Demigod Game

In front of the young man, the Silver King who had usurped the complete Path of the Thief was like a constrained big boy.

He sat on the chair with a pale face, his hands placed neatly on the table. Unbeknownst to when, two fingers of his right hand had already been chopped off. Scarlet blood flowed along the yellow rosewood tabletop, dripping onto the floor bit by bit...

"... You sneak-attacked me."

The Silver King spoke sternly. "A dignified Pathway Chief of the Path of the Actor, the Red King of the Twilight Society... actually also uses such sinister and despicable methods?"

"Do you know what the key to singing a play well is?" The Red King blew on the surface of the hot tea and spoke indifferently, "Day after day of practice, rehearsals to the utmost detail. After going On Stage, not a single step, not a single movement, not a single prop can have a mistake... In my 'play', everything is designed in advance. Your inflation and arrogance are also part of the play."

The Silver King didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, nor did he intend to understand. He merely looked coldly at the other party, faint light flickering in his eyes.

"Do you think you have me fully suppressed?" The Silver King spoke slowly. "Don't forget, you are a Demigod, and so am I. Moreover, I possess the complete Path of the Thief... Although you sneak-attacked me just now, if we fought head-on, I wouldn't be afraid of you."

"Perhaps."

"It seems you're not stupid either."

"Hehe, thank you for the compliment."

"I know you are very strong, but this time, whether it's you or the Twilight Society, it's impossible for you to escape the Wuji Domain completely intact... In the end, there will only be one winner in this chaotic battle, and that is me."

The Red King chuckled lightly. As if seeing through everything, he spoke leisurely, "Betting everything on the Tianshu Domain is not a wise choice."

Hearing this sentence, the Silver King's just-calmed mind suddenly shook!

"How... do you know?"

"I said, the key to singing a play well lies in 'design'... You thought you were the only chess player in this chess game, but in reality, a long time ago... you were already in my 'play'."

The Red King leaned lazily against the back of the chair, the corner of his mouth curling up slightly.

"At the end of this chess game, who exactly is the winner... we shall wait and see."

...

Tianshu Domain.

"This is theTianshu Radio Station. We are interrupting for a news broadcast."

"According to reliable intelligence, at 5:40 this morning, all members of the long-dormant Twilight Society attacked the Wuji Domain and officially declared war on the Silver Government!"

"As of now, the Wuji Domain is still in the midst of turmoil and slaughter. Two vicious organizations boycotted by the human convention are opposing and biting each other. Is it good or bad? In what manner will this unprecedented war ultimately come to an end? Our frontline reporters will continue to report for you..."

The voice of the radio echoed on the streets of the Tianshu Domain. Occasionally, pedestrians would stop to listen for a moment, then turn around and leave on their own, seemingly unconcerned about this...

The several major Human Domains were independent of each other. The residents living in their respective Realms didn't care much about the situation in other Realms. After all, the vast majority of them wouldn't leave for their entire lives, and the other Realms were too far away from them. Moreover, in the eyes of the current residents of the Five Great Realms, the Wuji Domain had already become a habitat for sinister and evil forces. It didn't matter what kind of wars and riots happened there; at most, it was just a Dog-Eat-Dog situation.

Just like last time when the news of Six of Hearts about to be executed was spread, aside from a few individuals, it didn't attract much attention from too many people.

"This world is getting more and more chaotic..."

"Yeah, first it was the Ruoshui Domain, then the Aurora Domain, then Red Dust, Wuji... It won't be our turn next, right?"

"The Tianshu Domain should be fine. This is the transportation hub for all Realms. Even if a Gray Realm Convergence and Calamity Invasion occur, it won't affect this place. It's considered quite safe."

"And right now, the Fire-Stealers and the Twilight Society are in a Dog-Eat-Dog fight in the Wuji Domain, which also won't affect us..."

"True..."

"Eh, what are we eating tonight? Malatang again?"

"I've been feeling a bit of internal heat these past two days, let's just stir-fry a couple simple dishes, preferably with more bitter melon."

"..."

The bright sunlight rose from the east, shining warmly upon the Tianshu Domain. Just as everything was operating as usual, a mysterious Alchemy Array began to be silently sketched above the firmament...

At the same time,

In a certain unnamed plaza, a figure slowly took off his black hood...

His palm gently pressed against the stone brick floor, and an aura of the Nine Sovereign Tier began to frantically spread outward along the earth. At this moment, the stone bricks, the earth, the concrete roads—no matter what material the ground was made of, it rippled like ocean waves!!

"Finally... I've waited until this day." Lou Yu's pupils emitted a dazzling radiance, and four Philosopher's Stones lit up from his glabella at the same time!

A wave of earth visible to the naked eye swept across the block. Under Lou Yu's power, the mechanical structure of all materials underwent a change. The originally towering hard buildings suddenly cracked with a large number of fissures, as if instantly placed at the epicenter of a magnitude 9 earthquake!

Boom——!!!

With Lou Yu as the center, all the surrounding buildings were collapsing at an astonishing speed. Human civilization that took hundreds of years to build was annihilated with a crash under this palm, turning into flying ash.

"Earthquake?!! It's an earthquake!!!"

"How could there be an earthquake out of nowhere..."

"Run!!! Run quickly!!! The earth has cracked open!!"

"My child! My child is still in the building..."

"..."

All of this happened too suddenly. From the buildings beginning to tremble to their crashing collapse, it took less than three seconds... The vast majority of people didn't even have time to react before they were smashed into bloody pulp by the abruptly falling ceilings, or swallowed by the cracking crevices of the earth.

Ultimate dark dust permeated the sky above the Tianshu Domain. Tens of thousands of buildings vanished in an instant. It was as if God randomly shook a sieve board in his hands, and a city built of gravel dispersed without a trace...

In the blink of an eye, a gentle and bustling city block was reduced to a living purgatory!

A blood-colored Alchemy Array lit up in the air, and countless dead souls uncontrollably floated toward the sky. Faint lightning flashed across the center, and faintly, the outline of a blood-colored gemstone was rapidly forming...

Unlike the Red Dust Domain, the Tianshu Domain had a larger area and a higher population density. Just a single block housed millions of people. A sudden earthquake was enough to obliterate a large number of living beings and turn them into the raw materials for a Philosopher's Stone.

At the center of this block, on the only plaza that hadn't collapsed, Lord Lou Yu, dressed in black, slowly raised his head in the wind, staring at the firmament.

"Wuji... Immortality."
