Chapter 237 Chu Xuan, I'm Going to Kill You [First Update, Requesting Monthly Tickets]

Pitch black...cold...shivering...

The demon Zheng Zha had a strange sense of déjà vu about this feeling.

He just had a dream… a very long dream. In the dream, he lost a lot, and therefore became extremely powerful.

But they managed to protect nothing.

Then, a question popped into his mind.

Am I not dead?

The demon Zheng Zha slowly opened his eyes.

Before me was a narrow slit through which light passed.

Then, from the other end of the gap, a powerful pulling force came and pulled him over!
Dark... crawling...

Having finally reached the other side, the demon Zheng Zha felt as if he had been... reborn.

Apart from being extremely depleted of energy, there seemed to be nothing unusual.

He struggled to his feet, but at a glance he saw about twenty figures... some solid, some semi-transparent, surrounding him in the center.

what happened?

"Clap clap clap-"

Continuous applause.

As the captain of the Central Continent Team, Fang Ge spoke first: "Congratulations on your successful resurrection and overcoming your inner demons!"

"Congratulations!" Whether dead or alive, both Luo Gandaos had an expression that they couldn't keep up a straight face.

"Congratulations!" Zheng Zha, the real person, laughed heartily.

"Congratulations," Chu Xuan repeated calmly.

Chu Xuan, in his soul form, also repeated the four words, "Congratulations, Captain."

Weird...

This scene was too bizarre. Apart from the two Chu Xuans, a group of people with tense expressions congratulated him, even Jun Zhongding and Mou Gang were there!

It felt like being watched like a monkey.

And what's with the semi-transparent body? Is it like in Dragon Ball, where a halo on top makes you a hero?

"What the hell? I'm not even an EVA fan, why would I have a dream like this?"

The demon Zheng Zha couldn't help but swear, almost thinking he was dreaming.

He searched anxiously to determine if this was something from a dream... until he realized the existence of the Reincarnation Wristwatch.

[Demons' Score: -11 points]

That makes sense, I really am dead... What's the point of wearing a watch when you're dead!
"This is a long story, but I'll keep it short... In short, the plan to wipe out the Demon Team was devised by Chu Xuan of the Demon Team."

Seeing that the other party had begun to doubt life, Fang Ge finally couldn't help but laugh and said, "We carried out the plan according to his wishes, and made some slight modifications to your points and resurrection plan."

With slight modifications, this is a word that evokes such fond memories...

The demon Zheng Zha couldn't deduce the whole picture from this brief summary. But that didn't prevent him from having his own "path dependence."

"...You mean, Chu Xuan tricked me?"

The demon Zheng Zha was so angry that his dragon horns were practically sticking out. He roared, "You've all been playing me for a fool? Chu Xuan! I'm going to kill you!"

Chu Xuan of the Central Continent Team silently took half a step back, protecting the soul of the demon Chu Xuan in front of him.

“Strictly speaking, this is a win-win-win project.” Demon Chu Xuan habitually pushed up his glasses, but since he was a soul, there was actually no sense of reality in it.

"First, the Central Continent team can obtain the most points and side rewards."

"Secondly, we can clear the ratings and optimize the team structure and lineage. At the same time, after this [test of trust], we can form a true alliance with the Central Continent Team."

"Third, you can take this opportunity to give up your dependence on Fang Ge and muster the courage to resist and overcome your inner demons."

"If you still want to kill me after hearing these three reasons, then please do so. I will not resist."

After saying all this, Chu Xuan stood there calmly.

Is it possible that you are not a living person at all?
Fang Ge thought to himself.

The demon Zheng Zha hesitated, but finally he punched the air hard and said, "Damn it! If you had told me this earlier, it's not that I didn't trust the Central Continent Team. What I hate about you is that you don't consider other people's feelings at all when making plans!"

"It's all a scam and deception. Don't you have even the slightest bit of normal human thinking?"

"Uh... to be honest, we knew the general outline of the plan before we became ghosts."

Cheng Xiao, the devil, weakly raised his hand, "The colonel and we have secretly discussed this matter and explained the pros and cons..."

"Yeah, yeah, I'm terrified of dying. Both the Central Continent Team and the Demon Team know that very well."

The demon Luo Gandao nodded calmly, "If I hadn't known about the existence of the [Opening Gate], and if I didn't have the well-preserved souls of Uncle Mou Gang and Jun Zhongding as witnesses, I definitely wouldn't have dared to agree to such a plan."

"No, why do you have to say what you already know? Aren't you ashamed enough?" Luo Gandao shouted angrily, his neck bare.

Li Shuaixi, who had just managed to hold back his laughter, couldn't help but burst into tears.

"I can't tell you in advance, because only when we are truly 'dead' in your eyes can you maximize your will to live and have the greatest chance of overcoming your inner demons."

The demon Chu Xuan said calmly, "All of this can only be achieved without your complete knowledge, otherwise the benefits cannot be maximized... and you will hardly have another chance to overcome your inner demons."

Zheng Zha took a deep breath, then laughed angrily, "Fine! Fine! You all know! Only I don't know! Do you even see me as your captain anymore?!"

"To be honest... the captain of the Demon Team should be [this]."

As Fang Ge spoke, he handed out a glass of Reinhardt's Bloody Mary, gesturing for the demon Zheng Zha to moisten his throat. "Anyway, it's a happy ending now... as long as we resolve your negative points, that's all that matters."

The other person didn't stand on ceremony, downed the drink in one gulp, and let out a long sigh of relief, saying:
"Whether it's a scam or not... at least everyone still has a chance to come back to life, otherwise they would really be dead."

The process of fighting against the Zhongzhou team and Fang Ge was too desperate.

Neither the giant snake nor the white-haired swordsman made a move, yet they both had their heads blown off.

Suddenly, he shuddered and grabbed Fang Ge's shoulders tightly, crying, "Where's Lolita! What will happen to my Lolita! I died once! She won't die once too, will she!"

Even if he were to be resurrected along with him, he would still have died once!

"Don't worry, in a world where the [Ghost Realm] exists, physical death alone will not directly erase the creation of humans."

Fang Ge gestured for him to relax: "Entering the Ghost Realm doesn't mean you can't turn things around... If I use my silver tongue to persuade the Black and White Impermanence to collect Bai Yue's soul, wouldn't I be able to complete the mission just the same?"

"It's not impossible for a reincarnator to sneak out of the Ghost Realm and possess a mortal in Fengdu... For a certain system of reincarnators, it's not impossible. The main god will not arbitrarily deprive a reincarnator of their property before the coffin lid is nailed shut."

Hearing this, the demon Zheng Zha finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fang Ge's judgments about the main god have always been extremely accurate, even though no one knows where his information comes from.

Like Chu Xuan's "cost", Fang Ge's "intelligence" is also an information black box. It only knows that inputting requirements will output results, but has no idea what the process is.

"Of course, for this reason, you and Luo Gandao must return to the Main God Space as [Reincarnators]. Otherwise, the creation of humans will be annihilated."

Fang Ge gestured to everyone, indicating that the plan was about to move to the next step: "As for the others, they can totally 'steal chickens' (i.e., cheat).
