Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

Yin Lang crossed her arms, looking the spirited Xuan Ge up and down, her eyes holding seven parts curiosity and three parts suspicion:

"Where did you go?"

Xuan Ge leaned against the railing beside her, "Watched the goose carving for a while."

While he was bathing, Da Li Hua and Black Swan started fighting outside.

Women fighting, he naturally had to go watch.

As a result, while watching, Da Li Hua pulled Black Swan into the bathroom.

The bathroom door shut, water splashing inside, who knew who was carving whom.

Yin Lang wrinkled her nose, looking at Xuan Ge in confusion: "Goose carving? What's that? Acrobatics?"

Xuan Ge's gaze swept a circle around the surroundings, discovering Jing Yuan wasn't there, and smoothly pulled the topic back from the bathroom doorway: "Where did Jing Yuan go?"

"Him," Yin Lang spread her hands, with a subtle air impossible to tell if it was pride or annoyance, "Lost a few games to me, went to find Little Azure Dragon."

Hearing this, Xuan Ge stroked his chin and slowly leaned close to Yin Lang, eyebrows arching in a curious arc: "You beat him?"

"What! You got an opinion?" Yin Lang instantly bristled like a cat whose tail was stepped on, puffing her cheeks and huffing at him, "Not convinced? Let's spar?"

Xuan Ge looked at Yin Lang's hamster-cheeks look, his smile deepening: "You sure?"

Yin Lang stared at his face for two seconds, reached out and pushed his face away, conveniently rolling her eyes at him:

"Forget it, I'll just rule you the winner. Causality is too shameless — you say you'll win, you definitely win. That's even more hateful than cheating."

The smile on Xuan Ge's face hadn't faded when he suddenly felt a vibration in the Harmony frequency.

Bai Qi's message, brief and powerful: Shen Wu's fleet is arriving soon.

He collected his smile, straightened his waist, patted Yin Lang's head: "Shen Wu's arriving soon. I should leave."

".... Oh~" Yin Lang lowered her eyelids, the vitality in her voice visibly deflating by half.

Beautiful and playful times are always short, every time it's like this.

She quickly composed her expression, as if suddenly remembering something, tilted her face up and called to stop him: "Right, tell you something. Director Hua complained about you."

Xuan Ge's footsteps paused.

Da Li Hua's heaven-defying operations hadn't confused him, but this sentence truly made him freeze for a moment.

"Complained about me?"

"Yes." Yin Lang nodded, her tone carrying an unmistakable watch-the-show attitude.

"Saying you, the grand Emperor Xuan, bullied a little girl. Director Hua said bullying was one thing, but you also flirted with her."

Finishing, she scanned Xuan Ge from head to toe, her gaze full of scrutiny: "You actually reacted to Hua Huo?"

The smile on Xuan Ge's face gradually turned core-goodness.

"Hua Huo, you're good."

He noted down this debt.

Later he'd slowly settle accounts with that brat.

"Don't talk about her for now."

He withdrew his gaze from Yin Lang's face, turning his head to look in a certain direction.

Separated by several walls and half a street's distance, he could feel Sha Jin's breath there was already as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

"In your script, how do you plan to move on my small treasury?"

"Relax, Sha Jin won't have an accident." Yin Lang followed his gaze.

Words barely fell — a red blade light tore open the sky over there.

Yin Lang's mouth corner stiffened for zero-point-seconds: "Mm.... should be not dead."

Her voice dragged half a beat behind, clearly lacking confidence.

That slash's power, looking at it, wasn't small.

"Nihility." Xuan Ge wasn't on scene, but just looking at that blade light's luster and dissipation method, he knew this wasn't one slash.

This was two slashes.

"Ai Li Ou said, you enslaved her." Yin Lang crossed arms before her chest, pulling the topic back on track.

The reason she kept accompanying Xuan Ge to play this time, one was she also wanted to play, two was she indeed really wanted to play.

Three — prevent Xuan Ge from sprouting some thoughts he shouldn't have.

"I enslaved her?" Xuan Ge tilted his head to look at her, the surprise on his face not looking feigned.

He knows Causality, but can't do The End's ability to dance on timelines.

"Yes." Yin Lang nodded, expression rarely serious as she explained.

"In the worst timeline, you dragged The Hunt into Nihility, hunting those who want existence's meaning. And she, was one of those who stopped you."

"And Fen Feng?"

"Yes." Yin Lang looked at him, suddenly revealing a shallow smile.

She's really lucky to live on this timeline.

The Xuan Ge here, is the best one.

Then her smile rapidly transformed into a disdainful face.

"Unexpectedly you, even fallen into Nihility, still can't forget liking big ones. Killed Fen Feng, kept Huang Quan. Just how deep is your obsession with big ones?"

Xuan Ge set his face, and in the most serious tone spat out four words: "Human nature, nothing more."

His toes had already dug out the complete floor plan of the Shen Wei Imperial Palace on the carpet.

Seeing him looking like a dead duck with a hard mouth, Yin Lang didn't continue pressing the attack, and steered the topic down:

"Now you know the worst outcome. So——what do you want to do with Huang Quan?"

"The answer is already obvious." Xuan Ge smiled and teased her with a line.

"Peh~! Pervert!" Yin Lang rolled her eyes at him.

"If I get her, it's my fortune." Xuan Ge shrugged, tone calm, "Although I'm full of pursuit for the big ones, I am after all the Emperor, I need face."

He won't do anything to Huang Quan. The Huang Quan on this timeline hasn't done anything yet.

"Ah right right right." Yin Lang perfunctorily nodded, every word dragging a disbelieving tail.

You can believe all of Xuan Ge's words, but uniquely cannot believe Xuan Ge's words involving women.

What "rubbing but not going in", what "we're just chatting happily".

The best example is the Astral Express's Navigator Ji Zi.

From "just came to the Shen Wu Xian Zhou to bring Xing and March 7th home" to "Himeko Empress".

What's in between is probably only Xuan Ge's own face skin thickness.

Thinking of Ji Zi, Yin Lang elbowed Xuan Ge's waist: "How do you plan to treat Xing? Ever since she woke up she's been constantly thinking of you."

Xuan Ge smiled, didn't answer.

He truly couldn't grasp what Xing was thinking in the end.

The Masked Fools' bunch of amusement-seekers' intentions, he could dissect clearly;

But Xing——one moment she wants to stick to him, the next she wants to forcibly marry him as a Bandit Husband.

Wonderful ideas popping out one after another, he really couldn't see what her ultimate purpose actually was.

Seeing him not speak, Yin Lang pressed step by step: "Aren't you afraid of Ji Zi and Kafka joining forces to deal with you?"

"There's even this good thing?" Xuan Ge blurted out.

".... Hm?" Yin Lang tilted her head, let out a nasal sound full of confusion.

He's not afraid of two people ganging up on him?

Xuan Ge raised a hand and rubbed her hair top, tone suddenly switching to Elder Mode:

"You're still small, don't think about these things. Is it going with me to see God Lord Day, or continuing to stay here?"

Yin Lang brushed aside the bangs he had messed up, shook her head:

"Forget it, I'll still stay here. Otherwise Liu Ying won't find me, and she'll be wronged for a good while again."

"Alright." Xuan Ge responded, his figure already scattering on the spot into a wisp of extremely faint Gold Blue Afterglow, the temperature in the air not even having time to change.

Yin Lang raised a hand and pulled down the goggles on her forehead, tilted her face up to look at the distant, slowly approaching Giant Shadow beyond the Hotel Dome.

She clicked her tongue twice.

"So fast, Shen Wu's ship."

Finished speaking, she should go too.
