I Am Not the God of Drama

Go If You Want To

"Red King, My Lord, then are we going or not?" Liu Qingyan asked again.

"Since it's a personal invitation from the Lord of Spirit Void, I naturally have to go."

Chen Ling also wanted to know exactly what Wu Tongyuan wanted to find the Dusk Society for. If he could reach a consensus with Wu Tongyuan during this conference, then subsequently collecting the Nine Monarchs would become much more convenient... As for the risks, Chen Ling had already experienced too much along the way. What did this little risk count as to him?

"Then what about the other Dusk Society members?" Liu Qingyan paused for a moment. "Even if you are confident in retreating unscathed, if they go, it might be too risky."

Chen Ling pondered for a long time. Finally, he smiled faintly. He directly conjured a brush from the Ancient Vault of the Drama Path and wrote four large characters in the void with vigorous and lively Dragon Soaring And Phoenix Dancing strokes.

The moment she saw these four characters, Liu Qingyan was stunned...

After finishing writing, the figure in the Theatrical Robe turned around and walked into the distance.

Liu Qingyan respectfully bowed to his back:

...

"Yay!! It's a Hongmen Banquet!!"

Nine of Hearts spread his hands excitedly, like a child who had seen something novel. Two puffs of steam continuously sprayed out from his nostrils, and the words "want to go" were written all over his body.

Beside him, Eight of Clubs, who was painting, silently rolled his eyes...

"Sick."

"Tsk... Boring." Nine of Hearts also returned an eye roll.

But immediately after, Nine of Hearts' eyes rolled around again. His elbow directly locked around Eight of Clubs' neck, and he spoke familiarly:

"But speaking of which, do you really not want to go? This is the first time someone has issued an invitation to our Dusk Society... Do you really not want to go and see what the situation is?"

Eight of Clubs hesitated for a moment. "But that's someone else's territory after all. What kind of strength do you and I have? If they have ill intentions, what's the difference between that and sending ourselves to death?"

"Ill intentions? Haha... I'm afraid they don't know how to write the words 'perishing together'."

"You can go perish together by yourself. I don't want to die yet."

"Aiya, don't be so boring!"

"You should calm down and wait for the Red King's orders." Eight of Clubs paused for a moment. "With this matter causing such a huge commotion, the Red King, the old man, definitely knows about it already. I estimate it won't be long before he sends us a message, telling us not to act recklessly..."

"Old man? How do you know the new Red King is an old man?" Nine of Hearts' curiosity was immediately diverted.

"I guessed... Think about it, the previous Red King seemed to be an old monster who lived for several hundred years. This new Red King definitely can't be that much younger, right... In all likelihood, he's also a conservative, steady, mysterious, and unknown old man."

Eight of Clubs put down his Paintbrush and showed his imagined "profile" of the new Red King to Nine of Hearts. Sure enough, it was a wrinkled little old man with a trace of vulgarity in his eyes.

"Hiss... An old man, huh. That's very boring." Nine of Hearts shook his head regretfully.

Knock, knock, knock——

Just as the two were talking, a rhythmic knocking sound came from the door.

The two of them's nerves instantly tensed up, and they looked at the door simultaneously. It should be known that they were currently hiding in the Safe House set up by the Dusk Society in the Human Domains. Normally, absolutely no one should come knocking on the door...

The two looked at each other. Excited battle intent immediately surfaced in Nine of Hearts' eyes. He carefully fumbled to the side of the wall...

And then violently kicked the door open!

Outside the door was completely empty.

A trace of confusion flashed through Nine of Hearts' eyes. In the next second, Eight of Clubs bent down and picked up two letter papers from the threshold.

Seeing the faintly familiar patterns on the letter paper, Eight of Clubs raised his brows slightly. "It's a message from the Dusk Society, and there's one copy for each of us... Interesting. The last time we encountered a situation where all members received letters simultaneously was when the Red King ordered us to go to the Wuji Domain for 'Team Building' together."

"You mean, this is..."

"The first order from the new Red King."

Eight of Clubs guessed right. With the Spirit Void Domain causing such a huge commotion, this new Red King couldn't possibly have no action. He immediately tore open the letter, only to find that there were only four large words on it...

Seeing these four words, Eight of Clubs' expression instantly became incomparably wonderful.

"Alright... I take back what I just said."

"What words?"

"This new Red King is definitely not an old man... On the contrary, he might be unimaginably young."

Seeing this, Nine of Hearts' curiosity was about to overflow. He immediately tore open the letter in his hand as well, and four equally vigorous and lively large characters appeared before his eyes...

——[Go If You Want To].

...

"Go If You Want To?"

When Bai Ye saw the contents on the letter, he was stunned for a moment, and then laughed dumbly.

Beside him, an Elderly Lady leaning on a Walking Stick, trembling unsteadily, also saw the contents on the letter. A faint smile curled up at the corners of her mouth...

"Our new leader... truly has courage."

"Compared to courage, his confidence is the core." Bai Ye spoke slowly,

"[Go If You Want To], is not just as simple as truly letting everyone go if they want to... Behind these four words means that no matter which Dusk Society member it is, no matter their strength, as long as they go to this conference, he has the confidence to Act as a Safety Net for everyone..."

"In his eyes, this public conference that alarmed the entire Human Domains is no different from a spring outing Team Building."

"This new leader of ours is truly very interesting." The Elderly Lady seemed to like these four words very much. She carefully folded the letter and put it in her pocket, her eyes narrowing into slits with a smile.

Bai Ye shrugged. "I actually feel... this style seems familiar."

"Then what do you say? Are we going or not?"

Queen of Diamonds pondered for a long time, and finally sighed softly, speaking calmly:

"Since this new Red King has already said so, if we don't go join the fun, it would instead make us seem ignorant..."

"The Spirit Void Domain, shall we make a trip?"

"Let's go..."

"I also want to see exactly what kind of medicine this Lord of Spirit Void is selling in his gourd."

...

A few days later.

Three figures traversed the dead silent Gray World.

"We're almost there." Jian Changsheng looked towards the outline of the domain that appeared at the end of the horizon in the distance. "This Spirit Void Domain is truly far... If we don't take the domain train, it's really unbearable."

"The Human Domains finally managed to figure out a way to replace the failed components and modified a few domain trains that can barely run. The number of trips they can transport every day is only so few... The three of us can't change faces, so it's too difficult to sneak on." Sun Bumian shrugged.

"Sigh... Fortunately, there are fewer Calamities in the Gray World now. Otherwise, we'd have to deal with Calamities while walking, which would be annoying to death."

Jian Changsheng curled his lips.

"Wasn't it you who insisted on coming to the Spirit Void Domain to take a look?" Sun Bumian was somewhat speechless.

"That... that can't be blamed on me. It was the Red King who said we could come if we wanted to! With him to Act as a Safety Net for us, what are we afraid of!" Jian Changsheng scratched his head. "However, speaking of which..."

"Just who exactly is this new Red King?"
