There is indeed nothing absolutely certain in this world, but, Cheng Shi... Be yourself. Being yourself is the most certain way among all the dangers. I am indeed not a doctor, I just happen to be a pastor, and like someone else, a clown, and I also happen to have been protected by [death] and [deception], so by analogy, I can guess some of the clown's thoughts. I wanted to remind you that thinking too much will only increase your troubles, just like this skull, it's good to have no brain. ② Chuang Yang is awesome. There's not much to explain. Our meeting is a cycle of fate... ③ All of Jianling began to chant: I've come to reclaim someone's soul. He changed my fate once, and now it's my turn. I'm sorry, someone has already changed my unlucky, near-death fate. As for the ancient well behind the Gate of Hell, Hongxin will take me there later. If it weren't for me this time, you would have really died in the Gray Realm. You promised it wouldn't be like last time. Do you know how far I carried you all the way? He can't just leave without a word. Even if I have to tie him up, I'll bring him back. You forced Chenling away. I can't enjoy the honored treatment. From the bottom of my heart, I've long considered you a friend, and my best friend. Forgive the infamous Hongxin. And give him a legal citizenship. Who else in the world besides me, Jian Changsheng, could do that? If you're in trouble, I'll lead the way to rescue you; if you leave, I'll actively come looking for you. It's not because I, Jian Changsheng, have nothing better to do, but because you are the most important person in my life. I can't leave you alone in this cold palace. Of course I want to live, but I'm afraid you'll be in danger. Chen Ling, we may never see each other again. I don't know how we should say goodbye, but without you, there would be no Jian Changsheng today. Thank you for giving me a wonderful life. ④ Ranze is awesome.
