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

#367 - Chapter 366: The important thing is the style

At this moment, Li Chenqiu suddenly thought of his conversation with Xiang Nanzhi.

...

"Who's coming? Are they reliable?"

"I don't know, but they should be a little more reliable than me."

...

Li Chenqiu's mouth twitched: "You're really honest. A little more reliable means a little more reliable."

Looking at the surrounding menacing soldiers, he obediently followed their instructions, slowing his pace, like an old man taking a walk in the park, looking left and right, nodding occasionally.

"What an arrogant posture! He really doesn't know what's good for him!"

Kōhashi Meisei, following behind, glared with eyes full of murderous intent, as if wanting to tear Li Chenqiu into eight pieces.

The black-robed man said indifferently, "More than a hundred Destined Ones have fallen into this man's hands. He certainly has the right to be arrogant."

Hearing this, the faces of the people behind him turned ugly.

Losing more than ten of the Ten Forbidden Destined Ones and nearly twenty of the Nine Forbidden Destined Ones, although it wouldn't shake the foundation of the Kōhashi Conglomerate, it was definitely a major hemorrhage!

They would have to bear the responsibility for these deaths and injuries. If they obtained the Finishing Touch, it would be fine, but if they didn't obtain it and caused such a great loss to the Conglomerate...

It was estimated that the resources allocated to their branches in the future would be greatly reduced!

"We must obtain this section of the Finishing Touch!" Kōhashi Kaisei slowly clenched his fists, turning his head to look at the black-robed man: "Sir, when will that Thirteenth Forbidden make a move?"

"The time will come naturally. Just watch and don't ask too much."

"Okay." Kōhashi Kaisei nodded.

...

"We're about to leave the encirclement. Why isn't there any movement? Does it take this long to eat a starch sausage?"

Li Chenqiu puffed out his cheeks, pursing his lips speechlessly, then squatted down in front of everyone, pretending to tie his shoelaces.

The black-robed man behind him raised his arm, and everyone stopped.

One minute later.

Li Chenqiu was tying his shoelaces.

Two minutes later.

Li Chenqiu was still tying his shoelaces.

Three minutes later.

Li Chenqiu wasn't tying his shoelaces anymore. He started adjusting his trouser legs.

Everyone: (￣_￣|||)

Kōhashi Kaisei shouted impatiently, "Hey, are you going to leave or not? First tying your shoelaces, then adjusting your trouser legs. Are you going to fix your bangs next!"

"You reminded me."

Li Chenqiu stood up, supporting his knees, and took out a delicate pair of scissors from his pocket, cutting his thin bangs in front of Kōhashi Kaisei.

"You!"

Kōhashi Kaisei pointed at Li Chenqiu.

Li Chenqiu widened his eyes innocently and said, "Why are you glaring at me? I'm fixing my bangs, you're walking your path. Is there any conflict between the two?"

Kōhashi Kaisei's eyebrows shot up: "You're doing this on purpose, aren't you!"

"Idiot."

Li Chenqiu chuckled and continued to focus on cutting his bangs.

Kōhashi Kaisei glared at Li Chenqiu fiercely, leaned close to the black-robed man, and said, "Sir, has this kid discovered something?"

The black-robed man replied coldly, "Just watch and don't ask too much."

After a while, Li Chenqiu cut until there was no hair left to cut, and reluctantly walked forward. However, before he could take a few steps, he stumbled and fell to the ground, tripped by his untied shoelaces.

"Damn it, you really can't tie shoelaces in a bow. They come undone too easily!"

Li Chenqiu complained unhappily and continued to tie his shoelaces.

Everyone: (*^_^*)

Squatting on the ground, burying his head in the shadows, Li Chenqiu asked in a low voice, "Leader, are you done eating?"

"Everyone has their own shining points. Although Qianmian usually seems unreliable, this starch sausage is really delicious. The skin is charred, fragrant, and crispy. With one bite, the delicious meat juice explodes between the lips and teeth, making people..."

"Leader, are you done eating?"

"I'm done. Go forward. You don't need to hold back anymore."

Hearing this, Li Chenqiu raised his eyebrows, quickly tied his shoelaces, and got up to walk forward.

The black-robed man behind him said in a deep voice, "This person is about to enter the domain of that God-level Destined One. If a battle breaks out later, remember to get out of the way."

"Understood."

The others nodded solemnly.

Yang Luhe, who was at the very back, seemed to notice the change in atmosphere and raised his hand to stop the team: "Wait a moment."

Ying Jian asked, "Uncle Yang, what's wrong?"

Yang Luhe frowned: "Something... is not quite right."

Under everyone's gaze, Li Chenqiu stepped out of the encirclement, and there were no more fighter jets overhead.

The black-robed man's hunched back straightened slightly, reminding, "Everyone, scatter. Don't get close to me or that Awakened."

"Be careful, sir."

Kōhashi Meisei and the others followed the black-robed man's instructions and scattered.

Li Chenqiu, who was walking in front, naturally noticed this and tensed up, wary of any possible attacks.

Although the Underworld was protecting him, his life was his own, and he must never place all his hopes on others. That was irresponsible to himself.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

The cold wind was biting, and the pure white snow clearly reflected Li Chenqiu's long string of footprints.

"Why haven't they made a move yet?"

The black-robed man's words were tinged with doubt, and not only did he have this question, but Li Chenqiu also had it.

"Leader, didn't you say they were going to attack me? Why hasn't there been any movement?" Li Chenqiu asked in confusion.

"I didn't expect the guy behind you to be so patient."

"The guy behind me?" A hint of doubt flashed between Li Chenqiu's eyebrows: "You're waiting for this black-robed man to attack me?"

"What's wrong?"

Several large question marks popped up on Li Chenqiu's head.

From the beginning, he thought the other party wanted to use him as bait to lure out the Kōhashi Conglomerate's hidden intentions, then launch a counterattack and evacuate him from the Southern Federation.

But he didn't expect that, after all this time, the other party was waiting for the black-robed man to attack him first.

Li Chenqiu asked, "Leader, why are you waiting for this black-robed man to attack me first?"

"If he doesn't attack, how can I come to your rescue?"

Li Chenqiu's brain went into a brief shutdown: "Wait, can't you just save me directly?"

"Don't you watch movies? Rescuing people is all about timing, isn't it?"

"But... but this isn't a movie!"

"Is the movie important? What's important is the style. Rescuing people at the last moment is more likely to show my oppressiveness. Image is very important when you're out and about, especially for someone like me with high status and strength."

Six crows flew over Li Chenqiu's head.

"Stop walking, start running, run straight ahead."

"Okay."

Li Chenqiu nodded, and with a "bang," the snow beneath his feet exploded into a large pit, pulling out a green afterimage with the vine in the wind and snow.

The sudden acceleration startled everyone.

Bang, bang, bang—

Several sonic booms exploded in different locations, and afterimages stretched across the snow. The one rushing in the forefront was a black afterimage.
