Chapter 1260: Long Jing?

...... Long Jing?

The Trickster Master did not have that much strength, nor could he use his hands and feet at will like nothing had happened after they had been broken.

But just because the Trickster Master couldn't, didn't mean others couldn't.

At the very least, these movements were nothing more than simple for an acrobat.

That's right, the person lying flat on the ground was not Su Yi Da, but Long Jing!

Long Jing sometimes felt that the world's malice toward him was truly too great, especially when he encountered Cheng Shi and Zhen Xin.

At first, he didn't know who he would run into in this trial; he only saw that this was the Joy God's trial, and since the topic involved a "Xie Mu Performance," he felt his opportunity had arrived.

He was going to shine brilliantly in this trial, find every clue before all his teammates, crack every puzzle, and ascend to the final stage amidst his teammates' shock, offering them an excellent curtain call performance!

The most brilliant part was that after this curtain call performance, no one would remember him, yet he would have simultaneously completed a performance on another stage outside of this trial.

Because the person he was playing in this trial was one of his own peers—that Trickster Master who walked alongside Jieshu!

To explain all of this clearly, one must start from when Cheng Shi assigned tasks to the Jesters.

When the Jesters learned that the Nose of Discernment was within Laughter and Scorn, everyone had a drive in their hearts, wanting to be the first to find the Nose of Discernment.

Of course, this was what Long Jing thought; as for whether the others thought the same...... he felt they did.

But who could have imagined that just after Cheng Shi left, Laughter and Scorn simply vanished.

The Jesters had nowhere to go and could only continue doing their own things, and Long Jing also refocused his attention back onto Jieshu.

He had originally thought the act he put on with Long Wang was quite good, and that Jieshu would eventually come looking for him, but he waited and waited without seeing Jieshu, instead hearing news of another swindler by Jieshu's side.

A Trickster Master surnamed Su.

?

Besides a certain Trickster Master surnamed Zhen, what other Trickster Master dared to crap on my head?

Why would Jieshu look for him and not me?

So what if I'm an acrobat?

Even if an acrobat is a jester, doesn't it depend on the occasion!

Who isn't a jester when they go to the Jesters?

At that moment, Long Jing's competitive spirit was activated. He had originally only been interested in the Jieshu group targeting Cheng Shi, but from that day on, he decided to teach this organization a lesson, to tell them that Trickster Masters weren't useful, and that I was the best choice.

But he also hadn't expected Trickster Masters to be so useless.

Long Jing prayed for a scenario where he would bump into the Trickster Master surnamed Su, and as it turned out, he really did run into him. In that trial of 【Fate】, he only followed behind Su Yi Da observing for two days before successfully stealing the other's identity on the third day, letting his teammates "expose" Su Yi Da's "disguise," denouncing the other for imitating a teammate with ill intent.

Su Yi Da's identity was snatched, and he was slandered to boot; he broke down on the spot, and that night he set a trap to kill, making a move on Long Jing silently.

And then he died silently in the night.

Long Jing swore that when he killed the other, he had considered that a Trickster Master favored by Jieshu could not be a simple character and must have a backup plan, so he prepared to take one of the other's lives first as a warning.

Who could have imagined that this Su Yi Da was like paper; he was just snapped by the neck and really died.

After he died, Long Jing didn't even dare to believe it and snapped his own neck, but didn't die...... this only further proved that Trickster Masters were made of paper.

But the other's death truly gave Long Jing a fright.

Of course, it wasn't just shock; there was also a pleasant surprise.

Long Jing seemed to no longer need to insist on joining Jieshu's team with his own identity; he had accidentally obtained a new identity.

The one who died was Su Yi Da's impersonator, what did that have to do with me, the real Su Yi Da?

Thus, a new "Su Yi Da" appeared.

Long Jing felt he was only one opportunity away from meeting Jieshu in a brand-new posture. He was terrified that Jieshu would be suspicious, so he thought about creating a big scene as Su Yi Da to divert Jieshu's attention, so that when the other saw him again, he would focus on asking about current issues rather than details of the past.

That way, it would be easier for him to handle.

And so, he soon waited for the special trial.

And when he finally had this opportunity to complete a "feat" as Su Yi Da...... he ran into Cheng Shi and Zhen Xin again in this trial.

Goddamn fate.

