at the same time.

Let us turn our attention to Xu Baijing, a good friend of mankind.

Xu Baijing spent the most painful three months of his life.

Being scolded, mocked by the entire network, losing all announcements, having his father, CEO Xu Bianzhou, unilaterally announce the termination of the father-son relationship, and another wealthy father, Xu Yan, also being in a financial crisis...all these are secondary.

After being ridiculed by the whole network, you can turn the situation around and find a notice.

But his koi luck completely disappeared!

It was not like he had not made Xu Bianzhou angry before, and he would just act coquettishly and play pitiful to deal with it, but this time Xu Bianzhou seemed really determined to break off relations with him.

He didn't answer the phone and didn't reply to the text messages. Xu Baijing used his usual method of playing the victim. He carried the soup cooked by the servant and went to wait for him downstairs of Xu Bianzhou's company in the heavy rain. However, he was "asked" to leave by the security guard and was laughed at by everyone in the company.

Xu Baijing was furious: "Damn Xu Bianzhou, it's fine if you don't want to be my dad, but I still have four dads who can't spoil me enough."

But it's much more than that.

And after he left Xu Bianzhou and drove away from Windsor Castle that day, endless misfortunes and all kinds of strange things began to haunt him.

He felt like he was possessed by a vampire. He dreamed of stitched dolls, and when he looked in the mirror, he would suddenly see a pale, ghostly, aristocratic woman with long hair. There were often two shadows under his feet, and they would strangle him...

Three months, a full three months, he has become extremely neurotic.

"I can't stand this kind of life for even a second!!!" Xu Baijing was completely devastated. He sat in front of the Feng Shui master, dark circles under his eyes. "I get it. Even if Wen Xingze is a dragon and I can't mess with him, I can always find someone else, right? I will definitely stay away from him from now on!"

Xu Baijing was the kind of person who was timid and had little willpower, a stupid and vicious villain. Although he hated Wen Xingze, after these two incidents, he knew that Wen Xingze was not someone he could afford to offend.

——The reason why he clung to Wen Xingze to absorb his luck was because he knew the plot and understood that Wen Xingze was destined to be cannon fodder and easy to bully. On the other hand, it was also because Wen Xingze's aura was very special and could help him win over five wealthy fathers.

It has nothing to do with fate, it is the aura formed by character and soul that makes Wen Xingze destined to be loved by many people.

But this doesn't mean that he can only absorb the luck of Wen Xingze. Since Wen Xingze is not capable, he will find a softer persimmon to squeeze. Anyway, he can't live like this anymore!

Feng Shui Master: "...Mr. Xu, calm down first. Don't you think that your reappearance after ten chapters, as a tool, must be suspicious?"

In fact, the Feng Shui master no longer wanted to help Xu Baijing. This man had no idea at all. However, one of Xu Baijing's adoptive fathers was a famous senior in the Feng Shui world. If he offended Xu Baijing, he would not be able to survive in the world of charlatans.

Xu Baijing: "What the hell are you talking about?"

"Buddha doesn't save fools," the Feng Shui master sighed helplessly and said, "Forget it, I'll find you another sucker."

"No, I already have a choice."

Xu Baijing took out a photo, which was the latest photo of the Milan fashion show.

The woman in the photo is nearly 1.80 meters tall, very cool. This is a Chinese-style show, and the supermodel's long hair is pinned up with a jade hairpin. This jade hairpin has appeared in many of her shows.

He remembered the supermodel's name was Fang Ruxue. She was one of the few supporting characters in "The Rich and Powerful" who had a relatively good ending and career. Her fate must be quite good...

In the Fantasy.

The cabinet closed, the sea water disappeared, and everything seemed like a dream.

There was dead silence.

Everyone's expression was blank.

The director was stunned for a moment, then said in a trembling voice, "You...I...he..."

"It's magic," Wen Xingze said decisively, even though he didn't know what he was talking about. "The sea inside is a simulated projection. Do you know what a simulated projection is? There's a passage behind this locker, so people can get out."

"You've all seen the Spring Festival Gala, right? That one is much more amazing than this."

At this time, everyone's materialistic worldview was under an extremely strong impact, and they were basically in a state of believing everything they were told.

Hearing Wen Xingze say this, everyone showed confused expressions.

They kind of wanted to believe Wen Xingze's words, but their remaining rationality was trying hard to stop them.

The props staff nearby had something to say, tremblingly saying, "But there's no projection equipment on the cruise ship, and there's no passageway..."

Wen Xingze was extremely confident and nodded: "Yes."

