Becoming a god in a low-key way in the supernatural world

Xia Mushuren immediately slipped out and crawled into another tent.

He turned his head to look to the side.

The Corpse King Liuli had already wrapped herself in a blanket and lay down, her back to him, with her legs curled up.

He thought for a moment and said, "As we agreed before, I'll trouble you to lead the way to Bei Yujianzun tomorrow."

"Oh," the Corpse King Liuli responded.

Kotegawa raised his hand to lower the open tent flap, preparing to sit down and meditate.

The Corpse King Liuli rolled over, tilted her head to look at him, and asked in a questioning tone, "You keep running this way, is it really just to find someone?"

"Otherwise what?" Kotegawa asked without opening his eyes.

"What benefits did you receive?"

"I agreed to this, and I have to keep my promise," Kotegawa replied calmly. "Otherwise, even if you offered me a huge reward, I wouldn't have come to a place like this."

At home, he has a gentle girlfriend, delicious meals, and a comfortable bed. But here? There's only a bratty girl who makes his blood pressure spike every now and then!

"Tch... You're not that great!" Corpse King Liuli curled her lip: "You killed my mother's close attendants, ate their true spirits, and even made a lewd gesture towards me!"

“That’s the retribution they deserved.” Kotegawa said calmly, “The Demon King committed countless sins in the human world. Killing it only twice was already too lenient for it.”

"As for you..." He paused before saying, "Once we find Bei Yujianzun, we'll call it even."

"Hmph!" The Corpse King Liuli turned her back to him again, and after a long while, she finally managed to say, "Actually, the Underground Kingdom is very beautiful! You haven't been there yet! This princess can reluctantly show you around first!"

Kotegawa shook his head: "Thank you for your kindness, but I'd better not, time is too tight."

Bei Yujianzun only gave him one month, and now that he has finally found Xia Mushuren, he naturally has to hurry up and go find Him.

The Corpse King Liuli remained silent.

The tent fell silent again. Kotegawa closed his eyes and began to meditate.

Chapter 191 The Return Journey (Part 3)

When Kotegawa woke up from his meditation, it was still pouring rain outside, and the Corpse King Ruri was still fast asleep wrapped in a blanket next to him.

He lifted the tent flap, glanced at the dim sky outside, and got up to go outside.

The ice cover over the two tents still stood firmly, its surface smoothed by the rain, somewhat like transparent glass.

Standing under the ice cover, he moved his body slightly, feeling a bit hungry in his stomach. He was certain it was daytime now, but he was just unlucky to have encountered heavy rain.

After the activity, he took out a portable gas stove and pot, along with a bag of instant noodles, dehydrated vegetables, and a bag of eggs, preparing to cook noodles.

He'd wandered around here quite a bit these past few days, but hadn't come across anything edible. There might be something edible, but it wouldn't be for him; it would be for…

Corpse King Liuli yawned as she crawled out of the tent, rubbed her eyes, and squatted down in front of the pot. After sniffing around a few times, the lingering sleepiness was dispelled by the rumbling of her stomach.

"Gurgle."

The rumbling of my stomach came from the other side.

He and the Corpse King Liuli turned to look, and there was Xia Mushuren, who seemed to have just come out of the tent. He was covering his stomach with one hand and said with a slightly embarrassed tone, "Good morning."

The woman withdrew her gaze and silently looked at the pot, not wanting to speak much before eating.

Xia Mushuren stopped talking and walked over to squat down in front of the pot.

The three of them silently watched over the pot until the aroma grew stronger and stronger. Then, Kotekawa took out bowls and chopsticks and distributed them to everyone, so they could each take what they wanted.

The slurping sounds of noodles being slurped up and down filled the air; the more you ate, the more you wanted to eat, and the more you listened to it, the more you wanted to eat.

The breakfast was not over until there wasn't a single drop of soup left in the pot, cleaner than the three of them's faces.

Kotekawa smacked his lips, put the bowl in the pot, poured in some water, froze it with his true energy, and then threw it all into the Impermanence Domain.

I just finished eating and don't really want to wash the dishes right away.

Xia Mushu looked back and forth, his eyes filled with inquiry.

The Corpse King Liuli had already crawled back into her tent, intending to go back to sleep.

Kotegawa glanced at the sky again. With such heavy rain, it was clear that it wouldn't stop anytime soon. He said, "Let's rest first and wait for the rain to stop before we leave."

"Okay!" Xia Mushuren turned around and went back to the tent where he was sleeping without saying a word.

Kotegawa had just finished eating and didn't really want to go back to lie down. He found a camping chair, set it up, sat down, covered his legs with a thin blanket, leaned back slightly, and looked at the sky.

The dark clouds in the sky transformed into a pitch-black vortex, slowly rotating, with flashes of crimson lightning appearing and disappearing intermittently.

He stared blankly for three seconds, then suddenly sat up straight, clapped his hands, and the Impermanence Domain instantly activated, enveloping everything inside the ice shield. Then he returned to his original spot, closed the butterfly chair under his buttocks, tucked it under his arm, and suddenly transformed into clouds, flying towards the cave where Xia Mushu had been earlier.

