Started with maxed-out merit, everyone in the primordial world is my connection

Chaos, Zixiao Palace, the main hall.

Qin Ye's eyes blurred, and then he found that the environment around him had changed. What came into view was Hongjun, who was sitting on a futon on the high platform.

With just one glance, the presentation of Dao traces and divine charm made Qin Ye understand that the one on the high platform was indeed Hongjun.

To be precise, it was Hong - the First Saint of the Primordial World - the Spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao - the Dao Ancestor - the Big Boss of the Primordial World - Jun!

Even if the aura on his body was restrained, even if there were no visions or wonders appearing on his body, Qin Ye could still feel the unfathomable and elusive feeling emanating from Hongjun.

It was as if the entire Primordial World was in his palm, as if he was the absolute center of the Primordial World, the uncrowned master. Even the Great Dao seemed unable to approach him in the slightest.

"Junior Qin Ye, pays respects to Dao Ancestor!"

Without hesitation, Qin Ye directly knelt down and shouted.

The arrogance of a transmigrator? The dignity of a modern person?

They don't exist.

Do you really think this is a novel? Still acting self-importantly? Qin Ye only has a useless system.

Dignity is worthless in the face of life. A true man knows when to yield and when to stand tall. He believes that anyone from his past life would make the same wise choice in his current situation.

"There's no need to kneel. This Daoist doesn't think you're the type who likes to kneel. Sit down and chat with this Daoist."

Hongjun, with the face of a child and the hair of an old man, looking like an immortal sage, said with a faint smile on his face, speaking gently.

As if his words were law, a futon appeared next to Qin Ye as soon as Hongjun finished speaking.

"Thank you, Dao Ancestor."

Qin Ye shouted again, cautiously sitting on the futon.

"Dao Ancestor, this junior has something to offer you."

Without waiting for Hongjun to ask, Qin Ye took the initiative to say.

"Oh? What is it?"

Hongjun said with interest.

"Primordial Flow Novels."

Qin Ye said word by word.

Yes, Primordial Flow Novels!

Showdown?

It was a showdown!

Qin Ye didn't care about the so-called foreknowledge gained from referencing Primordial Flow Novels. This is reality, not a novel. Moreover, with his appearance, everything would change.

Hongjun's face changed, his eyes narrowed, and his eyelids twitched. He looked at Qin Ye in disbelief, and then immediately waved his hand to seal the entire Zixiao Palace.

"This Daoist underestimated your courage. Little fellow, you have a big ambition."

Hongjun said with a sigh, and then slowly said, "Let's drop this matter and not mention it again. Little fellow, do you have anything else to say?"

"? ? ?"

Qin Ye's expression froze, he lowered his head, his pupils shrank, and a look of surprise and uncertainty appeared in his eyes.

Drop it?

Don't mention it again?

Just now, there were fluctuations of Qi. Hongjun seemed to have sealed the Zixiao Palace. What's going on!?

Could it be...

"Hehe, this Daoist hasn't been exposed to novels before, so I don't understand them, but I can understand the general meaning. It must be a term from the realm you once lived in."

"Since you have mentioned Primordial Flow Novels, then you should know the Primordial World very well. In that case, you can guess, what is the Great Trend of the Heavenly Dao? Where does the so-called destiny come from?"

As if guessing what Qin Ye was thinking, Hongjun chuckled lightly and said meaningfully. Then, Hongjun added a sentence: "In front of this Daoist, there's no need to lower your head. This Daoist can't hide your thoughts. Just communicate with this Daoist normally."

"......"

Qin Ye.

"Damn it, so the tribulations and evolutions of the Primordial World are really scripts, all arranged by Hongjun or the Heavenly Dao long ago? Is this the origin of destiny?"

"Does that mean that foreknowledge and understanding of Primordial Flow Novels are meaningless?"

Qin Ye's teeth ached.

He knew that referencing Primordial Flow Novels would be meaningless. Fortunately, he exposed himself early, otherwise he wouldn't even know how he died. Everything was arranged by the Heavenly Dao or Hongjun. Who could withstand that?

Damn it, the depths of this Primordial World can't be described with just the word 'deep'. Fortunately, he knows his own limitations.

Qin Ye is curious about how those transmigrators can play around and be awesome in the Primordial World. Is this the difference between reality and novels?

"Don't casually say some things outside. This Daoist can tolerate you, but the Heavenly Dao may not tolerate the existence of such an anomaly."

Hongjun said calmly.

"Yes, Dao Ancestor's teachings are etched in this junior's heart."

Qin Ye restrained his emotions and said respectfully.

"You've revealed so much in front of this Daoist, and you've even taken the initiative to come to this Daoist. Aren't you afraid that this Daoist will be unfavorable to you or covet you? Aren't you afraid that this Daoist will search your soul?"

