He coldly met Nelson's gaze, adjusting his posture.

The content of the other party's question was very ambiguous.

"This world" could refer to reality,

or the Sheng Nan Wang dreamscape,

or both reality and the Sheng Nan Wang dreamscape.

If it referred to the Sheng Nan Wang dreamscape, there were two possible interpretations.

It could refer to Miss Chai, who was with him now,

or to Wang Congshan, who had already consumed the [Sacred Benediction Spring Water].

Logically speaking, Wang Congshan, having returned to her normal state, shouldn't have entered the Sheng Nan Wang dreamscape. But if she had, then Nelson was threatening him.

Li Ang couldn't afford to gamble. He couldn't directly quit the mission and barge into the stronghold to check whether Wang Congshan had been dragged into the dreamscape.

If he did that, and Wang Congshan really had entered Sheng Nan's dream, he wouldn't be able to enter the dreamscape again.

Li Ang's brain worked at lightning speed, his expression as cold as ice.

He couldn't be sure if what Nelson said was a coincidence, an insinuation, or a threat.

"Yes."

Li Ang said directly.

A green light lit up.

Before the audience below the stage could react, Nelson quickly drew a card, smiling and saying, "Is a female individual toward whom you harbor feelings of goodwill in this room?"

Li Ang looked at the other party with an icy gaze, his breathing steady, without any fluctuations. "Yes."

A chorus of gasps erupted from below the stage. The astonished audience members looked at each other, seemingly trying to find that person in the audience.

Nelson looked at Li Ang's expressionless face with amusement, and slowly said, "When answering the previous question, did you want to kill me and the entire audience in this studio?"

"Yes."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk."

Nelson clicked his tongue, exclaiming, "Young people are so volatile, always resorting to violence.

Now, listen to the next question.

Do you prefer cats or dogs?"

Huh?

Li Ang raised an eyebrow. The gap between these two questions seemed a bit large.

"Cats."

As a cloud-based cat-lover, Li Ang used to spend a lot of time online looking at cats. Sometimes Wang Congshan would even proactively share Bilibili cat videos with him, and they would chuckle together like weirdos while enjoying them.

"So, your favorite color?"

"Blue."

"What's your favorite vegetable to eat?"

"Cilantro."

"How much do you usually earn from your part-time job per month?"

"Around four or five thousand."

"When do you plan to get married?"

"It used to be twenty-five or twenty-six, but it's hard to say now."

"Have you considered whether or not you want children after marriage?"

"I haven't thought about that question yet."

Nelson fired off a series of meaningless questions like a machine gun, making Li Ang couldn't help but ask, "Are you a matchmaker from a marriage agency?

Are you asking so specifically so you can offer me a 1-minute registration, a lifetime of happiness, one-on-one matchmaker service, and precise positioning of love?"

A burst of laughter rang out from below the stage.

Nelson helplessly raised his hands and said, "I don't want to ask either, but I can't help it, this is what's printed on the cards."

He sighed, muttering to himself, "I swear, if the next question is still so boring, I'm going to kick the butts of those scriptwriters."

After saying that, Nelson drew another card, his eyes lighting up when he saw the content.

"At some point in your life, have you ever experienced a world-weariness so severe that you wanted to commit suicide?"

"Yes."

"After experiencing that world-weariness, the thing that supported you to keep living and constantly striving to learn new skills, was it the emotion of revenge?"

Finally, it's here.

Li Ang sighed inwardly and said calmly, "Yes."

"Before possessing extraordinary power, were you involved in any homicide cases?"

"Yes."

"Did you disguise those cases you committed before possessing extraordinary power as accidental scenes, in order to escape capture and trial?"

"Yes."

"Did any of the victims in these cases of yours elicit even a trace of sympathy from you?"

"No."

"Have you ever felt even a trace of shame for committing these cases?"

"No."

"Were those people who were killed before you possessed extraordinary power, your nominal relatives?"

"..."

Li Ang fell into a brief silence.

He sat upright in the chair, his head lowered, his hands crossed, supporting his chin, as if deep in thought.

Miss Chai subconsciously held her breath. At this moment, she desperately wanted to burrow into the Soul-Guiding Banner, not hearing anything that was happening outside.

"Yes."

Li Ang's voice was weak, yet clear.

Gasps of surprise rippled through the audience, but Nelson didn't give this show any time to pause, swiftly drawing a card and quickly reading it aloud.

"Is the woman you call 'mother' still alive?"

"..."

Li Ang slowly raised his head, looking at Nelson, smiling and saying, "You know, this is the second to last question, right? After answering two more questions, I'll have cleared the game."

"I know."

Nelson maintained an amiable smile. "Just as I introduced,

if you win the 'Truth Hour' game, I will not only let you pass through this house, but also directly give you a gift that you currently desire the most."

Li Ang said indifferently, "Is this gift a person, or an object?"

"I cannot say."

Nelson swayed his body and said, "The one who decides what kind of gift to give is the House of Sincerity, not me. After all, I'm just an ordinary butler and show host,

and I don't have the qualifications to tell the House of Sincerity what to do.

Considering that lies are not allowed within the House of Sincerity, you can believe my words."

Li Ang shook his head, not rushing to answer, and said softly in his heart, "Chai Chai..."

"Yes, I'm here."

Miss Chai quickly said.

"..."

Li Ang was silent for a while, and ultimately didn't say anything to Chai Cuichiao.

He raised his head, looked at Nelson, and said calmly, "She is still alive."

"Then,"

Nelson looked at the card and asked, "Do you plan to kill that woman you call 'mother' in the future?"

...

Li Ang grinned, his fingers gently tapping on the armrest of the seat, as if a switch had been flipped, becoming calm and unhurried.

Miss Chai, hidden within his body, felt a shuddering impulse as she looked at Li Ang's smiling face.

She swore that this was the first time she had seen Li Ang reveal this kind of expression.

A pure, unconstrained, heartfelt, happy smile.

This smile filled Chai Cuichiao with a genuine sense of fear.

She seemed to see Li Ang's true face hidden beneath his human skin.

"Yes."

Li Ang nodded. "The only purpose that supports me to live until now,

is to kill that woman I call 'mother' in the future."
