Josh instinctively looked in his direction, recalling the scene she had just witnessed.

While other gods might be forged in the "God Creation Game," she knew that wasn’t the case for the person in front of her. He was born from the energy of the interstellar explosion.

Chenyu stared into her eyes, squinting slightly, "Josh, what are you thinking about?"

Josh instinctively sensed the danger, quickly leaning back, "I wasn’t thinking about anything."

She almost immediately confirmed that Chenyu had seen through her thoughts.

Chenyu suddenly leaned in, his gaze sharp, "Did you see my past in the time-space turbulence just now?"

Josh showed a look of confusion, "What time-space turbulence? I felt like I was in space just now, surrounded by darkness with countless stars passing by. I don’t know anything else."

"Is that so?" Chenyu’s gaze softened.

Josh secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking she had probably fooled him.

Chenyu suddenly pressed closer, pinning her to the bed, "Josh, do you know why a god is a god? Because no one can lie in front of me."

Josh met his dark gaze, thinking this isn’t good in her heart.

She turned to run, but Chenyu grabbed her hands.

"Under the Judgment Skill, no one can lie in front of a god!" Chenyu’s eyes were dark, like an abyss that could pull someone in.

Upon hearing the Judgment Skill, Josh felt it sounded familiar.

Did Yuze have a similar skill too?

He seemed to have mentioned it to her.

Could two different people possess the same skill?

Chenyu gripped Josh’s neck, "Little one, let me guess, how many of my secrets do you know?"

Josh dared not move recklessly; Chenyu’s power was too terrifying. Even with just a slight move, she was already weak, dizzy, and unable to break free.

If her powers were fully restored, she might resist a bit, but now she was just at a Nascent Soul level.

Her powers were severely depleted, and she hadn’t meditated to recover, leaving her energy insufficient...

Chenyu stared at her, "Why aren’t you speaking?"

His gaze moved from her face to his hand, then he slightly frowned, releasing his grip, "Sorry, I was too ungentlemanly. Did I scare you?"

As he spoke, he helped her up from the bed and even considerately placed a pillow behind her back.

Josh was about to think he was suffering from a split personality.

He clearly wanted to kill her just now, so why did he suddenly change?

Josh pressed her lips together, quietly observing his condition.

Chenyu softened his voice, with a hint of a smile in his eyes, "Good child, tell me, what did you see in my world? Did you learn the secret between Yuze, the Mermaid King, and me?" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Josh remained expressionless but was quickly calculating in her mind how to handle the situation.

Chenyu had an absolute Judgment Skill; she couldn’t answer his questions, or else she would be exposed for lying in an instant.

But not answering...

A sudden light flashed in her eyes, and she clutched her head, "A headache... what’s happening to my Spiritual Sea?"

Chenyu’s eyes flashed, and his voice became even more gentle, "Josh, I am out of patience, so I’ll ask once more, did you see?"

The surrounding air pressure dropped to freezing point in an instant.

Josh sat on the bed, senselessly feeling a cold wind blow past.

She knew Chenyu was running out of patience.

Diverting attention didn’t seem like a good tactic either.

Is there really no other way?

To divert attention, she must ensure he is genuinely interested in the topic...

Josh’s gaze flickered, and she suddenly said, "I saw... the Mermaid King in your Spiritual Sea, and just heard Yuze’s voice. Did he come here looking for me?"

She made a hasty response.

His Judgment Skill could only determine truth from lies, but it couldn’t judge if she had fully disclosed everything.

As long as Chenyu didn’t stubbornly press further...

Chenyu stared at her for a moment, "You saw the Mermaid King?"

Josh secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking she had probably fooled him. She shook her head, "Actually, not really; I just heard the Mermaid King’s voice, just after you and Yuze finished talking, that’s what I heard."

Chenyu relaxed, "That’s all you heard... that’s fine, rest for now. Once your Spiritual Sea stabilizes, I’ll send you back later. Tomorrow is fine; you’ve already advanced in the game, so there’s no rush."

Josh nodded, "Okay."

Chenyu left the bedroom.

Once he left, only Josh was left in the room.

She didn’t dare to let her guard down, silently breathing a sigh of relief in her heart, at least she managed to get through this...

However, Chenyu gave her a very strange and contradictory feeling.

Sometimes, she thought he seemed like a good person, other times he felt like a bad one.

Sometimes good, sometimes bad, completely unpredictable.

She raised her hand, wanting to send a message to Yuze, only to find her Smart Brain missing, and likewise discovered that her clothes had been changed...

Josh couldn’t help but cover her face, "What is happening here..."

The room was silent, and as Josh was about to lie down, she suddenly tensed her body again.

Wait!

Chenyu completely didn’t feel assured with her, he was just still testing!

Josh suddenly sat up, pulling the covers aside to get out of bed.

She had to run!

In the main hall.

Chenyu was mixing a reagent.

The Mermaid King beside him changed his expression, "What are you doing?"

Chenyu: "She already knows my secret."

The Mermaid King’s pupils suddenly contracted, "Are you going to kill her?"

Chenyu’s hand paused, "Rest assured, I won’t, but..."

I’m just going to erase her undesired memories.

The Mermaid King saw the components in his reagent mix gradually deviating from what he feared in his heart, and finally relaxed.

As long as it’s not killing her, anything else is negotiable.

Chenyu finished preparing the reagent, looked at the person beside him, "Guess, will I make her forget everything, or just a part?"

The Mermaid King looked at him, "If you make her forget everything, then all the work you’ve done would be meaningless. Letting her fall in love with Yuze, wasn’t that your backup plan?"

Chenyu chuckled without refuting.

The potion in the bottle in his hand flowed, emitting a faint light.

He threw the reagent out.

The reagent turned into a white mist as it hit the air, drifting outward.

On the other side.

Josh was meditating and recuperating in the room.

The temple was located in the area on Layena Star with the most concentrated Spiritual Energy, and she wasn’t going to waste taking advantage of such good resources.

Spiritual power continuously approached her, slowly forming a cyclone.

The white mist mixed in, quickly getting close to Josh and was inhaled by her.

Unbeknownst to her, Josh suddenly opened her eyes, detecting something unusual, but it was too late.

She completely lost consciousness, slumping to the side.

When she woke up again, she was still a little dazed.

"Where am I...?"
