Chapter 1732: K

Lead-gray clouds floated in the sky.

On the rugged black earth, a figure in a red-bottomed, black-patterned opera robe walked slowly... The hem of the opera robe danced in the wind. Directly in front of him, a towering mountain peak stood majestically in the Gray Realm.

In this world, this mountain peak had no name...

But the moment the opera-robed figure stepped onto that mountain,

it gained a name.

“Chou Peak.”

Chen Ling’s eyes looked at this desolate, dead mountain, and he whispered softly.

On Chou Peak, there were only giant rocks, no houses, no roads, no figures, no vitality at all... But as Chen Ling stepped onto it step by step, the electric light of 【Reshaping】 flashed rapidly across the mountain!

Clean and tidy stone steps for climbing quickly took shape, and the ugly giant rocks on both sides were carved into exquisite shapes. At the very top of the mountain, a small stone house rose from the ground amidst the electric light, complete with a fence, a chimney, and a patch of round cobblestone ground.

This barren mountain, which had remained unchanged in the Gray Realm for ages, had completely changed its appearance because of his arrival...

It was the appearance from Chen Ling’s memory.

Even if the Clown wasn’t here yet, this “facade mountain” that supported the Opera Dao Ancient Treasury couldn’t be neglected. Chen Ling had already arranged everything in advance. When he walked to the edge of the familiar cliff, he took a deep breath...

Then he raised his hand and flicked gently in the void...

The curtain of the stage was pulled open from the void.

No matter which world it was, Chen Ling’s highest authority over the Opera Dao could take effect. This ancient treasury, which hadn’t had a master for who knows how long, finally welcomed its new master today.

The opera robe fluttered, Chen Ling took a step, and his figure instantly disappeared from Chou Peak without a trace.

The orderly Opera Dao Ancient Treasury from his impression did not appear. Chen Ling felt as if he were in a chaotic world storing massive amounts of information. All kinds of “plays” and “performances” throughout history were stored in this world, but they were disordered and messy, just like the chaotic mass graves in the Martial Dao Ancient Treasury.

“Is this the original appearance of the Opera Dao Ancient Treasury...” Chen Ling muttered to himself.

He stood in the deepest part of the Opera Dao Ancient Treasury, raised his hand and waved. Under his highest authority, everything here changed rapidly according to Chen Ling’s will.

Visual and auditory performances with film and television as carriers were folded into countless discs and gathered in the same area; ancient play scripts with text as carriers became booklets, stuffed into bookshelves, and gathered in another area... Besides that, there were sound areas, performance areas, and a prop area storing countless facial masks...

If the previous Opera Dao Ancient Treasury was a chaotic large treasure house, then under Chen Ling’s command, it was gradually becoming an exquisite museum.

When Chen Ling opened his eyes again, an Opera Dao Ancient Treasury no different from his memory came into view.

The dim sunset shone through the window, spilling onto the quiet floor of the library, bathing everything in golden light... Between the bookshelves, a red-clad actor stood alone.

His gaze swept slowly around. The four ancient wooden bookshelves seemed to be plated with gold in the sunset.

【Sheng】, 【Dan】, 【Jing】, 【Mo】.

Chen Ling closed his eyes and spoke softly:

“Senior brothers and sisters...”

“Little Junior Brother... has returned.”

As his voice fell, following Chen Ling’s activation of the Opera Dao Ancient Treasury authority again, those four ancient bookshelves suddenly erupted with intense fire!

Raging flames frantically swallowed the play scripts on the bookshelves. The foundation of these four major roles throughout history was reshaped in the firelight, and a strange power was descending upon the ancient treasury, using the Opera God Path as a carrier.

At the same time, Chen Ling flipped his palm, and four small booklets appeared out of thin air:

【Ning Ruyu’s Character Biography】, 【Luan Mei’s Character Biography】, 【Wenren You’s Character Biography】, 【Mo Role’s Character Biography】.

These four character biographies were written by Chen Ling himself using 【All-Living Being Play】. He wrote all the personalities and memories of his senior brothers and sisters from the previous world into them. As Chen Ling waved his hand, these four booklets flew into the four raging fires simultaneously.

In an instant, the four fires burned even more fiercely!

The sunset outside the window was like a fire seed crossing worlds, casting its glow into every corner of the library. I don’t know how much time passed before four figures gradually walked out of the firelight...

The leader was as white as snow, with an otherworldly temperament; the woman beside him had a cheongsam cinched at the waist, her brows heroic; beside her was a tall and majestic man with a flowing domineering aura; the last young man had his eyes lowered, low-key and mysterious.

They stood side by side in front of the twilight bookshelves, their eyes flowing with light, as if they were visitors from across the world, looking at Chen Ling with smiles...

When these four familiar figures appeared again, Chen Ling’s heart trembled.

He parted his lips tremblingly...

“Senior brothers and sisters...”

“Little Junior Brother.” Ning Ruyu smiled gently. “Reversing the era, restarting the world... you really did it.”

“I knew our Little Junior Brother would succeed.” The Mo role said as a matter of course.

“You’ve worked hard, Little Junior Brother.” Luan Mei looked at him with some heartache.

“Little Junior Brother, Senior Brother will cook you a big meal tonight to welcome you back!”

Wenren You patted him on the shoulder.

Chen Ling looked at this dreamlike scene, unable to recover for a long time.

The senior brothers and sisters of the Opera Dao Ancient Treasury were originally incarnations of characters from play scripts throughout history. The Red King of the Fifth Generation could materialize them, and Chen Ling, of course, could do the same now...

It’s just that the Red King of the Fifth Generation took them as disciples, while Chen Ling chose to continue their relationship from the previous world through 【Character Biographies】, becoming fellow disciples.

“What’s wrong, Little Junior Brother? Why are you so dazed?”

“He must be a bit dazed to see us back...”

“Little Junior Brother, although our memories come from you, our love for you is real.”

“Little Junior Brother, no matter which world it is, Senior brothers and sisters will always be with you...”

“It’s a pity we don’t know where the fifth one is now, otherwise we could be reunited...”

“But since we are back, finding the fifth one is only a matter of time.”

“……”

The four senior brothers and sisters surrounded Chen Ling, comforting him one after another. Chen Ling gradually pulled himself out of his daze, a warm smile curling his lips.

“Thank you, senior brothers and sisters.” Chen Ling bowed to the four of them.

“Little Junior Brother, you don’t have to be so polite. Don’t forget that you are the master of the Twilight Society now.” Ning Ruyu smiled lightly. “By the way... Little Junior Brother, did you forget something?”

As the other three senior brothers and sisters also looked at Chen Ling with smiles, the latter finally realized something.

He took something out from his bosom and respectfully handed it to the four senior brothers and sisters...

“Senior brothers and sisters...”

“This time, I’ve also relied on your care.”

As Chen Ling spread his palms, four playing cards appeared in front of them respectively...

【Spades K】, 【Clubs K】, 【Diamonds K】, 【Hearts K】.

Seeing these four cards, the four senior brothers and sisters smiled slightly:

“With pleasure... Little Junior Brother!”
