I'll Quit Being a God-Novel

Though Lu Heng's tone may appear easygoing, there is an unmistakable undertone of provocation in his words, which he doesn't bother to conceal.

Up ahead, the figure that bears an uncanny resemblance to the Great King Pingye fell into silence for a few moments before breaking into a smile and speaking, "You make a valid point. Please proceed, sir."

After finishing speaking, the other party turned around and walked away, showing no intention to engage further with Lu Heng.

However, in the next moment, that blind person with pale blue eyes appeared on the road in front of him, effectively blocking his path northward.

Under the scorching sun, this seemingly frail and delicate blind person wore a warm and radiant smile.

"Before we part ways, may I inquire about your distinguished name?" Lu Heng asked. "We seem to have quite a connection, so why not exchange names and establish a positive bond between us?"

The sudden obstruction by Lu Heng caused a slight sinking feeling in the heart of "Great King Pingye".

The blind person before his eyes could approach him within a radius of three meters in an instant, and he remained completely unaware… Does this not imply that if the other party so desires, they could decapitate him at any moment?

Aware of this fact, "Great King Pingye" dared not act arrogantly any longer and quickly bowed, saying, "As a humble wandering cultivator, I must show my respect to the esteemed senior from Ghost Valley. May I ask for your guidance in regard to the obstruction on the road? Although I bear the appearance of Great King Pingye, I have never harmed anyone nor am I a demonic entity. I sincerely hope this is known to the esteemed senior."

"Great King Pingye" obediently backed down, no longer daring to feign mystery.

Upon hearing this, the white dragon girl clicked her tongue and exclaimed, "Master, you truly possess the ability to quell any form of defiance… even the most audacious individuals dare not act insolently in your presence."

Saying these words, the white dragon girl looked up and down at the strong man in front of her, who looked exactly like the Great King Pingye. She inquired, "Pray tell, what manner of creature are you? From which remote place did you emerge? How is it that your existence has eluded me thus far? Where does your sect reside? How many family members do you have? How extensive is your land? Who is your master? Which school of cultivate do you follow? I implore you, have the sense to promptly introduce yourself, so as not to squander my precious time and that of my esteemed master."

The barrage of questions from the young girl left the robust man dumbfounded.

He glanced at the young girl in front of him, then at the blind man beside her, only to witness the enigmatic blind man smiling and saying, "What Little White said is exactly what I wanted to say… Please speak openly, for falsehoods won't go unnoticed by someone like me who is blind. Deceiving a blind man with lies may incur divine retribution."

The threatening undertone in the blind man's words was quite evident.

Therefore, the pressure in the robust man's heart grew even larger.

He inwardly lamented and complained incessantly.

How unfortunate am I, to have encountered such a jinx… When did such a character emerge in the Celestial Desolation Realm? And what is this Ghost Valley Divine Calculation… I have never even heard of it!

The robust man's face turned pale, but after a moment of hesitation, he quickly put on a smile and said, "Respected senior of Ghost Valley, my name is Ban Qi, and I come from the Fire Hating Country in the South Sea. This time, I have been following those four wicked demons with the intention of seizing an opportunity to eliminate evil forces, not as a follower of malevolent spirits. I request your discerning judgment, senior."

The robust man had a sincere expression on his face, despite his demonic appearance, yet there was no trace of demonic aura around him.

Lu Heng carefully scrutinized him and smiled, saying, "Indeed, there is no demonic aura. However, the South Sea Fire Hating Country? May I ask, Brother Ban, which sect of the South Sea Fire Hating Country do you belong to? Where is its main gate located? Throughout my life, I have sought to befriend heroes from all corners of the world, yet this is the first time I have encountered such a unique lineage as yours, Brother Ban. Hence, curiosity fills my heart, and I humbly request your guidance and enlightenment."

The probing of Lu Heng further unsettled the robust man, but he couldn't run away nor overpower him, so he had no choice but to muster up courage and speak.

