Because of the little cub, no one else noticed the changes in His Majesty the Emperor on the bed.

Ming Yunqi never expected that as soon as he opened his eyes, he would meet a pair of big eyes full of tears.

Ming Jiang's eyes were full of confusion and anxiety, as if silently expressing fear.

Ming Yunqi couldn't help but feel soft in his heart. He sat up from the bed and held the cub in his arms.

Strangely, there was an identical Ming Yunqi left on the bed, still unconscious. Ming Jiang looked at his father who was holding him, and then looked at his father who was lying there motionless, his little head was unable to react for a while.

Why are there two dads?

His little paw tentatively tapped his father's chest, as if to confirm whether the man in front of him was real.

"What's wrong? Don't you recognize your father after not seeing him for a while?" Ming Yunqi's teasing voice sounded above his head, with a hint of teasing and doting. Ming Jiang raised his head and saw his father's familiar eyes, and his heart was slightly relieved.

"I knew this kid wouldn't follow the plot, luckily I was prepared." Bai Lian's figure appeared behind them, his tone was full of pride and helplessness. He crossed his arms, his eyes swept back and forth between Ming Yunqi and Ming Jiang, as if evaluating something.

"Shut up. I told you to take good care of him, and this is how you do it?" Ming Yunqi glanced at Bai Lian coldly, with a reproachful tone in his voice.

Bai Lian shrugged without refutation, but raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.

"Daddy..." At this time, the frightened little cub's spiritual power was retracted, and he returned to the appearance of a chubby cub. Ming Yunqi only felt his arm sink, and before he could react, a lotus-like white fat arm hugged his neck.

"Woo woo, Daddy, you scared Ming Jiang." The little cub's voice was filled with tears, and it was obvious that he was frightened by the scene just now. Ming Yunqi's heart tightened, and he quickly patted Ming Jiang's back gently, and said softly: "Be good, be good, Daddy is acting, we cubs are not afraid."

After a while, Ming Yunqi explained the whole story to the little cub. From his father, Ming Jiang learned that this world was just a fake world, created by his father and Uncle Bai Lian to survive the world upgrade. Ming Jiang seemed to understand but not quite, and his little head was full of doubts.

But the little cub is a little confused. Will the world really be upgraded if it follows the plot?

What’s the point of upgrading a world that is full of holes?

According to the original plot, Mingxu seized the throne, the court was in constant party struggle, the border was in turmoil, the people were living in poverty, and war was raging everywhere. Is this really the only way for them to upgrade?

As Ming Jiang was thinking, he felt the atmosphere around him stagnate. He turned his head and met the serious faces of Ming Yunqi and Bai Lian. They looked at Ming Jiang solemnly, as if they were struck by lightning.

Just now, Ming Jiangyi couldn't help but speak out the doubts in his heart.

The cub's careless words made the two adults around him fall into deep thought. Ming Yunqi and Bai Lian looked at each other and saw the deep thought in each other's eyes.

Yes, why are they so sure that if they follow the original plot, the world will really deviate from the plot as they imagined?

Bai Lian should be the one who did the most system tasks among them. His original task was to complete the plot tasks for those supporting characters who had developed self-awareness.

Bai Lian's eyes flickered slightly, thinking of the protagonists who were tortured to death by him. He didn't seem to follow the original plot, but the system still judged that his mission was successful. Otherwise, he would not have come to this world to see this little cub again.

The more Bai Lian thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He couldn't help but look at the little light ball 8517 that had been nestling in Ming Jiang's arms and pretending to be dead. A hint of sternness flashed across his eyes, and before the little cub could react, he reached out and lifted 8517 up.

"Come on, little ball of light, tell me! What's going on?" Bai Lian's voice was a little threatening, and it was obvious that he didn't intend to let this seemingly innocent little ball of light go easily.

"Boss, what are you talking about?" 8517 was bewildered after being lifted up again. It couldn't understand why they lifted it up while talking. It was listening to their analysis and felt that it made sense. Suddenly it was cueed and was still a little confused. After a long time, it realized that Bai Lian was asking it about the world upgrade.

How could it know such a profound question? It was just a newly born small system, and it was the weakest cub companion system in the system bureau. How could it know the question that even the big guys couldn't figure out?

"Where did all the original characters in the book who developed self-awareness go?" Bai Lian continued to ask, with an unquestionable sense of oppression in his tone.

8517 did know a little bit, and it answered carefully: "Some of them developed self-awareness and were dissatisfied with the original roles. They were recruited by the System Bureau and became hosts like you, and went to other worlds to perform missions. Another part was affected by the plot and knew their ending before the original plot began. They were unwilling to accept it, so they changed their fate. Ah, yes, although some self-aware supporting characters turned evil and caused the world to be in a mess, and the System Bureau needed to send hosts to correct the chaos, there were still a very small number of people with tenacity and successfully changed their fate."

"But this situation is very rare. There are indeed some worlds that have completed their evolution without the intervention of the system. And after the world has completed its evolution, the system cannot invade it without the consent of the world plane, so they don't know how they completed their self-evolution."

After listening to 8517's explanation, Bai Lian frowned, as if thinking about something. Ming Yunqi also fell into deep thought. Obviously, the little cub's question touched some doubts deep in his heart. Is the plot direction that they have been relying on really as reliable as they thought?

Ming Jiang looked at the serious expressions of the two adults and felt a little uneasy. He pulled Ming Yunqi's sleeve and asked in a low voice: "Dad, did we do something wrong?"

Ming Yunqi came back to his senses, gently touched Ming Jiang's head, and said softly: "No, baby, you did nothing wrong. It is you who let us see another possibility."

Bai Lian also nodded, with a glimmer in his eyes: "Perhaps, we have always relied too much on the so-called 'plot'. The real world upgrade may not need to follow the established script."
