Weird Rules Rumor: At The Beginning, He Insisted That He Was Not Dead

【The white horse and the prince exchanged smiles~】

【I see, so the white horse and the prince are two different entities!】

【Guys, step aside, I like something unusual!】

【Low emotional intelligence: I’m a pervert. High emotional intelligence: I like something unusual (lol)】

“Rrrr!”

The human-horse creature let out a terrifying roar upon spotting Jian Ran and Bai Lian.

Its hands gripped a long sword tightly, and with a powerful stride, it charged toward them!

As the sword slashed through the air, the crimson mist twisted, and the wind’s howling turned into a deadly melody.

“Do we have a chance?”

“Of course!”

Bai Lian nodded.

Yet, he didn’t use Vanishing.

He was far too intrigued by the creature’s sword—it emitted a faint glow, a clear sign it wasn’t just any weapon.

Leaving it behind without examining it would be a crime.

With that thought, Bai Lian reached out his hand.

“Hand it over!”

Skill activated!

In an instant, the silver armor adorning the humanoid creature vanished and appeared in Bai Lian’s hands!

Staring at the silver armor now resting in his grip and then at the “cool” human-horse creature…

Bai Lian: (≖_≖ )

Jian Ran: (o'ω'o)?

Live chat: Σ(ŎдŎ|||)ﾉ

Something seemed off.

“What did you just take?” Jian Ran widened her eyes, staring at Bai Lian.

Bai Lian twitched his lips and quickly tossed the silver armor aside. “Uhh… looks like I grabbed the wrong thing.”

“No worries, let’s try again!”

Meanwhile, in the real world, Mi Gao was livestreaming and commenting on the scene.

“Guys, watch this Bai Shen operation! I guarantee this monster won’t last a second—do you believe me?”

“From my years of watching streams, I’d say this monster is pretty powerful. Normally, even players who have undergone reincarnation wouldn’t be able to handle it, but for Bai Shen—it’s just a junior brother!”

Mi Gao, his face filled with excitement, passionately narrated the events unfolding on the screen. His enthusiasm was through the roof!

Ever since witnessing the events in Mirror Castle, he had become Bai Shen’s most devoted fan!

Only those who had truly witnessed miracles could understand the power of the one who created them!

Mi Gao had personally seen Bai Shen perform completely unbelievable feats ever since the New Year’s dungeon!

One thing became clear to him: Bai Shen was nothing like any other player he had ever encountered.

Other players struggled to survive in the Mysterious World, but for Bai Shen, it was like a vacation!

“The monster is attacking! Let’s guess—will Bai Shen use his beam ability, or does he have something else up his sleeve?”

“He raised his hand—what’s he about to do? Does he have another skill?”

“Oh, he really took the monster’s armor? Van Defa?!!”

“Wait… Armor??”

Mi Gao, who had been commenting with excitement, suddenly realized something was wrong.

Armor?

The monster had lost its armor—could it be…

At that moment, the camera zoomed in on the now armorless monster, and all the viewers watching the stream widened their eyes!

Mi Gao’s face instantly paled.

His years as a streamer had trained him well—he immediately realized that something was seriously wrong.

This was definitely very, very wrong!

He quickly moved his mouse, trying to shut down the stream.

But before he could do anything, a red popup appeared on the screen.

【Inappropriate content detected in your stream. Penalty issued. Broadcast banned for 24 hours!】

The stream was banned!!

Mi Gao: ???

“Wait, it wasn’t me! Bai Shen did it all!”

Mi Gao stared at the blocked stream, utterly devastated!

“I was just sitting at home, and suddenly a problem from a dungeon hit me!”

Clearly, Bai Lian was the one who caused all this chaos—so why was his stream the one getting banned?!

How did this even affect real life?!

Meanwhile, in Bai Lian’s stream chat:

【Hahahaha, I’m dying! Mi Gao’s stream just got banned!】

【I just came from his stream—it’s true, they really banned it.】

【Mi Gao is absolutely speechless. Does Bai Shen not even spare his own fans?】

【Incredible! Bai Shen’s abilities are so powerful they can even affect reality!】

【Bai Shen really knows how to entertain his fans—I’m staying here forever!】

【I just went to the bathroom—did I miss something epic?!】

Bai Lian had no idea…

That his ability had silenced two entire worlds.

And Jian Ran was silent too.

“Hand it over!” Bai Lian activated his skill again.

Luckily, this time he didn’t mess up, and the magnificent long sword landed in his hands.

His actions instantly enraged the creature.

It swung its four arms, charging at Bai Lian in a fit of fury!

Bai Lian, completely ignoring it, didn’t even glance at the monster—his attention was solely on the sword.

Above his head, his Dead Eye materialized, instantly firing three Annihilation shots!

“Shh—shh—shh!”

Three shots. Not too many, not too few—just enough to show respect!

The monster was struck and, in the blink of an eye, crumbled into dust.

Jian Ran, watching all of this, widened her eyes.

…Could it really be this easy?

That was the strongest entity in the company!

It seemed she had severely underestimated Bai Lian’s strength—this guy was far more terrifying than she had imagined!

Jian Ran shuddered slightly.

Did this mean… if she stayed with him, she really would be stuck working for him her entire life?

Meanwhile, Bai Lian was examining the sword in his hands.

It was incredibly long—if stood upright, it was about the same height as Jian Ran.

The blade was entirely silver, covered in intricate engravings, with two deep grooves running along its center—blood channels.

Faint glimmers of light flickered across its surface, and Bai Lian could feel an icy aura emanating from it.

This was no ordinary sword.

Suddenly, Bai Lian recalled how, in The Fifth Estate, Winnie’s pen could transform into a weapon—and that book.

Both of those had been artifacts.

Could this sword be one too?

But was it comparable to Winnie’s two artifacts?

“This is an incredible artifact that can perfectly unleash the power of anomalies,” Jian Ran murmured, staring at the long sword in Bai Lian’s hands.

Bai Lian glanced at her and curiously asked, “Are there different levels of artifacts?”

“You don’t know?” Jian Ran raised an eyebrow in surprise.

She couldn’t quite understand why Bai Lian—someone this powerful—was asking about something so basic.

“I’m a newbie, isn’t it normal not to know?” Bai Lian replied, his expression as if stating the obvious.

Newbie…

For some reason, those words started to sound increasingly pretentious.

Jian Ran let out a deep sigh and explained:

“Of course, artifacts have different levels. The lowest rank is B-tier, while the highest I’ve heard of is SSS-tier.”

“The sword you’re holding is at least an A-tier artifact. If it were sold, its price would be astronomical!”
