The small world shook continuously for a few days.

When it stopped, Sui Xiong looked towards the small world and saw that there was no sky or land, no air or water, but a chaotic situation. He couldn’t make out left, right, south, east, north, west. He couldn’t find anything besides chaos.

“What the heck! I went overboard!”

He sighed and thought he was living a tough life. After spending a few years’ time, going through so much trouble, fighting countless battles, expending sweat and blood, killing uncountable brain cells, he finally dragged the small world from the middle to the surface of the Abyss. In the end, he accidentally ruined the spoils of war that he fought for with his hard work...

“Such itchy hands! Itchy hands!” He then slapped his tentacles angrily as though he were crazy.

“What are you doing?” The God of Justice couldn’t bear to see him acting like that. He stopped him. “Why are you hitting yourself out of nowhere?”

Sui Xiong showed Him a face of distress, and showed Him the situation of the small world.

The God of Justice was first stunned, then surprised. He creased his eyebrows and looked into it carefully. His eyebrows slowly eased.

“No wonder that old man didn’t even give me any opportunity to explain. I was wondering if he gave you too much... It seems that He even put your character into consideration!”

“What?”

The God of Justice smiled. “The sealed small worlds that I have given to you were actually not gathered by me, but by the old man on the Wheel of Order. From how it looks now, He might have thought that you’d want to save some trouble and blend all the small worlds together.”

Sui Xiong looked lost. He didn’t understand how it related to the fact that his small worlds had turned into a chaotic mess.

“From the look of it, your world seems to be ruined. But in fact, it is the total opposite. It is the most perfect state of a small world,” the God of Justice said. “Did you notice that it doesn’t weigh anything now, and the attraction of the Abyss towards it has vanished completely?”

Sui Xiong tugged it for a bit, and sure enough, the small world didn’t weigh anything. He could drag it around without any effort. Taking a closer look, he had already left the Abyss with his small world.

“Hey. Why would it be like this?” He asked curiously.

“Not only that!” the God of Justice smiled, “but you made a great profit! Everything in the small world reversed to its original chaos, which means that it possesses boundless possibility. You relied on your power to reopen it, and experienced opening a world personally. It is definitely beneficial to grasp the subtlety of nature’s power. And as they say, a piece of white paper is better for writing. Whatever you want the world to be, you can build. Is there any other world that is more suitable to make into a holy kingdom?”

Sui Xiong then finally realized what he was saying, and nodded continuously.

“I’ll drag this world back first. Where would be a good place to hide it?”

“You plan to hide this in the main dimension? That’s not right. That’s not right! What if there’s a problem?” the God of Justice asked. “Such matters like opening up a new world, I have never heard of. Maybe the old man knew, but He never brought it up with anyone. No one knows what will happen when a small world is opened up. So, I suggest you hide it in one of the unnoticeable spots in the material realm. Or just put it haughtily next to the emptiness in the main dimension, and I’ll look after it for you. All in all don’t leave it in the main dimension to avoid accidents.”

“I’ll have to trouble you again. How can I have the cheek to...” Sui Xiong smiled bitterly. “Previously, I asked you to help look after my place for a while, and it turned out to be a few years...”

“Things like time; are they meaningful for us?” the God of Justice asked in return.

Sui Xiong was stunned, and suddenly lost his smile.

Exactly; things like time, towards commoners who had limited age, were precious. But to immortals, time was considered nothing.

Back when he was in university, during ancient culture connoisseurship class, there was a lecturer who was indulged in Tao culture. He always wore a Taoist robe and his hair in a bun, and called himself “Dao Quan Zi.” He always sat alone in the corner while reading, and he wouldn’t respond to much. He only shook his head and recited Chuang Tzu, something about a 500 year old God Turtle that was legendary, an 8,000 year old tree that was legendary... Back then, he thought the lecturer pretended to be artistic and must have been a flirting expert. He probably had unknown numbers of sisters in his WeChat. Every girl wanted to ask him about ways to get a boyfriend. Then, he thought about him now and realized that the lecturer obviously wanted to be a celestial being...

Who would have expected it? He never thought promoting into a Celestial being would... oh wait; it’s promoting to God. Anyway, it’s immortality. It’s about the same. It’s just that he did not know what happened to the lecturer later on. He didn’t know if he really found a chance to turn into celestial being.

Most likely no, he guessed. Earth was so huge, but he never heard of anyone turning into celestial beings or Gods. Even among traversers, he seemed to be alone...

He couldn’t bear to look back to the past!

The huge jellyfish laughed. Then, he dragged the world that looked huge but was light, as though it were treading in the air, and whizzed past in the emptiness.