"Boom!"

The thunder shook the air and the earth.

A thick, lightning-like snake suddenly struck down, and even in the rain, the ancient hand seemed to smell the scorching heat.

A loud bang came from behind him, and the ice cover that remained in place evaporated instantly.

Kotegawa really wanted to curse.

I could tolerate the rain, but why did it have to thunder?

What a lousy place! Even a dog wouldn't stay here!

The lightning bolt, as thick as a bucket, seemed to have eyes. If Kotegawa had turned around and looked up, he would have seen the vortex in the sky chasing right behind him.

The thunder rumbled louder and louder as Kotekawa, now transformed into mist, accelerated to the limit and darted into the cave. The last bolt of lightning struck the open ground outside the cave, blasting a large, charred crater.

Kotegawa watched as the large pit began to fill with rainwater, his face gradually darkening.

A dignified god, striking him with lightning—how undignified!

谷峲

He flickered in place for a moment, released the Corpse King Liuli, and stared at her with an uncertain expression.

The latter paused, then frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"

Kotegawa remained silent for a few seconds, then dismissed the idea of ​​carrying her out... This girl's defense was ridiculously high; she probably wouldn't be hurt even if she were struck by lightning, but he couldn't; his skin was still very delicate.

He looked outside and asked, "Which way should we go?"

Corpse King Liuli glanced at the dark sky outside and casually said, "It's only when the sky clears that you can tell which way is which."

Kotegawa was no longer willing to wait. He reached out, tucked her under his arm, and his true energy surged, transforming into a golden stream of light that shot straight into the sky.

He pierced through the dark clouds that had been filled with lightning and entered the world of light.

The Corpse King Liuli instantly grabbed him, her eyes wide as she exclaimed, "Are you crazy! You actually flew that high!"

Kotegawa let her cling to him like an octopus, and simply said, "Give me directions."

He didn't want to stay in this place for another minute. So what if he's a god? He was determined not to put up with this.

The Corpse King Liuli was speechless. As if standing on a cloud, she looked around and impatiently pointed to the right: "There!"

Kotegawa didn't speak, but a thunderous sound seemed to resound within him, and he flew towards the direction she pointed with the force of piercing through the clouds.

In the blink of an eye, the vast landscape was left behind. The dark clouds had disappeared, and sunlight, like beams of light, pierced through the clouds and fell upon the earth.

Kotegawa lowered his body slightly, glanced at the layered mountains below, and continued forward.

"Hey..." The Corpse King Liuli, hanging on his back, whispered in his ear, "You're not planning to fly to the God Kingdom today, are you? Let me tell you, it's still a long way off. Be careful not to fall down while you're flying."

Kotegawa's spirit trembled: "Approximately how far?"

"Who cares how far it is? Just fly! We'll talk about it when we see the gates of the divine kingdom!" Corpse King Liuli snorted.

Kotegawa stopped talking and focused his attention on getting on the road.

After most of the day had passed, the golden light descended. Kotekawa put her down, took out the tent, and also let Natsuki Shuren out for some fresh air. He picked up a bag of cooked beef and water and gave them some, then sat down to eat and drink himself, without saying a word from beginning to end.

Corpse King Liuli pursed her lips, tore open the bag, and began to eat.

As soon as Xia Mushuren came out with the beef, he sensed that something was wrong. He quietly looked around and wondered if the young couple had quarreled.

Unfortunately, he didn't dare to ask or speak, so he found a place to sit down and quietly ate.

Even now, he still believes that Kotegawa is just a master whom Senko invited to find him.

After finishing his meal, Kotegawa immediately went into his tent and began meditating to recover his strength.

The Corpse King Liuli, who was eating exceptionally slowly today, suddenly revealed an extremely frustrated expression in her eyes.

How can this guy change his attitude faster than she can eat? Weren't they just fine a moment ago?

"Rumble..."

A clap of thunder came from high above.

She and Xia Mushuren, who was still eating, subconsciously looked up and were shocked to find that the clear sky that had just been cloudless was now covered with thick dark clouds, with wisps of lightning moving among them, and large raindrops falling down.

They scrambled around in a flurry of activity and hurriedly crawled back into the tent.

An ice shield appeared instantly, blocking out the rain and cold air.

Kotegawa stared at the sky with a dark expression, gritted his teeth, and then looked at the Corpse King Ruri.

But it's clear that the latter is also confused.

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes again.

The Ghost Queen was deliberately trying to make things difficult for him, so he would remember this grudge. As for taking it out on her daughter, he would let it go. He believed that every wrong had its perpetrator and every debt its debtor, and he was not the kind of cowardly man who bullied the weak and feared the strong.

Chapter 192 The Return Journey (Part 4)

The torrential rain poured down for three days and three nights, soaking the entire world. Birds vanished from the mountains, and the grass and trees drooped, devoid of any life.

Halfway up the mountain, inside a newly opened cave, Furudegawa gazed at the misty fog outside, speechless for a long time.

He ran for three days, and lightning chased him for three days. Wherever he went, the dark cloud followed, showing no sign of stopping until it struck him once.

"Has the Queen of Ghostly Paths gone mad?"
