Rules of the Strange: I Became a God in a Bizarre World Through Taoist Arts

The Hetian jade pen hovered steadily in mid-air.

After the lightning struck, it seemed to subtly move within the pen, making the entire pen appear even more lustrous.

Heavenly thunder, the power of Yang, is the most suitable nourishment for this pen, which is specifically used to break formations.

Shen Xingzhuo's gaze was serious, and his attention was entirely focused on this matter.

The ghost story couldn't bear to see her still so thriving despite this deadly punishment.

It transformed into a wisp of wind and blew towards Xiuyi's face, using a very soft voice to coax him into doing something.

The chosen ones of Tianxia Kingdom are indeed very outstanding, aren't they?

Xiuyi's body stiffened, and her face darkened.

She stole all your thunder, and you're just going to watch?

Xiuyi's face was full of resentment, and she said indignantly, "What else can I do? Kill her?"

After these words were spoken, the ghost stories fell silent for a moment.

Even it didn't expect that, without even being guided, the man's jealousy had already generated murderous intent.

This is really...

It's so convenient!

The scalper behind the scenes smirked and waved his hand, clearing a path straight to the bottom of the well for Xiuyi.

Do you remember who you're playing right now?

"Liu Jin".

Xiuyi took a deep breath, her heart pounding violently in her chest.

He had a premonition that he would become king in this ghost story!

His blood was boiling, and his face flushed.

"You're going to help me?"

【right--】

The ghost story paused for a few seconds.

If you follow this path, you will see a dry well.

The well contains something precious to the chosen ones of the Tianxia Kingdom. I demand that you destroy it at all costs!

"What's in it for me?"

The ghost chuckled.

Can't you see that Liu Jin and Shen Xingzhuo are adversaries?

By destroying something she cherished, aren't you essentially ruining her path to victory?

It misrepresents the situation, claiming that it destroyed Shen Xingzhuo's path to clearing this supernatural tale.

But to Xiuyi, those words took on a different meaning.

He rarely used his brain—

He stubbornly believed that by destroying Shen Xingzhuo, he would become the first person to clear an SS-level supernatural tale.

"Okay! I'll do it right away!"

After saying that, he strode towards the shortcut that the ghost story had given him.

【this……】

The strange tales made him hesitate.

Since Shen Xingzhuo appeared, he hadn't been able to deceive a chosen one so easily in a long time.

Could this be a scam?

The more it thought about it, the more worried it became, realizing that it couldn't stop Shen Xingzhuo from using its punishment to refine weapons anyway.

He simply diverted a portion of his attention to Xiuyi.

……

Those watching the celestial canopy were now offering a variety of opinions.

Guan Shanyue delivered an important speech on behalf of the Tianxia Kingdom in the interstellar frequency band.

She didn't stand on moral high ground to accuse Xiuyi of taking a path that harmed others and herself for her own selfish desires.

Instead, it solemnly declared that it did not want Shen Xingzhuo to suffer any harm in the realm of ghost stories or anything outside of them due to elements of unfair competition!

The intention to protect the Tianxia Kingdom is very clear.

Upon seeing this, the national commander behind Xiuyi angrily smashed a corner of the command room to pieces.

He didn't even dare to lose his temper in public, for fear of seeing a comment mocking them for trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead.

He thought about it for a long time and came up with this foolish move.

"Surrender to the Tianxia Kingdom at all costs!"

They never imagined that Xiuyi had completely blocked their country's path.