Who could have imagined that the Zhang Jizu and An Mingyu who were blown away would be these two unlucky things?

To be honest, using a Trickster Master's methods to play two God-Chosen in the palm of one's hand, this matter would be face-saving no matter when it was told.

But now......

Where is there any face left? Only a jester's nose remains!

I think there's no need to find this Nose of Discernment; just take my nose off and use it to make do.

Thinking this, the look in Long Jing's eyes as he gazed at the dome became increasingly unfocused.

At the same time, the moment Zhen Xin heard that the Su Yi Da under her feet was Long Jing, she was slightly stunned, then laughed out loud.

"President Gong, is this the surprise performance you prepared for everyone after disappearing for so long?

Hmm, I have to say, it has some novelty.

I think you're wasting your talent as an acrobat; why not go act as a jester like the one in front of you? After all, there is little joy in the world, and there can never be too many jesters."

"......"

"......"

Scolding two people with one sentence, how can one distinguish whether I am Xin or Yi?

Cheng Shi had long said that the older sister's bad luck was no less than the younger sister's, and it was even very possible that some bad luck the world thought was committed by the younger sister was actually committed by the older sister, who then dumped the blame on the younger sister.

Zhen Yi was still too pitiful.

But she deserved it.

Two unlucky ones in the Zhen family, truly bringing glory to the family!

Cheng Shi, with a dark face, ignored the belly-laughing Zhen Xin, stretched out his toe to kick the unfocused Long Jing, and said speechlessly:

"Is playing dead also a required course for acrobatics?

Respected President Gong, can you explain to us what you are doing?

Why impersonate Big Jiang?

Where is Big Jiang?"

Long Jing regained his senses slightly, but didn't get up, just lay spread-eagled on the ground and said blankly: "Dead."

"!!!"

Cheng Shi's pupils shrank, and his tone became serious: "Dead? You killed him?"

Long Jing didn't want to take the blame, but couldn't deny the facts, so he could only nod: "Hmm, but I didn't mean to kill him; he was too easy to kill."

"......"

He always felt these words were sarcastic, but Cheng Shi didn't laugh at all; not only did he not laugh, he even broke out in a cold sweat.

Because he remembered the scene when he went to see the Joy God after that 【Annihilation】 trial that had Su Yi Da in it.

At that time, he asked the Joy God if Su Yi Da had succeeded, and the Joy God's reply was that he was dead, both of him were dead.

At the time, Cheng Shi thought the "both of him" the Joy God spoke of referred to the future Su Yi Da who came to his side and the current Su Yi Da who went to the future, but thinking about it now, if the so-called "future" was another sliced universe, how would the Joy God, who was in the current world, know whether the Su Yi Da who went to the other sliced universe was dead or not?

So, of the "two" He mentioned at the time, could one of them be this current Su Yi Da?

The Su Yi Da that Long Jing killed!?

But you are 【Fraud】, where did this 【Fate】 flavor on your body come from?

Seeing Cheng Shi's face change drastically, Zhen Xin stopped smiling and asked curiously: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing much, just remembered some things from the past."

Cheng Shi shook his head, shook off the miscellaneous thoughts, and looked at Long Jing again.

At this time, Long Jing also regained his senses slightly due to Cheng Shi's change. He sat up slowly, and heard Cheng Shi ask in a strange tone:

"You wanted to play Su Yi Da to join Jieshu's team?

President Gong, could it be that you are doing this to sabotage Jieshu's plan and take the opportunity to make me owe you a favor?

Or is it that you've long been displeased with me and are preparing to hitch a ride on Jieshu's plan to beat me up?"

"!!!"

Whether it was the former or the latter, Long Jing couldn't admit it. He deliberately emptied himself and didn't respond. Not long after, he heard Cheng Shi say again:

"But this actually coincides with my idea.

Speaking of which, I also have an identity here that can be utilized—no, perhaps more than one."

As he spoke, he looked at Zhen Xin, curled his lips, and said:

"Since we're already talking about this, then Miss Magician, are you interested in joining a new plan?

I have tailored a script for you, and all you need to do is simple: play the character well."

Zhen Xin raised her eyebrows with interest: "Play whom?"

Cheng Shi smiled brilliantly:

"Your old friend, the Historian, Zhao Xishi." ===== CHAPTER 1261 =====
