Seeing that the dagger was about to pierce his chest, Tuanzi, who had been looking scared, suddenly had a cold expression. He raised his foot and spitefully kicked the dagger away. In the judge’s stunned expression, the small palm turned into a sharp claw that pierced the judge’s heart.
The change happened in just a second, and by the time the judge regained his senses, Tuanzi, who was smaller than him, had pinned him to the ground.
The boy, who had been a good little cat a moment ago, was now a ferocious tiger. He looked down at the judge with an arrogant and disdainful gaze, and said cruelly, “Just you?”
His voice still carried a childish tone, but the threat in it was not that of a child.
The judge glanced at the demonic child with horror and asked, “Have you been lying to me?”
Tuanzi: “When a tiger doesn’t show its might, do you think it’s a sick cat?”
“I remembered everything the moment the demonic qi entered my body. I didn’t tell Papa and Father the truth because I wanted to make amends.”
“If it wasn’t for me, they wouldn’t be in danger.”
“You see me as a stepping stone? Heh, you’re the one I’m offering them as a gift.”
“I’ve recorded everything you’ve just said in the jade token, Lord Judge. I really have to thank you, at least your death was quite useful.”

In the live broadcast room
[I didn’t expect Tuanzi to be so powerful, I thought he was just a good boy.]
[The best hunters often hunt in the form of prey.]
[I was torn just now, I wanted the judge to kill him so that God Xin could pass. But once I saw Tuanzi’s face, which was full of grievance, I wanted him to survive.]
[To be honest, I have mixed feelings right now. There shouldn’t be a reversal, I’ve thought of many different ways for God Xin to survive, but I couldn’t think of any. Everyone regained their confidence because of God Xin, but even the strongest have to bow to fate. As strong as he is, he will end up dying.]
In the live stream, Bai Lixin did not come out of the bedroom for a day and a night.
The people in the live broadcast had never been as tormented as they were now, and as the countdown ended in the top right corner, the system announcement scrolled up at the top of the screen.
[Ding! Congratulations to the players for completing Task 1. 14 players have survived to the last day.]
[All 13 players have completed their tasks, but 1 player failed to complete a mandatory task.]
[For not completing the task, the player will be punished. Punishment method: beheading.]
The players in the live broadcast room instantly held their breath, their eyes wide open and staring unblinkingly at the screen in front of them, afraid of missing even the slightest bit of information.
[Ding! The player requested a higher level of punishment – Time Cage: Eternal Diamond Mountain].
[Ding! The player will be automatically teleported once the application is approved.]
[Ding! Application approved, > [Ding! Teleportation successful. Player Bai Lixin has been sentenced to [Time Cage: Eternal Diamond Mountain]. The duration of punishment is eternity.]
[Players will now be teleported out of the copy. Teleportation location: Game lobby.]
[Ding! The hidden task of the Underworld copy was triggered; there are no more features to explore, so the copy will be permanently blocked. This copy will no longer be available.]
[I wish you all a happy game.]
—————-
The viewers in the live broadcast room had mixed emotions as they watched the official announcements scroll by one after another on the screen.
[Time cage? The Eternal Diamond Mountain? Fuck, isn’t this system evil? It is said to be more painful than death there, and even the punishment level was above [beheading]! Why would God Xin treat himself like this? If he couldn’t complete the task, isn’t dying better?]
[I’m a bit broken up now, the love story between the big boss and God Xin was so sweet, and now I just want to cry. How I wish that the grand finale stayed at the moment they got married. If only God Xin could stay in the copy forever, the big boss is good to him, and there’s also Tuanzi, they could have lived happily ever after.]
[Why don’t we trust God Xin one more time? He has a reason for every choice he makes, and since he chose Eternal Diamond Mountain, maybe he has a way to leave. Have you forgotten how many miracles he has created from the time he entered this game to now? Which time have we lost hope whenever he was on the verge of death? But not only did he come through each time, but he also finished with flying colors.]
[He’s not an ordinary man; we can’t compare him to the former prisoners. He’s Superman, he’s a god, we have to believe in him and just wait patiently for his return.]
[Yes! That’s right! I believe Brother is coming back! From now on I will train myself hard, and when Brother returns, I will never be a burden to Brother again!]
[Yes, we believe too!]
[We believe in him!]
[We believe in him!]
There was no discussion and no rehearsal. After a short period of confusion, the barrage began to swipe this same line in unison.
Even though no one had ever escaped from the time cage, they believed in Bai Lixin for some reason. They believed in the young man who had suddenly appeared at their most painful and helpless moments.
