What evil intentions could an evil god possibly have?

At the time, Lu Xiu had even asked her indirectly, wanting to see what kind of opinion she could give.

Su Yan hesitated for a long time, but in the end, she did not answer.

—Because Gu Yuqiu had personally promised her that this time he didn't want to destroy the world and cut off humanity's future.

Holding the scraps of paper, she thought about these not-so-distant things, and emotions began to rise within her.

If she hadn't remembered her current situation and used her power to maintain her hidden existence, passersby would have already been looking at her with curiosity.

"I hope you still remember what you said."

Naturally, Su Yan felt some dissatisfaction with Gu Yuqiu.

Because she had no way to immediately collect the debt from Crimson.

The shredded paper returned to its original place, and she found the balcony where the paper had fallen. She then went to Lin Mushi's house and knocked on the door.

……

……

There was another knock on the door.

Lin Mushi, who was lying on the chair, reluctantly opened her eyes and wondered with some annoyance who this was.

She was too busy with work before and didn't have any contact with her neighbors, so no one should have come knocking on her door.

Could it be that Crimson was truly enraged and decided to disregard everything, wanting to find peace of mind only by killing her?

She was thinking about these illogical things, like she was suffering from procrastination, twisting and turning in her chair, and finally managed to sit up.

Just then, the door suddenly opened.

Lin Mushi was stunned for a moment, her eyes filled with astonishment, thinking to herself, "Is this a thief coming to my door?"

She blinked, fully awake, and lightly stepped off the chair. As she pondered how to punish the thief, she froze once again.

She opened her mouth wide in surprise, as if she could swallow an apple whole, wondering what day it was today.

First it was deep red.

Then came the innocent queen.

These two prominent figures, who are at the top of the world today, have come to her humble home one after another... The one who is polite is actually Crimson.

Lin Mushi wondered if she had misjudged the situation, or if the world was sick.

"Is it...you?" She hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice.

Su Yan casually hummed in agreement.

Lin Mushi felt extremely embarrassed when she thought about her true identity and the arguments they had had.

Even though this was her own home, she was still filled with unease and felt extremely uncomfortable.

What brings you here?

She hesitated for a moment, then looked at Su Yan and continued, "Is there something you need from me?"

Su Yan said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to see you."

After saying that, she walked to the chair where Su Yan had been lying and sat down. Her movements were very natural, and she even pointed to a spot, indicating that the tea could be placed there. There was no embarrassment or awkwardness at all, as if this was not Lin Mushi's home, but her own bedroom.

Yes, Lin Mushi's house is about the same size as her bedroom, which is quite small.

Living alone, a smaller space doesn't matter; in fact, it might even make you feel safer.

Just like it's always easier to live in a small city, it's the same principle.

"See me?"

Lin Mushi grew increasingly nervous, wondering if he had come seeking revenge.

Su Yan didn't look at her, but still guessed what she was thinking, and calmly said, "I wouldn't hold a grudge against someone because of the instant coffee issue."

Lin Mushi breathed a sigh of relief and poured her a glass of warm water. Suddenly, she thought of something and asked in confusion, "Why did you come?"

This statement is somewhat ambiguous; it seems to be a repetition of the previous dialogue, but its true implications are quite different.

She asked why the Special Affairs Bureau allowed Su Yan to enter the country. Was the situation in Xin Chu not as peaceful as it seemed, but extremely serious?

This speculation was extremely dangerous, so she dared not say it out loud, even when no one was around.

Su Yan calmly said, "I came here illegally."

The room became unusually quiet. Lin Mushi looked shocked, her mouth slightly open, unable to utter a word for a long time.

She now has only one thought left.

--regret.

Why did I even ask this kind of question?

She looked up at the ceiling, let out a painful groan, and covered her face with her small hands, saying helplessly, "Can't you just tell a lie?"

This is indeed a big secret, but knowing it won't do her any good, except make her feel uneasy.

"I don't like you."

Su Yan understood what she meant and said, "Why should I care about your feelings?"

Lin Mushi thought about it and realized that she would have done the same thing in her place, so she had nothing to say.

Su Yan looked at her and continued, "I came to see you mainly because I didn't want to see her. I just wanted to sit here and see if there's anything special about you."

