Shuo Bai looked into Yue Qing's eyes.

The first time I saw this little thing, it was following behind her father and I could only look at it secretly.

Now I can sit down with myself and express my own opinions.

Time is really unfair to human beings.

Humans have such a short time to exist in this world that their experience of everything is so fleeting.

But in other words.

Time is so partial to human beings.

Although humans are such a short-lived race and are so fragile, they can accomplish great feats in such a short life that no other species can do.

"Sister Shuo... my father... is he dead?"

Shuo Bai clearly remembered that on the day her father died twenty years ago, the girl mustered up the courage to come to him for the first time. She held up the corner of his clothes and asked him about her father in a timid tone.

How did I answer at that time?

Your father is still alive, as long as you remember him and other people remember him, he is still alive.

"Shuoju, Shuoju?"

At Yue Qing's call, Shuo Bai withdrew his gaze from those years and once again looked at the woman in front of him.

She is over thirty years old, and years of work have made her look a little haggard.

It was said that she was not in good health.

"Shuo Ju, are you listening to me?"

"you lost weight."

After a long while, Shuo Bai said lightly.

"...Well, thank you for your concern, but now, I want to talk to you about something serious."

"Nothing is more important than your body and life."

Shuo Bai slowly stood up.

"I know what you want to say, and I also know what you want me to do. Bet on Li Muhan, so that the things in his body can no longer continue to sleep."

"That's right, Director Shuo. Maybe you're the only one who can help him now. The situation is turbulent now. Director Chang must stabilize the situation in the human world. If possible..." Yue Qing walked to Shuo Bai.

Just like that little girl who mustered up the courage to come before her.

"...Can you go to the underworld with him?"

......

Hall of Ten Thousand Demons, if Li Muhan’s eyes were not fixed here.

Then time here may never continue to move.

Baal sat on his throne. The once powerful Demon King was now watching a large historical TV series.

He had waited too long.

It would be a lie to say that he had no hatred towards this world or China which imprisoned him here.

But for some reason, this hatred was not as strong as he thought.

Bal even felt that at least here he could get a moment of peace.

Souls of Hades.

Baal knew that no matter in which mythological system, the underworld was not a place that could be entered at will.

The leader of Solomon's 72 demons.

Lord of the Legion.

king.

These titles seemed so powerless and ridiculous when she faced the man named Li Chengtian.

But is it really so?

"Come forward."

Baal spoke lightly, and the dark figure in the shadows slowly stepped into the slightly brighter area of ​​the temple. The tall figure, handsome face, and the confident smile on the man's face made Baal feel extremely disgusted.

"What's the matter."

Bal said calmly.

"First of all, I want to express my gratitude, Your Majesty."

The man bowed slightly to Baal, "Thank you for your willingness to condescend to help this child."

"The agreement between you and me is very clear. If this alien species named Li Muhan is not worthy of my gaze, I will destroy it with my own hands."

Bal's eyes were extremely cold, as if he had returned to being the extremely powerful Demon King who looked down upon all the heroes.

"Even so, I still need to express my gratitude to you."

The man bowed a second time, then slowly took a step forward.

"You voluntarily let that madman named Li Chengtian break up your soul and imprison you here. Under Loki's guidance, the child was able to awaken and meet you. You also gave him enough help, but..."

"Be careful what you say."

A golden light flashed in Baal's eyes.

It seemed to stop the man from continuing.

"It would be good if you could understand, Li Muhan, that you are just a container after all. You are not prisoners, but the true masters of this Noah's Ark. This ship will eventually take you to a new dimension. By then, neither the rift creatures nor the Heart of the World can control your fate, King."

"Let me ask you a question."

Bal slowly propped up his chin with his hand, stared into the man's gentle eyes and asked, "From the beginning to the end, Li Muhan, there is only one way to go, right?"

The temple fell into a rare silence. Finally, the man smiled and nodded: "The container has no life or death. Its existence is for this mission. When the moment of destiny comes, you and all the beings in this temple will become..."

"Okay, you can go away." Bal raised his hand and waved it slightly, as if he wanted to drive away an annoying fly.

"Before I leave, I want to know, Lord Barr, whether your position has changed."

The man's eyes also changed slightly. "As the first demon thrown here, and as our initial collaborator, you should not have any sympathy for a container."

Bal sneered and then slowly stood up.

"Your existence is indeed special. Even among the gods, you are an outlier. But this does not mean that you can challenge my patience at will. I have said it before, and I will say it again."

"Go back."

Boom——

A dull thunder rumbled in the temple.

The man slowly retreated into the shadows, but his eyes were fixed on Baal: "As you wish, noble king, when you see the moment of change coming, I believe you will make the most correct choice."

The man's breath slowly disappeared, and the golden runes around Baal gradually went out.

He looked at the TV in front of him.

And the programs currently playing on TV.

Human beings are interesting creatures, Solomon.

......

Hypnos seemed to sense something. She stood at the door of her temple, closed her eyes, and felt the power of thunder.

Then she slowly opened her eyes.

"Baal, you are just like Lucifer. You didn't lend all your power to Li Muhan... Even when Li Muhan was in the most dangerous moment, you still held back. What exactly do you want to do? Tell me, what are you waiting for..."

......

Bafomet is mixing a new potion, one that can melt the creature called Golden Crow from last time into mucus.

"Ah! It's so annoying! It's so annoying! Old Bavroche doesn't understand! Why can't he do it!"

"Because that little thing is the descendant of the Three-legged Golden Crow. Why do you, a maggot, want to melt the sun? You are really courting death."

