Chapter 206
"Awake? How are you feeling?"

"Ji?" Ling Yi looked at the man in front of him suspiciously.

She sat up from the bed and touched the back of her neck.

"Sorry!" Ji's eyes were full of apology.

"Did you have someone knock me out and bring me here?" Ling Yi looked at the room.

Ji looked at Ling Yi apologetically.

"I asked my people to invite you to come here. It may be that my attitude when I spoke was a bit wrong, so the people below misunderstood what I meant, sorry."

Ling Yi understood, no wonder she didn't get any warning before being knocked out.

The repair ability was circulating in the palm of his hand, Ling Yi twisted his neck, "What do you want me to do here?"

"The deal between me and the rules has reached a critical moment." Ji's face was a little embarrassed, "but something happened to my house, and I need to go back now; and this place cannot be separated from guards, so..."

Ling Yi understood, "So you invited me here?"

Ji nodded, "Only you and I know about this matter. I'm a little worried about letting others come here."

"Is it worth it?" Ling Yi looked at Ji puzzled.

Exchange the privilege of gods for the opportunity to trade with the rules, and exchange his own god core for the result of four years of late evolution of creatures other than humans; so self-sacrificing, but destined no one to know his credit, is it worth it?
"It doesn't matter whether it's worth it or not. I just thought about it and did it. I just want a clear conscience."

"With a clear conscience? But for this transaction, the rules not only require your God Core, but also the luck, lives, and even corpses of more than 200 million people in the black street." Ling Yi used the phrase when she said this. It was a statement tone, her tone didn't fluctuate at all, but her eyes were full of puzzlement.

"Even if the residents in Black Street are death row inmates, when the rules are completely harvested in a few days, they will not leave a trace of their existence in this world; this is too much for some of them. It's cruel. Seeing their souls fly away and have no chance of reincarnation, can you have a clear conscience like this?"

"Ling Yi." Ji raised his hand and patted Ling Yi's shoulder lightly, "You look good."

Ji motioned Ling Yi to look up at the water mirror above the Divine Core, "Look, is the scene on the black street very different from when you saw it half a year ago?"

Ling Yi looked at the scene in the mirror in a daze, "Why?"

She was a little confused. When people started dying without warning one after another in the dark streets, why didn't the people living here panic?

Ji looked at the gentle-looking sinners in Heijie, and said, "I told them all this before they were bound to Heijie."

Some people believed it, some people didn't; among those who believed it, he brought those who were willing to participate in this death to the black streets and gave them absolute asylum.

5000 years have passed, and now, it's time for them to fulfill their promise.

"Whether they are the sinners in the underworld who will be harvested in the ghost world, or the sinners who are still alive in the underworld, they already know their future fate."

"Why would they agree to sign such a ridiculous contract with you?"

Ji laughed, but he didn't answer Ling Yi's question.

"Ling Yi, if one day, you find that you can end the last days; but as a price, you may die. Then, are you willing to end the last days, so that everything in the world is no longer in dire straits, so that human beings can continue to pass on?"

Ling Yi replied without hesitation, "I am willing."

"Why?" Ji asked back.

"Human beings hurt you deeply, and there is nothing else in all things that makes you worry about it. Why are you willing to sacrifice yourself to fulfill them?"

Ling Yi was speechless.

She knew why those people were willing to sign such an unequal treaty with Ji.

There are good people and bad people among human beings, but no one is absolutely good or bad; she should not hate all human beings in the world because of what she has experienced.

Ling Yi broke the seal on human beings asking to listen.

In an instant, a strong desire enveloped her...

"God, let me see my family again. As a price, I will give you everything I have received in this life."

"God, after my death, please protect my family from illness and disaster, as a price..."

"God, please let me..."

"God..."

All kinds of begging voices sounded in her mind. Ling Yi looked at the humans in the water mirror. This time, everything about everyone became transparent in front of her.

Ling Yi pursed her lips, is it good to speak when a person is about to die?
Why didn't she hear in their pleas the words of profit for themselves?

"...Ji." Ling Yi looked at the kind smile on Ji's face.

"Sorry, I'm afraid I can't stay here. I want to go out and have a look."

"Go." Ji watched Ling Yi leave his room...

"Pfft -" After Ling Yi left, Ji no longer suppressed the itching in his throat.

When Ling Yi also appeared in the water mirror, Ji chuckled and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

He finally fulfilled the last request of everyone in the black street to him.

Ling Yi walked aimlessly on the street.

In the death crisis that lasted for half a year, the people who should have left have long since left. Coupled with the government's purge activities, the only people who are still staying in the underworld are those who have signed contracts with Ji.

The faces with warmth in their numbness made Ling Yi's heart feel a little heavy.

She stood blankly in the center of the street for a while, and her wish became stronger and stronger as time passed.

Ling Yi, who was among these people making wishes, felt like a small boat in the river, helplessly meandering forward under the push of the river.

"I have always believed that the saying that people are inherently good by nature is not false." Ji came behind her at some point and said softly.

Ling Yi twitched the corners of her mouth, and it was rare that she did not refute this sentence.

"What will happen to the black streets after these people's bodies disappear?" Even though she already knew the answer to this question, Ling Yi couldn't help but ask.

No matter what evil deeds these people have done before coming to the underworld, as long as they step into the underworld, they are existences worthy of admiration.

"It will disappear." Because the Black Street was originally a special area that he established at the junction of time and space relying on the Divine Core. The Divine Core exists in the Black Street, and the Divine Core no longer exists. The Black Street...disappears.

Ling Yi closed her eyes weakly.

"Is that why you asked someone to bring me to the Black Street?"

Ji didn't speak.

"I thought, I know what to do."

God is so small in the face of rules.

She is unable to change the future of this world, nor can she change the fate of these people.

All she can do is to satisfy these people's inner desires as much as possible and let them go peacefully.
