IMPORTANT

World law - a "non-living" being that is related to nature, science. Imagine being moved to another planet with its set rules. Do you know when MCs are struck by lightning during their cultivation? It's something like Heavenly Dao, which is never fully explained. It's different from Gods that could turn bad and go rampant. It functions in a mystical inhuman way, like nature and its physics.)

Double update, yay!🤗

Current time.

If the HQ planned to use Bing Shi only inside of one universe, they wouldn't mind if she became a female lead or not, they would still receive EP due to the worlds being a part of one universe, which had its own set of souls and rules.

However, they were sending her to different universes. The world law bond was incredibly fragile. Once broken, it couldn't be reversed back.

Mao An would lose her bond with the world law forever if Bing Shi took over the female lead role. Before it could happen on the male lead's side, they summoned Xuan Mu back.

It usually took the world a lifetime to decide on new leads. The HQ didn't know the pattern, but the world would always be able to find new leads.

The biggest problem was... the world law would set its standards higher. Only those on the same pair or above the previous leads would be able to create a world law bond.

Above the soulmate bond, was the world law bond. The world law — a spiritual energy that came from the core of a planet, would bond with one pair of souls, giving HQ the highest source of soul energy.

In Xuan Mu's case...

This man...

As soon as his soul broke, the world law cut its bond with him. This ex-male lead's actions in his first lifetime caused his world to not have a single male lead afterward!

They couldn't let it happen again!

The reason why Xuan Mu was summoned so suddenly, was because of this.

Because the HQ couldn't see the situation in that world, they inserted a command into Kuro.

Whenever a certain situation occurred, it would activate and notify Xuan Mu. When they saw what that pair caused in a span of a few years through Kuro, they feared one thing: The world law choosing a new male lead, Xuan Mu.

Once Kuro had finished speaking, the connection with Bing Shi abruptly severed.

Confused, Kuro flew around the empty space, looking for its host that just disappeared before its eyes.

A few moments later....

The chief asked, "Is she alright?" while looking at the report. He gasped in surprise when he saw the high amount of healed souls, including Cheng Young and Mao An.

Seatbacks and challenges were often necessary for a soul to grow. The leads in that world were proof that love wasn't a solution to everything; sometimes, it would create more problems than it could solve.

Bing Shi had failed a mission where Zhao Rong fell in love with her, but they couldn't find any irregularities in him. On the contrary, his soul seemed more stable. A few more reincarnations and he would fully recover.

"Her condition stabilized," the assistant answered. Bing Shi's soul had suddenly evolved, causing her soul to cut every connection with Kuro.

"Upgrade Kuro to accommodate her current soul," The chief ordered.

Thanks to the two last missions, Bing Shi's presence had grown in intensity tremendously. It would be impossible for her to go out unnoticed without catching the world's attention.

She didn't know how to hide it completely. If this continued, it would stand in the way of her upcoming missions. She'd have to learn how to control her presence and aura better.

But how? She wasn't suited to train in the training hall. They couldn't inject this knowledge into her soul like some other hosts either.

While Kuro was being upgraded, the HQ decided to nurture this newly evolved, rare soul. They would give Bing Shi a well-deserved vacation with a little mission to help her train her presence. She had accomplished the unthinkable, so this little mission should be a walk in the park for her, right? They thought...

"Chief, which world should we send her to?" the assistant asked.

Anything but cultivation worlds with deities and gods, thought the chief.

Which world would that girl appreciate the most? The chief decided, "The one most similar to her original world. Warn her about other hosts residing in that world without revealing their identities. Also..."

The chief rubbed his long white beard. Xuan Mu wouldn't make a good chief like him, who was obsessed with a soul's growth. "Hm... Bing Shi, that girl would be a great chief."

The assistant stopped his superior, "The Proxy wouldn't let us go if he knew we overworked his wife to death."

"No... How many times do I have to remind you... It's his wife who wouldn't let us go," the chief answered.

Why was everyone warier of Xuan Mu than Bing Shi? That girl made one loss after another. She risked the success of her future missions just to acquire a connection with the HQ.

She wasn't blinded by that one wish. Unable to depend on it, she searched for other routes to acquire what she wanted. The cherry on the top, she killed a veteran Host with her bare hands! She was breaking the rules, and nobody cared!

How?!

Because they allowed her to!

Why?!

Because the investment was worth a try!

Levitating in the middle of a never-ending, star-filled space, where time didn't flow, Xuan Mu, in his astral form, unfolded his right hand. A lustrous screen materialized above his palm, unfolding a scene on the other side.

This universe had its own heaven and hell. Gods, and Goddesses. The god's souls he was about to shatter belonged to a category 'rare'. Thirty thousand years after, and they still didn't evolve... They needed a little push, and he was here to do that push... By playing the bad guy.

Xuan Mu raised his right arm above his head, closing his eyes, he created an imaginary reality, a decoy — a new System Headquarters. Around him, a great hall appeared. Humanoid robots, one after another, scattered to their assigned posts.

When all was done and ready, Xuan Mu opened his eyes and disappeared on the spot. Reappearing above heaven's main palace, he flicked his fingers, and a little black hole materialized.

Growing in size, it devoured the first God. Repeating the process on the hell's side, his black hole devoured the second God.

Staring at the small fragments that remained of the first God's soul, Xuan Mu kept one and sent the rest to various worlds in this universe.

"How was it?" Xuan Mu gazed down at his arm, where the intricate tattoo was. As he watched, the lines and curves of the design began to shift and change, coalescing into the form of a massive icosahedron.

Its many faces glowed with an otherworldly light as it moved through the universe with Xuan Mu, floating effortlessly through the void of space.

Looking at the time, Xuan Mu compared it to the time in Bing Shi's next world. Two weeks should have passed there.

The icosahedron observed his actions carefully, analyzing the energy and power that Xuan Mu was unleashing with its help. It hummed softly to itself as it assisted him with changing the universe's energy balance, ensuring that everything remained stable and in harmony.

Xuan Mu was completely new to this, so he needed someone to show him how it should be done. He could feel the icosahedron's knowledge and experience flowing through him, guiding his every move and amplifying his strength.

The massive icosahedron covered in bright red runes answered back. "Next time, put the blame on someone else, not the HQ."'

It spoke to him in a language that was beyond human understanding. Its voice was like the sound of a thousand chimes, and it seemed to echo through the void of space.

"Those two were bored to death. They need a last BOSS to defeat." Xuan Mu gave one of the god fragments to 'System #92645' which was now connected to the newly estabilished system HQ.
