What evil intentions could an evil god possibly have?

In an instant, the extraordinary beings immersed in the void all suffered varying degrees of mental trauma, with the weaker ones even falling into a coma.

Such intense, extraordinary fluctuations could not truly bring peace even if the world were completely silent.

Almost immediately, all the superhumans on the planet realized that something had happened to Xin Chu.

However, when those extraordinary beings far away tried to look towards Xin Chu through that vast, empty sea, they only saw that the point of light that was usually closest to the top of the sky suddenly emitted countless rays of light.

Like a brand new, blazing sun.

It is difficult for humans to look directly at the sun because the light is too bright.

The entire planet, except for the dozen or so powerful beings qualified to face the sun directly, has fallen into absolute silence.

Countless gazes that wanted to fall upon Xin Chu were obscured by the radiance of the blazing sun; no matter how hard they tried, all they could see was white light.

Under the boundless light, Xin Chu became increasingly imperceptible, signifying that the entire city was steadily disappearing...

Until it no longer exists in this world.

……

……

The top floor of the Special Affairs Bureau building.

Standing at the center of the world, Lin Mushi looked at the Pope to her side, countless thoughts arose in her mind, she wanted to say something, but in the end she remained silent.

All of this happened so fast that she hadn't even grasped the reasons behind it.

Zhong Chongshan intervened to save the Pope, but the latter killed him with a single glance, leading to the appearance of the Void Slash.

The whole process had a very obvious sense of design. If she wasn't mistaken, this should be a plan that Zhong Chongshan and Lu Xiu had already finalized.

The death of one person serves as a wake-up call for the Lost Void Slash, directly stopping the killer's departure and holding out until Lu Xiu returns to kill the enemy and quell the incident.

She recalled that at the beginning of Shen Muchan's turmoil, Lu Xiu had specifically transferred her access before leaving, confirming that this was indeed the case.

Thinking about all this, she looked at the Pope standing beside her again, thinking, "Why didn't you see through such a simplistic conspiracy, and instead chose to step into it?"

……

……

"Of course I can tell."

The Pope's voice reached everyone's ears: "But what does all this have to do with me?"

There is another way to say this.

—I don't care.

No matter what sacrifices you've made behind the scenes, what touching stories exist, or anything else... I don't care.

Lin Mushi then asked, "Then why don't you want to speak properly?"

The Pope stopped what he was doing, looked at her with some confusion, and asked curiously, "Don't you realize that our meeting was designed from the very beginning?"

Lin Mushi was slightly taken aback, but did not speak.

At this point, taking the two of them as the starting point, much of the surrounding environment had already been erased by that area.

The crimson line that appeared in the air, its origin and end unknown, no longer emitted a bright light.

The lightning bolt that descended from the sky still retained its own light, but it had no meaning whatsoever.

“Someone wants me to see you, and for this, that person has made many sacrifices, such as luring Lu Xiu away. All your reactions were within that person’s calculations.”

The Pope glanced around the room and continued, "As for why I am unwilling to speak properly, such as discussing a cooperation with you, I have already told you that before."

Lin Mushi looked at him and said, "You are a cult leader in the eyes of many people."

The Pope said, "Yes, therefore there has never been a basis for cooperation between us, so why should I waste my time on you?"

Lin Mushi suddenly said, "Why don't we just kill us all, then find the person who is plotting everything behind the scenes, and kill that person too? Then we'll have peace."

When she said this, her tone was very calm and her expression was exceptionally serene.

This is almost identical to the imposing manner that Gu Yuqiu displayed in some of their conversations.

In fact, she was just imitating.

A different voice.

The same pride and disdain.

Upon hearing this, the Pope paused for a moment, then sighed and said, "I'm quite curious about what has happened to you these past few days, no, these past few months."

Lin Mushi had no interest in such sentiments and asked, "Why change the subject?"

The Pope composed himself, looked into the distance, and said, "Because you are not actually qualified to speak to me, you should naturally listen to whatever I want to say."

The moment the words were spoken, a muffled hum resounded from the audience.

It sounded like a very low rumble of thunder.

An extremely violent explosion occurred without warning, right before the Pope's eyes, along the red line in front of him.

To be precise, it landed on the countless spatial fragments slashed out by the Void Slash, and with the power of the explosion, it fused them back into one.

