After I firmly rejected his request, the Sun Warrior Leader showed no sign of surprise; instead, he appeared remarkably calm. While savoring the delicacies before him, he said, "I anticipated your response, but don't rush to a decision just yet. Perhaps you should hear what I have to say before making up your mind." 0
 
"Just speak," I replied tersely, lowering my voice to soothe my parents, who were sitting beside me and seemed a bit agitated. 0
 
At that moment, the Sun Warrior Leader continued, "I know you are still troubled by my taking Xinzhu and the Divine Anomalies Classic from you. But have you considered what would have happened if I hadn't taken Xinzhu hidden within your friend? If it weren't for my intervention, you might have already lost your lives to Xinzhu." 0
 
"As for the Divine Anomalies Classic: Nine Star Life and Death Diagram, are you really sure that book is safe in your hands? Yes, I've done many harmful things, but if I hadn't done them, others in Yang Master would have. At least my actions are more restrained compared to theirs..." 0
 
"Stop pretending," I interrupted. "The news I've heard tells a different story. Yang Master was originally an organization dedicated to punishing evil and promoting good. It was your appearance that disrupted the entire Yang Master! The one who committed those heinous acts is you!" I pointed at the leader of Yang Master, my face contorted with rage. 0
 
The Sun Warrior Leader smiled helplessly and said, "I don't know where you got this information or if it's just your own speculation. But I must tell you that those so-called heinous acts you speak of were not committed by me; they were carried out by the Void Gods that you and Li Yu killed together!" 0
 
"In fact, Yang Master has long since fallen apart. Although those Void Gods originally belonged to Yang Master, their own greed and desires led them down an irreversible path. Some sought endless power; others sought revenge..." 0
 
"No matter their initial intentions, they are not as you imagine. And the spark that ignited all of this is you! Shen Xu!" 0
 
Hearing this, I was taken aback, as if a voice inside me kept questioning: "Is it me? How could it be me? I'm the victim here!" 0
 
Seeing my stunned expression, the Sun Warrior Leader continued, "I know you may not believe me right now, especially after witnessing me kill my own subordinate with my own hands. You won't easily trust me. But that's fine; you may not trust me, but surely you can trust your own father... right, Lao Shen?" 0
 
With that, the Sun Warrior Leader turned his gaze toward my father as if conversing with an acquaintance and flashed him a strange smile. 0
 
"Dad..." I turned to my father in disbelief and asked, "What is going on? Do you know something?!" 0
 
 
Hearing my question, my father fell silent, tears slowly streaming from the corners of his eyes, as if he was unwilling to confront the answer that lingered in his mind. 0
 
“Dad! Please tell me what’s going on! How did you get involved in this? Just tell me!” At this moment, my rationality no longer allowed me to analyze the situation logically; I just wanted to get an answer from my father as quickly as possible. 0
 
I grabbed my silent father and shook him urgently. Seeing this, my mother grasped my hand and said, “Son, don’t pressure your father. We both have responsibilities in this matter. Perhaps God King is right; it’s because of your presence that this series of disasters has occurred…” 0
 
“Why? Why is this happening? It can’t be true…” I slowly released my grip on my father's hand, staring in shock at my tearful father and mother, murmuring to myself, “I’ve been trying to save them all along. Why would these disasters come because of me? I’ve been trying to save them… It can’t be true… I just wanted to remove the mark on me; I just wanted to live a normal life.” 0
 
“Mom and Dad, there must be some mistake! You’ve definitely been deceived by that hypocritical Sun Warrior Leader. Don’t believe him!” I desperately resisted the fragments of past memories that surfaced in my mind. 0
 
Through the Supernatural Game, I met Hu Fang and Li Zhisheng. Some of them died tragically because they participated in the game. Later, I encountered Death Apostle, and then fell into a trap where dozens of innocent lives were lost. After that came Fengmen Village and a series of Onizuka incidents… 0
 
“It’s impossible! This cannot be because of me! Before I appeared, those Boxes and their contents already existed in the world. If there’s blame, it lies with the creators of the Boxes!” I slammed my hand on the table and stood up, pulling my parents’ hands. “Let’s go, Mom and Dad! We’re leaving!” I turned to leave. 0
 
At that moment, a sharp sound echoed through the room as something wooden was slammed heavily on the table by Sun Warrior Leader. 0
 
“Open the Box. Haven’t you always wanted to find the Third Box?” Sun Warrior Leader said calmly. “The Box is right here; I can give it to you.” 0
 
Upon hearing this, I halted my steps and turned back. There stood Sun Warrior Leader, holding a Box identical to the two I had seen earlier. 0
 
“I know you’ve been searching for the truth. The truth you want is now right before your eyes. Do you want it or not…” With that, Sun Warrior Leader tossed the Box toward me. 0
 
Seeing this, I instinctively caught it. In my hands, the exquisite patterns on the Box immediately caught my eye; however, this Box was not locked—it seemed to have already been opened. 0
 
 
Holding the Box, I gave it a slight shake, and I could hear faint clinking sounds from inside, as if a metal object had been placed within. 0
 
"Are you not going to open it and take a look?" the Sun Warrior Leader suggested softly. 0
 
At that moment, I was already wary due to multiple deceptions, unsure of what he was truly after. But it seemed he wasn't trying to deceive me this time. 0
 
"At this point, there's nothing to fear. The truth? Let me see for myself what you call the truth!" With that thought in mind, I grasped the lid of the Box, ready to open it. 0
 
Just then, my father suddenly raised his hand and slammed it down on the lid of the Box. With a look of sheer terror in his eyes, he said to me, "No, child! You cannot open it!" 0
 
In that instant, I noticed that on the back of my father's hand, where he touched the Box, a mark began to slowly appear—one identical to the one on my own hand. 0
