Starry sky, I can hear their secrets.

Katrina retorted rudely, "Hey, old man, don't you have any faith in me?"

Thankfully, the live stream has been shut down. If it had continued, the viewers would have been in an uproar.

They will discover that the already deceased Grand Duke Afrit and Katrina, among others, are standing perfectly intact inside the Eternal Fire Mansion.

This hoax fooled all the audience members, including the Pinocchio family, Katrina and her friends.

When everyone thought that the offspring of these flames had perished.

At this moment, Katrina and her companions miraculously appeared in Pinocone, carrying out the destructive will of the Grand Duke of the Underfire, which would definitely catch the Pinocone [Family] off guard.

Su Jinyan lowered his hand, his sharp, hawk-like eyes sweeping over Katrina and the others.

Katrina gently lowered the brim of her hat, avoiding his gaze.

Or am I just imagining things?

Why does the old man seem more imposing than before?

Su Jinyan said in a deep voice, "Everyone, as you can see."

"Harmony, pleasure, preservation, and memory are all our enemies."

"While we should not underestimate them, there is no need to take any targeted measures."

"No need to be arrogant, no need to be impatient. Enjoy the feast of Pinocchio, enjoy her invitation."

"No matter what happens, as long as you stand with me, we will have no enemies ahead of us."

Katrina was thrilled: "Ha, old man!"

"You're speaking with increasing force; it's really interesting."

Constantines said softly, "Katrina, you mustn't be rude to your father."

Su Jinyan instructed, "Do not reveal that we have formed an alliance with Mr. Su Jinyan."

"Children of Flame, unleash your skills on the stage called [Pinocone]."

“Our Lord will surely look upon us.”

Akash asked doubtfully, "But Father, I have a question."

"If you want to gain the attention of our benefactor, wouldn't forming an alliance with Su Jinyan be counterproductive?"

Su Jinyan sneered, spread his arms wide, and said with an arrogant and unrestrained expression: "Good question, Akash."

“Our benefactor is no longer Nanuk…”

“Nanook is insignificant. We have believed in Him for so many years and have never received His favor. I want to convert.”

"what?!"

Akash and the others all showed expressions of astonishment.

Constance was also stunned. You didn't even discuss such an important matter with me.

This bombshell news truly shocked their young minds.

Those who are family know their own situation. As children of fire, they naturally know how much Grand Duke Afrit of the Underworld craves the glance of the Lord of Destruction.

Yet this same fanatical believer, who had destroyed monarchs for years, changed his faith just like that.

Dubra began to ask, "Father..."

"Then, what kind of esteemed being should our benefactor be now?"

Su Jinyan said calmly, "The Star God of Joy—Aha."

These words shocked Constance and the others once again.

Dubra asked hesitantly, "Then what you said before about quenching the iron sickle with sulfur and bestowing pain upon [pleasure]...?"

Su Jinyan nodded: "That's right, it remains the same."

"At least on the surface, we must still be enemies of [Pleasure]."

"The more this is the case, the more it will please our benefactor."

Katrina asked, "Old man, you said I would use my anger to break open the treasury of [Storage] and melt down their gold."

"To create an image for our benefactor, that is to say, to create an image for the star god of joy, Aha?"

Su Jinyan asked calmly, "Is there a problem?"

Of course there are problems...

This is a very serious problem.

If it weren't for Hua Huo, disguised as Su Jinyan, standing right next to her, Katrina would have suspected that the old man had been possessed by Su Jinyan.

Su Jinyan's tone left no room for doubt: "Since there are no problems, then it's settled. Praise Aha."

Katrina and the others shouted against their will, "Praise Aha!"

Constance said softly, "Father, may I come with you for a moment?"

Su Jinyan happily followed Constance into the bedroom.

Constance explained, “The father was born in the fire of a thousand fires and believed that destruction was the supreme crown bestowed upon Tophart.”

“Your sudden change of faith could easily arouse suspicion from Katrina and the others.”

Su Jinyan smiled faintly: "Don't you think this is interesting, Miss Constance?"

Constance parted her lips slightly, grasped Su Jinyan's hands, and made her stance clear.

"Sir, I cannot agree with your approach. Perhaps I simply cannot comprehend the aesthetics of fools?"

"But no matter what happens, I will stand firmly by your side."

Fireworks bounced and hopped as she pushed open the door.

"Hey, little succubus, stay away from my little Suzi~"

"Are you thinking to yourself how to please Xiao Suzi so that you can take Huahuo's place in his heart?"

The answer is—impossible.

Constance smiled gently: "Miss Fireworks is joking."

"I was just explaining to the gentleman what might happen next."

"The Yonghuo Mansion has suffered heavy losses. If it wants to survive, it should sell off the assets stored in its warehouses in recent years."

"As the gentleman said, we don't need to rush; there's still some time before the Pinocone feast begins."

“If you trust me, sir, I will become your qualified agent and manage the Eternal Flame Mansion for you.”

"What do you say, Father?"

Su Jinyan said in a deep voice: "Trust those you employ, and don't employ those you don't trust."

“I’m really looking forward to seeing how you do, Constance—my best kid.”

Fireworks tugged at Su Jinyan's sleeve, pouting sweetly.

“Dad, from now on, I can be Constance too.”

Constance smiled faintly, as if she wanted to say something.

However, considering Hanabi's personality, Constance swallowed the words she wanted to say.

Constance knew very well that if she offended Huohua because of this, Su Jinyan would not help her.

Su Jinyan raised an eyebrow and said, "Little liar, if you like playing role-playing games so much..."

“Then you can stay here and continue to play their father—Grand Duke Afrit of the Underworld.”

Hanabi curled her nose and snorted, "No way."

"Playing the role of the Grand Duke of the Underworld is very interesting, but it can get boring after a while."

"Being by your side always brings new experiences and is always fun!"

Constance's beautiful eyes were piercing.

As Grand Duke of the Underworld commented, she was the most ambitious of the Fire's offspring.

Everything in the world has its own cause and effect. Alfredo orchestrated countless crises that led to the annihilation of life, all for the sake of gaining the attention of the Lord of Destruction, but this also led to his death.

Constantines had no desire to become the second Grand Duke of Hellfire.

Why choose the wrong path when there are better options available?

Su Jinyan picked up her phone and saw that it was a text message from Xing.

[Did you rummage through the trash today?: Little Su, when are you coming back? We were bullied by Fuyan (Pam is angry).]

[Lord Fu Xuan's dog: Who is Fu Yan?]

[Did you rummage through the trash today? That's a cunning and vicious creature. It's hard to explain in a text message; you'll understand when you get back.]

[Lord Fu Xuan's dog: It's so simple, just close the door and let Huanlong out. I'll take care of it when I get back.]

Fireworks puffed out her pretty face angrily: "Did Little Gray Hair send you that text message?"