Hongjun said with interest.

"Dao Ancestor is an extraordinary person, how could he be unfavorable to this junior."

"Your legends are still widely circulated even in the world where this junior once lived. This junior's admiration for you is like a滔滔river, endless."

"You are this junior's idol, this junior's faith, this junior's lifelong pursuit."

"If you need this junior to do anything, this junior will not hesitate and will do his part. Why would you need to take action, Dao Ancestor? If you need this junior's memories, this junior will take the initiative to offer them."

"To be honest, this junior is always amazed and admires your growth history whenever I see it."

"In the past, the beast emperor Shen Ni wreaked havoc in the Primordial World. It was because of you that the order of the Primordial World could be restored from chaos."

"During the Dragon-Han Tribulation, the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans enslaved all living beings. It was because of you that the three clans were able to submit."

"During the Dao-Demon War, the Demon Ancestor attempted to destroy the world. It was also because of you that all living beings were able to survive."

"It was you who brought the Immortal Dao to the Primordial World, and it was because of you that all living beings were able to take a step closer to the Mixed Origin Great Luo Golden Immortal. It was also because of you that the Primordial World was able to usher in the true destined protector!"

Qin Ye's expression turned serious, he looked up at Hongjun and said with a solemn and impassioned tone.

"......"

Hongjun.

You have to say, you really have to say, Qin Ye's flattery... Hongjun has really never seen it before.

Especially this kind of specific flattery is different from mindless flattery. He also specifically pointed out every major event of his, which just hit Hongjun's heart.

Not only that, Hongjun could sense that Qin Ye was indeed in awe and admiration of him. These were not lies, but sincere words. Hongjun was even more satisfied.

Confirming his gaze, this little guy is indeed an interesting person. A hint of appreciation appeared in Hongjun's eyes.

However......

"The reason why you weren't afraid of this Daoist being unfavorable to you when you first appeared in front of this Daoist is because you have the merits of the Heavenly Dao on your body, and this Daoist, as the spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao, needs to abide by the rules of the Heavenly Dao, so you have some certainty that this Daoist can't attack you."

"Or rather, the person who is least likely to attack you in the entire Primordial World is this Daoist."

"And you need a backer now, so you decided to take a gamble, and you have this confidence."

"As for soul searching, you are indeed prepared to have your soul searched by this Daoist."

"And the reason why you have the confidence is because you are confident in showing your value, so that this Daoist is willing to invest in you."

"Furthermore, you think that this Daoist wants to refine the Heavenly Dao and become the true master of the Primordial World, so he needs a pawn."

"And you are confident that you can make this Daoist willing to choose you as a pawn, so you dare to come to this Daoist."

"The respect for this Daoist is true, but this respect is because you think that this Daoist's methods are very high and you want to learn from them, and your fear of this Daoist is also true. You think this Daoist is insidious and afraid that this Daoist will plot against you."

"The worship of this Daoist is also true, but this worship is because this Daoist is strong enough to control the entire Primordial World and become the strongest in the Primordial World."

"This is the worship of the strong. If someone else could do what this Daoist has done, you would also worship them."

With a calm expression and a faint smile on his lips, Hongjun looked at Qin Ye's sincere and earnest appearance and said unhurriedly.

Just as Qin Ye's expression froze, Hongjun changed his tone and said, "However, you are indeed a wonderful person. I don't care about your thoughts."

"This Primordial World of mine has never seen someone like you before. With you here, perhaps it can bring different changes to my Primordial World."

"Since you want to become a pawn and want a backer, if you can show enough value, this Daoist will be your backer, so what."

Qin Ye's spirits lifted, a look of joy appeared on his face, and he also breathed a slight sigh of relief in his heart.

The first step, done!

Pawn?

Qin Ye wouldn't have any grudges or unwillingness about being a pawn. This is not servility or him being a simp wanting to be a little brother, but self-awareness.

He can't rely on the system. He is a little brother now. What else can he be if he doesn't want to be a pawn? Not everyone can be a pawn, let alone Dao Ancestor Hongjun's pawn.

Only by being a pawn first can there be a possibility of becoming a chess player. If I were the number one in the world, that would be courting death. Novels can be brainlessly satisfying, games can be died in casually, but reality is different, and there is no second chance.

What's more, this is the Primordial World. Not to mention anything else, just how terrifying the person in front of him is, how outrageous his wisdom is, and how deep his city is, everyone who understands it understands it. Coming up and punching Hongjun and kicking the Heavenly Dao? Isn't that courting death?

Moreover, slowly grow as a pawn and slowly plot?

That's not necessarily!

As for Hongjun seeing through his thoughts, Qin Ye was not surprised, nor was he worried or uneasy.

This is already an open game. It depends on whose chips are more tempting. Nothing else matters.