"Respected senior, the sect to which I, Ban, belong is known as the Tianxin Sect. Our main gate is situated on the outskirts of the South Sea Fire Hating Country, near the Lava Mountain Range. Due to our small number of disciples, our sect doesn't possess much renown in the cultivation world. The majority of people have never heard of the Tianxin Sect, so it is understandable that you are unfamiliar with it, senior."

The robust man's words were sincere, and no matter how you looked at it, he didn't seem like a dishonest person telling lies.

Lu Heng chuckled and said, "The South Sea Fire Hating Country, the Lava Mountain Range… It seems quite far away. Brother Ban, you have followed this group of demons all the way to the Fire Pass Country on land, and it seems you even intend to join them in the revelry at the Arctic Skyark Palace? Truly daring and reckless. Please be aware, Brother Ban, that should a righteous cultivator like yourself fall into the clutches of these demons, you may very well become an additional meal for them on the spot."

Lu Heng said, "In my humble opinion, Brother Ban, it would be best for you to refrain from proceeding further north. It is too dangerous. How about this? Allow me to escort you back to your sect's main gate to seek guidance from your senior. I cannot bear to leave you wandering alone outside, as it truly concerns me."

The words of Lu Heng, delivered with a cheerful smile, seemed to be filled with the caring demeanor of an elder.

Ban Qi hesitated for a moment, but didn't reject the blind man's suggestion. Instead, he respectfully said, "Since that is the case, I would trouble you, senior, to take the trouble."

The cultivator, who traveled under the guise of a demon, was actually intending to take Lu Heng back to the mountain gate of the South Sea.

And when Lu Heng saw the other party's agreement, he nodded and said, "In that case, rather than picking a day, why not collide with the day? Let us depart now."

Speaking thus, Lu Heng stepped forward, and with a pale golden radiance, he lifted himself along with the three individuals present, soaring directly towards the south.

The speed of the radiance was so incredibly fast that it defied ordinary logic.

The burly man, who found himself within the radiance, became even more astonished.

He looked bewilderedly at Lu Heng by his side, feeling somewhat bewildered himself by the inexplicable speed of this radiance.

"Senior, your radiance…"

"Some swiftness, I know," said Lu Heng with a faint smile. "After years of arduous deduction, I have derived this escapade technique. Although it may not be unparalleled, it is just slightly faster than the fleeting technique of 'Floating Light and Fleeting Shadow'."

The words spoken by the blind man rendered the burly man completely speechless.

…only slightly faster than the fleeting radiance of 'Floating Light and Fleeting Shadow'.

Floating Light and Fleeting Shadow, that is the ultimate speed in the world! It is renowned as the absolute fastest escape technique known in existence.

But how could this enigmatic and unfathomable Ghost Valley Divine Calculation before my eyes defy this common perception?

This… the Celestial Desolation Realm, if there were such a character, it would be impossible for him not to have heard of it!The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the No(ᴠ)ᴇlFire.nᴇt

Unless the other party is also…

Ban Qi hesitated for a moment and said, "May I ask, esteemed senior, if you are aware of the prophecy of the Celestial Tilt?"

Ban Qi whispered a cryptic phrase.

The blind man cast a sideways glance at him and said, "You're quite clever… Is that some kind of secret code? I have no knowledge of it, nor have I ever heard of this prophecy of the Celestial Tilt. However, you may explain to me what exactly it entails."

The mysterious blind man relentlessly interrogated without giving any face.

However, Ban Qi showed no fear, but instead smiled and said, "Esteemed senior, you've misunderstood. This is not some secret code. The so-called prophecy of the Celestial Tilt is a legendary form of divination that possesses the potential to shake the very foundations of the heavens and earth. Even the most accomplished cultivators would find it arduous to calculate. I observed the incredible speed at which esteemed senior deduced the fleeting glimpses of light, and mistakenly believed that you were familiar with the prophecy."

Ban Qi explained as follows.

Lu Heng chuckled and said, "I see. I will remember that. The next time someone asks me what the prophecy of the Celestial Tilt is, I will give the answer according to your explanation. Hopefully, this answer is not something you made up."

Lu Heng smiled with a meaningful implication.
