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

The gentle Liu Jin saw that Shen Xingzhuo had heard his hint, and his eyes lit up instantly.

Although he had been navigating through the strange tales as the chosen one, he had benefited from Shen Xingzhuo's influence and was able to leave "The Little Sister Carrying a Doll" early. He had also heard his commander talk about Shen Xingzhuo's amazing feats.

She can seemingly turn the tide in ghost stories with effortless ease.

Then... ensuring he doesn't fail shouldn't be a problem, right?

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He blinked, concealing the scheming in his eyes.

Before the frail-looking Liu Jin could stand up, she grabbed the hilt of the short knife and walked step by step toward the pig-headed Liu Jin who was bound by the servants.

"Pei Jinyu, you dare to let them kill me!?"

"Outside the ancestral hall, I'm the one in charge! Believe me, if I die, all of you lowly people will die!"

The pig-headed version of Liu Jin is still struggling in his death throes.

However, Shen Xingzhuo merely glanced at him indifferently and said in a flat tone:

"How could someone so impatient be the kind of man I, Pei Jinyu, have chosen?"

Pig-headed Liu Jin stared wide-eyed in disbelief as a short knife plunged deep into his heart.

Blood splattered, landing on the face of the gentler-looking Liu Jin.

The sweet, fishy smell in the air intensified, and Liu's mother, who had been suspended in the air, finally couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of black blood when she saw this scene.

Dark clouds pressed down from the horizon, with streaks of lightning flashing within them.

The voltage pressed heavily onto the ground, causing a few stray hairs to float up from each person's hair.

"What's going on?!"

"Jinyu, could we... have killed the wrong person?"

The gentle Liu Jin hesitated before shoving the dagger back into Shen Xingzhuo's hand, and even took a step to the side, thinking his movement was minimal.

"Sister Jinyu knows her husband best, how could she be wrong?"

Liu Jin, looking delicate and frail, rubbed the corner of her eye and moved closer to Shen Xingzhu with a fawning expression.

Shen Xingzhu sneered inwardly.

The two people next to me now seem to be chosen ones from other countries, and their intelligence is quite limited.

It was just a static electric field, yet it revealed their true thoughts.

As expected, none of them were the real Liu Jin.

Shen Xingzhuo tightened his grip on the knife hilt, but maintained a calm expression on his face.

He didn't answer the two men, but turned and walked towards the ancestral hall.

[Holy crap! What does Shen Xingzhuo mean by this? Even our country's Xiuyi brother is showing interest in her! What's she trying to do with that sour face?]

[Exactly, just because she has the Tianxia Kingdom behind her doesn't mean she's all that great! The Chosen Ones could meet at any moment. Believe me, if we all team up, we'll be the first to kill her!]

The chosen ones of our Tianxia Kingdom have no obligation to cooperate with you idiots!

Sister Shen is too kind-hearted; she even told them the answer to survival. What a pity! Those two are so brainless, nobody wanted them, and they didn't understand a thing! (sarcasm.gif)

【Oh dear, what's the point of telling them all this? The ghost story tells of the Holy Father being killed first; let them see for themselves.】

In the live chat outside, the citizens of Tianxia once again went all out to defend the position of their chosen ones.

Shen Xingzhuo, who was inside, had only taken a few steps when she heard the strange tale's question.

Please, chosen one of the Heavenly Xia Kingdom, explain in detail the reasons for your judgment that the "deceased" is a fake Liu Jin!

You may proceed to the Pei Family Ancestral Hall only after your answer has been verified!
