On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Chapter 1227 Turning the World Upside Down

Looking at Lin Zhen, the old man with the chessboard looked at him with a look of shock and bewilderment, as if he were looking at a monster. For the first time, the cynical smile in his cloudy old eyes was gone.

He had lived for over a thousand years and believed that everything in this world was within his calculations, but there was one young man before him whom he could neither see through nor accurately predict.

"You brat..." Chess Buddha's voice was terribly hoarse. He shook the dirty gourd in his hand, took a big gulp, and then slowly said, "What exactly are you?"

"Senior is too kind. I am Lin Zhen, the Regent of the Great Qian Dynasty. That's all." Lin Zhen had a faint smile on his face, as if the earth-shattering "deal" just now was just a trivial matter mentioned casually.

"Hmph, don't try to fool me with those empty words." Chess Buddha curled his lip, his deep eyes falling once again on the black crystal in Lin Zhen's hand. "You really think you can negotiate with me with such a little thing?"

"This junior wouldn't dare," Lin Zhen said, maintaining his humble yet assertive demeanor. "This junior simply feels that this thing might be of some use to you, senior."

"Use?" The Chess Buddha sneered. "I've been playing in the mortal world for over a thousand years. What treasures haven't I seen? This thing is peculiar, but it's not enough to tempt me."

"Is that so?" A sly smile curved Lin Zhen's lips. "What if I told you that this 'Stone of Nothingness' is not a product of this world?"

These words, like an invisible thunderbolt, struck the Buddha of Chess and Cards instantly on the top of his head!

His disheveled old face froze once more. His cloudy eyes widened suddenly, staring intently at Lin Zhen, his gaze filled with unbelievable horror!

"You...what did you say?!"

“This junior says,” Lin Zhen said clearly, word by word, “that this thing, like this junior, comes from another world.”

"A higher-dimensional world with a technological level far exceeding that of this era."

"And the so-called 'Nihilism Party' has a purpose that is far more than just to carry out some so-called 'purification' and destruction in this world."

"Their real goal is to break down the 'barrier' between the two worlds and let their world completely descend into our world!"

"At that time, let alone us mortals, even you, a land immortal who has lived for thousands of years, will probably not escape the fate of being completely wiped out by a higher-dimensional civilization through a dimensional reduction attack!"

Lin Zhen's words were like a heavy hammer, slamming into the heart of the chess and card Buddha, who thought he had long seen through the world and was as calm as a still pond!

He was completely dumbfounded.

He stared blankly at the young man before him, who was calmly revealing a tremendous secret to him that was enough to overturn his understanding of things for thousands of years.

He felt his mind buzzing and going completely blank.

A higher-dimensional world? Dimensional reduction attack?

Although he couldn't understand these words, he could feel an unprecedented, chilling fear from the depths of his soul in Lin Zhen's extremely solemn tone!

For the first time, he realized that all the knowledge and control he had built up over the past thousand years regarding this world was so laughable and vulnerable in the face of this "variable" from another world.

Murong Yan, standing to the side, was also terrified. Although she didn't quite understand terms like "dimension" or "dimensional reduction," she could clearly sense that her husband was playing a game of chess—a game of unimaginable scale! And the outcome of this game would directly determine the life or death of their world!

She instinctively gripped Lin Zhen's arm tightly.

The Phoenix Descent Dress she wore, her only nightgown, seemed to sense her inner tension and unease.

The deep black of the Suzhou brocade stood out starkly against the desolate Gobi Desert, appearing exceptionally profound and oppressive. The colossal phoenix embroidered with pure gold thread had its eyes wide open, filled with vigilance, as if it were facing this impending, unknown, and immense crisis alongside her.

"You..." It took a long time for the Buddha of Chess and Cards to recover from the immense shock. His voice was hoarse beyond recognition, "What you said... is it all true?"

"I never speak recklessly," Lin Zhen said calmly.

The Buddha remained silent.

His deep eyes were fixed on Lin Zhen, as if trying to see right through his soul.

After a long while, he slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

A bitter smile, more painful than crying, appeared on that disheveled old face.

"Hehe...hehehe...interesting, really interesting."

"I have lived for over a thousand years and thought I had long since transcended the Three Realms and was no longer bound by the Five Elements. But I never expected that in the end, I would still be drawn into such a life-and-death game that even I cannot understand."

He shook his head, took another big gulp of wine, and then said in a tone full of helplessness and self-mockery, "Speak, kid."

"What do you want me to do for you?"

He knew he had no choice.

From the moment he learned the truth about this world, he and Lin Zhen, that mad dog, were already tied to the same sinking pirate ship.

He could either watch helplessly as the ship was swallowed up by the monstrous waves from another world.

The only option is to follow this mad dog and join him in completely overturning that raging storm!

“It’s very simple.” A triumphant smile finally appeared on Lin Zhen’s face. “This junior would like to invite the senior to accompany my wife and me on a trip to Japan.”

"Go to Japan?" Chess Buddha was taken aback. "Why would you go to that tiny, godforsaken country?"

"Of course we're going to find a glimmer of hope for our world, which is about to sink." A cunning, devilish light gleamed in Lin Zhen's eyes.

“Japan has the three things we need most right now.”

"First, money."

"Secondly, people."

"The third and most important point."

"A gigantic, flesh-and-blood millstone, large enough to draw the attention of the entire world!"

"This junior... would like to ask the senior for help in finding that legendary giant silver mine."

"And help us find that one and only glimmer of hope in this seemingly hopeless game!"

The Buddha listened quietly, his cloudy old eyes gleaming with an increasingly bright light.

He looked at the man before him, a peerless madman who, despite being in dire straits, still dared to defy fate, using the entire world as a chessboard to boldly declare war on an unknown higher-dimensional civilization.

That cold heart, which had been dormant for thousands of years, began to beat violently and uncontrollably once again at this moment!

"Haha...hahahaha!"

He suddenly tilted his head back and let out a deafening laugh filled with boundless madness and unbridled pride!

"Well done! Well done! Using the world as a chessboard! Well done! A peerless madman who defies the heavens!"

"Lin Zhen, you madman, I like you!"

"So what if we go to Japan and flip the table?"

"Count me in!"

"I'd like to see what kind of earth-shattering twist you can pull off in this game where the outcome is already predetermined!"

He suddenly slammed the gourd in his hand onto the ground!

Then, he strode up to Lin Zhen and Murong Yan, his cloudy old eyes filled with a desperate, mad, and resolute determination!

"go!"

"I'll keep you two company, you lawless little couple!"

"Go and turn this son of a bitch's world upside down!"
