"The Thousand Herrscher? That little blonde girl should be it. She suddenly appeared in my consciousness space. She told me directly that this world is fake, and everything was done by another Herrscher who was also on the Honkai side. Those students deliberately angered your surface personality and kept absorbing her negative emotions to fill themselves." After Lei Luyayi hung up the iron sheet, she recalled for a while and then spoke.

"I was wondering why the coward suddenly seemed to have forgotten everything and returned to school. It was not until that guy showed up to explain the situation that I realized that I was tricked by my own kind. I wanted to wake up the coward outside, but the seal could not be broken and my voice could not reach her."

Mei lowered her head with some guilt after hearing this. Obviously, if she had noticed it earlier, perhaps things would have been better and would not have ended up like this.

"What happened next? Did the Thousand Rulers offer you a deal?" Wang Chen asked.

"That's right. That girl knew that I was very angry and unwilling to be used by the Corrosion Ruler, so she made a deal with me. She was responsible for releasing me and helping to restore Mei's memory. And she asked me to be responsible for holding back on a group of people and not killing them. When the time comes, guide these people to a designated direction, and she will arrange to take them away." Lei Lu Mei said.

"What happened next? Were those people taken away by her?" Wang Chen asked.

"I'm not sure about that. It was very chaotic at the time. When I was chasing these guys away, that stinky fox appeared in front of me and tried to stop me. I was already angry because I was being used and bullied again. I started fighting with the other party without thinking. As a result, the fox suddenly slipped away. I paid attention to the surrounding situation and found that there was nothing around here except those cold Honkai beasts. Those people disappeared out of thin air." Lei Luyayi said.

"Is that really the case? You don't know...wait, are you saying that you only fought one battle with the fox?" Wang Chen asked immediately, as if he had noticed something suspicious.

"Yes, recently, I just ran up there and wanted to pull out that damn fox. But I was blasted back by a red-haired girl. I don't know what's wrong with that guy, he bombarded me recklessly." Lei Luyayi said.

"Was that the most recent time the first time you saw the colorless glow?" Wang Chen immediately grabbed Lei Luyayi's shoulders and asked very seriously.

"Is that guy the Colorless Flame you mentioned? Haha, this name really fits the weapons she uses." Lei Luyayi couldn't help but complain.

"It's the first time. I've never seen colorless fire before. Aisha is not here... I see. Are you trying to frame me?" Wang Chen's eyes turned cold and he said in a deep voice.

Chapter 218: Blaming and Borrowing a Knife to Kill

"Well, put the blame on someone?" Meiyi looked a little puzzled after hearing this word. As for Meiyi, she didn't care. Wang Chen continued to ask: "You said before that this was the last time you attacked the Tianming headquarters... You have never attacked before? What happened that led you to go to the Tianming headquarters this time?"

"Before, it was because I had no idea where the Destiny headquarters was, so I searched the ground for a long time, trying to find that stinky fox. As a result, I discovered that this place was an infinite loop of ruins except near Qianyu Academy. I walked for a long time but couldn't get out, so I took a few steps back and walked back to Qianyu Academy." Lei Luya said with a frown.

"So, during that time, I realized that something was wrong with this space, and I tried different directions every day to see if I could escape from here. When I hadn't made any progress, a drone suddenly flew over my head, and out of curiosity, I chased it. As a result, I found the headquarters of Tianming that day, and also felt the breath of that stinky fox, so I took action."

"But I noticed you coming not long after we started. I originally wanted to go to your side, but that little bitch who fired the cannon made me angry. As for what happened afterwards, I won't go into details." Lei Luyayi crossed her arms across her chest, looking a little unhappy about the setback she had suffered earlier.

"So, what exactly is going on? Why does it feel a little too coincidental? A plane suddenly appeared, and we followed it to find the Tianming headquarters, and we happened to run into Mr. Wang Chen and others." Listening to Lei Luyayi's review of the events, Yayi quickly noticed the unusualness of the whole incident and asked.

"Yes, just as you said, it's too much of a coincidence. Because it's not a coincidence at all, but the result of a careful plan. Only the Herrscher of Corrosion who knows that we have come to this world can do this." Wang Chen said, "It wants to kill with a borrowed knife. Use my hand to get rid of the Herrscher of Thunder. Even if it doesn't get rid of it, at least let us fight."

"This..." Yayi quickly understood what Wang Chen meant and couldn't help but look at Lei Luyayi.

"What? Get rid of me?" Lei Luya asked as if she had just reacted.

"The Corrosion Ruler knows my attitude towards the Ruler. It has portrayed you as the source of world destruction throughout the entire Destiny Headquarters. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes and knew that you had no bad intentions and hadn't done anything against the bottom line, otherwise..." Wang Chen didn't finish his words, but his meaning was already very clear.