Props Team: “But…”

Wen Xingze's eyes were firm: "Yes."

Props Team: “But…”

The props team was stunned for a long while, and then the team leader suddenly perked up: "Yes! Yes! There is a projection device!!!"

The rest of the staff also began to lower their intelligence and hypnotize themselves:

"That's right, there are passages too, escape passages." "There is indeed a projection device. A worker came a few days ago, probably to install it." "The magic is amazing!"

Wen Xingze: “…” So this is possible?

As the staff members' explanations became more and more plausible, the guests and the director's attitudes gradually shifted from fear to disbelief: "So it's a magic trick, but can magic really be done?"

Wen Xingze: "Okay, I'll turn off the projection now. If you don't believe me, you can go open the cabinet and take a look." Only Wen Xingze himself can open the mustard seed space.

The atmosphere that had gradually relaxed suddenly became tense.

Everyone showed a look of horror again.

That's the deep sea, and that man with half his face covered by a veil, although he is very good-looking, his aura makes it clear that he is not someone to be trifled with, and he might get beaten up.

The director touched his rising hairline and said, "Haha, I don't dare."

The program crew and guests: "Haha, we wouldn't dare to do that either."

Wen Xingze: “…”

Zhu Bo couldn't bear to see Wen Xingze perform a one-man show. He took a deep breath and his legs became as soft as noodles, but he still tried to stand up and move step by step towards the locker.

Wen Xingze looked at him with emotion, but Zhu Bo got stuck halfway...stuck...

It's like playing a game when the network connection is very poor, the screen loads slowly, and Zhu Bo takes three steps back for every one he takes forward.

Wen Xingze: “…”

It was at this moment.

Pop.

The cabinet was opened by supermodel Fang Ruxue, who was wearing high-heeled boots, with trembling hands.

It was empty, there was no sea, no marine life, only the original props such as nunchakus, rattle, and hourglass.

"Huh," Zhu Bo and Fang Ruxue breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, hugging each other and crying, "Wow, so it really is a magic trick. I was so scared. I'll sleep with the basic principles of Marxism tonight."

Wen Xingze also breathed a sigh of relief: "Long live socialism."

Everyone's hearts finally relaxed at this moment. It turned out to be a magic trick!

The program crew and guests also hugged and cried:

"Long live socialism! Long live the materialist worldview!"

Many guests, staff, and even the director immediately looked at Wen Xingze differently and said sincerely:

"Aze, I only knew you had a pretty face before, but I didn't know you were so talented. At such a young age, you can not only play the suona, exorcise ghosts, and perform acrobatics, but you can also perform such advanced magic tricks."

Wen Xingze began modestly: "No, no."

The director quietly took off the Rolex watch on his wrist and whispered to Wen Xingze: "Can you make two copies of this watch? I'll give you half the money."

Wen Xingze: “…”

Wen Xingze: "You may have a slight misunderstanding of the concept of magic."

Because of his masterful magic trick during the talent show, Wen Xingze undoubtedly received nine votes, becoming the first place winner of the talent show and winning the mysterious sea view suite...

The journey was too tiring, and coupled with the huge shock they had just suffered, the guests and staff dispersed as soon as the rooms were allocated.

The filming is temporarily suspended and we will meet again after dinner.

Wen Xingze was also in a hurry to go back to his room to deal with personal matters. As soon as he walked into this legendary mysterious sea view room, he was shocked.

There is an aquarium at the bottom of the "Fantasy" cruise ship, which houses some fish, shells, etc. The crew can throw the fish in when they catch them, and then fish them out and eat them for dinner.

Of course, there are also ornamental fish, seaweed and corals.

This sea view room actually doesn't have a view of the sea, and it is right in the center of the aquarium. Three sides of it are made of transparent glass, and behind the glass are the clear blue sea and ornamental fish.

Wen Xingze was shocked when he walked in with his suitcase. Firstly, the design of this room was so strange that it was enough to drive someone with a fear of the deep sea to death. Secondly, it was because -

Behind the glass, there is a very long black sea snake.

Wen Xingze remembered it; it was Elder Cang's mount, named Dahei. Besides it, there were also dolphins, sperm whales, corals, lionfish, lantern fish, and clownfish.

The sea snake Dahei arched its round head in front of the glass and looked at the door pitifully. When Wen Xingze walked in, it shook its head excitedly.

Wen Xingze: "Hello, Dahei."

The black snake happily tied itself into a bow on the spot and rubbed its head against the glass: "Hiss!"

