I am Just a Wild God, Why are You Kneeling Before the Heavenly Dao?

119: Who has questions?Therefore, this Cuiliu definitely has a problem.

However, according to A Yue’s description, Cuiliu was assigned to him by his future father-in-law, Su Lie. So, the matter involves his future father-in-law as well.

Shen Jianxing didn’t dare to delve deeper for a moment.

But at this critical juncture, with the Nine Nether Heart-Eating Curse erupting and Lord Chuping appearing, any abnormality is worth scrutinizing.

Even if the truth might be extremely cruel, Shen Jianxing would not shy away from it.

A person with weak inner energy can never become strong in this life; only by facing the truth can one truly grow powerful.

Shen Jianxing’s eyes darkened slightly, and his fingertips unconsciously caressed the hilt of the sword at his waist.

Seeing his solemn expression, Su Mingyue couldn’t help but ask, ”Xingxing, what’s wrong?”

He snapped back to reality, a faint smile gracing his lips, his tone relaxed.

”Nothing, just thinking that Lord Chuping’s divine statue seems even more majestic than before.”

Su Mingyue didn’t doubt him and nodded slightly.

”Yes, the people of Qingzhou revere him, and with the flourishing incense, the divine statue naturally becomes more spiritual.”

Shen Jianxing’s smile didn’t reach his eyes; he just gently held her hand and whispered, ”A Yue, the wind has been strong these past few days. You’re frail, don’t catch a cold.”

Su Mingyue’s ear tips turned slightly red, and she softly hummed in response.

After the two left, Lin Chuping floated out from inside the divine statue, both he and the System wore expressions of eager spectators.

Lin Chuping leaned against the base of the divine statue, a handful of melon seeds appearing in his hand at some unknown point. He munched on them, sighing with admiration.

”Tsk tsk tsk, Shen Jianxing, this kid, his Luck is indeed quite good.”

Ancient and naturally beautiful women were incomparable to those artificially enhanced beauties from his previous life.

They had a special charm.

The air beside him twisted slightly, and a mechanized voice spoke: [Host, as the deity of this realm, isn’t it a bit inappropriate to meddle in the private affairs of mere Mortals?]

”System, I am showing concern for my believers. Observing the people’s feelings.”

”Host, do you have such thoughts? To enjoy yourself with a few ancient beauties?”

The System’s cold, mechanical voice actually carried a hint of lewdness.

”No, beauties are but withered bones. Becoming a god means a long lifespan; I won’t seek trouble for myself.”

This was Lin Chuping’s true thought. Ever since his Transmigration, with such a Heaven-Defying Opportunity to become a god, who would still be obsessed with matters of love?

For ordinary humans, finding a suitable woman, marrying, and having children is considered a great fortune in life.

But Lin Chuping felt that love was merely the completion of the task of species continuation under the influence of hormones.

Dopamine makes people happy, phenylethylamine makes them excited, vasopressin makes them loyal, serotonin makes them addicted, and finally, under the action of oxytocin, intimate acts are completed.

”System, I don’t have a body now. Can these hormones still be produced normally?”

[No.]

”Damn it, could it be that because I don’t have a physical body now, I don’t have physical desires either?!”

This possibility could not be ruled out.

However, this completely rational feeling, uninfluenced by hormones, was indeed quite good.

To hell with love.

[Host, have you ever been hurt by love?]

The System was a bit puzzled. The Host was now calmer than an enlightened monk, which was very strange.

”No, I’ve always been a single noble.”

Single nobles don’t need love.

”But speaking of which, Shen Jianxing, this kid, is quite perceptive. Cuiliu indeed has a problem.”

System: [Detecting abnormal energy fluctuations on Cuiliu, suspected to be controlled by a high-level Cultivator.]

”Oh? It seems Su Lie is not simple either.”

If this Cuiliu is controlled by Su Lie, then there will be a good show to watch.

Lin Chuping stroked his chin, a glimmer of interest flashing in his eyes, ”The drama of the old father-in-law beating up his son-in-law, how interesting, truly interesting.”

Did Cuiliu think that if she didn’t come to worship the deity, he wouldn’t be able to see her?

Simply naive.

As long as one entered Qingzhou, there were no secrets in his eyes.

”System, Su Lie has no reason to harm Shen Jianxing, does he?”

[He does. It could be due to evil spirits, or it could be for power.]

Alright, Lin Chuping sighed inwardly, he was too narrow-minded, always trying to find a motive for the crime. But in this world, the desire for power can be the motive for all evil.

As Lin Chuping spoke, he directed his Divine Sense towards Cuiliu. What he saw startled Lin Chuping himself.

”Holy crap.”

An expletive slipped out.

Cuiliu had no Luck!

This was a person without Luck?

Not white, not so thin as to be transparent, but completely absent.

What kind of person would have no Luck?

Lin Chuping could clearly feel that Cuiliu had a breath, a heartbeat, and body temperature. By all appearances, she was a normal person.

But why would she have no Luck?

As long as it was a living creature, from humans down to an ant, it had Luck.

Unless it wasn’t a living creature!

Thinking of this, a flash of inspiration struck Lin Chuping. Breathing, heartbeat, and body temperature—these external manifestations could all be imitated.

Only something as mystical as Luck was impossible to imitate.

Lin Chuping suddenly stood up, the melon seeds in his hand scattering across the floor.

His eyes shone with a golden light, his divine gaze piercing through Cuiliu’s outward appearance like a torch.

”System, initiate deep scan!”

[Scanning... Detecting no Three Ethereal Souls and Seven Corporeal Spirits fluctuations in the target’s body... Muscle tissue shows abnormal activity... Blood activity lost...]

[Based on the analysis, the subject is a Gu Puppet!]

Lin Chuping gritted his teeth, ”A perfect Puppet refined from a living person!”

It was simply against the laws of nature.

The process of refining a living person into a Puppet was extremely cruel. The System’s description filled two pages, detailing how the entire process required the subject to remain conscious, watching with their own eyes as the Gu worms entered their body through the seven orifices, devouring their internal organs, and finally, their abdomen would be cut open to place the Gu King into their heart.

Once refined, the Gu King would be connected to the refiner’s mind, becoming the most perfect Puppet.

And the soul of the refined person would be forever imprisoned within the shell, unable to live or die.

”System, find out who Cuiliu was before she died!”

Golden light flickered in Lin Chuping’s eyes, his voice suppressing anger.

The System’s screen scrolled rapidly: [Searching... Match complete... The target highly matches Liu Yeshu, the daughter of the Qingzhou pharmacist who disappeared three years ago...]

”Can we find the person who refined this Gu based on the Gu King?”

[Beyond jurisdiction, unable to query.]