"This stinky fox, I must chop it into pieces!" Lei Luyayi said angrily.

"Although the other party's move failed, I'm afraid they won't give up easily. We have been under their surveillance. Seeing that we didn't fight to the death and both sides suffered losses, they will definitely have follow-up plans. At least the next step in their plan is probably the colorless glow." Wang Chen said.

"Is it because Mr. Wang Chen said before that the entire Destiny Headquarters is exaggerating that the Herrscher is the root cause of the destruction of the world?"

"No... Actually, the reason why I came to you so quickly, besides to confirm your situation, Mei, there is another reason..." Then, Wang Chen told the two of them his guess about what happened to Aisha.

"Aisha? No, I'm sure I haven't seen her. Not to mention destroying the Far East branch. There is no other place in the world except this open space and those floating islands in the sky." Lei Luyayi shook her head firmly, confirming that she had definitely done such a thing.

"Mr. Wang Chen, Miss Huihuo is our partner after all, why can't we resolve this misunderstanding?"

"Unfortunately, Colorless Radiant Flame firmly believes this. Don't try to convince her. I've tried, and she's incredibly stubborn in this regard. Unless we find Aisha's trace, otherwise..."

Wang Chen paused, then said: "In short, if you want to break the impasse, you need to obey orders. Let me mark you first."

Wang Chen held Meiyi and Meiyi's hands with his left and right hands respectively, and then asked the system to mark them. Soon, the system recorded them, and Wang Chen could use the system to teleport to Meiyi and Meiyi at any time.

After informing the two of his abilities, Wang Chen added, "I need to inconvenience you for a while. I'm worried that if I take you back now, Erosion will react immediately and may directly confront the entire Tianming headquarters. Therefore, you have to stay here and keep your troops in place."

"Okay." Mei naturally nodded.

"Wait a minute! Didn't you agree to let me stay by your side? This is different from what you agreed to with me!" Mei said anxiously.

"You clearly promised me to stay by your side, huh! You big liar servant lied again! You don't keep your word! I know you can hear me! Coax me! Huh! You must at least agree to 100 conditions before you can coax me."

Hearing Yayi's inner voice, Wang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This was the first time he saw someone using inner voice to ask for help from him, and he even had 100 conditions. Wang Chen shook his head and said unhappily, "100 conditions won't work, how about I promise to do one thing for you?"

"Okay! It's a deal!" Lei Luyayi agreed immediately, fearing that Wang Chen would go back on his word. As for her inner thoughts, she was already smiling so happily that Wang Chen couldn't help but block them.

"..." Mei remained silent. Seeing this scene, she suddenly thought of a saying for some reason: The crying child gets the milk.

……

"I have used the power of consciousness to build a cozy little house for you in advance. You can sleep in it when you have nothing to do. There are two large beds in it. Don't sleep on the throne anymore, especially you! Lei Luyayi. I discovered it when I was treating your wound before. No wonder I was wondering why you revealed such a big flaw before. It turns out that you have a stiff neck and can't turn your neck."

Wang Chen pointed to the house he built and said.

"Woo! Stop talking!" No wonder Lei Luyayi liked to tilt her head to one side and look at people with squinted eyes most of the time. I thought she was deliberately pretending to be a queen. But after all, I found out that she had a bad sleeping habit and always slept on the throne, which resulted in a stiff neck and inability to turn her neck.

Lei Lu Yayi was so ashamed that she hid in the house. After seeing Lei Lu Yayi go in, Wang Chen looked at Lei Dian Yayi and said to her, "There are some things I can't say in front of her. Yayi, I'm afraid you will need to take good care of Lei Lu from now on."

"Eh? Me?" Mei asked in surprise.

"Well, although Lei Lu has all your past memories, her personality is completely different, and her mind is not as mature as yours, Meiyi. After all, she was born too recently and has not been tempered. That's why you, Meiyi, need to take care of her." Wang Chen looked at Lei Lu, who was hiding in the house, and said softly, "Maybe this is an opportunity. Not only for me, but also for you, Meiyi, and the entire Changkong City. Do you understand what I mean, Meiyi?"

"…Is this the key to fighting against the collapse of Changkong City?" Mei, who was extremely smart, immediately thought of the key.

"Well, actually I've always been worried about whether you, Mei, can withstand the importance of the Honkai Will by yourself. Maybe with Mei, this situation may become better." Wang Chen said with his eyes slightly narrowed.

