"God!" Wen Jingge exclaimed as if she had discovered a new continent, circling the man once. "Is he really a god?"
"It seems so." Lu Wei silently mourned for the man for a few seconds.
Wen Jingge has never been defeated. Every troublemaker who walks past her always ends up pitiful and helpless.
For example, him; for example, the Golden Crow; for example, the Northern Demon Bell…
This is the first person who has dared to call himself a god since he woke up so long ago.
This is the first time Lu Wei has ever seen such a weak god.
If this down-on-his-luck person is a god, then he could be considered a god's ancestor to some extent, utterly disgracing the gods.
"Because he is a god, is his meat fragrant?" Wen Jingge was full of curiosity about the man and did not make a move rashly.
She hadn't fully grasped the world's setting yet; having only ever lived on Earth, this was the first time she'd encountered a god descended from the heavens.
"Yes, for ordinary people." The man always wore a polite smile, so much so that Wen Jingge thought it was a mask made of paste on his face, like a clown wearing a compassionate smile before killing someone.
"An ordinary person?" Wen Jingge nodded, her mood not very good: "So I'm just an ordinary person. Thank you. It seems I need to work harder."
She reached out and covered the man's head.
The man looked over in confusion, then closed his eyes in enjoyment. "If you're going to kill me, please use more force. I'll enjoy it to the fullest."
Wen Jingge's face stiffened. How could there be someone in this world more shameless than her?!
"I believe this will be an indescribable journey to death."
"Is this guy crazy?!" Wang Xi was the first among all the disciples to speak up. "If you're crazy, don't take it out on ordinary people! Those who obey your orders, many of them have families and children, and because of your momentary whim, they're all gone. Are you a god or a demon?"
Wen Jingge couldn't help but glance at Wang Xi again.
These words are not the kind of words a princess who has been pampered in the palace since childhood would say; rather, they are the words of a minister who often works for the benefit of the people.
"Master, please don't look at me like that. Qianyan won the hearts of the people precisely because it shared benefits with them and worked for their well-being. Even its officials were born from the common people. This system was taught to us by you. Otherwise, how could a small clan like Qianyan have developed into a founding nation?"
Wen Jingge: ...
My mood suddenly improved a lot.
“You came from heaven, while I am still on earth.” Wen Jingge threw the coffin aside, and the man’s eyes widened, then he revealed a joyful smile.
"You used it as the core of the formation to break through my advancing servants, didn't you?"
"Exactly."
"Can I give you enough freedom to be my servant?"
Wen Jingge: ...
"I will make you even more renowned and admired by thousands."
“You’ve got it wrong, buddy.” Wen Jingge stepped on his knee, and the man only bit his lip because of the pain, without any other dissatisfaction. “It’s a shame you know I’m Master Wen.”
"I know." The man's eyes seemed to shimmer with starlight.
Those were extremely beautiful eyes, with a certain allure. Bei Moling had tried to bewitch Wen Jinge using the scented powder, but it had no effect.
"I know because the higher-ups know about you."
"So, your gods strike me with lightning all the time?"
"Lightning?" The man finally stopped laughing, a hint of confusion appearing on his stiff face. "Didn't you summon it with a lightning-attracting talisman? Nobody dares to strike you."
"Why?" Lu Wei was afraid that Wen Jingge would continue to make jokes, so he forgot to ask about the true origin of this god.
"Become my servant and I'll tell you." The man looked at Lu Wei with friendly eyes. "You were once a god, and I can see into your past. Do you want to know what happened that night?"
Lu Wei hesitated.
Wen Jingge stepped in to help, saying, "He doesn't want to! Neither do I!"
Lu Wei: ...
"Let me tell you, to be a god, you need to use pyramid schemes to bewitch people. This god is either fabricated, hypocritical, or incompetent."
I, Wen Jingge, will only ever be a servant of the strong. When they ascend to high positions, I will stab them in the back, and the world will ultimately respect me!
These words were quite treasonous, but no one refuted Wen Jingge when she said them.
The disciples felt that their master's decision was unshakeable, so they followed their master's lead. Lu Wei, however, believed that Wen Jingge was capable of doing such a thing, given her madness.
Everyone in this world has lingering ties with each other, which cannot be truly severed, but Wen Jingge is an exception; her attachment to this world is almost zero.
The existence of those two in her mind seemed to be threatening Wen Jinge, but in reality, she was enjoying it, and it was those two who were being threatened.
The man's breathing became increasingly rapid, and a slight flush appeared on his dark face. He shook his head, crying incredulously, "Me! Hahahaha! How could this be! How could this happen? No, no, this shouldn't be happening."
"Shouldn't it be like this?" Liang Si pointed her sword at him and cleaved down, the man's head falling to the ground, blood flowing everywhere.
However, he did not die.
His head remained in place, but his neck had changed, and slowly a nearly transparent head grew out.
Liang Si cleaved down with his sword again, and two heads fell to the ground, while three more heads were growing.
“It’s no use.” The little girl shook her head, her eyes filled with tears, looking terrified. “I, I was tricked by him. He said he could help me turn into human form first, and he would let me go as long as I could kill him. But, but I can’t kill him. I can only be his servant, and, and I can’t go too far.”
"How many times did you kill him?"
"I don't know." The little girl looked at Wen Jinge and cried even harder. "I was killing before the Xuan Yun Sect recruited new members, but after the recruitment, he said he was going to the Xuan Yun Sect, so I stopped killing. Waaah, I really don't know anything, please don't roast me and eat me."
"Are you immortal now too?"
"Yes, yes, I can't die. I wish I were dead. Every time I get injured, it hurts so much, but, but I just can't die. Again and again, it hurts so much, it hurts so much!"
The man's head had grown out, and his face was very white. He still looked fake, like a paper doll. His eyes, nose, and mouth looked like they were painted on, and the colors were very light.
"Is it true that even the so-called Heavenly Dao cannot appear in its true form?" Wen Jingge suddenly muttered to herself. The man's expression gradually became more complex, but he was still stunned when he heard Wen Jingge's words.
"The Heavenly Dao! Yes, you possess the Heavenly Dao's key, which is why I sought you out to kill me."
"If you can't kill him, you'll take him as a servant?" Wen Jingge sneered and patted Liang Si's shoulder. "Our Wanzhang Peak has a tradition of killing the venerable. My disciple was already thinking about how to kill me when he first entered the sect. You'd better think carefully before you answer."
"Wonderful!" the man exclaimed.
"Master! Let's ignore him, he's a complete idiot. Let's run before the shopkeeper reacts!"
Wen Jingge looked at Wang Xi, her face full of doubt.
"That will ruin Master's reputation even more!"
"Great idea!" Lu Wei patted her shoulder and set off on his own.
