Who wants to become a god? Aren't you all forcing me?

#541 - Chapter 540: Artificiality and Exaggeration

Although Nusha wasn't the brightest, it didn't mean he couldn't understand human speech. After listening to Lion Prime's explanation, he finally understood why Li Chenqiu was bowing.

Master wants us to go and die… Nusha stood there dumbfounded, a sense of indescribable sorrow welling up in his heart, so much so that his clear, bright eyes began to turn red.

At the end of the day, he was just an immature child. He had finally escaped from the small dark room where he had been locked up for hundreds of years, and now he had to go back. How could he possibly be happy?

But this unhappy state lasted only a few seconds.

Nusha rubbed his eyes, then waved his little hand, his childish face becoming firm: "So what if we die? It's not like we'll really die. Besides, we were able to come out thanks to Master's efforts. It's only right that he wants us to go back!"

No one spoke. The three people sitting at the dining table were all doing their own things, a silent protest.

Seeing this, Li Chenqiu took a deep breath, his expression becoming solemn, and said in a sincere tone:

"One year. If you die in this rescue operation, I will help you escape from the Seal God Scroll again within one year, and this time it will be the bodies of the Twelve禁, and it will be the Twelve禁 with the best physical qualities!"

As soon as these words came out, the people sitting at the dining table finally reacted, turning their heads to look at Li Chenqiu, their faces showing expressions of doubt.

Jing Cheng smiled and said lightly: "Are you overestimating yourself, or are you planning to fool us first?"

Li Chenqiu replied: "I can make a blood oath."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the three changed suddenly, and the suspicion in their eyes was replaced by surprise.

After finishing breakfast, Li Chenqiu drew a blood oath diagram in front of the four of them and made an oath. Only then did the three, except for Nusha, agree.

"Everyone, when you are besieging the Twelve禁, if the opportunity allows, can you let my soul soldiers get the last hit?" Li Chenqiu waved his hand and summoned Zhang Pingcheng, the strongest soul soldier at the moment.

"Okay." Lion Prime agreed without hesitation.

"Thank you."

A smile bloomed on Li Chenqiu's face.

...

In this era, a lot of information can be found online, such as Zhou Lian's family.

Zhou Lian was a direct descendant of the second generation of the Zhou Consortium. His father was the person in charge of the Zhou family's seventh branch. His status in the Zhou Consortium could be considered noble. He had a son named Zhou Tengfei, who was currently a sophomore at the War College.

Because he was an only child, Zhou Lian doted on Zhou Tengfei extremely, and this person was the target locked by Li Chenqiu.

"War College… If time permits, I'll secretly go and see Qi Mingyue. I hope he listened to what I said last time."

Li Chenqiu put his phone in his pocket, his figure swayed, and a gust of wind blew inexplicably in the wilderness. By the time the leaves fell, he had disappeared from the spot and headed towards City 107.

Unlike Star Plucking Academy, the War College was located in the city center of City 107 and was not detached from the city. With Li Chenqiu's full speed ahead, he arrived in City 107 near evening.

...

The wind in December was a bit chilly, but under the comfort of the setting sun, it wasn't freezing. There were still few people wearing down jackets and cotton coats on the street.

On the clean and tidy road, a girl with delicate features, wearing a simple white sweatshirt and a single ponytail, was walking alone with a lollipop in her mouth.

This person was Li Chenqiu after changing his appearance. The reason for becoming a girl instead of a boy was simple: for convenience.

As a member of the consortium and with his father as the vice minister of the Second District Disaster Management Department, Zhou Tengfei had such a dazzling identity that he could find out the other party's whereabouts by simply asking a sophomore.

And a beautiful appearance could make this process easier.

After arriving at the bottom of the sophomore boys' dormitory building, Li Chenqiu stopped a young man who didn't seem to be in a hurry and asked politely: "Hello, classmate, I want to ask you about someone. Is it convenient?"

"I don't…" The young man wanted to wave his hand and leave, but after seeing Li Chenqiu's sweet smile, he changed his words: "Not in a hurry, it's quite convenient."

"That's really great, thank you!"

Li Chenqiu took out an unopened lollipop from his arms, unwrapped it himself, and handed it to the young man's mouth, saying softly: "Please have a lollipop!"

"Uh… oh oh!"

The young man bit the lollipop with his mouth, and his ears began to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Li Chenqiu pulled the other party to sit down on a public chair.

The evening breeze was gentle, and the setting sun shone through the leaves, casting碎树影 on their faces. The boy was handsome and the girl had bright eyes and white teeth. It was a beautiful scene like an idol drama.

But unfortunately, that girl was actually a boy, and reality was so cruel.

Li Chenqiu blinked his watery eyes: "Do you know Zhou Tengfei?"

"Zhou Tengfei?"

Hearing that Li Chenqiu was asking about a male of the same age, a flash of disappointment flashed in the young man's eyes, but he still said truthfully: "I know him, what's the matter?"

Li Chenqiu's expression brightened, and he grabbed the young man's arm and said: "He borrowed something from me before, but he hasn't returned it. Because I don't have his contact information, I only know that he is a sophomore at the War College.

So I took the subway to this unfamiliar city, wanting to ask him for that thing in person. Can you take me to see him?"

The young man scratched his head, showing a look of embarrassment: "This… I have something to do tonight…"

"Please help me, I beg you, I only know you, brother, in this city."

Li Chenqiu blinked his eyes, looking pitiful, like a lonely flower in the snow, arousing a inexplicable desire for protection.

These were all the acting skills he had learned from watching some refreshing short dramas on the way, although they were a bit artificial and exaggerated, they were still very useful for dealing with boys who had just begun to feel love, such as the young man in front of him.

Seeing such a beautiful girl showing a weak and protective look in front of him, the young man's blood rushed up, and a heat spurted out from the top of his head.

"Okay, okay, then after finding Zhou Tengfei, can we have dinner together?" The young man pursed his lips and clenched his fists slightly.

"Of course!"

Li Chenqiu tilted his head, his eyebrows and eyes curved into a crescent shape, and his gentle eyes made the young man's heart flutter.

According to the young man, Zhou Tengfei was a very proud but also very generous person. Coupled with his prominent status, he naturally had a small group headed by himself in the War College.

And the place this small group liked to stay the most was a tavern located on campus - the Worry-Relieving Tavern!