Chapter 219 Uesugi Chiya's Dream

Wang Chen finally left Mei and Lei Lu. As he said before, the whole world cannot escape the surveillance of the Herrscher of Corrosion. Once he and Mei and Lei Lu step into the headquarters of the Destiny, the conflict between the Colorless Brilliance and the other party will be immediately ignited by the Herrscher of Corrosion.

Although, leaving it alone did not solve the conflict, it at least gave Wang Chen some buffer time to continue searching for Aisha's whereabouts.

As for Aisha, although Wang Chen did not find her whereabouts from Meiyi and Lei Lu, he at least found a clue. That is Aisha, the colorless radiance is related to more than one Herrscher.

Wang Chen thought of the Valkyrie brought back by the Colorless Radiance—Uesugi Chiya. Her true identity was one of the Thousand Herrschers, and Lei Lu Mei Na had clearly stated that she had cooperated with the Thousand Herrschers. The image that was transmitted through the synchronous link when the brain recalled the memory showed the face of Uesugi Chiya.

Whether it was Mei's emergence and escaping from the control of the Herrscher of Corrosion, or the students of Senba Academy being able to enter the headquarters of Satori without any trouble, or Huihuo and Aisha, they all relied on the intervention of the Thousand Herrscher. Even Mei's memory was successfully unlocked by the Thousand Herrscher.

Therefore, his next goal must be to find Uesugi Chiya. But Wang Chen didn't know what the other party's position was. The Thousand Laws were different from the Thunder Laws. First of all, there might be more than one Thousand Laws Herr. At least from the perspective of Uesugi Chiya, she was just a clone.

Secondly, although the opponent's favorability towards him was inexplicably maxed out, it was different from Lei Lu in that first, it was a belief rather than a liking. Second, Lei Lu never did anything too outrageous from beginning to end. Even when he killed most of the students from Chiyu Academy, he did it after knowing that the opponent was a minion created by the Herrscher of Corrosion. He even avoided Mei from accidentally killing the real students from Chiyu Academy because of the top account.

On the other hand, Wang Chen still remembers what the Thousand Herrscher did to Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple. Moreover, the other party was too extreme, and at least so far, Wang Chen did not have much of a good impression.

But no matter how he felt about the other party, since all the clues now pointed to Uesugi Chiya, he could only try to get information from him again. Now Wang Chen planned to wander around the outer airport first to find Uesugi Chiya's location, and then go back to Wu Se Hui Huo to rest, and then have a good talk with him during the day.

"You really stay in the same place without changing. Why didn't I see you when I first came to the Tianming headquarters?" Wang Chen couldn't help but complain.

Apparently, the Herrscher named Uesugi Chiya was lying carelessly at the entrance of the Central Orbit Station, exactly in the same position as when he first saw her. He was still in that lazy posture, just lying there sleeping, as if he didn't care about anything.

"This behavior logic is just like a programmed NPC... But it's not impossible. After all, the word 'clone' is written on the system panel. Maybe it's really a programmed clone that waits for some keyword search to trigger the next step of the conversation."

Wang Chen shook his head. The other party had obviously entered standby mode and would probably not respond no matter how he shouted. It would be better to go back first since he already knew that the other party would not change position.

Afterwards, Wang Chen turned around and was about to teleport back to the Colorless Brilliant Flame when a slight whimpering sounded from behind him: "Dad... don't..."

Wang Chen was startled, then turned around, only to find that Uesugi Chiya, who was lying straight with his arms folded across his chest, had turned sideways and curled up. His body was shaking for a while, as if he had had a horrible nightmare. A trace of tears could even be seen seeping out of the corners of his eyes.

"What's going on?" Obviously, Uesugi Chiya's sudden change caught Wang Chen's attention. Wang Chen half squatted down and observed him. He saw Uesugi Chiya's cherry lips slightly opened, exhaling orchid breath, sobbing sound coming from it, and tears completely seeped out of his eyes and flowed down.

"Dad... don't leave Qianjiang..." The voice was as soft as a mosquito, but it was very clear in the quiet environment.

"A nightmare? Do Herrschers also dream?" Wang Chen pondered after observing.

Wang Chen was a little curious as he watched Uesugi Chiya mumbling in his sleep. What kind of dream did he have that could make even a Herrscher cry?

"Wanhua!"

Without hesitation, Wang Chen once again transformed into the appearance of Shilu, tapped Uesugi Chiya's brow and entered the depths of Uesugi Chiya's consciousness.

Maybe I can get some clues in the other person's dream.

……

"Dudu... the doll is done~ hehe" A 12-year-old blonde girl was happily sewing the seams of the doll with needle and thread at her desk. In order to avoid being noticed by Uesugi Chiya, Wang Chen hid his figure. Wang Chen felt a little strange when he saw this scene. This looks like a very warm scene, why is the Herrscher outside crying so sadly?