Dahei is a sea snake that looks a lot like a large dog, with a very canine personality and habits. When Wen Xingze first saw it in "Desolation", it was only as thick as his little finger. Back then, Dahei loved to pester Wen Xingze and ask him to play catch with him.

You and Cang sat on the sofa near the glass, holding teacups. They no longer maintained the form of mermaids, but turned into human forms, with only the ear fins remaining as some kind of racial characteristic.

"I don't drink instant coffee." Cang frowned as he looked at the plastic bag in Wen Xingze's hand.

Wen Xingze poured instant coffee into the cup, stirred it with two spoons, and handed a cup to You and Cang respectively: "Is hand-ground coffee okay?"

Cang: "Humph, barely."

Even so, Cang and You drank their coffee with great enthusiasm. Not only that, they even took the empty cans and plastic bags from Wen Xingze's hands and sealed them in a transparent box with gold edges.

Wen Xingze became curious: "What is this for?"

Cang: "Take it back and show it off to other mermaids, is there a problem?"

You added arrogantly, "Don't get me wrong. It's not because you bought the coffee that it's valuable. That's not the case."

Wen Xingze: "Okay, okay, I really understand."

Wen Xingze remembered that Cang and You were twins. Sitting together, they looked like they were looking in a mirror. However, there were slight differences: You had her hair loose and a shark veil covering her face, while Cang's hair was tied up high, and his pupils were a different shade of dark gold.

This scene was so fantastical yet so real that Wen Xingze sat down and drank coffee for several minutes before he suddenly woke up from the confusion:

"Cang and You, why are you here?"

"Because this is your mustard seed space." A door suddenly appeared on a piece of glass. Elder Li, in mermaid form, opened the door with an angry look on his face. After stepping in, his tail fin had transformed into legs. He was wearing the same outfit as Youcang. "Hey, Wang, where's my coffee?!"

Wen Xingze quickly poured him a glass as well.

It was through the elders' words that Wen Xingze learned that the mustard seed space was actually a very magical existence.

It is similar to a space transit station. It belongs neither to the universe where Wen Xingze is located nor to the universe where the Muse Empire is located. Since it is a transit station, of course creatures from various universes can exist in the mustard seed space - of course, they can only exist in the mustard seed space.

The mermaids' decision to mail the ocean is rather opportunistic, because the area of ​​the ocean exceeds the earth's carrying capacity, so it is automatically matched and placed in the mustard seed space.

With the ocean as a medium, the mermaids and marine creatures, like Wen Xingze, had the 'key' to open this mustard seed space. Of course, because the three elders had paid for priority, they arrived at the mustard seed space first.

"So, I can't go to Muse through the mustard seed space, and you can't come to Earth through the mustard seed space, but we can meet in space?"

Of course, inanimate objects can be carried freely, only living things are subject to this restriction. The same principle applies to Guangta Logistics' mailing of items in parallel universes.

"Limited to three hours a day," You nodded, glancing at the clock on the wall. "If your body leaves your original universe for more than three hours, you can't return... Well, today's time is almost up."

Wen Xingze: “?!”

"Then you guys go back quickly." Wen Xingze stood up anxiously.

Unexpectedly, this aroused the rebellious psychology of the elders. A strand of hair stood up on Li's red hair. They glared at him very unhappily: "Huh, you want to chase us away so much? No one is watching you learn to sing, so you are happy, right?"

Wen Xingze showed a confused and soft expression and said, "It will be the same if we talk about it tomorrow."

...Critical hit.

I don't know why.

'See you tomorrow' sounds infinitely more pleasant than 'goodbye'.

The three elders' fury immediately calmed down. If they hadn't turned into human forms, they would even want to wag their tails.

After a moment, Li suddenly reached out to cover his slightly red ear fins and angrily scolded: "Didn't I tell you not to act like a spoiled child?"

Wen Xingze: “???????”

"Because all the Sea God Pearls are in your hands, I'll give you something just in case."

Cang was the first to stand up.

The long ink-black hair broke free from the mermaid beads that bound it, and moved without wind. Huge waves surged in the deep sea outside a layer of glass, and gradually gathered into a dazzling light.

Buzz——

Wen Xingze seemed to hear the ringing of an old bronze bell. The deep sound waves spread like a tidal wave. It was a very spacious and inexplicably reassuring sound. Finally...

After the light converged, the huge black snake outside the glass disappeared, and instead, there was a short dagger in Wen Xingze's hand.

It is black in color, with dark waves-like patterns on the blade, and a silver shark bead tied to the end, its sharpness is hidden.

