Chapter 1244: Home!

Home!

A long-awaited big cup~

A reunion inexplicably turned into an apology session.

After venting, Xiang Honglin also said a "sorry." She pulled up the pig-headed Qin Xin, scrutinized him with a strange expression for a long time, and then lifted her head and said:

"I didn't hit you so hard on purpose just because I won't be able to beat you in the future; I just..."

As she spoke, her expression changed, she looked into the distance, and sighed faintly:

"Forget it, there's nothing bad about admitting it. I was just terrified.

In this real universe, gods are so insignificant; what are we?

Qin Xin, hit me back. You saved me; I should say thank you."

Qin Xin coughed lightly, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and smiled:

"The Xiang Honglin I know isn't this sentimental."

He patted Xiang Honglin on the shoulder, then looked at Cheng Shi, sighed helplessly, and said:

"It's good to be back.

What did you discover?"

At the mention of this, Cheng Shi's expression turned solemn. He recounted everything he had seen, but he didn't dare mention that he had brought the throne back; after all, such an act was too terrifying.

Whether the throne hid a secret or a danger was uncertain; it was better to wait until he had a further understanding before mentioning these things to them.

Qin Xin and the Big Cat were terrified upon hearing this, constantly guessing who could have crafted such a thing in that place.

"Since the gods are all dead, is it possible that the one who crafted that throne is a human?"

Qin Xin looked at Cheng Shi. Although he didn't finish his sentence, his expression clearly asked: could it be another... you?

Cheng Shi wasn't sure, but he had indeed guessed as much.

Previously, countless Cheng Shis, including Scar Cheng Shi, had "declared war" on the 【Origin】 in an open, magnanimous way. Therefore, Cheng Shi couldn't imagine what kind of Cheng Shi would piece together such a thing in that place, expressing his covetousness for that throne in such a "dark," "twisted," and "secretive" way.

Blind guessing without any basis was clearly futile, and soon the three of them gave up.

They had stayed in the real universe long enough, and they didn't know how much longer this space-time bridge could exist. After experiencing so many accidents, they knew it was time to leave.

Their bodies might be fine, but their exhausted spirits and minds, as well as the omnipresent fear, no longer allowed them to continue exploring. The real universe was vast; they couldn't become a fatty in one bite.

Thus, the three discussed for a moment, re-anchored their target, aimed in the direction of home, and prepared to leave this terrifying place.

Cheng Shi looked at the abyss beneath the bridge, no longer feeling the eagerness to go home he had before, but only questioning the purpose of the God of Fun.

Upon returning this time, would the Fear Sect still unify fear as usual?

He didn't know.

The three looked at each other, their expressions different. They counted down three seconds and jumped together into the twisted flowing light beside the long bridge.

Thus, the real universe returned to tranquility...

As if.

This place was never short of liveliness.

Just after the three left, Jieshu and another hooded person, who had disappeared before, appeared on the long bridge again.

They looked in the direction the three had left, silent for a long time, their expressions different.

After a long while, the other hooded person clenched their fists nervously and said: "Why is he so strong in every world?"

Jieshu snorted coldly: "Otherwise, why would we be looking for a world without him?"

The hooded person hesitated for a moment and asked again: "Can't we snatch his opportunity?"

"Opportunity?" Jieshu sneered, "Do you think the gaze of the gods has no weight?

You haven't seen how many Fate Weavers have been crushed along the way.

When seeing a thing, one cannot only see its length and not its shortness. He is the person chosen by 【Nothingness】; what are you?"

"..."

The hooded person was clearly unconvinced, but at the thought of that scene, they loosened their clenched fists.

"I am indeed nothing. I just want to live. Let's go, it's time to get on the road."

Just as the two were preparing to leave the Space-Time Pig Bridge to go to another world, two figures suddenly appeared beside them.

These two figures startled the hooded person behind Jieshu as soon as they appeared. Fortunately, Jieshu was relatively calm. Looking at the two identical faces in front of him, he frowned, thought for a moment, and realized something, sneering:

"It seems we aren't the only ones wanting to chase a 'beautiful home.'

Pity, you came a step late; that person has gone home."

Upon hearing the words "gone home," the two figures were clearly stunned.

They looked at each other, both seeing the disbelief in the other's eyes.

Tricked again!

But this time it wasn't the small one who tricked them, but the big one!

Correct, these two figures were Cheng Fraud and Cheng Destiny.

They had intended to come here to collect the reward they were owed, but unexpectedly heard the news that Cheng Shi had safely returned home. At this, the "wanderers'" sky was about to "collapse."

The real universe is vast; even wanderers who have drifted for many years might not find a single figure in their lifetime.

So there are many existences like them who have lost their original worlds and are drifting in the real universe, but some may never meet in their entire lives.