Lin Mushi was a very intelligent girl. She understood that the "she" in the words was Gu Yuqiu, but she didn't understand what kind of relationship the two had. After a moment of silence, she suddenly asked, "Are you still in disguise this time?"

Su Yan shook her head slightly and said, "True form."

Lin Mushi's expression stiffened, and her voice trembled slightly as she said, "Is Xin Chu in big trouble?"

Su Yan didn't answer that question, but instead asked, "How many days until Christmas?"

Lin Mushi was somewhat puzzled, but did not ask why, and honestly replied, "Four days."

"So now it's the day before Christmas."

Su Yan said.

Lin Mushi thought to herself, "Isn't this just a pointless statement?"

Su Yan looked out the window at the sky and said softly, "Black Stone and the Divine Will Walkers, although they don't have a fifth-tier peak like the Church of the Sleeping Souls, their leaders are still quite capable. Even without any clues, one can still have a premonition."

Lin Mushi was slightly taken aback and asked, "Because it involves their vital interests?"

"Yes."

Su Yan said, "This kind of deep-seated tremor makes them easily think about the so-called relics, so Xin Chu will inevitably be uneasy, and who knows how many people will die."

Lin Mushi stared into her eyes and asked seriously, "Did you smuggle yourself here just to stop this?"

Su Yan nodded, then shook her head.

Lin Mushi thought to herself, "What do you mean by this?"

"I have always hoped that the world could be at peace, but that has long been proven to be a pipe dream. Therefore, I just hope that fewer people, at least unrelated civilians, will die."

"This is the philosophy of the messenger of natural disasters, and I have always remembered it because I admire you and those who follow you."

"But not this time."

Su Yan smiled slightly and said self-deprecatingly, "At least I came to Xin Chu today not for this idea, but simply to see someone."

Chapter 99: Chapter Ninety-Seven I sincerely wish you dead

"I don't understand... why do you still use those three words when I clearly know who that person is referring to? It's so inexplicable."

Lin Mushi suddenly felt a little irritable and her mood was not good. She walked to the window and looked at the sky. Her voice was as cold as the weather.

Su Yan thought for a moment and said, "This should be a matter of habit, a trivial matter. Since you know who I'm talking about, there's no need to dwell on it."

Lin Mushi withdrew her gaze, looked at Su Yan's blurry reflection in the window, and said softly, "Before you today, Shen Hong came to see me."

Su Yan said, "I know."

Lin Mushi was slightly taken aback, but she didn't ask how she knew. She just felt that it was nothing to be surprised about and continued the conversation.

"I asked Crimson a question twice. Can you guess what it was?"

"Who is Gu Yuqiu?"

"Ah."

“I guess… Crimson didn’t tell you the answer to that question.”

Su Yan laughed and looked at her back, saying, "Similarly, I won't tell you the answer. You can ask Gu Yuqiu herself."

Lin Mushi was silent for a while, then said, "I'm really annoyed right now."

Su Yan understood her feelings very well and said with a smile, "If it were me, being kept in the dark like this would definitely be just as annoying as it is for you."

Lin Mushi's breathing became heavier, clearly indicating that she was angry. She said, "This feeling is like being kept in the dark by the whole world."

Su Yan shook her head slightly and said, "Believe me, this is a secret you don't want to know. Not knowing is actually a good thing."

She stopped smiling and continued, "Besides, for something so important and significant, isn't it best to learn from her?"

Lin Mushi raised her eyebrows slightly, somewhat annoyed.

It's unclear whether she's angry because she feels displeased at being perceived as someone important to Gu Yuqiu, or because she's furious at trying to understand him through others.

Su Yan looked at her quietly, also thinking about other things.

Lin Mushi suddenly thought of a question.

"You seem...very different from before, you give me a very different feeling."

"What you saw before was my incarnation; now I am my true form. If there is no difference between the two, then how can there be a distinction between primary and secondary?"

Su Yan picked up her teacup, took a sip of warm water, let out a pleasant sigh, and said, "The difference lies in the balance between divinity and humanity."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mushi subconsciously lowered her head and said, "I am still a long way from achieving that."

"Not far."

Su Yan put down her cup, looked out at the gloomy sky again, her eyes somewhat vacant, as if recalling something, and said softly, "You'll be able to access these things soon."