At the last second before the mustard seed space closed, Cang took a half step back and closed his golden pupils.

He bowed to Wen Xingze with an almost pious expression and said:

"My king, I give you one of the ancient weapons that are sacred to the mermaids. It is called—"

"Big Black."

“…”

Wen Xingze was first shocked by the movie-like scene before him.

The mustard seed space closed and disappeared, and he gradually came back to his senses, and then -

Wen Xingze looked at the dagger named "Dahei" in his hand: "?"

It turns out that Dahei is both Cang's mount and weapon. It's a bit unexpected.

But then again.

Such a good heirloom, what other names could it be given? Why call it Dahei?

The system prompt of "Cub Cultivation Plan" sounded:

"Ding! Congratulations, little one, for obtaining the [Dagger Big Black (Mermaid Tribe Sacred Artifact)]. Now that you have collected all four Sacred Artifacts, the Sacred Artifact Storage System is officially open! [Dragon Scale Chain], [Blood Tribe White Flame], and [Sea God Pearl] have been automatically stored in the storage room."

"Congratulations parents, the side quest has been successfully matched! The second side quest has been released~"

"The rewards for side quests are different from those for main quests. They are extremely generous and full of surprises. Come and complete them!"

Parents look at the screen:

【Side Quest】

Mission Description: A great idol should not only be famous in the entertainment industry, but also actively participate in all walks of life! Help Zizi become famous in the Chinese shaman circle and become the number one idol in the Feng Shui world!

Mission Progress: Become Famous in Feng Shui (0/1)

Mission Reward: Zizi's 12-hour space exchange trip (specific rules will be announced after the launch)

…

The release of the side quest was like dropping a bombshell in still waters.

[Orc language is so difficult: Holy shit, universe exchange travel, is it what I thought? ? ]

[Nameless Song: Ahh ...

[Elf Pointed Ears Super Hard to Buy Hat 11: It's over, our clan leader and priest have fainted]

[Strawberry Pudding: Although it's not explicitly stated, does this universe exchange trip mean that, Zizi, is... the king?]

[Marry His Majesty Squad: Wait until the cub comes and ask him and you’ll know, ahhhhhhhhhhhhh]

The launch of the side quest and the information revealed in it caused the Star Network to completely paralyze once again.

The scene was even more spectacular than when the closed beta test of "Baby Raising Plan" was launched. Even the technicians were in shock, so it took over an hour before anyone started repairs...

Universe exchange travel = parallel universe real existence = cub real existence?

Moreover, during these three months, the King of the Muse Empire had not woken up once - in fact, no one had ever seen His Majesty truly sleeping before. Once the door of the bedroom was closed, no one could prove whether His Majesty was truly sleeping.

Now it seems that he may not have narcolepsy at all, but because he... is actually living in another parallel universe!

By now, the Dragons, Bloods, and Mermaids knew about it, and others also had some suspicions. This was especially true of the Universal Alliance, which was constantly on guard against the two major forces of Muse and Utopia.

Because the Dragon Clan and the Blood Clan have been making too much noise these days. If it wasn't something related to the king, they wouldn't have made such a big fuss and wouldn't have lost their sense of proportion.

But the truth has not yet fully surfaced.

In any case, it was a sleepless night for everyone in the universe.

On the other side of the universe, the Utopian Empire.

This is a country with constant rain. Even now, it is raining. It has been who knows how long since the weather cleared up. After the rainy season, the snowy season will soon arrive. Compared with the perennially sunny Muse, it is the opposite of the other.

Because the influence of the "Cub Training Plan" is so great, even in the distant Utopia Empire, many citizens are discussing this matter.

In the capital's imperial palace, on the lone throne.

The monarch, his eyes covered with black silk, casually swiped his hand across the screen, shutting down the completely frozen system interface. His lips pursed tightly, his aura like frost and snow, as if he were lost in thought.

The Finance Minister, who was reporting to the king, thought he had angered the tyrannical tyrant. He shuddered, wiped the sweat from his face, and leaned forward to apologize: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

The monarch looked impatient and motioned him to leave.

It's obvious that he is taking his anger out on others.

The attendants hurriedly led the Chancellor away, and finally two waiters slowly closed the palace door.

The empty and deserted hall was completely silent.

After a long silence, the monarch turned off the single ceiling light. He held a silver ring, one of the rings from the wedding.

The other ring is probably still in the lost and found office on the capital planet of Muse, or in the locker of another confused king.

His thumb slowly rubbed across the ring, and the monarch finally calmed down and faced reality.

...The number of love rivals is increasing again.
