What evil intentions could an evil god possibly have?

"so……"

Lin Mushi sat down on the sofa, forcefully squeezing out some space, and held her right hand, saying softly, "Why don't you stay and not leave?"

Gu Yuqiu disagreed and continued, "But I have never thought about changing your personality."

Hearing this, Lin Mushi was not disappointed, but she still couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

She was silent for a moment, then asked, "So what are you planning to do?"

"To make you stronger."

Gu Yuqiu casually said, "As long as you are strong enough, conspiracies will lose their meaning, and the only thing that can threaten you is open strategy."

The difference between the peak of the fifth rank and a god is immeasurable.

Even though Lin Mushi is now just a false god, far inferior to her former self, and her soul cannot cross galaxies to reach the end and origin of this universe, it is enough.

From a certain perspective, this is actually the safest approach.

Like her back then, her will completely transcended the material world. She could traverse interstellar space in the blink of an eye, and her perception covered every corner of the entire galaxy. It seemed that holding everything in her arms was the truly dangerous thing.

That means the responsibilities that come with it will become inescapable.

This is one of the reasons why she abandoned the throne and decided to start over.

Now that Lin Mushi has woken up ahead of time, inheriting only a speck of dust from her vast, star-like power, she is undoubtedly in the best possible condition.

"The problem is... how am I supposed to know about those conspiracies?"

Lin Mushi looked at her, puzzled, and asked.

"It's very simple."

Gu Yuqiu was too lazy to call him an idiot anymore and said, "Killing someone, as long as I kill you, you will know everything that person knows, and no amount of means can cover it up."

Lin Mushi frowned slightly and said, "But I don't want to kill anyone."

Gu Yuqiu was silent for a while, then said, "Then beat the person half to death, and then let the person live. Then you can hear the truth you want to hear."

Lin Mushi thought for a moment before understanding the meaning of those words, and said uncertainly, "Refuse death?"

After ascending to the throne, she received a great deal of information and gained some extremely powerful authority.

For example, the four words she uttered at that moment.

Under her will, she can forcibly maintain the life of beings below the fifth rank as long as they are not completely dead, preventing them from dying.

She had thought this authority was meant to save people, but now it seems... that's not the case.

"That was torture."

Gu Yuqiu knew what she was thinking and said indifferently, "It makes people consciously stay in a state of near-death, with the images of their last moments of lucidity constantly repeating before their eyes, causing constant pain to their body and soul."

Lin Mushi had nothing to say.

Gu Yuqiu glanced at her, her tone softening slightly, and said softly, "Innocence isn't a bad thing, but if you want to live a better life, you eventually need to mature."

Lin Mushi couldn't help but ask, "Now that I'm so strong, why should I change for reality and do things I don't like?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yuqiu's expression remained unchanged, and she said, "Because you're not smart enough."

Lin Mushi remained silent once again.

"Let's leave this topic here; we'll move on to something else."

Gu Yuqiu ignored her thoughts and said, "If you want to become stronger, the most direct way is to sit on the throne of gods, but you certainly wouldn't want to accept that."

Lin Mushi nodded without hesitation, and then, feeling it wasn't enough, nodded several more times.

Gu Yuqiu paused for a moment, then said, "And I'm not willing either."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mushi had no more complaints and was filled with boundless energy, as if she could easily accomplish anything in the world.

"There is only one way left."

Gu Yuqiu did not meet her gaze, but she could feel the burning intensity of her eyes. She said, "Heading towards death."

Lin Mushi was stunned, and asked in confusion, "What...does this mean?"

Gu Yuqiu turned to look at her and said seriously, "This doesn't mean having a baby, so we can't stay in the room any longer and we have to go out first."

……

……

Outside the blockade line, a temporary command post.

Su Yan opened her eyes, waking up from her brief rest. She reached out and took the towel handed to her by her subordinate, casually wiping her face before becoming fully awake.

She looked at her most trusted confidant standing to the side and asked, "Any surprises?"

The confidant replied, "No, but that person came to visit you."

"Ok?"

