ten minutes later.

Shuying came out of the kitchen tremblingly, holding a plate with four cups of tea on it.

Leia quickly stepped forward and took the plate for her.

"Thank you, thank you!" Shu Ying said breathlessly.

Leia didn't say anything, but just smiled at her.

"So, you really aren't here to collect a debt?"

Chu He sat behind his desk with his legs crossed, looking at the two uninvited guests suspiciously.

"Not only am I not here to collect a debt, I am here to help you solve your financial crisis."

Li Muhan said with a smile.

Chu He looked at Li Muhan with disdain. He was about the same age as himself, and there was no sign of any unusual aura about him. The same was true for the girl next to him.

These two are just ordinary people.

but.....

The corners of his mouth raised slightly.

It's people like this who know nothing that are easy to deceive.

"Ok, ok~ Don't be in a hurry, you should know what I do for a living, right?" A deck of playing cards appeared in Chu He's hand like a magic trick.

"Yeah, private investigator."

"That's right. Let's play a game now... I'll guess what kind of investigation you two would like me to conduct."

The playing cards flew flexibly in his hands, and the smile on Chu He's face became more and more confident.

As long as you scare these newbies at the beginning, you can slaughter them at your will later.

"Come... let me see, you first..." His eyes looked at Li Muhan.

But Li Muhan didn't say anything, just smiled, then stood up from the tattered sofa and walked to the desk.

"Forget about that, Chuhe. You already showed it when I first met you."

Chu He felt puzzled and was about to say something, but the next second, the poker in his hand suddenly disappeared.

He slowly raised his eyes and saw Li Muhan cutting the cards in exactly the same way as he did.

"You said you were a private detective, but I don't think that's true of your profession. You're a..."

Swah——

Li Muhan put all the cards together and then spread them out. Countless cards flew around the two of them and then turned into snowflakes.

"You are a fraudster. The power of your realm is fraud. Not only that, I also know..."

Under the flying snow, Chu He seemed to be staring into the abyss.

And Li Muhan's voice seemed to be transmitted directly into his mind.

"You raised a creature from the rift...Your deception skills can even make the creatures in the rift fall into hallucinations."

There was a hint of eerieness in Li Muhan's voice: "Think about it...if that little mouse knew her true identity...do you think she would..."

"How dare you."

Chu He stood up and looked at Li Muhan, but he soon discovered.

I can't compare to this man in terms of momentum or confidence.

"who are you."

There was a hint of murderous intent in Chu He's eyes.

Li Muhan didn't mind at all.

He slowly stretched out his hand, spread it out, and then the playing card appeared in his hand intact.

"I am your guest...and there is only one thing I want you to do, use your power."

"Deceive me."

......

When Li Muhan opened his eyes again.

He was back on the stage of the opera house.

At this moment, there were those familiar figures sitting in the audience.

Baal, Hypnos, Lilith, Baphomet, and Lucifer in chains.

They all stared at Li Muhan on the stage.

"..."

Li Muhan stood on the stage, and then the lights slowly went out, and the spotlight came on, shining on Li Muhan.

"Everyone, today, I have something I want to tell you."

Li Muhan glanced at the demons and gods in the audience.

"I suddenly don't know how to start. There are old acquaintances here, Baal and Lucifer. Although one of you has a bad temper and the other is sarcastic, to be honest, your strength has helped me overcome many difficulties. I am very grateful to you."

Bal folded his arms over his chest and snorted coldly.

Lucifer simply bowed his head slightly to salute Li Muhan.

"Hypnos..." Li Muhan looked at the yawning girl again: "You are a transfer student, but I promise you that I will definitely restore your godhood."

"Well...it's okay. It's okay to stay in your body for a while longer."

"Then...well, Baphomet, you've been complained about many times. I hope you won't make those weird foods in my body in the future..."

The goat-headed demon covered his mouth and chuckled: "Hehehe, everything old Bafomei makes is good. You don't understand. If you take a bite, you will understand."

Finally, there is Lilith.

"Lilith, even though I have only spent the shortest time with you, because of your power, my most important family members no longer have to live in fear. Thank you."

"All I did was make a deal. It's your decision how to use that power, so don't thank me, kid."

Lilith looked at Li Muhan with a smile.

"Well... I think everyone should have understood what I am going to say."

Li Muhan took two steps forward and looked at the people in the audience.

"Thank you for your help along the way. Now... it's time to say goodbye."

"No, kid."

A voice suddenly sounded from the corner, and then the spotlight shone on the man's head.

Elias.

"The last time you taught me to use the Pantheon to break open the door of the Temple of the Gods, you also wanted to take that opportunity to hide in my temple, right? Should I call you dad now?"

Li Muhan looked at Elias and said with a smile.

"...That's not important, kid, listen to me, you can't give up the Pantheon so easily. This is the foundation of your existence. You began to absorb the power of the Pantheon when you came to this world. Now, you want to give it up. Can you really do it?"

Elias walked towards the stage step by step.

"Think about it. This temple still has so many secrets and so much power waiting for you to discover. These are all precious treasures of this world. Can you really give up so easily, kid?"

"I don't know why you suddenly made this decision, but I can tell you that it is unwise. You need strength to help you defeat the end, so..."

"Ah, you just said... the end, right?"

Li Muhan's smile became weird.

".....Yes, I know the end, but for some reason, I can't tell you, Li Muhan, no...wait, why do you know the end?"

Elias slowly stepped onto the steps of the stage.

Then his steps stopped.

Because he seemed to feel the changes in Li Muhan's existence.

"...Where on earth did you know this?"

Elias's voice gradually turned cold.

"You just said that it's not important. That means you think your daughter Xia Yue's marriage is not important to you at all, right?"

"...Child, we are discussing the future and destiny of this world. I can help you understand this temple and give you even greater power."

"Elias."

Li Muhan also walked towards Elias step by step.

"Since this place is so nice, I'll leave it to you..."

Elias almost wondered if he was seeing things.

Why did this gentle boy show such a horrifying expression at this moment?

"Accident... Elias."

"It's a pity that I can't kill you now, otherwise I would tear your face apart without hesitation."

"How dare you? How dare you kill my beloved in front of me, in front of me... Elias, wait and watch here. I will crush the end you are looking forward to with my own hands."
