He looked into Liang Bing's sincere eyes, and saw that burning flame was not just ambition, but also love.
Lin Ci finally spoke.
He reached out and gently pinched Liang Bing's pointed chin, a slight smile playing on his lips.
That smile held admiration, doting affection, and a subtle hint of approval.
Chapter 165 I won't let you die easily; I'll keep you alive to torture you properly.
Liang Bing's eyes lit up instantly, and she jumped up.
She clung to Lin Ci and kissed him hard on the face without a care in the world.
"I knew you were the best, honey!"
Seeing this scene, Qi Lin's eyes were still red, but she couldn't help but smile.
Keisha and Hexi exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of relief mixed with a great deal of helplessness in each other's eyes.
This younger sister always makes the most unexpected, yet most correct, decisions.
Lin Ci mentally issued instructions to the system.
"I choose the second option."
[Selection confirmed: Capture "Space Principal" and transfer authority.]
[Locating the "Space Principal"...]
[The goal is deeply intertwined with global rules, and a forced separation is underway...]
[Stripping progress 1%...10%...50%...]
The atmosphere inside the palace became somewhat heavy.
Everyone knows that something is about to happen that will overturn the entire understanding of the universe.
He Xi's eyes gleamed with a spirit of inquiry, as she tried to decipher this immense power that was beyond her comprehension.
Keisha stood silently beside Lin Ci, her golden eyes filled with a hint of wariness.
Even gods maintain due reverence when facing the unknown.
[Stripping progress 100%.]
[Peeling complete.]
[Currently teleporting to the main body...]
The system notification tone had just finished.
In the very center of the magnificent palace of the Heavenly Court of Merlo, the space rippled like the surface of water.
Immediately afterwards, a figure was "spit out" from the ripples without warning, and fell awkwardly onto the clean floor.
He was an ordinary-looking elderly man with white hair, dressed in a simple scholar's robe, and wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
He looked like any old professor you'd see at a university, with not a trace of energy fluctuation about him.
But this seemingly ordinary old man was completely stunned the moment he fell to the ground.
He looked around blankly.
The palace was magnificent beyond compare, Keisha exuded a sacred aura, He Xi had a cold look in her eyes, and Liang Bing looked on with amusement.
And that...
When his gaze fell upon the black-haired man sitting lazily on the throne.
For the first time, a feeling of "fear" appeared on his perpetually calm face.
"Lin...Lin Ci?"
The Space Principal is an entity that transforms itself into a concept and merges with the rules of the universe.
It appeared before the world in its true form for the first time.
He didn't even know where he came from.
One second ago, he was still observing the universe's structure within his own mental dimension.
The next second, an irresistible, incomprehensible, and unanalyzable force appeared.
They simply dragged him out of the rules and threw him here.
It's like pulling a fish out of the sea.
Simple, brutal, and unreasonable.
Liang Bing crossed her arms, looking down at him with a cruel sneer on her lips.
"long time no see."
The principal looked at Liang Bing, then at Lin Ci behind her, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
He understood something instantly.
"It's you……"
His voice became hoarse with fear.
Lin Ci ignored him and simply spoke to the system.
"Transfer power to Liang Bing."
[The transfer of power has begun.]
A golden pillar of light, invisible to the naked eye, composed of countless streams of information and lines of rules.
It was forcibly extracted from the body of the Space Principal.
The Space Principal let out a painful groan, feeling his connection to the universe being severed inch by inch.
That feeling terrified him more than death itself.
That is nothingness, where the very foundation of existence has been completely stripped away.
The golden beam of light circled once in the air before pouring directly into Liang Bing's brow.
Liang Bing's body trembled violently.
Her eyes instantly lost focus, and within her pupils, countless stars rose and fell, the origin and end of the universe constantly unfolding within them.
An overwhelming amount of information flooded into her mind.
She saw the river of time and the barriers of space.
She witnessed the birth of life and the rise and fall of civilizations.
She saw the universe, from its initial explosion at a singularity to its eventual heat death.
She felt herself becoming the universe itself.
Every atom, every energy transition, is under her control.
With just a thought, she could extinguish a star prematurely.
With just one sentence, she can completely rewrite the physical laws of an entire galaxy.
This is the authority of Heaven.
It was unclear how much time had passed before the light in Liang Bing's eyes gradually faded.
She slowly opened her eyes and looked at her hands.
Her expression was peculiar.
There was shock, there was confusion, but more than anything, there was a sense of...novelty.
"I rely on..."
She couldn't help but swear.
"This feeling... is so amazing."
She turned her head and looked at the Space Principal, who was still slumped on the ground, barely breathing.
Her eyes instantly turned icy cold.
It was the gaze of a god looking down upon ants, devoid of any emotion.
She spoke slowly.
"Do you know what? I can make you die however I want right now."
"I can make you be blown to pieces by ten thousand supernovae at the same time."
"It can also trap you in a time loop, making you relive the moment I slapped you in the face forever."
“I could even completely erase the very concept of your existence from this universe.”
"It makes you seem as if... you've never existed."
The space principal's body trembled violently from extreme fear.
He wanted to beg for mercy, but found that he couldn't even utter a single syllable.
Faced with this new "Heavenly Way," he was even stripped of the right to speak.
"But..."
Liang Bing suddenly laughed again, laughing like a child who had received a new toy.
"I don't want you to die yet."
She walked up to the principal of the Space Academy, squatted down, and reached out her finger to lift his chin.
"I'm going to keep you and play with you slowly."
Chapter 166 This is the power you've always wanted.
The cold, icy voice carried a morbid pleasure, as if admiring a beautifully crafted toy about to be disassembled.
Lin Ci, sitting on the throne, coughed lazily.