Su Yan noticed the strange look on her confidante's face and raised an eyebrow, saying, "Lin Mushi is with her?"

The confidant lowered his head slightly, not daring to meet her gaze, and gave a barely audible "hmm".

Su Yan said, "Let them in."

Just as her confidante turned to leave and was about to walk out of the room, she seemed to remember something and said, "No matter what happens later, you must act as usual."

The confidant was slightly taken aback, turned to look into her eyes, his expression becoming extremely complicated. After a moment, he nodded, indicating that he understood.

Su Yan left the recliner and boiled a pot of water to make tea.

Not long after, Gu Yuqiu arrived, bringing Lin Mushi with him.

At the same time, the water also boiled.

Su Yan did not turn around, but skillfully brewed a pot of tea.

The tea leaves were green, Maojian, so the tea liquor was naturally green as well.

She poured herself a glass, but didn't greet Gu Yuqiu and Lin Mushi. She asked, "What is it?"

Lin Mushi was taken aback, quite surprised by her directness. She carefully considered the words again, but still couldn't find any emotion in them.

It was as if everything was irrelevant to her.

"I need your help."

Gu Yuqiu looked at her and said, "Only you can help."

Su Yan remained calm and asked, "Stop beating around the bush, be clear."

Hearing this, Lin Mushi couldn't help but feel a little pleased, thinking that this must be the way she dreamed of communicating with Gu Yuqiu.

"She's too dramatic."

Gu Yuqiu pointed at Lin Mushi with a hint of disdain in her voice: "I want her to become strong enough so that she won't fall into a conspiracy and be used by others, but she rejected the method I proposed, leaving only the one left."

Su Yan took a sip of the hot tea and said, "That's interesting."

For some reason, even though the tone of the sentence was completely flat, Lin Mushi could detect a hint of joy in it.

She frowned slightly, vaguely understanding what the so-called "walking towards death" really meant.

"I just think it's stupid."

Gu Yuqiu was quiet for a moment, then continued, "But that's just the kind of person she is, and there's nothing I can do about it. You wouldn't be so hypocritical as to refuse, would you?"

Su Yan smiled and poured a glass for each of them, saying, "Of course not."

"and many more!"

Lin Mushi looked at the two who had bypassed her and finished their discussion, and said angrily, "Couldn't you have asked for my opinion first?"

Gu Yuqiu looked at her as if she were an idiot and said, "I already asked for your opinion before we came here, and it was you who insisted on it."

Su Yan seemed to have seen something very interesting, and smiled without saying a word.

"So... what exactly are you talking about, and what is that method?"

Lin Mushi sighed, her expression full of helplessness as she asked.

Gu Yuqiu thought to herself, "How could you be so stupid? Are there any other ways to interpret those four words?"

She didn't want to talk anymore and turned to look at Su Yan.

"It's very simple."

Su Yan was in a good mood, her smile became even gentler, and her tone was even more so: "It's about letting you experience the feeling of death, repeating it thousands and thousands of times."

Lin Mushi was taken aback and asked, "Are you serious?"

"I told you I wouldn't lie to you."

Gu Yuqiu's voice rang out from the side.

Lin Mushi ignored her and looked at Su Yan, asking, "Does it hurt?"

"of course."

Su Yan said gently, "It's the kind of pain that's intense, it'll definitely be unforgettable, you'll never forget it for the rest of your life."

Lin Mushi finally understood why she was laughing, and why her laughter was so beautiful.

"Then... let's go."

"Ok?"

Su Yan raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at her with some surprise, and said, "I won't lie to you. It really hurts. Why don't you think about it again?"

Lin Mushi shook her head and said, "Come on."

Su Yan said nothing more, and there was no trace of appreciation in her eyes. She stood up.

The next second, her fingertips landed on Lin Mushi's brow.

That is the power that forbids all extraordinary abilities.

Like a storm.

Lin Mushi's body trembled slightly, and a sacred and profound aura emerged from her body, resisting the forbidden power that was about to fall.

Just then, Gu Yuqiu whispered something.
