Void Jigsaw Puzzle

Although he could boss Qing Nian around, Qing Ao always behaved respectfully in front of the clan leader Qing Yi. Even if he had different opinions in his heart, he didn't dare to show them.
But now, in front of Qingnian, he couldn't act too humble.
"Master Patriarch, the people in Wuming City are under control, don't worry."
In response to the question from the clan leader Qing Yi, Qing Ao answered lightly.
Qing Yi wasn't convinced. "I've said all along that we only need to observe them. There's no need to interact or connect with them. We've resurrected them from the void of the universe to express our goodwill and convey our moral principles to other races in the universe. That's enough. If they can't survive long-term in Wuming City, it means they have no ability or meaning to exist in the universe at all."
Qing Ao felt an irresistible majesty in Qing Yi's calm tone, and felt a heavy pressure coming down on him. He could only bite the bullet and answer, "Master, I'm worried that our enemies will invade us through Wuming City, so I'm taking a proactive approach."
"Hmph...enemy? In the last war, we drove them to the edge of the other side of the universe. I'm afraid they won't be able to jump to our Taibai Planet until the day the universe ends."
Qing Ao was shocked and said quickly, "I really don't know about this situation. It seems that the situation outside is much more optimistic than I imagined. Thank you for your guidance, clan leader."
"Remember, Qing Ao, if you don't want to cause any complications, don't start something lightly. Once you start something, its development will eventually be beyond your control. We were born at the singularity of the Big Bang. To avoid being too lonely, we gave rise to other races, but later on, the situation developed beyond our control. Although we have no pressure to survive now, we can't go back."
After saying this, Qing Yi turned around and left lightly, her figure disappearing in the starlight.
Qing Ao let out a long breath, but there was a fierce light in his eyes.
"Master Qing Ao, it seems that the clan leader is still not convinced by you..."
Only at this time did Qingnian dare to speak.
He remembered his last reminder to Qing Ao, and felt helpless about his leader's stubbornness.
"What do you know? He's been living in luxury for too long. How could he possibly understand the dedication and loyalty of warriors like us? Even if those cosmic hooligans were truly banished to the other side of the universe, would they truly let it go? If they come back, Nameless City will be our weak link! Our initial slip of the pen, our goodwill, will be exploited and become our weakness!"
After listening to the leader's impassioned speech, Qingnian still said cautiously: "But... if you hadn't taken the initiative to contact them, perhaps the clan leader's idea would have been more convenient?"
"Qingnian! Are you doubting my decision?"
"I dare not... I am just deducing a hypothetical possibility."
"Then stop rehearsing! What's the point of rehearsing something that's already happened? The current situation is that we've already intervened in Nameless City, and we're going to use their demands on us to cause chaos. We saved them out of moral obligation, and now, if they perish on their own, it's none of our business. And if they cease to exist, we can legitimately take back Nameless City, and our defenses will no longer have any vulnerabilities."
Qing Ao expressed his request very clearly, and Qing Nian also listened to it in his heart.
"That's the direct order you need... to make them mess around..."
He felt a lot more relaxed.
Although his direct leader was Qing Ao, Qing Yi was the clan leader after all, and he couldn't afford to offend anyone. Before today, Qing Ao's instructions had always been somewhat ambiguous, leaving him unsure how to implement them. But now, he understood everything.
We don't have to resort to personal attacks or even take their lives to treat the people in Wuming City, but we can instigate internal strife among them and let them kill each other.
"I understand, Master Qing Ao!"
Qingnian lowered her head and answered, her voice clearer than ever before.
......
As the night deepened, the crowd in the "warm" bar dispersed in twos and threes.
Even Zhang Pengju and Du Yiying, after saying goodbye to Guo Ling, took advantage of their drunkenness and hugged each other crookedly, their faces almost pressed together, and walked out without any signs of separating.
"You two are obviously lucky. Both husbands and wives are still together. Why are you entangled with each other like this now? What's your intention? Are you trying to comfort each other after being laid off?"
Guo Ling held the empty wine glass, a little drunk, and squinted his eyes at their backs, with confusion and disdain in his eyes.
He stood up and returned to his own table, only to see Old Man Liu and Fan Ting talking about something while shaking their heads. There was still half a glass of wine left in the glasses in front of them, but there were only a few peanuts and smashed cucumbers left on the table.
Only Zhong Chenmu sat there wide awake, his eyes unusually bright.
"How does it feel to be the only one sober while everyone else is drunk?" Guo Ling smiled and sat beside him.
"It feels good. I know a lot of their secrets all of a sudden."
"Fortunately, I revealed all my secrets to you on the first day." Guo Ling said.
"If I drink too much, maybe there will be more?"
"..."
"What should we do now? Wait for them to finish talking?" Zhong Chenmu looked at Old Man Liu and Fan Ting opposite him.
This was his first time in a bar and he had no experience on how to end it.
Guo Ling thought for a moment and said, "I just chatted with my former colleague and got some new information. They were just a little tipsy, so they talked a lot, but they didn't drink too much. There aren't many people in the bar now, so it's a good time to talk about something. I think it's better for the four of us to have a small meeting to discuss what to do next... In fact, if I hadn't met Old Man Liu tonight, I would have had this idea too. When that old man - Pierce - brought you here, I followed Fan Ting here, just wanting to have a good chat with you. Including when Fan Ting went to the massage parlor to find you later, I was downstairs to keep watch, which was also my idea. I didn't expect Old Man Liu to jump out of the sky halfway, and then you saved him - to be honest, you asked me just now how you saved him, and I was just as curious, because you weren't there, but you were able to save people."
Zhong Chenmu smiled and said, "After laying so much groundwork, the key point is still the last sentence, right?"
"You're judging others by your own standards. But let me describe the situation. Old Liu was standing on the edge of the roof, about halfway up, when an invisible platform appeared in the air. His feet landed on it, and like me when I jumped into the river, he instantly felt the urge to not die. So, he trembled and explored forward, discovering another platform below the edge. It was like stepping down an invisible staircase. There weren't many steps, after all, the entire building was only six stories high. In reality, if it weren't for you, he wouldn't have died from the fall, but he would have been in excruciating pain."
"Stairs?" After hearing this, Zhong Chenmu's mind flashed with green numbers again, and then it was reset to zero without any suspense: "000000".
He did not answer Guo Ling immediately, but kept recalling the scenes of these zero-setting times, trying to find some patterns.
But he didn't get what he wanted, even though he was the only sober person in the "hot" bar.
