This lunch gave "Nothingness" a new understanding of Lu Xiang.
To defeat an enemy like a phantom, she willingly returned to being a mortal at the cost of her own power, lurking in the unfamiliar "lower world" for decades.
For the residents of the upper world, spiritual energy is everything.
After all, not everyone can be like Song Lan, who could slack off and still advance at the same time; most of them have paid a long and painful price to get here, possibly spanning a lifetime.
Before that, they were no different from the "crickets" in the eyes of the upper world's inhabitants.
The subjects of mockery, puppets manipulated by the threads of fate, they needed not only unimaginable effort but also enough luck to survive the conflicts before they could grow.
In this regard, luck was particularly precious.
"Nothingness" had seen countless crickets with excellent qualities, who ultimately lost the chance to ascend to the upper world for reasons even he hadn't foreseen.
