Chapter 43 Chapter 43 The Evil God's Self-doubt
Chi Shuangliu found that he had changed to a certain extent.
He paid more and more attention to her and became more and more concerned about whether she really liked him.
This change was like putting a chain around his neck, invisible and intangible but omnipresent. He gradually became anxious and tried to break free from the chain - even though he wanted to put a chain around Chen Run's neck at the beginning.
The way he changed was to become completely cold towards her. He cleaned the house, washed clothes and cooked for her with a cold face.
One day, instead of making steamed buns for Chen Run, he cooked a pot of porridge, which she hated the most. Seeing her drinking the porridge with a depressed look on her face, he felt very satisfied with himself.
Although he steamed a large pot of steamed buns in the evening, what did that have to do with Chen Run? He just wanted to eat it. Even if he only ate half of it and gave the rest to her, he was still letting her eat his leftovers.
Chi Shuangliu was very satisfied with the results of his abuse of Shen Run - he should hate her so much.
Cao Xun gradually took control of the Chinese branch of Sun Umbrella. He was busy running business all over the country these days. It was a few days late that he received the news that Lu Kuo had returned to China with several powerful people with special powers to take revenge on Chi Shuangliu. He was so scared that his heart almost stopped, and he quickly sent a message to greet Chi Shuangliu.
After learning that Chi Shuangliu was fine and Lu Kuo was not dead, he struggled for a long time, calling out Chi Shuangliu's name, asking if he could spare Lu Kuo's life.
——Although he hated the Lu family father and son for using him to take the blame and go to jail, Lu Kuo had indeed treated him as his own brother over the years, and the two of them did have some brotherly affection. After he was arrested, it was Lu Kuo who ran around and reduced his sentence from two years to nine months. He also took care of the prison to ensure that he could live a comfortable life during his sentence. After he was released from prison, it was Lu Kuo who single-handedly preserved his position in the company.
Of course, Cao Xun would not thank him for this. He was not a soft-hearted person in normal times, but they had been brothers for nearly thirty years, and he felt a little reluctant to let Lu Kuo die. Nine months in prison for a life was too much of a penalty.
After receiving Cao Xun's plea, Chi Shuangliu's eyes showed a hint of amusement.
He understood all the believers' thoughts and had no intention of paying attention to their meaningless requests, but for some reason, he suddenly thought of Chen Run.
——She was obviously very angry about being bullied, but after she learned that the store manager had both legs broken, she began to feel sorry for him.
Maybe his punishment method is really a bit cruel for humans?
Chi Shuangliu tilted his head and his expression fluctuated.
It was this slight change of mind that saved Lu Kuo's life. He stood up and took a step forward. He completely disappeared from the rental house and entered the high-dimensional space he created.
After being thrown into this space, several strong men invited by Lu Kuo died tragically from genetic diseases one after another. Lu Kuo was an ordinary person and was the least affected. However, this space had no time, no light, no smell, no sound, and he couldn't even sense whether he was still alive.
Lu Kuo became extremely neurotic here and even engaged in self-harming behavior, so that the moment Chi Shuangliu arrived, his expression and movements were dull and his brain was temporarily unable to respond.
Chi Shuangliu didn't give him time to react. He put one hand in his pocket and said leisurely, "I originally planned to destroy your soul here, leaving only your body. Then I would separate a part of my spirit and inject it into your body. Then I would legitimately take over the Sun Umbrella Company and all your businesses."
He smiled and said, "How about it?"
Lu Kuo's slow brain finally reacted. He prostrated himself on the ground, his tone humble and pious: "Please spare my life. I'm willing to do anything for you."
Chi Shuangliu used the word "originally", which at least shows that he has changed his mind.
If he wanted to kill me, he could have just done it directly instead of coming in front of me and talking nonsense - this meant that he was still useful.
He became even more humble. "If you don't trust me, you can mark me. If I ever go against your wishes, you can crush me to dust."
Lu Kuo's reaction was really quick, and he made the correct judgment almost instantly. Chi Shuangliu raised his eyebrows slightly.
It seems that there are still some smart people among humans. Why is that...
Chi Shuangliu realized that he had run to Chen Run again. He forced himself to come back to his senses, tapped his finger lightly in the air, and an eye condensed in the air. He raised his hand and waved it, and the eye quickly took root on Lu Kuo's wrist, monitoring his every move on behalf of the gods.
——Because Lu Kuo had previously harbored great ill will towards him, and he came here with the intention of besieging and killing Chi Shuangliu, the curse was cast smoothly.
"There are two things I need you to do." Chi Shuangliu retracted his finger. "First, I know that in human society, governments are doing their best to conceal the existence of people with special abilities. I need you to quickly expand the influence of people with special abilities until the countries can no longer conceal it. Second, help me collect the 'meteorites' left behind by the meteor shower that hit many years ago."