And, for some reason, when Wang Chen saw this little blonde girl, he felt like he had seen her somewhere before. Oh, now I remember, isn't this Uesugi Chiya? Only she's a little younger.

Wang Chen then walked around the outside and saw that it was a large old house where a family of three lived.

But compared to these, Wang Chen was more curious about why the Herrscher of the Thousand was dreaming about scenes from his childhood. Could this be related to the Herrscher of the Thousand? And could he find some clues about Aisha or other aspects from this? Wang Chen decided to patiently read through this dream.

But as the dream progressed, Wang Chen became silent. This is a story about a 12-year-old girl, a girl who should have been happy. The little girl is named Uesugi Chiya, and her family likes to call her Chi-chan. Her favorite thing is to weave dolls. She is the most beloved little girl in the family.

However, even so, her family had high expectations for her, hoping that she would study hard in the next three years, be able to get into a good key high school and university in the future, and finally stand out. Fortunately, Qianjiang was very well-behaved and sensible, and her parents were very relieved of her good character and academic performance. Otherwise, the little girl's life would be like thousands of families, and she would finish her school years in an ordinary way. But everything changed one day when she was 12 years old.

One day when she was 12 years old, a strange middle-aged uncle came to Qianjiang's home with a business card of the president of Rizhao Real Estate Co., Ltd. The strange uncle said that he had taken a fancy to the land of his old house and wanted to buy the land of the old house and develop it.

Qianjiang's father is a very old-fashioned and conservative man. He is unwilling to sell the old house that has been passed down for generations. After the middle-aged uncle visited the house many times to persuade him to no avail, the two finally had a big quarrel and left unhappily. After that, I didn't see the strange middle-aged uncle for a long time.

I thought it was just a small episode, but I didn't expect it would be the beginning of everything. A few months later, Qianjiang's father began to act strangely. He was listless, and sometimes he would breathe hard and look for something very anxiously. He would always take out a jar and take out something wrapped in paper. Soon, his father trembled for a while and then returned to normal.

Once, out of curiosity, Qianjiang secretly took out her father's jar, opened the paper package inside and observed it, and found that what her father was looking for was some white powdery substance.

Chapter 220: Qianjiang's Past Part 1

The time in the dream suddenly jumped forward. When Wang Chen saw the picture again, he noticed that the little girl had grown one year older and the calendar on the table had indeed turned over a year.

Wang Chen even found that many things were missing from the house, and there were occasional sounds of things being smashed, and the sound of parents quarreling could be heard from time to time. Qian Jiang hid in the room and did not dare to come out. From the information of his parents' quarrel, Wang Chen judged that his father was eventually discovered by his family for taking those drugs, so he tried to quit many times. Unfortunately, none of them succeeded. Things at home were gradually sold out just to buy those drugs for smoking.

In Qianjiang's eyes, life began to become miserable. She should have been in the best period of growth, but she ate very little every meal. Her mother cried all day long, and her father stayed at home. It seemed that no one cared about Qianjiang anymore. Qianjiang didn't understand what happened, why there were fewer and fewer things in the house, why her father and mother quarreled more and more, why her father was getting thinner and thinner... Did Qianjiang not do well enough to make her parents angry?

……

In the past, there would be a cake on the birthday, but this time, all that was heard was the endless quarrels between the parents. Qianjiang had no choice but to make a doll that looked like a cake. Many of the dolls were made from Qianjiang's previous dolls, with parts cut off and then pieced together. The cake looked very simple, but Qianjiang still closed her eyes and made a wish on the birthday cake.

"I hope that mom and dad can reconcile, I hope mom will stop crying, dad will stop touching those white demons, I hope this family can return to the way it was before."

Qianjiang has many wishes buried in her heart. She thinks that as long as she makes a wish facing the birthday cake, the wish will come true, just like every birthday in the past~

……

The wish really came true~ Qianjiang looked at the scene in front of her very happily. After a few months, her father bought her many gifts, and her three meals a day became more abundant, and the things at home also gradually became richer. It is said that her father found a new way to make a living and made a lot of money, so the family returned to its original state.

Although the mother looked skeptical and incredulous, she smiled for a while because the family situation had improved. But when she faced the father, she still had a stern face and advised him to quit those things. Although the father agreed, he seemed a little absent-minded.

However, as long as life gets better, then nothing matters. Qianjiang crossed her hands and prayed. She was grateful that the birthday cake elf heard her call and responded to her wish. However, my father's storybook always said that realizing a good wish requires exchange or a price. Otherwise, if wishes can be realized without paying anything, everyone will become a lazy pig who only knows how to make wishes to get things.

