Chapter 626
Jiang Yi's ID card from the City of Ten Thousand Races was given to him by Ji Chen.
Therefore, as soon as he arrived in the City of Ten Thousand Races, Ji Chen received the news.
but……
Ji Chen's attitude was indifferent; he simply gave a casual "hmm," as if he didn't care much about Jiang Yi.
Just as he casually waved his hand to turn off the screen, he heard a forceful female voice come from there again:
"Hmm? What are you 'hmm'ing about?"
"You've already been labeled 'a person with no future' by the scales of fate, and you don't seem to care at all?!"
Suddenly, a face with striking features appeared on the screen, bearing a resemblance to Ji Chen, yet exuding a powerful and sharp aura.
Ji Chen couldn't help but look helpless just by hearing the voice.
He tried to turn off the screen, but it was obviously too late.
Meanwhile, the assertive woman on the screen continued her incessant, aggressive tirade:
"Hmph! Judging from your pathetic attitude, you don't take this seriously at all, do you?!"
"You think you're a chosen one, and that the so-called 'scales of fate' can't determine your destiny?"
"Do you really think you're so special or amazing?"
"Throughout history, how many proud and arrogant geniuses have had the same mentality as you! They thought they were the protagonists of their time and that nothing could go wrong, but what was the result?"
"Let me tell you, the outcome of the 'scales of fate' has never been wrong!"
"Now! You have only two paths before you—"
"Either you end it all now and abandon the identity of 'Ji Chen'!"
"That way, you can continue to live under other identities."
Upon hearing this, Ji Chen, who had been completely uncooperative, quietly looked up at the screen.
He made eye contact with the woman on the screen.
Their eyes met, as if they were conveying a lot of information.
The powerful woman on the screen also changed her attitude somewhat subtly after that one glance.
After an inexplicable silence, she spoke again in a deep voice:
"This path, although it can be considered a one-time solution."
"But, in any case, you can't choose."
"Leaving aside your innate talent, heritage, and the various resources your family has invested..."
"What if you lose the identity of 'Ji Chen' and live under another identity? How would your race be classified?"
"My husband and I may not mind, but the old folks in the clan might find it hard to accept."
"If things go wrong, we'll just open the altar and strip you of your clan status!"
"So, although there are two paths, you can only choose the second one!"
"That is -"
"Go to the land of the dead and find a way to fake death."
"Although this method will waste a year of your time..."
"But at least, Ji Chen's identity can be preserved, and your situation in the clan will not be awkward."
"Later, I'll think of other ways to make up for this wasted year for you."
Ji Chen's breathing was somewhat low, and his attitude remained uncooperative, his tone lazy and nonchalant:
"How do we fix it? Use 'Scales of Fate' again?"
At this point, the woman on the screen was speechless for a moment.
She paused for a moment, then added:
"That was a year later, after you returned alive from the land of the dead."
"The situation of the Lord of the Underworld is quite different from that of our father and the Lord of the Black Market."
"It's not just because he's lived for 100,000 years, but more importantly, because his identity is 'clean.' He has never been to the Land of Order, nor is he bound by those rules."
“In a city like the City of Myriad Races, if something were to happen to the old man one day, the Land of Order would simply appoint a new city lord.”
"Including the Black Market, if Qi Wu dies one day, it will just be a matter of changing the master of the Black Market."
"But if one day the Lord of the Underworld dies, then the [Nine Netherworlds] will also disappear with him, and no new Lord of the Underworld will appear."
"This is also one of the advantages of a privately owned, special blessed land."
"That's why, once you get to the [Nine Netherworlds], the family won't be able to provide you with any additional assistance."
"However, since the historical figure Hanlong was able to fake his death and defy fate by passing through the Underworld..."
"Then, my self-proclaimed extraordinary younger brother, you shouldn't be any worse than that Hanlong, right?"
