Side Story 3

"What do you mean? Am I also a false existence?"

The short-haired youth stared blankly at E, a great fear inexplicably surging in his heart, as if it were about to drag him into the abyss!

"I'm just guessing. I don't know the specific truth, and you shouldn't expect to get an answer from me."

E chuckled, walked to Mei Xin, who had already turned into mud, and a rune appeared in his palm.

Soon, a black bead flew out of the pile of mud and was absorbed by E into the rune.

The moment the black bead was absorbed into the rune, the short-haired youth vaguely heard Mei Xin's screams and curses.

After E finished dealing with Mei Xin, he said to the short-haired youth, "After dealing with this Heavenly Dao Emissary, the remnants of the alien god left on Earth have also been almost cleared. The rest are just minor characters, so you don't need to worry about them. Go back and write your books properly."

"After all, the stability of the fantasy world is closely related to you. If you go on strike, it will be difficult for us."

The short-haired youth pursed his lips, then said to E, "What are your plans next? Can you take me with you?"

The short-haired youth was not foolish. After Ye Ling and Shan E became real and treated the alien god and its subordinates like pigs to be slaughtered, he knew that Ye Ling and the other two were the strongest three in the world.

As long as he clung to their legs, even a little residue that dripped from their mouths would be enough to make him overeat.

With ready-made legs to cling to, why bother writing books?

E was not surprised by the short-haired youth's request and asked him, "Do you really want to work with us? Are you serious?"

Hearing E's question, the short-haired youth, who had intended to cling to their legs, became a little timid and asked E, "Are you... going to do something dangerous next?"

E smiled and said, "Something like that... If you join us, I guarantee you won't be the first cannon fodder."

"This..." The short-haired youth's face instantly turned pale, and he didn't know how to respond for a moment.

At this moment, Shan said, "Alright E, stop teasing him. Look how scared the kid is. Ye Ling... you explain. He can influence the development of the fantasy world. With his help, our next actions will be much easier."

"Understood."

Ye Ling nodded, then asked the short-haired youth, "Do you know how the alien god replaced the Heavenly Dao?"

The short-haired youth: "Uh... Before the Heavenly Dao contacted me, it said that the alien god descended from outside the heavens, directly annihilated the gods of Earth with its powerful strength, replaced the Heavenly Dao, and established a new divine system in this world."

Ye Ling: "Since you also know that the alien god descended from outside the heavens, you should also know that outside of Earth, in the vast universe... there are definitely more than one existence like the alien god that can replace the Heavenly Dao."

"Even if we deal with the alien god that descended to Earth now, it doesn't mean Earth is completely safe, nor does it mean that other alien gods will not descend in the future."

Hearing Ye Ling's words, the short-haired youth exclaimed, "Are you already preparing to prevent other alien gods from descending?"

Ye Ling smiled and shook his head, "Young man, broaden your horizons. Is it something that Shan E would do to resist the invasion of alien gods?"

The short-haired youth was stunned, then realized something and looked at Ye Ling with disbelief, trembling, "Could it be... you want to take the initiative to hunt alien gods?"

Ye Ling continued, "Whether in reality or in the fantasy world, the law of the jungle is always the unchanging truth. If you don't want to be prey, you can only become a hunter."

"From the Heavenly Dao, we have captured the location coordinates before the alien god descended. We can go there at any time."

The short-haired youth: "But can this really be done? Even if you kill the alien god now, it doesn't mean you are invincible. Rushing into the unknown territory where the alien god is located is likely a near-death experience!"

Ye Ling gave the short-haired youth a sideways glance, "Who said we're going now? With E and Shan's personalities, they won't act rashly until they've armed themselves to the teeth."

The short-haired youth asked Ye Ling again, "Then how do we know when we are armed to the teeth?"

Ye Ling spread his hands, "I don't know that. I'm just a hired hand now. The thinking is left to E, and the action is left to Shan."

The short-haired youth: "Then what are you doing?"

Ye Ling: "Aren't I explaining the situation to you now? So... are you interested in joining us? As long as you create more characters in the fantasy world, our chances of winning will increase."

The short-haired youth rolled his eyes, "So you're just HR now? I say, you're the protagonist of the Void, can you have some ambition?"

Ye Ling: "Then why don't you take a look at what you're doing now?"

The short-haired youth: "..."

While Ye Ling and the short-haired youth were chatting, the bead that E had taken from Mei Xin suddenly vibrated, and then Shan and E exchanged a look without a trace.

Afterward, Shan said to Ye Ling, "Ye Ling, leave the matters here to you. Remember to go back to the Primal Chaos to have a look when you have time."

"Yes, Master."

Ye Ling bowed slightly to Shan E, "Leave this place to me."

"Mm."

Shan nodded slightly, then disappeared from the spot with E.

Seeing Shan E leave, the short-haired youth couldn't help but ask Ye Ling, "What did they go to do?"

Ye Ling: "Don't say I don't know. Even if they really told me, would what I know be their true purpose? You've been with Shan E for so long, I thought you wouldn't ask such a question."

The short-haired youth smiled awkwardly, then asked Ye Ling, "Then Ye Ling, what should we do now?"

Ye Ling looked at the short-haired youth and said, "You should go back and update."
