Chapter 176 Xinglan (1/2)
The world in front of him started to twist. The sky spun and Xie Chi fell unconscious.
This was a luxurious mansion owned solely by the movie emperor. Ren Ze and Yan Jing were chatting on the ground floor when a person suddenly arrived.
The man in front of them was tall and burly with a straightforward and handsome face and a calm and introverted temperament. He was a man who made people feel he was safe and trustworthy. Yan Jing jumped in front the moment he saw this man and his face was full of wariness.
“Who is this?” Ren Ze saw that Yan Jing’s reaction was so big and asked in a whisper while covering his mouth.
The man seemed to have heard it. He smiled and introduced himself. “Hello, I am the peak actor Li Hao. I am a pet but I left the organization previously. This is why I didn’t die when Xie Chi realized his wish.”
Ren Ze thought he was here to get revenge and his face became cold. “What do you want?”
“Don’t get me wrong. I just want to see Xie Chi. I have something to say to him.”
Ren Ze still wasn’t at ease. “You said you left the organization previously. Why didn’t Jiang Shuo kill you?”
Li Hao’s face showed a momentary loneliness. He took a deep breath, calmed his mood and answered in a flat tone, “In fact, he wasn’t really a ruthless person. We were all wrong about him.”
Ren Ze and Yan Jing disagreed.

Li Hao requested, “Can I see him? You can rest assured. The movie emperor’s mansion has an anti-assassination system. Anyone who wants to attack the movie emperor will directly trigger the system and there is only a dead end.”
Li Hao searched on his mobile phone. He showed the high-authority information to the two of them and they found Li Hao wasn’t lying.
Ren Ze looked at Yan Jing and asked for Yan Jing’s opinion. Yan Jing nodded at him. The two of them reached an agreement and led Li Hao upstairs to the door of Xie Chi’s office. Yan Jing was afraid to disturb Xie Chi and knocked on the door first, but didn’t hear a response. He thought that Xie Chi had gone home and pushed the door open, only to find Xie Chi lying on the sofa with his eyes tightly closed. He seemed to be asleep but he obviously wasn’t sleeping peacefully.
Li Hao saw this scene. “I can wait outside.”
The air conditioner here was low and there were no blankets. Yan Jing wanted to wake Xie Chi up so he could go home and sleep when he heard Xie Chi whispered, “—Si Nian.”
“Si what?” Yan Jing wondered.
Li Hao heard it clearly and his expression changed. Ren Ze had been paying close attention to Li Hao and he frowned when he saw this.
Yan Jing felt that something was wrong and went forward to wake Xie Chi. However, Xie Chi seemed to have fallen into an endless dream and temporarily couldn’t be woken up. Yan Jing became anxious. They had only left for a while and Xie Chi was like this. He was about to find a way to wake Xie Chi up when Li Hao told him, “Let’s go out. He will be fine.”
Ren Ze wondered, “Why are you so sure?”

Li Hao’s gaze directed at Xie Chi was full of complex emotions. “Si Nian is the name of the demigod 30 years ago.”
Ren Ze and Yan Jing exchanged looks, their faces shocked. Demigod? The one who was undoubtedly the strongest in the app but he was besieged and died?!
“How could Xie Chi call out the demigod’s name?!” Ren Ze was worried about Xie Chi and immediately asked.
Li Hao seemed to recall the demigod’s grandeur back then. His face was mysterious as he looked down and said, “Xie Chi and the demigod are extremely closely related. I originally came here to tell him about this. I didn’t expect him to have already learned it…”
He paused and whispered, “Let’s go out and wait.”
Xie Chi was dreaming. Xie Chi had been having strange dreams for many years.
In the dream, there were the howls of ghosts, people whose faces couldn’t be seen, strangely shaped buildings, blood, corpses and countless horrors. There was also a strange call like an infrasound wave. He couldn’t hear the calls but he knew they were there.
Every time he woke up, he always felt lost. He felt like he had a mission in his heart but he had missed it. This call caused numerous waves in his heart before he entered the app.
Xie Chi only now remembered that he never seemed to have this strange dream again after entering the app. In the past, these dreams were a common thing for him. It now appeared that the place where the dream was calling him to was the app. He had already arrived at the place of the summoning so the dream had achieved its purpose and disappeared.

Xie Chi figured this out once he saw the full picture of his dreams over the years.
The dream was the legendary experience of one person in the app.
The man’s name was Si Nian.
Xie Chi couldn’t see his face clearly. Only his back could be seen but the moment this person appeared, Xie Chi accurately called out his name. Somehow, he was sure that this man was called Si Nian.
Fragments flashed quickly and Xie Chi could even hear the voice of this young man called Si Nian.
Si Nian looked at the supernatural app software spontaneously installed on his phone and smiled. It had finally found him.
On the app, in the center of the scarlet screen, black words were shaking and jumping like the devil’s temptation.
[Do you have any wishes you wish to achieve?]
Si Nian threw himself onto the sofa. He wasn’t in a hurry to enter and instead looked up at the stars and the sky outside the window. He lived on the top floor of a hotel-style apartment building that was several hundred storeys high. This was the place closest to the sky and the stars seemed reachable. Under the boundless night, in the shining galaxy, he seemed extremely small like a grain of sand in a long river.

Existentialism could never escape the test of nothingness.
He was an orphan and the meaning of life had to be given by himself. Even if he became a successful person in the eyes of society, he still couldn’t get rid of the sense of nihility. He could throw himself into the noise, sink into the impetuousness and go all over the place. However, he never found a face that he was willing to stop for and give infinite meaning to.
