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

#539 - Chapter 538 Difficult!

“You…”

Lion Prime took a step back, clutching his hair, a deep sense of dread flashing between his brows.

Seeing his expression, Wrath Sand grinned triumphantly and said coldly, "I'll give you one last chance. Are you going to call him or not? Call him, and everything will be fine; don't call him, and you'll be as bald as an egg!"

"Okay, okay, I'll call him Master, alright!" Lion Prime said helplessly.

Low IQ, stubborn, and favored by Master, what could he do? He couldn't hit him, couldn't scold him, he could only indulge him!

Wrath Sand said in a commanding tone, "Call him now!"

Lion Prime turned his head and opened his mouth, "Master."

Wrath Sand looked displeased, "Master! Like me, shout louder!"

"You fu… Master!" Lion Prime slowly unclenched his fists and shouted in a rough voice.

Wrath Sand turned to look at Li Chenqiu, switching to a gentle tone, "Master, please respond."

Somewhat speechless, Li Chenqiu glanced at Lion Prime and ultimately chose to comply obediently, "Mm."

"Hehehe, Lion Prime, you did very well. If you don't want to become a bald egg, then please continue to maintain this!"

Wrath Sand nodded with satisfaction, then bent his knees and jumped back onto the coffee table, glaring at Mirror Clarity, "Lion Prime has already realized his mistake. Are you still going to resist?"

Tormented with a headache, Mirror Clarity smiled bitterly and said perfunctorily, "I'll call him, alright? Get down!"

After that, Mirror Clarity repeated Lion Prime's actions, and only then did Wrath Sand jump off the table and quiet down.

The hotel breakfast was delivered to the room at the appointed time, and the four of them sat around the dining table, eating and chatting.

"Li…" Lion Prime's voice suddenly stopped, and he changed his tone, "Master, have you figured out how to save him yet?"

Hearing this, Wrath Sand, who was burying himself in food, and Mirror Clarity, who was chewing slowly, both looked up.

Li Chenqiu stopped his movements and shook his head, "I haven't thought of anything yet. After Ghostly Haunt returns, I'll ask him about the situation and then carefully consider how to save him."

Ghostly Haunt was the third monster he resurrected. He wasn't strong, but he was good at hiding and sneaking.

Even when in someone else's domain, it was difficult for him to be discovered unless he did something to actively expose himself, making him very suitable for doing sneaky things.

After learning about Ghostly Haunt's abilities, Li Chenqiu asked him to help gather some information. The taciturn and solitary Ghostly Haunt neither agreed nor refused, but in the following days, he never appeared again.

"Ghostly Haunt?" Wrath Sand's face showed a look of astonishment.

Mirror Clarity and Lion Prime smiled but said nothing.

Li Chenqiu asked in confusion, "Is there a problem?"

"Master, isn't Ghostly Haunt eating with us?" Wrath Sand pointed to a young man who was drinking porridge.

The young man's face was as pale as snow, his eyes were dead and lifeless, and his thin lips were as cracked as a dried-up riverbed, as if his soul had been taken away. He sat there like an inanimate object, inconspicuous, making people subconsciously want to ignore him.

This person was Ghostly Haunt.

"Ah?"

Li Chenqiu's mouth opened slightly, and several large question marks popped up above his head.

There were only four people at the table, including himself, so how did it suddenly become five? Where did this Ghostly Haunt come from, and why didn't he notice him at all???

Countless doubts flooded his mind at the same time.

At this moment, Ghostly Haunt, who had finished drinking his porridge in one gulp, put down his bowl and, as if noticing Li Chenqiu's confusion, explained in a spine-chilling voice:

"My presence has always been relatively low. People who are too weak compared to me will have a hard time finding me if they don't look carefully."

"So… so that's how it is. You're really amazing." Li Chenqiu's mouth twitched slightly.

Your presence isn't just low, it's practically like you're invisible. No wonder you wouldn't be discovered even when you're in someone else's domain. It must be because people noticed you, but ignored you because your presence was too low.

"I almost forgot, Master is now a Nine-Forbidden. You can't find Ghostly Haunt if you don't look carefully!" Wrath Sand revealed a look of sudden realization and gave a thumbs up to his own intelligence in his heart.

Suppressing the emotions he shouldn't have, Li Chenqiu pushed away the food in front of him and asked expectantly, "Ghostly Haunt, what's the situation?"

Ghostly Haunt shook his head, "Difficult."

Li Chenqiu's heart sank, and the expectation in his eyes was slowly replaced by seriousness.

For someone whose strength was comparable to a Twelve-Forbidden to say "difficult", the difficulty of rescuing Li Ji… was conceivable!

Mirror Clarity frowned slightly and said unhappily, "Although the essence is condensed, you've condensed it too much!"

Ghostly Haunt glanced at her indifferently and continued, "After separating from you, I went to the Forbidden Disaster Zone where Li Ji was being held. I stayed there for two days and one night, figured everything out, and then left.

There were no less than ten Ten-Forbidden, five Eleven-Forbidden, three Twelve-Forbidden, and one existence suspected to be a Thirteen-Forbidden. This guy has been keeping his own domain open, guarding Li Ji."

Wrath Sand, acting like a little adult, rubbed his chin, "The others are fine, but this Thirteen-Forbidden… is a bit tricky!"

"Just a reminder, one of the three Twelve-Forbidden is a God-Blessed. One can beat the two of us without any problems. A one-on-one fight is bound to end in defeat. I estimate that among us, only Lion Prime can spar with that person."

Ghostly Haunt said coldly.

"Just those three Twelve-Forbidden can hold the four of us back. How are we supposed to save him?" Mirror Clarity slowly spread her hands, and a hint of imperceptible joy flashed in her alluring crescent eyes.

Among the four, apart from the mature and steady Wrath Sand who really wanted to rescue Li Ji, the other three had to agree because of Fu Yuesheng's orders, and they were unwilling in their hearts.

If this matter was easy to do and there was no danger, they would have no objection, but if this matter was very dangerous and there was a high probability of returning to the God-Sealing Scroll, they would be somewhat resistant, just like now.

"Li… Master, you've heard the difficulty of rescuing Li Ji. Would you like to hear my suggestion?" Lion Prime asked at Mirror Clarity's signal.

Li Chenqiu's eyes were gray and his fingers were tightly clasped together. He pursed his lips and nodded.

Lion Prime opened his mouth and said, "My suggestion is not to save him. It's not that we don't want to help you, but even if we take action, we can't save Li Ji from a Thirteen-Forbidden. There's no need to make a pointless sacrifice."

"I think so too, Master. Since the An Tong Division has decided to publicly purge Li Ji in the form of a live broadcast, they must have made complete preparations.

We are inferior to the other party in terms of strength, number of people, and weapons… There are less than three days left until December 15th. How can this gap be bridged in three days?" Mirror Clarity sat up and struck while the iron was hot.
