Yes, Cheng Shi has arrived.
The timing was perfect.
[Time] After bringing the instigator of this farce to the end, he left without saying a word, leaving Cheng Shi alone standing under the starry sky, to be scrutinized by the gods.
But he remained completely calm, devoid of his former fear. Instead, he bowed slightly to the assembled gods and smiled, saying:
"As expected, only the ascension of a new god can bring all the true gods together. Thank you all for coming to witness the ceremony. If there's nothing else, you may leave."
We'll have many more opportunities to meet in the future, so I hope you won't find me annoying.
The gods were all astonished. They couldn't be mistaken; the player before them was indeed Cheng Shi. But the player who had just received the baptism of light was also Cheng Shi. Why was it...?
Just as the gods were wondering, Cheng Shi, or rather the new Chaos, in the [Memory] archive, suddenly chuckled, shed his disguise, and revealed his long, black hair and a highly recognizable magic suit.
She had intended to bow to the gods present, just like Cheng Shi, but when she thought about her current status, she changed her mind and nodded slightly.
She chuckled softly:
"If you enjoy watching performances, you are welcome to visit my temple often."
I welcome all visitors, especially those who wish to discuss the "Origin" with me.
With just one sentence, the silence that had been broken was broken once again.
The gods were shocked, only then realizing that the person who had just inherited the throne and authority of [Chaos] was actually... another believer of [Deception]?
How could they not have realized that they had been deceived by a mortal?
No!
The one who deceived them must be no ordinary person; He has made his move!
"Zhen Xin!?"
Li Wufang was dumbfounded when he saw this scene. He couldn't understand why his boss had suddenly become that controversial "deceptive" chosen one.
In that instant, all the memories of today flooded into his mind. He frantically searched through them, but he couldn't find any trace of the two of them exchanging information!
How did you do that?
Zhen Xin caught a glimpse of the shock on Li Wufang's face out of the corner of her eye, and winked at him slightly, saying:
"secret.
The most appealing aspect of stand-in magic is the unpredictability of the techniques. If I reveal the secrets to you, wouldn't that take away the fun?
"......?"
Who exactly lost the fun?
Li Wufang's eyelids twitched slightly, and his eyes still held shock. At this moment, he seemed to remember something and turned to look at Li Jingming, only to find that Li Jingming looked like he knew everything and was not surprised at all.
His eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed in realization, "You knew all along, so you were laughing?"
Li Jingming smiled and nodded. He did know everything; the plan had been known to him since the time he read Cheng Shi's memories.
No, it should be said that the plan was never intended to be kept from him. It was just that the subsequent turn to the [Memory] Museum was unexpected. Fortunately, the result was good, and Li Jingming completed the task assigned to him by Cheng Shi perfectly.
That's right, the Dragon King is also part of the plan!
He had seen the real Cheng Shi, right in front of everyone, right under the noses of the "Iron Laws of Order" at that time.
However, the Cheng Shi he saw was not the Cheng Shi of that time, but the Cheng Shi of the past. The place where he saw Cheng Shi was not in the void, but in... Zhen Xin's memory!
Because all of this was a scheme orchestrated by Cheng Shi himself!
To explain all this, we need to go back to when Cheng Shi failed in his first audience with the "Iron Laws of Order".
At that time, Cheng Shi had already thought of a way to have Li Wufang request an audience with the "Iron Law of Order" and then use dice to smuggle him into the audience, but he thought a little more ahead of himself.
The Joker did indeed set his sights on the throne of "Order," but he had to face a risk: the "Iron Laws of Order" were inherently "Chaos."
If everything goes as best expected, and the friendly Chaos returns to the throne, or the Order takes its place and destroys itself, then Cheng Shi will naturally have no more obstacles on his path to seizing the throne. He might even become an ally of Chaos and gain another helper.
But what if the chaos is unfriendly?
Back then, no one knew the inside story of the plan by [Fraud] and [Chaos] to replace [Order]. Who can confirm what methods God of Music used to fool [Chaos]?
Cheng Shi's current situation doesn't allow him to be careless in the slightest. He must be extremely cautious. So, if the "chaos" was actually caused by Le Zishen's trickery, and he regains his true form, he might develop hostility towards Le Zishen...
No, there's not even a need to think that way. Just because He is "chaos," a god whose thoughts are so disordered that they are impossible to fathom, Cheng Shi must plan ahead and take precautions against any possible accidents.
Preserving one's established identity from being tainted is the top priority of this contingency plan!
So, before he was to meet the emperor, he went to find another person, who became his first helper: Zhen Xin!
Cheng Shi met Zhen Xin at the museum and revealed all his plans. He said that based on his understanding of the rigid nature of the "Order" faction, the "Iron Laws of Order" would only have two outcomes after being questioned and leading to a confrontation with "Justice (Order)":
Either they fail to recognize their own limitations, are unable to give an explanation to the global order, and die for their own sins;
Either recognize that you are chaos, abandon order, and return to chaos.
The former is not in danger; at most, it needs a deity to protect it when it perishes. The latter, however, faces far more trouble.
Cheng Shi feared that the previous cooperation was a scheme by Le Zishen, and even more so that [Chaos] would "prove its will by dying" in order to expand the chaos of the world.
