Chapter 284

Zuo Cikui was also someone who couldn't stand being talked about; just as Li Yu was thinking, it wasn't long before his will was about to descend.

This made Yi Ge very unhappy, and after silently noting this guy down, she left.

That indescribable strange feeling subsequently subsided!

The sister-brother relationship that had deteriorated and almost lost control was able to pull back from the brink.

Just as Li Yu was still feeling a bit lost, a voice came into his mind:

"Brother Li Yu, are this so-called 'Venerable of Confusion' and that 'Sequence 8 Madman secret medicine formula' true or false?"

Zuo Cikui asked as soon as he came up, obviously having just received the report sent by his subordinates.

There was no need to ask other workers; among the victims, there was still Li Yu, this God-Chosen of Myriad Changes.

He didn't believe at all that Li Yu had also been tricked, only thinking that this Lord of the Calamity Star Command had accompanied other workers in a scene to save his life and be loyal to his persona.

As for whether the answer heard from Li Yu's mouth would be processed?

If he weren't wearing the 【Passerby Skin】, Zuo Cikui wouldn't dare to guarantee that he could distinguish it. After all, the true god the other party believed in was simply a liar.

A fanatic is naturally the same as the main master; usually, there isn't a single word of truth in their mouths.

But now, he had 100% confidence.

A living being wrapped in the passerby skin simply could not lie in a conversation with him, this "Puppet Master of Ancient and Modern Times," and would involuntarily reveal the truth without even realizing it.

It was precisely this kind of pollution that made people unable to perceive it bit by bit that allowed him to master numerous puppet chess pieces silently.

The puppets themselves!

Would even feel that they were free.

Unfortunately, how could Zuo Cikui have imagined that there would be an exception like Li Yu in this world, whose reason was locked by the Truth Soul Body.

After hearing this, Li Yu immediately responded with a sincere tone:

"That Venerable of Confusion is real; it is an evil god from outside the sky passing through."

"It's just that the so-called fortuitous encounter and secret medicine formula are probably the evil god fooling living beings for fun."

"According to 'My Lord,' that 【Venerable of Confusion】 is extremely malicious and likes to play some tricks that are hard to distinguish between true and false to fool living beings."

"If you fall for it and believe it, then you have let it succeed."

"The best way to deal with it is to ignore it."

"Understood!"

Out of absolute confidence in himself as a Puppet Master of Ancient and Modern Times, plus the fact that various pieces of evidence indeed showed this.

Zuo Cikui was successfully fooled.

Even so, Li Yu still didn't intend to let him go.

Although both sides were harboring evil intentions, Zuo Cikui knew nothing about Li Yu's calculations.

As for his thoughts, Li Yu knew them like the back of his hand.

With a shake of his belly full of bad water, Li Yu had the idea of blackmailing him and put it into action.

So the next moment, he heard him speak directly:

"Brother Zuo!"

"I have been playing this passerby for many days, and I see that the 【Sacred Nest】 has not used any more means; it should be that the Book of Red Dust has taken effect."

"Now, I should be completely safe."

"Since that's the case, Li should also take off this skin and say goodbye."

As soon as these words of Li Yu's were spat out.

Without any surprise, he was refused.

Are you kidding?

It was not easy to coax Li Yu, this God-Chosen of Myriad Changes, to put on this skin voluntarily; the process of puppetization was still far away, so how could he allow Li Yu to take it off so quickly.

But Zuo Cikui also knew that a blunt refusal would easily arouse the other party's suspicion.

This Lord of the Calamity Star Command was, after all, a God-Chosen of Myriad Changes; once he became suspicious, his plan would immediately be ruined.

Even if he tore his face, it was highly probable that he wouldn't be able to keep the other party, let alone pollute and refine him into a puppet.

A God-Chosen can shout "My Lord, save me" when at death's door; at that time, he would have to face the Lord of Myriad Changes.

Therefore, only by using both coercion and inducement to drag him along as much as possible was the best strategy.

As these thoughts turned in Zuo Cikui's heart, a speech that could be called impeccable was thrown over:

"Shang Yang has a high status and occupies a place in the so-called 【Ancient Saint Plan】; his death may attract the attention of the Ancient Saints and retaliate against you."

"After all, I have accepted your benefits, and since the Book of Red Dust has been used, it is not good to waste it."

"Zuo suggests that you wait for a few more days."

Speaking of this, he paused.

Immediately, he induced:

"However, it is indeed quite boring to keep playing a 'passerby'."

"Fortunately, this kind of persona can be changed."

"Next, Brother Li Yu, you will be changed to an 【Ancient God Train Patrol Officer】. The Pioneer will set sail tomorrow and go to the Three Kingdoms and Six Sects to show off; there will be plenty of excitement to watch, and it will definitely not make you feel bored."

"I will also give you higher permissions. If you are interested, you can get off the train to play around during the rest time when the Pioneer stops at major stations."

"Of course, there will also be a lot of 'fun' on the train. The Pioneer is selling tickets to the outside, and because it is the maiden voyage, it has quite a commemorative significance. Whether it is the God-Chosen from the present world, or the God-Favored and legendary powerhouses from the Spirit Realm and outside the sky, they will all come to ride and sightsee."

"For example, the 【Forbidden Child of the Slaanesh God-Favored】 coming from a distant place, or that 【Legendary Green Skin of the Crazy God Sect】"

"So, besides being a patrol officer, I will arrange a position as a registrar for you."

