghostly Abyss is a land of disasters, not suitable for human survival at all, so the 6th generation will have to return sooner or later...

Moreover, the battle situation in Xuanyu Realm is critical now, the sooner they return, the better.

Chen Ling calculated the time. At this time, the six-year-old generation should have gone to bed. He put away the radio and came to the gate of the palace.

At this moment, Chen Ling was slightly stunned.

Is it an illusion?

Why does it feel like... the atmosphere in this palace is softer?

Originally, the palace gave Chen Ling a feeling of coldness and solemnity, but now the temperature here seems to have warmed up a little, as if the aura here is being harmonized and changed by some force, and it has a faint sense of human touch.

Chen Ling hesitated for a moment, but still walked into the palace cautiously. He seemed to have noticed something and looked in the direction of the room for generation 6.

"Cube... why are you doing this?"

He looked somewhat helpless.

After Chen Ling took a few steps, he discovered that the originally dim palace had become much brighter.

Hundreds of candles were placed in every corner of the palace, the flames flickering and connected to each other. Although it was not brightly lit, the faint candlelight intertwined together, still dispelling most of the darkness in the palace, like a patch of orange-yellow starlight from the sky, falling and covering the earth.

Chen Ling was stunned for a long time before he walked slowly through the crowd. His bright red costume slowly penetrated deeper into the candlelight. After a moment, a figure in a leather jacket came into his sight.

Jian Changsheng was seen holding a bunch of candles and walking carefully in the palace. His eyes carefully scanned every corner here. If he found that there was not bright enough somewhere, he would immediately add another candle.

He looked at the palace that was lighting up before him and muttered:

"This is more like a place where people live..."

As if he felt that the candles were almost lit, Jian Changsheng nodded in satisfaction, turned around and prepared to go back to the house to sleep, but suddenly he saw the man in red robes standing behind him and was startled.

"Fuck, Red Heart! How come you walk like a ghost without making any sound??"

"……What are you doing?"

"Light up the lamp." Jian Changsheng shrugged. "This palace is so dark that it makes people feel upset. You don't have any electric lights here, so you can only use candles to light it up..."

Chen Ling looked at his arms in confusion, "Where did you get so many candles?"

"It's the room across from us. I opened the door and saw a lot of candles inside, as well as some strange pink whips, ropes and stuff... By the way, what are those for?"

Chen Ling:......

He held it in for a long time, and could only reply: "I don't know either, that was used to mock disasters in the past."

"Anyway, I thought there were enough candles, so I ordered some more... How is it? Doesn't it look much better now?" Jian Changsheng brushed the dust off his hands and spoke proudly.

"…You don't have to do this. I'm not afraid of the dark."

"I know, but I don't like it. If I live in such a dark and cold place every day, my mood will become bad."

Chen Ling frowned and looked at him, "You guys, are you really planning to live here forever?"

"What else? You can't go to the human realm." Jian Changsheng said as a matter of course, "We've already discussed it. Cube said shamelessly that it's convenient to protect you if he's close to you. Plum said he likes your wine. It doesn't matter where I live... Anyway, we can't just leave you here and go to the Xuanyu Realm to eat and drink, right?"

Jian Changsheng patted Chen Ling on the shoulder and said, "Sharing the hard times together is what brothers do!"

Chen Ling looked into his eyes and remained silent for a long time.

"The Ghostly Abyss is not suitable for human survival. You don't have to do this for me... and I am here, living a good life."

Jian Changsheng glanced at him and did not answer. Instead, he walked slowly to the side, bent down, and placed another candle in the darkness in the corner.

He lightly struck the match, and a flame ignited. The flickering flame slowly approached the candle, and also stained his cheeks with a layer of gold:

"Heart, you know what?"

"I grew up in the Yan family and never had any friends. Only a few relatives took care of me occasionally... But after the fall of Aurora City, I lost everything."

"When I came out of the Aurora Realm, I was like a lost dog. Only the Twilight Society took me in. And the person I am most familiar with in the Twilight Society is you, who are of the same generation as me... Although I often dislike you and you often bully me, after going through the world together, I have long regarded you as a friend from the bottom of my heart... and a best friend at that."

"Later, I met Square and Plum Blossom... Although our personalities are very different, we surprisingly get along well."

"When you and Fangkuai worked together to grab the Tongtian Star position for me in the Tianshu Realm, I knew that you would be the most important brothers in my life... You may not believe it, but before that, I had never received any gifts."

"Imperial Dao Ancient Treasure, Wuji Realm, Fusion Faction... I don't know what you think, Hongxin, but for me, we have been through so much together, and I have long regarded you as someone closer than my family. To be honest... I don't care about the life and death of the human realm. When I was in the most difficult and painful time, the human realm didn't help me at all, and you were the ones who kept me moving forward."

"If something happens to you, I will take the lead to rescue you; if you leave, I will take the initiative to find you; it's not because I, Jian Changsheng, have nothing to do, but because you are the most important people in my life. If you were replaced by a diamond or a club, I would still go, and I would tie up the rest of you and go with me."

"You can call me paranoid or narrow-minded, but in my heart, the friendship of the six generations is above everything else."

Jian Changsheng gently lit the candle in the corner. He stood up and looked back at Chen Ling.

His eyes were more serious than ever before:

"I can't leave you alone in this cold palace."

Chen Ling stood there for a long time like a sculpture, with a complicated look in her eyes...

He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but no words came out.

"……I see."

Finally, the figure in the bright red robe turned silently, walked through the candlelit corridor, and disappeared into the depths of the palace.