Then, the Pope took a step forward.

He grasped the red thread.

……

……

Under the cover of night, every movement was so conspicuous.

At some point, Gu Yuqiu left her home and came to the rooftop where she had once talked with Lu Xiu, where she held a cat and gazed into the distance.

Shen Muchan was right beside her.

The two people and the cat took in the entire conversation, the appearance of the Void Slash, the Pope's fourth sigh, and the deep thunder at this moment.

What appears to be an incredibly wondrous and dreamlike scene to the parties involved is often just a change in lighting to outsiders.

Even with the fourth sigh falling, and all things disappearing with the Pope's gaze, stripped away and submerged into the sea of ​​dreams, there was no difference.

It was just pure darkness.

Therefore, things are different now.

A deafening roar, like thunder.

The entire top floor of the Special Affairs Bureau building, as well as the floors of the surrounding buildings of the same height, were flattened to the extreme in an instant, leaving not a single speck of dust behind.

The lightning bolt was also among them; its originally extremely bright light dimmed in the blink of an eye, and it could no longer block the view from afar.

With no more smoke or dust, and no more lightning, visibility naturally became clear.

That invisible, terrifying shockwave rolled away into the distance, like an unseen tsunami. As it traveled further, its power gradually became less concentrated and began to affect the surrounding area.

As a result, the layers of dense clouds in the night sky churned and rolled, countless windows on the ground shattered, and countless ordinary people fell to the ground, bleeding from their heads.

Just as this aftershock was about to cause even greater casualties, it disappeared.

Seeing this, Shen Muchan mocked, "Innocence is still so hypocritical."

Gu Yuqiu said, "Hmm?"

"Even if you have a very good relationship with her, this is still a fact, just like you have killed many people and are more terrifying than the Pope."

Shen Muchan glanced at her and sneered, "Wu Zui could have made a move long ago, but instead she just stood by and did nothing, only watching."

Gu Yuqiu said, "Lu Xiu did not allow her to enter the country. At this time, she should not exist in Xin Chu. From any perspective, she has a good reason not to take action."

Shen Muchan said, "But she still moved in the end."

"This means she is a good person."

Gu Yuqiu calmly said, "For the sake of countless ordinary people's lives, she didn't hesitate to be investigated by the Special Affairs Bureau afterward, but still insisted on saving people. This deserves praise."

She glanced at Shen Muchan and said softly, "You live recklessly, with no regard for the law, and you even try to guess the thoughts of good people with malice. That's just too despicable."

Shen Muchan's expression changed slightly as she looked into her eyes and said, "Do you even have the right to talk about me like that?"

In the eyes of the world, both men were guilty of heinous crimes and deserved to die.

"Of course."

Gu Yuqiu said earnestly, "I know I can't do that, which is why I admire people like that."

Shen Muchan found these words utterly ridiculous and said, "Have you never killed a messenger of natural disasters before?"

Gu Yuqiu hummed in agreement.

This is indeed the case.

Whether it was because of Su Yan or because she genuinely admired and liked this group, she had never killed a member of the Calamity Messenger in the past, and even offered help at times.

"If the world you see is only what's in front of you."

She said to Shen Muchan, "Then you will always be stuck in this position, and you will never be able to take another step forward until the very second you die."

Shen Muchan remained silent.

After an unknown amount of time, the girl suddenly asked, "These are all things for later. I just want to know what you're going to do now. Innocence is no match for the Pope. Are you ready to step in now?"

……

……

The moment the Pope calmed the countless fragments of space before him with a thunderous roar and grasped the blood-red thread from among them, his perception of the outside world became clear.

Thus, Su Yan came into his view.

However, before he could do anything, Lu Xiu stepped out from the dim lightning and came to stand in front of him.

Compared to just a few tens of minutes ago, Lu Xiu was no longer as glamorous as he was now. His expensive clothes were now tattered and looked like countless strips of cloth.

Like a beggar.

But no one would mistake him for a beggar at this moment, not because he had shown immense courage by defying death and walking against the tide toward the Pope.

This was purely because his eyes were too bright, like those of a billionaire with an unspoken confidence.

He said nothing, and simply met the Pope's gaze, with faint flashes of lightning appearing and disappearing beside him, only to reappear again.