Lilith was standing by the bookshelf in Baphomet's hut, flipping through some ancient books.

"Hey! Take your claws away! Banshee! Don't touch old Baphomet's manuscript!"

"What does it matter? Our enemies are all Gods, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Let me see what's going on."

"Ah! Ah! Old Baphomet doesn't like you! You stink! Stink! Go back quickly!"

"You are so ugly, how dare you say that others stink? Maybe in your eyes, apart from the rotten smell on your body, all other smells are stinky."

Lilith smiled after she finished speaking, and then she took out a parchment scroll from the bookshelf.

"This is...a contract...Lucifer's contract. Why is it here with you?"

"Hehehe, old Baphrodite can go anywhere and get anything he wants, including Lucifer's secrets! Hehe, old Baphrodite knows that the woman, the fallen angel, is not as powerless as she said. She is waiting... just like the Abaddon Yama demon, the two red dragons are waiting."

"Waiting for what?" Lilith asked.

"Hahaha! You're not a guest! I won't tell you!"

"What about you?" Lilith changed the subject.

"What are you waiting for?"

Old Baphomet paused from stirring the cauldron.

It supported itself on the edge of the cauldron and turned its head. The eyes on the goat's head stared at Lilith intently: "Wait for the end, banshee. By the way, I also want to ask you, banshee, when the end comes, what will be your choice?"

I thought this woman would just be perfunctory with me. After all, witches are the best at deceiving people.

But unexpectedly, Lilith said without any hesitation: "I will choose Li Muhan."

"...Unexpected answer, why?"

"Because he is very cute and handsome."

"Ah! Idiot woman! Succubus! Idiot! Get out!"

Inside the stone gate, in that spiritual world, the sleeping god seemed to be disturbed by some breath, and it slowly opened its eyes.

Then the whole space suddenly welcomed daylight.

[The end is coming, we will abide by the contract, hold the candle to illuminate the world, do not worry or fear, my eyes will be able to illuminate your path]

At this moment, the man seemed to have heard the responses from all the gods in the Temple of Ten Thousand Demons.

What surprised him was that within such a short period of time, several demon gods were determined to carry out the plan.

Now I am a little hesitant.

And Zhulong made it clear that he would stand on Li Muhan's side.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The more powerful you are, the less you can see the road ahead, Zhulong, even if you are so powerful, how can you resist the torrent of fate."

He walked slowly onto the stage of the opera house, and the spotlight slowly shone on him.

"Without the defense system, without those clever phantoms left by Li Chengtian, this is my stage now."

......

Li Muhan slowly opened his eyes.

He sat up in bed. The dream he just had was very strange.

He dreamed of Baal, Lucifer, Baalph, and Lilith, and even Zhulong seemed to be whispering to him.

But now he couldn't remember what they had said.

And that mysterious figure, who is that...

Xia Yue was sleeping soundly beside him. Li Muhan tiptoed to the window, took out a cigarette box, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth.

But it didn't ignite yet.

Li Muhan never had the habit of smoking, but this pack of cigarettes was found at the home of Li Chengtian, the owner of the ramen restaurant.

It was handed to Li Muhan by Lin Ze. Of course, Lin Ze was not encouraging Li Muhan to smoke, but it seemed that it would not matter even if Li Muhan smoked. The speed of cancer cell contamination was less than one percent of his recovery speed.

Finally, Li Muhan took out his lighter and nervously wanted to light the first cigarette in his life.

But at this moment, a hand reached out gently and took the cigarette out of his mouth.

“This isn’t for you.”

Xia Yue had come to Li Muhan's side without knowing when.

"You woke up...? Sorry, I disturbed you."

Li Muhan scratched his head and said with a smile.

Xia Yue shook her head slightly, then looked at Li Muhan and said, "When I was a child, Dad was like you. Whenever he had something on his mind, he would go to the balcony alone."

.......The balcony of the castle is incomparable.

Li Muhan complained in his heart.

"Charlotte and I were both still young at the time. Charlotte's impression of her father was rather vague, but for some reason, I always remember it very clearly, that back view, that smile, and those gentle words. I remember my father told me that the world is beautiful and big, and we can all find our own home in this world."

"I asked Dad, isn't this Dad's home?"

"...Dad said this was his home, but it was not his final destination. Not long after, Dad disappeared."

Xia Yue gently leaned on the balcony handrail, with a hint of sadness in her eyes.

"After Dad left, Xia Luer didn't seem to react at all, but I kept wondering where Dad was going and what he was looking for... So I ran away from home too. I wanted to find Dad, and also the so-called home that Dad talked about, and a destination."

She lay there like this, then slowly turned her head and looked at Li Muhan. There was a warm smile under her face which was slightly covered by the ends of her hair.

"I originally thought that I would never find it, and my heart gradually became indifferent. I no longer cared about anything. I even felt that the so-called destination might be death."

"I hope that the heavy rain can completely dissolve me, and let me become one of the countless water drops... flowing along the river and finally into the sea, but you..."

Xia Yue gently took Li Muhan's hand and placed it on her cheek.

"But you bad guy, you shielded me from the rain, you brought me back home, you... are such a... bastard."

Li Muhan put his arms around Xia Yue's waist, then bent down and kissed her face.

"Yes, I am a bad guy, and this bad guy will occupy your life forever. You will never reach the sea, because your destination is here."

"Well... my destination is here, my home is here, so Li Muhan, if you encounter any problems, please..."

"Xia Yue."

Li Muhan looked at Xia Yue solemnly, and then said seriously and earnestly.

"Let's get married."
