Chapter 103

I already got a perfect ending, and you only give me a medium rating?!

Zhao Si was so angry he laughed.

Which game, after achieving a perfect ending, would actually give the player a medium rating?

If this were in reality, the game company would surely be torn apart!

【Ding! The player's perfect ending with the myriad beings of the Primordial Wasteland does not equal a perfect ending for the Primordial Heaven and Earth.】

【If we really talk about it, the player's second-round simulation is actually the most perfect one.】

The game displayed this, and the originally indignant Zhao Si forced himself to think:

That's true.

Zhao Si, reluctantly accepting, pursed his lips:

The young man in yellow robes, whose appearance completely differed from the surrounding scenery, stood dazedly in the rental house; having arrived in an unfamiliar environment, he first looked around:

Shabby, poor!

This was Jin Bing's first impression of the strange hut; although he didn't quite understand the furniture, he could barely tell it was a place to live.

Jin Bing had never been as excited as today; out of politeness, he smiled and spoke first:

"Let's get to know each other again, I'm Jin Bing… Hello, another me."

Zhao Si frowned at first sight:

Although Jin Bing's true form is merely a True Immortal, as the actualized Heavenly Emperor he achieved in the game, his three incarnations are truly Great Luo Golden Immortals; once they come to reality, they become a humanoid heavenly disaster capable of easily destroying the world!

Having just dealt with a pile of state affairs at court, Jin Bing, after all the officials had withdrawn, sat alone on the throne and couldn't help feeling somewhat emotional:

【This round's reward is: "Summoning Ticket from the Game!"】

Then, his gaze settled on that extremely conspicuous Primordial Wasteland fragment, and the doubt in his eyes gradually turned to understanding…

Although he didn't know whether a sage could defeat the Heavenly Dao, after all, a sage is the strongest power he knows, so the hope of victory is much greater!

However, the Dao Ancestor intervened.

The mighty Heavenly Emperor actually fell asleep at his desk without a sound.

Under a series of irresistible influences, Jin Bing could only do his best to obtain this perfect ending as a paste‑and‑paper artisan.

Thus, Jin Bing went on day after day; as for mental fatigue, that didn't count as anything.

Summon the protagonist?

"Being a great chieftain is tiring, being a demon king even more so, being the Heavenly Emperor is exhaustion piled upon exhaustion!"

In the end, the human race, this heaven‑ordained protagonist, was never resolved, and the Heavenly Dao that creates injustice remained unchanged; giving a medium rating may seem unreasonable, but it is indeed reasonable.

If the Heavenly Dao is willing to correct itself, then all will be well; if it refuses to change, then smash the dog's head of the Heavenly Dao and utterly end all mistakes!

Therefore, Jin Bing had considered seizing the Primordial Purple Qi, hoping thereby to prove the Dao and become a sage, to confront Dao Ancestor Hunyuan with sage's power.

Zhao Si couldn't help but sigh in relief; since there was the system's insurance, under the premise of safety, it wasn't impossible to summon Jin Bing over.

He said this, and unconsciously reached out his right hand, wanting to shake hands with the "net friend."

"Isn't that just summoning Jin Bing into reality?! Another Primordial invasion?"

Don't look at Jin Bing having achieved a "perfect ending" this time; at best he's merely a perfect paste‑and‑paper artisan.

Everything came hard‑won; since we have obtained it, we naturally must cherish it dearly…

Every step a pitfall, all kinds of restrictions.

"Good, good, good!"

One would think that back then Jin Bing would have wanted to directly kill that guy and seize the purple qi!

But the Dao Ancestor, who usually stays out of worldly affairs, suddenly pulled this move, forcing Jin Bing to hesitate, and in the end he could only reluctantly abandon his plot to become a sage and storm heaven…

After all, it's a game character I've operated many times; as the Heavenly Emperor, his personal charm is maxed out, so meeting him is also a rare experience.

The voice that had always accompanied him suddenly sounded, making Jin Bing stare blankly; before he could think it over, his whole head swam.

