Night.

land.

——Away from the sea, a human world with countless skyscrapers.

The bustling city is illuminated by neon lights.

The top floor of a restaurant.

In the box.

A proud middle-aged man is talking.

When he spoke, everyone else acted as if they were all ears and didn't even dare to say a word.

Only after he finished speaking did anyone dare to join in the fun. Some wore high hats, some laughed and clapped their hands, and some nodded like garlic.

When he lost interest in giving advice, he shifted his gaze to the two beautiful women in the banquet——

The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous.

——No matter what, as long as you want to survive in this industry, you must listen to him.

At this moment.

There was a flash in the sky, and an orangutan and a pheasant suddenly appeared.

The weird thing is.

They are invisible to everyone present.

In fact, they were the ghost soldiers that Wu Xiaode had just sealed.

"which one?"

the orangutan asked, looking around.

"This." Pheasant looked at the book of life and death and pointed at the man holding the moon among the stars.

"How long is your life span?" the orangutan asked.

"Let me see - there are 40 seconds left." Pheasant said.

The orangutan suddenly panicked and couldn't help but said:

"What should I do? This guy seems to be in good health. There are no bad lucks here, and there are no disaster stars that harm people. How can I seduce his soul?"

Pheasant glanced at the table and saw a plate of braised chicken with potatoes on the table. He couldn't help but feel furious and urged:

"Hurry! If you can't kill him, he will be taken away by the paradise when the time is up."

The orangutan was furious when he heard this, and cursed: "They can arrange their own destiny at will? Bah! Brother Chicken, lend me some power from the underworld."

"Here!" The pheasant boldly put its wings on the orangutan's back.

The orangutan gained the support of the other party and immediately became energetic. He held seals with both hands and shouted:

"Please ask for the magical weapon - the soul-destroying knife!"

Countless ghostly runes materialized from its handprints, condensing out of thin air into a dark and lightless sword with a ghost head.

The orangutan grabbed the handle of the knife and asked, "How much time do we have?"

"Wait for me to shout." Pheasant said.

The orangutan walked behind the middle-aged man and raised the soul-killing knife high.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Pheasant shouted loudly:

"time up!"

The soul-destroying knife fell immediately.

Strangely enough, the knife penetrated the middle-aged man's body directly without causing any harm to him.

Boom.

The middle-aged man was about to grab the hand of a woman at the table when he suddenly leaned forward, bumped his head on the table, and stopped moving.

Everyone was shocked.

Those who help give help, those who call for help call for help, and those who call for an ambulance call for an ambulance.

The orangutan and pheasant were very calm.

Pheasant touched the book of life and death and quickly wrote:

"The time of death is the third quarter of Xu Shi; the cause of death is full of evil; the method of death is cerebral blood vessel burst——"

"Sure, I'll go back and deliver the errand first, and you'll come back later."

The orangutan muttered a few words, grabbed a handful of iron ropes and threw them at the man. Then he pulled out the middle-aged man's soul.

"Who are you!" the middle-aged man shouted in shock and anger.

The pheasant flapped its wings, flew up, hooked its claws on the iron rope, passed through the house and disappeared.

The soul of the middle-aged man was tied to the iron rope and taken away directly.

Only the orangutans remain.

The word "Ghost Soldier" engraved on its belt emits a burst of blue will-o'-the-wisps.

This means that it has completed the soul seduction and accumulated another merit.

The orangutan naturally saw it and felt a little happy. He looked at the people at the table for a while and said to himself:

"There are really some good seeds."

"You have been accumulating evil more and more, and the time is almost up."

As if sensing something, the orangutan suddenly looked up.

But he saw a thin pipe emerging from the void and thrusting towards the middle-aged man's body.

"Hahahaha, you're late!"

The orangutan laughed loudly, pointed his middle finger towards the pipe, then shook his body and slowly disappeared through the wall.

…

Outside a huge door.

"Mr. Xiaowu, please draw a card."

A beautiful woman stood in front of the door and said with a smile.

She has a thick stack of cards in her hand.

"What kind of card is this? Why do we need to draw cards?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Your strength has been recognized by the masters in the paradise, and you will soon gain the authority to control life and death. From now on, you will also be a member of the paradise."

"By drawing cards, you will gain your status in the paradise. This is the rule." The woman said.

"What if I don't want to be a member of the paradise?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"You will never be like this - you should know that once you join the paradise, you can enjoy true eternal dignity from now on."

The woman continued to explain: "Each of your reincarnations will be properly arranged for you. You will be a member of the ruling class forever and ever, with glory, wealth, and happiness in the world, and will always be around you."

"But if you insist on being an enemy of Paradise, you are an enemy of the force of the entire world."

"In that case, you will die sooner or later."

"When you die, there is nothing."

"You have no autonomy over what you will be assigned to do in your next life."

"So please draw the cards."

"——This is your only chance to change your destiny, please cherish it."

Wu Xiaode sighed and said, "Let me see what cards there are."

He twitched casually.

A black and white Joker card appeared in his hand.

"Congratulations, you will be given the nickname 'Clown' and can walk and exist in the paradise from now on," the woman said.

She turned into a ball of light and gradually disappeared.

The card spread out with a "bang" and turned into a clown suit, covering Wu Xiaode directly.

Colorful patterns also appeared on his face.

clown!

My identity in the paradise turned out to be a clown!
