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

#232 - Chapter 232: Don't Argue with Fools

"Is that so?" Li Chenqiu raised his eyebrows and put his hand back down.

As they spoke, the two arrived at the entrance of the Snake-Human Tribe.

Li Chenqiu originally wanted to use the excuse of taking a stroll to check out the ghost ship's docking point, but Cao Jin firmly refused him.

"Don't do this kind of thing again in the future. Go back and rest!" Cao Jin waved his hand at Li Chenqiu.

Li Chenqiu smiled and nodded: "Okay, I won't do it again."

After separating from Cao Jin, Li Chenqiu went directly back to the hotel where he was staying.

Knock, knock, knock!

Li Chenqiu reached out and knocked on the door.

Inside the room, Xiang Nanzhi was hugging a bucket of popcorn, watching a palace drama from this world with rapt attention. Hearing the sound from the door, she didn't even turn her head and shouted, "Just leave the takeout at the door."

Knock, knock, knock!

"It's me, open the door," Li Chenqiu knocked on the door again.

"Huh?"

Xiang Nanzhi stopped what she was doing, quickly threw off the covers and got out of bed, and ran barefoot to the door, pressing her eyes to the peephole.

When she saw that familiar face, the corners of Xiang Nanzhi's mouth turned up: "Why don't you keep pretending?"

"What am I pretending about? Hurry up and open the door," Li Chenqiu said impatiently.

Click—

The door was opened.

Li Chenqiu pushed the door open and walked in, looking Xiang Nanzhi up and down.

A loose-fitting white nightgown, messy hair, and popcorn crumbs on the corners of her mouth, she looked so carefree.

"It seems I was released because of the Divine Marriage," Li Chenqiu thought to himself.

Before seeing Xiang Nanzhi, he thought that she had found a way to rescue him, but now it seemed that he had been overthinking it.

"Hey, weren't you locked up in jail? How did you get out again?" Xiang Nanzhi revealed an expression as if she saw through everything.

"I don't know why I was released."

As he spoke, Li Chenqiu took off his coat and lay down on the bed, exhausted.

"Keep pretending, keep pretending," Xiang Nanzhi folded her arms. "You're pretending so well, you almost made me believe it."

"Yes, I'm pretending. Actually, I wasn't locked up in jail at all. I just wanted to trick you," Li Chenqiu clapped his hands with a smile.

Xiang Nanzhi touched her chin, looking at Li Chenqiu suspiciously: "The sun is rising in the west. How come you're so... huh?"

Xiang Nanzhi's voice stopped abruptly. She narrowed her eyes and slowly moved her head closer to Li Chenqiu.

"What are you doing?" Li Chenqiu shrank back.

"You've been chosen too!" Xiang Nanzhi opened her mouth in surprise.

"Isn't it normal for me to be chosen? After all, you were..."

Li Chenqiu seemed to realize that he was being impolite, pursed his lips, and stopped talking.

"I was what?" Xiang Nanzhi asked curiously.

"Nothing," Li Chenqiu shook his head, changing the subject. "This afternoon, the Snake-Human Tribe will hold the first round of the Divine Marriage selection. I asked around earlier, and this selection is mandatory..."

"Okay, okay," Xiang Nanzhi waved her hand, holding her phone in front of Li Chenqiu.

On it was information about the Divine Marriage.

"Asking around? How old-fashioned! Can't you just search on your phone? I already knew everything you were going to say. Isn't it just mandatory teleportation?" Xiang Nanzhi looked at Li Chenqiu like he was a country bumpkin.

Li Chenqiu swallowed the second half of what he was going to say, calmly agreeing: "You're right, I'm too old-fashioned."

Xiang Nanzhi put her hand on Li Chenqiu's shoulder in surprise: "How come you've become so obedient today? Something's not right. You should be arguing with me!"

"I don't want to argue with you, because the book says, arguing with fools is foolishness," Li Chenqiu said calmly.

Xiang Nanzhi: (•_•)?

Snake-Human Divine City Football Field

The golden sunlight shone on the green lawn. The surrounding stands were packed, and the noisy discussions almost overturned the sunshade above. It was lively and extraordinary!

Although it was a football field, the people who came here were not here to watch football. This was the location of the first round of the Divine Marriage selection for the Snake-Human Tribe.

"Setting the location at the football field, what is the Snake-Human Tribe trying to do? Are they going to have a soccer match?"

"You never know. The selection methods for each Divine Marriage are different, all kinds of weird things. It wouldn't be strange if it was a soccer match."

"Who do you think can become the son-in-law of the Snake-Human Tribe?"

"I don't know about others, but Luo Xing from the Black Wind Tribe will definitely be able to do it. This person became a Third Realm cultivator at a young age, and he is also handsome. He will definitely pass the Divine Marriage selection!"

"Don't be so sure. Although Luo Xing is excellent in all aspects, he is only a collateral descendant of the Black Wind Tribe, and his Divine Ability is not very strong. He is far from Xiao Rulong of the Great Peng Tribe!"

"Come on, Xiao Rulong is just a rough man. He's useless except for his strength. I think Chen Yu of the Black Feather Tribe has a better chance."

"Chen Yu is indeed good. His appearance and strength are not bad, and he can master the arts of qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting at a young age. His intelligence must be very high."

The people in the stands were discussing fiercely.

Not far away, Li Chenqiu and Xiang Nanzhi were sitting side by side in the shade of the stands.

"Holding the Divine Marriage selection on a football field, it feels like it will be very interesting!" Xiang Nanzhi rubbed her hands excitedly.

Li Chenqiu glanced at Xiang Nanzhi lightly: "Don't forget what I said before."

"I know, I know, don't keep bringing it up," Xiang Nanzhi pouted.

"I'm afraid that you'll get carried away. The further this Divine Marriage selection goes, the more attention will be focused on individuals, which is not conducive to our actions. Moreover, this Divine Mark teleportation is too strange. It must be removed as soon as possible."

Xiang Nanzhi waved her hand impatiently: "Okay, I got it. Why are you like a broken record, repeating yourself over and over again!"

Li Chenqiu put his hand on Xiang Nanzhi's shoulder: "If you could make me worry less, I wouldn't repeat myself. Remember, don't be too flamboyant later. Find a chance to eliminate yourself quickly."

Xiang Nanzhi pointed her fingers to the sky, looking perfunctory: "Understood, sir."

At the same time, in the referee's room not far from here.

Zhu Yuan sat upright on the sofa, picked up his teacup, and took a sip: "How's the preparation going?"

Zhu Le, who was sitting beside him, said with a smile: "Father, don't worry, everything is prepared properly. We will definitely not let Jiang Huaijin have a chance to escape!"

Zhu Yuan nodded: "Tell me about your arrangements in detail. Let me see if there are any omissions."

Zhu Le opened his mouth to say something, but was stopped by Zhu Qicheng, who reached out to stop him: "Brother, just put your heart at ease. Xiao Le's work is definitely steady!"

"That's right. Since you've already entrusted this matter to Xiao Le, don't interfere anymore, brother."

"We watched Xiao Le grow up. Don't you, as his father, know how careful he is when he does things?"
