I'm not a drama god

Upon seeing the diary, Lee Laide's heart tightened.

He felt like a child whose deepest wounds had been exposed, a surge of inexplicable tension and shame welling up inside him. He rushed to Chen Ling's side and grabbed the diary tightly in his hand.

"you……"

"What exactly did you do?"

Li Leide gritted his teeth, but Chen Ling did not respond to his question. He simply looked quietly at the Chengtian Realm, a gentle breeze ruffling his hair, his ruby-like eyes as serene as water.

"Didn't you say you were going to settle things with me? Why didn't you kill me?" Li Lai De pressed again. "And why were you reading my diary?!"

"Lee Laid".

Chen Ling interrupted him.

Li Laid was taken aback. In the gentle breeze, he saw Chen Ling slowly turn her head to look at him, her eyes revealing an indescribable complex emotion...

"You...don't let me down."

Li Laide stood there, stunned.

He didn't understand what Chen Ling was saying, nor did he understand why Chen Ling looked at him like that... But he could sense that Chen Ling had made a very important decision, so much so that her gaze seemed to span the past and the future, so profound that it was unimaginable.

Chen Ling ultimately did not change Li Laide's past and personality... The reasons behind this are complex. Besides various concerns, for a moment, the image of the Fifth Generation Red King appeared in Chen Ling's mind.

Regardless of his relationship with his master, for a time, he truly became a pawn. Along this journey, no one understood better than him the pain of feeling even one's own existence is an illusion; his confusion, his doubts, were like mountains weighing heavily on his heart…

It seems that he was just a hair's breadth away from becoming the very thing he hated most.

Chen Ling knew very well that for the "nameless actor" who bore the weight of humanity's fate, perhaps that was the right way. But at least at this moment... he didn't want to make a choice that went against his own heart.

He wanted to see how far he could guide Li Laid, even without using the methods of the Fifth Generation Red King.

"Then what you meant by ending it all..."

Chen Ling slowly stood up. "My break with you has just ended."

"...It's over?" Li Laid was stunned. His thoughts raced in an instant. He frowned, looked down at his hands, and hesitated before asking, "What...did you do to me?"

Chen Ling did not answer.

sizzle-

Just then, a series of electromagnetic disturbances came from the portable radio in his pocket.

Chen Ling frowned, took the radio out of his pocket, and the intermittent sound rang in his ears. Immediately afterward, a chilling killing intent began to permeate the air!

Li Laid felt the temperature around him drop rapidly. He shivered and instinctively asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Ling's scarlet eyes, like those of a ferocious beast, gazed towards a certain direction in the Chengtian Realm, and she spoke coldly:

"You're really...seeking death."

……

Li Shangfeng walked alone across the bustling Xuanwu Avenue, step by step from the glittering commercial district to his own dimly lit and quiet neighborhood. This sense of disconnect made him feel as if he had been detached from the world, as if everything that had just happened was nothing but a dream.

To be honest, Li Shangfeng was quite envious of the people living on Xuanwu Avenue. He had fantasized that if he and his sister lived there, they would be living a life of luxury, with everyone in the highest-end places in the Chengtian Realm, making others extremely envious... How awesome would that be?

However, fantasy is just fantasy. There are always things more important than that kind of extravagant lifestyle.

Li Shangfeng walked on the quiet, dimly lit street, putting his conversation with Brand out of his mind. He took a deep breath of the cool air and slowly exhaled... His heart calmed down.

At the same time, a faint smell of burning entered his nostrils.

"Something's on fire..."

Li Shangfeng muttered to himself.

Just as Li Shangfeng was filled with doubt, several figures carrying buckets of water rushed past him, and noise and commotion came from the next street...

Li Shangfeng looked in the direction of the sound and saw a red light illuminating the night sky as if it were daytime.

Fire?

and many more……

That direction is...

Li Shangfeng's pupils suddenly contracted as a possibility he couldn't believe surged into his mind... He immediately took a step forward and rushed at full speed towards the direction of the surging flames!

……

The raging fire licked at the walls of the auto repair shop, and the high temperature made the metal shelves inside glow red-hot.

Thick smoke now blanketed every corner of the factory, like a suffocating and deadly black cloud, reducing visibility to a minimum. At this concentration, it was impossible for humans to breathe normally.

"Damn..."

In the sea of ​​fire, the fist of the Clubs 8 clenched silently!

Veins bulged with anger on the boy's hands and neck. His eyes were bloodshot and ferocious. He roared and tried to punch the wall to vent his rage, but his fist just passed right through it...

“Those beasts… if we weren’t currently without physical bodies, I would definitely…” Plum Blossom 8 was trembling with anger.

Several equally illusory figures emerged from the sea of ​​fire, exchanging glances... It was the first time they had ever seen the usually gentle and polite young man reveal such fierce killing intent.

Not only Plum Blossom 8, but all the members of the Dusk Club standing here at this moment were like volcanoes in their hearts that had been ignited, with anger clearly written on their faces.

"Calm down, Club," said Nine of Diamonds, trying to comfort her.

"At least no one is injured so far... Li Wanhua is still alive, so these shelves and boxes won't suffer too much damage."

"They're absolutely insane!!" Heart 7 exclaimed angrily. "If they're so capable, why don't they come and cause trouble openly?! What kind of skill is it to kidnap a child when all the adults aren't home?!"

"We've already notified Lord Red King immediately; he should be here soon..."

"I hope nothing unexpected happens to Li Wanhua. I quite like this child."

"Is anyone following Li Wanhua?"

“Our people have already followed them. No matter where they take Li Wanhua, we can pinpoint her location.”

"Sigh... with Red Heart 9's temper, if he comes back and sees this scene... wouldn't he be furious?"

"I suspect it's more than just being furious..."

"..."

Just as several members of the evening commune were talking, a series of exclamations rang out from outside the repair shop!

The next second, a figure recklessly rushed into the sea of ​​fire, like an unstoppable train, smashing apart the teetering shelves, and then stood amidst the raging flames, eyes blazing with fury...

"Do not……"

"How could this happen... how could this happen?!"

“Wanhua…”

"Wan Hua!!!"

Flames licked at Li Shangfeng's skin, leaving charred marks, but he seemed oblivious to the pain, staring at everything before him with a vengeful glare.
