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

"Hmm?"

Walking on the sidewalk, Li Chenqiu paused slightly, retracting his extended leg and stopping in place.

"Just who is it?" Li Chenqiu tilted his head slightly, a hint of confusion in his eyes.

His keen sixth sense alerted him to the fact that he was being followed by two people, but he could sense that they held no malice towards him.

Li Chenqiu turned around, his deep gaze cutting through the crowd, locking onto a man and a woman hundreds of meters away.

Hundreds of meters away, the young man's body trembled, a flicker of panic rising in his eyes, and he stood rooted to the spot like a log.

The man's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he said in a trembling voice, "He, he, he... seems to be looking at me."

The woman beside him gave the man a disdainful look, "What are you afraid of? I'm here, aren't I?"

"Who said I'm afraid?" The man puffed out his chest, glaring at the woman. "Let's go."

With that, the man braced himself against Li Chenqiu's gaze and walked forward, the woman's lips curving into a charming smile as she followed.

The distance between them continued to shrink.

Two hundred meters... one hundred and fifty meters... one hundred meters...

Li Chenqiu's eyes gradually sharpened, the "Ember" on his left index finger flickering slightly, a faint chill emanating from his body.

"Hey, why does it suddenly feel cold?"

"It really does feel a bit cold!"

The people around Li Chenqiu shivered one after another, reaching out to tighten their clothes.

And in that short moment, the man had already walked past Li Chenqiu.

Just as Li Chenqiu was about to say something, the man discreetly slipped a piece of paper into Li Chenqiu's hand, and whispered, "Waiting for you."

After speaking, the man quickly darted into the crowd and disappeared without a trace.

Leaving Li Chenqiu standing there alone, he glanced at the paper in his hand, walked to a nearby alley, stopped at a blind spot of the surveillance cameras, and opened the paper: We can help you clear your name from the Calamity Water suspicion, license plate C·76454.

"License plate C·76454," Li Chenqiu murmured to himself.

Just as he finished speaking, a horn sounded from the side of the road.

Li Chenqiu turned his head to look, and a green and white taxi came into view, the bright yellow license plate particularly conspicuous under the sunlight, exactly matching the license plate number on the paper.

Li Chenqiu didn't react at all to this scene, but lowered his head, his eyes deep as he looked at the paper.

After pondering for a dozen seconds, Li Chenqiu rubbed the small piece of paper into ashes and walked towards the taxi.

Knock knock knock!

Li Chenqiu reached out and knocked on the closed car window: "Master, are you leaving?"

The middle-aged driver glanced at Li Chenqiu and said, "Yes, get in!"

Li Chenqiu nodded, opened the passenger door and got in.

The air conditioner was on in the car, and a faint smell of blood permeated the enclosed space.

Li Chenqiu's sense of smell was very keen, and he immediately recognized that it was the smell of human blood. He took a deep look at the middle-aged driver, but didn't say anything.

The middle-aged driver wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and grinned at Li Chenqiu: "Where are you going, young man?"

"You called me here, but you're asking me where I'm going?" Li Chenqiu asked calmly.

"Heh heh heh." The middle-aged driver chuckled a few times and drove away from the side of the road.

Li Chenqiu leaned his head against the window and asked after a long silence, "Who are you?"

The middle-aged driver gripped the steering wheel and said with a smile, "Of course, I'm the same kind of person as you."

Li Chenqiu frowned, a faint coldness flashing in his deep eyes: "Explain yourself clearly, who are you, what is your purpose, and which force do you belong to?"

"You're a really interesting person. Someone will tell you, but that person isn't me." The middle-aged driver narrowed his eyes and continued to drive as if nothing had happened.

The corner of Li Chenqiu's mouth curled up slightly: "You're also quite interesting. Do you think I'm asking you?"

Whoosh~

A black shadow flashed in the car, and the next second, the hair on the middle-aged driver's forehead was blown upwards by the wind, Li Chenqiu's left index finger stopping in front of the middle-aged driver's forehead.

Screech——

A harsh braking sound rang out on the road, and the taxi that was driving normally came to an abrupt stop.

Fortunately, there were no vehicles closely following the taxi, otherwise there would have been a rear-end collision.

Inside the car, the middle-aged driver's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needlepoint, and beads of cold sweat slowly oozed from his forehead.

The chill surging from that fingertip made him tremble all over, his hair standing on end, and an unprecedented sense of oppression spread throughout his body.

The middle-aged driver swallowed and cursed inwardly.

How could this strength be different from what the intelligence said? Damn it, false intelligence is harmful!

Beep beep beep——

"Move forward, what are you doing? Do you think the road is your parking space?!"

Beep beep beep——

Urgent honking came from behind the taxi.

"What are you waiting for? Keep driving!" Li Chenqiu smiled and tapped the middle-aged driver's forehead with his finger.

"Okay... okay..."

The middle-aged driver nodded slightly and started the car, slowly driving forward.

Li Chenqiu retracted his finger, crossed his legs and sat in the passenger seat, and said faintly: "You're just a Fourth Forbidden Awakened, what qualifications do you have to act mysterious in front of me?

The words I say are not asking you, but ordering you to tell me the answer. If you say it well, I'll let you live. If you don't say it well, then prepare to be carried out of here!"

The middle-aged driver took a few deep breaths and said courageously: "We are here to help you clear your name. If you dare to kill me, then..."

Before the driver could finish speaking, Li Chenqiu raised his hand and placed it on the other person's head, his five fingers pressed tightly against his forehead.

Li Chenqiu bent down and stretched his head in front of the driver: "Why don't you continue? I'm waiting to crush your head."

The middle-aged driver's lips turned white, and he forced a pale smile: "I, I... I won't say it, I won't say it."

Li Chenqiu questioned coldly: "I'll ask you one last time, who are you, and what is your purpose?"

The middle-aged driver said eagerly: "We are people from the Underworld, our purpose... our purpose is to help you clear your name."

Li Chenqiu raised an eyebrow: "Do you know who I am?"

"Yes, yes... Calamity Water." The middle-aged driver stammered.

As soon as these words came out, a hint of doubt appeared between Li Chenqiu's eyebrows.

The news that he was 096 Calamity Water was currently just speculation, with no definite statement.

But judging from the tone of this person from the Underworld, it was clear that they believed that he was 096 Calamity Water. Where did they learn this from?

Could it be that he didn't kill all the Awakened in the Netherworld, and someone leaked the news?

The middle-aged driver seemed to have noticed Li Chenqiu's confusion and opened his mouth to explain: "Lord Horse-Face said it."
