Gu Sheng pressed his temples, his head aching, and several images flashed through his mind.

Yes, he remembered being hit by Lu Sijian. She was very angry, but he didn't fight back.

What was he thinking at that moment? It was a mixture of stubbornness and guilt, resentment and trepidation, but absolutely no fear or despair...

What happened after Lu Sijian left? Yes, someone came.

At that time, he was able to move freely and was even in a good mood, but he stubbornly asked, "What, do you regret hitting me?"

Until he saw the person's face.

All the light and cheerful memories faded in an instant, fear seized his breath, and the heavy darkness almost overwhelmed him.

What happened after that?

His head was throbbing like it was going to explode, but he just couldn't remember what happened after that.

It wasn't until much later that a memory resurfaced.

He was thrown back into the same alley, covered in wounds and on the verge of death, until Mu Liangyue passed by and rescued him.

So why did he mistakenly graft the two memories together?

No, that's not right. When he was thrown back into the alley, there was a faint voice that almost spoke.

"Now that I've learned from experience, I'm not going to go too far. I thought another one was going to die."

After a pause, the other person kicked him again, "But a bastard like you, even if you play a little harder, you probably won't die."

He opened his eyes and stared intently at the other person, his eyes filled with deep-seated hatred.

"What are you looking at me for? Want revenge?" the voice laughed. "Since that's the case, then live with hatred. Remember, the person who caused you so much suffering is Lu Sijian."

No, no, no! That's not how it is! A voice inside screamed frantically.

But the other person's eyes suddenly seemed to turn into whirlpools, as if they wanted to suck him in, and he couldn't look away at all.

Soon his eyelids became so heavy he couldn't lift them, and his consciousness began to blur...

Overwhelmed by anger and frustration, Gu Sheng suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

My temples throbbed, and my head felt like it was being torn apart, as if something was trying to break free and burst out.

Finally, unable to bear the excruciating pain any longer, he swayed and collapsed without warning.

"boss!"

"Brother Sheng!"

-

Sheng Yunchao carried Lu Sijian through the park and a residential area, stopping on a secluded path.

A black car was parked quietly by the roadside. When the driver saw them coming, he hurriedly opened the car door.

Soon the black car drove into the night.

"Why are you laughing so happily?" Sheng Yunchao was infected by her smile, and a smile appeared on his lips.

Lu Sijian: "Yeah, I'm happy. I finally beat that bastard up."

She had been annoyed with Gu Sheng for a long time. The schemer was secretly plotting against others in the shadows, but she never thought that one day she would be the one to be plotted against and beaten up.

In the Divine Kingdom, at the control panel, the black-haired priest had been looking grim for some time.

He saw Sheng Yunchao laughing and thought coldly, "What right do you have to laugh? She beat up Gu Sheng and knows what price she paid."

Immediately afterwards, Sheng Yunchao grasped Lu Sijian's wrist and gently massaged it for her.

"Your arm hurts so much when I accidentally touched it just now when you were leaning against me. Did you hurt it?"

Sheng Yunchao could guess that she had probably used some kind of prop again, and the side effects were backfiring many times over.

He also knew that Lu Sijian hadn't paid attention to the surveillance cameras the previous times she made her moves, which wasn't like her usual meticulous style, so there must be some force helping her block the surveillance.

The gaze softened considerably towards Lu Sijian, yet it still held a strong hostility towards him.

Sheng Yunchao knew how wonderful she was, so he wasn't surprised that someone else was just as infatuated with her as he was.

What he was dissatisfied with was that gods were supposed to be high above and omnipotent, yet they couldn't even help her eliminate the side effects; they were simply useless.

"By the way, did you hire a hacker to block the surveillance for you? That guy's skills aren't that great, he almost got you caught in a pincer attack." He subtly implied something about the other person.

Lu Sijian glanced at him. Here he comes again. This man has started brewing tea again.

"It was just an accident." She smiled.

"Is it really just an accident?" Sheng Yunchao's expression turned serious. "There's no such thing as a coincidence in the world. Gu Sheng's assistant reacted way too quickly."

The incidents at the bar tonight were all his doing.

He could hear Lu Sijian's thoughts and never took her warnings as nonsense. He had long been secretly keeping an eye on Gu Sheng and those bars.

He had, of course, investigated the people around Gu Sheng as well.

Gu Sheng's assistant was ruthless but lacked wisdom, and his impulsive and impatient nature made him vulnerable to being held back by those matters.

At that critical moment, he managed to spare a thought to check if his boss had arrived at the club, and immediately ordered the car to turn around.

It's not normal no matter how you look at it.

“Although I don’t want to think the worst of people, you haven’t been betrayed by them, have you?” Sheng Yunchao asked, raising his eyes.

-

"Crack!"

In the divine realm, in front of the control panel, the black-haired priest suddenly crushed the star chart in his hand.

Several white-clad servants, noticing his darkening expression, immediately prostrated themselves on the ground, not daring to utter a sound.

The black-haired priest glanced at the servant on the ground out of the corner of his eye, but quickly resumed his usual expressionless demeanor.

"You all stand down."

After the white-robed attendants had all left, the black-haired priest frowned and explained to Lu Sijian in her mind.

I didn't betray you. It really wasn't me. We're business partners; I wouldn't resort to such underhanded tactics.

Therefore, never believe the other party's malicious attempts to sow discord.

"I know, you've already shown me your sincerity in cooperating..." Lu Sijian had just finished answering in her mind when she felt her hand tighten.

Sheng Yunchao took her hand and gently kissed the back of it. "And I will never betray you."

The young man's eyes were captivating and gentle, drawing people in unconsciously and making them want to immerse themselves in them.

It's like a ferocious beast sheathing its claws and fangs, offering you all its devotion.

Lu Sijian: "...I know."

The black-haired priest looked down at the mortal with an expressionless face.

Ha, a shameless schemer. Don't think you can pretend to be kind by hiding your claws and fangs.

According to the original astrological calculations, Sheng Yunchao is the most likely candidate to become the biggest boss in this small world, with the risk of world destruction almost at its maximum.

That is why the priests joined forces and set up a spacetime rift in advance, hoping to bring this person to the divine kingdom.

Unexpectedly, the plan ultimately went awry, and the other party cunningly escaped.

However, it wasn't because of Lu Sijian's warning; at that time, Lu Sijian was still unconscious.

He then used the astrological chart to perform another calculation and found that the possibility of the other party destroying the world was greatly reduced, so he did not forcibly extradite the other party.

After all, if they fail again and the other side discovers the existence of the divine kingdom, that would be a real catastrophe.

However, even if Sheng Yunchao's danger level has decreased, it cannot change the fact that he is a demon.