"These well-known passengers must all go through your registration before boarding."

"How about it?"

When Zuo Cikui spat out the last two words, there was no doubt in his tone.

He was certain that Li Yu would agree.

The reason was very simple and crude: no God-Chosen of Myriad Changes would refuse such an opportunity to participate in a grand event and cause trouble.

Although Zuo Cikui completely misunderstood Li Yu's profession, he actually calculated it correctly by mistake.

Although he was not a God-Chosen of Myriad Changes, he was a practitioner of another more malicious path of troublemakers.

Moreover, Li Yu didn't intend to leave this Ancient God Train at all.

The place for promotion had already been chosen.

Now, the benefits given by Zuo Cikui were unexpected gains.

Pretending to say he wanted to say goodbye was actually "extorting" Zuo Cikui.

Now, not only was the goal achieved, but it could also be considered a surprise.

Upon hearing the name of the Forbidden Child, Li Yu was even more shocked.

If it weren't for the names of other God-Favored and legendary powerhouses from the Spirit Realm and outside the sky following behind, Li Yu would have almost thought he was exposed.

"The Forbidden Child is coming to Wanfu City and also bought a ticket for the maiden voyage of the 【Pioneer】?"

"How did he come? Was he summoned by the Lust Sect?"

"And a large number of strange legendary powerhouses from other worlds?"

"A hodgepodge of all heavens?"

"Is Wanfu City not going to build a transcendent great nation where powerhouses from all heavens can immigrate?"

When these thoughts emerged.

Li Yu immediately had some imagination about what the scene and picture of the maiden voyage of the Pioneer tomorrow would be.

At the same time, the desire to cause trouble and pry into secrets could not help but stir.

"An Ancient God Train that is about to be full of a large number of powerhouses, and many of them are strange powerhouses from the Spirit Realm and outside the sky."

"Serving as a patrol officer and registrar."

"Who can refuse this?"

"Just the large amount of brand-new secrets and knowledge that can be obtained is a huge profit."

Without any hesitation, Li Yu showed obvious excitement and anticipation.

And responded quickly:

"Good!"

"Many thanks, Brother Zuo; this couldn't be better."

"No need to be polite!"

The two exchanged pleasantries, both feeling that their calculations had succeeded, and were in a great mood.

After Zuo Cikui's will left, Li Yu went to carefully feel the metamorphosis brought by this adventure.

Being a madman for once!

Losing a lot of face for once!

The harvest, naturally, would not be small.

Vortex God divinity is also a top-tier divinity no weaker than the divinity in strange objects like 【Spirit Soil】 and 【Cursed Finger】.

Normally, Li Yu would have to swallow and refine it, with a high price and a dangerous process.

But Li Yu, through his own uniqueness and the act of eating soft rice, digested it in advance.

"A true immortal body, capable of dividing into billions, charming all living beings, distorting cognition... I didn't grow a certain mutated organ, but the body itself, from inside to outside, has undergone a metamorphosis, already approximating a Vortex God descendant."

"According to Sister Yi Ge: now the Vortex God path is about to evolve halfway; after the Leech, Witch, and Immortal Woman, a newly born Sequence 5 【Charming Banshee】."

"And the abilities I possess now are even at the Sequence 4 level that has not yet been born."

"Refining medicine for promotion, there is another layer of help and insurance."

"This soft rice is too fragrant, too worth it."

In Li Yu's joyful exclamation.

One day passed quickly.

With Zuo Cikui's status, since he gave a promise, he naturally arranged it properly very quickly.

Silently, Li Yu didn't even need to take off the skin, nor did he need to change it himself.

Early the next morning, he walked out of the bottom carriage.

Along the spiral staircase inside the train, he walked step by step toward the upper carriage.

Every time he turned a corner, the skin on his body produced a change.

When Li Yu appeared in the top carriage.

His whole appearance had changed greatly.

From a lean, foul-smelling worker transporting flesh-and-blood coal blocks, he turned into a graceful, bookish human registrar.

Because none of the "guests" he had to face were ordinary mortals, this time his persona was not a mortal either.

But a practitioner of a god-ascending path that seemed quite mysterious to other living beings.

This point made Li Yu even more satisfied.

Because what Zuo Cikui arranged was a path owned by the Main Mansion.

"Brother Li Yu, this will be your new persona."

"A registrar from the Main Mansion, currently at the starting sequence 【Nine-Stream Passerby】, and has cultivated the 'Civil Official Phase' among the Upper Nine Streams."

"Possesses divine abilities such as photographic memory and immunity to evil, and has obtained the relatively weak power of 'Words Become Law'."

"These powers can be temporarily lent to you by the passerby skin, allowing you to perfectly follow the persona."

"In the next few days, the Pioneer will be a place where the aura of all gods gathers; you must endure, so as not to leak the details."

"No problem!"

When Li Yu replied with these three words, he was in a great mood.

He didn't expect!

That Zuo Cikui would spend so much money to keep him.

He thought Li Yu was a "God-Chosen of Myriad Changes" and was interested in secrets and knowledge, so he took the initiative to offer a little sweetness, such as the Main Mansion's god path and sequence, and even some divine abilities like 【Upper Nine Streams Civil Official Phase】.

Unfortunately, he didn't expect that Li Yu was of the Spirit Venerable path.

The two major paths have many commonalities.

But there is also one difference: the Spirit Venerable path likes and is good at stealing laws.

PS: There will be more, asking for monthly tickets.
