“I’m letting you see your friends and family one last time before you die, isn’t that very kind of me?” The will of the universe cackled as he made a grab for Wu Chen. Wu Chen could not fight back and went flying toward the will of the universe.

“Humph!” Su Jin scoffed as he swiftly moved to where Wu Chen was and caught him. But Bo Ya started flying too, so Su Jin had to fly over and catch her too.

“I’ll see how many you can catch!” said the will of the universe frostily as he aimed for Ye Yun next.

Su Jin quickly stopped Ye Yun from flying further with his body. Then he looked at the will of the universe and snapped, “Don’t you think you’re being very childish by fighting this way?”

“Am I?” said the will of the universe before cackling loudly.

Just then, Ye Yun, Wu Chen, and Bo Ya unleashed their most aggressive attack. Bo Ya’s attack pierced right through Su Jin’s throat.

Wu Chen’s attack struck Su Jin’s head, while Ye Yun’s went through Su Jin’s heart. All three attacks were fierce and aimed at areas that could kill Su Jin immediately.

Su Jin stared at them in disbelief as he took great effort to push them away before retreating a few hundred meters. He panted heavily in horror. Their attacks had nearly killed him.

“HAHA… I can’t believe you dared to keep the people I revived by your side. I’m not sure if I should call you brave or stupid!” The will of the universe cackled some more, then said in a sinister voice, “Our ability to recuperate is incredible only because we’re prepared for attacks. It might look very severe, but the attack might not have even hurt our cells. There are only two ways for us to get hurt. Either our opponent is way more powerful than us, or we have to be caught off guard!

“But catching us off guard is not easy. Our bodies are always on guard. The only ones who can make you let your guard down are probably these people, right?” The will of the universe smiled even more brilliantly as he gave the three of them a pleased look. “In order to avoid detection, I only left a very small trigger behind in their minds, and I could only use it once. But the effect has been better than I had thought.”

Ye Yun, Bo Ya, and Wu Chen slowly came back to their senses. They were a little confused at first, then they noticed the blood on themselves as well as one very injured Su Jin.

Ye Yun instantly flew to where Su Jin was and tears filled her eyes as she said, “Su Jin… we did this to you, didn’t we?”

Su Jin squeezed a smile out and caressed her face. “It’s not your fault. I was careless.”

Wu Chen and Bo Ya were too horrified to speak. In that instant, they had lost their consciousness. But after they snapped out of it, they could remember what they just did to Su Jin. They could hardly believe themselves.

The one who understood Su Jin best was not Ye Yun, Su Qing, or Kano Mai, but the will of the universe. The two of them were pretty much the same in terms of the way their bodies worked, so they knew each other’s weakness very well. Su Jin had become very weak after this attack.

He tried to force his wounds to heal, but it was of little use. He could feel his vision becoming blurry, as though he might lose consciousness anytime. This was going to prove fatal in a fight with someone like the will of the universe.

“Help Boss to stall for time!” yelled Chu Yi. White air surrounded his body and filled an area more than a hundred meters in diameter. The white air formed a powerful sword that made its way toward the will of the universe.

“You think you’re good enough for that?” The will of the universe scoffed as he snapped his fingers and instantly shattered that sword.

“Chu Yi, move aside!” yelled Su Jin. Chu Yi might have no issue fighting against top tier gods, but he wouldn’t last even a few seconds against the will of the universe. One was a much superior lifeform than the other, so if Chu Yi tried attacking him, he would definitely end up dead.

Chu Yi was indignant, but he was good at obeying his leader’s instructions and quickly moved away. The will of the universe didn’t seem interested in making things difficult for Chu Yi and walked straight up to Su Jin.

“Move aside!” The will of the universe flicked his finger and Ye Yun went flying backward. Su Jin immediately grabbed the air to slow Ye Yun down so that she could catch her balance; otherwise, she would land directly within the broken space behind her. Su Jin and the will of the universe would survive just fine within that space, but not Ye Yun and the rest. Once they entered that area, they would be torn to pieces.

Su Jin looked up at the will of the universe and gritted his teeth, “Looks like you’re not trying to gobble up my soul but you’re trying to… become one with mine!”

“That’s right. My soul is too old and frail, so there’s no way to patch it any further. But not yours. I’ve sacrificed myself to upgrade your strength – aren’t you touched?” said the will of the universe with a big grin. He possessed the same face as Su Jin, but even Su Jin felt that he looked disgusting.

“Touched? Not at all!” Su Jin snorted. “I don’t know how you’re going to do it, but you definitely need to take over control of my soul, right?”

“Of course. I just need you to give up control rights,” said the will of the universe with a smile.

Su Jin glanced at Chu Yi and the rest and frowned. “How very despicable. So, this is what the noble hero who has been controlling the universe for so long has to stoop to in order to survive?”

“It seems pathetic, but it works,” the will of the universe shrugged. “Hand over control over your soul, otherwise I’ll kill them all!”

Everyone was stunned by this threat. Chu Yi yelled angrily, “Boss, tell him to go to hell! If you give him control over your soul, I’ll kill myself!”

“Hahaha! My usually stupid son-in-law has finally said something clever!” Wu Chen burst out laughing.

Su Jin looked straight at the will of the universe and said, “As you can see… I don’t have a choice.”

“Of course, but not everyone will make such an extreme decision for your sake. How about Xu Ran? Or Su Qing? Or your niece, Yuan’er? Or the people from the Department of Supernatural Affairs? Or Alice? You care about a lot of people, but would they make such a choice for you?” The will of the universe snickered and went on, “I’m not going to just kill them. I’m going to get the Handbook to start a most terrifying and despairing Challenge and throw them in. They’ll face despair time and again before slowly dying. Haha! What name should I give such an interesting place? How about the Death Club?”

Su Jin clenched his teeth. Just like what the will of the universe said, he cared about too many people. That was his weakness. Having too many loved ones in a fight like this made him weak.

The will of the universe laughed merrily, then stretched a hand toward Su Jin. “So now… bow to me! Otherwise… I’m very capable of doing what I just said!”

Su Jin clenched his fists tightly. He looked toward Ye Yun and the rest, but he had no choice but to lower his head. The will of the universe was pleased as he grabbed Su Jin’s head, but just then, an icicle pierced through the will of the universe’s body.

The will of the universe’s eyes widened, and he turned to see Shen Wu glaring at him. “You didn’t ask me if you could do that to my brother-in-law!”

“Ask you? You mean ask you if you… had a death wish?” The will of the universe grabbed the air with his free hand and Shen Wu’s body instantly exploded into a mess of blood and flesh that disappeared within seconds.

Now that Shen Wu was dead, the will of the universe tightened his grip on Su Jin’s head again. A gleam shone in his eyes before the light in his eyes went out. This body had become an empty shell. His actual soul had entered Su Jin’s body.