The reason they could lock onto Cheng Shi's position on the real universe so quickly, besides being able to detect space-time fluctuations, was mostly because they had been "spoiled" by someone long ago.

Yes, spoiled!

Not long ago, the God of Fun from a certain world suddenly found them and asked them to cooperate in acting out a play, but He only provided the stage and not the script. How the play went depended entirely on the individual actors' performance. There was only one point: He insisted that the actors say the line, "【Fraud】 destroys the world, Destiny saves the world."

Originally, Cheng Fraud and Cheng Destiny didn't want to take it, but helplessly, that 【Fraud】 gave too much. He said:

"I can guarantee to you that this world will not be destroyed by the 【Origin】 like your world. As for how to escape from this unsolvable experiment...

After you finish this performance, I can tell you."

Cheng Fraud didn't believe it for a second, but Cheng Destiny wanted to take a gamble.

Facts proved that they lost the bet.

As Cheng Fraud expected, after 【Fraud】 reneged on the debt, he disappeared directly.

Although they could go to that world through space-time loopholes to "collect the debt," what would be the point?

Disturbing another world excessively was not their original intention, and besides, they hadn't found a successor yet, so they couldn't leave the real universe.

And so, the two clowns who had been played by Cheng Shi were colored again on the Space-Time Pig Bridge, and brushed into brand-new clowns once more.

But no matter how much of a clown, this was ultimately a clown's "family affair."

So when Cheng Fraud heard Jieshu's sarcastic remarks, he sneered and asked back:

"Do you think your foolish actions have an answer?"

"???"

Jieshu's expression sank, biting his teeth in hatred.

This was why he wanted to find a world without Cheng Shi. There was indeed selfishness mixed in, and that selfishness was: he should stay away from this jinx!

"Whether there is or isn't, at least it has nothing to do with you two."

Jieshu snorted coldly and took the hooded person away.

Seeing the Space-Time Pig Bridge fall into cold silence again, Cheng Fraud and Cheng Destiny looked at each other, both seeing the worry in the other's eyes.

They weren't afraid of being tricked, because they knew that was the nature of the God of Fun.

But they were quite worried about the line the God of Fun emphasized. No matter what, a benefactor who had sent them out of the world at the cost of his life, even if it wasn't the same one, couldn't possibly commit an act of world destruction.

They couldn't help but wonder: was the He who reneged on the debt preparing a bigger scam for His believers, or was He Himself a scam?

That benefactor who wrote so many scripts for Cheng Shi... did He really know that answer?

Reality, a villa in an unknown city.

Back, finally back!

The moment he opened his eyes and saw the Big Cat villa, Cheng Shi let out a fierce... not even a bit.

Although he had indeed left the real universe and returned to the world, he had to confirm whether this was his own world.

No matter how logical a guess is, it is never the truth until verified.

On her own turf, Xiang Honglin was clearly excited, and her confidence became full. She rushed into her home at the first opportunity, quickly checked all the furnishings, and then ran out to nod fiercely at the two:

"Absolutely correct, this is it, we're back!"

Qin Xin's sharp gaze suddenly relaxed. Clearly, even the strongest-willed warrior would have some lingering fear when encountering a terrifying predicament like space-time distortion; after all, An Mingyu's experience was still fresh in his memory.

And Cheng Shi finally let out a deep breath.

Somehow, after the Big Cat confirmed it was correct, he suddenly felt some extremely subtle fluctuations, as if time that had been misplaced for no reason had been precisely corrected, destiny that had gone astray had returned to its established path, and even the desire to lie in his heart had become boiling.

At this moment, the return of faith made him feel "comfortable."

This was the world he was familiar with, and no longer the helpless real universe.

However, as steady as Cheng Shi was, he still didn't completely let his guard down. He needed to confirm that all relationships in this world hadn't shown a trace of chaos, so he began to contact the Clown.

He needed to know whether these liars had found the Nose of Discrimination amidst laughter and mockery in the ten-plus days he had been away from the world.

The first one he contacted was none other than the Doctor, because the Doctor's rigor was enough to provide the most precise judgment.

At the same time, the other two also began to verify their interpersonal relationships.

Qin Xin nodded goodbye to the two, returned to the Fire-Passing Hall with his authority, and before leaving, he solemnly promised the Fire-Passer's friendship to the two, and promised that at any time the 【War】 authority would be willing to follow his friend into a war.

Xiang Honglin called Tao Yi at the first opportunity, and the two best friends began to whisper, but soon a scream from the Big Cat came from the villa.

"What!?"

And it was at this moment that the Doctor's voice came through Cheng Shi's phone.

"You're finally back.

In the one hundred and four days you disappeared, we gained nothing. Guess why?

Also, where exactly did you go?

Praise the Foolish Play."
