How to put it? Ling Xiao felt that only two words could describe it: he was out of character!

I can't get into it at all; this messy, constantly changing setup...

He glanced up at the eunuch beside him...

It's fine if you don't look, but it's better not to look at all... What kind of good eunuch wears sunglasses?

"Blind...blind man." Ling Xiao didn't even know how to bring it up.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty used to call this servant Eunuch Qi. But it's because this servant is blind and useless that Your Majesty has come to despise me... Please, Your Majesty, grant this servant death!" Black Bear said in a strained voice as he knelt down, holding the box in both hands. He showed no signs of old age, looking as if to say, "Go ahead and kill me if you dare."

"Eunuch Qi... Eunuch Qi."

"The slave is here."

"Sigh! Let's just execute him." Ling Xiao waved his hand. Seeing that Ling Xiao was serious, Hei Xiazi got up from the ground and said, "Young Master, you're not right. Why are you gouging out my eyes after just playing around?"

"Shall we still play?" Ling Xiao asked, glancing at him sideways.

"This isn't fun. You're about to execute your servant, how can we play?" Hei Xiazi said, looking quite indignant.

"Then let's start over. Teach me how I should say it," Ling Xiao coaxed him patiently.

Hei Xiazi was immediately delighted and hurriedly pulled Ling Xiao along, imitating a rough voice, saying, "You should say that Eunuch Qi has made a meritorious contribution in finding the treasure, and reward him with three thousand taels of gold, countless treasures, three thousand beauties, and appoint him as a first-rank marquis and general who protects the country."

"I'll give you my entire empire, do you want it?" Ling Xiao joked with Hei Xiazi.

An invisible sense of oppression swept over him, and Hei Xiazi instantly became serious, feeling goosebumps all over his body. If he lived in ancient times and was a eunuch, he would really have to kneel and kowtow. Ling Xiao's expression and tone were truly a model of smiling while hiding a knife.

"The blind man has truly experienced what it means to be unfathomable to the emperor's heart. The Emperor Fruit is really a steal!" Black Bear smirked.

"Speak properly, don't hold it in." Seeing that he was no longer acting, Ling Xiao punched him, and then the two of them returned to their modern attire.

Ling Xiao handed Hei Xiazi a cigarette and asked him, "When did you escape from there?"

“My father has never been this good to me.” Black Bear’s tone was somewhat meaningful.

“You know I’m not one to lie to myself; that longing for a father’s love only stayed with me when I was a child,” he said, taking a deep drag on his cigarette.

"But things seem a bit different here. I didn't expect the young master to have a dream of unifying the world," Black Bear joked.

"All I can think about is this person dying today or that person dying tomorrow. Only when they're all dead can I feel at ease. I have no desire to become an emperor or unify the country. But if they're all dead, what kind of paradise or dream is this? It's just something imposed on me, just like you." Ling Xiao turned to look at him, laughing freely and unrestrainedly.

"What do you mean?" Black Bear didn't quite understand.

"It means that I had already finished my cigarettes outside, and we didn't have any cigarettes in our hands. You were just a part of the illusion. Thank you for staying with me for so long." The cigarette fell to the ground, and the surroundings became a white blur again.

Ling Xiao looked around. He knew he hadn't been able to go back yet. Maybe he could find the exit by following this white, misty road.

Ling Xiao closed his eyes, stretched out one hand, and explored in all directions, but after exploring for a long time, he still couldn't find anything. He realized that he was standing in the wrong direction and shifted a little distance, and finally he found it.

It was a tiny breeze, lasting only a moment, yet he managed to catch it easily. He took a few quick steps in the direction of the wind, lashed out with his whip a few times in the void, and blood seeped from the wall.