Di Jun's request, making use of his residual heat, Jin Bing naturally rejected; after finally sending him off to retirement, why bring him back to work?

To be a Heavenly Emperor who indulges in pleasure would naturally be blissful beyond measure, with boundless power and desire; treasures, beauty, fine food and all supreme enjoyments can be had to the fullest!

But if one wants to be a truly valuable Heavenly Emperor, one must bind oneself to the throne, exerting utmost effort and handling every affair meticulously, for fear that a moment's inattention might cause some great calamity.

……

The Thirty‑Three Heavens, the Hall of Divine Mist.

"What?"

"What is that reward?"

Jin Bing had indeed thought of rising from a paste‑and‑paper artisan to become master; he also wanted sufficient strength to then storm the heavens beyond heaven.

"Forget it; when I get truly tired of doing this, I'll let Xuandu gradually take over."

That strand of Primordial Purple Qi that Jin Bing had intended to keep for himself once again returned to its rightful owner, being granted back to Hong Yun by the lofty Dao Ancestor.

【Ding! Summon successful! The character will return to the Primordial Wasteland on its own after one day!】

"Speaking of which, I really do want to see him with my own eyes!"

In the end, he locked eyes with the short‑haired youth across from him who was holding a fat cat, and both stared dumbfounded.

【Ding! The summoning ticket has been used; summoning in progress…】

After Zhao Si used the summoning ticket, a blurry shadow drifted out from the phone screen.

【"Summoning Ticket from the Game": Can be used to summon the game's protagonist into the real world, limited to one day!】

……

Especially someone like me, a paste‑and‑paper artisan, must be extra focused, not daring to relax even a bit; the more perfect the artisan, the more exhausted in body and mind—fortunately I'm somewhat of an immortal, otherwise I'd have died of fatigue…

Upon hearing the yellow‑robed ancient‑clothed youth who looks extremely like himself greet him, Zhao Si inexplicably felt a wondrous sense of crossing time and space, and at the same time felt the excitement of meeting a longtime online friend offline for the first time:

And even if the second‑round simulation were worse, the Golden Heavenly Emperor could still be considered as dragging the human race to death together, ending the unreasonable "heaven‑ordained protagonist" in the most bloody and tragic way.

【Another you has sent you a meeting invitation……Consciousness transmission in progress……】

Gradually, the illusion solidified, taking the form of a young man in yellow robes who resembled Zhao Si by eighty percent.

Whenever this happened, Jin Bing would feel a certain admiration for Di Jun:

One could say this old senior was indeed born to be material for a Heavenly Emperor; his absolute lust for power, on the contrary, made him work with extraordinary diligence.

"Like that……"

The two spoke in unison, and then their eyes were full of curiosity and excitement.

Jin Bing was first puzzled, then understood and smiled, also reaching out his hand.

"I…… I am Zhao Si, hello, another me!"

So this time's rating was medium; in fact, it really wasn't given wrong……

"You are……"

【Summoning……】

Only the Primordial Era ending in the second round is truly the best outcome for the vast Demon Race.

Just as Saint Nüwa originally wanted to cross over by relying on the Dao Fruit, although Zhao Si knows that this Holy Mother of the Human Race is a good person, if she insists on crossing over forcibly, Zhao Si would not hesitate to let the game security system kick her out!

As for Jin Bing's own good and evil, it actually isn't important.

Jin Bing sighed; Xuan Du, whom he had long designated as his heir, after receiving his various teachings for nearly ten cosmic cycles, although some impulsive traits remained largely unchanged, his qualities in all aspects were now sufficient……

Yet he wasn't tired at all; the more he worked, the more energetic he became. Sending him off to Tang Valley to retire, he instead felt utterly displeased, and from time to time would submit a memorial, indicating that he actually could still exert his remaining vigor……

"Alright, summon Jin Bing!"

【Ding! The system has given full consideration; please feel free to use it, the summoned Jin Bing possesses no power, and his life and death are entirely at the host's whim.】

Two people from different times and spaces truly clasped hands……