Although no one knows what Chi Shuangliu wants to do, the first day is still manageable for the Sun Umbrella Company. Part of the Sun Umbrella Company's industry is to provide biochemical agents specifically for people with special abilities. The company itself also has many people with special abilities working in it. The only risk is the possibility of being held accountable by various governments, but now saving lives is the most important thing.
As for the second one... Lu Kuo hesitated. "You may not know that those meteorites contain very high energy and are of extremely high research value. They have basically been divided up by the laboratories of several major countries. The places where meteorites may still exist are either deep in the tropical rainforest, which is known as a human restricted area, or tens of thousands of meters deep in the sea..."
He was afraid that Chi Shuangliu would think he was making an excuse to shirk responsibility, so he quickly added, "But I can hire someone with special abilities to try to find it for you."
Chi Shuangliu glanced at him and said, "No need. You just need to find out the exact location of the meteorite and let me know."
——Some of the fragments in these meteorites come from the universe where he was born. These fragments have a certain effect in helping him restore his strength.
Lu Kuo nodded without asking any more questions. Chi Shuangliu waved his hand and tore a crack in the space. The scenery of the real world could be seen outside the crack. He glanced at Lu Kuo and signaled that he could go out.
Before leaving, Lu Kuo looked back at Chi Shuangliu and said respectfully, "One more thing... Please apologize to Miss Shen Run on my behalf. It was not my intention to deceive her before, and I had no choice. I dare not ask for her forgiveness, but I am willing to give her everything I have to make it up to her."
Lu Kuo has adjusted his mindset by now and gradually accepted the fact of becoming a slave of the evil god.
From what he observed, Chi Shuangliu treated Chen Run very, very specially. It was always easier to please Chen Run than to please Chi Shuangliu. In this case, he could first repair his relationship with Shen Run, and then indirectly please Chi Shuangliu by making friends with her.
It has to be said that ambitious people have strong adaptability. He is now planning how to fight for power and profit.
Chi Shuangliu's gaze fell on him and his eyes narrowed slightly.
Lu Kuo broke out in a cold sweat.
He thought Chi Shuangliu had discovered his thoughts. He panicked, his brain racing to think of what to say to make amends, when he heard Chi Shuangliu say, "I don't like hearing her name from other people of the opposite sex."
Lu Kuo: “…”
So he was jealous just now?
It's outrageous. The name Chen Run seems to have an aura of lowering intelligence. When this name is mentioned, it feels like the evil god's IQ has dropped a lot.
Facing the evil god who suddenly became obsessed with love, Lu Kuo forced a smile: "I have offended you, please forgive me."
He fled from the higher-dimensional space.
The crack slowly closed, but Chi Shuangliu did not leave. He stood in the distance and pondered for a while, then passed through layers of space and came to the deepest part of the high-dimensional space.
——This place is completely cut off from all connections with the real world. Even he himself cannot sense the existence of the outside world here. It is his safest and most secret space.
His spiritual body is stored here, which is also his original appearance - his current human body is just the body he created by using the power of desire he gained on Earth to best suit human aesthetics.
From a human perspective, his true form is terrifying.
Countless tentacles extend in all directions, and the purple-black tentacles are covered with suction cups, which are used for killing and destruction. His body is covered with densely packed eyes, which help him monitor the entire universe. His body is extremely huge, like a mountain, making the human body seem so small - if an ordinary person were here, they would probably be scared to death at a glance.
The spiritual body was covered with scars, and most of its eyeballs were closed. Only a few had a slit open, and the eyeballs were moving weakly.
Nine thick iron chains tightly bound his spiritual body, and the chains were engraved with dense runes - this was the true form of the restriction that Chi Shi had placed on him. The collar around his neck was just a manifestation. If he wanted, he could hide the collar on his neck and not let others see it.
Even though He is so huge, it is still not His complete form. His complete form is even several times larger than the entire Milky Way. He once slept in the center of another universe. Because the universe he was in exploded, he was forced to exile here.
After the ban was lifted, in order to restore his strength, he needed to devour all the resources of the earth before he could return to the universe, and then rely on devouring other celestial bodies to gradually restore his original size - he is to humans like the blue sky and the mayfly.
Devouring and destroying are his instincts. It is difficult for him to restrain his instincts, and he has no intention of restraining them, just like humans need to eat when they are hungry and drink water when they are thirsty.
Chi Shuangliu raised his head and stared at his own body.
As a god, he prides himself on his size and strength.
But he thought of Shen Run again.
He once thought that as a higher-dimensional creature, it would be difficult for him to develop feelings for a human, just as a human would not fall in love with an ant.
What he was thinking about now was, what would happen if Shen Run found out that she was a terrifying, huge, evil evil god full of tyranny and desire for destruction?
What would she think if she saw her true self one day?
Will she still love herself like this?
Self-recognition and self-doubt were tugged at each other in his mind, his face was sometimes distorted and sometimes normal, giving him a terrifying sense of disconnection.
Would she kiss him again? Would she hug him again?
