Foolish Game of the Gods

I have two principles as a human being:

1. Never lie.

2. Never believe anything anyone says, including myself.

“Sir, I must point out that your second principle contradicts the ...

Chapter 585: Make a Friend

"One of his [Time Notes] could have been used to [Reappear the Past] three times, but now there is only one left.

I think you understand the value of [Revisiting the Past]. "

I understand! I understand it so much!

Cheng Shi's eyes flashed, and he slowly withdrew his hand from Chenosley to show his friendliness. He nodded with satisfaction but quickly shook his head and said:

"This can only be regarded as Li Zhen's commission for hiring me. The next is your compensation, Dragon King Li Jingming."

"......" Li Jingming's eyelids jumped, and he felt a fire rising in his heart, "Cheng Shi, I have to tell you that sometimes memories don't have to be collected."

"Really?" Cheng Shi sneered and stretched out his hand again which he had just retracted.

Seeing this, Li Jingming gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, took a deep breath and said: "I thought we could be friends."

"Indeed, you can add a gift from a friend."

"......"

The fist hardened.

Li Jingming had never felt so powerless in a negotiation. The person opposite him was unmoved by any soft or hard words. Most importantly, he was obviously so interested in the [Iron Law of Order] that he even returned from the void to the Howling Iron Prison, but he just refused to cherish his time and was meaninglessly confronting him here just for a tiny bit of profit.

What is he doing?

Whose will is he carrying out?

Is this the way to go on the road of destiny?

Why does it feel like this is a path of fraud? He is not asking for compensation, isn't he just trying to have fun?

Li Jingming was in a trance. At this moment, the images of the two "Him" in the "nothingness" seemed to overlap slightly in his mind.

Is this the true path of destiny? Otherwise, why would he be summoned by destiny?

But if what Cheng Shi did was true, then why could the blind man become number one on the [Destiny] list?

Just as Li Jingming was frowning in thought, Cheng Shi coughed twice considerately.

"Ahem, pay attention to the time, the get out of class is almost over."

“…” The get out of class is almost over.

Li Jingming suddenly opened his eyes, gritted his teeth and took out two more things from his personal space.

A faint silk thread and an exquisite wooden hammer that is two fingers long and one finger wide.

"[Memory]'s 'Reflection of the Past' and 'Remembering the Sea', one can leave you with a shadow of the past, and the other can give you historical revelations about your current time and space.

Two S-level items, plus an SS [Past Reappearance], should that be enough to offset the commission, compensation, and consolation money? "

Cheng Shi looked at the three advanced [Memory] props in Li Jingming's hands with fiery eyes and took a breath.

hiss--

What a tycoon's behavior!

No wonder he can always exchange memories with others. If the Dragon King is always so generous, who wouldn’t like to exchange memories with him!

Since ancient times, dragons have loved jewelry. This time, they might have encountered a real dragon king.

Cheng Shi tried his best to conceal the surprise and satisfaction in his eyes and nodded calmly. When people saw that gesture, they would think that he was magnanimously forgiving others.

But then...

"Ahem, and don't forget the three A-level legal documents as well as Li Zhen's life-saving ransom."

"......"

“…Okay, okay!”

Li Jingming didn't even know what tone these words "OK" were squeezed out of his throat. He handed over the things in his hands one by one with a sullen face. Cheng Shi, on the other hand, put all the compensation he deserved into his personal space with a grin.

Wow, today is another fruitful day!

When the "fair" transaction was over, the weaver of destiny, who was overjoyed, raised his head with a smile and said:

"Um...Dragon King, are we still friends?"

"?"

The sound of clenched fists could be heard again in the dungeon.
