Not a god

Chapter 190 There's also a younger sister
A figure crashed down from the overpass, creating a crater in the asphalt. It was a humanoid monster dressed in a suit.

A crowd surged under the overpass, and traffic was congested on the road. The people from the Maki-no-Kami had not yet arrived. Many people took out their cameras and started snapping pictures. A young girl was standing by the overpass. The light from the overpass shone down on her from behind, and from below, all that could be seen was her slender outline and shadow.

After Chen Xi saw the person on the bridge clearly, she found it a little funny. She hadn't expected to run into her here.

All the onlookers saw was a girl holding a talisman, muttering something to herself. Suddenly, she let out a delicate shout and flung the talisman downwards. As the talisman was flung out, it burst into flames in the air, and a figure emerged from the flames.

It was a majestic and imposing man, but his form was semi-transparent. The moment the man appeared, he knew who his enemy was and began to fight the scoundrel in a suit on the street.

The girl standing by the overpass then leaped... landing on the overpass behind her, and then ran down the stairs on the side.

"..." If you can't jump down, then why are you standing so high?

By this time, a large crowd had gathered by the roadside, all of them astonished by what they saw.

"Who is that?"

“That’s… He Congxue from the Kailuan Guild.”

"He Congxue, is that He Congxue? Ahhhh, I'm a fan of his!"

"Great! It's a second-tier Sovereign-level expert! We're saved!"

The girl wasn't the only one tasked with dealing with this monstrous creature; several members of the Chosen Ones also emerged from the crowd. However, they didn't intervene but instead maintained order at the scene, preventing anyone from swarming forward.

The appearance of the monstrous remains is random, and no matter how quickly the response is, casualties are inevitable. If the security of a place makes people feel uneasy, it will have a significant impact on the development of that place. This is Shanghai, and the adults who overlook this city will not allow any chaos to occur here.

Therefore, negative incidents about evil spirits killing people online are suppressed as soon as they appear, resulting in people here lacking a correct understanding of evil spirits.

Here, heroes are glorified, and one after another, destined individuals shine like stars in the sky. The glorious deeds of these heroes are used to cover up all the memories and truths of suffering.

Forget about horrible remains and dreamland; Shanghai is the safest place in the world.

On the overpass lay four or five corpses, while below, people frantically took photos with their phones like fans chasing celebrities, their faces obscured by the flashes of light.

It's hard to say whether this is right or wrong; rational people are ultimately a minority.

From the conversations of the people around her, Chen Xi learned that He Congxue was also a spiritual cultivator, something called "Summoning the Gods".

This so-called 'god' is actually another chosen one. Chen Xi doesn't know exactly how he did it. The 'god' she has invited now seems to be a well-known second-tier mountain-moving king in Shanghai.

Subsequently, He Congxue invited three or four more people, and after a group fight, they killed the second-tier evil skeleton.

It's a bit like copying someone else's puppet and then using it to fight against others, similar to Jiang Wanwan's mass troop build.

They truly are cousins.

"Brother, let's go!"

"Aren't you going to say hello to Xiaoxue?"

"Let's go, let's go! That person is a nuisance!"

"But she seems to have noticed us."

He Congxue initially thought she was seeing things, but upon closer inspection, her vision became increasingly bright. She shouted towards the crowd:
"Brother Chen Xi!"

There were many people surrounding her, so she had the security personnel who were with her push through the crowd and quickly caught up with them.

She moved lightly and was about to jump onto Chen Xi when Jiang Wanwan stopped her.

"Oh...and Wanwan too."

Jiang Wanwan knew there was no way to avoid it, and her expression was very unpleasant. She said, "What do you mean by Wanwan? You should call me cousin."

He Congxue paid no attention to her and even tried to make a face at her, but she was taken aback when she noticed Jiang Xiaowan next to her:
"What, how come there are two Wanwans?" But then she guessed that it must be related to the Chosen One. There are all sorts of Chosen Ones now. She wondered if her cousin's Chosen One ability could also create clones.

But she didn't care about Jiang Wanwan at all, and greeted her sweetly, asking:

"Did my brother come to play with me?"

Jiang Wanwan, like a sumo wrestler, guarded her closely and pushed her away, saying, "This is my brother, not your brother."

"My brother came without even telling me!"

"It's been a long time since I've seen Xiaoxue." Chen Xi just smiled.

"I came to Shanghai on a business trip and brought Wanwan along to play. I was originally planning to visit my uncle's house in a couple of days after I finished my work."

He Congxue is a relative of Jiang Wanwan's father; to be precise, she is the daughter of Jiang Wanwan's second uncle.

Jiang Wanwan's parents are just divorced, and Jiang Wanwan still occasionally keeps in touch with her father's side.

Jiang's father is named He Zhou. He was a minor entertainer before, and in his youth he was a playboy with a somewhat dissolute personality. He was half as handsome as Chen Xi.

He retired from the entertainment industry a few years earlier than Aunt Jiang, almost as if he had had his fill of fun and then went home to inherit the family business.

When Jiang Wanwan was ten years old, her father took her there, intending for her to stay for the summer vacation. However, after only a few days, Jiang Wanwan started making a fuss about wanting to find her brother, so she was sent back. (Chapter 76)
Helpless, Jiang's father asked Chen Xi if she would like to come and play with him, and the two of them ended up living together here for a while.

Later, during elementary and middle school, the two of them would occasionally stay at Jiang Wanwan's father's place for a period of time during winter and summer vacations.

Chen Xi met He Congxue in this way. He was a bit of a show-off and had a bad temper when she was young. She liked to bully Jiang Wanwan, who was older than her. After being disciplined by Chen Xi a few times, she began to enjoy playing with him.

The He family seems to have been in the incense and candle business for generations. Besides incense, candles, and paper money, they also have other funeral-related businesses, and the scale is not small... Suddenly, Chen Xi thought of the seventeen guilds supported by the chosen ones of the old era, and it seems that there is indeed one in the funeral industry.

Could it really be someone from Jiang Wanwan's father's side?

Their family business used to be mainly in Suzhou, so Chen Xi didn't expect to run into He Congxue here.

"Why did you come to Shanghai? Are you here to study?"

Suzhou is very close to Shanghai, and the educational resources here are better. He Congxue is a senior in high school this year, and is four years younger than Chen Xi and the others.

"Yeah, yeah, brother, you haven't come to play with me in ages..."

He Congxue looked at the little girl who was being held in Chen Xi's arms, and the little girl was also staring at her. She keenly sensed that something was wrong.

"Brother, what is this...?"

"Yiyi, call her Auntie."

"Auntie!"

"!!"

The girl's face turned deathly pale instantly. She looked at Chen Xi with disbelief, then at the two Jiang Wanwans, and then at the young girl being held by Chen Xi.

No, not possible.

She had already decided to take the college entrance exam in Jiangcheng, and she had already figured out how to snatch her brother away from her sister.

Chen Xi knew what his silly cousin was up to, but in his eyes, He Congxue simply liked to steal Jiang Wanwan's things, and she had always been like that since she was a child.

"Let's leave here first; this isn't the place to talk."