This young man had brought them hope and a new attitude towards life, he was hope and a hammer in this frightening game.
He had provoked the rules, satirized the power of the copies, and saved innocent NPCs with his own power.
Yes, if he could even save those tiny NPCs, how could he not save himself?!
Although the live stream ended and the screen turned black, forcibly turning off the audience’s comments, the fire had already been lit. How can it be easily extinguished?
——————
After days, Dijia finally walked out of the room.
Instead of wearing the red wedding outfit, he changed into a black brocade.
Tuanzi looked at Dijia, who had come to the main hall alone, and looked up in dismay. “Father, why is it just you? Where’s Papa?”
Afraid that Dijia would not see it, he deliberately kicked the corpse of the judge by his feet.
Dijia’s gaze had already returned to one of indifference and he had even lost a little bit of his former glow. He faintly swept a glance at the judge and said expressionlessly, “Did you kill him?”
Tuanzi nodded, “Yes, It was me! He’s the traitor who conspired with Meng Po. He was planning to kill me yesterday, but I killed him first!”
Dijia sighed, and within moments, he lost strength and his whole being was unusually decadent. “I know.”
Tuanzi: “Huh?”
Dijia: “Didn’t you ask where your Papa was? He’s gone.”
Tuanzi tilted his head and said, “Gone? Where, to the living souls’ area? Did you make Papa angry? It’s okay, we’ll go coax him together.”
Dijia gave a bitter smile and looked at Tuanzi with complicated eyes. “It’s impossible to bring him back, he’s not from the same world as us.”
“I knew that the Judge was the traitor from the moment Meng Po fell into the River of Forgetfulness and that it was the Judge who pushed her into the water. He was clever enough to stand right by Meng Po. If we couldn’t come back, he’d follow her. When we came up, he pushed Meng Po down.”
“You are the demon baby, and the task your papa received was to kill the demon baby. You may not understand much, but I won’t bother to say more, so just understand as much as you can.”
“He didn’t want to kill you. But not killing you meant he had to receive a very severe punishment.”
“Between you and Bai Lixin, I would choose him without hesitation. But I knew that if I killed you myself, he would hate me. So I did not arrest the judge at once, and left it to fate.”
“If the Judge could kill you, it would help Bai Lixin to complete his task, and I would kill the Judge to avenge you.”
“If you killed the judge in return, then it proves that you are already capable enough. You’ll be the new King Yama, and I would be able to go look for your papa.”
Tuanzi stared at the man on the high seat in dismay, as if he couldn’t digest so many words for a moment.
Dijia: “If you want to hate, hate me.”
Tuanzi stared blankly at Dijia, and finally gulped, “So, Papa protected me, while knowing that he could die if he didn’t kill me?”
Dijia’s expression froze for a couple of seconds, then he covered his face and stifled a laugh, “After all I’ve said, that’s all you’ve heard?”
Tuanzi rolled his eyes and said, “Papa is family, you buy one and get one free. Let’s not mention you wanting to kill me; I would kill you to have Papa all to myself.”
Dijia: “……”
This brat is so fucking filial!
Tuanzi put his hands behind his back like a little adult: “You want me to be King Yama, right? That’s fine.”
Dijia: “Good, I have arranged for Black and White Wuchang, Ma Mian, and Niu Tian, and the rest of them, to assist you. You need to find a suitable candidate to become Meng Po by yourself, but I’m sure you’ll be able to find one.”
Tuanzi raised his head proudly and said, “That’s right, I’ll be king Yama, a Yama that is better than you were. At least I’ll find a wife in the future that won’t run off the next day.”
Dijia: “……”
Or maybe I should just kill him now and bury him in the ground!
………
Seeing that Dijia was about to leave, Tuanzi, who had been struggling to hold his emotions together, suddenly spoke, “We… will see each other again, won’t we?”
Although he asked casually, he could not hide the vulnerability and tremble in his voice.
Dijia gave a silent laugh.
He’s still a child, after all.
“Perhaps,” Dijia didn’t want to deceive the boy, “since this world is interchangeable with the other worlds, perhaps we will meet again one day.”
Tuanzi nodded and said, “That’s good. I’ll trouble you with one more thing, help me give Papa a message when you see him.”
Dijia: “What message?”
Tuanzi: “If Father treats you badly, you can come to me; I’ll always reserve a seat for you.”
Dijia: “??!”
What the hell?
——————
In a spacious and luxurious pitch-black room, there was a crisp clash of glazed crystals.
The man who had been lying on the bed slowly opened his dark eyes.
Main System: [My Lord, welcome back from your slumber.]
