There is One New Rule Every Month Globally

"What's it like after advancing to Tenfold Planet? Is it difficult to advance?"

"It's the end, the last stop, the final battle against the Gods and Demons. The difficulty of advancement is not great." Little Miao shook her head as she spoke: "Actually, you've all been deceived. There is almost no difficulty in advancing from Ninefold Planet to Tenfold Planet. That's why Mo Clan could become the first to advance to Tenfold Planet."

"It's because the other Ninefold Planets didn't dare to advance, as everyone knew that once you advanced, you would have to face a fierce final battle once you left."

"No one dared to go out."

"Mo Clan dared."

"So, Mo Clan became a player who advanced to Tenfold Planet."

Little Miao quietly spoke of the secrets unknown to the rookie players, and even Wen Ping definitely didn't know. Chen Yi, who controlled Little Miao's actions, only licked the corner of her mouth with a wistful expression on her face.

All this stuff, really was quite bluffing.

If Santa Claus hadn't told him these things, he would have been unaware too. Seeing the shocked expression on Wen Ping's face at this moment, he knew that Wen Ping didn't know either.

Hey.

Go figure it out.

...

"So that's how it is, that's how it is!!!"

Wen Ping incredulously lit a cigarette and brought it to his mouth, muttering to himself in sudden realization: "So that's the way it is."

After Jiang Chenglu was killed by Chen Yi, Jiang Chenglu's Ninefold Planet Mo Clan advanced.

At the time, he was puzzled. If he were the ruler of another Ninefold Planet, he would undoubtedly pay any price to capture Chen Yi and then force out what happened between Jiang Chenglu and Chen Yi before the advancement.

To find the path to advance to Tenfold Planet.

But the other Ninefold Planets didn't do so. They just sent a few weaklings and then made no further moves. At that time, he wondered if it might be because the ascending game imposed too many restrictions on the Ninefold Planets.

Now it seemed that these Ninefold Planets had long known the way to advance to Tenfold Planet but were unwilling to go to the final battle, hence they delayed doing the task of advancing to Tenfold Planet.

"Then... did Jiang Chenglu win in the end?"

"I don't know."

Little Miao shook her head: "When I was resurrected, Mo Clan had been fighting for two years, with over eighty percent of the players dead. Only Emperor Jiang with some of the elite were still fighting. At that time, they hadn't lost, but the tide of defeat was already very clear."

"If nothing unexpected happened afterward, they probably lost."

"I just didn't see that scene."

"Did... Jiang Chenglu mention Chen Yi beforehand?"

"It seems he mentioned once." Little Miao tilted her head and pondered for a long time before speaking, "It seems that Emperor Jiang sighed shortly after he advanced, saying that this little guy's fate wasn't tough enough, just died like that."

"I have quite a profound impression of Chen Yi because before I was resurrected, Emperor Jiang had once died at the hands of Chen Yi before his advancement. I don't know the specific reasons, just know that after the advancement, Jiang Huang paid attention to Chen Yi's recent movements twice, the last time was when Chen Yi died."

"So when I realized that I was resurrected on Blue Star, I was so excited. With my talent for foresight, I could completely snatch all the opportunities that belonged to Chen Yi in my previous life and make myself into the likes of a hero like Chen Yi."

"It's just... it was I who got it first."

"Yet Chen Yi still insisted on robbing it forcibly, without any reason, leading me to end up in such a plight."

"Huff..."

Wen Ping slowly took a deep breath, calming the shock in his heart, and was about to say something when he suddenly realized: "Wait a minute, Little Miao, weren't you explaining about that photo album?"

"Being reborn for half a day, what does that have to do with the photo album?"

"Oh, it's like this."

Little Miao started speaking somewhat tipsily, "I said I was a vagrant when I was reborn, right? At that time, this bestie of mine was a freelancer, which means she was an escort, but not like those working in clubs."

"This bestie of mine took orders by herself and went out to meet clients on her own, no pimp involved, so she didn't have to share her profits."

"She rented a separate room just for me."

"Since she often had clients coming to her place, it wasn't convenient for us to live together, so she rented a room opposite hers for me to stay in. She needed to show her clients the portfolio often, but she wasn't very photogenic."

"So she took all her photos and photoshopped my face onto them, so that clients would be satisfied when they booked on the app, and even if they found out things didn't match up in person, most wouldn't opt for a change."

"It's all about being tactful."

"There's a famous saying on Blue Star, 'Since you're already here.'

"So..."

Wen Ping murmured in confusion, "So the person in that album, it's actually not you? It's your bestie? Only with your face photoshopped onto it?"

"That's right."

"Your bestie used your face to take orders? And then used her own body to fulfill them?"

"That's the logic."

"..."

"..."

After falling silent again, Wen Ping took a long time before he lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and asked hoarsely, "Let me get this straight. So, have you had a history of living together, or maybe some sort of perverted ex-boyfriend?"

"No."

Little Miao slowly hung her head and said softly, "In my past and present life, I've never been in a relationship. I don't know how to love someone, nor how to reciprocate someone's affection."

"But after meeting you, I think that might change in this lifetime."

"Huh."

Wen Ping massaged his temples with a slight headache, "Well, that's good news, I suppose."

"And about this rebirth... did Jiang Chenglu tell you how Chen Yi died?"

"He didn't mention that, and I didn't ask. It just came up once when Emperor Jiang was talking to himself. It seemed like he was killed by a player."

"You might not believe this, but..."

Little Miao poured herself another glass of wine, "During the days Chen Yi was hunting me, I was always fantasizing that the player who killed Chen Yi would come to fetch me on a cloud of seven colors under the setting sun, to rescue me from the sea of suffering."

"Yet, he never came."

"And I've been waiting all along."

"I'm sorry, talking about this might make you uncomfortable, after all, Chen Yi is seen as the most admirable figure by players on Blue Star, but..." Little Miao hesitated for a long time before trying to broach the subject, "But it seems like you don't really respect Chen Yi either?"

"..."

Wen Ping paused for quite some time before he picked up a glass of alcohol, finished it in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and stared at Little Miao with a serious and earnest expression.

"At this point, I won't hide it anymore."
