Although the real intelligence that could be gleaned from this program was very limited, from the few words of some citizens, Chen Ling could vaguely feel that the Vain Mountains' offensive this time might be even fiercer than the last.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ling actually didn't care about the life or death of the Hanging Jade Domain, but the other 6-series members had finally gained a firm foothold in the Hanging Jade Domain with great difficulty and obtained legal identities. If this Domain disappeared just like that, all their previous efforts would be wasted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ghost Mockery Abyss was a Calamity territory, fundamentally unsuitable for human survival, so the 6-series members would have to go back sooner or later...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, now that the battle situation in the Hanging Jade Domain was critical, the earlier they went back, the better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ling calculated the time. At this hour, the 6-series members should have already fallen asleep. He put away the Radio and arrived in front of the main doors of the Underground Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just at this moment, Chen Ling was slightly taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it an illusion?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, the feeling the Underground Palace gave Chen Ling was cold, gloomy, and filled with a killing aura. But now, the temperature here seemed to have warmed up a bit, as if the energy field here was being harmonized and changed by some kind of power, possessing a faint trace of human warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ling hesitated for a moment, then cautiously walked into the Underground Palace. He seemed to have sensed something and looked towards the direction of the 6-series members' room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Diamonds... why do you have to do this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression was somewhat helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After walking a few steps, Chen Ling discovered that the originally dim Underground Palace actually had quite a bit of light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hundreds of candles were placed in every corner of the Underground Palace, their candlelights flickering and connecting with each other. Although it couldn't be considered brightly lit, the faint candlelights interweaving together still dispelled more than half of the Underground Palace's darkness, like a patch of orange starlight in the sky falling and covering the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ling was stunned for a long time before taking steps to slowly pass through it. The Great Crimson Theatrical Robe gradually went deeper along the candlelight. A moment later, a figure wearing a leather jacket entered his line of sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw Jian Changsheng hugging a pile of candles, walking earnestly through the Underground Palace. His gaze carefully swept over every corner here, and if he found a place that wasn't bright enough, he would immediately add another candle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at the lit-up Underground Palace before him, muttering to himself:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now this looks like a place for people to live...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seemingly feeling that he had lit almost enough candles, Jian Changsheng nodded in satisfaction, turned around, and prepared to go back to his room to sleep. Suddenly seeing that Great Crimson Theatrical Robe standing behind him, he was startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fuck, Hearts! Why are you walking without any sound like a ghost??\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"... What are you doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lighting lamps.\" Jian Changsheng shrugged. \"This Underground Palace is pitch-black; it's annoying to look at. Since you don't have electric lights here, I can only use candles to simply illuminate it a bit...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ling looked at his arms in confusion, \"Where did you get so many candles?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just the room opposite ours. I opened the door and saw many candles inside, along with some strange pink whips, ropes, and stuff... By the way, what are those things used for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ling: ...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He held it in for a long time, only able to reply with one sentence: \"I don't know either, those were used by the previous Calamity of Mockery.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Anyway, seeing that there were enough candles, I lit a few more... How about it? Doesn't it look much better now than before?\" Jian Changsheng dusted off his hands and spoke smugly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"... You didn't need to do this. I'm not afraid of the dark.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know, but I don't like it. If you live in this kind of dark and cold place every day, your mood will get worse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ling frowned and looked at him, \"You guys... really plan to live here all the time?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What else then? It's not like you can go to the Human Domains.\" Jian Changsheng spoke as if it were a matter of course. \"We've already discussed it. That guy Diamonds shamelessly said something about it being convenient to protect you if we stay close. Clubs said he likes the wine here. For me, it doesn't matter where I live anyway... In short, we can't just leave you here and go eat and drink well in the Hanging Jade Domain by ourselves, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Changsheng patted Chen Ling's shoulder, \"Sharing hardships together, this is what brothers are for!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ling looked at his eyes, silent for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Ghost Mockery Abyss is not suitable for human survival. You don't have to go this far for me... Moreover, I'm living very well here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Changsheng glanced at him, didn't reply, but walked to the side unhurriedly, bent down, and put down another candle in the darkness of the corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lightly struck a match, a wisp of flame ignited, and the flickering candlelight slowly approached that candle, also dyeing his cheek with a layer of golden veil:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hearts, do you know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I grew up in the Yan family. I never had any friends, only a few relatives who occasionally took care of me... But after Aurora City was destroyed, I had nothing left.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When I came out of the Aurora Domain, I was like a Dog With No Home. Only the Dusk Society took me in, and the one I was most familiar with in the Dusk Society was only you, who is of the same generation as me... Although I often find you displeasing to the eye, and you also often bully me, after experiencing Red Dust together, from the bottom of my heart, I already treated you as a friend long ago... And the best friend.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Later, I consecutively met Diamonds and Clubs... Although our personalities are worlds apart, we get along unexpectedly well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the Tianshu Domain, when you and Diamonds fought for the Heaven-Reaching Star Position for me together, I knew that you guys would be my, Jian Changsheng's, most important brothers in this life... You might not believe it if I say it, but before that, I had never received a gift.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ancient Vault of the Imperial Path, Wuji Domain, Integration Faction... I don't know what you think, Hearts, but to me, after experiencing so much together, I already treated you guys as existences closer than family. Really... I don't care about the life or death of the Human Domains. When I was at my hardest and most bitter times, the Human Domains didn't help me with anything; it was you guys who kept supporting me forward.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If something happens to you, I will take the lead to save you; if you leave, I will actively come find you. It's not because I, Jian Changsheng, have nothing better to do, but because you are the most important people in my life. If you were swapped with Diamonds or Clubs, I would still go all the same, and I would tie the rest of you to go together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can say I'm paranoid or narrow-minded, but in my heart, the friendship of the 6-series members is above all else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The candle in the corner was gently lit by Jian Changsheng. He stood up and turned back to look at Chen Ling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze was unprecedentedly serious:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To leave you alone in this cold Underground Palace, I can't do it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ling stood in place for a long time like a sculpture, a trace of complexity revealed in his gaze...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened his mouth, seeming to want to say something else, but couldn't utter a single word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"... I understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, the Great Crimson Theatrical Robe turned around in silence, passed through the long corridor covered with candlelights, and his figure disappeared into the depths of the Underground Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>",1402,"2026-05-30T14:16:38.252Z","2026-06-01T04:31:26.536Z",1,"novelbin.me","06d95b8386a55d7ab7c0ff8bdf22b7ea4f5e78bdf21ab17440744926b1fcce24","i-am-not-the-god-of-drama-chapter-1333","i-am-not-the-god-of-drama-chapter-1331",1902,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-am-not-the-god-of-drama-cover.jpg"]
