Chapter 1691 Yes/Yes? This is unfair, all right?

That being the case, would the two Senior Whites be able to add him as a friend?

Song Shuhang was very curious about this.

With the two Senior Whites’ luck, which allowed them to pretty much ‘get whatever they wanted’, what would be the result of them scanning the QR code?

Senior White looked down at the QR code Golden Core Composition as if he wanted to dig it out to study it. “How do I add you as a friend?”

Song Shuhang replied, “You can use your mental energy to scan the QR code. After that, a prompt should pop up. I’ve tried this with several people, and the prompt wasn’t the same for everyone. There were some who could add me as a friend, some who could add me as an ally, and some who were told to upgrade, and couldn’t add me as a friend.”

“I’ll give it a try.” Senior White overlaid his mental energy onto the ‘QR code Golden Core Composition’ projected by Song Shuhang.

After a while…

Song Shuhang curiously asked, “Did you get a prompt?”

Senior White said, “Wait, the response seems to be very slow. It seems the signal isn’t good. Could it be that the signal is delayed because you’re only a primordial soul right now?”

“…” Song Shuhang.

There is a lag for this kind of thing?

Senior White Two said, “Let me give it a try.”

After saying that, he also scanned Song Shuhang’s QR code with his mental energy.

When Senior White Two’s mental energy swept over it, a prompt popped up in front of his eyes.

The appearance of the prompt was accompanied by a beep~ sound.

The prompt said, [Unable to add ‘Song Shuhang’ as a friend. Please ask him to switch the line.]

Senior White immediately said, “Shuhang, try switching the line.”

Song Shuhang was dumbfounded.

What line? And how do I switch it?

I don’t have any idea what you’re talking about.

Senior White Two smiled, and said, “I’ve received a prompt telling me to tell you to switch the line… and there’s more that came with it. It’s asking me if I want to force you to switch it? Haha, does it even need to be said? Of course, it’s a yes from me.”

Song Shuhang hurriedly said, “Senior White T— Stop! Shouldn’t we first discuss if forcing me to switch the line could affect me negatively?”

I’m too witty, to be able to think of changing “two” to “stop” so quickly, my vocabulary truly is profound!

I managed to avoid another catastrophe today.

In addition, he had become very sensitive to the sudden prompts from the QR code Golden Core Composition, worried that there might be pitfalls in them. How could he not? He had been pulled into Sage Monarch Melon Eater’s heavenly tribulation because of one of them.

What should he do if something did happen when he switched the line?

It’s better to research it a bit more. Thinking deeply before making a decision is good practice.

“Too late, I have already agreed to force you to switch the line,” Senior White Two said. “Also, I’ve already told you many times that I have a mind-reading technique.”

“…” Song Shuhang.

Senior White, can’t there be any more trust between us?

The mind-reading technique makes it impossible for us to communicate properly. Whatever happened to the basic trust between people?

“You mentioned my name yourself. That was what activated my mind-reading technique, and now you’re blaming me?” Senior White Two smiled slightly, and then laughed very coldly.

He didn’t have the habit of using the mind-reading technique all day long… but as the ruler of the Netherworld, when others called him in their minds or called out t.i.tles related to him, he had the tendency to use his authority as a ruler to activate the mind-reading technique.

“…” Song Shuhang.

He felt that this might be the reason why many big shots became ‘loners’. Big shots were simply too astounding, and had too many pa.s.sive skills. Among their many skills were some that had the ‘friends.h.i.+p-ending’ effect, and this was likely why they tended to have fewer friends.

While he was thinking this, a beep~ sounded in his consciousness.

Immediately afterward, a message appeared in his mind.

[Temporarily switching to a special line. Yes/Yes.]

“…” Song Shuhang.

This is so unfair!

If there isn’t even a ‘No’ option, why are you even giving me the ability to choose?

The reason why two ‘Yes’ options appeared should be because Senior White Two’s authority was too high. Because of that, switching lines became mandatory, and he didn’t have the authority to choose ‘No’.

Song Shuhang said, “I’ve switched to a special line. Can you try again?”

Beep~ At this moment, a sound rang in Senior White’s ear.

[Do you want to add ‘little friend Shuhang’ as a close friend? Yes/No.]

“Mm-hm, the prompt appeared—it’s asking me if I want to add you as a close friend,” Senior White said. After saying that, he reached out, and clicked on the ‘Yes’ option.

Song Shuhang asked, “Besides a friend and ally, there’s also a close friend?”

It sounded like it was a step further than ‘friends’? Or was it just a different way of calling it?

While talking, Senior White had already confirmed the relations.h.i.+p with him as a ‘close friend’.

The two raised their heads at the same time, and looked at each other.

“Nothing changed,” Senior White replied after feeling it out a little.

Song Shuhang looked at Senior White, and felt that nothing much had changed—it wasn’t like when he added others as friends, and felt the relations.h.i.+p between him and whoever had added him become more intimate.

Could this be the difference between ‘close friends’, ‘friends’, and ‘allies’?

Song Shuhang guessed, and said, “I didn’t feel much change, either. Maybe it’s because the relations.h.i.+p between me and Senior White was already excellent, so even after becoming ‘close friends’, there was hardly any change between us.”

Or… could it be that the favorable impression that he had of Senior White was already maxed, and no matter how much it was enhanced, it wouldn’t change?

While in thought, Song Shuhang suddenly felt his eyes light up.

In front of his eyes, there were suddenly many strange marks.

These marks gradually became clear.

A golden ‘line’ had formed between him and Senior White, connecting them together.

At the same time, there were many other colorful ‘lines’ extending out from him.

Blue threads, white threads, black threads, gold threads, and three seven-colored threads, most of them plunged into the void, with no end in sight.

These are… my karmic threads?

Song Shuhang had come into contact with these threads a long time ago.

The number of blue lines had remained unchanged, staying at about 100. Song Shuhang previously guessed that the blue lines were his family members or relatives, and the numbers probably matched.

Song Shuhang softly said, “I’m now quite certain that the blue lines should be family.”

The white lines numbered the most. Previously, there were thousands of lines… but now, it had surged to a countless number. Song Shuhang felt like he had become a tentacle monster, with countless white lines covering his field of vision.

For the white lines to surge to this number in just a few months, Song Shuhang could only think of one possible reason why—the show of divinity.

This must be because of the ‘Impregnating Gaze’.

The white lines should have been those whom he had made contact with, but merely ‘pa.s.sersby’ without much, if any, emotions between them.

But what did the other lines represent?