Countless Gods, and existences whose powers could be on par with Gods, noticed the sight. But they also noticed that beside the jellyfish, there was a bulky beggar-like man that was flashing along on a wooden axe. Hence, those who originally wanted to block his way and rob him changed their minds. The beggar couldn’t bother those few that thought they were strong, but they couldn’t ignore the faint silver light that was behind Sui Xiong.

Sui Xiong didn’t realize it himself, but the God of Justice saw and didn’t tell him.

That very moment, behind him, the faint silver light was like a full moon, spinning slowly. No matter how fast he was flying, it followed him casually. It wasn’t affected. Among the huge system that was formed by the Thousand Worlds, besides that barbarian who everyone thought was occasionally crazy, only guys that were really bored of life would try to tick off the moon of silver light that signified the existence of greatness.

Any man that did so would have a tragic outcome. Part of them would die and the other part that wasn’t dead would rather be. Only a few lucky ones that ran into one that was in good mood would be beaten up till they couldn’t take care of themselves, but stay alive.

The only one who was beaten up and still could run around actively, was the psychopath flying on the wooden axe. God knows why the psychopath could be so shameless; maybe He was the illegitimate son of the one who transformed into a commoner.

Under the countless eyes, Sui Xiong and the God of Justice trekked for almost a month. They went against the current from the negative realm in the Ring of World and trudged against great unimaginable torrents. He finally returned to the material realm in the Ring of World. Then, they flew through the material realm and arrived at the emptiness near the main dimension. They stopped at a place close to the Ashes Woods.

“Here it is,” Sui Xiong said. “It’s near enough.”

The God of Justice nodded and raised the axe that was underneath his feet all the while. He looked around with His God-like bull’s eyes that looked more like a butcher’s. He seemed to be looking for a target to swing His axe at.

That made the guys, who began to stir when they saw the silver light behind Sui Xiong, disappear. They originally planned to kill Sui Xiong; but with the distance he was at, even if they launched an attack, Sui Xiong would be able to flee to main dimension in time. If they couldn’t kill Sui Xiong, there was no point in attacking.

As for the small world that looked mysterious, that was it. The powerful experts wouldn’t be bothered by it.

Just when Sui Xiong was ready to take a break in the main dimension, the nearby emptiness shook, and a smallish piece of floating land flew over.

It was a huge piece of green grassland, with cows and sheep wandering around casually. There was a huge earthworm wriggling around happily. It was singing and digging at the same time. In the mud puddle by the side, there was a huge catfish sleeping soundly. It looked ugly when it slept, and was grinding its teeth. At the door of a house that was built crudely, there were two Gods. A lion head with human body and a bear head with human body were playing chess while drinking. The sunshine that was frozen by the border of the land pulled their shadows long, as though it were a scene from a relaxing countryside.

“Hey?! Isn’t that Steel Lion? Aren’t you living around the Boundless Open Country? Why did you come here? You even moved your God system’s holy kingdom... Are you dividing your property?” the God of Justice got close and asked curiously.

The main God of the Desolation God system smiled bitterly as he stood up, and passed Him a jar of drinks. He sighed. “We didn’t share the same philosophy. It is just matter of time until we fell out. I might as well leave now while there is still some affection.”

Sui Xiong nodded lightly. He’d heard Morani’s introduction once. He knew that the divergence of the Desolation God system and Orc God system where they stayed temporarily was actually huge. To be able to go their separate ways in peace was considered good.

“Are you interested in staying with me?” He smiled, waved his tentacles and beckoned. “I have a huge place that could be transformed as you wish!”

Morani flew over suspiciously and looked at the chaotic world. At first, he looked lost. But after some thinking, His face grew solemn.

“No wonder I didn’t see you for a few years. You were busy preparing this,” He couldn’t help but complement. “That’s great! How did you get this? I need to get one too!”

Sui Xiong chuckled and shared his experiences with Him. He let out cries of surprise, and his facial expressions were like a person from Sichuan opera. But in the end, he froze in a flabbergasted expression like the Chinese character “Jiong.”

“...Actually, was quite easy.” Sui Xiong concluded as such.

Steel Lion Morani shook His head and let out a heavy sigh. Then, he forgot about that idea.

However, He brought His God followers together and temporarily stayed.

According to His saying, an interesting thing was hard to come by, so He had to stand back and watch. But no matter if it was Sui Xiong or the God of Justice, they understood what he really meant.

If no one came to mess around, He would really just be there to watch. But if there was anyone that came to cause trouble, it would ruin his mood to watch. The four of them from the Desolation God system would immediately come to blows, and mince the man to feed the earthworm!

“You are good at making friends!” the God of Justice told Sui Xiong quietly.

Sui Xiong raised his eyebrows and felt smug with success.