So, Qianjiang was thinking, what should she give to the cake elf?

By the way, the best school in Changkong City, Qianyu Academy, is about to start a new round of enrollment expansion. This is a rare opportunity, and students from other parts of the city can transfer there. Although Qianjiang's family is not very wealthy, Qianyu Academy also has a special recruitment class for outstanding students. You only need to get in with excellent grades, and the tuition will be waived. There are even generous scholarships every year for outstanding students.

Qianjiang wanted to get in. She thought that if she was admitted to the special recruitment class, she would not have to pay tuition fees, and maybe she could even help her family make money to relieve the pressure. After all, Qianjiang also wanted to contribute to the family.

All of a sudden, it seemed as if all the previous sufferings were a thing of the past and everything was moving in a good direction.

……

Half a month later, Qian Jiang finished the special recruitment exam. She felt that she performed very well this time, and no questions were difficult for her. Humming a cheerful little song, she walked home. She must tell her parents this good news today. She thought her parents would be very happy.

When Qianjiang hurried to the familiar door of her home, she found that many strange uncles had come to the door of her home and blocked Qianjiang from entering the house. What happened? Why did these people stop Qianjiang? Suddenly, Qianjiang felt someone grabbing her hand. She turned around and saw her mother, whose eyes were swollen from crying again.

Under the guidance of her mother, Qianjiang saw her father, who was sitting on the ground in a depressed state with bloodshot eyes. Qianjiang asked her father why there were so many people outside blocking Qianjiang from entering, and who they were? But her father did not answer, and her mother could no longer control her emotions after hearing this, and she scolded and beat her father. But this time, her father did not quarrel with his mother like before, but accepted it all silently.

……

The original house was sealed, and a bunch of people were moving things. My mother said that all the money my father had was earned from gambling. Now, not only is the money gone, but even the house is gone. My father's land deed was ruthlessly taken away, and those people laughed hideously. Qianjiang felt disgusted and scared. The family could only move into a rental house in despair and live there temporarily.

Suddenly Qianjiang found that she had not brought back her best doll friend, so she took advantage of her parents' inattention, secretly ran back to her old house, sneaked into the yard, quietly opened a small window and crawled in.

Soon, Qianjiang found the doll in the room. Just when Qianjiang wanted to go back, she found that she suddenly heard voices in the hall. Qianjiang quickly hid behind the door of the room and secretly looked outside.

The leader was the bad guy who had robbed Dad's land deed before. He looked very hateful with a big belly. But the one following him was someone Qianjiang would never forget.

He was the man who suddenly came to his home when he was 12 years old and wanted to buy his old house and land, claiming to be the president of Rizhao Real Estate Co., Ltd.

Then, Qianjiang watched them laughing and celebrating, cursing something: "Don't know what's good for you... Let him feel what it means to be at the end of his rope, with his family torn apart..." Qianjiang didn't understand what they were cursing about now, but could only remember this scene, because Qianjiang felt that if he didn't remember it, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

Then, Qianjiang saw that the bad guy handed over her own land deed and property certificate to the president of the real estate company. The president laughed loudly. Although she couldn't hear what they were saying, everything was clear.

……

After everyone left, Qianjiang managed to sneak back. Mom had already gone to bed early and didn't notice Qianjiang leaving. When Qianjiang was about to return to her room, she unexpectedly found that her father's room was still lit. So Qianjiang secretly opened the door and saw her father sitting by the window, staring blankly at the moon.

Qianjiang could see that her father was very sad, so she walked to her father's side and pulled his clothes. Her father turned his head, his eyes were no longer bright, like a person who had lost all hope. Although Qianjiang couldn't understand, she felt very sad when she saw her father's expression, so she put the doll she had just found in her father's palm and said, "Dad, dad... I'm giving my favorite doll to Dad. Whenever Qianjiang is unhappy, just hug the doll. So... if Dad is unhappy, just hug it. It will make Dad happy."

Looking at Qianjiang's hopeful and innocent eyes, the father's eyes seemed to be shining at this moment, squinting slightly, and his eyes began to redden. The father did not take the doll, but hugged Qianjiang tightly. Soon, he cried.

This was the first time that Qianjiang saw her father cry since she was born. Qianjiang also imitated the words her father used to comfort her, but her father cried even harder.

Chapter 221: Stairway to Happiness?

The father and daughter hugged each other for a long time until a painful groan interrupted the scene. The father's face turned pale and his whole body began to tremble. He easily put down his daughter in his arms and anxiously searched for something in the room.
